She nodded, realizing he probably knew. And they would now have to totally skirt around the subject. If only there were another fireplace in the house! She handed Script her hot chocolate and just sat there awkwardly.
((I swear I wrote this before seeing Script's post! We just happen to have identical wording! ^_^))

Maggie sighed. Oh, dear, God, why. She put on a smile, but moved away from Skittery, just a little. "So, uh...how was your day, Clara?"

"Um...g-good." She'd spent most of it selling papers and freezing to death while looking for Goblin because he hadn't come home last night. She'd found him and Cav extremely hung over in Brooklyn. But she wasn't about to mention any of that. "Uh, how 'bout yours?"

((Aw, thanks guys. Excedrin is my God.))
"Oh it's been great so far. We played out in the snow for a bit," Skittery said, scooting closer to Script. Why had she moved away?

Her smile got a little tighter, her eyes a little wider when he moved back to her. "We made snow angels!" Oh, why must her voice be so high-pitched when she was in freak-out mode??

((Yay!  ) "Oh." Wraith smiled shyly. "I like the snow too. I...actually made a few snow angels out by the bridge." She and Tara used to do that all the time. She hadn't seen Fire around lately, and she was pretty much going through life lonely and sexually frustrated, but she wasn't going to mention that, either. |

"Yeah, it was fun," Skittery said, trying not to sound awkward. What was happening right now?

They sat there in awkward silence, and Script shifted uncomfortably. "I, uh...how's...your...new friend..?" She took a breath. Jesus Christ, could this get any worse?

Wraith almost fell off the chair. "She...she, uh...hasn't been around lately..." She's probably run off and left, just like Kennedy. Because Sebastian and I are cursed and everyone will always leave us and we're doomed to be alone forever. Nope, it couldn't get worse.

"Oh, who's this new friend of yours? She live here?" Skittery asked innocently, raising his eyebrows over at Wraith.

She had to swallow a couple times before her answer came out in a tiny voice. "Um, yeah. Her name's Firecracker."

"She's the, uh, redheaded one," Script interjected. Her insides were twisting uncomfortably, and she shifted again, nervous. Why did she bring Firecracker up in the first place?? "Skittery's a painter!" She blurted it out, then winced.

Skittery sputtered, blushing. "Mags, come on!" he murmured under his breath.

"Really?" Wraith blurted out, so desperate for a change of subject that she didn't even catch his discomfort. "Um, what do you paint?"
