LIZZIE SALTZMAN ( @siphoncursed ) said ❛ can you forgive me ? ❜
She stares at the siphon, arms crossed tightly over her chest as the flimsiest sort of protection, though she knows what could happen if Lizzie touches her. They didn’t start on a good foot, and they haven’t improved their relationship since, not as though they’ve had the time to. But with Josie gone, Finch feels adrift at the school and the last person she expects to hear from is Lizzie, and to hear those words come out of her mouth. It’s not really an apology, but Finch gets it and even though it would be so easy to shake her head, there is an earnestness in Lizzie’s eyes that gives her pause. She understands that Lizzie was just looking out for her sister and she couldn’t have known about Finch’s past, but she still has nightmares about that damn hospital room ever since MG dragged up that memory from the deepest recesses of her mind. “Yeah, whatever,” she says roughly, not meeting the girl’s eyes. “It’s fine.”
