Some new headshots of Callie Haverda, where she looks convincingly like Eric and Donna's potential spawn.
She has some major Sadie Calvano vibes (far right, obviously), too. Sadie played Violet in the show Mom, and is my favorite default non-redhead E/D daughter faceclaim, and they could totally pass as sisters.
#that 70s show#that 90s show#eric and donna#eric forman#donna pinciotti#i hope her hair is styled this way in the show tbh#leia forman#but why does she have to be named leia damn it#like change her name and change eric's profession and i'd be about 80% more satisfied with ED's ending#the other 20% would be to make her around four to five yrs younger#still not canon to me tho#my verse be canon

『LUKAS GAGE ❙ CISMALE』 ⟿ looks like MADDOX DISCANIO is here for JUNIOR year as a PSYCHOLOGY student. HE IS 23 years old & known to be AMBITIOUS, CARING, ANXIOUS & OVERBEARING. They’re living in MORIS, so if you’re there, watch out for them. ⬳ mack. 20. est. she/her.
boink! maddox is easily one of my favorite and earliest muses ( i've been playing him on & off for abt 5 yrs now ). pls love him. tw for adoption, neglect, abuse, alcohol, illness, hearing loss (???), corrupt government systems.
born as maddox atkins in cincinnati to a mom who was a addict during day and bar tender by night, she had three sons ( twins and an older sib ! ) who she didn’t really know what to do with. in her defense, she was still a kid herself, barely 18 after his brother was born and the twins came along five or so years later.
maddox has never met his father and frankly, hes not even sure where to start. there’s no name on the certificate, and his brother was too young to remember any names or faces.
went home despite doctor suggestions ; rattle in his tiny baby lungs, underweight but not by a scary margin. she took the twins home because she didn’t have a babysitting for his brother, and didn’t want to leave him alone for too long by himself.
he was a pretty chill and easy baby —— kind of an omen for how he is now, really. didn’t cry or make much of a fuss. half the time his mom didn’t pay him any attention anyways, but she liked the quiet he provided late at night. it seemed baby maddox preferred sleep than crying his little heart out.
his mom, angela, didn’t want kids – but these 3 kids were depending on her now and she wasn’t even sure how to start the whole foster care thing. instead, she really left them to their own devices – maddox’s brother was the main care taker to his younger siblings. it was rough and things were hard. kindergarten for the older wasn’t even a thought – all he learned was from the tv. eventually, angela had gotten a more stable job during the day, dropping of the oldest off at school while she took the twins to the cheapest daycare she could afford since she hadn’t enrolled him in preschool yet.
illness tw / this was where he had contracted bacterial meningitis – age four. before that came a common old, from being around other kids and his mother had ignored it. luckily, his day care workers had not — maddox was taken to the hospital after it had gotten worse under their care and he had guardian angels looking out for him that day bc had they not he probably wouldn’t be alive.
a consequence of having this disease is his mild-moderate hearing loss — moderate in the right, mild in the left.
all 3 kids were taken out of angela’s home and placed into foster care after a well fare check, finding things to be out of place and unkept. it was probably for the best.
when he was five, maddox was placed and then adopted by the discanio family – they already had three kids, and maddox fit right in with their perfect image. it wouldn’t be until he grew up later that they’d realize just how wrong they were about that.
elaine was a realtor and lionel was a police chief - before that he was a general in the military. what his kids don’t know was that he was removed with a bad condunct discharge due to previous outlandish conduct during his time serving.
now - the only reason he was allowed a position on the police force, even more so a high level position, is because the department was already corrupt. filled with evil people who abused their power, and lived by their own inhibitions rather than helping people. it was an open secret in their shitty little town. lionel was definitely the type to take the kiddos on family shooting range days as ‘family bonding’ . just discanio tings
abuse tw / lionel is not a nice man. often times, maddox would have to stand up for his adoptive mother in arguments, which often turned physical. the man scared the shit out of him — and for good reason.
it was only a matter of time before people in their small town began to notice the lack of care and respect when it came to their department. what was most shocking, though, was that members of said force were helping local gangs ( and some in other cities ) were exchanging information for illegal firearms. one of this people? ding ding ding. lionel discanio.
there’s a trial going on now - but due to the fact that it’s long going and that maddox still isn’t sure exactly how many people are involved in this whole operation and that there’s new evidence of things happening such as fraud and links to murders with said weapons - it’s literally going to take forever.
eventually, his dad got bing bon boomed into jail — but maddox still is on edge about it.
at radcliffe, he’s a psychology major. so he can deflect in class<3
other stuff !!!
despite his hearing impairments, he never shuts the fuck up — he’s also fluent in asl, but for the most part he settles in just fine with verbal speech thanks to his hearing aids – just make sure he’s looking at you just in case. deffo has a potty mouth – not sorry ‘bout it either.
very flighty.
alcohol tw // has been using alcohol to self medicate since later high school — teenage rebellion and all that. it’s definitely carried over into college.
the type to be pessimistic & optimistic at the same damn time.
has a crippling fear of abandonment<3
bi baby!!!
maddox.

LIANA LIBERATO / CIS FEMALE — don’t look now, but is that saige beaumont i see? the 21 year old criminal psychology / linguistics student is in their sophomore year and she is a rochester alum. i hear they can be blithe, energetic, evasive and irrational, so maybe keep that in mind. i bet she will make a name for themselves living in murphy’s beach homes.

TW DRUG USE, ALCOHOLISM, IMPLIED ABUSE, ADDICTION, HIT & RUN.
a e s t h e t i c s
stick n’ pokes at 2am – when your drunk and giggling too much in between purposeful stabs, avoiding the cracks in the sidewalk because they’re bad luck and they’ll break your mother’s back – even if your mother doesn’t love you, because you love her, the familiar riff in an old song – one that’s got you strumming along silently; there is no guitar, only empty air lit by the christmas lights you haven’t taken down. it’s may. swallowing down shots, and by default, swallowing down problems. laughing quick, easily, constantly. skinned knees from skateboarding, despite being rubbish at it. wishes on eyelashes stuck to your cheekbones, glitter sticking, running into the ocean at sunrise; feeling at home. excuses, and the many forms they come in. telling people you love them through hand squeezes and fresh muffins, sideways glances and soft, eager grins.

