Re: [In-person: PJ and Atticus]
My first and last haircut took place in that apartment right up there. [She nodded toward the door of the barn and the apartment that was above the garage. Not that she'd never been to a salon, but she didn't see the point of paying for something simple she could do herself.]
You can have him back tomorrow, you need something to snuggle too. [It wasn't so much a question as it was an observation, and she had given it to him after all.
When he knelt down she moved the sling just a bit to expose her bandaged arm a bit more. It was starting to bleed through a little the last set of bandages she'd put on earlier in the day. She looked a little sheepish, both at his question, and at the state of her injuries.] They wanted to control everything I did, every aspect of my life. Wouldn't let me have friends, wouldn't let me leave. I came back here when my dad died and just [she sighed a little.] didn't go back. It's been really hard. [She nodded about the bandage.] But last night was, I don't know. Weird. I hardly noticed it hurt. I danced all night. There were so many people. I wanted to dance with all of them. So I just danced. A lot. I hurt myself again.
