[@HushedWhispers] You got it queen. I can probably just have her go missing and just sleep at her brother's grave. Would that be fine? Same situation. Minus the suicide. Sad Ely not wanting to see anyone. The way I had Ely's character sorta shaped was to get to a point in her life where she'd have no choice but to ask her friends for help. I was thinking having her parents call the cops and have them crash one of the parties since she's still a minor and hardly ever comes home and just little scenes like that. My intention is not to be all about sex, drugs, and alcohol. My intention with Ely is a girl fighting depression and struggling to express her feelings to her loved ones. I'll tread lightly for sure, for the topic hits close to home with me as well. That's just part of what makes Ely, Ely. I guess. Her inner sadness. I don't want her to be like her brother though. It was an idea of the moment. Since her Ecstasy abuse is part of why she's even depressed, since it takes out all her dopamine. The bigger the high, the stronger the low. Thanks for letting me know! Sorry for hitting an emotional chord in you. Never my intention.
