The Red Queen

"You wanna know how I got these scars?” “My skin has turned to porcelain, to ivory, to steel.” ”I am the Queen now.”

[goask-ari]

You’re being too loud…

[redforwrath]

"Sorry?

         I just sneezed. You should really be saying something else right now."

[sophie-prescott-deactivated2014]

The whole package. What about you?

[redforwrath]

The disorders I first had when I arrived -- well, the doctors are beginning to have second thoughts.

                 Apparently I don’t have multiple personalities or whatever.

                                  -- -- I’m just plain ole sociopathic me.

[sophie-prescott-deactivated2014]

Schizophrenia, Insomnia, Night Terrors and Panic Attacks.

[redforwrath]

The whole package, huh? Sounds like you’re a class A loonie.

                 But don’t worry -- --  we all are.

         You’ll fit in nicely.

[sophie-prescott-deactivated2014]

I’m okay with Bambi.

[redforwrath]

So what’s your damage, Bambi?

                  Let me guess -- drug addition? No. . .

                          Schizophrenia?

                  How about suicidal?

[sophie-prescott-deactivated2014]

I’m Ace but someone nicknamed me Bambi.

[redforwrath]

[she snorts]  Bambi? It’s fitting, I suppose, with your coloring.

                          It could be much, much worse.

[sophie-prescott-deactivated2014]

Does me have a name?

[redforwrath]

Allison.

            But I answer to princess or. . .

                          --even queen.

[sophie-prescott-deactivated2014]

Hello…?

[redforwrath]

Just me.

[yevgenygallavich]

Yea.. I guess that.. goes for most people..

[redforwrath]

Exactly. Nothing monumental about not wanting to be here.

It's a mutually shared wish between us all.

[yevgenygallavich]

I.. I guess.

[redforwrath]

Well, I can honestly say I agree with you. There's about a thousand things I'd rather be doing.

[yevgenygallavich]

No always have.

[redforwrath]

Oh. Just thought you'd share with the rest of the class then?

[yevgenygallavich]

I fucking hate this place..

[redforwrath]

Just now realized that?

[amelia-ofvoices]

"Of course. I’m Amelia."

[redforwrath]

"I'm-- I'm Allison. I can't remember how long I've been here..."

[amelia-ofvoices]

"Did he see you? If he didn’t than you’re safe. There’s no way he could ever suspect you."

[redforwrath]

"I guess that's true... Would you go with me? It's just... I need the support."

[amelia-ofvoices]

"Well, have you said anything to any of the doctors or staff?"

[redforwrath]

"I'm too scared to... he'll do something to me."

[amelia-ofvoices]

"N- No, I’m sorry. I didn’t see that."

"Are you okay? Did he hurt you?"

[redforwrath]

"Oh..." Allison ran a hand through her hair shakily as if to try and compose herself. "He didn't. But I've run into him a few times. Sure is mean..."

[amelia-ofvoices]

"See what?"

[redforwrath]

"That guard was... He wasn't being good to the patient." The lies fell easily from her lips, as did the mask of panic fit onto her features.

[redforwrath]

"I didn't see that!"
