Suzie hates the story of how she found herself stuck in Moon River.

Twenty-six years ago, her father had went out on a college road trip with his friends. As they crossed into Moon River, they soon found themselves stuck in town after some car trouble. Given that it would take time to fix, the group decided to grab a bite to eat at Rodney's while mechanics worked on the car. Coincidentally, it had been one of the days her mother was scheduled to work, and her father found himself swept off his feet. Though they moved on not long after, he couldn't forget her face, and eventually uprooted his entire future in search of the woman he had fallen in love with that day.

As stupid as it sounds, it worked out for them in the end. The two got married, settled down, and had kids—"Dumb and Dumber" (Jacob and Tucker), her two older brothers, and later Suzie. She wishes it didn't work out as easily as it had did.

Call it teenage woes, but Suzie despises almost every aspect of her life. She hates being stuck in a no-name town. She hates her parents breathing down her neck, even more so because they both work at the local high school as a teacher-counselor combo. She hates her blockhead brothers for always starting things and being a general nuisance. The only thing Suzie ever looked forward to was her yearly school breaks, where she could travel to her grandparents in Oregon and help her grandfather with his fishing hauls. At least there she could feel respected—useful, even—and be able to get away from all the bullshit she had to deal with at home.

Unfortunately, 2023 had other plans for Suzie. Her grandfather had a sudden stroke, which led to his passing. The person she cared the most for had been ripped away, and Suzie has been crushed ever since. She's mad at the world, and isn't afraid to let others know it now that her parents made the choice to keep her home this summer break rather than let her say her goodbyes.

@Pluck Lemme know if anything needs to be changed or whatever. Might work on another character, too. Not sure yet.

Previously: Trauma Dumping

As she finished speaking, Haleigh felt guilty. This was supposed to be an introduction, and yet it seemed more like an impromptu therapy session. Regardless, one by one, words of encouragement flowed in from her teammates. Banjo. Rory. Katja. They didn't mind that she had dropped a bombshell onto the group, nor so much the fact that she was a loaded gun with a faulty safety, one that required the utmost care and attention to avoid an accidental discharge.

Perhaps for the first time since Haleigh developed her powers, Haleigh didn't feel alone. She felt understood, that she wasn't the freak she thought she was. They were "normal", so far as normal could be considered given that they had become hyperhumans and held dangerous abilities within them.

Feeling renewed, Haleigh turned to the trio, nodding a thank you in their direction as Rory took the time to speak up next.

Rory himself was a man of few words. He was a fellow Canadian, and apparently he could "borrow" one's power. It must've been why he was so nervous, Haleigh noted. She had just admitted how destructive her own ability was, and the others spoke of varying risks and factors to their own as well. Depending on who he borrowed from, whatever happened next could be disastrous.

Hopefully he doesn't get any ideas. Haleigh dreaded the thought of Rory being foolish enough to "borrow" her own ability. Though, maybe I'm just worrying too much over things.

By then, the conversation had shifted back to Calliope once again, in part because of Rory's insistence that someone went next. This time around, she went more in depth into her own life, explaining to the group that she was the daughter of a senator, and had to live up to his endless expectations. Though such a life was foreign to Haleigh, she nonetheless felt apologetic, even more so as she watched Calliope retreat into her shell. It was a place Haleigh was all too familiar with, and a place she didn't want to see someone else fall into the same trap as she had done many times prior.

Before she could say anything, however, Banjo beat Haleigh to the punch, and embraced Calliope from behind. Maybe that was what she needed, Haleigh figured. A gentle push into a better path, not unlike the confidence boost Haleigh had received earlier from Banjo and others.

After that, it was Luce's turn. She was also Canadian, and coincidentally also from British Columbia and with a history of camping. Given the proximity of their hometowns, Haleigh wondered if they might've unknowingly crossed paths before. Houston was only half a day from Vancouver, but there were camp grounds all over the region. As Luce continued her introduction, however, Haleigh felt a influx of shock as realization suddenly hit her like a truck speeding down a highway.

