She side, turning to lean back against the railing. "I feel empty without him, Clara. Completely empty. But he lied to me, big time." She chewed on her lip, tugging on a piece of hair. "I thought about the timing of everything. The first time we...we slept together...he was still pretending at that point. Do you have any idea how awful that makes me feel?"

Wraith winced. "I can imagine." She looked down at the roof, tracing patterns on it with her finger. "I can't apologize for him. I mean, he's my brother, so I just kind of do my best to understand where he's coming from. Which is...well...usually someplace that no one else is coming from, so it's not always easy."

She sniffled a little, but didn't cry. "I miss him, Clara." She bit her lip, chewing on it. "Despite everything, despite being hurt and disappointed...I miss him."

She patted Script awkwardly on the shoulder. "I'm sorry, Maggie. About everything. If...if there's anything you want me to tell him..." She realized Script and Goblin still lived in the same house, but they clearly hadn't re-established communication since The Break-up.

((I love that it's a thing. Like with capital letters. It was like an Event. Hehe.))
She sighed. "Just tell him...tell him I hope he's okay. Tell him I'm not mad at him." She looked over at her. "Does he...does he know about me and Skittery?"

((Oh, it so was.))
Wraith shook her head. "Pearsons are very careful with information," she explained solemnly. "We tell people what they need to know. I figured he didn't need to know about that right now."

((Yes! <3))
She nodded. "Thanks. I--I appreciate that." She licked her lips, trying to suppress the gnaw of guilt in her stomach. "Has he...said anything about me?"

Wraith found herself wondering where to draw the confidentiality lines. "He, uh...doesn't really talk about anything else."

Maggie sat up a little more. "Really? What...what did he say?" She looked at her a little pleadingly.

She sighed. "It's...mostly guilt. Lots and lots and lots of guilt." Wraith was actually getting seriously worried. She was afraid he might do something stupid, though she wasn't sure exactly what. "Uh, he keeps asking me to check up on you, see how you're doing. And there might've been something about how you're the only person he's ever really been in love with."
Of course, he'd been drunk at that point, and Sebastian never got drunk--that alone was enough to scare her.

She bit her lip, her insides flip-flopping all over the place. "He...he really loves me..? He...he wasn't just saying that..?
((I want to snuggle Goblin soooo bad! Can we play the future thread, too?? I want them to be happy!))

((Hehe, sure!))
Wraith's eyes widened. "How good an actor do you think he is? Even Sebastian has his limits." She looked Script in the eye--with the exact same eyes as her brother, incidentally. "Script, he might not have gotten involved with you if it weren't for the plan, but that's not because he didn't love you. It's because he was scared, because of Riddle and...you know...everything. But of course he loves you. He loved you from the start."

((Yay! I'm very curious to see how they end up getting back together.))
She averted her eyes, sniffling again. "I was the one who screwed this up...he'll...he'll never forgive me, Clara, not after breaking up with him and messing around with another guy, like, right after."

"I think he's a lot more worried about you forgiving him." Wraith gave up on the awkward patting and just draped a comforting arm around her. "I think...maybe you two should talk again. Maybe not right away, but after you've both had some time to sort things out, you know? Who knows, there might be hope for the two of you yet." Hell, if I can convince my new friend to quit mooning over a married woman, there might be hope for all of us.

She bit the inside of her lip, nodding slowly. "If you think he'll talk to me...then maybe. Maybe after things calm down." She smirked, blushing. "After I can stop crying every time I pass the boys' bunkroom, for one thing."
