* waltzes into the room and takes a seat at the desk* Good afternoon, my name's
Annette *smiles at the new face seated nearby* *picks up a paper from on top
of the massive mess on the desk* Now, just a few questions and you get to go
on your way. Don't make this into a disagreeable experience, okay? *nods decisively*
Let's start at the beginning. What's your name? I'd appreciate your full given
name, *looks up expectantly* you know, first and last:
| *nods* Well, it's really Loren Smith. Nothing esquisette,
but that's what my parents named me, from what I know. *smiles
some* *doesn't really remember her parents, but that is
what her brother has been calling her since as long as she
can remember* *especially when he finds she has gotten into
trouble* |
*nods* Alright *scribbles the name and a few stick figures on the paper* *snatches
it out of view* Do you have a name of sorts that you'd rather be called? *to
herself* I prefer my real name, but hey, to each his own. *looks over with a
bemused smile on her face* And, how'd you get that particular nickname?:
| *smiles* People that I become aquanted with call me Tempest,
or Tempie for short. It means storm I believe. I guess I
got it from my firey spirit. *has always been able to hold
her own* *living with all guys, she has had to be able to
get a little pushy and stand up when they aren't on their
best behavor* *smirks and shifts position to get a little
more comfy* |
*smirks* Cute, real cute *snickers a little* So, how old are ya, huh? And on
what day will you be turning a another year older?:
| *blinks some* Well, I think I'm sixteen, and I was born
on December 18. Once again, I only know that because that
is what Kyle, my brother, told me. *shakes her head* I know
everything thanks to him. *blinks some* Actually, I'm surprised
he remembers. *nods and smiles more* |
*raises her eyebrows* That's a decent time of year *casts a furitive glance
at out the window* So, now where were we? *looks over the paper, now riddled
with stick figures and curly handwriting* Oh, yes, your looks. *nods* Now, don't
give me a hard time, just tell me what you look like. *puts her pen to the paper
expectantly* You know, like eye and hair colour, height, and all that other
stuff. Pretend I'm blind, okay?:
| *laughs some* Sure, whatever. Well, I'm 5'4" with
medium length, brown hair. My eyes are a brown colour. *rolls
her eyes some at herself* Yeah, I know it is kind of unoriginal
and traditional, but that is what I got. And to be honest,
*smiles* I don't mind it all that much. *pauses a moment*
How is that? *wears guys' clothes only, 'cause that's what
she grew up with, living with four guys all her life* *light
green shirt and light tan pants and brown suspenders* *well
built and pretty features* *has a horizantal scar on her
upper left arm, which she got from Nick, one of the guys
her and her brother lived with* |
*raises eyebrows* Sure, if that's what you say.*shakes head in disbelief* What's
your personality like? *looks you over* i mean, are you mean, nice, whatever?
How're you going to get along here?:
| *shrugs some* I hope I'm a good person. I think I am,
because I have usually gotten along with the guys. *shakes
her head and smiles* They always said that I am too witty
and such, and too strick. *shrugs* Someone had to be the
mother at times. *smirks* It was kind of a mutual relationship
in that house. Everyone looked up to and out for one another.
*misses it muchly* We always did have our misunderstandings
of course, like any family does. *does consider them family*
*always got into fights over little things like food and
such* *sometimes it would get out of hand and that is how
she got the scar; from a knife wound, but she always would
return the harmful "favor"* *the four of them
are really good friends and grew up together, but then she
broke Nick's heart when he said that he liked her but she
didn't like him back and so now he now holds a "loving
grudge"* *is a pretty nice person to most people* *can
have a hot temper sometimes* *can handle herself since she
has learned she has had to, so is pretty strong when need
be* |
*sighs* Got'cha, you really think that, eh? *draw a little more on the paper*
Everyone gets mad about this one, but if you give me a hard time, I will not
hesitate to hurt you. *narrows eyes* How'd you get here and what your story?
Enthrall me.:
| *pulls her legs up under her* *nods some, not reall intimidated*
*looks at her and raises and eyebrow* You want to -whole-
story, huh? *when she sees her nod she continues* Well,
when I was... maybe two or so... Kyle took me out a couple
days after my birthday to pick up Chrismas gifts for my
family. It was snowing and cold since we lived in upper
New York. Anyway, when we came back home, we had discovered
that our parents were gone. *shrugs* They must have just
picked up and left. *sighs* We don't really know why. I
mean, Kyle was only six. *looks down a moment* So, we really
had no place to go. *pauses a moment* After wandering the
streets for a little while, we happened to stumble across
a couple of guys between my brother and mines age. We quickly
became friends and they said that they knew of this place
where we could stay with them. *laughs some* It was a real
dump, but it worked. It was like this old tenement house
outside of the city. As we grew older, my brother had decided
that he had to get a job. The whole stealing for food thing
wasn't working as well anymore. I rarely saw him during
the day and hardly ever at night. So, I soon became quick
friends with Nick, Sean, and Steve, the three guys. Well,
there were fights all the time, and then Nick saying he
loved me, and well, anyway. So, then Nick started coming
to Kyle's work and causing trouble there, which caused Kyle
to get fired. Kyle decided it was better to just leave since
the friendship between Nick and him was pretty much gone.
*rolls her eyes some more* We ended up moving... here. *smiles
some* Kyle found a job a couple of towns away, and since
I can manage myself, I decided to stay here. *grins* Eventful,
huh? |
*clasps hands and grins evilly* My favorite! *giggles* So, who are the people
in your life? Family, friends *snickers* boyfriends? *looks up happily* Tell
me everything.:
| *laughs some* No, no boyfriend. *tucks a piece of hair
behind her ear* And you know about the family part. It's
only my brother as far as I am concerned. And friends? Well,
I still consider Nick, Sean and Steve friends. I don't really
hold a grudge on them. *looks down some* Sorry if I am babbling.
*smiles* |
Well, we've come to the last question. *nods* Then I can go out to the candy
shop and get myself a phosphate *looks out the window again* So, anything else
we oughta know about you?:
|
*shakes her head* I don't believe so. *doesn't smoke,
and drinks occasionally, but not an alcoholic*
