mayfield_rpg | Fourth Horror: I don't want to go home

[Carrie, somehow managed to avoid getting any pranks pulled on her. For once in her life. She's very relieved because of that. She also found her rocking chair in the mail for her. Which was nice.

She was starting to get used to ...well her freedom in Mayfield. Momma wasn't here to tell her what to do, or to yell at her, or to make her pray. They weren't here to make her life miserable. She could ...be normal here. Wear normal clothes, do normal things and not be the freak. It was a strange feeling she wasn't really sure what to do with yet.

A. Housemates can find her carrying a rocking chair up to her room, carefully.

B. She's outside for a walk. Today, is ...actually a pretty nice day. She's looking up at the sky for the moment and might walk into anyone walking down the sidewalk.

C. The park. She's flexing her mind and lifting up a park bench. Standing off to the side and staring at it. Practise after all. Maybe if she practises she won't lose control when she gets angry.]

[Phone]

....I'm sorry to bother people ...again. But I was wondering. Is....changing your citizenship to a country...really just as easy as getting some papers? If...If I change it....I don't have to go back to America do I? .....Can you just leave like that? ...Not this place. I mean ...back home. Is it really that easy to leave?

Mm, yeah! I mean, I guess it's because I don't have any powers myself but it's still amazing to watch what other people can do!

Oh....

Well...I'm still...trying to figure them out...myself.

I see. Well, there's probably a lot of people willing to help you too. I'm sure you'll get to be great with it.

....do you think so?

Of course! Everything takes practice, you just need to dedicate yourself to working on it. It might be frustrating or hard, but sooner or later, I do think you'll be great with your gift.

No...but thank you....

I meant, ....people would want to help me?

Oh, haha! Well, yeah. Anytime I needed help, there was always people around to help me... including people I didn't know to well. I'm sure if you ask, there will be someone out there to help you too.

After all, people with special powers are pretty... um, normal around here.

....there are a lot of nice people here.

[She didn't think there were any of those.]

There is, it's really great. So don't worry too much! You'll be just fine because friends look out for one another.

[Smiles shyly]

...I've never had one of those before here.

Besides Shiro, I've never had friends that weren't like me and I had never met a lot of people that really didn't care about me being a clone either.

But... no one deserves to be alone.

Clone?

[Wait what?]

...no. It's lonely that way.

Yup, a clone. I'm the clone of Queen Elizabeth I to be exact, there used to be a lot of here... Florence, Napoleon, Marie, Freud but now it's just me.

Right, it's horrible that way.

....Oh.

[More focused on the, just me part.]

Why were you alone...back home?

Do you have family?

No, I had my friends but my original wasn't the most... well, she wasn't very outgoing on a personal level. She kept most everyone at a distance. So when I here my life will be just like her life, sometimes I worry that it means I will end up alone in the future.

And no, no parents. No siblings. Though... England is like family to me in a way, even though he doesn't really remember me anymore.

England....the country?

Strange, huh? All the countries are pretty nice though, though... I guess Prussia was weird.

I met Canada and America.

She was nice, he was nicer then I thought he would be.

Oh, I met Canada too. She was really sweet.

Spain is pretty nice too, I helped him wash his pet bull. It was kind of fun.

She is...she said I could come over and visit her sometime.

....and that I could go back with her, if we find a way out.

Really? That's great. I'll have to come and visit sometime then.

She's very nice.

[And it doesn't seem like a trick.]
