Annie, don’t come back      please.

[thedragonstreasure]

It's not up to you.

Bye Bo.

[dragonscorned-blog]

No. Not then either.

[thedragonstreasure]

I told you I was sorry -- I didn't - never mind. I'll see myself out. 

[dragonscorned-blog]

I can’t do this, Annie. Not here, not now. 

[thedragonstreasure]

Not tomorrow either or next week either, huh?

[dragonscorned-blog]

I’ve nev      never mind.

[thedragonstreasure]

Never what?

[dragonscorned-blog]

Annie.

[thedragonstreasure]

What?

[dragonscorned-blog]

    what?

[thedragonstreasure]

You so mad you won't even look at me?

[dragonscorned-blog]

There’s not. And the sooner you realize that      the better.

[thedragonstreasure]

You that mad at me?

[dragonscorned-blog]

That’s because there’s nothin’ else to say.

[thedragonstreasure]

Bo-- 

There's gotta' be.

[dragonscorned-blog]

You shouldn’t be here.

[thedragonstreasure]

So I've heard. S'the only thing I've heard from you.

[Looking up, Mia’s brows crease slightly at the tension she could see int he girls smile and shoulders, curious.] That’s alright, we can’t all be wild. The world would be chaos otherwise. [Wiping her hands as she finished up, Mia crossed back over the front of her car looking over the older model with care.] She’s a beauty by the way, how long ‘ave you had her?

[thedragonstreasure]

World is chaos anyway. [Or at least hers was, with a man threatening life and death at the tip of her spine, leaving her bound and gagged against any of his wishes. She was puppet, out to destroy against her will. Shaking her head gently she returns to the present, offering a small half smile at her old babe] Got her when I was sixteen from an old junk yard. Only thing I could afford. A friend did the labor for free and little by little she came back to life.

[fatesbechanged]

Fuck no. [She laughs loudly, thinking off all the times she’s spent locked up for not caring for the rules.] ‘Course it lands me in scaldin’ water too many times, but life’s short.

An’ you, you follow the rules like a little lamb or are you wild thing like me?

[thedragonstreasure]

{giving another soft laugh she shrugs, looking around the shop rather than having Mia look at her] Guess I'm a lamb. [Little did she know of the wolf beneath the disguise, or better yet, the wolf she was pretending to be. She was a lamb in wolf's clothing who was pretending to be a lamb. The thought made her stomach roll and she looked at Mia's head, her stomach sinking] Too scared to be wild. 

[fatesbechanged]

Or so they say, I’m more of a firm believer in making your fate and cosmic shit. [She cracks a grin as she moves to the outside of the mirror, drill in hand and ready to go.] 

[thedragonstreasure]

Right - right. I can see that - with you I mean. Doesn't look like you let anything tell you what to do. [Unlike her.]

[fatesbechanged]

Put us out? [Tugging on a few loose and jangled wires, snapping them back into their proper place and adding a few more fastenings for good measure.] Nah, more like puttin’ him out but he has it coming trust me. 

Karma’s a fuckin’ bitch like that.

[thedragonstreasure]

Right. Karma. [Suddenly all the cheerfullness was gone from her bones, Ellis' words ringing in her ears] 

[fatesbechanged]

Friend? Some days, today…he’s the asshole who’s getting your bill.

[thedragonstreasure]

[She blinked a little before giving a hollow laugh, wondering why the woman was being so kind] Yeah? You don't - have to do that you know. I mean, I don't want to put you guys out or anything. 

[fatesbechanged]

[Snorting, Mia only was giving her crap but was amused nonetheless by the girls sense of bashfulness.]  Well flower shop Annie, the asshole who broke your mirror, did he ‘ave some crazy mop of brown hair and an idiot smile plastered on his face?

[thedragonstreasure]

Yes! I think he's come into the shop a few times but that's certainly him. Friend of yours? 

[fatesbechanged]

If yer lookin’ for a flattery discount yer on your way…..sorry whats your name? [She didn’t look at her directly as she grabbed her tool kit, opening the passenger side door made quick work to remove the paneling of the door to access where she needed to drill in.]

[thedragonstreasure]

Wh-What? Oh gosh no I would never! [Cheeks truly colored pink now she laughed softly, hiding behind her hand as she watched the woman expertly move around her old clunker] Sorry - Annie. I own the flower shop a few streets down?

[fatesbechanged]

Yeah, yeah, save it for someone with a hero complex. [She can’t help but throw in a little wink at the girls excitement. Every little ding was a nightmare for everyone when it came to their babies. Mia was no different.] It’s an easy fix, that’s all.

[thedragonstreasure]

Ducking her head to hide the confusing combination blush of guilt and genuine contentment, she chuckled, licking her lips in an attempt to keep from smiling too much, the redhead a breath of fresh air really in comparison to her usual company.] Don't need to have a hero complex to be a hero!
