Well - if they minded, they would have said something, right?

[with a small sigh:]

Even beyond how he got aside... What could have happened to him? The most dangerous thing I've seen here are birds.
wtfox: deal with it (i'm cuddly bitch)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-12 02:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess, but...

[she fidgets, looking like it still feels weird to her!]

There were a bunch of arrows on the ground nearby. [she pulls out her phone to show the picture she took from the investigation!] Some of them were embedded in the ground, but some weren't.

[he looks at the picture for a long moment, narrowing his eyes in confusion, before it sinks in and they widen.]

Wait, you don't think... [aaaaa] But - why would somebody do this? That doesn't make any sense.
wtfox: and i have lost all faith in humanity (i'm currently watching a guy eat cacti)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-12 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I really don't know.

[...]

It definitely wasn't what I was expecting to find when I ran out of the dorm 'cause of the fire alarm...

Oh - is that what that was?

[ye olde strikes again. but, after a moment:]

Are you alright? Or - going to be alright?
wtfox: actually, he's better off without you and that's what really matters (you're better off without him)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-13 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm alright. And I will be.

[she's not the one who died, after all!]

...are you?

[after a moment:]

I don't know. I mean - I knew there was something bad up with this place, obviously, but I didn't think something like that would ever happen.
wtfox: goodbye veneer of class and dignity it was nice knowing you (it's done i'm done)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-13 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah... this definitely wasn't something we could predict.

[kidnapping is one thing, but after a more or less peaceful week, how could any of them make the leap to assume that someone was going to die?

...maybe they let their guards down.]

[personal profile] heartlands 2021-06-13 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
...It really does feel like we just got blindsided, doesn't it?
wtfox: nor do any other emotions (optimism doesn't exist before 2pm)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-13 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
...yeah... I really don't like it.

[...he gives her shoulder a little squeeze.]

I bet we can get through it together, though.
wtfox: you asshole (i am a unicorn in a field of flowers)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-13 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[she manages a small, grateful-looking smile]

Yeah... I bet we can.

You seem pretty tough to me, so... Ah, not to say that you always have to be if you're even not feeling it.
wtfox: to tase anyone not wearing a mask (it should be perfectly legal)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-13 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I am pretty tough! Or at least, I can be. I think. Especially when there's people like you to back me up.

[...]

But you don't have to pretend like you're okay, either.

[personal profile] heartlands 2021-06-15 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
...I don't think I'd be very good at pretending even if I tried. I'm not okay. This is - horrible.
wtfox: i'm made of fruit (no one can touch me)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-15 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
It really is. But... luckily we've got people to support us.

We can be not okay together.

[personal profile] heartlands 2021-06-15 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe we could make a club.

[it's a joke, though it's halfhearted given the circumstances.]
wtfox: your ex tried to add me on facebook (speaking of dumpster fires)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-15 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Like a support group? That's not a bad idea...

[she is not joking]
heartlands: (pic#14961326)

[personal profile] heartlands 2021-06-15 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
...What's a support group?
wtfox: and no one found me until the morning but i have fifty missed calls (apparently i disappeared)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-15 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
A group of people who are dealing with the same unpleasant thing and help each other through it.
heartlands: (pic#14961327)

[personal profile] heartlands 2021-06-15 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[...]

You mean, like, friends...? Are friends called a support group where you're from?
wtfox: why did i wake up next to a stuffed swordfish? (riddle me this)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-15 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! No, friends are friends... it's just, um, how should I put this... sometimes your friends haven't been through the exact same things you have? So it's easier to talk to people who have.

That's where the support group comes in - it's all people who know exactly what you're going through because they lived it.

...You know, I was joking earlier, but that actually does sound like kind of a good idea.
wtfox: your ex tried to add me on facebook (speaking of dumpster fires)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-15 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)
...yeah, the more I think about it, the better an idea it sounds.
