The world felt so bright and stifling, so dry, the heat of the sun; they knew it wasn't real, logically, but that didn't make it any better. "Would've --" Alexis' voice caught in their throat, broke, they knew it wasn't true but it felt so true - "would've been good with her. I could have." It had to make sense. It had to be their fault. If it wasn't some direct fault of theirs that had caused this, it was just some random act of fate, some random chance, perceptions that'd gone wrong -- and -- no. No, life wasn't like that. It wasn't.
Was it?

Alexis went suddenly, stubbornly quiet, caught up too far inside their own head to say anything good -- they shook their head again, to curtain their face with their hair properly. God, being talked about like it was a problem to be solved; they felt like a child, they felt useless, useless, useless.
Their eyes were still dry. They hadn't -- hadn't -- their eyes were dry. It was nothing. It was nothing. It was everything.
"'m tired." They stood up, very slowly, uncurling, and began to walk towards the stairs.
