Little Drama, Little Update

The drama’s been pretty quiet. Don’t worry, I’m sure it’s just the calm before the storm.

Mason and Fyre haven’t fought for two whole days. Fyre’s not talking to Mason. She doesn’t trust herself. She doesn’t want to upset E, and she doesn’t really even want to fight with Mason. She knows the chances are good that someone’s going to get hurt if things escalate anymore. She’s afraid of saying the unforgivable, but she’s more afraid of doing the unforgivable. She’s honestly afraid of killing him. No, she doesn’t want him dead, or even maimed. But control has never been her strong suit, and she can feel it slipping even more. He seems especially interested in pushing the bounds of the control she does have, so she’s trying not to give him the opening to start pushing again.

(By the way, I thought Mason’s Carnie outfit was hilarious, but Fyre was trying her best to ignore Mason’s entire existence, which was not easy with those pants involved.)

During the Malta mission, she chose to “space out,” rather than give the fear and anxiousness a chance to break the control she did have. I heard music running through her head as she tried to be anywhere but there, mentally.

E’s been questioning and hinting around Katherine’s and the demon’s return. I can’t deny their influence, but I won’t say how much they are influencing her. I can’t. She’s not even sure how much is her and how much is them. She’s… “stressed” doesn’t even begin to cover it… beyond belief, and she’s trying to keep it all bottled up. Is it going to find a slow release? Will something be able to simply dissipate it? Is there going to be a huge, fiery explosion? Aside from outside events that I can’t predict, a lot of that depends on the direction of Team 3.0.
