Chris put his hands down when she lowered her firearm and sighed softly. He was glad he didn't have to call Salem for a patch up if she had shot him. And Chris really didn't want to have to up his Dose of Zydrate anymore than Salem already had for him. He nodded, "Well its a bit complicated and my memories from when the fire happened are spotty...but"

"I remember getting you all out, going back for father. And then nothing but darkness, maybe some screaming but its faint." He furrowed his brows. "When I came too I was in a lab, told that I now belonged to Skyport. They had reconstructed my skin from the fire and replaced some failing organs with cybernetics." He was all going off what he could remember, it all felt so distant now, so long ago. "They told me, I had to go into hiding. You all couldn't know I was alive and It was working out so well but then Bri'elle..." He trailed off slowing himself down "Bri found me first, then our half sibling Cory found me some how, then Raymond and I decided enough was a enough so here I am..." he could feel his chest tightening, the pools in his eyes beginning to form "I've done my bidding, I've done everything Skyport has asked of me and I've missed too much of your lives already before I died.... I got another chance to be apart of that. I'm not going to waste it, not anymore." He shook his head and looked at his sister "My family is the best part of my life and I don't want to loose that..."

Daphne kept her gun pulled and her mind on high alert as she listened him. Her expression softened slightly as he told the story, the memory clearly very dear to her as well; and after a moment of hesitation, she turned on the safety on her weapon and slowly lowered it. Her mind was racing and her emotions were in overdrive; shock, disbelief, grief, and now relief all warring for attention inside her. She needed facts. Tangible information that she could process and then decide what to do from there.

"I can only deal with what's in front of me," she said, holstering her firearm but keeping the distance between them. Her guard was clearly still up. "I want to know how, I want to know why, and I want to know who else knows. In that order, preferably."

Where: the university

Who: Yvonne and Claire ( @chaosandcrimson )

Yvonne was on her way to work where she was passing by the school. There in the parking lot she saw the familiar women. Stopping in her tracks she looked at her in shock. "Claire?!" She said almost too excited "Oh my God, of course you're here. You're here and my brother just became the luckiest man alive..." She said almost sarcastically. But the fact that Claire was there did kinda prove that things just worked out for Zeke in ways they didn't for Yvonne. She glanced at the school then at Claire and she could see something was wrong "wait, did you just come out from seeing my brother?" She reached out to take a hold of Claire's hand. "Just say the word and I'll beat his ass"

Where: deans place

Who: Dean and Harper ( @chaosandcrimson )

He didn't plan for this to happen, he'd been so good. No attachments except for family, not until he got on his feet. But Harper came out of nowhere and she was just as witty as she was Beautiful. He couldn't say no to her. So they ended up back at his place, again and again and again. Nearly weekly after their group sessions. it was the morning after and she was sleeping soundly in his bed. Her blonde Locks pooled around her shoulders and on the pillow. He leaned against the doorway waiting for breakfast to finish cooking when she shifted awake

"Well, good morning Sunshine." He chuckled "you know you snore in your sleep. It's very sexy" he teased scrunching his nose as he talked. Even though it was the opposite. He had to check on her multiple times because she was so quiet. "I have breakfast almost ready."

[theluckyonerp]

"Seeing you today took the wind right out of my chest Claire" he said quickly. "I'm not.... giving up I just-" he tried to think of how to phrase this "Sorry is all I have to give right now....there are a Million things I want to say to you...." He took a step towards her and reached out to her arm "there are are million things I want to say and nearly all of them are the wrong thing." His voice was soft and shaky "Just let me get my mind straight, and I promise we'll figure this out."

He dropped his hand and took a step back. Nodding he looked at her with his own tear filled eyes. "Okay...uh goodbye Claire...*

"Seeing you today took the wind right out of my chest Claire" he said quickly. "I'm not.... giving up I just-" he tried to think of how to phrase this "Sorry is all I have to give right now....there are a Million things I want to say to you...." He took a step towards her and reached out to her arm "there are are million things I want to say and nearly all of them are the wrong thing." His voice was soft and shaky "Just let me get my mind straight, and I promise we'll figure this out."

