Averno
A Meeting Under The Willow Tree
[CASSIA]
So this is it, the big dead end
Let’s get this shit over with
Screw last words
Life’s not as fun when you choose
When you’re ending it
Lets not get morbid, lets not drag this out
Don’t be a coward, take your final bow
What good do last words do
When no one’s around to hear?
Why should I cry, this plot is nothing new?
No choice and nothing to look forward to
Stop stalling, you know what you have to do
This is it
Shit
[spoken]
What are you doing here?

[GRACE]
AH! Oh my god, I’m so sorry, Is this private property?

[CASSIA]
Oh- no, sorry, are you okay?

[GRACE]
Yes, um, sorry I just wanted to clear my head
[CASSIA]
Is that a bottle of whisky?

[GRACE]
Haha... yeah…

[CASSIA]
Mind if I join you?

[GRACE]
Not at all!

[CASSIA]
I’m Cassia

[GRACE]
I’m Grace

[CASSIA]
Is there any particular reason you’re carrying a full bottle of whisky out here?

[GRACE][sung]
It’s been a week, you wouldn’t believe

[CASSIA]
Try me, I’ve heard it all
[GRACE]
My ex threatened her own life so I’d stop drinking alcohol

[CASSIA]
I guess you’re right I haven’t heard that one

GRACE
I had to call the cops, it was super fun

CASSIA
I say we drink to that

GRACE
Cheers

CASSIA
Y’know, I haven’t had a drink in years

[GRACE] [spoken]
Well here’s to that too

[CASSIA]
UGH this tastes horrible

[GRACE]
Really? I hadn’t noticed
What are you doing out here anyway?
[CASSIA]
Dying

[GRACE]
HAHAHA
*silence*
Oh, uh, sorry

[CASSIA]
Don’t worry, I’m not anymore

[GRACE]
I won’t try to make sense of that
*downs the rest of the whisky*

[GRACE & CASSIA] [sung]
I haven’t been to this old willow tree in years
It’s almost like no time has passed

[GRACE]
I’m just a ghost of whom I used to be

[CASSIA]
Lying out here in the grass
