"And that turns you off?" Rosen clarified.

Missy gave Rosen a 'duh' face.

Rosen grinned, suddenly wrapping Missy in a big hug, "Thank you!" he replied loudly and happily.

"Get off me," Missy said, still very much repulsed.

Rosen did but stayed near her, "You have no idea how tiring it is to have everyone turned on my you!" he informed her with a sigh.

"Go away," Missy told him after a small shiver. "You're freaking me out."

"But you're the only one I can talk with," he whined.

"I'm busy," Missy replied. "Go talk to your new pet, Long."

"He's not a pet..." Rosen muttered, getting sad again, "And he started to lust after me to..."

"If you want people to stop lusting after you, stop showing off your body," Missy suggested as she got back to work. "You're kinda asking for it running around without your shirt and pants."

Rosen blinked like he'd never thought of that before. "But I've never worn a shirt and pants regularly... ever."

"Hence, everyone wants you," Missy concluded before becoming absorbed in the computer again and ignoring Rosen.

Rosen blinked again before slowly standing and walking out of the room.

Missy didn't say goodbye since she was focused on the computer.

Rosen went to James's room and started to dig around.

James smiled at Yue, "Maybe we can use the system in my room to-" James' voice trailed off as he walked into his room to find it an absolute mess. He wasn't totally clean typically but this was a disaster zone.

Yue was silent for a moment as she took in the scene before asking, "You piss off Tulip or something?"

James cussed a little as there was a noise from his walk-in closet. He stormed over there and unearthed... a creature. "Hi!" Rosen's muffled voice came from under a scarf. James blinked at the overly bundled Rosen, not a patch of skin was showing. "Uh... Rosen?"

"No, it's not," Yue said, not believing James even though it sure sounded like him.

James paused, just as shocked as Yue. Slowly he reached out and pulled the ski mask off of Rosen's face, revealing Rosen's eyes, "Sure is hot in clothing..." his muffled voice noted.

"... Hey Rosen," Yue said after a few moments. "What'cha doing?"

"Hiding my charm," Rosen replied a little sadly. James looked confused.

Yue also looked confused. "... Why are you hiding in James' closet?" she asked.

"Just borrowing some clothes," Rosen explained.

James frowned, "You don't borrow you steal!"

"C'mon!" He whined, "I don't have any clothes!

Yue seemed to think Rosen had a point, but she strategically stayed on James' side.

James sighed a little, "Where did this idea come from?" he asked as if used to brainless ideas from Rosen.

"I'm too sexy to stay naked all the time," Rosen grinned.

James smacked the side of his head, "Real reason," he ordered.

"That is the r-" James grabbed his nose.

"Othay... othay... juth let go!" James let go. "... Long threw himself at me... and I just wanna be friends with him..." Rosen answered truthfully... surprisingly. And again, James and shocked speechless.

Yue was also shocked speechless for many reasons. After a long time, she almost said something, but decided against it.

Rosen huffed a little from under all that clothing and James sighed, "You sure have a funny way of thinking," he informed him. James was sure one of talk...

Yue was still in shock. After another moment she stuttered, "L-Long?"

Rosen nodded before glancing away.

Yue was silent for a long time before asking, "Did you let him?"

Rosen turned and glared at Yue, "I'm not as sex driven as everyone seems to believe," he spat. James looked taken aback at the attitude.

Yue also seemed taken aback. After a moment she noted, "Honestly I'm more curious about him than you," she replied.

Rosen shrugged slightly, "He wanted to do it and then pretend it didn't happen. Which is what I normally do I guess... but not with people who have been abused. I didn't even think he liked me and then boom, he was all over me."

Yue glanced at James. That was some withdrawal symptom. She pulled out the copy of the blood work Zala had given her.

Rosen yawned a little bit, "Do you know what drug Sheng had him on?" he asked, glancing at the blood work.

Yue shook her head as she glanced through, stopping at the testosterone levels. "... Whoa..." was all she had to say.

Rosen and James both leaned in, "What?" they asked in unison.

"Frankly, it's a wonder he differentiated between Rosen and a pillow," Yue muttered after a moment. "His suppression training has really paid off..."

Rosen suddenly turned on Yue, "Suppression training?" he demanded an explaintion.

"Uh..." Yue muttered. "... To suppress... sexual urges."
