Mary Towner

Hi, I'm Mary Towner. I'm twenty-one and I'm a photographer.

[goode-ghost]

I’m okay *looks at her hand, shaking his head a little* it’s okay. I’ve got it *says starting to stand* thank you though

[marytowner]

Good. *blinks when he refuses her hand* Oh. No problem. So do you live here, or are you just visiting?

[peterxfranklin]

I’m trying to be happy today. The drink is helping some. 

[marytowner]

That's good. You should be happy. Everything is better that way.

[goode-ghost]

*walking and not paying attention, accidentally bumps into the person in front of him, sending him onto his behind*

Oh, I’m sorr-sorry. I didn’t - I wasn’t paying attention

[marytowner]

Don't worry, it's okay. I'm okay. Are you okay? *holds out a hand to help him up*

[hardly-hadley]

Goddamn bastard

[marytowner]

Are you okay? What's wrong? Who's a bastard?

[larasimsrott]

Oh, wow!

[larasimsrott]

Yeah, I know! Everything’s so, like… old! But not in like a dusty way, more like a charming way.

[marytowner]

Exactly. It's so cute here, I love it.

[lovelymadiwhite-deactivated2015]

Wait what?

[lovelymadiwhite-deactivated2015]

Uhm..why?

[marytowner]

Because I like taking pictures. I'm a photographer. I can give the photo to you, if you would be more comfortable, because it's more about taking the picture than keeping it.

[lovelymadiwhite-deactivated2015]

Wait what?

Sorry. I wasn’t really listening.

[marytowner]

It's okay. I asked if I could take your picture. Is that okay?

[elainexlaw-blog]

Yeah, so you are stuck too then. Yeah I’m a doctor, and I love helping people. I think it what I was born to do. It sucks that I can’t do it, and I can’t even leave to go somewhere else and help others.

[marytowner]

That's okay, I like it here. So you always knew you wanted to be a doctor? That's so cool. It must've been nice knowing that in school and stuff, when they expect you to know already, even though most people don't yet. Or I didn't, anyway. But I should've, because I'm a photographer and I've been doing that for pretty much my whole life anyway. But back to you: don't worry, I'm sure they'll let you leave soon. Your job is too important.

[chris-wolfe-blog]

And so are about a thousand or so other people.

Dirty and hot; therefore sweaty and uncomfortable. A job’s a job though.

[marytowner]

So you don't like it? Is there something else you'd rather be doing?

[larasimsrott]

Oh, wow!

This is the cutest little cafe I’ve ever been in. It’s so quaint! 

[marytowner]

I know. right? The entire town is like that. Isn't it great?

[elainexlaw-blog]

After the earthquake I came to help anyone who might have been injured. But oddly enough…no one was.

[marytowner]

Oh, yeah, that is odd. That's actually why I came. I was curious. So are you a doctor? Or do you just like to help people?

[chris-wolfe-blog]

Really? It’s pretty normal sounding to me. 

That’s uh cool I guess. Not much much into visual documenting myself but I see it’s benefits. Mechanic.

[marytowner]

Well, yeah, of course it is to you. You're used to it. 

Cool. So what's it like, being a mechanic?

[elainexlaw-blog]

Because it isn’t my home and they refuse to let me leave.

[marytowner]

Well, that's not very nice of them. But if you don't want to be here, why did you come?

[elainexlaw-blog]

It is funny, the more I’m here the more I hate this place. You’d think I’d be used to it by now.

[marytowner]

Why would you hate it here? It's so cute. 

[chris-wolfe-blog]

Landon. It’s uh, nice to meet you, Mary. I’m assuming you’re a photographer? Human’s of New York style?

[marytowner]

Whoa, that's a cool name. Yeah, I'm a photographer. I do weddings and parties and stuff professionally, but sometimes I like to just go out and take pictures of whatever I feel like. What do you do?

[ruby-greengrass]

I’d rather not. 

[marytowner]

Why not? Are you okay?

[chris-wolfe-blog]

I’m sorry I’m not so inclined to smile for random strangers who assault me with their camera. 

[marytowner]

Oh, right, sorry. Hi, I'm Mary Towner. What's your name?
