Living Quarters: Will and Sara's room

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 4:42 pm

Sara is sitting on one of the camping beds set up in the cramped room, trying to wrap her head around everything that's happened.

by **Robin Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 4:45 pm

There's a knock on the door and a moment later Robin steps into the room.

"I heard Dad wiped the floor with... well... Dad."

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 4:58 pm

"Yeah. He didn't really have to be that rough on him though." Sara says, seeming a little awkward in the presence of her (almost) grown-up daughter.

by **Robin Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:00 pm

"He used to be even harder on himself, you know." Robin says, closing the door behind her and sitting down on the other bed across from Sara.

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:06 pm

"I figured. He might have changed but he is still the Will I know on some level..."

by **Robin Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:32 pm

"If he is then why did you avoid me?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:37 pm

"I... I don't know. I just..."

by **Robin Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:38 pm

"Just what?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:40 pm

"I... didn't want to know what this future did to my little girl..." she says, lifting her head to look at Robin.

by **Robin Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:44 pm

"Not nearly as much as losing you did." Robin says quietly, sounding much younger all of a sudden. "It wasn't Dad's fault, but one of us had to be the strong one after that..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:52 pm

"I probably would have done the same." Sara admits after a moment.

by **Robin Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:55 pm

"I know. I tried to do what you would have done... You always said it's important not to give up."

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 6:03 pm

"I could see myself saying that, yes..." she smiles softly.

by **Robin Stanton** » Tue Aug 17, 2010 6:05 pm

"I missed you, Mom!" Robin suddenly blurts out and wraps her arms around Sara, clinging to her.

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 10:28 am

"Shh... hey... it's okay." Sara says, hugging Robin back and stroking the back of her head.

by **Robin Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 10:30 am

"Not really." she sniffs. "Things kinda suck..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 10:35 am

"Yeah, I know..." Sara sighs quietly.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:34 pm

At that point, Will walked in...and stopped.

"Should I come back later?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:37 pm

"It's okay." she says, rubbing Robin's back before letting go of her.

by **Robin Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:38 pm

"Yeah, I got stuff to do anyway..." Robin mumbles and gets up, wiping her cheeks with the back of her hand.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:40 pm

Will stood there, a bit awkwardly, looking back and forth between the two of them.

by **Robin Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:42 pm

"I'll, uhm, see you." Robin says before ducking out of the room.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:45 pm

"So," he says, after a moment.

"How was your day?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:50 pm

"Not all that great, I guess..." she sighs.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:51 pm

"Tell me about it," he groans, sitting down next to her. "This future sucks."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:54 pm

"We have to prevent this, Will. Somehow. This isn't the future I want for our little girl..."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:55 pm

"I know, I know...but HOW? We might not even be able to get back..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:58 pm

"I don't know but we can't just stay here."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:59 pm

"No, we certainly can't," he said, chuckling ruefully. "I wouldn't allow it."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:02 pm

"What do you mean?"

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:02 pm

"I apparently turn into a huge dick," he grumbled.

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:04 pm

"Yeah, you kinda did..."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:07 pm

"Why the hell did he kick me out of the room, and why the hell did he beat me up later?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:09 pm

"He hates himself because he thinks he let me die..."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:10 pm

"Well, I could understand that. But I didn't do anything!"

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:19 pm

"He said you remind him of how weak he used to be..."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:22 pm

"I'm..not THAT weak..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:25 pm

"You're not. He just... he had to watch me die..."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:26 pm

Will shook his head slowly. "That's NOT going to happen. I won't let it..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:34 pm

"We won't even let it get that far."
