I need you.

I left the relationship when I found out I was pregnant, he never wanted kids until we were secure and I understood that, a misshap with my pills didn’t. I didn’t want him to be forced into being a father and so I broke up with him via a letter, changed my number, emails, usernames and moved out of town.

To start, it was lonely, but I was used to having a quiet life, Mom left when I was 6 and dad died when I was 14. My older sister was around but never home, so I fended for myself quietly until I met Justin, my soul mate. There is nothing I've ever been more secure in than mine and Justin's relationship.

I don’t believe in abortion, not for any religious reasons or higher motives.. I just don’t agree with it, unless it's a pregnancy that will harm mom or baby, or the mom was raped. But this baby? I opened my legs and messed up, so I'll love it with all of my heart. Luckily, money is no issue, I was left with plenty of it from Dad, which I'll be eternally grateful for.

So here I am, in my home, I've just put the last lick of paint on the wall of the nursery and I'm eating indian food. I'm due any time now, my new neighbour, Alice offered to drive me when I go into labor, which makes me feel at ease seeing as I have been having Braxton hicks.

I look at my phone and it's late, 2.18AM to be precise, but I have nothing to be up early for, so I suppose binge watching the good life is a good plan, plus baby is very active tonight. I rub my bump gently as I sip gently from the mango lassi, feeling my daughter fist bump me through my belly button, "good little girl" I smile and I lay back on my bed.

A few hours go by and it's light outside now, the birds are chirping. Naturally, I shut the curtains and crawl back under my duvet. As I crawl back in I feel a dampness between my legs, not soaking, but a dampness and I reach down to feel around. It doesn’t smell of anything really, so I just pull off my panties, get comfortable and snuggle up to my pregnancy pillow, I have peed myself a few times this pregnancy, it's not something I'm unfamiliar with.

It's when my nipples start to leak that I finally get up and accept that I probably need to get out of bed. I reopen the curtains and do a big stretch looking out of the window at the beach. As I extend my right arm I feel a stabbing pain in the lower left side of my abdomen causing my to lean onto the windowsill and lose my breath a little. I move back to the bed and sit on the edge, attempting to catch my breath.

I rub my stomach gently and get an intense cramp in my back, "shit, this is why you shouldn't go into labor on your own? Huh?" I say to myself in the reflection of my window. I breathe through the contraction and when it comes to an end I grab my robe and swing it on to knock Alice's door. Her 14 year old daughter answers with her boyfriend "what's up Luce?" She asks. "Is your mom home?" I ask and she shakes her head "No, her and dad have gone away for a few nights, are you okay?" She asks. I nod my head and walk back to my house freaking out.

I open my front door and immediately walk to my kitchen and put the kettle on, I look at my phone scrolling through names but I know nobody knows where I am. Justin.. out of everyone, surely.. surely he is the person I should contact. I make a cup of tea and walk to my island, leaning my bump on the edge as the next contraction hits, I pick up a wooden spoon and rub my lower back as hard as I can on it, it barely makes a difference as I whine and pant through the pain, but what other option do I have.

I hover over the green button for a few minutes before pressing it, knowing I could just put it down if I got to scared, Justin doesn’t know this number. It rings a few times and he picks up "Justin here, who's calling?". He sounds broken, he sounds sad.. I take a deep breath before answering him quietly "Hey, its.. its me".

"Luce? Lucy? You're fucking kidding me, you leave, 7 months goes by and you think you can call me saying it's me? Its fucking me?" He shouts, he rarely used to lose his temper. I lick my lips as they've dried up and speak back "I'm not apologising over the phone, you deserve more than that but Justin, I need your help? I need you to come help me.. will you?" I ask in a high pitched tone as I start to get another contraction. He answers bluntly "send me your address, how far away are you?". I send it via text as we speak and answer through the panting "forty minutes tops, I need you to get here quickly though, I don’t know how long I have" I manage to say with out moaning. "Are you okay? Lucy, tell me you're okay?" He demands. "Justin, I am okay, please be quick" I answer softly before pressing the red button and turning my back to the island, pressing it into my back to relieve pressure.

