When you are so emotional you are close to dropping from every rp you are in just so people won't have to deal with you anymore

When a character that meant something to you gets torn down and thrown away like trash... 😢

@alexfangtalon I shall wait for @Wick's opinion before I plan out a full character. But I am already envisioning him running into our group, discovering Grace and coming after her to try and take her away from Kat as a punishment for... well, that would be part of the backstory *evil chuckle* just a warning though : when I make an evil character they are not only evil they are usually bat-shit INSANE

Lyra's eyes widened. He was half-Hyland?! He was no ordinary bastard. She herself was a bastard of the mountain, he was a bastard of the family itself! Should she even be talking to him? Was there a heiarchy among bastards as well, with her lower than him?
But he seemed untroubled talking to her? He even seemed interested in her predicament. The question was, should she tell him? Would he spread it to anyone who would listen? Would he keep it a secret? Would he somehow be able to help?
Her decison was made quickly. If she didn't talk about this to someone she was going to burst.
"I am begging on your honor as a Sky to keep this between us, good sir," she said, clasping her shaking hands together. "There is... someone... who has decided that he wants me. In what capacity I'm not certain but considering my postion I can only assume it's for..." she winced and swallowed before continuing. "I am terrified. The person in question is... not of a low standing. It must all be a game for him to pursue me, even though I had told him such a thing cannot happen. He insists. But if he wins the tournament then he will marry the princess and I shall be forgotten and left alone."
She was tearing up at that point. "I don't know what to do. I have no power, no family, no protection. The only living relative I have is my whore mother who would hand me over on a silver platter to anyone who paid her."
How did she end up stammering all of this to a stranger, close to weeping? The more she tried to stop talking, the more she spoke.
"I am sorry... I shouldn't have told... but since the feast I have been so afraid... I don't know what to do. Should he not win and continue this pursuit... Lady Hyland will feed my remains to the pigs or worse she'll toss me out for the wolves, both animal and man, to consume."
At this point she was weeping in earnest. It felt good to unburden herself, to share her fear.
"I'm sorry," she stammered through her tears. "I'm making such a fool of myself."
She wouldn't be surprised if he ran away. Most men were not comfortable with female tears. And how was a man to understand such a dilema as this? Not for the first time Lyra wished she had been born a boy.

Dang it I got so in the zone posting that I forgot to tag people! >__<
I had an evil idea.... what if I bring Kat's father into this as a bad guy? *evil laughter*

Kat shook her head slightly at Jenna. "It doesn't help to keep it in. The nightmares don't go away. Trust me. At least you got to kill the bastard. Mine is still alive as far as I know," she said in a low voice.
Gracie, blissfully unaware of the important talk going on around her, bounced up and down giggling at everyone and babbling in her baby talk. It made Kat wonder sometimes what she was saying. "Da!" Gracie announced when she saw Matt, giving him a slobbery kiss before he left. It wasn't quite 'Da-da' but she was getting closer.
Suddenly two random kids appeared out of nowhere. How long had they been here?
The girl, who couldn't have been bigger than 12, approached and started fawning over Gracie. The baby, not knowing this new person, looked unsure for a moment. She studied the new face with a serious look for about 2 full minutes before breaking into a smile. That meant she had accepted and approved this new person.
Kat nodded at the suggestion that she show the kids around. "Come on guys," she said, leading them out of the kitchen. She showed them most of the habitable areas and avoided the rooms that had been destroyed in the attack. "Never go outside by yourselves, even if it's just stepping outside the door. Always have someone with you. If you get hungry during the day and want food, let someone know. We're not going to let you go hungry, but we want to keep track of food stores," she explained to them. "Same thing with water, both for drinking and bathing. I'm not saying don't drink or bathe, just keep track of how much you use so we can replinish it."
She stopped and kneeled beside the little girl, so she could look her in the eye. "And promise me something. If anyone, anyone touches you in a bad way or makes you feel uncomfortable... I don't care who it is, you come to me or Matt or Nikki. Okay?"
She had been around Sadie's age when she had dealt with shit no child should have to go through. Kat would be damned if something similar happened to a child under her watch. She hadn't been able to save Jenna and that was eating at her more than she wanted to admit.
She looked at the boy. "The same goes for you. You guys are going to be safe here. And if anyone threatens that safety, they'll deal with me."

The loud roar of the horse made Lyra cry out and stumble backwards, falling to the ground. She covered her ears and closed her eyes against the horrific noise. She jumped even more when she felt something licking her. Opening her eyes she saw it was a small fox. She scooted back a bit, worried the animal might bite her. It approached again, slowly and keeping it's ears down in a submissive way. It was actually very sweet looking. Lyra reached a shaking hand towards the fox and it pressed it's head to her palm, allowing her to stroke it's head.
The male voice made her gasp and jerk her hand back. She recognized him of course. He was the blacksmith back in her home. She had never met him formally though, had just seen him in passing as he delivered things to the keep.
She swallowed hard and stood, brushing off her dress. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause the horse distress," she said. "We haven't met but we share a home. My name is Lyra Sky, servant of the Hyland family."
She looked towards the tournament and started shaking again, thinking of what was happening. "It's not your horse's fault. It is mine. I am afraid in my distress I was not paying attention to my surroundings and I startled him."
Here, with another low-born as herself, she felt more talkative and at ease.
"I am not alright, but there is nothing that can be done about it unless you can influence the outcome for the tournament."

It was impossible. Impossible and unbelievable. How could this man love her of all people? She had been a cold bitch to him ever since their baby had been born, but it had been to keep him away from her. It had been because she had known the moment she'd woken in that hotel room that he was too good for her.
"You're too good for me," she said, getting down on her knees and pressing her forehead to his. "My father screwed me up so badly I'm not sure I can be what you deserve to have. But I do love you Matthew Hyatt."

It was later that she wandered down to the kitchen area where Nikki and Jenna were. Balancing Grace on her hip, her left hand felt very heavy with the ring on her finger. She felt like there was a spotlight on it. It made her nervous, how people were going to react. She knew Nikki would be thrilled, but as for the others...
When Kat entered the kitchen she zeroed in on Jenna. Something was off. She had the look that Kat recognized all too well.
Going up to her, Kat placed a gentle but firm hand on her shoulder and stared at her, her eyes narrowing a bit. "Excuse us a minute Haru," she said, backing Jenna away. She was silent a few moments, just staring at the other woman. "I'm not going to ask what happened because I already know. That look in your eyes... I know it because I've had it before. You don't have to tell me and if you say 'back off bitch' right now I will with no more questions asked. But if you need help dealing with this from someone who understands, I'm right here."
Grace babbled in baby language and reached out to pat Jenna's face. And the promptly proceeded to pull her hair a bit, giggling in the process. Kat gently pulled the hand away. "No Gracie. Don't pull. Be nice," she said, holding the baby's hand and running it gently over Jenna's hair.
