Dream The Dreams that wake the world.

This is a OC RP blog for John and Jessie Harper. At the moment I'm only RPing with Jessie as I'm just starting up, But John should open in the near future. All art is my own unless stated otherwise!

99 bottles of beer on the wall~ 99 bottles of beer~ If one of those bottles should happen to fall~ Then 98 bottles of beer on—huh?

The question rattled them out of their stupor. That’s the problem with waiting; nobody minds their business.

“Oh, uh. Not today, nah.” I mean, probably not. After a half second’s pause, they added, “Yeah, you got marked absent!”

They smirked at their own witty comeback. That’ll show her!

She paused, face open as she processed the comeback. Suddenly, a smile cracked across her face and she looked down, shaking her head lightly. She had to admit, that was kind of funny, in the way middle schoolers who try too hard to be funny tended to be. She checked the watch she wasn’t wearing, and made a face in mock surprise. 

“Oh no, Did I really sleep in that long? Ms. Lee’s gonna give me detention for sure!” That name was her fourth grade teacher, not a middle school one, but it got the point across. 

This kid probably should be in school right now. She wasn’t going to say anything, because they didn’t come here for her to preach at them, but she hoped they didn’t make a habit of ditching.

Jessie was feeling adventurous today. She had the time between classes and a bit of extra money to spend, so she took the fifteen minute walk to the burger place around down the street to buy herself lunch. She didn’t feel like waiting around there, so she sipped on her milkshake as she walked. A few minutes into her walk back, she spotted a kid, couldn’t be more than 12, leaning up against a brick wall. She— 

Oh, there it was, she accidentally made eye contact with them. She’s gotta do something now, or it’ll be awkward. She smiled at them instinctively, but then seemed to remember the time. It wasn’t far past one, was it? Shouldn’t they have school? She could just leave it at the smile and move on, but she was in a good mood today, and curious. 

“The middle school have a minimum day or something today?”

You get a +1 to your askbox! [hey why is ur hair up all the time?]

“Honestly, long hair is such a pain to deal with, I’d much rather have it up and out of my face than in my eyes all the time. And ponytails are simple and require like no effort in the morning whatsoever, so bonus.”

“But I still keep it long cause, you know what, I like braiding it, and if I want to be fancy and wear it down one day, I can.”

How'd you get so smart? Are you like a prodigy with private tutors or what?

“I’m not a prodigy or anything special like that... math and computers just come easy to me. Everyone has those subjects they’re just good at, don’t they? Maybe for you it’s english, or biology, or art, or something. I never had any private tutors or anything, I guess I just studied a lot and worked for it.”

"Uhm, excuse me? Are you a nice person?"

“I try to be! If I see no reason not to be, that’s plenty of reason to be! Or something. If that made any sense.” She pauses a moment, collecting her thoughts to be at least a little bit more coherent before concluding with, “Yea, I like to think so.”

Hey, Jess. How good are you at a rubiks cube?

“I used to love puzzling at those things, I could sit there forever trying to solve it. Once I learned there was a pattern I spent the next like week straight trying to get familiar with it. I used to be pretty quick at them, but I haven’t picked one up in ages, so if you gave me one right now, it might take a bit for me to get back into it. But you know what, I really should pick that up again!”

A New Face In Town

Jessie smiled, stuffing her hands into her pockets and standing up straighter. “So, what’s there to do around here? I’ve heard good things about this place, but hearing good things doesn’t get you that far when you don’t know where to do them.”

And... there.

Would you look at that! The blog’s complete enough to actually get something started. I’ve been excited about this for a while.