biography !!
the fallible daughter of two very infallible people: robert beaumont, US lieutenant general, and manon levesque, world renown fashion designer. both calculating, cold, and purposeful.
saige never believed she was created out of love. it was an action with a purpose, intentions to create the perfect child. the hybrid of both military genius and fashion extraordinaire, molded to their will.
it took them no more than six months after her birth for her parents to up and move, thus beginning the cycle of packing and unpacking, flying and driving, state-to-state and country-to-country. the longest saige had ever stayed in one place was two years.
kept on a short leash, homeschooled, and learning skills she had no interest in – she was more like a pet, a project, than a child. the world moved all around her, but she felt restrictively tethered to her parents.
she had always felt this way. a bird in a cage of thorns.
it was hard to keep and maintain friends – saige would be there one day, and gone the next. a ghost, a very visible ghost. even so, she tried her hardest.
running from bodyguards (nannies, in a sense. her father is a paranoid man) into festival crowds and climbing out of windows in the dark of night to swim in lakes with locals she’d meet only a few hours earlier – she absorbed as much of what she could get; this intense, undying love for a world she had always craved to see.
it was the start of something near dangerous – a phase that seemed to never end, rebellion coursing through her veins. a wild child in the making, unknowing of limits. the bad sort of crowd was the crowd she found herself landing, more often than not – introducing the sheltered girl to a world she hadn’t quite known existed
she ran away, briefly, at age fifteen with a man three years older than her – which nearly ended up in a tabloid magazine if it hadn’t been for her parents’ money. though the guilt of her parents’ disappointed weighed on her, the thrill fueled something much worse
from that point on, she became a problem child. from public intoxication to vandalism – it was clear their daughter was unraveling and nothing could contain her.
boarding school was a small attempt to stop it – she got expelled.
she hadn’t intended to go to university, either – but, by some chance – and after a mysterious year-long disappearance from public eye during her eighteenth year of life, next thing she knew, she was a student at lockwood university.
she was involved in a getaway chase from an armed robbery at a bank which then turned into a hit-and-run in washington when she was on the brink of turning eighteen. it was a situation she had no control over, not knowing her role in the scheme until it was too late to turn back. the victim survived but saige’s family has been paying the medical fees since then. her parents haven’t spoken to her since.
ever since the accident, saige has avoided causing too much trouble - generally staying out of headlines and tabloids, partially in fear of her parents finally cutting ties, and partially in fear of doing something that’ll cost another person their life.
personality !!
bubbly. so fucking bubbly. she’s got so much fucking energy on her – she goes running every morning and every night and swims like every afternoon and she’s n e v e r tired ?? the personality of a coke bottle shaken up but like if the bottle could laugh.
tries her hardest to be the Happy Fun friend, y’know, the one who can hook you up w/ some sicccc shit b/c she befriended/possibly slept with her drug dealer and now she gets discounts.
like, generally, comes off as very confident of herself and fearless and, like, yes–reckless, but like a fun reckless, y’know ??
talks a l o t, could ramble for days, hand gestures and all.
if she wants to do something, she will do it and there’s not much you can do to stop her tbh. she’s very easy-going, very go-go-go, very…mischievous, y’know? even if she’s trying to do something stupid you kinda just have to let her do it or otherwise she’ll mope for three hours and pout at you and you’ll feel ?? this weird sense of guilt ?? which isn’t the Best thing but she’s not the best person either so dfghjh
a vegetarian !! meat makes her sick, like, physically.
uuuhh her vocabulary consists of a lot of ‘likes’ and ‘ums’ and ‘y’knows’, y’know ??
i am like 99% sure she’s got adhd but she’s never been diagnosed with it b/c her parents suck with that stuff. her parents sort of suck in general.
like…she’s currently not on speaking terms with them. she’s not disowned…like, yet, but they haven’t said more than like five words to each other since saige was eighteen and it k i l l s her but they also send her a shit ton of money every month so.
owns like…four cars…..she has them all on campus…..she prolly isn’t suppose to…but she does…one of them’s a real sleek sports car, one is a jacked up pick-up truck that’s decked out in like LED lights n shit, one is the same exact fucking car from the princess diaries b/c saige is obsessed w/ the movie. the other is like. a mini cooper probably.
a photographer, her walls are covered in photographs and art and taped-down plants and in general her room is very ?? cluttered ?? like it’s very home-y but god. she’s a mess. clothes everywhere. she’s probably got a pile of instruments and other miscellaneous hobbies on a chair in the corner that she hasn’t touched in a while
speaking of !! she has a bunch of random, like, skills ?? like knitting and sewing and cooking and three different forms of ballroom dancing, and she can definitely work a gun and a car engine except she goes thru interests so rapidly and is disinterested in most of the other ones b/c her parents forced like half of them onto her.
she plays bass guitar. she loves her bass guitar. she knows other instruments but the only ones she’ll really fidget with are her bass guitar and like, her violin. everything else she’s like ~okay~ at
got really obsessed with languages at a young age and started learning them ?? her mother is like. super french, like genuinely from france, so she already grew up speaking both english and french but she’s learnt others for the hell of it and she’s still learning like three other at the same time which is a MESS but she’s a mess so like can u blame her sdfghj
but like i said, she’s v e r y reckless. very much a party girl. she uses like…quite a few drugs, both socially and alone and frankly – she’s rarely sober.
a budding alcoholic because she’s convinced that without it she’ll be Miserable and Horrible to everybody because she’s a Horrible, Awful person who is the absolute Worse and if drinking vodka mixed in with 23 crystal lite packets helps with not thinking like that then she’ll do it no questions asked
its a problem she’s been developing since she was younger, only amplified by … the situation, that happened when she was eighteen.
is essentially wearing this mask of confidence and giddiness and flirtatiousness b/c she doesnt want people to think she’s doing Not Okay.
she loves so much. she loves everything, everybody. falls in love like five times a day but nothing really sticks to her either. if ur a shitty person/come off as an asshole then she’ll be more likely to be attracted to her b/c shes Always been like this. finds them super interesting which is ?? questionable ?? sometimes i want to just. knock some sense into her but y’know what…it’s fine we’re Fine
she gets around p frequently but is also the type of person who’ll like, try n maintain a positive, good friendship with whoever she sleeps with b/c the idea of having regrettable encounters is smth that Bothers her and she just pretty much refuses.
it’s honestly a bit of a problem ?? she blurs the lines between friendship and Something, Anything More too often and with too many people b/c she just. wants to be loved. but there is never enough !
she does stick n pokes !! a whole bunch !! let her give you one !! she can’t draw for shit but i mean, who cares, right ??
uuuhh her mom sends her like…prototypes of things she designs n shit that isn’t out yet and saige 100% always gives it away or it sits in her closet and essentially that is her go-to gift for birthdays or christmas or whenever she feels like it
there’s literally sm i could say about her but i’ll stop Here b/c it’s getting too long sksksksk
wanted connections !!
give me. a best friend. just somebody who sticks by her side even though she’s a Mess
like, a ride or die ?? is that the same as a best friend ?? idc i want both :)
and just in general, like, people she’s p close to ?? she’s really friendly and is the kind of girl who’d be really popular in high school but doesn’t care abt popularity n talks to literally Everybody like she’s known them all her life.
ESP if ur muse is a lil grumpier !! she will fuck their shit up, but like, in a friendship way.
party pals, where they don’t talk that much outside of parties but inside them ?? super close. glued to the hip. hold-your-hair-back kinda tight.
frenemies ?? fake friends ?? toxic pals ?? ppl using her for her money or like, sex, or something ?? anything ??
bad influences ?? who just encourage all of saige’s shit ??
good influences ?? who are like YOINK stop being an idiot.
a tutor b/c she’s like…she’s smart, okay, but she’s also really stupid LMAO. she’s rly bad at math and science. somebody help her.
hook ups ?? fwbs ?? that one, rare one-night-stand that went weird ??
exes ?? she’s sorta noncommittal so idk how long they would’ve dated but like sjdfkbo yolo ?? ex hook-ups too ??
…somebody who just. hates her. but she doesn’t realize bc she’s a big ol’ idiot. she thinks theyre pals !!
let her b a thorn in someone’s side, just like, an absolute annoyance LMAO
gimme an enemy, or like an ex-best friend where something happened between them n it ruined their friendship
i will take literally anything i dont know
she steals ur character’s mail ?? ur cat keeps escaping and she keeps letting them inside even tho she’s allergic ??
one of those friendships where theyre always bickering like an old married couple ?? but it’s Purely Platonic (or is it ??)
an off-and-on again that just. it’s not good for either of them b/c they keep enabling each other and then getting pissed off and it’s a Mess but ?? it’s so hard to stop.
the drug dealer she keeps sleeping with even though she can just … pay for her shit. b/c it’s funner this way !
just … people where their like … relationship status is Blurred and it’s like, are they a thing? are they not? b/c she’s a mess and gets involved with too many people without intending to !

and while too afraid to visit the victim & their family, every month since the conviction of the others involved - she’ll visit one of them in particular. it’s been three years and saige has shown no sign of stopping.
during her last visit, he had sent her on a scavenger hunt resulting in her breaking into his brother’s (& his, technically) home and finding a second iPhone - one she had no idea he had, one with the watershed app installed. their intentions was for saige to be able to access the app - but his shepherd access had been revoked, and the phone had already been wiped clean. regardless, saige took it back to rochester with her.

connections to the victims !!
tatiana samuels / saige & tatiana met when they were freshmen and junior, respectively. they quickly became friends - mostly seen together at parties, where they’d encourage each other to do more, more, more. their friendship was ended after they’d taken a friend’s car on a joyride and wound up crashing it off of a back road. saige freaked out about it & tatiana ... did not. as a result of their very different reactions, and saige’s fear of landing in the news, they cut ties.
george craig iii / saige had met george after bringing tatiana back to her dorm one night where they accidentally crossed paths. one thing led to another and they wound up sleeping together. it hadn’t meant to be a thing at all, but there had been two other incidents of them ‘accidentally crossing paths’ before his disappearance.
hana williams / for the two of them to not be friends would be, frankly - weird, due to their similar friendly personalities. they got along well, but weren’t the closest pair.
christoph wainwright / they had hooked up numerous times before without issue, but christoph’s jealous yet emotionally unavailable personality & saige’s own conflicted feelings had resulted in a huge fight, which led to their falling out - which led to them quickly becoming enemies, instead.
wanted connections !!
give me. a best friend. just somebody who sticks by her side even though she’s a Mess
like, a ride or die ?? is that the same as a best friend ?? idc i want both :)

cisfemale — ever hear people say SAIGE BORDEAUX looks a lot like LIANA LIBERATO? I think SHE is about 20, so it doesn’t really work. The LINGUISTICS + CRIMINAL PSYCHOLOGY major is a SOPHOMORE that is from ALL OVER THE PLACE. They can be BLITHE, but they can also be EVASIVE. I think SAIGE might be a SHEEP. They are living in BALTA. ( snot goblin. 20. EST. she/they. )

stick n’ pokes at 2am – when your drunk and giggling too much in between purposeful stabs, avoiding the cracks in the sidewalk because they’re bad luck and they’ll break your mother’s back – even if your mother doesn’t love you, because you love her, the familiar riff in an old song – one that’s got you strumming along silently; there is no guitar, only empty air lit by the christmas lights you haven’t taken down. it’s may. swallowing down shots, and by default, swallowing down problems. laughing quick, easily, constantly. skinned knees from skateboarding, despite being rubbish at it. wishes on eyelashes stuck to your cheekbones, glitter sticking, running into the ocean at sunrise; feeling at home. excuses, and the many forms they come in. telling people you love them through hand squeezes and fresh muffins, sideways glances and soft, eager grins.

