[ Jesse falls silent, even if Polaris continues to hum. A small part of her recoil inwardly at the vented frustration. She's just good at hiding it behind walls. She knows it's not pointed at her or even because of her. Still, she can't help but feel it's because she can't reach him.
She isn't doing enough to save him and make him see what's so obviously in front of her.
Alan is screwed up, slightly unhinged, unpredictable sometimes with the mood swings. But, when he pulls himself together? He's determined, laser focused, and able to make things happen no one else can do. If only he could see it.
« Maybe that is something thats been an issue longer than him being trapped in the Dark Place. It might not be something I can help with. But, if it's being used to keep him down and under the story... zi don't know. I don't know what to do anymore. »
Her gaze drops as she tries to find an answer. All she can think to do is nod. ]
I know. [ « Trying it this way was a bad idea. It doesn't seem to be helping, even if he says otherwise. » ] And, if this Door tries to kill you? Hell have to go through us.
[ Polaris shimmers I'm agreement around Jesse.
She would interject, but instead, opts to be silent. The stream of consciousness from him doesn't have a point in which she could anyways. Instead, she curls her hands gently into his shoulders to try and ground him once more. He doesn't need to drown or to feel he is. He's awake and in Bright Falls, not the Dark Presence.
He must have forgotten about their time in the Motel. Maybe that means he has forgotten about the charm and key to her apartment as well. It's only fitting. Anything that would make him Alan Wake is being washed away or hidden. She isn't sure how to fight the tide back... if she can at all.
Jesse leans back slightly once he returns the kiss. She adjusts how she sits on the desk. One hand curls at the base of his neck and the other wraps around him. This might be the only chance to be them this loop. Until they beat the story. She's certain this could be the last time around. ]
