The (extremely condensed) story thus far:
Alicia comes to terms with what really happened at the car crash a year ago
So yesterday I had NO internet connection because comcast is being stupid. (which is why I am updating now instead of last night) Actually I still have no internet at home…. I’m at Peets using their wifi. BUT, on the plus side, I got to yesterday’s word quota no problem ^_^
Also, due to the lack of internet access I was seriously considering starting a Yume Nikki fangame just to kill time. Then I realized I had no idea what I was doing in RPG maker…… and I wanted to go online to look up tutorials on how to use the program, but then I remembered…. I had no internet ;_;

The (extremely condensed) story thus far:
After more talking Mark finally tells her flat out that this whole thing is a dream
Alicia doesn’t believe him, even as the entire world is crumbling away (literately) she still denies that she is dreaming. (that’s one stubborn MC)
The floor falls away into an endless black pit, which Alicia falls into
Upon waking up she finds herself back at the car crash that her parents ‘died’ at
In short; Parents OK, Alicia not OK.
Alicia sees her self all mangled up and can not accept that is what she looks like
Well, my MC is still in denial about being in a coma, but she’ll figure it out/accept it tomorrow. Maybe…. I could drag this out longer if I need to though. hmmmm.

The (extremely condensed) story thus far:
Alicia receives an e-mail from Mark, telling her to meet him in the Park
Alicia begins to remember bits and pieces of when she met Mark for the first time and decides to go to the park to meet him
After Alicia finds Mark half frozen in the Park she brings him home
As her ‘mother’ is making them some tea and soup Mark begins to tell her what he knows about what is going on.
First he he tells her is her ‘mother’ isn’t real. At first Alicia rejects this idea before she looks back in the kitchen and sees that her ‘mother’ is no longer there.
and my main character gets just a bit closer to acknowledging the ‘truth’.