biography !!
the fallible daughter of two very infallible people: robert bordeaux, US lieutenant general, and manon levesque, world renown fashion designer. both calculating, cold, and purposeful.
saige never believed she was created out of love. it was an action with a purpose, intentions to create the perfect child. the hybrid of both military genius and fashion extraordinaire, molded to their will.
it took them no more than six months after her birth for her parents to up and move, thus beginning the cycle of packing and unpacking, flying and driving, state-to-state and country-to-country. the longest saige had ever stayed in one place was two years.
kept on a short leash, homeschooled, and learning skills she had no interest in – she was more like a pet, a project, than a child. the world moved all around her, but she felt restrictively tethered to her parents.
she had always felt this way. a bird in a cage of thorns.
it was hard to keep and maintain friends – saige would be there one day, and gone the next. a ghost, a very visible ghost. even so, she tried her hardest.
running from bodyguards (nannies, in a sense. her father is a paranoid man) into festival crowds and climbing out of windows in the dark of night to swim in lakes with locals she’d meet only a few hours earlier – she absorbed as much of what she could get; this intense, undying love for a world she had always craved to see.
it was the start of something near dangerous – a phase that seemed to never end, rebellion coursing through her veins. a wild child in the making, unknowing of limits. the bad sort of crowd was the crowd she found herself landing, more often than not – introducing the sheltered girl to a world she hadn’t quite known existed
she ran away, briefly, at age fifteen with a man three years older than her – which nearly ended up in a tabloid magazine if it hadn’t been for her parents’ money. though the guilt of her parents’ disappointed weighed on her, the thrill fueled something much worse
from that point on, she became a problem child. from public intoxication to vandalism – it was clear their daughter was unraveling and nothing could contain her.
boarding school was a small attempt to stop it – she got expelled.
she hadn’t intended to go to university, either – but, by some chance – and after a mysterious year-long disappearance from public eye during her eighteenth year of living, next thing she knew, she was a student at gifford university in a town she’d never been to before.
personality !!
bubbly. so fucking bubbly. she’s got so much fucking energy on her – she goes running every morning and every night and swims like every afternoon and she’s n e v e r tired ?? the personality of a coke bottle shaken up but like if the bottle could laugh.
tries her hardest to be the Happy Fun friend, y’know, the one who can hook you up w/ some sicccc shit b/c she befriended/possibly slept with her drug dealer and now she gets discounts.
like, generally, comes off as very confident of herself and fearless and, like, yes–reckless, but like a fun reckless, y’know ??
talks a l o t, could ramble for days, hand gestures and all.
if she wants to do something, she will do it and there’s not much you can do to stop her tbh. she’s very easy-going, very go-go-go, very…mischievous, y’know? even if she’s trying to do something stupid you kinda just have to let her do it or otherwise she’ll mope for three hours and pout at you and you’ll feel ?? this weird sense of guilt ?? which isn’t the Best thing but she’s not the best person either so dfghjh
a vegetarian !! meat makes her sick, like, physically.
uuuhh her vocabulary consists of a lot of ‘likes’ and ‘ums’ and ‘y’knows’, y’know ??
i am like 99% sure she’s got adhd but she’s never been diagnosed with it b/c her parents suck with that stuff. her parents sort of suck in general.
like…she’s currently not on speaking terms with them. she’s not disowned…like, yet, but they haven’t said more than like five words to each other since saige was eighteen and it k i l l s her but they also send her a shit ton of money every month so.
owns like…four cars…..she has them all on campus…..she prolly isn’t suppose to…but she does…one of them’s a real sleek sports car, one is a jacked up pick-up truck that’s decked out in like LED lights n shit, one is the same exact fucking car from the princess diaries b/c saige is obsessed w/ the movie. the other is like. a mini cooper probably.
a photographer, her walls are covered in photographs and art and taped-down plants and in general her room is very ?? cluttered ?? like it’s very home-y but god. she’s a mess. clothes everywhere. she’s probably got a pile of instruments and other miscellaneous hobbies on a chair in the corner that she hasn’t touched in a while
speaking of !! she has a bunch of random, like, skills ?? like knitting and sewing and cooking and three different forms of ballroom dancing, and she can definitely work a gun and a car engine except she goes thru interests so rapidly and is disinterested in most of the other ones b/c her parents forced like half of them onto her.
she plays bass guitar. she loves her bass guitar. she knows other instruments but the only ones she’ll really fidget with are her bass guitar and like, her violin. everything else she’s like ~okay~ at
got really obsessed with languages at a young age and started learning them ?? her mother is like. super french, like genuinely from france, so she already grew up speaking both english and french but she’s learnt others for the hell of it and she’s still learning like three other at the same time which is a MESS but she’s a mess so like can u blame her sdfghj
but like i said, she’s v e r y reckless. very much a party girl. she uses like…quite a few drugs, both socially and alone and frankly – she’s rarely sober.
a budding alcoholic because she’s convinced that without it she’ll be Miserable and Horrible to everybody because she’s a Horrible, Awful person who is the absolute Worse and if drinking vodka mixed in with 23 crystal lite packets helps with not thinking like that then she’ll do it no questions asked
its a problem she’s been developing since she was younger, only amplified by … the situation, that happened when she was eighteen.
is essentially wearing this mask of confidence and giddiness and flirtatiousness b/c she doesnt want people to think she’s doing Not Okay.
she loves so much. she loves everything, everybody. falls in love like five times a day but nothing really sticks to her either. if ur a shitty person/come off as an asshole then she’ll be more likely to be attracted to her b/c shes Always been like this. finds them super interesting which is ?? questionable ?? sometimes i want to just. knock some sense into her but y’know what…it’s fine we’re Fine
she gets around p frequently but is also the type of person who’ll like, try n maintain a positive, good friendship with whoever she sleeps with b/c the idea of having regrettable encounters is smth that Bothers her and she just pretty much refuses.
it’s honestly a bit of a problem ?? she blurs the lines between friendship and Something, Anything More too often and with too many people b/c she just. wants to be loved. but there is never enough !
she does stick n pokes !! a whole bunch !! let her give you one !! she can’t draw for shit but i mean, who cares, right ??
uuuhh her mom sends her like…prototypes of things she designs n shit that isn’t out yet and saige 100% always gives it away or it sits in her closet and essentially that is her go-to gift for birthdays or christmas or whenever she feels like it
there’s literally sm i could say about her but i’ll stop Here b/c it’s getting too long sksksksk
wanted connections !!
give me. a best friend. just somebody who sticks by her side even though she’s a Mess
like, a ride or die ?? is that the same as a best friend ?? idc i want both :)
and just in general, like, people she’s p close to ?? she’s really friendly and is the kind of girl who’d be really popular in high school but doesn’t care abt popularity n talks to literally Everybody like she’s known them all her life.
ESP if ur muse is a lil grumpier !! she will fuck their shit up, but like, in a friendship way.

( cisfemale ) haven’t seen SAIGE BORDEAUX around in a while. the LIANA LIBERATO lookalike has been known to be (+) CONFIDENT & (+) AMIABLE, but SHE can also be (-) RECKLESS & (-) IRRATIONAL. The 20 year old is a SOPHOMORE majoring in LINGUISTICS + CRIMINAL PSYCHOLOGY. I believe they’re living in FIDELIS but I popped by earlier and no one answered the door. ( james! 20! est! she/they! )
i loved naeva but it isnt her time, she doesnt belong in the mortal realm sndjkfjgkh BUT i did wake up from my nap with an INTENSE FEELING OF LOVE AND MUSE for saige, who is my actual legitimate daughter. so pleathe, have her. love her. respect her. if you haven’t already dropped a like on my other post and you’d like to plot with saige, pleathe do so on this one !!