He dropped his hand and took a step back. Nodding he looked at her with his own tear filled eyes. "Okay...uh goodbye Claire...*

Claire wanted to feel better when he apologised. Before this very moment, she had thought that she would feel better if she could at least get some closure from what happened. But standing there in front of Zeke, staring at the man she had been utterly convinced she was going to spend the rest of her life with, all she felt was exhausted. It was exhausting fighting for a relationship that he had already seemingly given up on. "Yeah," she said simply, feeling all of the fight leave her body as she blinked away her tears, her tone a mixture of disbelief and resignation. "Yeah, I'm sorry too. I'm sorry that I spent months agonising over why I couldn't stop you from leaving. I'm sorry that I came here expecting more from the man I spent ten whole years with. I'm sorry that you threw away a decade long relationship and all you can say to me is fucking sorry."

She turned to leave, but stopped halfway out of the room. "Do you want to be the man everyone thinks you are?" she asked without turning around. "Then put in the fucking work. Until then, I guess we don't really have anything to talk about."

Prince Chuckled again when Kelly didn't make any moves for the food. Prince made the very difficult decision to pull away from Kelly and rested his forehead against Kellys. "We've got all night...You better get it before someone steals it. I promise no one is going to steal me if you leave...." He said with a bright smile.

[theluckyonerp]

"Really? That actually worked?" She said a bit surprised, suddenly feeling a bit more sober than she did moments ago "Uh sure, yeah..." She smiled softly and started to follow him. "So you live down here now? What did Mommy and Daddy disown you for being too cool or something?" She said with an awkward laugh. She knew the Winters were loaded, that was just commonly known information. But she didn't think Their parents were heartless.

raymond held his hands up in defense when she stepped forward. sighing he gave a slight nod. "deal, you want to head to my place then? i'm over in the lower district now." closer to the graveyard for reasons but she didn't need to know that, though she'd find out soon anyway.

[theluckyonerp]

As their arguments always went she was right. He should have, but he panicked. Despite what happened at the party he should have just stayed and explained to Claire what he had heard. Why it was the last straw from him. But he didn't. He beat up the leading man and ran home packing. He did love Claire, More than life itself, she was- Is his world and he always said there could be a million people in the Audience at a show but he only cared about her. But when push came to shove he folded "I'm sorry Claire..." It was all he could say. When she pulled her hand away from his arm he wanted it back. He wanted her back but he was in no position to ask that of her. He looked down and away from her. If she cried he knew he would start crying. "I'm sorry I'm not the man everyone thinks I am..."

Claire was used to Zeke being a little dramatic—he was an actor, after all. But in the decade that they had been together they had never been on such different pages before. She was starting to wonder if they were even in the same book now. "I expect you to talk to me like a man who claimed that he loved me for ten years of my life," she replied, letting go of his arm as she felt tears start to form in her eyes. She couldn't tell if she was crying from anger or sadness or both. "Yeah, what happened wasn't great. And I would prefer if it didn't happen again. But instead of talking to me, and trying to figure it out together, you bailed!" She took a deep breath. "You know, out of all of the things I've thought of you, I never once thought that you were a coward. Until now."

Bri'elle Was right, it was a surprise. And Normally Eleanor would be excited to see her little sister. But today she felt like a stranger. All she felt was the anger that lingered from the other night when Chris came and saw her. She thought it was a dream at first. But the cut on her hand made it very clear it was real.

"how are things?" She huffed a laugh as she closed the door behind her however she wasn't amused. "How long have you known Bri'elle...? How long has it been that you didn't tell me that Chris was Alive....." She had to cut right to it. It was eating away at her. "Or tell me I'm crazy to think that my favorite people in my life lied to me and it was a hallucination..."

"I brought breakfast!" Bri'elle sing songed as her sister opened the door, holding up the drink carrier and a bag of breakfast sandwiches "It wasn't a surprise hang out if I told you about it beforehand, now would it?" She easily slunk past her sister into the room, setting the stuff down on the table. She had insisted Chris reach out to his twin, but she hadn't really been keeping tabs on him.

"So.... how are things?"

Tw: Mentions of Mental illness, Medication, Hallucinations, Suicide, Drinking, Glass breaking, Describing a burnt fake body (??) and Blood.

It was late and Eleanor knew she needed to go to bed. However the case she was currently working on was keeping her up. Or at least that's what she was telling herself. In reality it was the usual issues that were keeping her awake. Chris, the ever looming feeling that he was still alive. She felt it deep in her chest. She kept look at the files in her hand but she just kept reading the same line over and over again with no progress. ”Fuck it..” she whispered and slammed the file shut. 

