I'd conjure up the thought of being gone

  But I'd probably even do that wrong.

[hazel-rose-whitmore]

Im going to freeze to death!

"Are there generators or something?"

[mary-e-whittingstall]

"You'd think they would?!" Mary replied without thinking. She was fully trussed up in as many clothes as possible, and it still was barely...bearable.

[esmeralda-anderson-deactivated2]

"Why don’t we talk in English so as not to worry the nurses we’re plotting to do something bad?" Esmeralda giggled with a warm smile enjoying the chance to be around someone much like herself. There weren’t many people that enjoyed languages as much as she did. "So where’d you learn French?"

[mary-e-whittingstall]

"Good point," as usual, someone had thought of a practical issue she had not.

"Well, at school, and then I was dragged on extended holidays to Paris. Self-taught, although I had a huge head start," she summed up. Rachel had taken her even when she hadn't wanted to, and it had been easier to just go. She was once ditched in an unfamiliar suburb of Paris, seemingly simply to see if she could find her way back, and made fun of like she was overreacting when she dared to bothered by it.

Alice walked out of the bathroom and down the hall on her way back to the nurse’s station. A smile spread across her face as she heard the sound of someone singing. She leaned against the wall and watched as the girl spun around and she giggled. It was nice to see someone around here who was happy.

[mary-e-whittingstall]

Mary pretended to bow shyly and then stood against the wall, not sure what else to do. She wanted to walk away, but she also wanted to stay. Feeling the awkwardness rising, one of her random satires came to her. "That's nothing, I also have a bouncy ball," she said very quietly. ...Nope, feels stupid.

[dr-phillip-nash-deactivated2015]

"Oui," Phillip said simply, not the type to elaborate, especially when it came to someone who he didn’t know. "Mon nom est Phillip , et le vôtre?" He stared at the brunette girl for a moment, then shrugged, "I’m the medical doctor," he finished in English.

[mary-e-whittingstall]

"Je m'appelle Marie. Mary," she added quietly, feeling he was not very interested.

She shrugged. "I'm a...patient." Unfunny. Really bad. "I can' t sing."

Cringeworthy, so far.

[bonnie-is-alone]

Bonnie just kept smiling as he looked at the other girl. “I’m Bonnie,” she said as she walked a little closer to the other. She outstretched her hand, desperately trying to be more social in the hospital.

[mary-e-whittingstall]

"Mary," she replied, shaking her hand firmly and imitating what she had been taught to do, still slightly shocked in how ingrained the formality was, as she wasn't really into that. Ah, yes the beginning of the impression that you're a pompous asshole. It has begun.

[esmeralda-anderson-deactivated2]

Esmeralda smiled warmly before asking, “Allons-nous continuer à parler en français , ou allons -nous passer à l’anglais?” 

[mary-e-whittingstall]

"Ça m'est égal." she shrugged. "Although this is what my actual voice sounds like," she smiled slightly, emphasising what she called her silly posh voice. "So depends which you want to hear. I'll probably jump around anyway."

[bonnie-is-alone]

Bonnie was wandering the halls again, lost. She saw a girl spinning around and dancing and she couldn’t help but stop and admire her. This girl could find happiness in this place. Bonnie laughed as she said, “It was a nice dance.”

[mary-e-whittingstall]

Mary smiled subtly, now blushing slightly after her cheeky moment. "Thanks," she said quietly. Nothing else came to mind and her brain wouldn't connect with her mouth anyway. At the moment, that was most of the time.

[fayburton-deactivated20150531]

Alice walked out of the bathroom and down the hall on her way back to the nurse’s station. A smile spread across her face as she heard the sound of someone singing. She leaned against the wall and watched as the girl spun around and she giggled. It was nice to see someone around here who was happy.

[mary-e-whittingstall]

Mary breifly laughed herself, and then went quiet. Not sure where to look, she smiled shyly, and looked around. Nothing came to mind, as usual,  so she hummed quietly.