Twenty minutes fly by and go to my window to watch for him, sitting on the window sill. "Hang in there baby" I say softly before reaching between my legs. I'm pretty sure my waters are trickling out, you expect a huge splash to come out of you like the movies so when it happens like this you second guess yourself.

I watch his truck pull up and he gets out, looking at the window. I walk to the door, holding my robe across my belly, supporting my underbelly with my other hand. I open the door and see him stood there, his face makes me smile instantly and he looks at me up and down, seeing my huge stomach and looks back at my face. "Lucy, please.. please don’t tell me this is why you left? Because you're? You're pregnant?" He says in a croaky, emotional voice.

"I think you should come in" I say through my smile, he comes in and puts his arms around me tight, hugging me "careful" I say softly before feeling the warmth gush on my legs "there’s that classic movie gush" I laugh and he steps back "oh my god, you're in labor? Did I just? Are you okay?" He says reaching his hand to my stomach. "I'm okay, I just -" I say before realising I'm not okay, the pain intensifies greatly and I turn to my stairs and put my weight on my banister "Justin my back, here" I say pulling his arm to my lower back and feeling him work on it.

"Justin I need to get to the hospital" I say as I get my breath back and I turn to look at him. "You should have told me, I wouldn't have been mad" he says softly as he tucks my hair behind my ear. "I didn’t want to force fatherhood on you, I know how strongly you feel about waiting until it's the right time" I say gently as I sit on the staircase. "Lucy, I want to be a Dad, I want to have this baby with you of course I do, I would have loved to experience your pregnancy with you too" he says as he rubs my stomach.

I feel another contraction and shake my head "they're too close together, they're on top of each other" I say crossing my legs. I stand up and wince, holding my back before Justin supports it for me, opening the door and walking me to the truck as I pant. I sit in the passenger seat and turn to look at Justin as he gets in "I need to push" I whisper and see his face change. "Lucy the hospital is only about 25 minutes away, you can hold it right?" He says sternly as I grab myself tight and shake my head "get me back inside, I need to push her out".

Justin looks at me for a moment before shaking his head and getting out, he picks me up from my seat and runs back inside putting me on the sofa. I sit in the corner of the corner sofa, with both legs wide open and supported on either side as it parts. I reach down and try to feel my dilation but cant reach as far as I need to. Justin is fetching towels and scissors and I try to shape my body so I can feel for the head but my belly is just way too big.

He runs back in and kneels in front of me and I take a towel from him to squeeze and bite on for pushing. At this point I'm so absorbed in the pain I'm finding it difficult to focus "babe, fingers" I mutter as I pant "put them in, see how many you can fit" I manage to say quickly "Is it safe to push?" He pushes his fingers into me and I wince a little and pull my body back. "I cant get them in, I think the heads already here?" He says as he feels the top of the head near my lips.

"Mm okay, fuck" I say as I push myself back on the sofa. I start to pant as the contraction peaks and I look down at Justin, who's eagerly waiting to catch his baby. "You've got a while yet, you need to tell me exactly what's happening when it happens okay? I'm going to push" I say in a strained voice as I begin to push a little. "Gaahh" I moan as the push comes to a stop and I catch my breath whilst rubbing my bump.

"Nothing happened" Justin says softly and I nod "I just needed to practice" I answer as I push myself further back on the sofa and bring the towel to my side. I pant frantically and squeeze the towel with my hand as I push, feeling the baby move a little but not much, I look at Justin and he smiles "keep going". I push harder and my face turns a little red, I finally take another breath and push again "nnggggggg" I moan and Justin's eyes widen as he realises how much pain I'm in from the sound of my moan.

"Lucy, the heads getting closer" he says. I catch my breath for a moment and look at him "okay, okay, when you see the head move down, you can pull my lips a little further apart to give baby room. When her head is out, check for a chord around her neck and slip it over" I moan as the pain returns again "the head" I mutter as I push again feeling myself open up "aahhhhh" I scream as the head starts to crown but I cross my legs quickly to stop the burning.

Justin looks up and his eyes widen "Lucy spread your legs, the head was nearly out". I shake my head and begin to tear up "Justin I cant, I cant do this" I cry as he climbs up by me "were going to be parents, I know it hurts, but you've done so well, once the heads out were nearly there yeah?" He says pulling my leg over "I'm here" I says as he kneels again "deep big push yeah?" He says softly.

