[So. Yeah. That elevator. That... weird hug. It sure turned into... well. A thing. A thing that Blake couldn't quite stop thinking about. She knew it was stupid and wrong and not quite right, but... she and Kallen were starting to become friends!

She can't let this go silent and awkward any longer. Let's just... test the waters with a text. A thought-out and well-worded one. Yes, good.]

Hey.

[NAILED IT.]

[halfbloodqueen]

[Oh.

Yeah, it's Blake. That elevator thing sure had been... a thing. She's sure not expecting a text from her.]

sup

[kittyears]

Nothing much.

[She starts writing "You doing okay?" but quickly deletes that. Too direct!]

Long time, no see. How have you been?

[halfbloodqueen]

it hasnt been that long only like a few weeks

ive been ok

did you go to the thing

[kittyears]

[Weeks is long for her! Well, great. Now she sounds desperate.]

No way. I've had enough pet nonsense to last me a lifetime.

That aside, I have a few words to say about all that.

[It's an understatement, but she's trying to keep it cool.]

[halfbloodqueen]

yeah i dont blame you

it was... pretty fucked up

[Not gonna lie. Kallen's still kinda upset.]

[kittyears]

So, did you cause a ruckus?

[She's curious, okay.]

[halfbloodqueen]

what no of course not





maybe a little one

[kittyears]

You're all about making a scene, it seems.

[halfbloodqueen]

wtf no im not

but you try staying and watching a slave auction and not getting pissed off

[kittyears]

And that's why I didn't go.

[halfbloodqueen]

it was so messed up

this world is so fucking rotten

[kittyears]

It's true.

[...okay, come on, Blake. The whole point of texting Kallen was to lighten things up!]

I've met some pretty decent people here, though.

[kittyears]

That and I kidn of figured we were friends enough for me to randonly text you.

[It takes her several minutes to add a follow up text.]

Is there anyone you've met taht's
I don't know... no longer here?
Not acquaintances or anyone you've met in passing, but just peopel who have actually made this world less exhausting to be a part of?

text;

[halfbloodqueen]

yeah i guess
people i met here and ones i knew from home both
why do you ask

text;

[kittyears]

[Simply asked, as Blake sips at an amber liquid that makes her head swim...]

Do you ever wonder where they go?
or why we don't get to leave?

text;

[halfbloodqueen]

of course
it doesnt make any sense that wed have to pay so much money to get out
but then other people just vanish
its creepy
