Waking up in her own bed it takes her mind a minute to process all that has occurred. Was it a nightmare? Oh wait. Burying her hands into her hair she tugs tightly trying to keep herself from reeling as everything that happened comes rushing back in one giant vivid wave. Taking a breath she pushes herself to the edge of the bed, noting that her

[He carries a casserole dish filled with warm boiled apple dumplings. Walking up slowly onto the porch, Alex sets the dish aside while kneeling before Opal. Resting a hand lightly on her knee, he speaks softly.]

Come on, get inside before you catch cold.

[ noting his presence on the porch, her gaze remains fixated on the street until his hand comes to rest on her knee. flinching, she casts solemn eyes downward to fall him. watching his mouth move it takes her a good minute to realize that words are coming out of it and even then she could careless. shaking her head she let's out a hoarse whisper. ]

I'm okay.

[keystone_kidd]

[Patting her knee softly, Alex takes a seat next to her.]

Just need some fresh air, hm?

[theinlet]

[ watching him carefully she scoots over allowing him more room. tilting her head to look at him, she rolls her eyes. ]

My sister's head is exploded all over the street. I don't need air, Alex.
I need...[ she throws her hands up completely flustered. ] I don't even know what the hell I need at this point!

[It feels awkward, going to the house of someone Logan doesn't even know. Hell, of someone on the literal opposite coast of him, seemingly half a world away. However, he found it necessary, thinking on it throughout the day. He was (is?) friends with Lulu, even if it was mostly through jeering at each other on video games, but now that everything happened physically it almost feels like a duty to do something.

What?

[ouragans]

[Subconsciously, he shrinks back, as though if she moves too fast, he'll have to take off like a freaked out squirrel. He even raises the bag of coffee like that's somehow going to protect him.]

Uh, sorry, but... You're Tallulah's sister, right?

[theinlet]

[ that coffee won't protect you! shrugging, she sinks back into the bench. ]
Why? Come to kill me too? Make it like some sort of game, kill the whole family and you get a dollar?
