It has been - a few days. There are long silent snuggles with Kas. There are tentative chats with Helen, which go encouragingly. There are difficult and uncomfortably revelatory conversations with her parents. There are heaps and heaps and heaps of things to catch up on, read, check, look into, so she can regroup, reappear, resume work.
She hasn't slept with Kas since coming home. She loves him, and she'll be feeling like it eventually, but not right away.
She's sort of restless after a few days of not having sex, though. Let's see. There's a couple new Jokers she hasn't tried, although one is not shaped in an Amariah-amenable way. And maybe that's a little too close to what she's waiting on, anyway.
Pattern's boyfriend isn't a Joker and is amenable to being loaned out, she has heard.

"Pattern's boyfriend is a younger and more interesting Rupert? I need to get out more," he says, snuggling her.

"Goes by Ripper, wrote her a pretty imperial anthem, rock star, tastes like peaches," says Amariah. "I borrowed him, then swept Alethia and found one here."

"Yeah, both Rippers and the local's best friend are presumably having sex now."
dark_light
"Yeah, do. I'm not interested in the best friend, but the Rippers are cute."

"I love you too." Snuggle. "Ripper wanted to make sure you wouldn't mind, about the borrowing, I said you wouldn't - right?"
