__________♕      IT      CAME      BACK      TO      HER      SLOWLY.      her  ambition,    her  rotton  heart,      her    golden    crown    of    sorrow.      they  were  flashes  at  first.        parts  of  a  vision  she  could  hardly  begin  to  grasp,      then    came    the    dreams.        they  spoke  to  her  of  a  past,      of  a  land  long  gone,      &&    a  war  long  lost.      ❛    just  when  you  think  you  have  it  figured  out,      something  new  begins  to  take.    ❜      she  is  piecing  together  the  pieces  of  who  she  once  was.      who    she    is.      i    am    no    mother,      i    am    no    bride,      I    AM    KING.

Alright.  He’s called Stephen, like...Five times.  Six, if he counts the accidental redial while trying to order pizza, and he has zero - count them, zero - returned calls.  It’s not even like he’s pulled the Concerned Mom thing and done them in the space of five minutes, it’s been over the course of a week.  To most people that is plenty of time to allow him to get back to returning calls before drastic welfare check actions are taken, right?  Right.

So it’s come to this.  It’s come to him throwing away all dignity in absolute annoyance at being ignored (he knows what being ghosted looks like).  It’s come to him standing outside of the Bleecker Street Sanctum, scrolling a special emergencies only playlist made for these kinds of occasions, to land on Somebody That I Used To Know, hitting play, and letting Shellhead’s external speakers cranked to 110 decibels handle the rest.

Is it petty?  Yes.  Is it childish?  Yeah, okay, a little.  Does it make his point?  Abso-frickin-lutely.  He’s not calling because he’s asking to meet for brunch on Sunday with the other members of the new-old boys club, he needs a wizard because magic is stupid.

               DEFT HAND CONTINUED their work as her patient finally woke up. Pausing in her ministrations only for a moment, Becky leaned to be better in his line of sight and gave a small smile, peeling her glove from her hand to gently press cool skin to his cheek.
