WHO: Seras Victoria [
dawnsbullet], Pip Bernadotte [
french_braid]
WHAT: CONFRONTATIONS?
WHERE: Their house.
WHEN: Evening.
She creeps quietly through the house starting from the top floor where her room is and slowly making her way through the hall, past all the rooms in the house. She thinks she can hear him downstairs in the living room -- No, idiot, it's the back porch, she tells herself. But there's a nagging feeling in the back of her head that tells her she has to be sure.
Because how does she explain the shadows that have taken up the empty space where her arm had been, months ago? They're real, she knows that, but she can't feel him like she could before. And if the Captain was here, on this island, why was it coming back, the last of her 'abilities'?
So even if Seras could hear the faint, distant sounds of someone outside on the back porch(so quiet shes not sure she's imagining it or not because why is he outside?), she's still peering into each room she passes. She sneaks down the stairs, along the downstairs hallway while observing each room she passes until she comes to the living room.
Still tip-toeing(so the floors don't creak, like that's really going to matter because Pip's hearing isn't as good as hers), she makes her way to the back door and looks out onto the porch. Her eyes fall on her Captain, smoking, and she lets out a long sigh of relief. "You're beginning to lose it, Seras..." She mumbles to herself.
But then she has to question how?
