☈ strike #12 (action)

[ With the latest experiment screeching into an abrupt-as-always end, Lightning is, unsurprisingly, furious at everything because of it. Finding herself out in the middle of town, middle of the night, completely blindsided with the realization that everything she thought for the last week was a lie... that was not in her overall game-plan. The dreams were true. Her "family" was an elaborate, baffling fabrication. Ergo, Lightning is pissed.

However...

Making her way home would be much, much easier if the woman wasn't completely smashed on the alcohol her alternate apparently decided would be a good stand-in for sleep... and if her body wasn't trying desperately to go and expel not only that but apparently everything she's eaten in the last week. The taste of too-strong booze and-- and cigarettes is in her mouth, choking her, and it's only by a show of tremendously formidable will that she manages to stumble home, to make it to the right building at all...

Just to burst inelegantly through community housing 4's front door, smack into a wall bodily, and then promptly get lost in the semi-darkness as she tries to make her way to her apartment. Not so easy, when her intoxication-ruined grace has her tripping on the stairs, cursing not-so-quietly under her breath....

Feel free to run into her at any point between town and apartment. Anywhere, really. 8| ]

[A frown. She's going to fall and crack her skull at this rate, and Aella as the nearest doctor would have to patch her up, wouldn't she.

Damn. Reaching over and grabbing her by the arm to steady her.]
Come on, let's get you upstairs.

I think we all did, some more then others. [She seemed to have gotten off easy, but losing all her memories of her life, her world, the things that made her who she was- It wasn't right, and it definitely was rage inducing. She already knew if she ever saw that Bil bastard in person she'd make him feel a world of hurt.]

Come on, I'll help you get upstairs then give you some medicine to clear your head. If you pass out in the hall or crack your head open it'll make a mess.
