Who: Summer Roberts and Steve Rogers What: Being avoidy When: Friday Evening Where: Her room Warning: Mentions of the au, but otherwise low Status: Closed/Ongoing
Summer had been the very definition of avoidance this week. She mostly stayed in her room, sometimes venturing out of the house during the day. Anything to avoid everyone in the house. That alternate world had really messed with her, and she didn't want to deal with it. So that meant avoiding anyone who'd been directly involved like Kara and Bucky. Veronica had not been directly involved, but she was a reminder of what Summer had been forced to do over there. She staked her own guardian. Yeah, she was an evil vampire who was going to harm people. It needed to be done, but it hurt having to do that to the one person she was closest to in this world.
Yet, she couldn't talk to her now. That place was awful, and that was the worst thing to ever happen to her. Back home, she had a great life and things were mostly good. Even her time in Madison Valley had been relatively peaceful. Okay, so it hadn't been for the others who lived here, but she'd managed to avoid anything terrible. That all changed with that other bizarro world.
She was having trouble moving on maybe because this was her first real trauma. She wasn't sure. But she was going to stay here in her room for awhile until she started to feel better.
For now, she sat on her bed with earphones on, hoping the music would drown out her thoughts. It didn't really work.
