This song made me do it. *tries for innocence* Really.
With a little help from canon, I destroyed Lana's world. This is the sad little result. Post S3, spoilers for Covenant.
Unbeta'd, all mistakes mine, own nothing, yadda, yadda, yadda.
Nobody's Home
She opens the door slowly and steps inside, exhaustion written into every line of her face. Lets go of the doorknob and leaves the door wide open, dropping her bags to the floor. Looks around, overcome with memories of a different time, when they were all still alive. She holds a worn shirt and a packet of papers, tightly in her hands.
Chloe’s room is her first stop. She gazes around for long minutes, swallowing visibly.
Next is Gabe’s room. She braces a hand on the door as tears fill her eyes and fall down too pale cheeks.
Her room is last. She collapses on the bed, breath hitching, tears falling like a river. She brings the blue and red flannel shirt to her nose, inhaling deeply. Scattered on the floor are the papers she held so tightly.

Tragic Accident on Interstate 84
Two Dead, Dozens Hospitalized
...died at the scene, Dean Nelson and Nell Potter-Nelson...
Lana lets the shirt fall to the floor and curls up on her bed, arms wrapped around her knees. Her eyes go vacant and empty, the light in them dying.
Days later...
"Hey, lady! Wake up!" The little boy looks warily at the strange woman unmoving on the bed. He at first thinks she's dead, even though her eyes are open, but then he sees her take a breath. He waits for the next one, tension mounting in his small body when it doesn't happen after a minute or so.
"Mom, hey, mom! There's a woman in the bedroom, I think she's dead!"
She wants to go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside...
She's lost inside, lost inside...

Yes, I have a Lana icon. So shoot me. *ducks*
ETA: Changed icon. That better, guys?

But Rai? A Lana icon? *Shakes head* A real Lana icon? If it were one mocking her, that'd be fine, but... *pats* Come back to the dark side, Rai. We have cookies! And Tequila!

Hey, it was last minute, I didn't want to use one of the icons I actually *like*. *grins* And if you have mocking Lana icons, share? I'll then change it. *nods*
Dark side? *looks around* Huh. Didn't realize I had left. *crosses back over*
