[ it's true. just having her here, trying to help, makes everything seem a little less horrifying, even as vaggie's corpse is still in her lap, as her hotel is in shambles around her, as the unseen corpses charlie knows are there littering the rest of the hotel. as charlie's on the precipice of giving up, her mom is there ]
Of course, mom. Of course I'll take you.
[ it doesn't make sense, really, but this is a nightmare, and her mom's always in her heart anyway. it's no trouble. ]

I'll see you soon.
[ vaggie is gone, but her mother is still there, burning hot beneath her skin and then-- darkness. ]
