((FF))
Hadrian was huddled in his room, as he often was anymore, a blanket wrapped around him with his laptop propped on his stomach, staring at some ice skating videos. Admittedly, most of his fuck up from the Grand Prix and of Ulrich's skating.
He missed the ice sometimes- he couldn't bring himself to go to the local rink, not when so many people knew him there, especially now. He couldn't bring himself to face all the questions and staring. |

Anastasia was standing outside of her brother's room in the family home, a plate full of his favorite snacks at the ready in her hands. It had been hard to watch Hadrian lose so terribly at the Grand Prix, but in truth, it had been harder to watch him wallow in his sadness all these days after. There had been constant reassurance that regardless of flub-up he was still admired and still loved, but most days it looked as if he didn't take the sentiment to heart as he secluded himself away in his room.
She sighed and gave a brief knock at the door.
"Hadi?" She called out. |

| Hadrian glanced up and hit pause on his video, taking the earbuds out of his ears and curling up more. "C'min." he called reluctantly. |

Anna made her way into the room and frowned when she saw her brother curled up on his bed.
"Hadi...Mama sent up some snacks. She said you would probably want to eat soon." She said, setting the plate on the bed before going over to the window in the room to open the curtains and crack it open just a bit for the sake of airflow. It was admittedly stuffy in her brother's room. |

| "Why're you opening the window?" Hadrian pulled a face and reluctantly sat up, watching her before glancing at the snacks and reaching for one. |

| "Because you don't leave your room ever and you need the fresh air." Anna sighed as she proceeded back over to her brother's bed, taking a seat across from him. "When will you get out of this funk?" She asked. |

| "When the sweet embrace of merciful death takes me?" Hadrian said sarcastically and flopped back down on the bed with a pout. |

| "Haaadi." Anna sighed and rolled her eyes as she reached to grab a snack from the plate for herself. "You can't keep hiding like this. You have to get back up. That's what Papa always says, right?" |

| "Get back to what? Busting my ass on the ice?" Hadrian sighed. "I'm awful, Anna. That.. that.. everyone got to see me eat shit and throw away my chance. I had THE chance and I threw it away! I was talking TO Ulrich Svenson and I was such a cry baby!" |

| "I'm not! I'm really not!" Hadrian protested still. "How am I any good! I got nervous and fucking ate it!" |

| "You MADE IT to the Grand Prix, Hadrian! Out of all the hundreds of thousands of hopefuls, you made it that far!" Anna argued back. |

| "And I ruined it." Hadrian sighed, throwing his arms over his face. "I wish I could just erase that day. Not only did I screw up a one in a life time chance, I made a fool of myself in front of the Ulrich." |

| Hadrian sighed. "I dunno. I don't know. I just hate this, I hate looking at articles and forums and seeing the critique, I can't... I just... don't wanna do it anymore. It's not satisfying, it's not fulfilling, I have no inspiration or desire or pull..." |