I pull my legs back to my armpits and pant ready for pushing. I accept that I'm probably going to tear, baby has measured big since the start but since that push, I felt how big her head was. I take a deep breath and press my chin to my chest letting out a high pitched scream "UUUHHHHH". I feel the need to shut my legs but keep them open and hold my breath as the head crowns fully and stops moving as I stop pushing "JESUS THAT FUCKING HURTS" I say as I cry and push my body up off the sofa, trying to relieve the pain somehow "blow on it, Justin, blow around the head, anything" I splutter as I wince.

He rubs around the head and blows a little "stop, that makes it worse, stop please, stop" I say before putting the towel in my mouth to bite down on. I start to push weakly and add more pressure, with my muffled moans coming from the towel. I pull it out and scream louder "get it out" as I feel myself tear and hear a pop with a huge gush of fluid covering Justin's t shirt.

"The chord, check for the chord" I say seeing Justin check and smile shaking his head "no chord". I lean back and breathe deep breaths, letting out sounds when I breathe out. "She looks exactly like you" Justin whispers, already besotted by her. I smile and look at him "Can you move back? And put the towel down on the floor, I need to squat to get her out" I say calmly as I lift my body to the floor, my legs wide and my bump hanging between them.

I rub my belly and lean back on the sofa "okay little girl, ready to meet us?" I smile before holding my breath and pushing deeply, letting out a guttural groan "nnggggggaaaaaaa". She moves a little and I reach down to feel around the head, feeling the warmth of the blood dripping on me. "I cant push any harder Just" I say softly before spreading my legs a bit more and trying to push again but feel no progress.

"Put one leg on the sofa and try to squat with the other one, it should open you up a bit" Justin says helping me into an almost lunging position. "Ugghhh" I moan as I push feeling myself open up slightly "Put your hands there ready" I snap at him before beginning to push. "That's it, push our baby out" he smiles as I groan a high pitched moan. "You're doing it, keep going, focus, dont let it slip" he says sternly and I push even harder to make sure this is the last one "AHHHHHHH" I scream as I feel her shoulders open me up and her body slide out.

Her cries fill the room and I slowly lower my leg ensuring that the chord is safe. I sit on the edge of the sofa and take my shirt off quickly taking her from Justin. He lays her on my chest gently as she cries and I rub her back "Oh my girl" I cry "beautiful little girl" I add as I look at Justin, tearfully admiring the both of us.

Hancock Ave., in downtown Athens; like all other Third Thursday venues, admission is free and all ages are allowed. CCBC Gallery art shows are presented by Get Artistic, Creature Comforts’ community impact program to support the arts. After its inaugural Third Thursday this month, the gallery will be dark in November and December, returning in January.

Creature Comforts Brewing Co.’s CCBC Gallery

“Creatures of the Night” — A Halloween-inspired installation of fantastical creature silhouettes designed by artist Elinor Saragoussi. Nearly a dozen of the artist’s sketches will be transformed into larger-than-life paper cut-outs that are then pasted onto Creature Comforts’ tasting room walls. Saragoussi is an illustrator, designer, textile artist and musician in Athens.

Lecture: Gavin Pretor-Pinney, 5:30 p.m. — In his talk, “Cloudspotting For Beginners,” Gavin Pretor-Pinney, founder of the Cloud Appreciation Society, takes you on an illustrated tour of the sky. He shows how to recognize many of the varied and beautiful cloud formations, including how various cloud types appear in works of art in the museum’s permanent collection.

Yoga in the Galleries, 6 p.m. — Join us for a yoga class surrounded by works of art in the galleries. Led by instructors from Five Points Yoga, this program is free and open to both beginner and experienced yogis.

“Baci from Cortona” — Celebrating 50 years of UGA in Cortona, this show features a series of photographs, both professional and personal, that document this history.

“Immortal Beloved” — Dodd MFA candidate Robby Toles challenges authenticity as the artist’s image takes precedence over place and questions where the ‘real’ might exist if everything is performed.

