The academy felt quiet, silent, almost too much so. Granted, many people were lost, including the two assassins and even Logan who had preyed on the innocent half-bloods. Time was still, and every tear the students shed was time passed and time withheld. Snow had fallen, blanketing all it touched in the purity that radiated from the bright whiteness. It made things that much more silent, as all those that remained were tucked safely into the buildings. Claire wandered down the hall, not even bothering to check the numbers on the walls; she knew where she was going. Her stop was sudden in front of the door, and her brown eyes wandered upwards to the handle. The young woman's heart was low lately, and she knew that talking with her best friend would help. "Hey, Rosey?" Claire called softly, whipping her tears with her gray sweater and rapping her knuckles on the door lightly a few times. "You wanna talk?"

Tick, tock.
Tick, tock.
Tick, tock.
Seconds turned to minutes, minutes turned to hours, hours turned to days. Rosemary had been in her room for three days. She hadn't left her bedroom for any reason other than to use the restroom. Rosey hadn't eaten at all. She only drank a glass or two of water a day. And hygiene? Who cares? She wasn't in the mood to shower, or do any of her usual activities for the matter. Most of her time she spent in her bedroom, sleeping or crying until she fell asleep. She was depressed and she knew it. Occasionally she would even think about what would happen if she wasn't even at the academy at all. What if the HBES kidnapped her? What if she died? And most of all- who would care?
A knock at her dorm door startled her out of her thoughts. "Hey, Rosey? You wanna talk?"
It was Claire- Rosemary knew it. The voice was completely recognizable. Rosey would never forget her best friend.. She smiled softly to herself, a thing she hadn't done in a while. She got up out of bed, her eyes sore from the morning tears, and headed towards Dorm 8's door.
She opened the door about four inches and peeked her head out. Sure enough, it was Claire. Rosemary smiled a little bit and opened the door wider. "Come on in, Claire. I've needed someone to talk to lately, and I'm sure you do too, with all that Shadow stuff and all."

Claire's first reaction was total shock. Smiling with a slight grim expression, the young black-haired girl nodded throughfully at Rosemary's comment. Rose was a mess, a complete train wreck, and she smelled and looked like it. Biting her lip, Claire not-so-nonchalantly approached the kitchen, making careful chitchat as she did so.
"I've needed someone to talk to lately, and I'm sure you do too, with all that Shadow stuff and all."
"Oh, you have no idea," Claire agreed, reflecting on all that had happened to her. Claire started a pot of hot water over the burner and began to raid Rosemary's kitchen in search of ingredients for home-made chicken noodle soup. She didn't ask for permission because she was sure Rose would refuse, but she took the initiative to care for her friend anyway. "How you doing with that whole Shadow thing and knowing her real name now, by the way? I'm sure you're happy she's gone after all she did!" Smiling in sympathy, Claire began chopping some onions, carrots, and celery.
