Then you let it fall behind
And in the back of your mind
You feel my loving shine
You think you might be saved.
Rob Thomas - "Fallin' To Pieces"
As the night wore on in relative quiet, Alex finally broke the silence as dawn creeped a little closer. "You're being quiet."
Yes. I thought you might want to be left alone, is all, and if you didn't, you'd say something.
"Well, I just did." She stood after the long time of sitting, heading for the window-less lavender room she slept in. Dinah took notice and skittered to follow her, just shy of being underfoot and a tripping hazard.
So you did. Are you feeling better now?
"I..think so, yeah." The vampire closed the door behind her, shutting away any danger that might come with dawn. To be truthful, she didn't know just how much of a dawn - or even of a sun - there was anymore, with Destruction's darkness growing. For all she knew, she might even be safe out there, whatever the hour; she did not, however, care to find out the hard way that she still shouldn't be out during the day.
Good. I'm glad Orin came by. Though he didn't say as much, the god was hoping that it would mean the end of that stream of nights she'd turned into a blur of all the things she'd gotten so good at doing in the past five years of her life - things she'd spent this past week or so doing in such extremes that if she weren't undead as she was would very likely have killed her. As it was, the drinking did make her sick.
"I know, I needed it," she confessed. Alex set about making her little nest on the floor while Rio thought, having found that she was more comfortable there after years of the same. This being grass, though, it was much better than all the basement floors she'd gotten so used to.
You could have just gone to see him, you know.
"I could have..." She paused in the fluffing of her pillow. "But I...I guess I wasn't thinking like that. I don't always do as much thinking as I should. Still, it was better this way, with just Orin and no one else around."
I thought Ea was your friend, too?
"He is my friend, but he is a god. Orin's just another person, like me. Well, maybe not just another person," she amended, "But you get what I mean."
And he's furry instead of being a tree, so you think he's cuddly.
"...Maybe. And you can shut up now, I'm going to sleep." It put a convenient end to the conversation.
