a certain darkness is needed to see the stars
"You look like you're breaking in."
Amalia, too, has been working on cleanup, her desire to help unhindered by the fact that she is here, ostensibly, on vacation. Too much idle time and the shadows begin to creep into her vision, panic and anxiety a steady glacier that will overcome her if she stands too still.
It's easy to find work in a place like this, helps for once that people even here might recognize her name. She has been tasked with helping to repair houses, shore them up for the rain, and though she knows almost nothing about it she finds the work simple, easy to catch onto. She had just finished one set of windows when she was directed to go ask 'Tha 'Bitah' if he needed help; obvious and unsuspecting she'd turned the corner.
And found herself facing him.
"I was told to come to you for a task." Stiff and uncomfortable, Amalia rubs her palm awkwardly over her right wrist "I can go, though. Er..." They'd left things somewhat civil at their last meeting, but she has no idea what Nate may have told her about his foray into the shop.
