Muse is displeased with her current emotional state of being

[diana_abel]

Okay, chiquitita.

That's it. Enough is enough. Either fix me or drop me. But neither of us are having fun with the emo angst. I'm supposed to be your happy place, remember? "She throws herself at the world and expects the world to catch her. And if it doesn't, she grows wings."

Remember? You keep recycling the damn quote.

So give me some wings already.

And no Red Bull jokes, please.

Peace and love,

Diana "so not the Cainite messiah" Abel

Hey.

[diana_abel]

Peeta!!!

[nolongerhollow]

What is going on, young one? My fellow Elder and I are somewhat concerned. Do you require assistance?

[diana_abel]

I don't get called "young one" too often, daddio. Not since I broke triple digits.

[frostyoutodeath]

Diana.

It's been a long time.

[diana_abel]

Omigod.

[Brace yourself, breadboy, you're getting glomped.]

[undermyfeet]

Hey, growing wings isn't as easy as it sounds. In fact, usually it fucking hurts.

[he would know. he has them. but let's pretend that he's being metaphorical and wise behind his seventeen years for a second.]

[frostyoutodeath]

It's great to see—

[ The glomp may have cut off his air, momentarily. But he hugs her back, firmly. ]

you too.

[diana_abel]

Um...metaphor?

[diana_abel]

Dude! I have missed you so much.

[undermyfeet]

Yeah. I'm going with it.

[sort of.]

Some birds don't even make it out of the nest. In order to learn to fly you gotta learn to fall too.

[frostyoutodeath]

I've missed you too. Believe me.

It's been a very long time since I've come up for air.

[ Yeah actually, he's still hugging her. He hasn't so much as spoken to a soul since he disappeared. ]

[diana_abel]

I'll buy that. But I've been falling for about two hundred years. It gets old real fast, yanno?

[nolongerhollow]

Well, pardon me for being an avuncular old fart. But my headmate is about...ugh, something ridiculous. He's from ancient Greece. For the record, my name is Vlad, these days, and I'll call you by your name if you give it.

At any rate, eternity when you're not having fun is torture. We both know that. And we're both the broody sort when it comes to younger vampires. We have been discussing it with our mun and wonder if one of us may be of assistance to you, and perhaps some of your companions?

For the record, he is the tender one. I? [His eyes twinkle.] I'm the fun one.

[diana_abel]

[Dude, she will hug you as long as you want.]

Please tell me you're okay. Please, please, please.

[diana_abel]

...Vlad.

[Give her a second to suppress a few giggles.]

I'm Diana. Diana Abel. As in "Caine and dot, dot, dot..." I used to be the fun one over this way.

[undermyfeet]

If it's been two hundred years, why are you still falling?

[it's kind of a stupid question, but he honestly doesn't get it. Shouldn't she know what makes her happy by then?

He's got that sort of longevity to look forward to, but even then, he's still a kid.]

[diana_abel]

Dude, it's not like I have some kind of switch I can flip when I need a pick-me-up.

That's what pot is for.

Which is, sadly, only a short-term solution. The fact of the matter remains that I am a co-dependent headcase with a martyr complex and problems adapting to change. You know, if you were wondering.

[frostyoutodeath]

I'm okay.

[ Peeta smiled. Smiling always came naturally to him. ]

You know me.

[ And he wasn't being false about it. Kid bounces back. ]

[diana_abel]

I think about you all the time. You and Katniss and Cinna.

And Finnick.

I miss you.

[frostyoutodeath]

I think about them too. And everyone there.



It doesn't sound like things are going so well.

[undermyfeet]

[ .... That sounds like his best friend. Only, except for the codependent part (Rafe's ward doesn't count), that's Alex all the way.]

Who are you co-dependent on?

[he doesn't even bother to follow up if you don't mind my asking because Alex personally doesn't care of the question makes her uncomfortable.]

[diana_abel]

I'm an emotional trainwreck.

Nothing new, I guess. Just sort of...lost.

[diana_abel]

...other people?

Who are you, anyway?

[frostyoutodeath]

Anything I can help with?
