She looked over. "...Please don't do that."

"Why not? It didn't do anything."

2015-10-11 10:21:52

●

"Because I'd rather you not burn yourself."

2015-10-11 10:22:29

🌀

"It doesn't hurt."

2015-10-11 10:23:08

●

"I know it doesn't."

2015-10-11 10:23:50

🌀

"So it's fine."

2015-10-11 10:24:11

●

"...." She reached over and stuck her hand into the flame just to prove her point.

2015-10-11 10:25:19

🌀

"Wait. Uh." It didn't hurt, so what was the point in stopping her? But still....

2015-10-11 10:26:03

●

She kept it there for another moment, skin burned when she pulled away. "See what I mean?"

2015-10-11 10:27:01

🌀

Now they were confused. They didn't want her to hurt herself, but she wasn't actually /hurting/ herself, and... "...will that...get better?"

2015-10-11 10:28:16

●

She looked at it for a moment, then shrugged. "Who knows." What's another burn on her skin?

2015-10-11 10:29:08

🌀

Their eyes widened and they reached over to grab her hand. "It has to!"

2015-10-11 10:31:16

●

She jumped slightly when they grabbed her hand, not expecting it. "Just give it time, I guess."

2015-10-11 10:33:48

🌀

They jerked theirs back when she jumped. "Does it hurt I'm sorry I didn't mean to...."

2015-10-11 10:34:33

●

"No, no you're fine just emotions and...medication withdrawals. They don't mix." She moved her hand to her lap.

2015-10-11 10:37:17

🌀

".......medication withdrawals?"

2015-10-11 10:38:32

●

...Right. They weren't fully aware of her mental illness. "I take xanax for anxiety, and lithium for cyclothymia. Well, I did. I dumped them. Haven't been able to get refills of it for a while." No, she wasn't a drug addict.

2015-10-11 10:41:54

🌀

"You need them, though!"

2015-10-11 10:43:04

●

"I know, but I didn't want to risk me being stupid and purposely overdosing either."

2015-10-11 10:44:02

🌀

"...nooo....that's even worse....."

2015-10-11 10:44:36

●

"...I know." She looked to the floor again.

2015-10-11 10:46:46

🌀

"....you won't be stupid now, though, right, so could you...?"

2015-10-12 05:49:16

●

"Yeah....it just takes time. Especially since Xanax is known to be sold on the streets. So they monitor how much is given out in a small amount of time."

2015-10-12 05:54:11

🌀

"I'll get some there then! Since....everybody seems to think that anyways. May as well live up to it."

2015-10-12 05:56:15

●

"Ren. Please. Don't. I don't want to risk you going to prison for me."
