Hey. Guys. It's Charlie. [Boy, doesn't she sound stressed.] Would...this is awkward.

This weekend sucks. I had one guy know my name at work and I don't wear a nametag. Nor have I ever seen them in my life. And they were on fire just standing there like it was no big deal. Maybe it was a curse. I don't know. It just bothered me a lot. And then when I left work, someone tried to eat me. Some...asshole vampire that hopefully is just here for the weekend. Whatever. Point is...I don't feel like bringing any of this home and I was wondering if I could stay with anyone for the weekend? Just until this whole shitstorm blows over. Or at least just...have people to be around constantly.


[A sigh, a small, annoyed laugh and then;] haven't felt this unsafe in years.

[Feed clicks out for a moment and then there's another message for Toph.] I'm still coming in for work. Just...I might try to keep things in the back away from everyone neat and all? I'm a bit jumpy and don't want to ...do anything idiotic.

Not at all.

If you're concerned for your safety you should stay with a friend. Find some place to feel safe. That's normal.

[charring]

True. [Yeah, see. It's an entirely new and entirely unexplored concept for her, Ken.] I'll be over in an hour. And thank you. You're awesome.

[oceantrauma]

Ah, no. Not at all. It's just the least I could do for you.

[charring]

I'll return the favor with cooking. Or something. See you in a bit, Ken.

[oceantrauma]

That would be nice, but you don't have to go to any trouble. Although...perhaps it's best we cook and stay in tonight.

[charring]

Anything specific you want for dinner? I need to swing by the grocery store, anyway.

[oceantrauma]

Considering the atmosphere today, I think I'll meet you there.

I already have rice, but some chicken would be nice.

[charring]

Okay. Chicken it is. And I'll see you there in a bit.
