Memory 001: Starting over again.

Good morning 625 Topper Street! Usually, the house would be filled with the chatter of the drone!kids and the drone!wife as they start the day all fresh and chirpy. However, this time there's something, or rather someone, who's acting out of the "ordinary" for drones. Rather, when the drone!mum pops up to shake her "daughter" awake, all she gets is a sleepy, "Ten more minutes dad, please...?" Drone!mum shakes her head with exasperation, but gives the teenager the extra time she wants.

Tara is in bed less than that though, as her sleepy mind suddenly realizes that something is not right. Her mom isn't home, she's working out of the country. It's dad who usually wakes her up. And he would NEVER give her ten extra minutes.

Action: 625 Topper Street
Hey Sniper, you have a blonde girl dressed in pyjamas trying to sneak to the phone. She's trying to avoid the drone!mum and the kids, but obviously she's no Spy. However, she does look determined, if not nervous, to get to that phone. Care to speak with her and say hi to your new not!daughter?

Action: Topper Street
She's just had a conversation with her new not!dad, but there's still plenty of things she doesn't get. She's taken to wondering the streets outside now, gaping at the perfect houses and trees that line the entire neighborhood.

Action: School
Mayfield High, there's a new kid who's in town. Tara "Mundy" is looking a little lost though, and she has no idea where the classes are, or even which is her locker. She's going around asking people for help. Maybe she's just waved you over then? Or maybe you see her wandering the corridor? Either way, will you help her out?

Action: Town, after school.
The moment the bell goes, she's out of the place immediately to check out the rest of town. Prison or no, she's not one to turn down the opportunity to go exploring. You might see her around as she checks out the place.

Phone, unfiltered
(She was already told that she had been taken from home, that this wasn't even the USA that she had grown up in. Still, she had to at least try. Her fingers nearly slip as she dials in the number.)
...Dad? Are you there?

Really? I never thought of myself as strong before. I've always had my dad around to help me whenever I needed him.

Ah, but what are you doing now? Calmly looking for him...even if you did just call the entire town...but still.

You're not stuck in a ball, sobbing.

I couldn't just sit around and do nothing. I had to at least try. Crying won't solve the problem.

And that's why you seem like a strong kid, to me.

Really?

...thanks Mokou. That's really nice of you to say something like that to me. I'm really sorry that you had to listen to me whine over the phone.

I'm just expressing what I think's obvious. [that + you are giving her sympathy because daddy issues]

It's fine. [You've never heard HER whine over the phone trolololol.]

How long have you been in Mayfield? You can probably guess that I just got here today.

[She pauses, counting softly to herself in forced Japanese. Ichi, ni, san, shi--]

Four or five months, I think?

Nah, the rush of new guys always comes around this time. It's predictable.

Wow, so you've been here awhile. Is it hard to live here?

[personal profile] reflames 2011-11-13 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh. I know a girl that's been here two years. Four months isn't that long.

By default, yes. But you learn to deal with it.

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-11-13 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
How do you deal with it then? I mean...I've heard this town does crazy stuff every now and then that's pretty dangerous. I'm not sure what I'll do if those things happen.

How you deal with anything stressful, really. It varies from person to person. I just put everything out of mind, personally.

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-11-20 09:07 am (UTC)(link)
I guess...I mean, I'm just a normal school girl, so how I'd deal with it would be different than how an adult deals with it. I'll have to think about it.

Anyway, thanks for all your help Mokou. And...for encouraging me.

[She gives a grunt in acknowledgement.]

Good luck.
