13.0 [Open Comment Log] Post-Trauma Decompression

Oct 29, 2010 18:19

[During the last seven days, Riley had endured a concussion, black eye, a couple cracked ribs, and a few days of pain during which time she had people playing nursemaid over her. After those few days, she'd gotten fed up and convinced a friend to help her out of her room for fresh air, during which point she jumped overboard to kill herself. She'd assumed she'd come back whole and healthy as she had the first time she'd died, and luckily, her assumptions had been correct.

To celebrate, she was sitting at the Oceanview Bar enjoying a drink she'd made herself. Truthfully, she hadn't exactly looked at any of the labels, but the thing smelled like rubbing alcohol and after a few sips she was sure she was going to get drunk very quickly.

The good news was that this was exactly according to her plan.

Now all she needed was to wait and see if anyone would show up and decide to drink with her.]
