When: After Lizzy leaves the hospital

What: Lizzy visits the injured

Seeing Winifred still had the blonde witch a little thrown off her game. She was normally bright and bubbly and she had been that way when she had entered the hospital room. But the second she saw the machines and how frail the other witch looked in that bed, it was like she'd hit a wall of reality and she was forced to stop and take it in. People had died in that bombing. Winifred could have died. Lotti could have died. It was something that shook her to her very core and she wished she had her familiar with her, not for protection, but for comfort. That was, after all, what she was supposed to be doing by visiting her friends, right?

Lotti's mother let her in and she looked like she was fretting over the injuries in her family. She wasn't surprised by this at all, especially after Lotti's texts about her mother hovering and worrying. If Lizzy were in her shoes, she would have been as well. She found her friend on the couch and she plopped down next to her, glad to see it was only really the cast that was her glaring injury. It made her feel a little more at ease. "So first demons and now random bombers... What is up with the world?" she said, trying to come off light hearted but sounding more concerned than anything else.

( Winifred didn't like that they'd stuck an IV into her arm... )

Who: Lizzy and OPEN
Where: The park
When: Mid-afternoon
What: She's writing in her journal... got a lot on her mind.

She paused and bit her pen as she leaned back against the tree. The idea of figuring out what she wanted to do with the rest of her life was kind of daunting. Lizzy stared at her journal and tapped her pen against the pages. There had to be some kind of decision she could come to. The idea of only knowing how many things she liked and what she could possibly do but not really coming to a conclusion was frustrating. Her career didn't have to be picked out right then and there but she had to make some decision. There was a loud, childish giggle and she looked up, watching a mother with her son, tickling him on a picnic blanket. That was cute and it made her smile.

And it made her realize something. Her pen started to fly over the page as she thought about love and one day, one day far, far away, having a family of her own. Lizzy was an idealist and a hopeless romantic. She would have sat there all day, writing about love, about how much she wanted it but she forced herself to stop and look up. It wouldn't do her any good to get wrapped up in daydreams when she had enough serious things to think about. It didn't mean, however, that she really stopped thinking about someone coming in and sweeping her off her feet. Anora flew down from the tree branch she'd been perched on to the witch's shoulder, chirping sweetly.

'What is troubling you?'

"Life. Why do I have to make so many decisions? I'm only eighteen and barely that. How should I know what I want to do with the rest of my life? What do I want to be? Where do I want to be? Picking classes was hard enough and they were practically chosen for me since they're all gen ed classes. Ugh!" The last noise was louder than she intended, likely drawing some attention but she closed her eyes and leaned back against the tree, feeling like she was getting absolutely no where.

Who: Isaiah, Winifred, and Lizzy

( And if you don't believe me, just put your hands on me. )
