Cora had barely shut the door to Phalanx House before the first tear rolled down her cheeks. Of all places that Lennox MacAlistair could have picked to come and give her a hard time, he had happened upon her when she was at work, meaning that she had been forced to stand there and deal with him with the politest customer service voice that she could. By the time that she had managed to send his coffee careening into his lap, she had felt degraded, embarrassed, and meaningless, which she supposed was part of his goal. She hated him, she really did, and she had half a mind to figure out how to get some kind of revenge on him. Half a mind. The problem was that she wasn’t the kind of person to wish any badness on anybody, even the people who so clearly deserved it, which meant that regardless of what he had done to her and how he had made her feel… she wasn’t going to retaliate. Personally, she would just rather he disappeared from her life altogether, so she didn’t have to think about the fact that he existed at all.
Cora reached up, wiping the tear away as she made her way upstairs, thankfully it seemed that just about everybody was gone, either at their respective jobs or out and about in the Quarter. That was good, nobody would see her crying, nobody would ask her what was wrong, and there were a few that she knew probably would. Like Jae, for instance. There were very few people in this house who knew her well, and of those few people, fewer were around when Lennox had become a part of her life, and then left it. Really the only person that knew about the whole situation was Asha, because she was Cora’s best friends, and therefore the only one that she trusted with that kind of information. She was also the one that had supplied her with girl’s nights, including ice cream and sad movies to allow her to wallow in a more healthy way than… what she usually did. Shoving everything down and bottling it away until it became too much for her to handle was not a great way to deal, and she knew that, but dealing with it meant unlocking the part of her that she kept well hidden, the part of her that she refused to drag out and let see the light of the day. It was the part of her that got exacerbated by the use of her powers.
Finally, Cora made it to the top of the stairs, and she made her way down the hallway until she finally reached her own door. By this time, more tears had fallen, and it was everything that she could do to keep it together. She pushed the door open, and was greeted by the site of Asha, sitting cross legged on her bed. That alone was enough to make Cora break down, her sobbing making her shoulders shaking as she wrapped her arms around her. “I. I fucking. Hate. Him. So much.” Each sentence was punctuated by a sharp gasp, tears rolling down her cheeks.

The nice thing about being in between actually working at a job was that there were moments when Astrid had Phalanx almost entirely to herself. Most of the other residents were at work or out spending time with one another that she didn’t have to worry about someone coming up and knocking on her door to interrupt her. Not that she was doing anything actually interesting other than some of the homework that Miss Morgan had assigned the other day.
Eppie was pretty good about the school work that she assigned as long as it was done in a relatively timely manner and showed some kind of initiative from the students. Asha wanted to learn, she enjoyed it and Miss Morgan’s class was one of her better subjects, but that didn’t mean that she enjoyed the actual homework portion of it. What teenager actually enjoyed that? Still, there were no distractions while everyone was out and that meant that Asha was able to focus on what she was doing… In between scrolling through various social media outlets in order to give her mind some kind of reprieve.
Every now and then she had found her mind shifting towards other things still. The future of Phalanx was something that she thought about a lot more often than what someone her age probably should have been thinking about. Astrid knew that she wanted to do more around here to help Astor out, aside from being his lovable pain in the ass little sister. Reaching over to the edge of her bed, where she had tossed her phone earlier, she grabbed it and pulled it over before opening a memo app on her phone and tapping out a quick note to talk with Sirius about how he was feeling with everything going on. The middle of the Perona kids, but certainly no less important regardless of what he might have though. Sirius just needed some prodding from his little sister and that was something that Asha was more than willing to provide.
As she shifted back to the computer on her bed, a familiar scent wafted through her nostrils. Tear-stained cheeks on her best friend was something that Asha had gotten used to over a brief period where her heart had been ripped out and trampled over by one of the Primrose boys. Green eyes were already staring at the door when Cora opened it, but the floodgates seemed to open in the safety of their room. Shifting over, Asha reached out and wordlessly pulled Cora to her. The familiar brush of fur against her skin was a reminder for Asha to control her own emotions, to tamper the rage that she felt at seeing her best friend so broken and knowing exactly who it was to have caused such despair without even hearing his name. ”What happened, Cor?”
