About a month after the incident, of Emma not eating and hardly sleeping, FELIX sees EMMA crying in the campus garden
FELIX
(It hurts seeing her so upset and miserable…)
Later, Felix and Sophia walk in on EMMA holding a gun
BOTH
Emma, don’t!
EMMA
So, now you care about me?!
EMMA
Well, guess what?!
EMMA holds the gun to her chest with her finger on the trigger as tears pour down her cheeks
EMMA
It’s too late!
Backstory
Backstory: Emma was trying to be a good friend & sister, but it backfired, Emma’s twin cheated with her ex, and chose him over her, Felix, who’s Emma’s best friend, had a girlfriend who cheated on him twice, and when Emma told him about it the second time, he told her off and told her he regretted everything about her being in his life, over the next few months, Emma became depressed more and more feeling unloved and unwanted, and now this is happening, because Emma is desprate and can’t take it anymore. She can only take so much heartbreak, and sadly, her most loved ones, are pushing her to the edge, into a downward spiral that can’t be fixed once she’s in it.
I’m saying to fix your title. The trigger warning is at the end when it’s better to be put in front of the title. So people can decide whether they want to open the whole thread or not. It’s recommended for people sensitive to what you’re discussing.
This, honestly, provokes a lot of emotions and for me, I feel bad for Emma. If you were to add dialogue about Emma shooting herself, I probably would’ve cried. I think you did a good job provoking me.
I would go in more depth with Felix meeting up with Sophia to find Emma.
You should have them both run over to her at this point.
This should be before they reach her. You can also just have one run over while the other tries to calm her down with words to distract Emma. I’m not sure what to put down as dialogue for the distraction though.
