I12DT: Under the Pale Moon Light

The Estate's meticulously kept gardens, including a hedgemaze that students have occasionally described as "sadistic" and a sizeable rose garden. Benches in shaded spots are plentiful, and the gardens are popular to study in on pleasant days.

Regan was waiting for Haley, haunting her usual tree and feeling a bit paranoid.

This felt like a trap.

Haley snuck out of her room and crept around until she found Regan. She was bundled up in a hoodie, looking around nervously.

"Are you freaking scared?" Regan says, rolling her eyes as she drifts down from the tree, "Jeez, Haley. Get over yourself."

"Did you ask me out here to just give me shit, or do you want to actually talk?" she asked....after barely avoiding jumping in surprise.

"I'm here, aren't I?" Regan says, "I'm even being nice. I could've set up something horrible for you but I didn't. So there."

"....fair enough." she sighed, sitting down on a bench, the slight breeze rattling the branches of the trees the only sound for a long pause

awkward.....

"So...sorry about getting into your head....I...well I don't really know how it happened."

Regan shrug, "Like I give a crap."

"...I should be apologizing. I mean...you shouldn't have to put up with that. I barely deserved to go through that crap."

"Have you tried talking to anyone about it? There seem to be, like....lots of people around here who can do magic...which is still really effing weird to me."

Haley shivered, as a particular frightening memory of Belasco flashed through her mind.


"....yeah. not gonna sleep well for a while."

That was definitely the most concerned I've ever heard her about anyone ever....


Haley was quiet for a moment, clenching her eyes closed.

"It...it's just a lot to take in all at once, you know? And not just the pictures...the feelings, the sensations....

"I wouldn't...I feel bad enough about screwing with Kay's notebook. And this is...just...I hate my telepathy. It's hard not to overhear things that no one would normally want said out loud...and then shit like this happens, and it's even more of an invasion."

Regan is quiet for a minute.

"...I kind of wish I had telepathy," Regan says, "I mean, I know it would suck, yeah. But at least I'd know what people were thinking."

"People's thoughts? No filter. Brutally honest, all the time."

Haley regarded Regan carefully.

"I hated you. More than anyone I'd ever hated. You were cruel to me from the minute I met you. And you know? Probably not an uncommon feeling. You seem to go out of your way to piss people off."

"No duh," Regan says, "I know you and everyone else hate me for being a bitch all the time. I'm not an idiot, Haley."

"But if I was a telepath, I would've known that Kelly was just fucking with me. I would've known Kay wasn't interested in me. I would've know that Christie was just using me to get to Kay."

Regan shakes her head, "Whatever. It's not like anyone's interested in a dead girl anyway. I shouldn't even care."

"Kay pretty much said she wasn't interested," Regan says, "And you saw Christie. She's all over Kay."

"Doesn't even care about me anymore. Not since Theresa and Kay broke up."

Regan shrugs, "Probably for the best. I think I'm turning into a demon anyway."

"Did you actually ask, or did you just assume so you didn't get hurt again? And you know, if you were a little nicer to people, you might not have people sort of keep you at arm's length?"

"...he's been through almost as much shit as you have..."

Haley chewed her lip wondering about finishing her sentence.

"And since I'm keeping my mouth shut about everything in my head I expect you'll do the same about me telling you that he's on medication for that."

That surprised Regan. She honestly didn't have a comeback to that.

Haley blushed visibly.

"Uh... Sorry. I...guess I just feel like I know you a bit more since so much is up in my head...um...true though. You were nothing but amazing to her and she's an asshole for doing that to you."

Awkward silence.
