FORGE

[The Showmaster leads you through the dark stage and you find yourself entering something that looks like a very nice and expensive classroom.

Each desk is spacious with drawers that you will conveniently find any important item that had been on your person or that you feel like you would need here. Each chair is cushy and swivels.

Sitting on top of the teacher's desk is a young girl, older teen / younger adult in age at most, hair that looks like mint cotton candy that probably reaches down to her ankles. She has a knee drawn up to her body, resting her chin on top as she scours the room of who arrived . . .

And then she looks at you all with disdain and slight fear in her face. You'll notice that her purple eyes shifts when she makes the scowl, it goes from a solid purple to a purple mixed in with this symbol in green also.]

I thought you guys might have been the exception, but oh no, no, no. Absolutely NOT.

I think we'll all benefit from that.

Yeah. Just...don't go too hard. Ya don't know what's comin'.

Re: DISCUSSION

[friend_request]

It's rare to know what's coming in general, in life.

Re: DISCUSSION

[takeyoutochurch]

Ya usually have some idea if ya pull together the information ya got. Pay attention to the world around ya and things take shape pretty quick.

Sometimes. . . it isn't so simple.

Re: DISCUSSION

[takeyoutochurch]

It is, though. What's so hard about it?

The past informs the present and in turn the future. And what we see around us tells us what might be coming. But if the past can so easily be made to vanish then so can our expectations.

Re: DISCUSSION

[takeyoutochurch]

Nah. The past ain't erased so easily. There's still traces of it everywhere, as long as yer lookin'.

Re: DISCUSSION

Perhaps I'll have to ask for your assistance sometime then.

That's what Family's here for. Glad yer catchin' on.

I'm guessin' ya got some kind of amnesia, yeah? Me too. So ya ain't the only one. I get that it's hard, but the best thing to do is not worry about it so much.

Re: DISCUSSION

[ haha ]

That easy to see, is it? Most of the time I don't but sometimes you can't help but have the thought.

Re: DISCUSSION

[takeyoutochurch]

Amnesia's pretty common in the Families. It ain't that ya stand out so much as it is that we know to expect it.

Re: DISCUSSION

[friend_request]

Aha. . . well. That's fair enough.
