Re: Eddie's Kitchen: Muerte / Eddie
[She watches him push past, and blinks at the faked smile and faked cheer. Blinks at his retreating back. Blinks at the angle of his shoulders that she knows isn't good. Blinks down at the invitation.
And then presses the heels of her hands into her eyes and swears. It might be just loud enough for him to hear the words that are unfamiliar to anyone on this planet. But the tone makes it clear what the words mean. She wants to apologize, to explain, but finds herself not knowing if pushing in this moment will just make things worse.
So she takes the cowardly retreat, hiding away in her realm, among her pair of goldfish and her hat collection.]
