[Day 329] In Bloom Event/Dance Mingle
[DAYTIME: Walking in a floral wonderland. Not to be confused with an actual wonderland. ~~Completely different event.~~ You could be anywhere and everywhere today and not escape the petals.

DANCE: The sector 2 garden is a little extra pleasant and inviting this evening. Gentle breeze, beautiful flowers, delicious hor d'oeuvres, sparkling punch, and music. And dry. Did we mention it's dry? Not a single flood as far as the eye can see. So, find someone and get out there and dance.]

(OOC: Event INFO. Feel free to have your mingle set up cover both aspects of the day.)

	[ Why is everyone shunning the floral trend on the one day when she can't make up for it? ] Nathan! [ She beams as he approaches, perhaps more so than usual. Another thing she feels like she needs to make up for. Everyone is so disproportionately sad. She came back, didn't she? ] I'm just fine. Jeez, everyone keeps asking me that today... do I not look okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Is there a universe in which Nathan would, of his own accord, wear flowers? Or, for that matter, one where he doesn't look sad?] No, you look good. Like a prisoner, but [That's not a compliment! He scrambles for something more complimentary.[ your hair's nice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Maybe those two are connected. Maybe she's going to test this theory later tonight. ] Thank you. I was thinking about maybe cutting the jumpsuit up and make a dress out of it, but I don't want to get myself in more trouble than I already have. Besides, I bet I would just hurt myself on the needle. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-06-30 04:05 pm UTC (link)
	[If she asked him to wear a flower crown, he couldn't very well say no.] That would probably count as cheating. Why would you hurt yourself? Is it hard to move? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kind of. I'm much better than I was yesterday. It's still kind of... wobbly I guess, but at least now I can go to the bathroom without falling down. [ That was an awkward afternoon. ] Ianto said he had the same thing. I'm sure it'll pass. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Still... that sucks. The whole dying thing. ...It's okay if I hug you, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2015-07-02 08:41 pm UTC (link)
	It's not so bad for the person doing it. Much worse for the ones left behind. [ Yeah, that's the right thing to say to a suicidal kid. She counters it by holding her arms out. ] It's always okay for you to hug me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He'll mull over that later when he's alone and sulking and feeling crazy. Right now, it's far more important to hug Chuck. It's a strong, decisive hug, too; no timid hugging here.]

When I heard you'd died, I kept thinking about how I don't talk to you enough and how there're a bunch of things I should've said, and it made me sick to think about what it'd be like if you hadn't come back.

	[ Maybe just don't be alone, ever. That sounds like a good idea. Also, good hug there buddy. She's impressed. ] What did you want to say to me? [ Softly. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-07-03 03:53 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, it... it seems kind of stupid now, but... I like you a lot, y'know? I don't like that many people, it's just that you're so good and I never want you to get hurt. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2015-07-03 08:03 pm UTC (link)
	[ Oh, Nathan. She gives him a reassuring squeeze. ] Thank you for telling me that. I like you a lot too. [ Actually, considering her recent brush with death maybe this isn't the time to be shy.. ] I love you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-07-04 03:24 am UTC (link)
	[His breath hitches. She might as well be squeezing his heart.] I don't get— [how she possibly can, or why she would want to. That's not the thing to say, though, and if he sounds more distressed than someone hearing these words ought to, it's just because he doesn't know how else to react to these feelings.] I do, too. Love you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ That's okay. She kind of gets it. I mean, she doesn't get it, she hasn't lived his life and her own wasn't quite so starved for affection but there are some things she can relate to. Gently, she rubs a hand over his back. ] Don't forget it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-07-05 02:39 am UTC (link)
	[Chuck should never have to be deprived of affection, not even a little. Nathan tries to get that across in one more squeeze.] I won't. I don't think I ever will. [He can't quite bring himself to pull away.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2015-07-05 07:08 am UTC (link)
	[ That's okay. She doesn't want him to go. There's no pulling away. ] We should hang out more. A lot more. You never know what could happen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-07-06 01:57 am UTC (link)
	Yeah... I think I want to do that. [And hopefully, she won't find reasons not to love him if she's around him more.] Not that anything'll happen. You're okay now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2015-07-06 12:54 pm UTC (link)
	[ That's extremely doubtful. She has a big heart. ] I am okay now. Are you okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-07-06 04:25 pm UTC (link)
	I'm more okay now than I remember being, ever. [And, like most things that Nathan says, that is true in this moment, even if it might not be the case in a few hours or days. But, right now, Chuck is fine and today has been a pretty good day.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2015-07-07 08:13 am UTC (link)
	[ That is so heartbreakingly sad but like always in the face of the heartbreakingly sad, Chuck meets it with determination and affection. ] Then we better make sure that you're even more okay tomorrow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-07-07 03:58 pm UTC (link)
	You really think that's possible. [He does let go of her now, smiling at her like she said something charmingly ridiculous. Charlotte and her optimism!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2015-07-07 04:16 pm UTC (link)
	Hey, I've come back from the dead twice already and you think it's impossible for you to feel better than you do now? [ Sir. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-07-08 02:05 am UTC (link)
	Some things aren't as impossible as others. Besides, don't you think there's a reason you keep coming back? Maybe everything would suck too much without you, so you're not allowed to stay dead. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ "I just thought my world would be a better place with you in it"

Ned told her that. As some kind of explanation for why he kept her alive when he shouldn't have. It hits a little too close to home, makes her think about everything she's gone through since arriving here. All good. Well, mostly good but enough good to completely and utterly outweigh the bad.

There's a pause. More of a pause than she intended for. ]

Yeah... maybe you're right. Maybe it's just not my time.

	[He's a little afraid that he said the wrong thing. Death is kind of a sensitive subject.] Anyway, I'm glad you're here. I'd ask you if you want to dance, but... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2015-07-08 03:14 pm UTC (link)
	[ It's not the wrong thing. It's just a thing that made her think about other things that he couldn't possibly know about. She smiles, shaking it off like a bad smell. ] If you're okay with waddling, I'd really like to dance. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