On view:

Brittainy Lauback photographs cruise life, capturing the seascapes and portraits aboard a Carnival ship. Warren Slater draws from his Australian upbringing and interest in Aboriginal mark-making to create his pulsating pointillist landscapes picturing beaches and surf culture. Hannah Betzel’s vivid abstractions vibrate almost musically, conjuring images of the sea.

“Building Facades” — In Gallery II, on the second floor, Mike Landers’ solo exhibition of sophisticated, symmetric, minimally composed photographs will take you down memory lane. Images of Barnett’s Newsstand, Helix and the Gap will make you nostalgic for nights wandering downtown Athens of the late 1990s and early 2000s and make you realize how much has changed.

Third Thursday was established in 2012 to encourage attendance at Athens’ established art venues through coordination and co-promotion by the organizing entities. Rack cards promoting Third Thursday and visual art in Athens are available upon request. This schedule and venue locations and regular hours can be found at 3thurs.org.

Liberty Begins Selling Smokable Cannabis in Florida

Liberty Health Sciences has gained approval to sell smokable cannabis at its dispensaries across Florida after Gov. Ron DeSantis repealed the ban last week. He noted that more than 70% of Floridians voted in favour of medicinal marijuana and added that he was pleased to sign SB182 into law. Each dispensary has to submit an application to the Florida Department of Health before it can begin selling full cannabis flower to patients. Trulieve and Curaleaf were the only operators approved to sell smokable cannabis and Trulieve stole a march on its rivals when it began sales at its 26 dispensaries last week. Liberty can now officially join the party, and it is now just awaiting approval to sell pre-rolls to patients. “This is truly a historic moment not only for Liberty Health Sciences but for the state of Florida,” said Victor E. Mancebo, interim chief executive at Liberty. “Receiving DOH approval is monumental for Liberty and its ability to offer patients an additional medicinal option. Patients in Florida have been eager for this bill to pass as there is a fundamental need for this medicine in all of its forms.”

A Boost to Florida’s Industry

Smoking cannabis flower remains the most popular way to consume marijuana and the patient count is now expected to grow in the Sunshine State. It is a competitive market, with Trulieve currently enjoying a dominant position, but Liberty is well placed to seize a strong share as the sector grows. Last week the firm opened its 12th dispensary in Florida. It chose Gainesville, where its headquarters lie, as the location for the new 1,934 sq. ft. store. That was Liberty’s fourth new dispensary of 2019 and Mancebo pledged to “continue to pick up aggressive momentum”. It follows on from dispensaries in Dania Beach, Merritt Island, Miami, North Miami, Palm Harbor, Port St. Lucie, St. Petersburg, Summerfield, Tampa, Orange Park, and Winter Haven. The firm has a 20,000 sq. ft. cultivation facility in Gainesville, which is an hour southwest of Jacksonville, and 40,000 sq. ft. of cultivation space in nearby Alachua. It plans to add another 160,000 sq. ft. this year to meet growing demand for its products, while it has also promised to increase its workforce by 50% to 300 people.

Mancebo Aiming to Steady the Ship

Shares in Liberty tanked last year after the Hindenburg short seller attack on Aphria also targeted it. The price decreased by 41.8% from C$1.41 at the end of November to $0.82 by Dec. 5. It recovered somewhat to $0.93 by the end of 2018 and that is its current price today after much upheaval in the boardroom. Ian McKinnon and John Hick joined the board of directors on Jan. 18, after the resignations of John Cervini and Vic Neufeld, the former Aphria chief executive. Chief executive George Scorsis said their arrivals would strengthen the firm’s corporate governance, but a couple of weeks later both men resigned. Then Scorsis left on Feb. 22 along with chief financial officer Rene Gulliver. Mancebo took on the role of interim chief executive, and director of finance Scott Myers was promoted to the role of interim chief financial officer. The firm’s share price hit a high for 2019 of $1.20 on Feb. 22, but it has been steadily decreasing since the news of Scorsis’ departure was announced. Mancebo and Myers are bidding to steady the ship while an effort to recruit a permanent chief executive and chief financial officer goes on. Read the full article

like the be all end all of the areaEcarbmetI: is the questionFlamelessNight: uh probably the one people would more likely go tooFlamelessNight: since cityEcarbmetI: Even if theyre a noob thoFlamelessNight: it'd probably piss the hicks offFlamelessNight: yeah I imagineFlamelessNight: if I were a dead I wouldn't put in the time to go out into BFE EcarbmetI: Yeah but what if you had been

