Episode 80

[spongetastic]

[trying to get his life back in some kind of order involves introducing the two important women in his life to each other. This is what Peter intended when he went to Claire's room. But when he gets there...]

Claire.... GodDAMMIT!!

[that would be the sound of him smashing his fist straight through the wall. Ouch]

[decibel_chamber]

Lemme guess...castle sent her home, didn' it?

Son of a bitch!

[On top of everything else going on with him, losing one of the people who knew the whole truth about him was hard. One less person to drag him back from the edge, should he lose control again.]

[spongetastic]

[yep life pretty much sucks. Peter slides down to the ground and sits there without answering]

[decibel_chamber]

I'm...my name's Jonothan. Claire's a friend o' mine. One o' th' few I had left.

I'm sorry. She meant a lot t'me...t'a lot o' folks.

[spongetastic]

..I'm Peter. Claire is my niece.

[apologeticangel]

Peter?

[spongetastic]

[he should probably answer this] Colette.

[apologeticangel]

A... did a friend of yours leave?

[spongetastic]

My niece.

[spongetastic]

Yeah. [that's all he can manage]

[spongetastic]

Claire's... back home.

[kungfuwitch]

oh no. [she knows what's happened without even asking. She closes her eyes]

Peter... I'm so sorry.

[spongetastic]

Phoebe.... [that's all he can manage. What he means to say is "I need you" but he can't get the words out right now]

[kungfuwitch]

Where are you?

[You're lucky your girlfriend is so intuitive, Peter, she's already put her door and heading down the tower stairs.]

[spongetastic]

Outside her room.

[and mun can't remember where that was, so have a vague floor number]

[drugged_chai]

Peter...what's happened?

[spongetastic]

She's gone. [he says the words flatly]

[drugged_chai]

[There's a long silence before he speaks again]

Oh...

I'm sorry.

[spongetastic]

Don't... say that.
