Isolated Child

Noisy nuisance...making all this fuss. Is it too much to ask to keep such squabbling out of range? Some people would like things quieter than you. 

Can't expect much from anyone who holds value in these belief systems I suppose. All they do is delude themselves into how they will be rewarded if they offer their souls in servtitude while extinguishing those who don't fit their mould. Nature forbid anyone question the all knowing will of the divine. Those who are different, they cannot have been blessed, it means they must be wicked. 

Any such people, or people in general...I'm not wasting my breath further. Got to get outside...I need to get out of this infested crawlspace.

I am...s-sorry to have w-worr-ried an-nyone. 

Y-Yes, it's t-true, I w-was att-tacked outs-side the gr-roun-nds d-dur-ring tr-rain-ning, I s-supp-pose th-they h-had been watch-ching l-long en-nough t-to kn-now when to ex-xp-pect me, and p-pick-ked th-there and th-then f-for an amb-bush. 

B-Banr-ru an-nd T-Tailyp-po w-want-ted an eas-sy t-tar-rget, t-to g-give a m-mess-sage t-to us all. St-till, p-perhaps I d-did surp-prise th-them a b-bit, j-just a little, b-but it is bet-tter than n-noth-thing. Oth-therw-wise it could h-have been worse.

It's n-not that bad, ph-physic-cally I mean, s-so n-no c-conc-cern is n-needed there. Pl-lease, no has-ste is needed on my beh-half, I...

...I...do not...want...anymore...pain to...to be felt...by you all, not...because of me...at least.

Saying...Saying that...was not as...hard as I thought...

[OOC: My bad guys, been busy helping gran who broke her shoulder, but I'll be keeping up better now. And just to clarify, at the end she is referring to managing a whole sentence without a stutter, even though she had to do pause quite a bit. She wanted to show she is serious there.]

It s-seems s-so q-quiet. P-Perhaps it is all the t-tension with the tr-rials. M-Maybe I am st-till n-not used to r-room-ming b-by mys-self...Odd, as I used to b-be s-so ac-ccustom-med to it...

I w-wish y-you all th-the b-best of luck-k, I kn-now you sh-shall all d-do y-your b-best f-for Asg-gard.

Hmm, I m-may j-just go pr-ract-tise m-more mys-self jus-st now...

[OOC: So am trying to get back into things now~ New players, nice to meet you <3 Anyone in Asgard may be able to hear her practising her voice (which she has been doing more of recently) in the Training area, and note her speech is better.]

Umm, th-this is a l-litt-tle st-tr-range, I'm n-not s-sure what-t t-to m-make of it. N-Not l-lik-ke th-this is th-that unc-comf-fortable b-but...

I h-have the st-tr-rangest imp-pulse t-to s-sing. I d-don't ev-ven kn-now if I c-can.

W-Well, I h-hope I'm n-not d-dist-turb-bing an-ny of y-you, as I'm uns-sure if I'll b-be ab-ble t-to st-top...

[OOC: For those in Asgard, feel free to say you've been hearing what sounds like birdsong or high noted singing throughout the house. Note also Morana is able to do this clearly and not fumble as much with her words, not just because of the event, but because her voice training is paying off. ^^]

I'm g-gl-lad y-you ar-re b-bet-tter M-Met-tat-tron, an-nd th-that all c-can b-be w-well ag-gain.

I...s-sup-pos-se I b-bes-st g-go p-pr-ract-tise, n-no t-tim-me l-lik-ke the pr-res-sent...


[OOC: The whole Brandy/Sal revelation has caused her to withdraw a bit I'm afraid, hence why she hasn't spoken on the journals since the truth came out. She'll be distant on the matter while trying to pretned she's okay about everything else.]

O-Oh, I h-hav-ven-n't b-been t-talk-king m-much l-lat-tely h-hav-ve I? I'm s-sorr-ry ev-ver-ryon-ne, I g-guess IU've j-jus-st b-been s-so t-tir-red, t-tr-rying t-to h-help out-t w-with f-find-ding ans-sw-wers t-to h-help M-Met-tat-tr-ron...w-well, s-sorr-ry. I'll t-tr-ry an-nd b-be m-mor-re aw-wak-ke.



[OOC: So yeah, feel free to say you called out to her and she didn't respond, for which she will apologise. You can also take note she has small bags under her eyes and yawning on occassion. Slight guilt on her part for wanting to go outside when there is work to do, but well, she is a 'wild child' as you may call it.]

[OOC: Okay, so am going to be shortly, but yes, a little warning to everyone. Morana has read the word sex in some of the fics, but she doesn't really understand it...Eh, yeah, she might ask inappropriate questions, please don't be offended, she doesn't know any better. ^^;]

S-Seems th-that all of th-the s-st-tr-rang-gen-ness if ov-ver f-for n-now. L-Leav-ves us w-won-nd-dering wh-what t-to d-do n-now th-though...

Hmm, seems Niflheim is one-upping us, again. 

While Lucifer is a prick, we're not exactly getting back at him for it, are we? We're letting them walk all over us. Just because we're the 'good guys' doesn't mean we have to sit back and turn the other cheek. Isn't it the point to stand up to bullies, to show them we won't be pushed around? 

It ain't that surprising I guess, I mean he knew with Metatron weakened we'd be sitting ducks. We're stupid to think they'll play fair with us, so why do we give them all this oppertunity?

