Down to the Waterline

The Estate's meticulously kept gardens, including a hedgemaze that students have occasionally described as "sadistic" and a sizeable rose garden. Benches in shaded spots are plentiful, and the gardens are popular to study in on pleasant days.

Down to the Waterline

Postby Kay Haddock » Fri Feb 08, 2013 3:27 pm

Kay was running pretty fast, first aimlessly but then roughly heading towards the ocean where she knew no one could follow. Still, Brigid would probably manage to catch up with her as she's heading across the grounds.

"Kay, wait!" Brigid called, running after the fish girl.

Kay doesn't stop, though she's not nearly as fast as Brigid. Or has as much stamina, especially since she's still sobbing. And soon enough she slowly down and then comes to a stop. "I... I didn't..."

"Come on, Kay! He's just being a jerk," she said as she caught up.

"I didn't send any emails... No one was supposed to see that..." she sobs out, still not turning around.

"Yeah..." she says, suddenly sounding even more worried and forlorn as she desperately tries to recall all the things she scribbled down in there. "Yeah it is."

"I dunno. She was after Alex too and it's not like there's that many guys here. Just... she has that mean-spirited better-than-you tone that... that makes them throw fish heads at you..." she says meekly, sounding almost resigned.
