A/N: This is another one in my series of one-shots Alex Made Me Do It. This is a sequel of sorts to "It's a present for my friend, you see..." but it can totally be read separately. There are only a few details at the end that might not be that understandable. It's (probably) (very) OOC, but then again, it's supposed to be a crack fic. Hope you like it!
Shopping the Ship.
Monroe wasn't used to people appearing in his house.
In fact, he just wasn't used to people appearing, materializing from out of nowhere.
People he'd never seen before.
"Hi!" The girl said. "Can I have two seconds before I explain why I randomly appeared in your living room?"
"Uh... Sure."
There was an awkward pause before she spoke again. "Right, sorry. Still getting used to this thing." She tapped her wrist-strap.
"What's that?"
"This?" She held it up. "A dimension cannon." She waved it off. "Is Rosalee here?"
"She's on her way. Do you two know each other?"
The girl hesitated. "Sort of. I know her but she doesn't know me."
"So... You're like... A stalker?"
"No. Weeeeell, sort of. I mean, depends on how you put it. It's... Complicated." She paused. "I'll explain it when she gets here."
"Uh huh."
Two minutes later, Rosalee was there and the girl had explained who she was and why she was there. Something that involved her losing a poker game and having to pay.
But she wasn't asking for money.
All Monroe understood was that they had to go with her.
She tapped her wrist-strap again and some sort of blue swirling portal appeared on the wall.
"I love this feature," the girl said to no one in particular. Then she turned to he and Rosalee. "Off you go, then!"
Monroe and Rosalee had no idea what they were walking into, but they did anyway.
"Did you get them?" Alex asked.
"Yep. Alex, say hello to Monroe and Rosalee. Monroe, Rosalee, say hello to Alex."
"Hiiiiiiiiiii!" Alex grinned and waved happily.
"Hi." Rosalee waved back, awkwardly.
"Hello." Monroe did the same.
"Where's Morgana?" Eira asked.
"Watching Supernatural. She watched the entire season five yesterday. I think she's watching The French Mistake right now."
"Oh! I'm gonna join her. Bye!" She ran to join Morgana, leaving Alex, Monroe and Rosalee alone.
"Well..." Alex started.
"Well..." Monroe repeated.
"Well..." So did Rosalee.
Well, this was a bit awkward.
