you were wild, where are you now? [open]

Eden McCain is sitting on the steps of a house that used to belong to someone as the sun is coming up over Hell, soaking the streets, drying the dew from the night before, chasing away the vampires, etc.

The house she's using as a bench belonged to a family of four.  The mother was an alcoholic.  Eden knows this from the places the bottles were hidden in the house.

In or on her person, she has the following:

One (1) Bottle of Jack Daniels, unopened.
Two (2) bandages, wrapped around her right hand.
One (1) long scrape down the length of her right arm.
One (1) totally unfocused expression.

There's no one in Hell to know what holding this bottle means.  Really, there are one and a half people she could tell, and she's not there with either of them yet.

Summer at the end of the world is a great time to be alive.
