Day 11
Who: Jay and Shannon
What: Figuring out how to go on, I suppose
Where: Behind the gym
When: about 6pm

Jay didn't remember most of the things connecting some events to others. He couldn't remember how he'd found out about Silent Bob, he couldn't remember how he'd gotten to the gym, but he remembered that Logan dude telling him to go there as fast as he could. He'd breezed through the attempt at healing his arms, and now he'd taken enough pain killers to kill a small animal; which meant he was yet again high, which also meant his memory wasn't exactly perfect at this point either.

Most of all, he felt empty. Blank, actually, a blank slate with nothing on it. Confused, too, and lonely though he didn't want to acknowledge that. As he walked outside and around the building, thinking about how for the first time in ever he could use an actual cigarette and not a blunt, he hadn't expected to find Shannon there, looking pretty fucking sad herself. Immediately, Jay sat next to her, mumbling a "Thank God" nobody was supposed to hear. Beyond that, he didn't speak. He couldn't bring himself to.

Once again, Shannon shook her head. "Yeah, I mean it fucks me up, but I haven't had time to mourn, yet. There's been too much of that whole trying-not-to-end-up-dead thing I've been concentrated on. I don't necessarily think it's bad to finally let it really hit me...again. At least, unfortunately for you, this time I'll have someone around who knows what I'm really going through," she replied. Because, bless his heart, Sam had tried to identify with her pain, but he'd just sort of missed the mark.

"Have you eaten?" she asked. The question sounded random, she knew, but sometimes depression and shock from a loss could do strange things to a person...like allow them to forget to keep themselves up by eating. If he hadn't, she thought he should and she had one or two more SlimFast bars she could share with him. It was, she thought, the least she could do, since there was nothing really she could do to ease his pain.