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2DFu7oWit0EcarbmetI: so my next question isEcarbmetI: Pick a number between 1 and 198 FlamelessNight: uhFlamelessNight: 168EcarbmetI: lawlEcarbmetI: so the way im doing thisEcarbmetI: that took it to 1849 EcarbmetI: thats when J was born lulFlamelessNight: :B don't think he was in memphisEcarbmetI: no but lolEcarbmetI: he was in fishguard if u must knoFlamelessNight: :BFlamelessNight: not memphisEcarbmetI: so its a strong cotton and slave trade city that is some 10 give or take years from succeeding from the union FlamelessNight: jesusFlamelessNight: I literally know nothing about this area besides ElvisEcarbmetI: so my next question is EcarbmetI: Is this simply the beginning, is it where the story itself begins, or is this something that already has come to pass FlamelessNight: got to know where you came from to know where you going, or. . something like thatFlamelessNight: so probably the start of what's to comeEcarbmetI: So this is the setting FlamelessNight: slaves cotton and humble beginingsFlamelessNight: tumblr would hate itEcarbmetI: Well guess what youre missing out on then most likely EcarbmetI: yellow feaver epidemic congratsFlamelessNight: lawlFlamelessNight: oh did that happen alreadyEcarbmetI: noFlamelessNight: oh boyEcarbmetI: late 1870sFlamelessNight: sexyEcarbmetI: butEcarbmetI: if you are an adult give or take in 1849FlamelessNight: you will probably be dead by thenEcarbmetI: and you survive the civil war and all thatFlamelessNight: so it's fineEcarbmetI: seems like its a paranormal sort of deal doesnt itFlamelessNight: ProbablyEcarbmetI: in 1861 your state separates from the USAEcarbmetI: what is going on in your life EcarbmetI: that isEcarbmetI: who are the progagonists of this story FlamelessNight: the harder partFlamelessNight: for the sake of this, I won't just throw down my default answer of vampireEcarbmetI: Youre roughly 30 give or take EcarbmetI: Not saying its yourFlamelessNight: there's other things out there that's supernatural and live for a long timeEcarbmetI: physical age butEcarbmetI: Youre already an old person :B congratsFlamelessNight: HmFlamelessNight: You winFlamelessNight: :BEcarbmetI: also vampires are fair game alwaysFlamelessNight: Always but sometimes it's nice to do something elseFlamelessNight: something that can move around in the daytime :BEcarbmetI: Witches are a good betEcarbmetI: In fact they have a Bell Witch legendFlamelessNight: oohFlamelessNight: What's that?EcarbmetI: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_WitchFlamelessNight: Well that's interestingFlamelessNight: I do like witchesFlamelessNight: I was thinking demon but. . I am a perdictable fuckerEcarbmetI: That is fine tooFlamelessNight: I like the witchFlamelessNight: lady witch, gingerEcarbmetI: Is it actually a witch or is that just the general assumptionFlamelessNight: I think there's truth in it butEcarbmetI: Or are you Anne Rice because fuck it the witches are dead tooFlamelessNight: lawl witches are not deadFlamelessNight: I am more on the mystical not dead side of witchy shitFlamelessNight: but no there's truth to it but the talk around the town is way more extreme then what it actually isFlamelessNight: Bit too forward thinkingFlamelessNight: doesn't go to church on sundays EcarbmetI: How in tune to human going ons are you FlamelessNight: Hm fair enough, good to keep up with what's going inFlamelessNight: More so with like. . not the richy upper class folkEcarbmetI: Well that sucks because after leaving the union your city gets captured a year later FlamelessNight: well crapEcarbmetI: its fine your city is propserous EcarbmetI: But there are POWs and some crazy people trying to free them and all that good stuffEcarbmetI: but youre at a good railroad crossing point thanks to your nice slave and cotton trade so you have supplies and all that and probably arent so involved as to be a POW yourselfEcarbmetI: Live your life, congratsFlamelessNight: oh boy she has slavesEcarbmetI: