— ˚ maybe alessandro castellani has been avoiding juniper johnson because she developed the innate ability to see something in him since the very beginning . it's impossible though ; they live in the same place and are borderline crossing the same paths every day . but when he left, he left without so much of a word . things got out of hand the few months he was away from nemean lion, and alessio feels all the progress he's made thus far go down the drain in a flash . he can't count what drink he's on, and he doesn't care anymore . the ball continues to bloom and alessio can't help but feel more out of place than ever . and then he spots juni, and a pang burns in his chest . he forgot how it felt to have a friend . " i thought you'd be drunk in a bathroom like last time by now, " alessio says after a few beats, a light laugh accompanying sad eyes . ✧ @solarstcrms
