So it turns out that going into town was kind of a bad idea. It was really cool and plenty beautiful, nothing like the boring reality that Seattle offered. But the more time she spent out there, the more she started to feel kind of tired and sick. She would have tried to shake it off if it wasn't for the headache several hours in and the feeling that something was horribly wrong.

It's actually the prior that got her to finally turn around, but the latter helped.

She she's been lazing around the tower ever since then, waiting for the feeling to go away. It's gotten better, but she still feels kind of drained and hurt. It reminds her of that banality stuff that Alysia would talk about. She doesn't have much experience with it, but she's starting to think that maybe the city will be an infrequent destination for her.

And then she starts thinking over all the places in the tower she could go (since she isn't about to sleep, it's only 2am) and comes to the conclusion that the only place she hasn't visited are those baths that Tabby talked about. Wary as she is, they can't be weirder than the girls' shower room at the dorms, right?

...and who would be there at 2am, anyway?

Which is exactly how she ends up there, hanging out by the edge of the baths with her clothes nearby (because high school pranks and teasing have made her paranoid about that kind of thing). She'll go back and forth, switching every couple of minutes between zoning out and resting or half-swimming aimlessly around her little radius of self-claimed space.

Not that there's anyone else here to invade that space. Of course.

Ha, that would be cute if she wasn't actually freaking out over the fact that this girl might die. So she just... smacks at her in return. But harder. And then really grabs for her arm and drags, while hauling herself halfway out of the water.

"Shut up! Fuck."

Once she's got her close enough to reach across, bracing her arm on the other side of the girl's shoulders, she leans in. Clumsy about it, Krista probably gets a faceful of drippy tendrils of vampire hair in the process, Tabby heads right back to where she'd left off on her neck.

Annnd then suddenly stops short, because wow.

"Holy shit, it's red!"

This is a huge thing, really. She has to stop and just marvel for a second, eyes wide and awestruck like she's watching the northern lights.


...And then, yes, finally remembering what she's doing here in the first place. Sorry, Krista, the weirdness isn't ending yet--there is now a drugged-out vampire trying to lick your neck.
tabbytastic: (ehh?)

"Shutup I'm helping--" all kind of mumbled together, as she struggles to make sure that the wound is actually closed up now, around the pangs of paranoia and color and... everything else insane that is vying for her fractured attention.

But, the good news is that Krista very abruptly gets her wish.

Tabby tries to push herself all the way up out of the water, but is still quite convinced that there are plants growing around her legs. So, braced up awkwardly up on the edge of the bath, kicking and fumbling her legs, trying to get the invisible things off of her... she eventually slips.

The heel of her hand suddenly slides on the slick of blood and water, and... she splashes spectacularly back into the water.
tabbytastic: (frenzy)

Meanwhile, Tabby really isn't having an easy time with anything at all. Scrabbling to try and get at least onto the edge of the bath, splashing far more than necessary, it's definitely like she's fighting with something that isn't actually there.

"Get off of me-- fuck!"

Oh, and she has claws now. And whatever invisible thing is trying to keep her in the pool, it's getting viciously slashed at.
tabbytastic: (whine and whimper)

She manages to notice that the girl gets closer, and is suddenly a little more able to ignore the hallucinations. When she throws herself onto the edge of the bath right by Krista this time, she does so successfully. With another splash, her upper body is out with elbows braced on the edge, catching the girl's gaze with her (slightly crazed) own.

"Hey-- don't you fuckin' die, okay?"