“You were always one to quit when things got tough” 

Eleanor jumped in her chair knocking over the glass of wine she handed on the floor. It shattered on impact and she wasn't sure if that scared her or the voice she had heard in the darkness behind her.It couldn't be, and she wouldn't speak it into existence. 

She ignored it, hearing the familiar voice many many times before. The doctors had told her it was normal when someone close to died to have this happen. She would just need to go back and tell them the hallucinations had started....again. She leaned down to pick up the glass as carefully as she could. “Ow!Damnit” Unfortunately it wasn't careful enough. 

“In all my year, I never thought I would hear a swear come out of my twins mouth” 

There was silence and then footsteps echoing as they got closer to her. She didn't want to look. She was too scared. What would he look like? Would he look like he did the day of the accident? Clean and well dressed as he always did or would he look like some horrible mess of Chard skin and bones that she had to look at when they had asked her to identify the body. He was cold,so so cold.

His shoes were clean...shiny even. new. New shoes? Expensive shoes, her mind had conjured up new, expensive shoes for her brother. She did always get the best for him when it came to gifts. He wore them.....when he needed to tell her something bad. Something their father had done that he needed to clean up. It was so unfair, for all of them. But especially Chris, he had so much potential and it was dimmed by that horrible man they called a father. 

“El, Eleanor , look at me...please?“ 

Her eyes finally met his, her eyes....their eyes, the ones they shared. He looked younger....But also older and tired. And Pale. and so so cold. ”Christopher...” She squeaked. She looked at him not even taking into the consideration the pooling blood on her hand and the floor. The shattered glass and the wine that was mixing in with it all. 

“Here, let me help-”

“NO! STOP!” She yelled, put her hand up and stopped him in his tracks. “You're not here, you're not real, I just....miss you and I'm drunk and tired and overworked.....And I need to take my medication.” She stood up and moved to grab the ice bucket her wine bottle had once sat in. The Ice long melted after her work session, tossing the glass in her hand into the bucket. Before she could clean the rest. She felt the hand on her shoulder. Her eyes filled with tears. He was cold, so so cold.

The glass shards clinked into the bucked, making the water splash inside. He had picked up the rest and put it in the bucket. Pushing him away then he was done and moving away from him to get a towel for her hand she sniffled trying to fight the tears. “Go away...whatever the hell you are you need to get out of my house.” 

“it's me Eleanor, It's Chris I'm alive” 

“No, no you're not, be-” She hiccuped as the sobs became uncontrollable ”Because, My chris wouldn't do this to me, he wouldn't-” Shaking her head she went down to the floor to ground herself. “He wouldn’t have left me to get like this for 6 years...you were alive for 6 years and you...-” she covered her her mouth with her hand and just sobbed. 

Chris went to her and pulled her into his chest as he kneeled to the floor, She didn't fight. She grabbed him and held him tighter than he thought was possible. “I'm here Eleanor, I'm here and I'm never going anywhere ever again.” He cooed in her hair as he held her. “Skyport restructured my skin, and some parts of my body to keep me functioning. I'm more Machine than man now but...I'm here. It's why I had to hide for so long. They made me keep this from you. From all of you.” He explained in a hushed tone. “I am so sorry, I should have told you and everyone sooner its just went Bri'Elle found me I-” 

“What...?” she pulled away to look at him. searching his face.” Bri...Bri'elle knew...and she didn't tell me? w-who“ she pushed him away again. “Who else knew before me....” the feeling of his arms around her lingered. He was cold, so so cold.

“They all do....They all found me. Except Daphne...and you... I just went to both of you..” 

Elenor looked at him, her sadness twisting into what looked like betrayal. “You have been alive and told everyone and this whole time they have known and just treated me like I'm some nut case who couldn't handle it?” 

“Eleanor that's not-” 

“no, you don't get to come into my home and have this dramatic reveal and just expect me to be okay with this...” She furrowed her brows at him. “I destroyed my life for 4 years after you left because I couldn't cope with not having you around, I Wished, prayed, Manifested anything for you to come back that by some miracle you were still alive and here you are and I come to find out that my entire family knows and thinks I am insane....and some nut case one bad day way from ending it all!” It wasn’t too far from the truth but she had hoped they had more faith in her especially Chris. “I don't really care how you're alive, I need you to leave...” 

“Eleanor...”

