"I...

...I used to be. And I understand it."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Thu Apr 10, 2014 2:23 pm

"Understand the other side of the page or the being scared?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Thu Apr 10, 2014 2:24 pm

"Well...yes, frankly. But I was referring to being scared."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Thu Apr 10, 2014 2:33 pm

"I don't want to be scared. I'm tired of being scared," she said.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Thu Apr 10, 2014 2:55 pm

"That's a good attitude to have."

"I just need to figure out how to stop," she frowned, looking away.

"What are you afraid of, my child?"

by **Miranda Weaver** » Thu Apr 10, 2014 4:35 pm

"The outside. As scary as it was being inside, the outside is just so much... more."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Thu Apr 10, 2014 5:08 pm

"More than you can even imagine. But then, that's where all the really good bits happen, so it's no good to be afraid of that."

"Some good stuff has happened already," she acknowledged. "Miss Weaver seemed really nice."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 1:46 pm

Altamira smirked a little.

"Yes, she can seem that way, can't she?"

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 1:48 pm

Miranda got defensive, "Are you saying she's not?"

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 1:48 pm

"I'm saying she's human, at the end of all things. She tries hard, though."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 1:51 pm

"Nothing wrong with being human."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 1:56 pm

"They just can let you down if you rely on them too much, that's all."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 1:58 pm

"That's a... really depressing way of looking at things," she said after some reflection.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 2:01 pm

"Reality isn't always fun and rainbows, but that might just be personal experience talking."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 2:04 pm

"I know that myself," she said, pointing to the binding around her eyes. "Maybe I just want to see some fun and rainbows in others for once."

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 2:09 pm

"You can find that around here, if you so desire. Just be careful, that's all."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 2:11 pm

"I will," she said, standing up and turning to go.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 2:14 pm

"And remember to have fun!" Mira called after her. "Don't care what other people think."