Well EcarbmetI: a lot of slaves fled to behind the union lines EcarbmetI: but EcarbmetI: a lot of union officers were corrupted because of the necsssity of the cotton they now had under their controlFlamelessNight: well that's super shittyEcarbmetI: In fact a lot of black people fled to Memphis because it was a union stronghold in the southEcarbmetI: so your 3000 or whatever black populatin is now like 20kEcarbmetI: But you know rich white people didnt like that and rioted and killed a bunchEcarbmetI: Your city is kind of fucked upFlamelessNight: GreatEcarbmetI: Dont hang in those circles youll be fineFlamelessNight: maybe it's less owning and more gonna keep them safeEcarbmetI: but I dont think youre part of it anyway EcarbmetI: Because as it turns out rich white people arent too keen on weirdosFlamelessNight: yeah noFlamelessNight: not a lot of people are keen on the weirdEcarbmetI: So, who are you savvy keen onFlamelessNight: that's fineFlamelessNight: the common or kindred spirits though there's a deep lack in thatEcarbmetI: True butEcarbmetI: Youre in the middle of a war and theres people living in your city from the more liberal north EcarbmetI: So potentially your little circle can expand fairly easilyEcarbmetI: orFlamelessNight: which would be niceEcarbmetI: your area has its own rich culture of oddities and ritual from even further south EcarbmetI: which surely you know something ofEcarbmetI: via slave tradeFlamelessNight: oh surelyFlamelessNight: if anything picked it up through talkingFlamelessNight: or 'boarding' peopleEcarbmetI: Just saying you have options :BFlamelessNight: as nice as the liberal north is :B this is a southern witch so expanding further south would have it's drawsEcarbmetI: Sure but youre going to be ostracized further by your own people and youre going to cause some confusion. . EcarbmetI: because surely you have slaves from before this conflict even if they dont act in this capacity EcarbmetI: And again your city is now a union stronghold FlamelessNight: hmEcarbmetI: theres no wrong answers :BEcarbmetI: just changes the setting a bitEcarbmetI: with every choiceFlamelessNight: I figured :BEcarbmetI: So, do the northerners find out youre kinda . . boarding these people FlamelessNight: probably best to not cause confusion right nowFlamelessNight: all things consideredFlamelessNight: uhFlamelessNight: if they proad aroundFlamelessNight: they might put two and two togetherEcarbmetI: Is this a good thing ?FlamelessNight: mean they do 'work'FlamelessNight: I imagine it'd depend on who finds outEcarbmetI: Well, how public is this knowledge made?EcarbmetI: Do you ally yourself to their general cause? EcarbmetI: Keep in mind theyve housed thousands of escaped slaves just south of the main city limitsFlamelessNight: I don't think it's a very public known thingFlamelessNight: and it might possibly raise a brow or twoEcarbmetI: Well if youre just hoarding people EcarbmetI: You might draw the attention of the soldiers FlamelessNight: defo not hoardingEcarbmetI: :BFlamelessNight: just trying to keep people safe :BFlamelessNight: they can goEcarbmetI: Sure butFlamelessNight: they can stayEcarbmetI: by acquiring them? :BFlamelessNight: MmEcarbmetI: If youre just letting them in FlamelessNight: Might have started that wayEcarbmetI: Thats going to raise a lot of eyebrows FlamelessNight: Very of the notion people are not meant to be ownedFlamelessNight: probably started with saving some kidsFlamelessNight: expanded from thereFlamelessNight: and then when the influx happened if anyone showed up on her door. . wellFlamelessNight: wouldn't be right to shut them outEcarbmetI: Well two things happenEcarbmetI: You become known as a safe house that isnt very underground which is good for the northerners but your own people will probably turn on youEcarbmetI: Or the northerners just notice you with 38904 people and think youre part of a slave trade thing in which case your house is probably stormed unles you explain EcarbmetI: Which means they