Ummmm

[mariaofhatchettown]

It's better than no answer though, right?

does anyone know how Mary’s doing? I kinda miss her from summer:(!

[mariaofhatchettown]

[Maria nods a bit and gets the car back in motion.]

Alright then, home it is

[ Pete walks around the park, the sky darkened as he looks up. He had just left Ovie at the apartment, he shoved his hands in his pocket and looks around. He kicks around a plastic bottle to pass the time,

He yawns quietly. They shiver in the cold, rubbing his bare arms. His black shirt covering his shoulders and a small scar, a little thud for every step he takes. He lets his thoughts take over, ignoring the sounds of owls and other sorts of animals nearby. ]

[mariaofhatchettown]

It's all good though. Nice to actually have my own space- even if it's a little cramped.

[She shrugged and turned the heat on for him, even though she was a little hot.]

Anywhere you need to get to?

[Maria takes it gratefully, pulling out her lighter and offering it to the other girl once her own joint was lit. It had been a minute since she could afford Perky's, and her cart died the day after she got kicked out. She'd been painfully sober for about a week.]

[mariaofhatchettown]

[mariaofhatchettown]

[She pulled over and came to a stop, unlocking the doors]

C'mon dude, I've got an open seat

Y'know I've been better but we're surviving

"I swear you are my guardian angel or something-"

[Maria decided she would just stay parked in front of the Starlight for the night. She hopped out of her car and moved to the back, spotting Rue and offering up a small smile.]

I'm honestly asking myself the same question. Whatever, money's money.

[Okay, so maybe she failed her calculus exam. Maybe she had to choose to not get her highschool diploma. Maybe her Mami got so pissed at her that she was kicked out of the house and was currently living in her car parked in the Lakeside Mall parking lot.

It was fine. Everything was fine. She would survive... somehow.

And maybe picking up a second job was the right move.

That's why Maria Catritzi was approaching the gates of Watcher World. Because she already knew all of the fucked up shit that could and would happen here, there was no real reason for her to fear it... right?

She approached the being in the ticket booth, leaning in with a nervous look on her face.]

I uhm- I was hoping to put in an application?

@mariaofhatchettown

[ As Maria approaches the amusement park, a deep feeling of dread fills her. The man at the booths face dropped, his eyes widen as she spoke. He looked around the small space he had been put and nodded. ]

Little lady, why don’t I get the manager for you?
