Fandom High Welcome Picnic, Front Lawn of the School, All Day

[bigdamnprincipal]

Good weather had fallen over Fandom this morning, so the picnic conditions were looking fantastic. The bonfire was there for good measure, along with the makings of s'mores, because it was almost truly summer, right?

There was plenty of food, and there were tables and chairs set up all across the lawn with varying degrees of glitter stuck to them. Everything was ready for another welcome picnic!

Two out of the three previous relationships Liliana had been involved in had ended in death (her fault) and the other had collapsed from all the lies and betrayal (also her fault), so the idea of being broken up with because of being too good was, well...Okay, Liliana never really had to worry about any consequence of being too good.

"Not wanting to be angry and not being angry are two very different things." Probably. Liliana also really wasn't experienced in not wanting to be angry. "And it's possible to be angry and not at her. But regardless of what emotions you do or don't have, you're clearly not fine and trying to force yourself to be fine on a schedule just makes everything worse."

Again, probably?

"I'm not really angry I'm just...off balance? I don't know what I am. Confused. It's confusing it's complicated and I didn't expect it and I'm just trying to get used to it because what else can I do? I'm not...I'm not falling apart because this isn't the same as when I did it's not the same at all and I'm not running away because I've fallen apart I'm just trying to adjust."

Which would be easier, of course, if the person Stark most wanted to talk things through with weren't the one who had caused all these confused feelings in the first place. Things were complicated!

"It's just something to get used to. I will be fine, eventually. I think. Now I'm...lonely."
