i’m  just  not ,   like ,    very  good  at  letting  people  help  me .   they  have  all  this  compassion  and  pity  and ....    you  know ,   dogs  don’t  really  have  that .

I like you but you seem very sad/lonely. It doesn't seem like you have a tight-knit group of people even though you appear to be very nice and talented. If true, I hope that changes for you.

You obviously put so much effort into your roleplaying as a whole and your writing/blogs all look so cool! I'm very intimidated to reach out because I'm newer, but I'm admiring from the sidelines!!!

" YOU SHOULD BE A LAWYER " IS THE CRAZIEST WAY TO INSULT SOMEONE . YOU'RE SAYING I'M RIGHT AND I WON THE ARGUMENT AND I'M SMARTER THAN YOU ?

arc iii : notorious defense attorney maxine mayfield .

[mhunster]

                  AFTER   HEARING   HER   VOICE,   A   BREATH   WAS   LET   LOOSE   HE   didn’t   know   he   was   holding.   She   was   alive.   She   was   awake.   Despite   hearing   everyone   confirm   it   all,   he   had   to   see   for   himself.   Eddie   was   content.   Relief   flooded   off   his   shoulders   as   he   sighed   out   through   his   nose,   “   Hey,   Red.   ”   he   greeted   again,   more   softly   than   before.   HIs   voice   was   still   strained   and   tired,   but   he   managed   for   her.                EDDIE   SHUFFLED   DEEPER   INTO   HER   ROOM,   MOVEMENTS   STIFF   AS   HE   went.   The   mention   of   being   torn   made   him   wince.   The   bite   marks,   in   which   torn   flesh   was   ripped   from   his   body,   began   to   burn.   It   felt   like   he   still   felt   all   their   little   needle   teeth   on   him   again,   “   Yeah…   yeah   I   guess   you   can   say   that,   ”   a   huffy   chuckle   passed   his   lips   as   he   now   pulled   up   a   chair   to   her   bedside,   “   I   look   like   shit   and   I   feel   like   shit,   ”   he   agreed,   “   You?   You   somehow   look   just   as   badass   as   ever,   ”   a   small   pause,   “   How   are   you   feeling?   ”

' right . ' the laugh that's huffed out is unmistakably bitter . looking badass is the least of her concerns right now , but considering she's covered nearly head - to - toe in casts , braces & bandages , max feels more pathetic than anything . for someone with such a huge personality , she feels very , very small at the moment . she can hear him step closer , but she has no gauge for where he's at : her blindness still feels like a blindfold , like the darkness will lift if she could only untie the knot . ' uh , i'm feeling more metal than ever , actually . ---- total knee and elbow replacements . i'm basically the bionic woman now . ' despite the playful words , it's obvious max is in pain . ' are they letting you out soon ? wayne's probably worried sick about you . '

[sheldoney]

she feels like it should be kind of obvious , but people can't help what freaks them out . ' her name's diana . like diana prince ? wonder woman . and yeah , she's extremely well trained . that's kind of the whole thing with guide dogs ---- they do a lot of work to make sure that they can keep their handlers safe , and part of that is being well socialized . ' a freckled hand outstretches to give the golden retriever a pat on the head . ' look . there's this place called guiding hope ---- it's a nonprofit , my aunt runs it . they spend a lot of time and effort on these little guys , and it shows . maybe you should stop by sometime . ' a brief pause before max offers something she does not usually allow . ' do you want to pet her ? she's a little slobbery sometimes but she's really sweet . and she just had a bath this morning , so your hands won't smell like dog . '

Sheldon has been afraid of dogs all of his life but something about the way the dog looks at him with her chocolate brown eyes and her --Is that a smile on her face? He feels safe. Like she won't bite him. He accepts the invitation from the woman and pats her gently on the head, then goes a bit further and starts to stroke her velvety ears before pulling away. He sniffs his hand and she was right she doesn't have that weird doggy smell that most dogs have.

"I like her name. Wonder Woman is one of my favorite superheroes." He wipes his hands off on his pants and continues to gauge the dog with curious cobalt eyes. "I could stop by sometime. Are the other dogs just as friendly?"

' see , she likes you . her tail is wagging . ' the words are encouraging , the golden retriever's tail thumping against max's leg with every swing . ' she's one of my favorites , too ! i have a bunch of her comics , my friend jane reads them to me sometimes . i'm a big DC fan . ' it was easier when she could just read them herself , but jane really goes out of her way to describe the art ---- which max appreciates . ' they are . there's this , like .... temperament test , i guess it's called ? so if a dog is too reactive or easily distracted or antisocial or whatever , the group won't take them since they won't make a very good guide . '

things that break my heart that are just normal to max:

knowing how to pick locks and forge checks and signatures

running betting pools and keeping a lockbox for all her cash

spending time in bars and around drunk people

cps stopping by + lying to them so that they leave

lying to teachers and other adults about her home life

"Is your dog trained?"

she feels like it should be kind of obvious , but people can't help what freaks them out . ' her name's diana . like diana prince ? wonder woman . and yeah , she's extremely well trained . that's kind of the whole thing with guide dogs ---- they do a lot of work to make sure that they can keep their handlers safe , and part of that is being well socialized . ' a freckled hand outstretches to give the golden retriever a pat on the head . ' look . there's this place called guiding hope ---- it's a nonprofit , my aunt runs it . they spend a lot of time and effort on these little guys , and it shows . maybe you should stop by sometime . ' a brief pause before max offers something she does not usually allow . ' do you want to pet her ? she's a little slobbery sometimes but she's really sweet . and she just had a bath this morning , so your hands won't smell like dog . '
