Let’s Get Drunk

Alyx wandered out of her room, hands balled up in the front pockets of her jeans. She had her mini backpack on, and was ready to head out. She knew El didn’t have a room at the base, but he spent most of his time here, and Alyx walked into the common area hoping to find him. 

Sure enough, when she entered the room she saw him on a chair in the corner, typing on his computer. She made a beeline for him. 

“Hey,” Alyx said. “What’s up?”

Welcome To LA

After El dropped her at her room, Alyx sat on the bed. It wasn’t bad, and there was something resembling a nightstand. She considered putting her mini backpack there and leaving it, but thought it’d probably be best to keep it with her. Sighing, she stood back up and whipped out the pocket knife she kept in her jeans. She crossed the room and, after glancing to make sure the hallway was still empty, Alyx cut a small triangle in the wood below the doorknob so she’d remember which room was hers. 

After wiping off the shavings, she twirled the pocket knife and shoved it back in her front right pocket and left, closing the door behind her. Alyx wandered the building until she finally found what looked like the general living area, thanks to the couches and TV. There were a few people scattered around, and Alyx walked slowly into the room, trying not to look awkward.