“LEAVE CHRIS, I can't trust you...or ANY of my family apparently....” 

He nodded “I'm sorry Eleanor....really I am...” 

As he walked out the door Eleanor let out the breath she was holding and lowered back down to floor and began to sob once more. How could trust anyone now...when she couldn't even trust her own family? She wrapped her arms around herself, like she had so many times before. She really was alone...she supposed she always was. The others had moved out of the home that was once filled with people. She squeezed herself a little, for comfort.

But she was cold. So So Cold.

[theluckyonerp]

Okay, so it was him and he remembered her name that was a good start. And it confirmed in her hazy mind that he was real "Long time no see?" She said a bit confused. "You leave to go on tour without so much as a goodbye...and then don't tell me you're back in this shit I hole and all you can say to me is 'Long time no see?'" She took a few steps towards him raising a brow at him "you have a lot of explaining to do Winters...." She held up the bottle and the baggie of treats. "I'll share, if you spill....deal?"

it wasn’t that raymond was avoiding his friends from before the accident, the accident just happened when he was finally back from tour so all of his attention and focus was on making sure he wouldn’t be found out. he was done with work and on his way back home, ignoring the world as he usually did until something hit his back? it wasn’t heavy so it wasn’t a brick, probably or maybe he developed a new super power that large rocks felt like tiny pebbles. “what. . .?” it took him a second to register who that voice was attached to and when he did he mumbled a, “oh shit.” turning around he gave a kind of lopsided smile. “long time no see yvonne.”

Zeke was sitting at the desk in the class room when he saw Lark come in out of the corner of his eye. "Yeah! That's fine Lark, I'm just grading a few tests from the last class." He shuffled a few of the papers and glanced up at her "youuu need to talk about it?" ,

who: Lark and Zeke ( @theluckyonerp )

"Is it okay if I stay in here for a little? I just need some place quiet or I feel like my brain might explode" Lark asked, fairly certain that this was a free part of the day for him.

[theluckyonerp]

"Hey, Corbett..." He was heading to the classroom for his next Session when he had approached him. Stopping in his tracks "Hold on, you took something from another student you knew you were allergic to? I'll take them...just so that I don't lose one of my students..." He took the nicely wrapped candies and put them in his pocket and started walking again "you sure this student didn't want you dead?"

who: Corbett and Zeke ( @theluckyonerp )

"Oh hey, Mr. Marrow" Corbett fell into step alongside the other, reaching into their pocket to pull out a plastic wrapped rectangle as they walked, and holding it out for the drama teacher. "Do you like peanut butter cups? Some girl gave me some, but I can't really have them or I'll, y'know, shuffle off this mortal coil and all"

[theluckyonerp]

"Yeah, because I've been really looking forward to that 'fucking spaghetti'. And I'm hungry and you know how I get when I'm hungry!!" His tone wasn't angry just kinda that of an annoyed teenager "what do you expect me to do Claire? Tell you I miss you? That I'm sorry? That these past few months have been hell because I haven't been apart from you this long since we started dating and its killing me?"

Her touch was enough to send him spiraling, Almost caving in as his heart picked up in his chest. He wanted nothing more to pretend that nothing happened and go back to normal. but that night kept replaying in his head "And what if I do go back Claire? How long till another creep tries to hurt you, and I punch a guy because he oversteps with you..."

"Yeah, you told me that, didn't ask how I felt about it, and then ran away," Claire shot back, crossing her arms over her chest indignantly. Her gaze dropped to the phone in Zeke's hand, but she barely had time to react to the fact that he had actually gotten a new phone before he was opening his mouth again, saying even more things that she couldn't believe he had the audacity to say. "That's it? I chase you down to Dallas and all you're gonna tell me is that you think they're serving fucking spaghetti for lunch?"

Holding his gaze, she reached to grab his arm to prevent him from leaving. "Yeah, I should be in New York. But do you know who else should be in New York? You."

[theluckyonerp]

Prince Chuckled again when Kelly didn't make any moves for the food. Prince made the very difficult decision to pull away from Kelly and rested his forehead against Kellys. "We've got all night...You better get it before someone steals it. I promise no one is going to steal me if you leave...." He said with a bright smile.

"Oh, yeah" Kelly murmured against Prince's lips, not making any real moves to pull away just yet. "I should probably get that before it gets cold" he added, though still made no moves to do so, kissing him again instead.
