Day 291 [Action:Closed] [Action:Open] [Video:Private]
[Action | Closed Reid]
[She wakes up on the floating island with the blaring and vibrating of the giant speakers below her. She can't really process the message, and as it turns out that doesn't really matter to her at the moment because everything that happened yesterday is taking on a whole new context. She threatened Reid. She threatened Reid. He looked so hurt. So did Nathan. She reaches up to call him only to remember she left her communicator by the bed. She'll just have to get there herself then. Without another moment's delay she phases, dropping right through the island and getting herself to the apartment as fast as she can.]

Reid! Nathan!? [Calling out their names as soon as she drops in through the ceiling of the kitchen as it turns out.]

[Action | Open (After the breakup)]
[Nathan is still in the hospital. Reid is...wherever he went. The apartment is all hers at the moment and she has no intention of going back there until she's too exhausted to be awake long for it. She's not sure if she wants to avoid people or be with them, so for now she's just walking without paying much attention to where that takes her.]

[Video | Private to Data]
Data? You there?

	That and you might have heard his name on today's morning announcements. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	To be honest I had other things on my mind than the announcements this morning. Did something happen? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-04 03:06 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. [But she doesn't fill him in, not yet.] Tough morning? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He shrugs.] Interesting morning. It could have been worse. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-04 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	Because of what happened yesterday with him being from the past? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2014-10-04 03:29 pm UTC (link)
	Partially. We've been going through a bit of a rough patch lately. [He feels silly just saying it. After all, it can't compare to what's happend in her relationship.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-04 03:54 pm UTC (link)
	Oh. [She feels silly too for not realizing it and going on about herself.] I'm sorry. Do you want to talk about it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He almost says no out of habit. After all he's not used to having anyone to talk to about these things in the first place. As much as he loves Gwen she tends to be a bit much sometimes and other than her and Jack he's not particularly close with anyone at home. Talking about things simply hasn't been an option before now. But she was honest with him even when it couldn't have been easy. Surely he can do the same.]

There's just been so much happening lately and I suppose it's all starting to add up. He's been acting strangely but I can tell if there's someting actually wrong with him or if it's because of things that have happened.

	[Concerned. Partially for the team if something is up, but in this moment more so for Ianto.] Strangely how? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Angrier, more aggressive, I suppose. [After this morning he knows Jack is being affected by a pearl but it's still hard to blame it all on that. Very reluctantly he explains.] He got hurt, when we were putting Spike's soul back. Quite badly, actually. And I shot him. It was... I've never killed him before, and I don't think either one of us is coping with it very well.

I noticed that too, with the aggression. I thought he was just upset about Spike or not good with not being the one at the top of the food chain. [She figured maybe it was a natural progression of the DF heating up.]

Jack told me his injuries were minor and that he died to heal up faster. He said you were with him. He didn't say you were the one who...

[It feels like she's run out of the right words to say so she tries something else leaning forward on that coffee table to give him a hug. It's a little awkward, but she means well?]

[Lots of hugging today. But it seems to make it alright, suddenly. He's been working so hard to be alright with it for Jack's sake, to pretend he's not as bothered by it as he is. As a result the sudden sympathy hits rather harder than he expected it to, and he swallows around the lump in his throat.] I just thought he must have had to do it so many times in his life and it must be so hard and I couldn't let him.

	[She hears that sound and holds him a little tighter and a little more naturally.] You did what you thought you needed to do. That's all any of us can do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2014-10-04 08:28 pm UTC (link)
	[He nods stiffly, not sure he entirely believes it. It's one thing to tell himself that but he can still hear what Jack had said when they'd fought afterwards. I should have known you couldn't handle it.] I think it might have been a mistake. The way he reacted after... I should have just let him do it himself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-04 08:32 pm UTC (link)
	What did he do? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2014-10-04 08:38 pm UTC (link)
	We had a fight after it. It wasn't enurely his fault; I should have known it would bother me more, knowing how I'm going to die if I go home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-04 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	Welcome to club death. You're not the only one. [Also not the first time she felt closer to someone because of it. Neil. Itachi. Granted, Itachi was reanimated zombie style, but he gets to be in the club.] But killing the person you love even if you know they're going to wake up again? There'd probably be something wrong if that didn't bother you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Quietly.] Its always hard when he dies. He acts like it doesn't matter, like its normal and I just wish I could make him see that it's not. He doesn't have to keep throwing his life away and hurting himself just because he can. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-04 09:08 pm UTC (link)
	I was kind of shocked when he told me he had injuries so he just died to fix them. The guy who trained me... His power was healing himself. I saw him take damage no one would be walking away from and he would. He'd put himself in the line of fire because he could, but he still told me not to think of life as being cheap.

I think Jack's the opposite. He's lived for so long and died so many times I don't think he remembers what it's like to be normal. Seeing death as a solution is the way he thinks now. I think he puts himself in danger just because he can, sometimes. I've seen him die to trick enemies or find a way to escape a situation and I just wish he wouldn't see it like a tool. I've told him how much I hate watching him have to come back but I don't think he listened.

	I guess I can understand using it like a power, but it's not like something like that is ever easy to watch or know about when it's happening to someone you love. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2014-10-05 02:34 am UTC (link)
	No, it's not. [He glances away for a moment, clearing his throat roughly and blinking furiously a few times.] Sorry, I shouldn't complain. Not after what happened to you today. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-05 02:44 am UTC (link)
	There's always something happening to someone. It doesn't make your feelings less important, right? Besides, you still have a chance to make things better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2014-10-05 12:28 pm UTC (link)
	I hope so. [A little laugh.] We never really had time to fight back home. We were usually too busy saving the world to do much more than occasionally shag on his desk. It's different here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yeah... I know exactly how that kind of relationship goes. I was just thinking what I wouldn't give for a little more crisis so I don't have all this time on my hands. [Or on her mind really. She will get her wish tomorrow, not that she realizes it!]

But... I do think you can get through it. The most important part is that no one stops trying. There's no fixing things if someone gives up.
