I make it no secret that the stasis bays are under my protection, hopefully with the blessing of our esteemed hardholder. So everyone takes Hx +1 to me.

Jackal, I have to admit I'm intensely curious about some parts of your proposal, but I'm afraid It sounds a little bit like you think you know what's best for me. And nobody knows that better than I do.
But I'll be sure to come by. Maybe you…
I pull my backpack out of the way and sit, then set it on the desk and start to look for my things. Elizabeth whispers harshly at me, which makes me stop and turn my head just a bit towards her.
She says that last bit, about keeping my mouth shut …
I pass Frankie, deliberately keeping my eyes forward as I pass Brad and Todd. My eyes are on my desk, up in the corner near the teacher. But being up front just makes me feel like everyone's laughing behind my back.
You know, maybe I'm just imagini…
For a moment Lali looks at me and probably catches the smallest hint of a smile on my face. I'm strangely happy to see her.
But then Brad and Todd notice me and I try to answer and all that coms out is, "but, I..." and I realize it's the first tim…
Yeah. That's not easy and I'm honestly having trouble getting any further than the door. All these confusing thoughts race through my head as I hesitate.
They haven't seen me yet but something inside tells me I need to be here... I haven't been hom…
Abby is kind of nice. She was crying about how the other girls were treating me... ok. no. Seriously she wasn't. But she told me that she "just got a major cramp from running," and she didn't admit it but I think she may be pregnant. Well, ok before…

Elizabeth is the one who sits next to me. First girl in class who I thought was being nice. The prettier girl, Marina, who sits in the other corner is the worst of them and seeing her sitting there kissing Freddie just makes crystal clear what I sho…
Looks like this happened pretty recently, like... the wounds are gone but they still sting. I've managed to stop crying, but only just. Am I gone? Am I dead? I must be... I know what happened. I remember drawing that painfully dull blade across my w…

2 Strings on Lali for helping her out of a jam (well, she killed me to help hersel…
I reach up to take her hand, scrambling up through the junk. Careful not to drop the back of stuff we've found.
Guess it's back to the car... I walk out of the place quietly, watching corners... never let down your guard near the end of the job.
"Breath of fresh air, huh?" I wait for her to climb ahead, offering a boost of a foot as she lifts herself up. "You don't worry about your 'rep none... think anyone'll believe Rue an' Cinch hang out after hours? They'll just think I'm droppin' names…
We walk up the hall together, feet slogging through the wet, "ain't killed ya yet... you calling me a liar?" I crack a smile and glance at her. "But the island... yeah that oughta take care of it real easy..."
The island... Manhattan island, you kn…
Maybe not so good at hidin' it after all.
She surprises me, askin' about it all personal.
"You are helping me, right?" I look past her into the gloom. "But... look if nobody can make things better it's only gonna get worse..." I let out a puff of …
I clutch the meager bag of meds to my chest, Rue can't see it but the reality of this just hits me.
"Standin' here... wet to the bone an' I got you all busted up for this..." I hold the bag tighter, "you know what, Rue, I was picturin' us rolling o…
Yeah, I raid some of those shelves, find somethin' I can make a kind of torch outta... shouldn't take long. I got a lighter at least, bet Rue has one, too.
We find some meds... but I ain't happy, "not enough..." was hoping for more. Runnin' out he…
"Yeah, he would," I set hands on my hips and look around, squinting into the darkness. "Let's figure somethin' out, huh?"
And I want some light, sure.. this place is creepy.
Hey MC, what can we do for light? Lot of junk laying around and I ain't n…
Ok I don't care for this one bit... gives me a little chill when I hit the water... my shoes are gonna be full up, huh? But hey, we deal...
"Stock room?" I gesture towards the hanging sign with one hand, shielding my face from the wind and general …
Takes me a bit to get it together.... it hurts. Really... couple of breaths to get my nerves settled then I try and climb down. Slow at first, but I probably gain confidence once I'm finally moving... and once I see her down there waiting for me.
"…
"Hell, no!" I can't help but check my six as I talk to Rue over the edge of the ruined hall. "We come this far and I been hurt worse..."
Looks like she mighta got the worst of it, too... damn. I'm sorry Rue.
"Is it... is it clear? I'm comin' down…
