ANNIE ISN’T IN the best of spirits, to the say the least. she doesn’t think she has ever felt so low in her life, and the constant visions and dreams are starting to get to her more than ever, especially now that she’s remembered things. she knows her name, knows that she has known her friends for far longer than she originally thought, knows that she’s had a whole other life. she doesn’t have all the pieces yet, but she thinks it’s only a matter of time before she does.
going to seth’s is a risk. the others could show up at any time, ingrid or felix especially, but speaking to seth tends to help her out, and so she is willing to risk it. that is, until she sees him and her mind goes blank, a familiar feeling by this point. she sees seth ( no, seteth, his name is seteth ) standing in some sort of office before she forces herself to snap out of it. now isn’t the time for that. she’s sure she’ll see it later.
when he looks up, she gives him a sad smile. she’s sure she looks just as bad as he does. ❝ it’s alright, ❞ she says, already brushing her own issues aside. ❝ i should be asking you that. ❞
Seth’s heart breaks when he sees annie’s sad smile, but it completely shatters when she tells him she tell him that she should be the one asking him if he needs anything and all at once it is like a levee breaks for him as a tears begin to spill from his eyes. Though he’s quick to hide his face behind his hands, not wanting her to have to see him cry. He didn’t think it was fair to try and ask someone so young to bear the burden of his feeling, especially not when she was so obviously hurting herself. “Don’t say that,” Seth’s response is curt but there wasn’t any anger or annoyance in his voice, just sorrow.
