If there was something she was good at, it was avoiding things like the plague. Whereas her brother was known for stating things and then running away, she mostly did the running away before hand. Still she knew from talking to Keyleth and her brother, that she had to talk to Percy. Get it out in the open and try to talk it out. She couldn't keep avoiding him, the entire time that they were here. Even moving in with Keyleth for a time wasn't really helping.
Here she was, walking with Percy in the park, and trying to decide what to say to him. How to explain her behavior without looking like an idiot. Vex kept opening her mouth to speak, but she wasn't sure where to begin. Apology for making him think that she hated him, was probably a good start. Yet before she could tell him so, he'd asked her a question instead.
"Mmm, I don't really remember," she started and then paused. No, that wasn't right. "Wait no, I mean I do.. remember. Sort of. At least I think I do? It's hard to say. It was cold and .. nothing. A void. I think I might have seen the Raven Queen. Isn't she supposed to be there? That's her thing, the transition from life to death. I felt like.. I could see all of me.. clearly, all of the things that I've said and done, good or bad. Objectively. Like I was outside looking in. Percy, I'm sorry if I've made you feel like I don't.. like you, or that something's wrong.."
She stuck her hands in her pockets and sighed. "When I say it's me and not you.. I mean it."
