Who: Sophie Frost and Gar Logan
What: Bad news
Warnings: Angst

The day had been... unfortunate. Sophie had been in diamond form since she'd gotten out of bed and realized something was wrong. Even with diamond skin, she found herself lacking direction. It took her longer to make decisions than it should have. It was supposed to bring her clarity of thought, but it didn't seem to be working as well as it usually did.

Eventually, she wound up at Gar's door. She knocked twice and waited.

Sophie rolled her eyes. The moon was starting to sound like a pretty good idea. She could argue with Gar, or she could just ignore it. "You're upset, and I'm obviously not helping." He was right when he said she would need someone, but he wasn't exactly selling himself. She was trying to be there for him, but he seemed to be more interested in Sophie's coping style. It didn't look like she was doing him any good.

"I have things to take care of," she said, getting up. She wasn't sure exactly what sorts of things people did when everyone in their household disappeared, but she was sure there were calls to make or forms to fill out. She needed to figure out what to do with the house.

"You're GOD DAMNED RIGHT I'm upset!" he shouted, slamming his bottle down so hard that it cracked and foam poured out the top. "We don't all have the luxury of not giving a shit! In one fucking second, your entire family disappeared, but you don't give a damn. I don't even know why you bothered to come over here. You can't possibly care if I'm coping or not." It wasn't that long ago that he was happy to see her there, he knew, but anger had a way of overwhelming him. And even then, it wasn't anger, anymore than it had been happiness when he was joking or lust when he was flirting. It was still the same sadness seeking an outlet.

He stood up, tears flowing freely down his face. "Go take care of whatever you need to do, and then call me when you're done. I'll probably be sorry by then, and maybe you'll feel something close enough to emotion to be offended to begin with." Gar felt weak in the knees, but he didn't want to buckle in front of her. "Thanks for stopping by."

She shook her head. "I came over here to see if you'd disappeared too." It wasn't as noble as wanting to check and make sure he was okay, but it was the truth. It was probably a little pathetic that her list of people to check on was so short. "And to give you the news. Obviously it wasn't needed."

She walked to the door, infuriatingly calm. Once she reached the door, she turned back to him with a cold expression. "Gar? Rose is what we had in common, and she's gone now." Maybe she was angry. Maybe she was just a bitch. She turned and left, heading back to her empty house.