know FlamelessNight: then they knowEcarbmetI: Kind of shitty EcarbmetI: Ahhhh but guess what EcarbmetI: A lot of them end up allying themselves with the union which is fantastic ! Except that a lot of your neighbours are pissed off about black escaped slave soldiers EcarbmetI: And riot and destroy their property and all that shit and a couple dozen die FlamelessNight: Oh greatEcarbmetI: And youre super suspicious FlamelessNight: perfectEcarbmetI: But EcarbmetI: At least you had a real house and not a makeshift one on the city limitsEcarbmetI: So youre . . fine EcarbmetI: A large amount of your people are fine EcarbmetI: And because you are allied to the union you even get a medic sent over EcarbmetI: Now whatFlamelessNight: NiceFlamelessNight: Medics are usefulEcarbmetI: WellFlamelessNight: can help with the hurt or the sickEcarbmetI: hes a kidFlamelessNight: that's. . how much a kidFlamelessNight: 10FlamelessNight: 20FlamelessNight: freshly pulled into the fightFlamelessNight: barely out of medical training :BEcarbmetI: Like maybe 19 FlamelessNight: Oh christEcarbmetI: But hes been involved for a whileFlamelessNight: alright that's fineEcarbmetI: hes goodFlamelessNight: can learn some off of himFlamelessNight: can teach him some natural medicines that are useful, it's fineEcarbmetI: and theres two ocs and a plausible reason theyd be together at one point and stay together for some period of timeFlamelessNight: he's good so prob don't have to show him how to stitch woundsEcarbmetI: yorue welcome FlamelessNight: well now whatEcarbmetI: wellEcarbmetI: He probably sticks around because a) hes white and b) can move around without suspicion since hes technically one of the outside inhabitors EcarbmetI: and c) you have a lot of people to concern yourself withEcarbmetI: which is fine FlamelessNight: would be nice to have someone who can go outside and likeFlamelessNight: get thingsEcarbmetI: Youre setEcarbmetI: and nobody shoots the medic its rulesFlamelessNight: is that a ruleEcarbmetI: yes but a lot of people are scumbags and dont follow itEcarbmetI: But no, in any war in any countryEcarbmetI: you arent supposed to kill the medicFlamelessNight: I didn't know thisEcarbmetI: anyway the war is pretty much over EcarbmetI: you have five years of readjustment EcarbmetI: and settling into things because of course theres a lot of tensionEcarbmetI: (in fact the riot is a year after the war ends) EcarbmetI: but wait EcarbmetI: 5 more years is the yellow feaver epidemic :BFlamelessNight: :B christFlamelessNight: thank god for magic or this woman would have grey hairsFlamelessNight: but with the war over the kid probably gets to go homeEcarbmetI: He could but EcarbmetI: Hes been around a while hes not going to abandon all the people FlamelessNight: good kidFlamelessNight: write your momEcarbmetI: Besides hes a weirdo too hes old as sin and not married EcarbmetI: "old as sin" hes like in his early mid 20s at this pointFlamelessNight: I was about to say he's 19 that's not oldFlamelessNight: oh that's fairFlamelessNight: witchy is just gonna wave him off he starts lamenting over being unmarriedEcarbmetI: doesnt careFlamelessNight: more important things in this lifeFlamelessNight: how long until he figured out she's a witch and not just a slightly weird ladyEcarbmetI: I dont think he knows what witches are :B EcarbmetI: like thatFlamelessNight: :BFlamelessNight: just a weird lady EcarbmetI: BesidesEcarbmetI: not like "modern medicine" is that good soEcarbmetI: her shit is super cool radical 15/15 FlamelessNight: will share all her secretsFlamelessNight: tho defo gives him a sideline talk ofFlamelessNight: probably don't pull this out in front of your uh. . buddiesFlamelessNight: or other peopleEcarbmetI: what buddies hes probably living in her plantation to be honest :B FlamelessNight: well I mean :B his supiriors or whateverEcarbmetI: wars overFlamelessNight: right lawlFlamelessNight: people outside of the house thenFlamelessNight: justFlamelessNight: don'tFlamelessNight: