When: LAST SUNDAY, 10/9, afternoon
Where: Ella's home
Summary: Griffin finally returns home and he owes someone an apology.
Warnings: Cussin'
Griffin walked from the woods to his home. He really didn't have to, he has plenty of good Jump sites near his house. He was just being a huge wimp about this. Ella hadn't seen hide nor hair of Griffin for about two weeks. He didn't give her any sign of him being alive, except perhaps Hitsugaya. He's figuring that he would have told Ella about their run-in. Still, that was last week. A whole week with no sign.
Griffin feels like a huge prick.
It's not often that he feels contrite for his actions. Griffin has lived a very particular way. He's only survived this long because of his way. However, trying to fall back on that way in Siren's Port blew up in his face magnificently. He hadn't accounted for people caring enough to call out his shitty behavior. He hadn't accounted for actually caring about those people. Now, he's been the worst to the person he considers his best friend. God, he feels like a prick.
He shuffles near the door like a dog with its tail between its legs. He had been trying to build up the courage all morning to come back. Griffin is really terrible with the concept of apologies and that's assuming Ella would accept one. He literally needed help from the gods to get to this door. (Not that he realizes the creatures he ran into are gods.) Finally, he walks up to it. It still takes a solid minute before he knocks.
Griffin looks like shit ran over twice. The scratches on his face are nearly healed, but still visible. His right hand is in a self-made splint. He's been beaten up and down Siren's Port and it shows. He's hoping it gets him some sympathy and less yelling.
