[SO, ALISON IS TOTALLY CRAZY...]

Comments

[coppelganger]

[stumbling upon her as she limps back to the hotel herself]

Oh, shit.

[doubleblind]

[her eyes widen as she spots you]

Sara-- [nope, it's still coughing time]

[coppelganger]

[yep, her face is bloody and bruised. she looks rough! but she crouches down with a wince]

What happened?

[doubleblind]

[when the coughing fit subsides, she wipes her bloody hand off on her skirt]

... Apparently, I shouldn't be getting too emotionally worked up or this happens.

[coppelganger]

Okay. Let's—I'll—

[sliding an arm around her and trying to lift her up, though she's still kind of unsteady herself]

I'll get you some water...

[doubleblind]

Water would be great, man. You, uh, okay to grab some?

[coppelganger]

Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay.

[let's... go... to your room]

[doubleblind]

[leaning heavily on her oxygen tank as they make their way inside]

... Should I even ask what Alison did to you?

[coppelganger]

How do you know it was Alison?

[doubleblind]

I'm the smart one, remember?

[coppelganger]

[waiting until Cosima is in her room before turning to go into the kitchen]

I'll be back.

[doubleblind]

[nods in her direction before flopping onto the bed]

[coppelganger]

[she spends a couple minutes rinsing the blood off her face and returns to Cosima's room carrying a glass of water and a baggie filled with ice.

and then she locks the door behind her.]

[doubleblind]

[sitting up slightly, still short of breath]

Okay, I'm too curious. What happened?

[coppelganger]

[handing her the glass and then sitting heavily on the bed, putting the ice pack over her cheek]

Alison was sitting outside and freaked out when I went near her, again. She had her taser out and I went to grab it. I didn't want to hurt her, so I just—made her drop it and pushed her up against the fence.

[doubleblind]

[takes a long sip of water]

... Let me guess, she retaliated.

[coppelganger]

She was pretty brutal.

[doubleblind]

[just pulls her into a gentle hug]

What's wrong with her?

[coppelganger]

[resting her forehead against Cosima's shoulder]

I don't know. This is really bad. Don't—don't go near her.

[doubleblind]

I was gonna keep following her, but my cough... Guess I really dodged a bullet there, huh.

[coppelganger]

[sniffs, but hey, she could just be making sure she doesn't bleed on Cosima's shirt]

Literally. She said she'd shoot me if she had to.

[doubleblind]

Holy shit, Sarah.

[coppelganger]

... I don't know how to fix this.

[doubleblind]

[rubs her back]

I know, I know... Reasoning with her didn't work.

[coppelganger]

What are we gonna do? We can't just hide from her, but we can't get near her! And what about the kids around here, and the other people living in the hotel? Sam's, like, eight right now!
