Nina threw herself into her life in this place. She got along well with her guardian, even with the knowledge that she'd been on her own for most of her life. Kaz, Inej, and Jes ended up in this place with her, which meant she had more Crows than not, and she could throw herself into learning schemes and running cons with Kaz. Of course, she still needed to use her powers, which meant trips to the cemetery every few weeks to raise some dead and use her powers to avoid illness.
Tonight, she'd stopped for fries and a grilled cheese at the diner before making her way to the park. At first, she happily munched on her food, sitting on a bench. But, she had the passing thought that she wished Matthias could try a grilled cheese with her and...
All the grief she'd kept at bay, mostly through avoidance, hit her like a fucking herd of horses. Nina could see Matthias as he lay dying in front of her. The love of her life didn't wait for her back home because he'd died and Nina had to set down her food as the tears streamed down her face.
