[b]Tough Luck[/b]
[i]Not everything was going the greatest
Jupiter, was just finishing off a a sandwich, throwing her plate in the trash when her phone went off
Her brother was calling her, and she answers it, walking away from the lunch room and walks back to her room from force of habit
He sounded depressed, as if he just finished crying[/i]
[u]"Jup, I've got some rather disturbing news"[/u]
[i]"Well, what is it?"[/i]
[i]Her brother goes quiet for a bit, the thirty year old man was losing it over the phone[/i]
[u]"Dad, died last night..."[/u]
[i]She stops dead in her tracks, middle of the hallway
Her father, dead
The week before she planned to go see him...
Her father was in the hospital, had a heart attack
Said there was a 50/50 chance of living, said that he would be fine, would live
The doctors where wrong
She hung up, her brother knowing what was going through her mind that instant, knowing she wanted to be alone
She then walked, anywhere
Found herself in the botanical gardens of the ship, upper decks, sitting there next to a tree, messing with a flower
She remained there, hours on end, people went looking for her, but never thought of the gardens
She didn't know what to do, her father, dead at the age of 88, and her mother missing
Sitting there, she didn't know how to handle it, not even going to cry, she was shocked at the very thought of her father dying
"Remain strong, don't cry..."
She thought to herself, but, cry she did, right to sleep...[/i]

12:58 PM[/b]
[i]Jupiter lay there, propped up against the tree, with her legs brought up to her chest, and her arms to her sides
She was asleep, her face red from crying, and her phone went off
Her brother, trying to call him to check on her
She didn't answer, caught in some dream scape, dreaming of when she was young, and her father was to...[/i]
[spoiler]Open, wake her up, move her to a proper bed, somethin[/spoiler]

-
I wander around and eventually see her "Miss?" I talk a little loud
-
[b]She remains asleep [/b]
-
I sit down next to her and pull out a elaborately designed bottle "Let's see here... Something here about singing the ritual song... A flaskrene? Oh, fûck it." I throw the cold contents of the bottle onto her face
-
[b]She jumps up, drenched in cold water, as she draws her pistol and lunges at him[/b]
-
I step back and chuckle, putting my hands up in mock surrender
-
[b]Putting her into a headlock, the barrel of the pistol against her neck, she pushes with it, driving the barrel into her neck to show she wasn't joking[/b]
-
I sigh from the headlock "Are you quite done? Rather a poor exhibition of manners, if I say so myself." [spoiler]It's a he[/spoiler]
-
[b]She drives it farther into his neck[/b] [i]"Don't do that to me, ever"[/i] [b]She releases him, sliding her pistol into its holster[/b]
-
I rub my neck "Meh. I'll do it again if I wish. And I'll fight back that time. Anyways, what are you doing all by yourself?"
-
[i]"Rather not talk of it"[/i]
-
"Let me guess. Family."
-
I rub my neck "Meh. I'll do it again if I wish. And I'll fight back that time. Anyways, what are you doing all by yourself?"

[b]Ëlent stands over you and lightly taps your shoulder, his shadow is gone for some reason but his originally black cloak it a very pale grey[/b]
-
[b]She doesn't move, sound asleep[/b]
-
[b]Ëlent kneels next to her[/b] "I know your pain Jupiter... You may not know it but I have lost my entire species.. I'm sorry he is dead..." *he knows you are asleep he is just talking*
-
[b]She stirs slightly, although not enough to wake[/b]
-
"I tried looking for you... I could not find you and I wish you could forgive me.. My punishment is the loss of... Something close... But I am sorry for being the thing you feared.. The creepy shadow always at your shoulder.." *he stands up and brushes your shoulder heavily and is about to leave*
-
[b]She wakes slightly, catching the last bit of what he said[/b]
-
"Oh you are awake... Should I go?... [b]If you haven't noticed the shadow gone but also his personality and speech seem normal, he has a large bandage wrapped around his stomach and a little spot of red shows through as a stain[/b]
-
[b]She shrugs, not sure[/b]
-
*curves leg and sits cross legged onto the ground* "I've looked for you.. Even tried to get Dean to look.."
-
[b]She sighs[/b] [i]"You didn't have to"[/i]
-
"I had too... Everyone was drunk while I searched."
-
[i]"Oh..."[/i]
