Characters: Daphne cagedbirdruns , Watanukiisthis_hitsuzen , and Doumeki ghostrepellent  Open to Rin obviously.
Summary: Checking in on a friend.
DAY/NIGHT & Time: After Daphne got done with the whole Bella thing.
Status: Closed / Incomplete

After everything was over, that whole mess with Bella and getting her calmed down cause, really, bashing people with furniture really wasn't a way to deal with your problems, Daphne's thoughts had turned once again to her own issues. Which wasn't really a surprise, she'd had her thoughts stuck on those problems, unless very very distracted, since the other day. And they'd sort of...multiplied.

Most of the allies and friends she'd made, they were hurt, or dead, or doing things she wanted no part of.  And it wasn't like she'd sought out to attach to any of them in the first place! She hadn't...But. What was it about stupid Asian guys in glasses with sidekicks. Really. Was this going to be some kind of pattern or something? Cause if it was she wanted no part of it. She couldn't take this. These self sacrificing people who really just should learn to give it up and deal with it or get the fuck out like she.....Daphne stopped running for a moment. Just...Just a moment. Stopped. Just to think. She needed to clear her head.

Yeah. Giving up and dealing sure looked like what she was doing. She wasn't. And she wasn't exactly running either because there wasn't anywhere she could go that wasn't here. That wasn't fucking mess. Daphne looked down at her hands. What was she doing. Between the pills she'd stolen and the bandages she could get in a shitton of trouble. Not the least from Chase who had decided to take at least one of the boys under his watch. How much Doumeki was still being watched or paid attention to she wasn't sure. But she was sure it wasn't good.  And then there was Watanuki. And thinking about him made her feel...She felt guilty. She hadn't exactly wanted to admit it. But it was so very true. Of course he'd had to get under her skin and be so fucking nice to her and been her friend and then she'd had to-Daphne squeezed her eyes shut tight, trying to stop the need to cry. That wasn't going to help anyone or anything. No, it wasn't at all.

So she ran again. She'd only be there for a moment, just a moment. That was all she needed and then she could be done and not feel like this and....

She stopped short once she hit the door, not wanting her wind trail to follow her right now when it could actually be harmful, and meant to just set the things down on the bed and go, but didn't.  She didn't even really get far enough in the room to see him.

Instead she just stood there for what felt like forever to her, though it was probably only seconds.
