[ jonas usually defaults to the park when he needs to clear his head, and today is no exception. so while he's walking around fairly aimlessly, he does find himself seeing amelia ahead and gives her a tiny nod of greeting. ]

[ this weekend has been...so brutal on literally everybody, god. ]
I worry about people who don't worry. [ a little blip of honesty. ] It always makes me wonder what will be the breaking point. And how I can help, really.
