(cypress kind of shuffles in to the taxidermy shop. she just kind of stands there awkwardly for a sec)

um... hello? anyone here?

@cypress-in-the-woods

(ooc: i dont think she knows lethe runs the shop yet??? i don't know what is even up with the upp i just want to play touys)

"give me one second, be right with ya." (lethe calls from a backroom, shuffling out a few seconds later and setting a few things down on various shelves, not really looking at cypress.)

"how can i help you?"

cypress-in-the-woods

i was just- wait... lethe?? lethe dubois???

letheliketheriver

theee one and only. how can i- oh. hey cypress. thought you moved out?

cypress-in-the-woods

i fuckin' wish... i mean i did for a bit, just... shit happened or whatever. anyways what about you? i can't say i get out... at all... but i guess i just assumed you would've moved out of deadwood too.

letheliketheriver

(lethe snorts.) oh yeah, with all my prospects and college applications. i was surely out of here.

nah. stuck around. takes a lot to get out of this godsforsaken town, y'know? i just don't got what it takes.

cypress-in-the-woods

well, can't say it wasn't nice to have a fresh start. even if it was short. deadwood always seems to draw you right back, though...

...

so, taxidermy? is this your shop?

letheliketheriver

yyyyyyyup. not exactly lucrative, but. well. i would say it pays the bills but my dad pays the bills in exchange for me not getting involved with his new life so. it pays for like, my groceries.

just found this and now i’m googling self lobotomy

of course I have a house-well apartment. and it's not really mine, but that's not important. why? did you think I was homeless or something?? that's kinda rude. and im not a kid either - why do people always think that? i may be short, but im not that short.

how old are you? if you're going to ask me about my age, then i think i deserve to know yours.

-🪶

(ooc: maxie gets called a kid a Lot and it really gets on their nerves so that's why she's being kinda rude rn lol. they get looked down on a lot so her first reaction to anything like that is..not super nice)

well you came barelling into my house with no context. i want sure of your living situation.

i am 21. i can legally have alcohol, and all that.

#just role(play) with it #sent down the river

look- i know what im doing. im not some kid trying to prove a point or something, i-this is what I'm supposed to do. what i want to do. i mean, it would be nice to have someone to help me out, but I'm working with what I've got.

oh shoot - i just realized. i never told you my name!

(she holds their hand out to you)

name's maxine, but if I had friends, they'd call me maxie. nice to meet you. sorry for hiding - I mean using your table as..cover. i wasn't hiding, it was a tactical retreat to confuse the enemy! or something like that.

-🪶

....riiiight. i'm lethe. if i had friends they'd call me lethe. (they shake her hand gently.) d'you have a house or somewhere to get back to? or like, parents or somethin? how old are you?

#just role(play) with it #sent down the river #ik shes 19 but lethe thinks theyre a teenager

i know, it's just.. this is something I've wanted to do like, my whole life.

(they look away from you for a moment.)

ive seen firsthand what these villains can do..and heroes are really the only people who can really...do anything about them. i know the police and firefighters and stuff help out, but.. they can't..get close to them. y'know?

-🪶

i get that, but- heroes got a whole team of healers behind 'em, hon. y'ain't got nothin like that, judgin by the way you were divin under my table and prayin nobody noticed you.

i ain't gonna make y'stop, i don't even know you, but i ain't gonna encourage this. y'gotta be safe, hon.

#just role(play) with it #sent down the river #her accent comes out more when they're nervous or trying to comfort someone

uhhhh...

(before you can even try to reach towards their legs, she hops off of the table.)

look don't tell anyone, but I'm not really a hero, like I'm not associated with y'know, the big guys. the prime force and whatever. it would be nice to be an official hero, but apparently they don't accept people with stuff like.. this.

(they gesture towards their prosthetics.)

they don't think I'm good enough. so instead, I kinda just. do hero stuff on my own? i know it's not really allowed but, it's the only way I can really feel like I'm actually helping people, y'know?

-🪶

(ooc: uhhh I thought I would clarify, they're not a child. i haven't decided their actual age, but I think it's around 19ish. so not a kid.)

...right. you realize you don't have to be a hero to help people right?
