"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.