From Around the Web: 20 Awesome Photos of best piano keyboard for beginners
Correction Appended
On an album of bittersweet childrens tunes that she wrote over ten years in the past, the woman who arrived to generally be acknowledged only as being the piano Trainer made available what, in hindsight, looks as if an eerie glimpse of her very own potential.
Im relocating away currently to a place so far-off, in which no person understands my name, she wrote during the lyrics of the song termed Shifting.
youtube
When she wrote that song, she was younger and vivacious, a piano teacher and freelance songs writer who cherished Beethoven and jazz, sunsets and river Seems, long walks and everything about The big apple.
On a kind of beloved walks, via Central Park in the intense Solar of the June working day in 1996, a homeless drifter conquer her and tried to rape her, leaving her clinging to lifetime. Once the attack, the words to her track came genuine. She moved absent, out of New York City, from her old lifetime, and all but her closest friends didn't know her title. To the rest of the world, she was — similar to the a lot more renowned jogger attacked in Central Park 7 yrs previously — an anonymous symbol of an city nightmare. She was the piano Trainer.
Now, over the tenth anniversary on the attack, she is celebrating what appears to be her full recovery from Mind trauma. She's forty two, married, with a little little one. She is Kyle Kevorkian McCann, the piano Instructor, and she or he wants to convey to her Tale, her way.
Her medical professional explained to her it might just take a decade to Recuperate, and Sunday was that talismanic anniversary. I sense my lifetime has been redefined by Central Park, she reported several times ago, her voice soft and hopeful. Right before park; following park. Will there at any time be described as a time when I dont Feel, Oh, This can be the tenth anniversary, the eleventh anniversary?
She spoke in her modest ranch residence inside a wooded subdivision inside of a Big apple suburb. She sat inside of a eating space strewn with toys, surrounded by images of her cherubic, dark-haired 2-yr-old daughter. A Steinway grand loaded fifty percent the room, and at a person place she sat down and performed. Her enjoying was forceful, but she seemed embarrassed to Participate in more than a few bars, and shrugged, in lieu of answering, when requested the identify of your piece. She questioned that her daughter and her town not be named.
She phone calls that working day, June 4, 1996, the working day when I was damage.
Hers was the initial inside of a string of assaults by a similar person on 4 Ladies around 8 times. The final victim, Evelyn Alvarez, sixty five, was crushed to Dying as she opened her Park Avenue dry-cleaning store, and ultimately, the assailant, John J. Royster, was convicted of murder and sentenced to existence in prison.
But the assault around the piano Instructor is the a person folks look to remember one of the most. A part of the fascination needs to do with echoes with the 1989 attack to the Central Park jogger. But In addition it frightened individuals in a method the assault within the jogger didn't because its situation were being so mundane.
It didn't happen in a remote A part of the park late in the evening, but in the vicinity of a popular playground at three from the afternoon. It could have occurred to any individual. The tension was heightened because of the mystery in the piano academics id.
For three days, as law enforcement and Medical doctors experimented with to understand who she was, she lay inside of a coma in her hospital mattress, nameless. Her parents ended up on trip and her boyfriend, also a musician, was in Europe, on tour. Lastly, certainly one of her learners acknowledged a law enforcement sketch and was able to determine her inside the medical center by her fingers, simply because her experience was swollen further than recognition. The law enforcement did not release her name.
The last thing she remembers about June four, 1996, is giving a lesson in her studio condominium on West 57th Street, then Placing her extended hair in a ponytail and going out for the stroll. She will not don't forget the attack, Despite the fact that she has listened to the accounts of the police and prosecutors.
To me its like a reality I realized and memorized, she stated. As if I had been a scholar in school learning background.
She would not take into consideration the man who did it. I may have been indignant for a second, although not much longer than that, she claimed. How could I be angry at John Royster? He was declared not crazy, but I assume by our criteria he was.
Dr. Jamshid Ghajar, her physician at Ny Medical center-Cornell Clinical Centre, as it was regarded in 1996, told reporters that she experienced a ten percent chance of survival. Health professionals had to remove her forehead bone, which was afterwards replaced, to help make room for her swelling brain. When her mother built a public attract pray for my daughter, hundreds did.
Soon after 8 times, she came from a coma, to start with within a vegetative condition, then in the childlike state. As she recovered, she slept minimal and talked regularly, in some cases in gibberish. I used to be obtaining mad at men and women if they didnt reply to these words and phrases, she stated.
Like an Alzheimers individual, she had small limited-phrase memory and would neglect visitors the moment they remaining the area.
More than a number of months, she needed to relearn tips on how to stroll, gown, read and produce. Her boyfriend, Tony Scherr, visited everyday to Enjoy guitar for her. He inspired her to play the piano, against the advice of her Actual physical therapists, who imagined she can be pissed off by her incapability to Perform the way she when experienced. Mr. Scherr played Beatles duets with her, enjoying the remaining-hand part while she performed the right.
youtube
youtube
Which was my best therapy, she claimed.
In August, she moved again house to New Jersey, with her father, an engineer, and mother, a schoolteacher. She frequented previous haunts and called pals, hoping to revive her shattered memory. I had been extremely obsessed with remembering, she stated. Any memory reduction was to me an indication of abnormality or deficit.
Her therapists imagined her development was terrific, but her two sisters protested that she was not the deep thinker she had been.
What bothered her most was that she experienced shed the chance to cry, as if a faucet inside of her brain were turned off. One night, 9 months immediately after she was hurt, she stayed up late to look at the John Grisham Motion picture A Time and energy to Destroy. Just soon after her father had gone to bed, she viewed a courtroom scene of Samuel Jacksons character on demo for killing two men who had raped his young daughter.
The faucet opened, and also the tears trickled down her cheeks. I thought of my dad and mom, my father, and what they went via, she mentioned. Very little by minimal, my experience returned, my depth of intellect returned.
Urged by her sisters, she went back again to highschool and bought a masters degree in songs schooling.
Not every thing went very well. She and Mr. Scherr break up up five years after the assault, even though they continue to be close friends. She dated other Adult males, but she constantly told them with regard to the attack right away — she couldn't assistance it, she said — and so they never ever called for just a next date.
We have to locate you anyone, her Mate David Phelps, a guitar player, explained 4 decades back, right before introducing her to Liam McCann, a computer technician and newbie drummer. For once, she did not say just about anything regarding the attack until eventually she obtained to learn Mr. McCann, after which you can when she did, he admired her energy.
Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, who experienced often frequented her at her bedside even though she was during the medical center, married them in his Moments Sq. Place of work. She wore a blue gown and pearls. While she was Expecting, inside a burst of creative imagination, she and her friends recorded Even though Ended up Young, an album of childrens tunes that she experienced created before the attack, including the track Transferring. Her ex-boyfriend, Mr. Scherr, created the CD. On it, her husband plays drums and she plays electrical piano.
Is her lifestyle as it had been? Not precisely, while she's hesitant to attribute the variances to her accidents. Her final two piano students still left her, without contacting to clarify why, she reported. She has resumed participating in classical audio, but basic pieces, due to the fact her daughter does not give her time for you to follow. As for jazz, I dont even test, she said.
She would want to travel more, sensation stranded while in the suburbs, but she is definitely rattled. She tries to be content with keeping residence and caring for her daughter.
Dr. Ghajar, a scientific professor of neurological medical procedures at what's now identified as New York-Presbyterian Clinic/Weill Cornell Healthcare Middle, who operated on Ms. Kevorkian McCann after the assault, reported last week that her volume of recovery was unusual. Shes in essence regular, he claimed.
Other specialists, who will be not Individually accustomed to Ms. Kevorkian McCanns circumstance, are more careful.
Regaining the opportunity to Engage in the piano may well entail an Nearly mechanical system, a semiautomatic recall of what the fingers need to do, stated Dr. Yehuda Ben-Yishay, a professor of clinical rehabilitation drugs at Big apple University Faculty of Medicine. As soon as brain-injured, you will be generally brain-injured, for the rest of your daily life, Dr. Ben-Yishay reported. There's no treatment, There exists only intense compensation.
The more telling Section of a Restoration, in his perspective, is psychological, and on that rating he counts Ms. Kevorkian McCanns relationship and little one as a substantial victory.
For her part, the piano Trainer understands she has adjusted, but she has made her peace with it. I used to be form of a hyper —— I dont know if I was a kind A, but I used to be bold, she claims. Why was I so formidable? I had been a piano teacher. I dont know very well what the ambition was about. I really did come back to the individual Im alleged to be.

