No problem. Let's see how it goes.
Should I start the next scene? If so, I would need to know how sick David is the next day. If he is still running a high fever, Emma will take him to the hospital rather than try to interrogate him (and a hospital visit is not a scene I am interested playing in detail).

hence my asking your permission for the hookup, at each level
I hope 'dooming her relationship by her actions' would entail more than giving her ex 'permission' to hook up with whomever he feels like?

As I tried to indicate in my post, Persephone is not looking for sex right now, nor really to get back at Emma, so much as simple human comfort. She has been very badly traumatized and was hoping to find support from Emma, but , well, we all know how that went! She's hurting right now, and you know what they say: hurt people hurt people. I imagine if Per and Henry do end up in bed together, she is more likely to ask to be held and immediately fall asleep than anything more explicit. But we shall see!

Persephone is not going to initiate intimacy with Henry. But she will carelessly flirt and make herself available, so to speak, allowing herself to be used if it happens, by anyone who would like to, frankly. If he (or someone else here) does make a move, how it happens will likely determine whether she goes along with it or not. If no one does, she will simply try to fall asleep in someone's arms, even if they remain fully clothed.

The poor girl has just been brutally assaulted and then went to hell, after all; she is dissociating, drunk, and desperate for anything to provide some comfort and solace.

PS This sort of reaction is in line with my own personal experience coping with PTSD, but please let me know if my RPing it makes anyone uncomfortable.
