[amy keeps doing shit he doesn't like, such as checking in for an unusual check out at an hour he doesn't expect anyone to be awake. he's groggy, standing on isolde's 'side' of the bathroom and leaning against the doorframe with his breath held in his throat, anticipating. she woke him or he woke her. or potentially some other third option where their stress caught between the walls and pulled the noose tight around their necks.

the question is: will she calm down, will the fear dissipate and the sleep drift back peacefully? the bathroom door is closed and he's listening for more than silence when the text buzzes his phone.

no everything is not okay. elias is hardly ever on the side of okay that regulates and normalizes, but he'll push through. pain ends, bad dreams end and bruises heal. some don't see the world how he sees it and pain is everything forever and dreams stick like rotting milk. he thinks isolde's dreams are like drowning in sick waters.

why tf are you awake?
