Aurelia
'cause not everything means something, honey
so say the unsayable, say the most human things
so say the unsayable, say the most human things
Aurelia's gaze is somber as Adam tells her it's not really possible to fix this mess on her own, and she hates that that's the truth. She would, if it were; take on all of the weight and responsibility - if only to alleviate it from everyone else and perhaps as a way to distract her mind. But she can't, and now all she's left with is the thoughts and feelings that stir within the silences in such an unpleasant way.
A breath billows out through her nostrils, long and relieved, at the mention that Adam's husband wasn't here when it all went up in flames. Her brows quirk upward in curiosity when he seems to want to say something else, that smile not quite having the effect he wants it to have, her gaze turning to the rubble he's kicked.
A forlorn frown takes residence in the lines of her face and she looks back up at him, understanding.
"I'm sorry, I wish there was more I could do..." she looks around at the debris and dark soot around them, "about everything." She'd prefer not to have Sunjata return to find everything in such a sorry fucking state, waiting for him to come and pick up the pieces.
"Were you staying here, Adam?" She asks suddenly, looking at him more directly, "Is that why you're here? If you're looking for your things I can... I can try to help," she grimaces slightly because it may be a lost cause, but she's willing to try all the same. Losing everything isn't easy, especially when you're alone. At the very least, she can offer her help.

if everything is temporary
I will bear the unbearable
I will bear the unbearable