switching back to aim?EcarbmetI: no EcarbmetI: my mouse is broken and is spazzingEcarbmetI: and the aim icon is next to this oneFlamelessNight: o that's not usefulEcarbmetI: it double clicks for some reasonEcarbmetI: so if I move the mouse slightlyEcarbmetI: it clicks bothFlamelessNight: jesusEcarbmetI: anyway shes a weirdo and hes "probably gay" EcarbmetI: (hes not gay) FlamelessNight: I think she likes the company anywayFlamelessNight: defo tells him to write his parentsFlamelessNight: or whatever family he may haveFlamelessNight: on the upside doesn't give him a hard time about not being married or dating or :B anything like thatFlamelessNight: I like to think at some point he catches her doing actual magicEcarbmetI: ProbablyFlamelessNight: not just herbal medicines and being helpfulFlamelessNight: does he get sick?EcarbmetI: from the yellow feaver?FlamelessNight: yeaEcarbmetI: hes certainly very much at risk FlamelessNight: best keep an eye on him thenEcarbmetI: he probably does to be honest EcarbmetI: doesnt mean its an auto death sentenceEcarbmetI: butFlamelessNight: it's still not a fun timeEcarbmetI: hes a bit of a clown FlamelessNight: can tell you she starts hanging up and keeping around eucaluptis and mintEcarbmetI: thats how he ended up there in the first place, most expendable EcarbmetI: but he works hard FlamelessNight: rubs lemon grass on him before he leaves the houseEcarbmetI: and probably EcarbmetI: if he did get sick wouldnt say anythingFlamelessNight: She'd be so mad :BFlamelessNight: I like that he's a bit of a clownFlamelessNight: she's not, she's a nice lady with a bit of a bleeding heart but guarded. Probably took her a bit to warm up to him EcarbmetI: look at youEcarbmetI: oh no i dont know what im doing qqq too hardFlamelessNight: :B is hardFlamelessNight: I still don't know what I'm doingEcarbmetI: you know more than I do :BFlamelessNight: I don't feel like I do lawlEcarbmetI: filling in all sorts of info :BFlamelessNight: :BFlamelessNight: they need namesFlamelessNight: fell like I'll forget this later but call her Josephine for nowEcarbmetI: his name is Charles jr EcarbmetI: so he goes by Charlie because his dad uses Charles FlamelessNight: :B I was calling him toby in my head but I like Charlie betterEcarbmetI: (time accurate and one of my defaults)FlamelessNight: It's cuteEcarbmetI: D;FlamelessNight: He's cuteFlamelessNight: is he an only childEcarbmetI: noFlamelessNight: the eldist?EcarbmetI: no :BFlamelessNight: :B does he write his parents lawlEcarbmetI: with enough uhEcarbmetI: encouragement FlamelessNight: gentle bitchingFlamelessNight: 'did you write your mom'FlamelessNight: 'I asked two days ago for you to write your parents'FlamelessNight: 'jeewiz I wish I had a mom to write too'EcarbmetI: :BFlamelessNight: 'I bet she'd love to know you're alive'EcarbmetI: hes a middle child nobody cares about himEcarbmetI: the sagaEcarbmetI: hes like 1/5 FlamelessNight: she will hound him until he does itFlamelessNight: just you knowFlamelessNight: don't tell your mom you're living with a witchFlamelessNight: and learning her bullshitFlamelessNight: Though I imagine if he prodded hard enough after catching her doing real magicFlamelessNight: she might show him some of that tooFlamelessNight: but that'll be hard :BEcarbmetI: not everyone is talentFlamelessNight: well I said show not teachEcarbmetI: sorry im like EcarbmetI: distracted by my armFlamelessNight: what's wrong with your arm?EcarbmetI: got two giant open blisters on my upper arm/shoulderFlamelessNight: D;!EcarbmetI: and I unfortunatelyEcarbmetI: dont know how to not touch itFlamelessNight: cry stopEcarbmetI: whats tyhe fun in thatFlamelessNight: gonna get an infectionEcarbmetI: oks on I cant do this anymore :BEcarbmetI: I gotta bed and work tomorrow and stop picking my armFlamelessNight: :B time for sleepEcarbmetI: in that orderFlamelessNight: yes do thisEcarbmetI: anywayEcarbmetI: help me elaborate on this mess I need something to entertain me Whispering to Stop whisper Send
