The Courtyard

It is nothing, you simply remind me of someone.
Another time perhaps-
If you will excuse me.
-Gets up and touches her shoulder lightly-
-Goes into the house-

*has the urge to shiver slightly but doesn't*

Perhaps.

*looks into forest. deep in thought*

[[ double post. I know. Sorry. ]]

*stands up abruptly*

Get out of my head!

*runs into the forest to get away for a few hours*

*opens the gate and walks into the courtyard*
*closes gate and turns to face door*
I'm not so sure I wanna go in there.

*walks over to bench*
*curls up*
*thinks*
And when my head is finally my own..
*sighs*

*falls asleep*

*wakes up shivering*
It's so damn cold out here!
*sits up and rubs arms*
But I don't want to go back inside..

*gets up and walks around courtyard aimlessly*
*sits on swing*
*puts chin in hands*

*gets up*
*pulls house-coat tighter*
*walks to workshop*

*sneeks out of the kitchen when the fighting began*
Not my problem in the lest.
Nope.
Yet I know how she feels. Brothers can be pains.
*raine sits down under a tree*
*she listens to the bluebird in the tree*

*she walks out of the kitchen*
*a bird lands on the ground in front of her*
You bored to?
*bird tweets*
Yeah me too.

*comes back in from mindless wandering*
Ahh, so many projects flying theough my head at once!
I wonder where Kale is? He could help...
*seaches for Kale's mind, and finds it*
*facesmack*
I'll... I'll... I'll leave it for later.
THE BURN!
*sits under a tree, distracting herself*

*draws in th dirt with a stick*
*the shape of a butterfly comes into view*
I never saw another butterfly
*old memories come back*
*bird tweets from tree. She reads it's thoughts*
No it wasn't easy. Nothing was in that time.

*laying down on the courtyard wall*
*thinks*
I never thought I'd miss working for my uncle.
I just wish I had something to do!
I'm not doing anything for my family.
Jumpy's doing all the damn work.
I haven't had a job in ten months--eleven, who KNOWS?!
*shoves hands into hair*
God, I just feel so RESTRICTED!
Ever since I got married--
*sighs*
I shouldn't think like that.
Jumpy's my wife.
I have a son to worry about, not my own childish ambitions.

*comes outside, looking*
Kale? KAAAAAAAALEEEEEEEEEE!
WHere is he? I have some burning questions to ask about the probablity of building force field doors!!!
*runs around searching*

*glances down at Lidia*
What the hell?
*aloud*
I saw him go into the workshop earlier, Lidia.
*lays back down*

*thinks*
I should check up on Jumpy and Dante.
*hops off wall and goes inside*

I heard that potty mouth, Mr. Moretti.
*looks in Workshop... *
Not there anymore, obviously.*peeks in the window of the parlor*
AGH! How does everyone slip around me?!?!
Now he's in the parlor, but at least everyone's happy tonight.
*runs inside*

*comes outside and leans against the wall next to the gate*
*looks up at the camera*
*waves then goes back to looking out*
*a man walks up holidng a letter*

-man-
Madame Adair?

Oui. I'm here.

-man-
I have a letter from Paris. I'm not sure from who.

Thank you Monsuir.

*tha man leaves as quickly as he came*
*she opens the letter reading the words from a unknown person.*

*she reads the letter over again*
*she stis down on the ground and leans against wall*
Who are you?
*sits and reads the lines over again*

*walks outside and sits down on a bench*

*lays across the bench closes eyes*

*thinks until slowly falling asleep*

*sits up after laying awake for an unknown amount of time*
*stretches out kinks and cracks*
*stands up and walks inside quickly*

*thinks*
You would think people would realize we're all vampires in this house..
:/

*comes outside*
I'm bored.
*sits down in grass*

*comes around from the backyard, Pandora on hip*
*hums a random tune*
*sets Pandora down, spreads out a blanket and sits, watching Pandora*

Oh, Dora, you're getting bigger everyday!

-walks to edge of treeline-
-stops, grips bow tighter-
-looks behind before continuing on-
-addresses woman sitting on the ground-

Excuse me madame.

*looks up at voice*
*stands, walking in front of Pandora*

*narrows eyes a bit*
Yes? May I help you?

I have been wandering these forests for days.
It seems I have become lost in a area I do not recgonize.
Would it be a lot to ask where this house is located?

-puts bow over head-
(The string is across his chest)
