i'm so lonely.

Belladonna wasn't in the mood to be sweet or kind or anything else, not that she ever really was to begin with. She felt like shit and she wasn't going to cover it up for anyone, even Chimera. When he wanted to know if her mother had been by, she had to hold back a laugh to prevent coughing more. "Hell no. As far as I know, she's not infected." She really couldn't blame her for staying away if she was healthy, but it still stung a bit.

Although her mood was foul, she did appreciate the food. The offer of anything else she needed didn't go unnoticed, but she didn't want to ask for too much even if she felt like she deserved at least something comfortable to lay on. "I'll take anything you have to give." She sighed, exhausted and holding back more coughing. "Thank you."

"Speech."
