Elyse headed over. He said she didn’t need to call, but she liked to. It felt polite and he had delicious drinks ready for when she got there. She took the mimosa. And took a sip, but she didn’t sit down. She had too much nervous energy. It had been kept in place when they were planning, but now everything was coming at her at once.
As soon as she started talking, everything came out at once. ”Nox is back and my father is in town, so naturally it’s all going down today. And Nox wants my help to draw him out of HQ, and I said yes and now all my emotions are going at a million miles an hour. I have two hours and I need to calm down or otherwise my father will know something is up. I’m upset because he killed mom and upset that he’s going to be killed and I don’t know what to think and I’m freaking out and I need to calm down and I don’t know how. This week has sucked so much and it’s all happening so fast - so much faster than I thought.” Elyse had been pacing nervously throughout the whole speech and she hadn’t stopped to breathe. Her pulse was rapid and her breathing quick as she sat down, realizing that at least getting all of it out had helped.
