hide yo god, hide yo 'rents, cause we're seeing errybody up in here
Who: Anna Milton and OPEN
What: Crazy plot shenanigans
Where: All over the place! In yo' houses, up in yo' bar, all over the place.
When: Days 33-39
Notes: Put whatever day you want Anna from in the subject line for varying levels of crazy, if you please. There's a guide to her hallucinations so that you have a general idea of what she's going to be up to and doing. This is a catch-all log for everything from random hilarious mistaking someone-for-God shenanigans all the way through to lovely delicious feelsy breakdowns. Hit me with your best shot, babies.And now for some prosey wank to make it look like a real log :O
It's driving her insane. The people following her, the feeling that something inside of her is rising up and pushing out of her chest, it won't get any better. And then she recognises the faces and everything changes, and it goes from a desperate fight to find out who to a pained attempt to reconcile her guilt. There's no sense to it, and an incredibly logical part of Anna knows full well that it can't be them, but who could turn that opportunity away?
...Of course, it doesn't stop there, that'd be far too easy. Of course it isn't just her parents, it's so much more than that, and it's not long before that last grasp on reality, that last logical train of thought slips. Her mother, her father, and now her Father? Anna's just too wrapped up to think about anything other than the reconciliation.

no subject
Whyever it is, he's not completely convinced that she could accidentally Fall just like that, but clearly something's up with her. That shouldn't take any effort at all.
"Did you-- did you touch anything funny? Like the time you lost your voice?"
no subject
And if she'd been concerned about that, well this is a whole different level. When it comes down to it, she doesn't want to lose her Grace again, not like this. She needs it now, to protect herself if nothing else. Not to mention more of them arriving is starting to complicate things. She has no idea that she's doing it to herself, which makes it almost impossible to figure out why it's happening.
"My parents here, this. It can't be just a coincidence."
no subject
It doesn't make any sense than he can understand, but he'll admit it's too big a coincidence to be, well, coincidental.
"It's worth checking out. I doubt Dad's behind it, but someone else could be. Asshole scientists, or maybe someone a little closer to home. I still wouldn't say I trust everyone here."
no subject
God, she's tired. She's spent days in constant movement, and it shouldn't be wearing we down but it is, and that in itself is just more reason to be concerned. Maybe he doesn't have to keep moving again right away, maybe she can stay in the house just a few moments longer. After all, they had told her they wouldn't come into this house.
"Do you really think the scientists could do this? I know they're obviously powerful, but taking away my grace. I didn't think they'd be able to."
no subject
For it not to have affected anyone else - as far as he knows - definitely makes it worthy of note, too. He drags a hand through his hair, frustrated.
"Just your luck, huh? All this shit happening at once. We'll find out what's causing it."
Though frankly he has no idea where to start. Interrogating Anna's parents seems like the only option, but that might not go down too well with her.
no subject
It's not often that anyone sees him reacting in any way other than amused, mocking and sarcastic, and had it not been for the rather obvious distraction Anna would probably have found it almost a little endearing.
Instead she just drops her arms to her sides, hands shoved into pockets as she tips back to look out of a window. She's got to be careful, they always seem to be around.
"They were always so nice. I guess death makes people angry."
no subject
If his had stuck, he might have been pretty annoyed too. But, if you give him a moment, he'll stop dwelling on being dead himself and start putting a few pieces together.
"Angry in general, or at... [hm. tact.] anyone in particular?"
no subject
Still, he's been pretty good at helping her out of tight spots so far, and it's not like she has much to lose. What's he going to do, tut and shake a finger at her too?
"Angry at me. They're...really mad at me."
no subject
There's not much he can do, to be honest. Comfort's not his forte, and it doesn't seem there's a lot he can do about her parents being angry. Talking to them, given his particular knack for being annoying and rude, would probably just make it worse.
"I mean, sure, it was kind of because of you, but it wasn't your fault. They've no right to be pissed."
no subject
Of course she says it, because it's what anyone wracked with guilt would say. She doesn't think about her parents as much as she had done in the early days, back when she'd first reacquired her Grace, but these days she can't get them out of her mind. Something to do with the constant appearances, probably.
Not that it'll do anything to fix it. No matter what she does she can't take their deaths back, and she can't make them any less angry about it. Justifiably so, of course, but that doesn't make it any easier to deal with.
"They've got every right. It's just- I'm tired, that's all. I need a breather. They won't come here though, they don't like angels."
no subject
But he's well aware that even if she does know it rationally (and he's not sure of that), actually believing it is another thing entirely. Especially with the kind of guilt complex almost all of Team Free Will's allies seem to have.
"Not very good Christians if they don't like angels. Not that it isn't understandable in some cases. But hey, they're probably tired too, right? Can't be too restful, yelling at you all day. Might as well take all the breathers you need."
