Characters: Em and Dedsies
Status: Private.
Summary: After the events of the party, Em is out by herself, wangsting. Or, well. So she thinks.
Status: Incomplete
Em stared out at the lake. It was far after-hours and she was well-aware of the fact, but for some reason she didn't care. She also didn't care about the fact that it had just rained out and that the grass was still wet and thereby getting her pants wet. Leaning against the tree trunk of the oak right by the lake, she stared up at the moon and its reflection in the surface of the water. Only some crickets were still chirping. Save for that, the night was quiet.
She just wanted the dreams to stop and forget about Dedalus and what had happened. They hadn't talked much lately and it was making her upset... more upset than she wanted to admit. Talking to Lily was out of the question, as she'd most likely just be told that she was looking at the situation in an absurd, unreasonable way and needed to reevaluate where her priorities stood, particularly where Dedalus stood on that list of priorities.
Em wasn't ready to think about that. God, she'd barely discovered that she... even admitting it she had issues with. This whole situation was ridiculous. She just wanted things back to normal. If that meant that she couldn't get Dedalus, then so be it.
