Moving in with EZEKIEL?!

(Ezekiel tries again to wake Lynnon up. This time around, he shakes her a small bit, not trying to be too rough with her. She wakes up and flinches, almost hitting Ezekiel but he was lucky that it was a slow flinch. He held her fist and slowly pushes it down)

Lynnon-" Ugh. What do you want"

Ezekiel-" Hey. Don't get annoyed with me, I'm only trying to help you... Let's go bear"

Lynnon-" Bear?"

(Ezekiel chuckles)

Ezekiel-" It fits you"

(Lynnon rolls her eyes)

Lynnon-" Whatever"

(Lynnon rubs her face in the effect of a headache. Ezekiel helps her up)

Ezekiel-" Now just try to be in the car with me for at least 10 minutes so that I can bring you home"

(Lynnon snaps)

Lynnon-" What?"

Ezekiel-" Mei's been worried about you ya know. You can't just stay here and avoid your team. They're the whole reason you're here"

Lynnon-" I'm not. I just need some time ok? I just don't want to go back there. If you've seen it, you have to agree it's the messiest place in Tokyo. I can't live like that"

(Ezekiel sighs)

Ezekiel-" I agree..."

Lynnon-" I'd much rather sleep here than go back. Though I hate it almost as much"

(Ezekiel thinks as Lynnon packs up the art she had finished)

Ezekiel-" Ugh I'm gonna regret this..."

(Lynnon looks back at him in confusion)

Ezekiel-" Because you're my sister's friend... I offer you a deal. I will allow you to stay at my place WITH RULES IMPLIED if you let me use you for something"

(Lynnon immediately thinks of the worst thing she could and Ezekiel could tell)

Ezekiel-" Get your mind out the gutter! I have something to do for work that requires your... aesthetic. I will let you live with me until you gather up enough money to buy your own place. All you have to do is follow some simple rules and allow me to use you as inspiration"

Lynnon-" You BARELY know me stupid. How naive are you?"

Ezekiel-" Trust me, I'm not. I've put everything into consideration here"

Lynnon-" I don't know~"

(Ezekiel abruptly, in a way, pins Lynnon against the wall)

Ezekiel-" It's your choice. I'm not making you do anything. I'm only trying to be generous towards you"

(Ezekiel squeezes her nose)

Ezekiel-" And if you want to, could you make it quick? It's past midnight if you couldn't tell"

(Lynnon rubs her nose)

Lynnon-" Ok ok! I'll go"

Ezekiel-" Then get all your stuff and let's go"

(Ezekiel walks over to his things, not even lifting a finger to help Lynnon. They get outside and reach Ezekiel's car. He puts his things down in the back before Lynnon could fully get there. He looks back and sees her struggling a bit. He walks back to her)

Ezekiel-" Go get in"

(Ezekiel put his hands out, ready to carry everything Lynnon was)

Lynnon-" No. I don't want you messing up my stuff by accidentally dropping it or something"

Ezekiel-" Hello? I'm the same way with my pictures and camera. Nothing will happen. Promise"

(Lynnon sighs and hands over all her stuff)

Lynnon-"...Thanks"

(Ezekiel begins carefully placing her art in the back along with his camera and work)

Ezekiel-" It's no big deal. Just sit down so we could go"

Lynnon-" hmph. I take my thank you back"

(Ezekiel freezes and looks in her direction but she had already begun to get into the passenger seat)

Ezekiel-" This girl..."

(Ezekiel shuts the door, walks around, gets into the car, and begins to drive to his apartment. They arrive and they bring their stuff up to the apartment though Ezekiel ended up holding half of Lynnon's paintings along with his own things. Lynnon takes the key from him and opens the door herself)

Lynnon-" Woah. You rich rich huh?"

(Ezekiel rolls his eyes)

Ezekiel-" I wouldn't want that to be the only thing you see me as-"

(Ezekiel walks in)

Ezekiel-"-but at the same time, I don't really care what you think"

(Ezekiel smirks as Lynnon stands annoyed)

Ezekiel-" Follow me"

(Ezekiel takes Lynnon to his studio. Though he didn't have much equipment, he had dozens of photographs all over the walls)

Ezekiel-" I guess this is ours to share now..."

(Ezekiel moves some stuff before placing down the art he was holding on the left side of the big room)

Ezekiel-" First rule. DON'T come to my side of the studio. My work is just as important as yours is to you so NO TOUCHING"

(Lynnon places the paintings she was holding next to where Ezekiel had put the others. Afterward, she follows him out and he walks her to the guest room)

Ezekiel-" Now with the rest of the rules. No being loud-"

Lynnon-" mhm?"

Ezekiel-" If you make a mess, clean it up or just don't make a mess at all-"

Lynnon-" How many rules are there again?"

Ezekiel-" SHH! No interrupting me when I'm talking"

Lynnon-" Ugh~"

Ezekiel-" And you HAVE to let me use you as inspiration. That should be obvious"

Lynnon-" Ok ok GOT IT!"

(Ezekiel begins to walk out of the room)

Ezekiel-" No being loud"
