"True, but scamming someone is generally also called stealing."

"It's not a scam if he wasn't specific with me!"

"How do you really get specific about happiness?"

2016-03-17 23:40:42

"Telling me what makes him happy or what was preventing it in the first place?"

2016-03-17 23:42:05

"If someone hasn't felt happiness for a long enough time, they might not even know the answers to those questions."

"That's not my problem."

"Technically it was. But anyway, can you get a soul at the hospital?"

"I can try."

He sat on the peak of the roof, swinging his legs and throwing back a bottle of whiskey. He'd flown up there to be alone. No one else should have to be around him. He'd just drag them down with him. Make them sad. He'd had enough that he couldn't hear Luces. Sharon either, but that didn't matter. He didn't really feel anything, but there were tears falling down his face nonetheless. He stared down the slope of the shingles towards the edge. .......he really should. It was only sensible. Ivory wouldn't have to worry about trying and failing to make him happy anymore....and...the kid Anndrea had on the way. That was his fault. There should only be one life connected to his existing at a time. He'd let the kid have that. It actually might be worth something, unlike him. ....yeah, that seemed reasonable. This was better. He caused a lot of trouble already. Too bad they'd have to clean up the mess. He sighed at the thought, pushed himself up, and put away his wings, taking one last sip of alcohol before he put it down. He half slipped, half stumbled down to the edge of the roof. He made sure no one was standing below and took a step.

It seemed like Seculus wasn't the only one who got the idea to drink. Ivory found a bottle of wine, and down a drink went. She wasn't entirely drunk yet, just tipsy. On the other hand, Ivory was drunk enough that her mind wasn't entirely there, and that mind wanted Seculus. Now where could he be...? Maybe the roof will help her look. She wandered over to the bedroom window, set the bottle down, opened the window, hoisted herself up with her vampire strength, and climbed onto the roof.

And there she saw Seculus.

With her speed, she was already beside him. She calmly took his wrist, and pulled him back.

He slumped in disappointment and didn't look at her. Every time he tried..... "...../what/....."

"Did you think I'd let you go alone?" The faint smell of alcohol was on her breath.

2016-03-18 00:22:28

"....yes....you should, really."

2016-03-18 00:22:58

"But I don't wanna."

2016-03-18 00:24:55

"...and I don't want to live."

2016-03-18 00:25:06

●

"But I want you to."

"../but I don't want to/...."

"Listen...listen...dear." she put her arm around him. "Just...just sit with me. It'll change your mind."

2016-03-18 00:29:19

🌀

"....no it won't." He didn't sit down.

2016-03-18 00:29:57

●

"Plllleaase? For me?"

2016-03-18 00:32:57

🌀

"....I'll change your mind first....." He slumped down back onto the roof, resting his arms on his knees and picking up the whiskey bottle again.

2016-03-18 00:35:13

●

"No, no you won't dear." She sat next to him. "You mind sharing?" She held out her hand. "I left inside my drink."

2016-03-18 00:36:51

🌀

"...I will.......why do you keep..........." He looked down at the bottle for a minute, then sighed again, wiped his face on his sleeve, and held it out, not turning his head.

She took the bottle and took a drink, then handed it back. "Because I'm like a tumor. I never go away."

"...I mean..../dear/. That's /my/...."