Four years. Four years, a hundred days, four hours, and thirty minutes. That’s what your wrist had said the last time you checked it - only days ago, so you only expected to have said days taken off and didn’t bother looking at your wrist the entire move, assuming everything would stay the same. Then at some point on the morning before your first day at Middleborough, you had managed to shove the sleeve of your hoodie down and caught a glimpse of the timer there - only expecting the seconds to be ticking down from years.
0 yrs 0 days 5 hrs 12 min 20 sec
Your heart had stopped in your chest - four years and a hundred days had disappeared within... how long had it been like this? Since Friday? Fuck, you weren’t sure. Now you just stood in the bathroom, watching seconds pass by, counting down to the very moment you’d meet your soulmate. What if they weren’t a good person? What if you were doomed to be soulmates with an asshole? You pressed your back against the door, staring down at the seconds that kept ticking down, minutes wasting away before your eyes.
You had to wonder how they were feeling. How they might have woken up and seen the timer at their wrist jumped - hell, they might have realized it when it first happened. You hoped that maybe they did realize when it first happened - that you were just dumb for a moment. Maybe their heart raced at the thought of meeting you, or maybe they didn’t notice.
Oh god, what if they didn’t notice?
The sudden pounding at the bathroom door was enough to offset your thoughts as you tore away from it, pulling it open only to be greeted with the sight of your younger sister, Sam, looking annoyed.
“Mama said we need to go wait for the bus,” she said, arms crossed across her chest, “and mom said I couldn’t leave without you.”
Well, at least someone’s looking out for you, if your sister isn’t. “‘Kay,” you said, shrugging off your current thoughts about time ticking past and soon to dash into your room, snatching your bag from the floor before making your way downstairs.
In the kitchen sat your parents; Charlotte and Joanne, two lovely women who met in their twenties after their countdown ended right at a bus-stop where Joanne had been on her way to an interview and Charlotte had ended up taking the bus after her roommate borrowed her car. It was a cute story that you adored growing up and you still enjoyed from time to time - especially when you started thinking about your own soulmate.
“Oh my god, [y/n], come on.” Sam brushed past you, shoving an apple into your hand, and dashing out of the house before your parents could say a word to her.
“Have a nice day, honey,” Charlotte - or, well, mom to Sam and sometimes for you - called out. You forced a smile and left to catch up to your sister.
For the most part, the bus was as you expected it - no one really paid attention to you and Sam as you slid into a seat. Sometimes you caught the glance of someone whispering - who are the new kids; have you seen them; the little sister’s kinda cute, i mean, shit- and you suppress a small smile at the last one and shot a glare in the direction of where it came from - fuck, her older- yeah i saw them glare at me, shut up, they’re looking-
Sam elbowed you. “Stop.”
You chuckled. She smiled a little in return. At least Sam could calm you.
Hours passed by quickly, a schedule shoved into your hands before you were guided to your first class. Classes went by quickly, your eye pinned to the disappearing seconds, minutes slipping away from you until the bell jerked you from your thoughts. Lunch. You were going to meet your soulmate at lunch. Maybe then it wouldn’t be so awkward.
0 yrs 0 days 0 hrs 3 min 10 sec
You bit your bottom lip and made your ward toward the cafeteria. You got lost. You asked a nearby student. They pointed you in the right direction. You glanced at your wrist again.
0 yrs 0 days 0 hrs 1 min 4 sec
Your heart was racing. Second by second went by as you slowly wandered down the hall.
0 yrs 0 days 0 hrs 0 min 20 sec
This was fine. You were fine. Everything was fine.
0 yrs 0 days 0 hrs 0 min 11 sec
You held your breath. Ten.
Nine.
Eight.
Seven.
Six.
Five.
Four.
Three.
Two.
One-
“Fucking - watch it!”
For a split second there were hands on you, shoving you roughly toward the lockers as you tore your eyes away from your wrist. The clang of metal and the pain that spread through your back was enough to get the attention of other students - most of which only glanced over at you, hesitating to look away until you stood back up and took that as a sign you’d be alright before continuing on their way. You fought back any tears - if not from being snapped at and shoved aside, from the pain that lingered in your back. How hard did he push you?
“Woah, hey, are you okay?”
You looked up to see some kid with headphones standing in front of you, his hands shoved into the pockets of a red hoodie. He stared at you, only for you to slowly nod, taking a deep breath as you pushed away from the cold metal behind you.
“Could be better,” you said with a shrug, before staring at the boy for a moment - wasn’t he in one of your classes?
“You’re the new kid, right?” He said after a brief pause. You nodded. “I’m Michael.”
“[y/n]. So, uh,” you glanced back in the direction that boy had gone in, before looking back to Michael, “is... everyone like that? Because, I mean, a little heads up would be nice.”
Michael shook his head, “just the assholes.” There’s a pause before he speaks again. “What were you staring at?”
You frowned slightly - staring...? - before it clicked. Your timer. You shoved your sleeve down your arm as you gazed at the flashing numbers: 0 yrs 0 days 0 hrs 0 min 0 sec.
“Michael?” You looked back up to him. He shook his head, pulling down his own sleeve - his timer still counting down. Then who...?
Oh no.
Oh no no no
This wasn’t happening
This was not happening
“Michael?” You managed to croak, voice shaking, “who just pushed me?”
He stared at you for a moment. “... Rich?” You nodded frantically, and you swore you must have been shaking because Michael stepped back, giving you a little space. “Hey, are you alright?”
You shook your head, jutting your wrist out to Michael. He looked form your face to the timer, before scanning over the line of zeroes. “Wait. You’re not saying that Rich-”
“... I don’t know. I just don’t know.”
It turns out things at Middleborough had changed before you arrived. Aside from what you heard - Jeremy Heere used to be a nerd, didn’t he? But... he’s actually pretty cool... Rich is friends with him, at least. And Jake seems to be friends with him! Didn’t he have some stupid shit with some sort of sheets... - you had Sam to report shit to you since, apparently, word traveled fast.
“Some dude in your grade,” she had said, cutting away from a story about this one dork in band, “pushed his fucking soulmate earlier.”
“Hm.”
“Yeah. Rich something.”
“How do you know it was his soulmate?”
“Well...” She began, “I heard it from Matthew... who heard it from this guy, Nathan, who’s friends with this other guy. Dustin, I think. Apparently Dustin knows shit."
“Did they say who he pushed?”
“Nah,” she said, “at least, no one seemed to know them.” She paused, looking to you, “why are you so interested?”
You shrugged. “Soulmate shit. I think about it sometimes.”
She didn’t believe you. But she dropped it, “what kind of an asshole pushes anyone around?”
You only shrugged again. You didn’t know - nor did you want to know, honestly.
Too bad you’d have to find out eventually.
One week later and somehow word had spread. New kid’s soulmate timer is at zero. They met their soulmate? Lucky. I wish I could meet my soulmate. Wait, was it zero when they first got here though? Rich Goranski’s timer is at zero too. What if they’re soulmates?
No. That’s stupid. They wouldn’t be soulmates.
But what if they were?
“He-ey, new kid!”
You winced at the sound of a chair scraping along the floor as it was turned Some guy with frosted tips and a smile that could win over anyone’s heart instantly was sitting in front of you, leaning over the back of the chair. You’d only heard of this guy and even then you didn’t remember his name. Something like Jason or James or-
He awkwardly introduced himself when you didn’t respond. “I’m Jake. We have math together?”
Close enough. But you forced a smile. “[y/n].”
“So. Where are you from?”
This was weird. Since when did Jake - popular kid/prince charming Jake, apparently - talk to you? You rattled off your hometown anyway. “It’s nothing special.”
He only smiled again. “So... I was thinking... maybe you’d like to come to this Halloween party I’ve been planning. You’re new and-”
“I don’t do parties.” That was... a lie, kind of. You could go to a party - when you knew people there. Parties weren’t always your thing, but they could be fun.
“Rich will be there,” he said, “and you can meet people.”
“I don’t know Rich.”
“Oh. Yeah. Right, sorry,” he said, “just... think about it. Here,” he picked up a stray pen off of your desk, scribbling a string of numbers onto the corner of a piece of paper, “you can text me if you wanna come.”
So you did. After you talked to Michael about it and somehow managed to convince him to give you a ride there and back - something he seemed a little to glad to give you, for some reason. So you donned some Harry Potter costume you found after a quick trip to the store, not giving half a shit whether people complimented or made fun of you because Harry Potter was fucking great and they could deny it if they wanted.
Rich hadn’t seen you. He didn’t see you when you arrived, he didn’t see you while you wandered the party with red solo cup you hadn’t sipped, and he didn’t see you when you finally ended up sinking into a spot on the couch. But at some point during the night he felt a shock travel down his spine, steering him in another direction, and had words constantly whispered to him to guide his every movement. Eventually it got to him.
It wasn’t until he finally drank something - even the smallest sip - that he saw you, sitting alone. New kid. The one with a timer set to zero. The one he shoved only seconds before his own timer had zeroed out. So he crossed the room and threw himself into the seat next to you, catching your attention as the sudden shift nearly made you spill your drink. He didn’t speak first, and after a moment of silence from you, he assumed he’d have to.
“You’re the new kid?” He said. Smart move, Rich.
You only nodded. How many times had you heard that? But you spoke after a second, “[y/n].”
“I’m Rich.” He smiled a little. The words were simple, but at least he didn’t force them - usually he had to throw on some aura, some mask that made him look cooler and careless and a bit of an asshole at times, but something about it just... he liked it.
“I know.”
Of course you did - he fucking shoved you in the hallway- fuck he wished he knew what to say to you. Where was-
He winced slightly at the sudden Japanese that was thrust into his head - what the hell? You were staring at him. Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck- Maybe if he gave you a-
More Japanese. What the fuck was up with-
He stopped. No. No, you were his soulmate for a reason, right? That meant you’d love him, right? No no no you were a stranger and-
Suddenly there was more Japanese. Was that the reason why the fucking thing never let him drink?
Well. It’d be a pretty fucking weird coincidence if you weren’t his soulmate. But why hadn’t he seen you after that moment? It was like you were just... gone. Invisible. Like someone had just erased you from his sight-
“Rich?”
He stood abruptly, muttering something under his breath. Fuck fuck he didn’t to fix this, he just had to find-
You watched him leave.
Fuck, you should have said something else to him. Maybe you could just find Michael and leave and maybe buy discount Halloween candy tomorrow with him. Maybe play that video game he kept talking about - the game he played with Jeremy. Pretend that maybe you could put off talking to Rich for another day.
When you found Michael, he was dead silent and visibly distraught. Fuck discount Halloween candy, you’d buy whatever you could from Walmart and the two of you could game until you passed out. Michael deserved that. He deserved a distraction - and maybe he’d open up to you if he wanted to about whatever bothered him. So you showered him with stupid jokes and soon found yourself in his basement playing Hey You, Pikachu! - which led to a conversation that consisted of “dude, you have a Nintendo 64?” and “yeah” - and making more stupid jokes that actually managed to make Michael smile.
... You might have told Pikachu to fuck off once or twice after it didn’t listen to either of you.
You didn’t remember falling asleep on the couch, and honestly, who did? But the last thing you remembered was Michael playing Paper Mario or something and mumbling something. But you did wake up to a worried Michael, and the sound of a phone buzzing endlessly on a nearby table
“[y/n]?” Michael had whispered, “fuck, they said that-” he caught himself, “someone set Jake’s house on fire.”
“Someone?” You mumbled, sitting forward slowly. Your phone buzzed again. You reached out and managed to snag it.
He hesitated. Oh no. But then he spoke, softly, “...Rich.”
You felt your blood run cold. Rich? Rich set Jake’s house on fire? Another buzz. Sam. Sam’s endless messages plagued you, pestering you about every detail and asking if you were alright and then the messages became more frantic. You managed to text her back a ‘I’m okay,’ which disrupted the rhythm of her panic-filled texts.
Then she was calling you.
You looked to Michael before answering, standing and stretching your limps as you walked away from the couch.
“-Holy fuck, [y/n], what the fuck? I’ve been texting you for - never mind. Did you hear about-” She paused for barely half a second, “are you okay? Where are you-”
When you interrupted her, you heard her take the smallest breath, “I’m fine, Sam. I’m with Michael.”
“... Are you okay, though?”
For a moment, you thought Sam somehow knew about Rich, about your timer, about everything you’d been hiding. You’d be lying if you said that you weren’t conflicted, though. Just - almost everything you saw of Rich just confused you. But just the way he crashed next to you, the way he gave you the smallest of smiles after he introduced himself - something just seemed... off.
“[y/n]?” Her voice is soft. It’s nice.
“Yeah."
“When are you coming home?”
You looked over to Michael, then pulled your phone away long enough to catch a glimpse of 9:43 a.m. “In a few hours. Before lunch, at the latest.”
“... Alright. Mom and mama were freaking out - but-”
Suddenly Sam was gone and you were met with the frantic shrill of Joanne, “[y/n]? Are you alright? Baby, you aren’t hurt, are you?”
“I’m fine, mama, I left before anything happened-”
“Where are you? Text me the address, I’ll come get you-”
And she did. You thought that maybe you could get a few hours to yourself, just to think, but eventually you were in the backseat and you had Charlotte’s hand reached around the seat in one hand and Sam’s in the other and the dull silence between the four of you. It was the sort of silence you only heard about, the silence that came from an almost and the silence that came from the silent thanks that it was only an almost. Sam squeezed your hand. You squeezed back.
When you got home, neither Charlotte nor Joanne asked any questions. The buzz of your phone brought you back to reality. First an unknown number introducing themselves as Jeremy - who, from your experience, you had no intention of talking to. How he got your number, you weren’t sure, but he asked how you were considering Rich (as if he somehow fucking knew, you had thought before shoving it away into the back of your mind) and you told him you wanted to be left alone. He pushed you slightly. You told him to fuck off. He didn’t text back.
Then there was Michael. And then another unknown number - Dustin. You told Michael you’d talk to him later. Dustin you told to fuck off. You needed to think.
Alone.
