[So Angela's on the roof. She's not avoiding the people who just came back from her world, why would you ask

Comments

[i_findthem]

[Molly is on the roof, considering jumping. she stands there, arms outstretched, with her eyes closed so tightly as she stands on the edge but doesn't move a muscle. that is, until she hears the briefest of sighs accompanied with tapping of a pen, startling her enough make her nearly fall but, unfortunately for her, not enough to tilt her over the edge]

Hello?

[iwas_cassandra]

[looks up at the voice, and she looks more than a little concerned, before getting up and making her way over to take her arm gently]

Molly, dear, get away from the edge.

[i_findthem]

[nods absentmindedly as she allows herself to be pulled away from the roof's edge. she'll try hanging herself with jump rope later, which hardly worked before, but--]

Thanks.

[iwas_cassandra]

[looks her over carefully, sure that something's wrong, but can't put her finger on it -- honestly doesn't know the girl that well]

Is everything alright?

[paid_the_price]

[And this one is still on the roof, sitting at the edge and tossing some electricity from hand to hand idly

Least this time he wasn't caught off guard by the newcomer. Really.]

[iwas_cassandra]

[she's a little caught off guard herself, but it's not like it's an ability she hasn't seen before. Watches him carefully for a moment, before nodding slightly]

That's a rather impressive ability you have.

[paid_the_price]

[Back and forth once more, before the electricity vanishes back into his body. Then he turns his head to look at the woman]

Guess it has its moments.

[iwas_cassandra]

[pauses for a moment, considering]

I know someone who has an ability like it. She seems to be rather fond of it.

[overninelives]

[she comes on the roof just because it feels like 4 years since she last was up here, pausing when she thinks she sees someone familiar]

Angela?

[iwas_cassandra]

[glances over and wow -- that's some hair]

Claire. How are you -- adjusting?

[overninelives]

[doesn't stand right beside her, but a good few feet away]

Fine. It's just like all the other times.

[iwas_cassandra]

[nods]

I heard you were home for quite a deal longer than it usually is.
