(wrong, wrong, wrong)
(air burns in their lungs)
(as if they cannot breathe)
(something is stealing their breath)
(deep breaths chase the feeling away some)
(keep running)

It's like the air around them is nothing but acrid smoke, burning their lungs, their throat -- Alexis doesn't know what that feels like, has no reason to know what that feels like, but somehow they know it anyways, painful as anything.
There's no time to feel the pain, to claw at their throat and get it out -
Alexis keeps running as fast as they can, one foot after another, desperately trying for breath before the world starts to blur.

(everything lightens)
(breath on the back of their neck)
(prey)
(hunt)
(run prey run)
(just when they will be caught)
(the world brightens)
(the rain is gone)
(the streets of ashdown greet them)
(the feelings are gone)

Alexis -- breathes.
Alexis, very resolutely, does not think about Autumn Smith, lost somewhere in Other Ashdown. They don't throw up. They don't do anything but breathe.
They sit down in a corner (sit? more like stumble, more like their momentum nearly carries them face-first into the bricks and then their legs give out three steps away), arms tight around their drawn-up knees and fisted in their hair, and try so desperately to breathe even though it's easy now -
breathe.
Just
breathe.Ashdown Whaler will have the 500 words for the next step of the quest up sometime w/in the next 12 hours, probably smile thank you!
