LIFE OF A LADY

Adella Victoire Marcotte, middle sister and resident of The Hollow. Half-blood witch and waitress at the Sleepy Hollow. My friends call me Ella.

Has anyone seen a black sketchbook?

[lizzie-bailey-deactivated201403]

Thank you. You’re really too kind.

It’s really not much. Just a few sketches - nothing a bit of magic can’t duplicate. 

[adella-marcotte]

I'll keep an eye out nonetheless.

"It’s mandatory? Only Gabriel Hollow would throw a party and make it mandatory. It’s when? Wait—let me get a pen.”

She wished, with all her being that she could just reach out and touch her, run her fingers through her hair…just one more time. To warn her away from Gabriel, from that party. All she wanted to do was protect her daughter, her sons, her husband. But she couldn’t. She could only watch and wait, hoping for the best, but expecting the worse.

I don’t belong here in heaven, I belong with her.

[lizzie-bailey-deactivated201403]

Hopefully they’ll change. Eventually.

I just really don’t want to imagine someone huddling over my sketchbook and laughing over it - that’d be absolutely mortifying.

[adella-marcotte]

I wouldn't hold your breath. 

I'm sure they wouldn't be laughing, more like crying because they could never hope to possess a smidgen of the talent you have.

[arabelle-bennet]

I'm just...

[arabelle-bennet]

Not unless you have all day.

[adella-marcotte]

I don't think I can spare an entire day, but I've got time?

[riley-breaux]

Just went for a walk near the edge of the wood.

It was actually really refreshing.

[adella-marcotte]

Everything alright, Ri?

[rayacorazon]

[Raya laughed softly, shaking her head as she continued to pick up quarters. She couldn’t agree more with what she was saying. Sometimes Raya wished that she could just make them all disappear into thin air.] Exactly. How many siblings do you have?

[adella-marcotte]

[Adella sighed and rolled her head to the side, as much as she loved her brothers, all the problems and work they caused her wore he out, it felt nice to have someone in the same boat to talk about it with.] Two brothers, one older, one younger. Yourself?

[lizzie-bailey-deactivated201403]

Oh no, just saying you’ll try to look for it is enough help. I haven’t been getting too many replies so any recognition is appreciated.

I know, I’m just hoping that someone… understanding will find it. Not someone - er - less than thoughtful. 

[adella-marcotte]

Sadly, there are more less than thoughtful people around here than upstanding citizens.

[asherxdavis]

Not this weekend…or half of the week if I’m being honest here.

[adella-marcotte]

You shouldn't be skipping school, it's imperative you attend.

[arabelle-bennet]

I'm just...

[arabelle-bennet]

Just frustrated.

[adella-marcotte]

Anything you care to share?

[asherxdavis]

Someone needs to throw a party or else I will.

[adella-marcotte]

Don't you have school?

[arabelle-bennet]

I'm just...

Furious!

[adella-marcotte]

Bee in your bonnet?

[violetoldfield]

I am counting down the hours until the weekend

One more day left

[adella-marcotte]

Something planned?

Mully: Please.

Adella: Please what? Keep putting up with trying to be the best friend I can be and getting nothing in return? Seriously Mull, my /brothers/ give me more respect and truth than you do.

[lizzie-bailey-deactivated201403]

Has anyone seen a black sketchbook?

[lizzie-bailey-deactivated201403]

It’s very much like a diary - I shiver just thinking of letting someone see into me like that.

Do you keep a diary? 

[adella-marcotte]

Indeed, and I have for a while now. I couldn't imagine someone seeing it either. They're such personal things, it'd be like opening yourself up for anyone and everyone to poke and prod and judge. I'm sorry, I don't suppose this is helping... at all.

[aurorawarfield]

It's not a lot I ask for

[aurorawarfield]

And most of them are the worse! They are petty and rude. 

[adella-marcotte]

And yet we're expected to curtsy and worship the ground they walk on like self styled gods. No thank you.

Mully: Ella

Mully: I love you

Mully: I swear

Adella: You know what, Mulligan? If you did, you wouldn't have to try and convince me. I would know it from your actions, and right now, your actions make you a liar.
