( And that did NOT turn out well. )
no subject
[Prison worlds?! PRISON WORLDS, ALARIC?!]
It didn't end well, if I remember correctly?
no subject
( She finds her mother's eyes. She knows this part of the story. )
And then Alyssa Chang sent us to the prison world.
no subject
[Jo tips her head to the side.]
But I feel like we focused a lot more on Josie than you, for obvious reasons.
no subject
( She humphs, crossing her arms and sitting back. )
no subject
But you do get past it.]
Did you love him?
[No judgement. Just curious.]
no subject
( She takes a bite of ice cream, sighing. )
Is that lame? Not even knowing if I loved the equally psycho vampire? He didn't love me. He just wanted to replace his first love. Cassandra.
no subject
It's not lame at all. That doesn't make whatever you felt for him any less valid or important. Sometimes ... we need to weed out a bad person or two in order to find the right one.
[She glances over to her.]
That's the benefit of being young. You can meet all kinds of people, and fall in love and fall out of it again. You can learn what it looks like when someone loves you well and when someone doesn't.

[She offers a small smile.]
We all have "the one that got away." But you learn from them, so you can do better next time.
no subject
( But... )
Who got away?
no subject
Guy in college. His name was Thomas, and he made me feel ... seen. He was also a witch, but he wasn't part of the coven and it was really ... freeing. Like my eyes were opened that not all covens had to be that way.
[She swallows.]
And then your Uncle did what he did and I joined the military and things had to end. But he taught me that there were other worlds I could join. I wasn't limited to that compound in Portland.
no subject
( Whaaaat. )
That is badass.
no subject
Yeah. I was a combat medic for a while. Then once I finished my tour, I moved back here and met your dad.
[She smirks.]
And the rest, as they say, is history.
no subject
( She's real proud to call you her mother right now. )
no subject
Yeah, I guess there's that too. You never know where life is going to take you. Even when it hurts, there's something you can learn from it.
no subject
( You get a hug. )
no subject
I'm so proud of you.
no subject
You said that already.
no subject
[She pulls back to look at her.]
And I want you to have fun on your trip, okay? You've earned it.
no subject
( She really can't! )
no subject
[And she gathers up the remains of the ice cream.]
I should go check in with your dad, and I know your sister is waiting to come in here. But are you good?
no subject
( But with other people and not for therapy. )
no subject
[She presses one last kiss to her forehead, before getting up to leave.]
I'll see you in the morning. Sleep tight.
