Who: Clyde Bailey and Matilda Martin
What: Anger, frustration, fear - dealing with death is hard
When: Wednesday December 23 - evening
Where: Shreveport, LA - Clyde's house
Warnings: Angst and words
It didn't have to be this way, but it was. Clyde hadn't cried. He wasn't going to cry if he could help it, but he was damn angry. He didn't know what to do; this wasn't like before. There had been a war before, but this was different. He didn't even know who to be mad at. He could be mad at CORE, but were they really the ones who did this? Joe's calling him a coward didn't help. If Joe had been near by, the two remaining crew members might have come to blows, and it might have done them both good.
He hadn't said much when he picked Mattie up, and he hadn't exactly been overly physical either. He hadnt' even flirted with the receptionist. He didn't offer to get her any food, but he supposed she would have asked if she wanted anything. He let her into the house, and without a word, settled onto the couch to stare. This was hitting Clyde hard, obviously.
War was a bitch, and it had no right taking the good.
