[Today, Cass is dressed like a normal person. She's sitting in the cafeteria with a mug of tea, perched in a chair with her knees drawn up to her chest and her oversized sweater pulled over them so she's just a blob of blue fabric with arms. Even the hood is up. With her chin on her knees and her eyes on the tea, she speaks to the comm quietly.]

Had all the words. Could make them, if I wanted. Could write. Talked normal. Was normal.

Couldn't see bodies talking. Didn't need. [Her fist comes up to rub at her temple.] Makes headaches, now.

Does that... happen a lot? Was confusing. Was not fun.

Comments

[She nods, and then gives him the tiniest of smiles. This is why she likes him, why teaming up with him had been good. He understands her. He doesn't judge, not anymore at least. He just lets her be herself.]

Will find way... to say thanks.

[peektuttut]

[He just smiles a little at that, and shakes his head.]

You don't have to.

[hellofist]

I know. Will anyway.

Mmmm... flowers?

[That's what people do to say thank you right?]

[peektuttut]

[Well that gets a chuckle.]

Sure. You could get some in the CES. [Wait Ivy's probably there. :|] But you really don't have to.

[hellofist]

[There, that's better. When he laughs it makes her feel better, so she smiles back and gives him a resolute nod.]

Will. Favorite color?

[peektuttut]

Red. [There, have a wry smile too. He has no idea what he'll do with flowers, but seeing her happier is worth it.]

[hellofist]

Rose? Had one, in Bludhaven. Left with Brenda.

[She's just going to pretend it's not a decomposing pile of ashes now, thanks.]

[peektuttut]

[And he's taking that cue and ignoring the potential D: of it all.]

Sure. I like roses.