Thursday morning, weeks later, you decided to skip school. It turns out that Beth Israel - where Rich was currently - was a city away. Not that it was a problem - with enough research you found the easiest way was to hop on a train, make it there and find the hospital and way until visiting hours started, and then talk to Rich - who would hopefully be awake now. You managed to hook Michael into your plan - somehow convince him to drive you to the train station and pick you up - and were able to convince Sam to cover for you (and supply you some money she’d been stashing away with a few promises that you’d have to repay her later). So you met Michael and shoved your bag into the backseat of his PT Cruiser, and swung into the passenger seat. Halfway to the station, Michael had spoken to you.
“What are you gonna do?”
“Talk to him. About... this,” you said, motioning to your wrist.
He nodded. “And?”
You shrugged at this point, “find out what the fuck we’re gonna do. Look, if... he’s an asshole, I don’t want to be associated with him.” You paused. “Does that sound bad? Yeah, that sounds bad, fuck, I just don’t know what I’m gonna do, I just... I just want to talk to him.”
Michael didn’t speak for the rest of the trip. Not until you had gotten out with your bag, saying he’d be there as soon as he could and just to watch out for yourself and the usual warnings you probably only ever heard from Joanne. You nodded and finally left him to go buy a ticket and find a place to wait. Almost twelve dollars later, you wished you could still count as a child.
Oh well. Time to go see Rich and pray you don’t get in trouble.
By some stroke of luck, you did manage to get through the hour ride and the walk to the hospital unscathed. You looked like some lost kid wandering into the hospital, asking a older lady behind the front desk where you could find the intensive care unit, before wandering and managing to find an elevator from her vague directions, punching the number for the floor. After a few seconds, the elevator jerked to life just after the dread began to build, but then it shuddered to a stop before the doors slid open and you were quickly out of the metal deathtrap.
The waiting room was quiet, littered with few people, some softly chatting as they waited for someone to join their little party, few just reclined back with their heads against the wall - except for one teenage boy who decided to slump down and rest against the shiny plastic back cushion of the couch. It didn’t look comfortable, but he didn’t budge of shift in any way, so you could only assume he was fine.
While wandering aimlessly trying to find Rich’s room, you nearly ran into two men. One reeked of a mix of beer, cigarettes, and cheap cologne - and you only assumed he was trying to mask the other two scents. He looked nervous, hunched over slightly and his hands jammed into his pockets, only glowering at you for a second before stepping around. His friend - or younger brother or son, you weren’t sure - only mumbled an apology as he looked at you with eyes too familiar.
But he and the other was gone before you could say anything.
The scent lingered. Rich didn’t fucking know how he got in there, but he was glad he was alone once again. Well - at least Gabe was a nice sight. He rarely saw his brother sometimes so, even if his dad was there, there was at least something. And now he had balloons that Gabe probably bought from the gift shop - GET WELL SOON stretched across one in bright letters and the other one of those yellow balloons with the smiley face on it, both tied off and set on a table that’d be out of his reach even if he wasn’t in a cast.
He looked to the ceiling, breathing deeply and shutting his eyes. Everything felt too quiet. Now he didn’t have a fucking Muppet telling him what to do - not that Rich didn’t still like the Muppets, but having Constantine hanging over his shoulder all the time wasn’t exactly making him love the Muppets.
The door opened. Was it time for a nurse already? Fuck if he knew - he was just waiting for whenever he could get out and get home.
“... Rich?”
Wait.
“... Are you awake?”
He looked over to the door, and for a moment he swore he was dreaming. You wouldn’t be standing there - but you were.
You kind of forced a smile as you shut the door behind you, walking over to his bed. “Hey.”
“Hey.”
He stared at you. You reached to the straps at your shoulders, gently squeezing at them - a habit he swore he saw Jeremy do in the past. It was... weird, seeing you do it. “How are you?”
“Fine.”
“That’s... good, I guess.”
“Why are you here?” He asked... rather bluntly, honestly - but he definitely didn’t expect you.
“I wanted to talk. About... us.” You drew the sleeve back, holding out your wrist to him, “I think we’re-”
“Soulmates. Yeah... I’m sorry.”
Holy shit, he had a lisp.
“[y/n]?”
“Did you know?” You asked, “after you pushed me, I mean.” He shook his head. Well, at least there’s that out of the way.
“Sorry,” he said again. You went to speak, but stopped, “look - I’m sorry I’ve been an asshole. But...” He paused, “we’re soulmates and...” Another pause. “I’m different now.”
“Are you?” You asked. You’d heard of this shit before. “Rich, I just - I don’t want to get involved in something if things are going to be like they were before-”
“They won’t be. Look-” he began, only to pause as he gathered his thoughts, “there was this... pill.” Drugs? “Like... a computer a-and it implants in your brain - and it tells you what to do. It’s called a SQUIP and-” He paused. “Jeremy Heere has one.”
“Jeremy?” Then something came to mind - Jeremy Heere used to be a nerd. Jeremy used to be Michael’s friend. ... Then... maybe it was Jeremy who hurt Michael at the party- “Why?”
“Mine told me to.”
“Why did you have one?”
“I... didn’t want to be a loser and someone said it could help me change into someone that my soulmate - you would like.”
“Rich-”
“Look, I’m sorry - but I want a chance. We’re supposed to work somehow, right?”
You nodded. “Then... maybe after you get out? We can talk. We can be friends and shit.”
He smiled. He had freckles. He’s adorable.
“I didn’t tell my moms about you,” you admitted, slowly sitting down on a clear spot on the bed.
“Moms?” He said slowly.
“Yeah. Uh. Moms. And my sister - Sam, she’s younger than me,” you said a bit too quickly, “but I think I might tell them - if that’s fine with you, I mean.”
“Uh. Yeah, go ahead.” He paused, “wait- he glanced over to the calendar, days written on fully up until today, where only little writing was - “it’s... Thursday? Why aren’t you at school?”
“I needed to talk to you,” you said, “and... today worked, I guess.”
“Go to school,” he said.
“Dude, I’m already here. Besides, the train I need doesn’t arrive until almost one. So... you’re stuck with me, Rich. Deal with it.”
You and Rich talked until the hospital kicked you out of the room. You had refused to go to the actual hospital cafeteria for any sort of food, but Rich managed to convince you to stop by somewhere - a vending machine, food truck, anywhere - to get something to eat. It was kind of cute how he worried about you, telling you to be careful on the way home. So you promised you’d take care of yourself and set off from the hospital.
You made it home in one piece, waiting on a bench for Michael to drive up - and after that, it was a nice ride home. Your mothers didn’t know, and Sam didn’t say anything about it to you. You weren’t sure how to break the news to your family, so you sat around for hours before dinner, googling and reading through countless guides and how to articles. Your heart nearly stopped when you heard the sharp knock before Sam called out that dinner was ready.
Alright. You were just going to tell them that you met your soulmate over a month ago. No big deal.
... Very big deal.
Big enough that you didn’t speak for half of dinner and didn’t realize the conversation fell silent. So you looked up and did the smartest thing.
“I met my soulmate.”
And by smartest thing, you literally just blurted it out without a second thought. That’s one way to break the news. Sam stared at you, Joanne kept looking from you to Charlotte, and Charlotte... was smiling like crazy.
“Sweetie, that’s wonderful! Who are they?”
“His name is Rich-”
“Wait,” Sam immediately interjected, “you’re...”
You nodded a little. “Yeah. I’ve... known for a little over a month-”
“[y/n], what the hell?”
“Language, Sam,” Joanne warned gently, “why didn’t you tell us sooner?”
You shrugged. “I guess... I was scared?” You lied.
They bought it. Charlotte gushed over the idea of you and this Rich boy, before immediately swatting away the thoughts of an actual relationship so soon because you were young and you had time to figure out what you and Rich were, only to be interrupted by Joanne - who shot you a wink as she nudged Charlotte to recount the story of when they first met. Then you brought up the idea of going back up to the hospital on Saturday - and then that was another round of questions. So you lied again, coming up with some bullshit excuse to why he’d be in Beth Israel. And while they didn’t buy it as easily as they did with your other lie, you had permission and money and planned to go visit Rich again.
Eventually Rich got out of the hospital. The two of you began talking, and by extend - you and his friends began talking. You hadn’t gone to the play, but apparently one way or another the rest of the cast ended up with those... supercomputer pill things. They were nice, for the most part, even if you felt a little out of place. But at least there was Michael - who had his best friend back and definitely seemed much more chipper due to it - who was at the incident, but didn’t end up with a... SQUIP? You weren’t sure what it was - but Rich was different now and... he was actually kinda cute, when you really thought about it. He had a habit of saving a seat next to him for you, sometimes scooting closer and glancing to you to make sure this was okay, right? you were fine with this, right? no? alright - back i go, which eventually stopped happening as you grew used to having Rich next to you.
Sometimes he’d send you dumb memes at three in the morning when he couldn’t sleep. You’d smile and offer to talk if he wanted - and usually he’d reject the offer, insisting he’d be fine. The first time he opened up to you was during winter break, when he ended up spending the weeks almost entirely at your house. Maybe that had been the turning point. Where Rich would open up to you, making vague comments about regrets turn into him reaching out, even the smallest bit, and letting you in. Where Rich would sometimes find your hand as intertwine his fingers with your own, not saying a word because you were an anchor when thoughts of what he did and who he was started to bother him. Where Rich would stand next to you, inches shorter but quietly resting a hand at your hip, or the way he’d rest a hand on your arm as he pulled up something on his phone to show you, or maybe how he’d oh-so-casually rest an arm around you.
The group noticed. Sometimes there’d be a movie night and Rich would preserve the spot next to him - whether it be on the floor or couch - just for you. You left the room once to grab another drink, only to hear the sound of Jeremy crying out seconds later and the sound of the group immediately either laughing or giving Jeremy shit because “dude, that’s [y/n]’s spot, rich isn’t gonna let you sit there, why’d you even try” and you fumbled with the can of soda at the thought of Rich actually keeping your spot. The group noticed how the two of you were constantly touching in some way, whether it be you slipping your hand into Rich’s, or the fact that Rich would rest a hand at your hip and you didn’t bat an eye at that, or the fact that sometimes you’d kind of just snuggle into Rich whenever he’d wrap an arm around you.
And apparently, Rich had this whole love-struck look whenever he looked at you, according to Christine. He’d just sometimes watch you as you wrote or doodled or focused on anything, sometimes forgetting about what he was doing before smiling a little. He just stared at your lips, drumming his fingers impatiently against his leg.
And then one day, he just kissed you. You’d slipped your hand into his after your last class, rambling on about some homework or something, and when you turned around he just went for it - smashing his lips against yours awkwardly, cutting off your thoughts before pulling away. For a few moments, the two of you stood there, before you gently squeezed his hand and stumbled over your words, trying to resume what you’d been saying only to end up asking if he wanted to go out sometime.
He did. So you went to the mall and ended up making out behind a clothing rack.
Honestly, it was pretty great.
Even if someone (i.e. a certain Jakey D) saw and got a shitty picture form afar, and somehow said picture ended up in the group chat barely five minutes later, and there was no mercy in teasing you and Rich.
It was still worth it.
“Babe,” Rich complained, sitting on your bed as he watched you pack. “Why do you have to leave?”
Apparently, your mothers made the plan to go visit family on prom weekend. You tried to get out of it at first, saying you were responsible and you could drive them to the airport and stay home - but that idea was shot down since they knew about you and Rich and you haven’t seen your aunt or your cousins in a while. The timing was terrible, but you frowned and stopped complaining. You told Rich, who was disappointed because you two could have fucking wrecked prom - his words, not yours - but shrugged. You jokingly said he could take Michael, and next thing you knew you had a text from Michael asking why Rich asked him to prom and not you.
“Family thing.”
“Why?” He asked.
You shrugged. “Couldn’t wait? I dunno. Have fun at prom, alright? We have next year. Or you could hide in my luggage - you’d fit.”
“Shut up,” he mumbled through a badly suppressed smile.
“Make me.”
So he kissed you. His hands were cupping your face at first, and you kind of stumbled into your bed, awkward at first before sort of melting into the kiss.
“Rich-” kiss “I still-” kiss “need to pack-”
He frowned as he pulled away.
“Just let me finish, then... we can pick back up where we left off.”
You never thought you’d have the whole pull away from each other and act like you weren’t just making out moment that you saw on TV, but... you could check that off of your bucket list. Thankfully, it had only been Sam. Which didn’t mean you didn’t get shit for it, but it was better than anyone else walking in on you.
Rich looked cute in a tux. Michael looked cute in a tux. All your friends looked cute in prom attire and you were sitting in your aunt’s living room in shorts and a t-shirt as you cursed Florida. One of your cousins was leaning against you, curiously peeking over your arm at the stream of hearts you were sending Rich.
“Is that your boyfriend?” She teased, smiling up at you.
... Were you and Rich technically dating? You shoved the thought back. “Yeah.”
“Is he your soulmate?”
“Yeah.”
She gasped softly, “wait, really? You met your soulmate?” She was grinning ear to ear.
“Yeah, Bee.”
“Do you love him?”
Did you? How do you answer a kid like this? You kind of smiled as you sent him a text to have fun and b safe after adding on another heart. “I think so.”
rich: love you
“Does he love you?”
[y/n]: love u too 💗
“Yeah. I think he does.”
She looked at you with that childhood innocence. The sort of look - as if you were a fairy tale to her. “Are you two gonna get married?”
God, that was a thought. “I don’t know.”
You were tempted to text him again - asking him what you two were. Were you two officially dating? But you decided against it. It was prom night and the two of you could talk later.
You still sent him a text later - two in the morning later, but still later. It was simple and short, but it was still something.
[y/n]: i love you. i’m glad it’s you.❤️
You put your phone on the table nearby, shifting uncomfortable on the couch - where you had volunteered to sleep after letting Sam take the guest room, since sneaking into the kitchen to steal a cookie that your uncle made was a thousand times easier when you didn’t have to sneak down stairs that creaked no matter where you stepped.
Your phone buzzed to life after a few minutes of near silence. You moved, picking up your phone and clicking it on.
rich: i love you too

