But you, you’re special to me. When I’m with you I feel something is just right. I believe in you. I like you. I don’t want to let you go.

I guess this is where I beg, where I plead guilty of falling in love, where I crave your rescue, and you pretend like you didn’t see it coming.

‘ WHO AM I? what the— — who are you? ’ her confusion fuelled a quick scan of the area, the source of the voice escaping her for a moment until she looked up. ‘ oh. ’ narrow eyes looked back at the woman. it wasn’t much of a warm welcome, shouted questions over a banister. ‘ sonia. ’ she paused, tilting her head back farther, ‘ ghani: a mutant who needs to go underground. ’ she smirked, ‘ y’like what i did there? ’
Sybil narrowed her eyes at Sonia and began eating her orange at a leisurely pace. “I’d tell you to avoid puns here, but I’m a walking one.” She tilted her head to get a good look at Sonia. “I’m Croft. What can you do?”

“How about instead of coming to me every time your phone dies you buy a fucking charger and have some self-agency. I’m a person, not your fucking personal battery, and I’m only going to ask you once to get the fuck out of my face.”
Nora was hardly the person to be throwing around insults to anyone desperate for a few more battery percentages, but after over a week of sorting through and reassembling what she could of the east wing, day-to-day requests were like her nerves running through a cheese grater; they ran down to the root real fast. Did she mean to snap? No. Did they deserve it? Probably not. Did she feel bad? Not in the slightest.
“Woah, nelly.” Sybil took Nora’s hands in hers and spun her around so she was facing the opposite direction. She knew Walden cared for the girl and she’s had a few experiences with her herself, but she couldn’t say that she knew very much about Nora. Only that she’d been in Atlanta longer than Sybil had. “Let’s get you some orange juice.”

“You up for a drive?” Chelsea didn’t bother with an introduction; they’d seen enough of each other while Sybil recovered. With something resembling a clean bill of health, Chelsea figured her best friend to would be up for another adventure. She swung the car keys around her thumb.
“I need to pickup some things from a contact in Gainesville and make good on a favour. Wanted to have the best for my backup.”
“Fuck yes,” Sybil said underneath her breath. She’d been itching to leave the compound ever since she got released from the med bay. She grabbed the keys from Chelsea and grinned. “When do we leave? I have a new bathing suit I’ve been itching to wear.”

“Nice. I like it.” Owen actually let a chuckle slip. He hated the name Blaze, but it had been given to him so long ago he’d just accepted it. “Good. I prefer Owen anyways.” He knew where the kitchen was, from having taken water to and from the patients in the infirmary. He didn’t actually know if he could use his powers for cooking, but it was worth a shot. “I’m not arguing, I just don’t want to cause another explosion. I’m not the best with my powers, but I’ll give it a try. Is there anyone I need to get keys from or anything, or just go hog wild in the freezers?”
“Owen it is.” She put her hands in her back pockets and rocked on her heels. “Another explosion would be a bad thing. I could show you where the food is, but I’d have to go get the key from Walden. Besides the tea and coffee, he’s very protective of how we ration it out. I think today we’re having... macaroni again? Unsure. It’s anyone’s guess.”

I love to see how far you’re able to go, both in skills but also emotionally how far I can push myself.

“I don’t fucking know, okay?” She felt anger and annoyance rising in her throat. “I got conked on the head during it; I don’t remember anything.”
“Alright, shit. Then I’ll go find someone who does. Good luck with your head or whatever,” she grumbled before walking away.
