week one, sunday

[Bellamy has been simmering with rage ever since they found Haru on the beach, and only the fear of making things worse for Nino was able to keep him in check at the execution. He doesn't show up at their hut right away—he makes sure he's calm and steady first, which takes him a while. Nino doesn't need him angry right now, and neither does Jaffar.

The door of the hut is slightly ajar when he approaches, and he knocks on the doorframe first before easing it open. Bellamy has a book in one hand and a small, vibrantly colorful bouquet of flowers in the other. It's nothing, he knows, nothing compared to what just happened to her, but he's been trying to think of anything he could possibly do to cheer her up for the last hour or so, and it's all he's got.]

Hey. Mind if I come in?

week one, sunday

[After the execution, Bellamy doesn't really want to be around anyone. He plants himself on the beach anyway, just in case anything happens, but he's stand offish and looks almost shut down. It's only after everyone disperses that he actually goes to look for Raven. She's the only one he thinks he can handle being around right now, because he knows he doesn't have to put on a brave face for her. It's a relief.

He finds her on the way back to her hut, jogging a bit to catch up. Hey, Raven, everything is fine, right?]

How's your brace holding up?

[It's been sounding concerningly creaky. Also, let's not talk about anything terrible just yet.]
