“how are you holding up?”    “great,  it’s good.  i’ve got so much time freed up.”  “helen...” “it’s horrible.  honestly,  i thought it might be easier,  but i feel like i’m trespassing in my own hospital.”

@sharpewit​ said   ⇾   ‘you know i love you,  right?’

TELL HER YOU LOVE HER PLS,   accepting.

“i know,”   the confirmation isn’t nearly as confident as she’d like,  but it’s what she’s able to offer,  so...  at least it’s something.  shoulders sag with an exhale,  like something’s deflating inside of her  —  and maybe it has.  maybe it’s her.  how long until she’s no better than some mylar balloon someone got for their birthday six months ago with just enough helium left to keep her afloat?  just enough helium that it leaves the recipient with the question of whether it’s more annoying to have her floating there or if it’s time to toss her to the curb once and for all.  with the way her heart’s constricted in a vice,  her best estimate would be...  any goddamn minute.  

maybe lauren’s just being dramatic,  but at the same time there’s not any real evidence to the contrary.  she’s never had many friends,  never had people who’ve really taken the time to connect with her then stick around.  it’s not like she’s the easiest person to get along with or anything.  with a sigh,  she rubs absently at the knot that’s lingered persistently near one of her shoulder-blades for...  hell,  lauren hasn’t got a clue how long it’s been at this point,  which can’t be a good sign.   

@sharpewit​​ said   ⟶   she's not gonna say it, but helen keeps swinging by the ed with coffee for lauren all day, for no particular reason at all.

LAUREN’S BIRTHDAY!,   accepting.

Luna Lovegood:One thing that makes you different from everyone else.

I think the obvious answer is my hair. Haha! But I also like to think that my general devotion to making people smile is sort of unique. I spend a lot of time and effort trying to get people to laugh and smile and be happy.

Rubeus Hagrid:What is your favorite mystical creature?

DRAGONS. Also merpeople.

Molly Weasley:What is the proudest moment of your life?

Oh, geez... I don’t even know, really! I’m not proud a whole lot? Which is probably kind of sad, but it’s true?

Remus Lupin:If you transform into any one animal or creature, which one would it be?

I would want to become a cat.

Mad Eye Moody:Who is the bravest person you know?

My mom, I think.

Lavender Brown:Who is the last person who texted and have you ever had a crush on them?

Alice! I have not crushed on her, as she is my mom and also my roommate’s girlfriend.
