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?

	Are you sure? [ Not questioning the idea itself — it's the best they have — but it's still a pretty big decision and Nathan should have a chance to think about it before he makes it. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She stays quiet while Reid questions him, feeling a little on edge. What do they have after this if he says no?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There aren't a lot of options, are there? [Since suicide is off the table and all.] Yeah, I'm sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ That alone is a source for great relief. ] Okay... good. Then we'll try that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rest up here for awhile and then we can go over to the kiosk later and then back home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alright. [And, even more quietly:] Thanks for not being mad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-10-08 05:06 pm UTC (link)
	[ God damnit Nathan. ] Why would we be mad at you? It's not your fault. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2014-10-08 05:24 pm UTC (link)
	But it is my fault. I didn't stop myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-10-09 08:07 am UTC (link)
	Listen to me — it's not your fault. It's not that you didn't, it's that you couldn't. Yes, this is bad but... you've been trying to fight it for so long. That counts for a lot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Kitty is a little less sure about how she feels. It's not that she's mad at him, but she's not sure she believes he couldn't control it at all. If that's the case then...how would they ever make this better or would he just always have to wear the collar?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2014-10-09 03:13 pm UTC (link)
	[Fighting doesn't count for much when there's nothing to show for it. Nathan doesn't say so or offer further verbal protest against Reid's conviction that he shouldn't blame himself.] And it won't happen again. [There's no conviction in his voice. He just wants to say it out loud--make it a promise, as if that, like the collar, can keep him from doing it again.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-10-09 07:35 pm UTC (link)
	No, it won't. [ If Nathan doesn't have conviction, he'll just have to make up for it. It won't happen again. They'll try the collar and they'll talk and somewhere in here there has to be a solution. As hopeless as it feels, this can't be without a solution. It just can't. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-09 07:38 pm UTC (link)
	You can come to us about this or other things. You don't have to try to solve everything on your own. [Since suicide is not her solution of choice here.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2014-10-10 12:10 am UTC (link)
	I know... thank you. [He won't make promises to actually talk to them about things. They have their own problems, after all.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-10-10 06:49 pm UTC (link)
	[ Speaking of their own problems. ] We should let you get some sleep... but we'll come back, okay? Soon. [ Or one of them will. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-10 06:56 pm UTC (link)
	[Nodding her agreement with this plan, but looking at Nathan to see if he wanted them to stay longer or talk more just in case.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2014-10-12 07:00 am UTC (link)
	Okay. See you later. [He doesn't actually bury his head under the blanket to indicate how very done with talking he is, as that would be childish and rude. The sentiment is still there, though.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-10-13 02:47 pm UTC (link)
	See you soon. [She manages a little smile his direction, but it's brief. This is hard. All of it. She nods and heads out of the room.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
