For Sharon

[firstcylon]

Zoe is aching all over. Her pride has long since stopped taking hits whenever Logan kicked her ass, but her body doesn't appreciate it any more, and she is getting so tired of the little extra something he puts into it, since Tombstone.

So after she takes a shower and slips into one of her usual, almost-too-short dresses, she spends three minutes getting decent alcohol out of the replicator before she heads over to Sharon's quarters. "It's Zoe, open up," she calls out from the other side of the door, and when Sharon does, Zoe walks in and sets the bottle down on the table.

"I'm so tired of Logan's patronizing attitude and I got decent alcohol out of the replicator," she states, watching her friend expectantly. "You got any plans?" Beside 'getting drunk and bitching about men with Zoe', obviously.

Now Sharon's kind of irritated, because she didn't really expect that from Zoe. She seems like such a tough chick most of the time.

"Come on. People show up, disappear, die and re-appear without their memories? I couldn't live with it. What the hell's the point?"

"What's the point of friendship?" Zoe asks, somewhat wryly. "What's the point of anything? God doesn't mean for us to survive. He means for us to live, and frak anybody who tries and takes that away from us."

She's so used not to speak of God, because of the world she grew up in (didn't, really, but remembers she did), but the alcohol is starting to hit, and she trusts Sharon not to be a bigot, and respect her beliefs whatever they might be. In any case, she has to know if they can really be friends, because friendship does matter - that's how she rationalizes it.
