THE NOTEBOARD

There is a dry-erase board on Jaime's door at his house with a marker tied by a string to it. You're welcome to leave little notes and things for him. Please date your posts in the subject line! So...you know. In case I ever want to reference them...:)

[THREE RINGS AND-]

Hh--

Hey. Hi.

[tothecloud.livejournal.com]

Jaime. [ She hesitates. She doesn't want to sound fussy or as upset as she is. But she's holding her breath for bad news. ] You-- got in a fight? Are you hurt?

[scarabsuited]

No, I'm. No, not hurt. Really.

Just.

[a pause, trying to find a voice that isn't cracking.]

I let Scarab get the better of me.

[tothecloud.livejournal.com]

[ A pause. And a little exhale. Then slowly: ]

W-What do you mean?

[scarabsuited]

I mean. I.

[hrjngfsd shaky exhale.] I killed something. I don't know--I mean. I don't know really what it was or. Who.

But. Then I didn't stop, Scarab just. Kept bulking up and...God. Abby, I could've...[he can't even finish that thought.]

[tothecloud.livejournal.com]

Oh.

[ It's sinking in. ]

Oh. Ohmygod, Jaime. Jaime--

[scarabsuited]

[it's hard to talk without letting out a huff to hide tears.] I really, really messed up. I can't--

[tothecloud.livejournal.com]

It's-- It's going to be okay. I. Are you--?

[ She hesitates. Tries to calm herself down so she can say what she means. ]

This. It... It doesn't make you a bad person.

[scarabsuited]

[quietly:] Titans don't kill.

[tothecloud.livejournal.com]

But-- you. You didn't. You didn't mean it, right?
