Ugh.
The cheer in the other's voice made her muzzle scrunch up slightly, she was uncertain how to feel about everything right now aside the fact she was completely miserable and heartbroken, the tavern being one of her least favorite places to be. She only ever made a few exceptions for people when coming here even then she always felt uncomfortable but now, all she felt was like she was mocking herself and just letting herself hurt more than what she already had these past few months. The temptation for alcohol was strong, she wanted to drown herself on the strongest drink they had yet... She knew she shouldn't, she couldn't even imagine herself being drunk and coming back home to her children. She hated the smell and taste of it yet... It made her mind buzz pleasurably and everything was a drunken blur, she would only end up waking from a hangover feeling shittier than before she had drank. She let out a soft groan with her chin resting on the wooden counter watching as glasses of alcohol slid past her, a soft growl leaving her throat finally finding a stable enough voice to speak with "I guess... I guess it is," Her pupils narrowed into dangerous slits with ears twitching, she could hear the Piña colada song playing within the building. Now, it tempted her... She wanted a piña colada... Maybe she'd get the virgin... Just something aside from water.
She finally lifted a claw clicking it onto the counter catching the tavernkeepers eye only to raise her nonexistent eyebrows at them, soon the drink of her choice was brought over to her "Thanks doll," Roxie would mumble out to them turning her attention to Aphra once more, her whiskers twitched briefly only to listen to what Aphra was saying to her. A tired sigh leaving her slightly parted jaws and she stared at the feline through half closed eyes for a moment "This place doesn't exactly help. It keeps reminding me of... him," She would snort pulling her drink close only to stare at it for a moment not drinking it even if she had asked for the drink. Hearing the next thing made her growl in agreement "I know it ain't... Jus... Real heartbroken at the time, I'll move on..." Even if there was doubt within her mind, she would make the effort to move on from Greed for her cubs, family, Michael, and... Herself. She had gone two years without him plus these past few months, she was sure that she could very well get over it. She just needed some time... Especially with Natyli and Trygve being reminders of someone she had loved, someone who had been dear to her and he had been her object of affection. Now it had been torn away. It was neither of the cubs fault for resembling their father, she wouldn't love them any less. She would just love them more. She'd love all her children until her last breath.
She wondered if the other guy she had liked in the past would've done the same to her as Greed had, she shook her head knowing that Slys would never hurt her so badly. Michael, her adopted brother, had been such a help these few months and it made Roxanne feel horrid that he had seen her so broken laying on the beach. Now, she was wallowing in self pity with someone she detested, someone she had been afraid of losing Greed or Slys to but neither were here and Roxanne didn't have much to gain or lose now. Roxanne had agreed to come with Aphra to the tavern, she still wasn't certain as to why she had done so though she figured that a girls night out had sounded tempting... Almost comforting in a way. Finally, she would grumble "I could've..." Her mind buzzed with several thoughts, she hoped she wouldn't make anymore mistakes tonight. That was the last thing she needed right now, the last thing she needed was to pull a Pincher tonight. An amused snort left her at that thought, her gaze softening in that moment "Didn't think a coldhearted bitch like you cared..." Roxanne said in a murmur locking her mismatched gaze with Aphra's, she found a smile on her maw as she saying with a huff "I appreciate it nonetheless... I think I'd like to keep... doing girls night," It brought her comfort in a sense, she didn't need to worry about Michael or Goldie having to deal with her constant bullshit. This... This was different.
And Roxanne Roux welcomed it. [glow=COLOR,1,400] ━ ✧*:･ﾟ[/glow]
