Sickly Confessions with hero_farmboy

[feltalone]

Lana wanted out of her house and back to the office, like now. She hadn't spent this much time in her still very new home since her vacation, which was boring enough on its own. Now that she thought about it, she'd never even had a house warming for this place, just told the important people in her life where she could be found. She had been so

Fighting with wood. A hell of a lot of lumber is required to build a house and he doesn't even have enough to start with yet. But it's one more load down and with Eirene napping he finally makes his way to Lana's apartment.

On arrival, he knocks on her door and then waits. She's not Chloe and just walking in isn't an option.

As much as she's been expecting that knock, it makes her jump a little and hold the bear a bit tighter. She mentally kicks herself for it before making her way to let him in.

"Don't break the salt line." Not a hello or any sort of welcome, just a warning to be careful of the salt that lined the floor in a shape that allowed for easy door opening before turning back to head toward the couch again.

She's not trying to be rude, she's just sick. Though the salt thing is bound to raise an eyebrow.

"Not me, actually...it was Sam." She holds a little tighter to her stuffed friend when she speaks his name. She doesn't know where he is or when he'll be back, and sometimes she wonders if he's hurt or worse. Not right now, though. Right now she just misses him and so keeps the bear he gave her close, and prepares to explain herself to someone who might understand just how complicated her life had gotten. Not that it hadn't been already.
