Nothing's taking the edge off anymore. She's been drinking and getting high most days but, unless she's locked in the apartment, the grays are driving her mad. It seems to be worse since she broke up with Darlington; she can't keep a hold on it anymore. She'd mentioned it in passing to Kavinsky, knowing that he deals, and he's hooked her up with some fentanyl, which just makes her think of Hellie.

She sits slumped on a bench, staring out into space, the drugs and gear tucked into her satchel at her side. She remembers this kind of hole from before. Maybe she won't figure out how to climb out this time.

Things have been... kind of weird lately. With school finally out, Rue doesn't really know what to do with her time. Between bugging Steve and Peter and finding excuses to be around Robin, there hasn't been much else going on. It's after she finds herself on the verge of a Space Hospital binge that she decides to go to the park instead, popping a xanny bar before heading out from the Home.

She spots Alex on a bench, and it'd be a lie to say she doesn't feel a little relieved that she's not the only one feeling kind of crappy today.

"Wow, you look like shit," she says, casually taking a seat next to ALex without asking.