Will a speeding ticket affect my husbands insurance if I am insured through a different company?
"Will a speeding ticket affect my husbands insurance if I am insured through a different company?
Last year I got a traffic ticket for speeding. I am insured through AAA. We were only recently married and the car I drive is registered through my parent's name as they bought the car. I am not the primary subscriber and I am just down as a driver. My husband has his own car insured through State Farm Insurance. I realize that my own car insurance would be affected but would my husband's? We dont have the same last name, Im not on his insurance in any way other than perhaps a driver but even that I dont think we have updated. We got a notification from State Farm that his rates will go up now because of my violation, in my own car, through my own seperate company. Is this right? Can they do that? Does this mean that both AAA and State Farm get to raise the rate on me?

Will my insurance go up over one speeding ticket?
I live in Pennsylvania and have Traveler's insurance paid by my parents. About 2 days ago I got a speeding citation. The officer who pulled me over said they clocked me going 74MPH in a 55MPH zone. I did not dispute this because I know I was speeding and who could have missed the huge signs with the posted speed limit. Anyway I am only 17 years old. This is the first time I have ever been pulled over or got in any trouble on the road. Prior to this I had a perfect driving record. My dad has not gotten any traffic violations in over 30 years and my mom has never gotten any violations of any kind. My older sister who is 18 (also on our Traveler's insurance) has a perfect driving record as well. Do you think our insurance rates will go up considering this is my first ticket and everyone in my family has a PERFECT record except for the ticket of my dad's?

