Hello There 2: Salad's Breaking Point

Painting The Roses Red

Salad Fingers looked up at Majory, his tears ceased and he went silent. He stared at her for quite some time and while doing so his mind was running crazy. If felt just like last time. Old memories seemed to fill his mind, once again it was all too much. "Majo-" That's all he could manage before he gagged, blood seeped from his mouth and he fell to the floor.
"SALAD!" Joyce shrieked.
Not wasting time she ran to the corner of the room and got a rag. "What happened to him? What is going on?!" Majory asked turning to Jeremy and then to Joyce.
"I don't know! He hasn't done this in ye-." Joyce fell silent, she knew exactly what was going on.
"It was you.."
"What?"
"You triggered his memories, his mind couldn't take it!" Joyce said, quickly wiping the blood from around Salad's mouth.
Majory looked a Jeremy again, who was in the kitchen doorway, too stunned to speak. Majory sighed. "We just got here and look what happens." Majory said bending down to help Joyce. Taking notice of this Jeremy pitched in as well, helping them carry Salad to his bedroom.
" if I'm right we might get to talk to Hubert for a while..." Joyce replied not exactly happy.
"Well at least he's okay?" Jeremy said, with a hint of question in his voice.
"Hopefully." Joyce said, walking to the living room.
"You guys want something to eat? We've got sand and peas pudding."

Joyce managed, shaking the pillows trying to get the dust of them.
"Uh no, we're good for now." Majory said looking to Jeremy for assurance.

Joyce noticed that they would do that a lot, look to each other for reassurance. It was cute, but at the same time odd. Nodding Joyce sat in Salad's armchair, snuggling into the pillows. As they got settled the radio made an odd noise. It sounded like music was coming from it. It was different from before....it almost sounded like "painting the roses red" from Alice in Wonderland...
