Emily never really ventured out to Echo Creek much. That was mostly because...well, she spent a lot of her younger years in Echo Creek. Only until she was about four and her parents relocated to Coolsville in their grandparents manor. Sometimes she wondered if her life would be different if they had never made that move. If they had just....kept Emily there a little longer. Would she still be alive? Would she be in love with someone else? It was something that bothered her more than she wanted to admit to herself, so she tended to just stick to what she knew in Coolsville for the sake of her mind. Nothing could hurt her if she just stuck with what she knew of her new life and left the skeletons and ghosts of her old one behind. 

She was in such a good place now, but despite that her heart was heavy with these thoughts and burdens. She wondered if she would ever truly feel like she had moved on. She didn’t want to bother Victor with all of this, so here she was, at a bar she never went to, trying to escape her demons with the bitter taste of alcohol. And for a little bit it worked and she was okay and almost even went to dance. Before she could act on it though, she stopped herself, sighing softly. “Will life ever feel easy?” she wondered aloud, getting the attention of a blonde that was sitting next to her. “Oh...I’m sorry! I’m sure you don’t want to hear the sadness of a stranger at a bar. That isn’t normally why people go to these places.”

As composed as Charlie was, his urges couldn’t always be ignored. Twisted, dark, and haunting games had to be played or else he would be driven further along the edge until that game was the only game he could play. He had a fun little chase with a guy who was almost too cute to let go. But he couldn’t do that. Things got a little too rough and before Charlie knew it there was blood on his hands that satisfied the urges for the most part, but left him in quite a dilemma. Honestly, he hadn’t even remembered going to this alleyway or really most of what happened and that was because he had chosen it that way. 

He was close enough to Wonderland to clean himself up and he did just that, even though he couldn’t quite get the stains out of everything, he just changed his clothes and tried his best to keep moving. Because if he stopped, he froze, if he froze, he started a new chase. He was going to go straight home and let it all out there, for the sake of appearances more than anything, when he stopped himself by that alleyway again. He needed to get rid of this. He had to clean up. But his mind was far too gone to focus and he just started cursing to himself under his breath as he sighed and kept moving. He was getting sloppy. He doesn’t know why. But each time had felt like it wasn’t enough. Like he wasn’t doing enough and he was waiting too long and now he could hardly contain himself. Was this what a spiral was? He had never not been in control before. He had always been the prodigy, but the one doomed to destroy everything he touched. 

He did destroy everything he touched. And it was starting to bug him. And the only thing he could think of as a reason for that was the company he was keeping. He needed to put an end to this. To all of this. 

He ran his fingers through his hair and just started...walking. He didn’t know where he was going he was just trying to calm himself down before he did something else he wasn’t ready to clean up. When he bumped into Ella he cursed himself long and hard. Ella. That was the worst person to run into right now. Someone so sweet and pure and kind that all Charlie wanted to do was destroy her and never look back. He took a deep breath. “Ella.” he didn’t look at her. He couldn’t. “I...you need to run. Away. Now.”

Ella!!! I'm glad you sent me two of these because now I can keep one 😌

"life doesnt get better, you just get stronger" does NOT include ages 11-17. life does in fact just get better from there. those years are dogshit. like, you do get stronger but its mostly just a factor of not being 11-17 anymore. positive thinking helps but it doesnt fix whatevers going on at 15, you have to brute force through that one raw

i really love it when people here are “not normal” about the things they love. yes!! break down the scene that you’ve been obsessing over for weeks! create incredibly intricate theories based on a few throwaway lines! explain why you love this character so much—458 reasons and counting, and with visual aids! i love to see people putting their heart and soul into not being normal!!!

Charlie had really done his best to avoid Ella after their fight. Truth be told, he hadn’t been quite right that day and even so he knew his frustrations held a lot of truth. She was nicer than Kit was and that man had a tendency to get under his skin for that fact alone. Still, when he spotted her he wasn’t going to just ignore her because for some reason he could not find it in himself to. They had been stuck in the same line for a coffee and Charlie had craned his neck to look at her to make sure he wasn’t imagining it. “I can go to the back of the line if that is what you wish,” he said simply before turning his head back. If she wanted to speak with him, that was her choice.

??? I don't know what you're planning but I'm ready to fight you!