Does urgent care cost a lot without insurance?
Please don't treat me like I'm an idiot. I went to the doctor at my college. They told me my throat looks very bad, but I tested negative for strep throat. They are closed all weekend, so I would have to go to urgent care. Last time I was sick (way less sick than this) they gave me steroids and they told me I would have been in the hospital if I waited after the weekend. When I was born, I had a pneumothorax, so I have very bad asthma. I just had an asthma attack, so I want to go to urgent care. However, my dad passed away in january, so we can't afford health insurance (only the one the school provides with tuition). I was just wondering if anyone knows about how much a regular visit would cost without health insurance. Thank you""

Best way to find affordable therapy for a teenager with depression?
I'm seventeen years old and I think I have depression. All teenagers are emotional, I get that, but I know this is more. When I'm occupied and around people for a few hours at a time or less, I'm fine and usually even happy. Then when I actually have time to stop and think and let my mind wander, I usually feel kind of hopeless and just very sad. I also have other emotional issues, like the littlest things seem to enrage me. Also, I read somewhere that depression can cause physical issues such as digestive issues (which I have been having a lot of the past four or five months). I cancel plans a lot now, either because my stomach is acting up or I feel too sad to go anywhere and I just dont want to be bothered with people. Ive been sleeping a lot more than normal lately because thats the only time things dont bother me. When I was about thirteen I had an issue with cutting, I would talk to my guidance counselor (which is not an option now because I did home schooling and now am done with school until college next fall) and when she realized that I may have some more serious issues, she called my mom. My mom always brushed it off. She talked to me a total of one time, only when I went to my older cousin and my cousin forced my mother to talk to me. Basically, my mom got mad because I said I didnt feel comfortable talking to her and she refused to send me to a counselor, then she said she would send me to a counselor (at that time I had insurance) but she never actually ended up doing anything. So I went back to doing what I always do, pretending to be fine, and for the most part I controlled it. I stopped cutting until about seven months ago, which was also when all my other issues started popping up. I havent cut myself in a few months now, but I still have the urge to which is not okay. Depression and other mental health issues run in my family, and I keep thinking of one particular relative who got so bad that she took her own life. I know that at some point she must have been like me, where it was difficult but still somewhat manageable, and it just scares me that I could get to the point she was at. I have no insurance, and we have very little money. I know Yahoo Answers isnt the ideal place to seek advice, but I dont know where to go. I only have one true friend that I trusted enough to tell, and obviously she is my age so shes just as clueless as me. Then I have tried talking to my older cousin (not the same one I mentioned before, she and I dont talk anymore) but in her world even if the money is not readily available, when its needed they find a way, so she doesnt get the concept when I tell her I really do NOT have the money for a psychologist or insurance. Is there any websites or anything that provide information on free or more affordable counseling for teens? Im ready to admit that I need help I just need to find somebody actually willing and able to give it to me.""

How would obamacare affect our family?
We are a middle class family, smack dab in the middle... Hubby's job provides health insurance, but for a family of 3, which we are, it would cost $200 a week for coverage, with high deductible, so! Since hubby is in exceptional health and hasnt had any medical problems (knock on wood!) he continues without health insurance; I remain on my parents plan as I'm 25 (aka under 26yrs old), and we pay for child health plus for my daughter, for a small fee a month, which depends on our income We simply couldn't afford to pay $800 a month for family coverage, so doing it this way saves us, like $600+! So since we don't make enough to pay for hubbys $800 family plan through work, is obamacare basically going to force hubby to get health insurance through his work, even though it's complete garbage? Or will his employer have more affordable family plan that we could afford? Just trying to understand it all better! Thanks in advance! :-)""

I know if one has insurance in California and They get in a accident in another continental US state, its not problem since, they could just be on a road trip. But what if (s)he ships their car to Hawaii, and they keep their old insurance, and 3 months later they get in an accident, is the insurance company going to look at the report and say hmmm well theres no way he drove to Hawaii on a road trip, they must of moved there , and not cover the accident? the reason I ask is: my current CA insurance is 90/mon. The cheapest i found in Hawaii is 230/mon which is INSANE!!!. Im only wondering hypothetically, what if one found a way to get by the vehicle inspection with their CA insurance. then they get in an accident a few months later, will the insurance company stil cover the accident? I know you have 30 after you move to be covered, how do they verify/determin what was your exact move date?""

How long does car insurance process take for collision?
So my mother was involved in a collision several days ago and actually hit a police car on the highway. Her car has some serious damage and had to be towed. Now we're left wondering how long it will take before the insurance company determines whether it's totaled or fixable. It's an '09 Nissan Sentra and the passenger side airbag went off, the front passenger door's damaged, and the front right tire looked to show some axle damage. She was definitely at-fault but the the officer was kind enough not to cite her since she lost control of the car. Now we're left wondering how long it will take before the insurance company notifies us what they've decided. I was informed an appraiser went to look at the car two days ago though. Any comments on what the process will be like from now on? Thanks.""

The ones powerful numbers suggest that more faculty packages would require an iPod touch. (Some schools can even standardize over to the iPod touch’s brother, the bigger and greater steeply-priced iPad, which runs on the same iOS platform.)

Wednesday Interview Insights
Sirena Laguana Insights
1. Demographic Info: female, hispanic, 20-30s, urban, travels 1-2 times per year
Key Insights: Based on the frequency of travel, this customer would value a service like ODL. It would be convenient and eliminate the hassle of having to store luggage in limited closet space.
2. Demographic Info: female, asian, 20-30s, urban, travels 5-9 times per year
Key Insights: ODL would be a service she would utilize for shorter trips, since she only has 1 piece of luggage that is used for longer trips. No issues storing the luggage because it's only one piece and goes in the closet.
3. Demographic Info: Male, caucasian, 30-40s, suburb, travels 3-5 times per year
Key Insights: Doesn't have issue with storing luggage, but would be interested in a service like ODL if the price was right.
4. Demographic Info: Male, Hispanic, 30-40s, Urban, travels 10+ times/year
Key Insights: Corporate traveler who only has a carry on because of the hassle associated with keeping a larger bag and having to check it. He would be interested in a service like ODL if he was able to expense and even further, if additional services were offered, such as laundry service or pick up and delivery of luggage to final destination.
Bill Martin Insights
1. Demographic Info: Older user, has lots of luggage, just uses as needed.
Key Insights: Also they get free luggage from employers/etc. and will just make new. No need to add clutter but if something starts to go they would just buy new.
2. Demographic Info: from younger Millennial working professional
Key Insights: already has the luggage but if they were to know about this service before buying, may have been better off renting for the few trips. They have taken enough trips in general to cover the cost of owning in their mind, but they see premium benefit of not needing to lug the large piece around
3. Demographic Info: working professional - older traveler,
Key Insights: good bit of travel for real estate ventures. Doesn't consider need for regular/business travel, but would have used this when traveling on vacation with family
4. Demographic Info: millennial traveler with young kid (<1 year).
Key Insights: Concern about sanitation/bugs/disease. Also currently using larger bags to store their baby goods so have found a way to "repurpose" them.
Daniel Jenks Insights
1. Demographic Info: Male, 28, Lead Developer, Los Angeles, Asian
Key Insights: This consumer travels at least once a month and owns four to six bags. His biggest pain point is that he hates having to unpack everything when he arrives at his destination. He did consider himself ‘somewhat likely’ to use a subscription service if the turnaround on luggage was within a day or two days at the max. Price point was really hard for him to decipher, “If I traveled more I would pay more. Especially if you had a variety of bags like surfboard bags.”Affordable to him was in the 10 dollar range, because that’s what he is accustomed to paying for Netflix or Spotify. He did seem particularly interested in sporting equipment bags, “I mean my surfboard bag cost me $300 and I’ve used it once.” Luggage does take up half the space in his closet, but it did not seem impactful enough for him to have considered alternatives. And in fact the most useful product for him would have been a garment bag, “I don’t wear a ton of suits, but everyone here (in my apartment) needs suit bags every now and then.”
2. Demographic Info: Male, 29, Advertising Account Exec, Los Angeles, Caucasian
Key Insights: My second millennial/urban consumer travels at least once a month. “I own four pieces of luggage. I’m a hoarder, but I really only use two of them.” The one he uses the least fell in line with our survey results, the largest suitcase in his collection, as did his pain point, storage when not traveling. He mentioned, “I have a small apartment so it’s frustrating, especially the larger pieces. It becomes frequency of use. Is it really worth taking up all that space.” He mentioned that he has an entire shelf in his closet dedicated to luggage. But despite this he wouldn’t really use a monthly subscription because his carry-on satisfies his needs. He would pay $25 for a one-time use, but considered paying more if it was a work trip because he could probably expense it so could potentially pay more.
3. Demographic Info: Female, 27, Student, Washington D.C., Caucasian
Key Insights: She owns three pieces of luggage: a duffel, a large and small canvas style luggage. She estimated that she takes at least a dozen trips a year in which she requires a suitcase. Again we discovered that the largest suitcase was the least frequently used. “I store it in a closet. I feel indifferent about storing it, I have the perfect spot for it.” Her significant other probably uses the duffel and a large suitcase a relatively frequent amount which was surprising to discover. However, when asked if she would rent a suitcase if she didn’t have the right one she mentioned that she, “would give up the large one and rent it because I use it less. If I didn’t have one, I would pay $30 dollars, maybe more because I’m not working now. If I was working I would probably do a cost-analysis of renting versus buying.” The key-insight here is that for a working professional, the cost analysis would play a significant factor in how we price the service.
4. Demographic Info: Male, 20, Richmond, VA, Caucasian
Key Insights: This consumer was particularly interesting. He was a student who revealed that he had a personal connection to the identity of his smaller backpacks. Additionally, he only owned one suitcase, but felt very strongly about how frustrating it is to store his bag when he is not using it.
