         She is insane. That’s the only words he really can put to the exasperation that’s sputtering at his lips as he rises up from the sofa with his beer in hand. Holding a hand up with a short gesture toward Logan; a short beckon to please - please be quiet. With the way she was looking at him he’s not sure if she’d appreciate his sister’s boyfriend asking him to kick out his girl, or .. whatever Clara was now to him. She’s changed drastically, horridly even over the past few days and he’s unsure exactly how to approach each situation that had arrived. Maybe he’d hoped that under all of this madness that clever and charming woman he’d met last week would still be there.

       Any regret he’d felt over taking the bet was all but gone now; now it was only a waiting game. Right? Right?  “No- no, Clara I’m not.” He rounds the sofa, voice raising when he hears Logan sigh loudly and turn the television up louder to hear the fights better over Clara’s screaming. “I would never - let us die, I swear. The plants not dead- it’s jus... sleeping? These things sleep right - Clara-” He holds his hands up, “Calm down.”
