Re: Episode 101: The Crow and The Butterfly
At first the wake was a really weird experience for Zoey, she didn't know how to handle it, all these people here to celebrate her and reminisce, yet she didn't feel like she'd left anyone. She was still in the middle of the room, standing among them, speaking to them, but none of them knew it. It wasn't a very big crowd because as she soon realized some of her closest friends didn't even know she was dead. She'd helped so many people disappear, she'd never thought to prepare for the day that she'd be gone to the world. She stood in the bar for a moment just thinking to herself, acknowledging the irony of how she'd spent so long hiding in plain sight that now when she wanted to be heard most, no one could hear her screaming right in front of them. As her music played, she couldn't help but smile, she saw the crowd migrate to the dance floor. She saw the love in the few but very important faces and watched one of the things she loved the most, making them dance, making them happy, making them feel what she felt through her mixes, and with all her overwhelming emotions for the first time she joined them in celebrating herself.
By the time the others had arrived back at the wake, Zoey could be seen in the middle of the dance floor, dancing like she was having the biggest blast of her life. She spun and caught a glimpse of them standing in the doorway. She stopped quickly as reality settled back in, her smile faded slightly and she approached. "Hey, your back. I'm assuming you guys got everything... Let's talk upstairs in Jack's place, there'll be uhh less distractions up there" She said as she made a quick glance around the bar.
