Shit's fucked up, y'know?
SkyBlueAnguish
I know what's fucked up. That's why we're here, right?
takes a deep breath Look, I didn't want to come here today, but I knew you'd be here. And I needed to see you.
SkyBlueAnguish
looks at Danni Why now? What's so urgent?
narrows her eyes 'Cause I can't keep this shit to myself anymore. I need someone to vent to, and you're the only one who gets it.
SkyBlueAnguish
Well, let it out then, Danni. We've got plenty of walls here.
rolls her eyes Yeah, very funny. Look, it's been a month since my parents... went down. And I'm still trying to process it all.
SkyBlueAnguish
Damn, Danni. That's rough. How you holding up?
pauses, clenches her fists Holding up? Are you fucking kidding me? I'm barely keeping my head above water, SkyBlue. It's like...
SkyBlueAnguish
places a comforting hand on Danni's shoulder Like there's a fucking storm raging inside you, huh?
glares at SkyBlueAnguish, her voice dripping with venom Damn right there's a storm! It's raging, burning, consuming me from the inside out!
SkyBlueAnguish
smirks Then let it rage, Danni. Let it burn. We'll weather this shit together.
snaps her gaze towards SkyBlueAnguish, her voice laced with determination You think I haven't been trying?
SkyBlueAnguish
I don't doubt you, Danni. But you're not alone in this. Remember that.
takes a step back and crosses her arms Look, I appreciate the support and all, but I can't keep leaning on people.
SkyBlueAnguish
chuckles Lean on me, Danni. You're heavier than you think.
rolls her eyes, smirking Heavy, huh? Don't flatter yourself, SkyBlue. I'm not your damsel in distress.
SkyBlueAnguish
laughs softly Never said you were, Danni. Just said you could lean on me. Big difference.
throws her hands up in exasperation Lean on you? Yeah, like I'd trust you with my secrets. We're family, SkyBlue, but we're not close.
SkyBlueAnguish
leans back against the wall, looking thoughtful Close doesn't mean blood, Danni. It means trust. And I trust you.
sighs heavily Fine, trust me if you want. But don't expect me to spill my guts right here. We'll talk later, after practice.
SkyBlueAnguish
Okay, Danni. After practice. Here, whenever you're ready.
nods curtly Alright, SkyBlue. Later then.