Brothers. Accident. Trees. No. It couldn't be, right? She knew this person. She knew Luce, at least as much as the news told everyone. Surely, they had to be connected. It was too much of a coincidence to be anything else.

As the conversation fell onto Iñigo, who had been the last person left to introduce themselves, Haleigh moved closer to Luce.

"I know you, Luce." Haleigh whispered to Luce, hopefully loud enough to be heard over Iñigo and Banjo's laughter-banter. "From before. I don't believe we met, but you were everywhere a year ago. Christ, I even posted about it. Do... Do you want me to take it down? It's the least I can do right now."

A wave of emotions rushed Holly as Lee and her crossed the street to the park's gazebo.

The fact that everyone was armed to the teeth still didn't sit well with Holly. It felt unnatural—uncomfortable, even—as much as it was needed for their own safety. Lila and Jason had swords. Winnie, a pitchfork. Even the Valero tenants came with a hunting crossbow and a makeshift pole hammer. In time, Holly figured, she would get used to it. But now? The sight of all the assorted weaponry put on her on edge.

Listening to Jason speak, Holly figured his speech would go as it did. He didn't have much of an idea as to what the street should do, despite having called the meeting himself. And then there was the comment from Alena, whose words ultimately stung more than anything else. She had tried believing that the zombies weren't their neighbors anymore, yet it was a concept that was difficult to come to terms with. Undead as the shambling corpses were, they still wore the faces of their once neighbors. They were people Holly knew. People she grew up around. And now, they wanted her dead; to eat her alive.

Biting her lip in anxiety, Holly pushed her thoughts away. They were supposed to be having a meeting, and so she decided to add her two cents in. After all, it was the least she could do now.

"Some of the houses already have fences. If they're not stuck in the ground, couldn't we, I don't know, use those? We'd just need to stick them back together again." Holly announced, then casting a glance to Lee and the Sparling siblings. "And a few of us here have some of the larger houses on Mulberry. I'm not sure how much room we have, but our house has a sunroom that leads off into the backyard. We always just used it for spare storage, so it's mostly empty right now."

Of course, that depends if dad doesn't freak out over it...

Holly took another look around the gazebo before speaking again. "Does anyone else have anything to add? Lee? Harper?"

"None of it matters." Classic CJ, still not giving a shit about anything. Anni thought about saying something in response, but the nagging feeling returned in her head. She was supposed to be "turning over a new leaf" now. Yeah, that was right. Not letting others get into her head was a weird experience, and admittedly one difficult to fight against. But getting feisty again would've accomplished nothing for the better. Okay, maybe. Maybe not. She still wasn't quite sure on that one. But the time to be a snarky asshole had already left the station, and so Anni ignored CJ, and turned her attention back to the the conversation at hand. Anni glanced at Hanna first. The woman was clearly feeling it after just a few sips of her drink. Someone was certainly a lightweight drinker, Anni came to find out, and she wondered if Hanna had a way home after this. Considering Ivory and her were supposed to go shopping after the reunion, that was likely the case. Still, Anni made a mental note to remember to offer the option. She wasn't sure where Hanna lived these days, but she could at least drive her to a hotel or let her crash back at her piece-of-shit apartment until the booze wore off for Hanna to drive responsibly. Then, Anni looked to Ivory, listening to as she spoke. There was a weird tension in the air, Anni considered. Between Hanna and Ivory. Maybe she was misreading the mood. Maybe it was the booze talking. But whatever it was, Anni felt there might've been something more to what she was seeing. Not that Anni had a problem with it. Good for them if it was indeed the case. As the conversation shifted back to food, Anni decided to play ball with everyone. Though Hanna was paying, Anni decided to think of the others at the table. It'd be another step in the right direction, at least. "Throw a pizza on there. The rest will probably want to snack on it." Anni asked. "Plain cheese, I guess. Not sure if the others want anything else on it." ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
