Nearly 2 and a half months. Roughly 10 weeks. 72 days. 1,728 hours. 103,680 minutes. The many ways that she could identify just how long it was she had been there. As she had done numerous times all ready, Jess kicked at a rock on the ground. These thoughts about how long she had been here in Lawrence had been happening a lot. There would be days where it would be the farthest from her mind. And then there would be days where she would rise and it's all she could focus on. Perhaps it wouldn't be so hard to not think of home and what she was missing if someone she knew were here. Though she had friends, at least she assumed that's how they viewed her, it was easy to feel alone. Familiar faces were supposed to stave off that lonely feeling. Or so that's what she'd always assumed. Jess didn't necessarily need anyone to survive it's just that she wanted someone. With a slight sigh she recalled telling Bill how she didn't want to be alone. Didn't want to ever lose him. It had taken her being transported via a biblical seal to realise just how much she had meant that.
Looking up at the sky she whispered a prayer, plea, whatever it could be called. "If you're listenin' I'd appreciate if you'd bring me my Maker. I kinda need him." When she'd finished her plea Jess shook her head at her own idiocy. Here she stood in the middle of the path whispering a plea to the seal to bring Bill to her. As if the seal even granted wishes. Had anyone happened to be out at this hour and come upon her they'd surely think she was mad. Or desperate. Kicking the rock again Jess continued with her walk.
There was still more time before she would need to return to the house that Anna had so graciously offered her to stay in. Though it was hardly necessary Jess often kept to the routine of going to ground during the day and rising during the evenings. At least 2 out of 7 days during the week she would enjoy the sunshine albeit she mostly kept to herself and tried not to draw any unwelcomed attention. Partly out of a means of self protection. Bill had kept his secrets and that was one thing that she'd learned from him without being taught. Sometimes it was just better to keep things from those you cared about and those who cared about you. But Jess was also quite selfish. This gift that she'd received from having had some of Warlow's blood was something she had never dreamed of having again. Vampires were creatures of the night. Shifters, weres, fairies, witches, humans, etc..all were beings that walked during the day freely. And now she was allowed to be among them. From what little she had researched online upon Warlow's death the ability was lost. Only thanks in part to the Seal she'd arrived prior to his demise in her world and thus far the ability didn't seem to be wearing off. And Jess didn't want to share it. It was the one thing she could claim as a "gift" from home. Her logic was quite flawed as it wasn't a "gift" from home given to her by the seal. It was just that she'd arrived from a point in her own timeline where it had been reality.
Straying from the path Jess decided to take a shortcut across the park. Thoughts of potentially ending her walk through the park early and obtaining a blood bag before doing something else altogether.
