[log] we're not gonna make it [closed]

Characters: House, Steph, Zach
Location NN5 - Building 203
Date: Morning 181
Summary: The aftermath of murder night
Warnings: Will add as necessary! Will discuss murder and eyeless kids.


203: A rather boring apartment, but maybe that's a relief. It has a living room, attached kitchen, two small bedrooms, and a bathroom. The whole thing is sparsely decorated, but there's a whole wall of the kitchen plastered in silly children's drawings. None are of particular note except that there are a lot of colors and it looks like some were traced from picture books. Rocket ships, motorcycles, and hot rods have been added to the drawings in gel pen.

[ She gets down on her knees to hug him tight. ]

It's not any worse than it's ever been. I'm not pretending.

[majorlazer]

[He tenses up involuntarily, and forces himself to relax.]

Steph, I - I'm terrified.

[spoileralert]

I know. I know, baby. I am too.

[ She can't keep the tears back anymore. She has the feeling she's going to be crying a lot today. ]

[majorlazer]

[He swallows, hands curling around her as she holds him.]

We need to go get Kesara.

[spoileralert]

Yeah. [ She takes a deep, shaky breath and lets it out. ] Yeah, we do.

House should get enough distance while we pack up.

[majorlazer]

He's going to go the other way anyway. Deeper in, not out. It doesn't make sense that he would go back.

[spoileralert]

He won't want to be too close when we start to move.

[ She pulls away now to dry her face. ]

[majorlazer]

No, I know. Let's pack up.

[spoileralert]

[ She nods her agreement and heads off to the other room to do just that. ]
