bus is here now

[longwei2go]

alright I'll be waiting
front door's open

[me_matey]

[[ transition to action or do you wanna do a log? ]]

ACTION bc I'm lazy

[longwei2go]

[ as promised, the front door is wide open at the Longwei residence. that's fine though since Zwei is sitting attentively on the porch being the cutest damn lookout anyone has ever seen.

a rare sound echoes from inside the living room — Yin's metal fingers picking tuneless notes on an old acoustic guitar. ]

[me_matey]

-May knew her way in, leaning in to give Zwei some pets and pats before she found her way to the source of the sound. She hadn't seen Yin since the incident, been so focused and so busy doing anything else but worrying about 'what now', but finally coming across her and sitting beside her it was... impossible to keep up that mask that said everything was fine.

She wrapped an arm around her friend's shoulder and leaned in, careful not to bump the neck of the guitar as she did so. It was on Yin's good shoulder... and she could feel the tears.-

[longwei2go]

[ this is rough. that's not new to either of them, but it was rare for them to let those barriers break down (without outside influence grinding down their walls) since they were both so tough. they had to be. some days it felt like they only had the other, no matter who else fit under the umbrella of family or friends.

heck, for Yin, it's worse now for her since her dad's contract was extended and her sis is gone fulfilling her ambitions. which was good! it was good; for her sister. Yin couldn't help but feel lonely about the whole thing, but that didn't mean she couldn't make for a good shoulder to cry on.

she'll just... stop picking at the attempts at figuring out the chords to "Wonderwall" long enough to bring her fleshy arm around May's side and pat her back soothingly. ] It's alright, May. Let it go. It's just you, me, and the dog, and Zwei's not gonna tell anyone.

[ unless he magically developed the ability to talk. which, honestly, would not be the weirdest thing to happen in the past few months. ]

[me_matey]

-She hadn't really needed Yin's permission, but knowing she had it helped break the chains holding her back, regardless. She wept, clinging tightly to the other woman as she did so, shoulders shaking.

She'd worked so hard, for so long, to have her ideal life. And it was all gone. And the odds of her ever getting it back...-

[longwei2go]

[ Yin knew something of the struggles. her own life has been a hell of a roller coaster, but at least in the midst of all of that she always had people to support her. a roof over her head. food on the table. the option to have legit, paying jobs and have actual spending money and never want for much.

to see all that taken away from one of her dearest friends. well. it made her just about the angriest she's ever been. ]

Someone's gonna pay for this. Count on it.

[me_matey]

I'm so... so tired... -May sniffled, rubbing her face into Yin's shoulder a bit, knowing the other wouldn't care about being used as a makeshift towel.-

It never seems to stop. Working to get this far, working to get it back, working to stop the people messing with me...
