The One With A Collapse
(Of An Empire)
"Damaged people love you like you are a crime scene before a crime has even been committed. They keep one eye open in case things change whilst they sleep. Their backs are always tense as though waiting to fight a sudden storm that might engulf them. Because damaged people have already seen hell. And damaged people understand that every evil demon that exists down there was once a kind angel before it fell."
— Nikita Gill

In the time since I rose from the fucking dead, I wish I could say more has happened. Something like, Arielle has entirely forgiven me and Ezra is six feet underground.
Sadly, neither are true.
One can wish.
I'm still living with QuickDraw. It seems as though ever since we finally revealed everything to Arielle, I've barely seen him. It's weird, sure, but I think he's just been busy with other shit. I'm assuming he's probably trying to find proof of Vivien's murder so he can arrest Ezra for good, but I can't be sure.
In the meantime, I've been cleaning up my house. Throwing out the broken and torn furniture, repainting, patching the holes in the drywall, and buying all new shit. I have plans to change shit up a bit, including thoughts of putting some wicked lighting around the edge of my bed. I think it'll create a sick ambiance.
If you catch my drift.
When Hayes had come to me and told me about Langley switching to our team, I was shocked, to say the least. But then Hayes informed me that Ezra killed Vivien and it was the thing that turned Langley against him.
However, the more I've thought about Langley and his recent behaviours, it makes sense. When I reminisce on that time when I met with him in an attempt to get Arielle's engagement ring back, he'd been acting super fucking weird. I didn't understand it at the time, but now it makes me believe he was already doubting his father and his role within their business.
