Summary: Lily tries to relax
Status: Complete
Lily had been playing catch up for most of the day. She'd slept most of the weekend prior, and then they'd been flung into music that made conversation impossible. Jaime had been reconciling with Mal and coming to terms with her near-suicide, and Tyler ... she wasn't sure what was going on with Tyler, exactly. He seemed okay, but quieter than usual.
Then there'd been the inexplicable change of Remuses, and then finally, blissfully, the music had shut down. So she (and she reasoned most of the others) had taken a very long nap. She'd risen for dinner, and then with nothing pressing to do (and needing a bit of time to herself), she'd sought out some place of refuge.
The library, kitchen, and rec room were all occupied. Swan had been out in the garden. She didn't want to hang out in her room, didn't want to go bother Balthazar (who may well still be sleeping), she didn't really want to be around most people. If she hadn't thought she'd have been bothering him, she might have stopped in to see what Sev was up to, but ... he was probably looking for peace and quiet as much as (if not more than) any of the others here.
So Lily had ventured outside. She could have gone up to the roof, she knew, but ever since the blizzard incident, she'd been ... skittish about going up there. After all, Susan wasn't here to save them this time. That sent an unexpected pang through her, and she'd detoured to the grave markers. It was hard to believe they'd all been gone for ... over a month now. Lily had spent a few moments standing by the markers and simply remembering the ones who'd fought and fallen before she'd turned away.
She'd wandered down to the line (but not over it) and she'd waved to Jake and Oy when she saw them heading in.
Still at something of a loss, Lily had wandered over to the convenience store and settled down in front of it, resting her back against the wall. It was nice like this, out here in this false world, enjoying the complete and utter lack of noise. If someone happened by looking for the same, she wouldn't mind the company ... but she'd also be perfectly content to simply ... be here.
