Lyssa was bored.

Incredibly so, and not the kind of bored that was easily remedied. The solution she sought was to wander the halls of her home, or maybe head for the kitchen. She was still in the process of deciding when she left her room. Pulling her hair up into a ponytail, she groaned softly. God, she needed something to do.

[ horrendous and late ]

[ better than mine~ ]

"Oh!"

To say she nearly jumped right out of her skin at Charlie's sudden appearance would have been an understatement. Lyssa wasn't very good with surprises, which was why she tended to stray away from the latest horror flicks with a passion. But, now that Charlie was here, she might have had something to do. Her look of surprise shifted into that of pleasantry.

"S'okay," she dismissed, "How was your day?"

Lyssa found it admirable how hard Charlie worked. She wished she could work half as hard he did, but she could understand the reasoning behind why he had to put in more effort. What she didn't understand was his lack of breaks, because everyone needs a break. And she supposed that right about now would be a good one for him.

"It was okay; kind of boring," she answered, waving a hand dismissively before sticking out both hands, "You need to slow it down for a second. Gimme the books and let's get a snack." She smiled brightly, hoping that the thought of food would be compelling enough. "Maybe pop in a movie or check if Netflix updated anything?"
