Me too. [ She's not normally such a downer, but it's difficult to balance the line between optimism and naïveté. ] But everything that happened yesterday and with Beau... it seems cruel.
...ah, well... I want the power to deal with a monster that's been stalking me since I was young. My friends have agreed to help me with it, but... I'd rather take care of it myself before they get hurt.
[ Yuel is on the floor of the dog park, surrounded by dogs (good) and bottles of alcohol (bad), pouring them into a glass when she spots Shi Qingxuan, smiling and waving at her. ]
That's a relief... someone told me they thought the house might be on fire when we visit it, tomorrow, so I was worried that if someone spent the night there they'd have been breathing in smoke overnight.
[on the one hand, she promised not to drink on the weekends... on the other, a single drink won't get her drunk.
she takes the drink.]
Thank you. [eleanoooor. :c god this is sad. i'm sad. bring eleanor back.] She was... a very friendly person. It's difficult to imagine anyone wanting to hurt her.
