WHO: Claire Saunders and Stephen Hart.
WHAT: Meeting the new flatmate and coffee.
WHEN: Shortly after this.
WHERE: Apartment 110D.
RATING: Likely not very high.
STATUS: In progress.

Claire had never wanted anything so much as she had wanted to escape the Dollhouse, the hell she'd lived in for so long. They had put her back in her body, but it wasn't really hers she supposed, after what had happened, and filled her in on what she had missed. She felt sick inside with the knowledge of what she had done, of what they had done to her. It filled her with a physical ache to look at Topher and know what she had put him through. What Clyde had put him through using her body. She had been violated in the worst way, her mind shoved aside and her body used as a shell. Her Original Personality was gone, so it really was her body now, as much as it would ever be. As if that meant anything really.

She hated them all, and she had desperately wanted to leave and never come back. But the reality of finding herself elsewhere was overwhelming, and she'd sat on the library steps for almost an hour before she'd thought to use her PDA. She'd never done well outside the Dollhouse. Being outside made her nervous, and people made her panic. Stephen was helpful and his directions gave her something to focus on. She had followed his instructions, and eventually made her way to the apartment building where she was meant to live. She found the door labeled 110D and nearly knocked before remembering it was her home too. She opened the door, looking around anxiously, almost wishing something had come up to make him leave. "H-hello," she said hesitantly. She still wasn't quite in a place of trusting people.

"That sounds nice," Claire said with a small smile. "I started off in research, before..." The words felt wrong on her tongue, even though it was what she remembered. "I was seconded as well...in a sense. They needed a doctor, and that's what I was. It was classified, and it wasn't what I was used to, but I was fond of my patients. They're the one part of it all that I miss. They were good people." Because she wanted to protect them, for all that she resented them for serving as a constant reminder of what she had once been.

"Most of them, anyway," she said, her hand coming up almost unconsciously to touch one of the scars before she jerked it away. She got to her feet and walked to the kitchen, washing out the cup and drying it. Suddenly the apartment felt too small.

That sounded far too familiar. Classified and not what he was used to. He stayed quiet as she spoke about her patients, frowning again at the end when she almost touched her scars as she trailed off. Huh, so maybe a patient gave her those?

She was up and out of the room before he could say anything, and he stayed where he was for a moment, unsure. He got up after a minute and crossed the hallway to stand in the kitchen doorway. Watching her dry the mug, he pinched at the bridge of his nose before speaking. "Look, I can leave if you'd rather be on your own for a while. Your room's the one on the left, by the way."
