"What kind of friend would I be if I didn't at least offer to help, right?" she said, leaning into him a little. Yes. He was there. He was real.
"Tommy mentioned something about things going bad when the sun goes down. I don't know what he was getting at, but there's more to his story than he's willing to share with anyone. Well, more than he's willing to share with a girl he's just met at any rate." Potentially because if it was really bad, Roxie would've had the Avengers on him in a New York minute.
"Interesting? Well." She cleared her throat. There was one other thing she needed to warn Joe about.
"My brother is here. Alex. Well, he prefers that most people call him Alexander." It was funny, she realized. Out of all of Ares' offspring, Alex was the only one she ever called brother. "He's in one of the other spare bedrooms here." Pause. "He might...be a little overprotective about me." Mostly because he was all too aware as to Roxie's feelings for Joe. "But don't worry. He won't, you know, punch you into Hades or whatever."
