LIBBS
Sunjata probably had seen may things of Libbs at this point.
He had probably seen her laugh. He may have seen her sad. He may have even caught her in the mists of her reflections, fighting with the demons she doesn't talk about, nor would she admit to having. All of these are very possible, as Libbs' heart is worn on her sleeves. But he had never, ever, ever seen her like this.
She was not aware that Harper had entered the bar. Let alone, that Harper was anywhere nearby. And upon hearing his chirp from across the bar, Libbs stiffened like a corpse going into rigor mortis, ice crawling up her veins, eyes wide underneath her bangs. Her hands gripped type on that glass- threatening to shatter the alcohol onto the table. Her lips pushed into a discerning frown. Oh no. She was not okay with this. She was not okay with this at all.
Not that she had any issue with Harper per say; but Harper- Harper was a whole slew of things. Uncomfortable things. The big reason? Because from the corner of her sable gaze, she could catch the light in his lovely blue eyes, the radiant smile, her gut wrenched. And she turned to face Sunjata with a horrid look in her eyes. Because she had not told him about Harper's.. fascination with her. And all she could hope for was for him to help her in her time of need.
Without a single word. A single motion towards Harper at all. Libbs got out of the chair, somehow pulled herself onto the bar, swung both legs behind it, and joined Sunjata behind the bar, in one swift movement. The most graceful the woman had ever been. And once there, she kneeled behind it. "Make him go away." she whispered to him.