[esmeralda-anderson-deactivated2]

Esmeralda couldn’t help but attracted to the sound of someone singing French. As far as she knew, she was one of the few people in the facility that could speak another language. It was nice to find someone much like herself. She leaned on the wall and watched Mary for a little while before clapping. ” Très bien! Très bien! Vous chantez était belle ! “

[mary-e-whittingstall]

Still a little embarrassed at not noticing she was being watched, and not quite sure whether it was genuine or mocking. She should know, she thought, but, no. 

"Merci beaucoup," she said very quietly, returning from her brief cheeky moment.

[dr-phillip-nash-deactivated2015]

 Phillip couldn’t help but watch the girl dance, though it was a bit strange. He was learning that everyone seemed a bit strange here, himself included. As the young woman noticed him and shrugged, the doctor spoke up. “Vous avez une belle voix”

[mary-e-whittingstall]

"Merci beaucoup," she said quietly. She decided to go with that she wasn't being patronised. She smiled silently. "Parlez-vous français?" she said almost to her herself.

[mary-e-whittingstall]

You are the one for me For me, for me, formidable But how can you see me, See me, see me, si minable Je ferais mieux d’aller choisir mon vocabulaire Pour te plaire Dans la langue de Molière

Mary began to sing this under her breath, complete with a dance that mostly consisted of spinning, before she noticed someone was watching her. Not knowing how to respond, she simply shrugged at them. Nice job with the "I'm not a weirdo".

[schizo-genevieve-blog-blog]

Im eighteen.

"Isn’t being eighteen supposed to feel different or something?"

[mary-e-whittingstall]

It is if you're not aware of the subjective perception in advance.

I think it's a myth.

[mary-e-whittingstall]

[fayburton-deactivated20150531]

*sitting my the window on the second floor trying not to be seen by the other staff members* 

[mary-e-whittingstall]

Seeing another person smoking, Mary took the opportunity to also smoke the cigarette she had kept on her so if they searched her room (unless they came in the middle of the night...fair play).

She stood close enough to use the window to use it for aeration, but making sure there was a gap, only aware afterwards it was an awkward arrangement, but shook her head, and pretended to look brooding rather than awkward.

You are the one for me For me, for me, formidable But how can you see me, See me, see me, si minable Je ferais mieux d'aller choisir mon vocabulaire Pour te plaire Dans la langue de Molière

Mary began to sing this under her breath, complete with a dance that mostly consisted of spinning, before she noticed someone was watching her. Not knowing how to respond, she simply shrugged at them.

[cicero-cortez]

Cicero sighed to herself as she strolled through the garden. There was really nothing else to do, and honestly, she missed causing trouble-the only reason she’d been sort of behaving herself lately was because of Amelia’s threat to get her moved to another facility, or sent home. Neither of those options appealed to her, so between that, and the worse and worse depression she’d been suffering lately, she hadn’t gotten out of her room much, but now, here she was, taking a walk in the garden, and staring bitterly around at the roses, wishing she could set them on fire.

That was when something hit her in the leg, and she turned, her lip curling angry, as she took in the ball and the girl. “What the hell is your problem, you pale freak?!”, she snapped rudely, reaching down to pick up the ball, squeezing it tightly in her fist.

[mary-e-whittingstall]

Mary jumped. She was talking to her, right? She had heard it all before. It frightened her, but she pretended it didn't. She could either look weak and be barrelled against, or she could walk away. And clearly, she was going to lose and be a pig for the slaughter if she used any logic or wordy arguments, or emotional argument. It was a lose-lose. Great. She was supposed to be having her stress reduced here.  

She shrugged, as if to say, keep it then. She could always ask someone to send her a new one, even though she was a bit attached to it, it wasn't worth it. 

She turned to walk away, knowing bullies hated that. Maybe it wouldn't end well. But she wasn't going to fight over a fucking ball with a stranger who was clearly ready to fight with any situation she came across. 

She wondered what she would say next, probably about the fact she wasn't speaking. Pale freak? She thought, in the moment, where is the insult? That's baby talk compared with the stuff she'd come up with herself, never mind others had come up with. She doubted this person could even come close to Rachel. She didn't know her, she would be making guesses at insults.
