SHE WAS NOT JUST GOING TO TRY AND REBOUND AGAIN…. RIGHT???

Metal Raven

Come on Augustus you’re cutting into Lucy’s phone therapy… 😑

Zambies

No wait actually maybe go through Augustus’s phone????

SomeColourMage

oh just continuing to traumatise myself so I can continue to make things worse for everyone, what's up with you?

Snowstar837

I wonder if she was going to smash up the phone before his voice kinda snapped her out of it (though I mean, there's no real reason for them to keep the phone around at this point imo, other than being afraid of Toby/Alej's reactions if they call and it goes straight to voicemail I guess?)

Fiver

She was 100% going to stand there and listen to it ring again. Lucy is litterally just triggering herself on purpose because she thinks she deserves it

PAM

Augustus or Mom?

Rocky Wolfknight

I really want that phone gone cause I been worried it's going to not only come back and bite them, but worried Alejandro may find a way to use that to track them down

nalem

Here I go triggering myself again

tooie

Just alil trauma microdose after the fight. For fun

Addystar

Augustus we are begging you to get rid of that damn phone. Steal Mike’s if you have to, it’d probably help you both

Becca

Wonder how close to home she was during the Sue fiasco. Do you think anyone heard/witnessed any of it?

Becca

Especially considering she probably was not too aware of the world around them during the fight

Elizabeth Hunter

uh oh, has it gotten to the point where she needs to hear the phone ringing to reassure herself that Alejandro doesn't know where she lives...? Because the moment it stops ringing, it could mean he's on his way to finish what he started...? Anxiety is weird; sometimes it makes you cling to the evidence of your trauma, because it reassures you that at least things haven't gotten worse. As long as the trauma is familiar, you don't have to work on facing it, you can just tell yourself you've been 'handling it' (even though you definitely haven't been) without having to open up to anyone about how much it's still affecting you. Lucy really does have serious problems with rejection sensitivity, huh? :(

MCZetra

Heading over to trauma-max again, I see?

esinololly

Whoooaa that is such a fascinating take on why Lucy wants to hear it ringing!!!

Red Miso

Ya know maybe this one time the parents would be right in saying "Its those damn phones"

Paprika

This is not turning out to be a great day for Lucy

Antares

Lucy... :c

hazy

it's not kind or accurate to say victims of abuse trigger themselves on purpose to make others' lives harder
