It’s quiet when xe opens xyr eyes, just like it always is in the aftermath. Instead of her bed though, she awakens in a fog bank, the floor cold and hard beneath her.

A figure appears in the mist, silent and ghostly. It's familiar, achingly so, and as they offer their hand to xem, xe smile softly. It’s time to dance.

They waltz. Or at least, they sway together, a pendulum dancing to nonexistent music.

It's quiet.

“You left me.” she says as they sway together. “You left me.”

They don’t say anything, face shifting and out of focus.

“Why did you betray me? Was it… was it my fault? I'm sorry. I didnt- i didnt mean to.” xyr breath hitches, and xe stumbles slightly, out of step.

Silence is the only answer, like always.

“It’s not- whatever I did, whatever caused you to do that… It was cruel. Okay?! It was cruel and you betrayed me, and for what? What- what did they have that I didn't?” she pushes away, breaking apart.

A shaky sob echoes through the space, out of place in the silence. “I don't… I'm not sure I can forgive you for that. I don't think I want to. Maybe? I miss you and I love you and I wish you were here but… you hurt me. You broke us. That's… I don't think that can be forgiven.”

Embers spark and dance in her hair and feathers, burning away some of the fog. “It’s your fault, okay? Im, i didn't cause this! This… I had nothing to do with this!”

The embers burn brighter, small flames igniting on xyr primaries.

“Did- did you ever think about your actions? Did you ever consider someone else for once your fucking life?”

She steps forward, more fog being burned away as her anger burns brighter. “I waited for you, did you know that? I waited, and I watched the door, and when you finally showed up, I was so happy. Did you know that, love? Did you know that for a minute, I saw you, and thought everything was going to be okay?”

Two steps forward, one step back. Shadows dance, obscured by the thinning fog.

“You could have saved us. You could have done the right thing.”

She stalks closer, fists clenched and wings aflame. “But you didn't.” Tears evaporate due to the heat.

“And I HATE YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT!”

Flames burst outwards, burning away the last of the fog and leaving nothing but emptiness behind. They disappear.

It’s quiet, and she cries because of it. Sobs echo in the place she left.
