When last I saw her ....

[janeehawkins]

The last time I saw Velma was at Andi and Stu's wedding. She and Soren were sitting at one of the tables, quietly talking. On slightly drunken impulse, I sat down across from them. We'd had a falling out the previous year. I still hoped for reconciliation but that hadn't happened. They greeted me politely then ignored me equally politely

I know what you mean. My heart breaks for Soren who (so far at least) seems to be moving through his days and coping with what he has to cope with.

The last time I saw her, she told me she felt sometimes scared and worried for the people she loves but "oddly serene." That comforts me.

That sounds quite Velma-esque, actually.

Yes, I feel the worst for Soren. I've broken up with partners, but they've always still been AROUND somewhere.

Soren and I will both miss Velma forever (as will other people, I know), but I have a better support system to lean on right now, because I haven't just lost the single most important person to me.