He's right about one thing, we're lambs; and we'll be slaughtered unless we do something about it.

[OOC: Oh dear, no stutter, so weird! O_O Um, following suit with everyone else, PLEASE tell me if I'm messing up. ^^;]

[OOC: Okay, she's privately rantng (so as not to worry people) but is trying to think on what she could do to be of use, so feel free to poke her since she's being a bit of a recluse while trying to think on what to do.]

Th-The s-sm-mell is...ch-chok-king m-me. Wh-Why is it s-sud-ddenl-ly s-st-tr-rong-ger? An-nd th-the n-nois-ses ar-re l-loud-der...

[OOC: Strike is a thought. And yes, she doesn't exactly realize the zombies got inside, but she know's something's wrong.]

I n-nev-ver d-did p-pr-rop-perl-ly th-thank ev-ver-ryon-ne f-for  th-their g-gif-fts. I r-reall-ly am g-grat-tef-ful, I've n-nev-ver b-been g-giv-ven p-pr-res-sents b-bef-fore.

Th-Though I am w-won-nder-ring w-what t-to d-do w-with th-this...

[OOC: Happy about her gifts though she doesn't understand some of them. Banru's is the only one she's weary of, for obvious reasons. Also, a little loss of confidence, and worrying over things (like not having the will to fight back) due to what happened with Blythe.]

[OOC: Since Morana is at a loss for this holiday, she'll be going outside, but staying on Asgard grounds like she promised, and picking whatever flowers she can find in the area, bunding them together with string and ribbons, and making them into little holiday bunches, They'll be left outsidethe doors of everyone in Asgard on Christmas Eve with a little tag wishing them Merry Christmas from her, in her childish handwriting, since she's still learning. Hope that's alright with everyone. ^^~]

W-Wint-ter h-has c-come...

T-The s-same as alw-ways...w-when th-then c-col-ld c-com-mes, it m-mar-rks th-the an-niv-vers-sary of  th-the d-darkn-ness...

[OOC: Musing over the anniversary of the eclipse, her 18th birthday, but doesn't realize it. ^^ Later that it should have been, but since game time of one day spans for a few days real time, hopefully this isn't too much of an inconvience everyone. Kinda weird how the date I picked for Morana (24th) is also Deliah's birthday, what are the odds? XD]

[Private to Asgard]

I h-have s-still b-been r-read-ding, s-since th-the p-par-rty...Th-The b-books al-l en-nd w-with h-hap-pily ev-ver af-ft-ter... b-but d-does it w-wor-rk h-here l-like th-that? W-With all th-this p-pain, it s-seems alm-most unr-reachab-ble.

[OOC: She's referring the 18th anniversary of the dark day, a.k.a the eclipse in her world, a.k.a her 18th birthday!~ Only of course Morana doesn't really recognise that, since no one would have ever given cause to celebrate the birth date of the 'cursed child'. Hence, someone might have to explain things to her if she brings it up. Also, hope you don't mind she's bugging Dorian Vic. ^^]

Th-Than-nk y-you t-to ev-ver-ryon-ne f-for as-sking h-how I am. I am f-feel-ling b-bet-ter, h-hopef-ful-ly I'll be ok-kay f-for th-the p-par-rty, an-nd th-the b-band-dages w-will c-come off b-bef-fore th-then. It s-soun-nds l-lik-ke it w-will b-be f-fun. M-Meanwh-while, I'll pr-rac-ct-ise m-my r-read-ding.




[OOC: So yes, Morana has been inspired by the fairytales she's been reading while resting in bed, and decided she wants to dress as a Swan Maiden for the party (kinda like a princess Mitch. ^_~). The inner gown will be seen once she removes the outer robe. It will look like this mostly I think with maybe an added feather or two to decorate her hair and white ballet slippers on her feet. NO HEELS! ^^~ She's not sure what people will think, so apart from Metatron, I think Alessa will be only one who sees what she looks like before the night, since she'll need help getting into the costume and would ask her roommate for assistance. Also, anyone wanting to say they've been to visit her while she's been recovering, feel free. We can assume or log if you wish, since Morana has a free thread. ]

{OOC: Post the attack by Sal everyone. She's resting at the moment, (trying not to cause a fuss, between that and being rather worn out over it all has exhausted her, hence the few words), scratched up from being tossed around,  with one side of her face red and a bit swollen for being slapped. That cheek also has a few small scratches from her face being shoved into a tree, so she had a few wood splinters in face that had to be taken out. Also, am going to bed soon since I've been at work most of the day, so if I suddenly disappear, I'm apologise and will reply to comments tomorrow. ^^~}

[OOC: Since technically it was falling off  the cliff and a combination of landing on the rocks and drowning that caused the little girls death, Morana has no blood on her hands (by my logic that makes sense anyway. ^^;), but doesn't mean she's not thinking about it. *pats her* ]

OOC: Okay everyone, here is Morana's goodbye note, which can be read and commented on IC wise from the morning after Fancy Dress Day. Since she's still learning to write and read, there is spelling mistakes and such, and expect the handwriting to be childish and blotchy. And of course since it's written, no stutter like in her voice posts and comments.

She gave it to Metatron so it can be assumed he read it to everyone or if there's a post about it, I don't mind. This will be my last chance to get this done before I go, so any little OOC things you want to say before I go, please comment here. Otherwise, take care, see you all in about a week! <3~
