Wolves of a Pack, Birds of a Feather... (RP Thread)

[This is my intent. :D]

Zahra
I sighed, turning around when Ryan spoke to me, rubbing my forehead wearily. "No, I don't," I replied quietly, "That was my mom. I'm at the school to learn. I'm here in this parking lot with you guys because I told off that- Eraser, or whatever, and got attacked for trying to keep it legal. I don't honestly know whats going on. All I know is my mom's being insane and refusing to tell me anything, as usual." More to myself then them, I said, "I just want to know why shes always been so secretive, thats all." Flynn had been snickering this entire time, which was rather grating. He seemed to find the idea of hunger game tributes amusing. I sighed. "I don't feel like giving you my entire life story, which includes a lot of being shut up in my room until I stopped telling everyone that I was a 'real life angel' or that I could 'fly like a tweety bird'. Do you want the supplies, or not? I've got papers I need to bring home so I can be ready to teacher science and something else tomorrow, my screenplay to finish for school, a student to take home since shes going to be staying with me a while, and my mother to deal with." Flynn snorted, and said mockingly,
"Tweet tweet!" I glared at him.

[One thing thats interesting is that birds don't have arms. The bones in their wings are basically arms. So when you give a human wings, its basically giving them a second pair of arms.
I kinda wish Rayk would get resentful towards Zahra since shes (no offence Zahra), but in comparison to his issues, shes a whiny little kid. It would be funny.

Crystal

[We never decided it. I pointed out that there were ways they could have successfully done this.
I think it'd be cool if she was technically her mom, personally. Like, a dramatic twist. *darth vador voice* Crystal, I am YOUR MOTHER.
Yeah, I was wondering that myself. Though I'd compare Switch to Prim and Galen to Katniss. Galen is tougher, and Switch is all innocent and cute.]

Zahra
Once I figured I'd calmed down enough to not snap at everyone, I turned to Crystal. "Sorry about the phone call," I said, a little sheepish, "My mom is super protective, and shes not happy I'm living on my own. If there's anything you have inside school, can you let me know? I have to go in there to get my own papers and stuff, anyway, so if you need to get stuff from where-ever you're staying, I can go inside and get everything while you're doing that." I smiled at her, trying not to look annoyed from the call. Seriously, couldn't she just tell me? Apparently not.

Crystal

[Oh, Shifty, Shifty... I feel your pain. That was the main reason I HATED the last book. W-why?

If everyone was a character from the books, regardless of love interests and gender, I think...:
Nathan would be Cinna.
Switch would be Prim.
Galen would be Katniss.
Flick would be Finnick.
Shift would be Peeta
Rayk would be Gale
Quinn would be that kid who went insane and ate the other tributes. Or Annie.
Crystal would be good as Katniss, too, but maybe she could be the mother who for most of the first book was awkward, then even more awkward in the second two. Or maybe Haymitch. Or Annie. Oh! No, she'd be Joanna!
Ash would be Wiress
Scrayp would be Cato.
And- I'm getting way off topic. Sorry.]

Flick
I will not deny, the threat of the 'putty tat' made me laugh a little. The look that Shift gave me... not so much. A little scared.
But I didn't show it!
Thats... good.... right? At his question, I looked around. Where WAS Dog Girl? Soon enough, I spotted her. She was coming over, giving every Eraser she stepped over a suspicious look, as if she wasn't sure it was down. When she found one waking up, she kicked his face so hard it practically smashed. Then she came over, looking with disgust at Shift, before focusing on Miss Dawkins, who'd turned to talk to someone else, and the first aid kit that looked more like a big suitcase. Suspicious looking.
There's a lot of suspicion going round here right now. *imitates southern accent* Its getting mighty suspicous-
(FLICK! SHUT THE HELL UP AND GET ON WITH THE STORY!)
(Yes, ma'am. :p)
I opened my mouth, ready to explain what was going on to her, but she held up a hand, glaring at me. "No," she said to Rayk, "Its too suspicious. And convient. Who knows what could be in there?" She glanced at Miss Dawkins, not seeming to recognize her, even though I'd seen her in all of my classes at least once this year. Today it had been art. She was usually in Art or English.
Then Conner looked around, confused. "Wheres Galen?" she asked. I realized that Shift hadn't said anything. He probably thought she was still here.
Oh, crap.

[In response to Kitsu: Cool. Well, I'm planning something with her mother and her, her mom explaining the truth. So maybe her mom knows about Crystal? We could do it like that. And yes, Crystal, there is evil behind that smile.]

Zahra
I nodded, relieved that she didn't have anything else needed. "Alright." To the others, I said, "I'm just going to leave it here. If you want it, you can have it, if not... someone else will find it. Or run over it, possibly..." I shrugged. "I'll be right back," I said to Crystal, "Can I meet you at my car? You can't miss it, its completely white, with blue-bird stickers all over it, and my business information on the back. The license says 'MRSHMLLW=LV'."

['Marshmallow=Love'. Apparently licenses don't have vowels much. WB.]

Flick
I'm sure Conner was completely satistfied with her days work of effectively, inderectly, ending my existence on this planet. I, on the other hand, wasn't exactly happy. But did I let them know how scared I was? Hell no. So instead, I said lightly, "Oh, shes back at camp. Cassidy hasn't been feeling well, so Alex went to check on her, and deal with Galen's cuts and stuff, and check on camp. Normal campy stuff. They're probably roasting things over a campfire right now. Shame we had to miss out on roasted 'putty tat'. S'pose we can try it later." Conner punched my shoulder, and I stuck my tongue out at her. "Oh! Or maybe you can chase down some squirrel's, since thats your specialty, isn't it?" I asked Conner mockingly, making fun of the many times she got distracted by the little rodents. She really hated squirrels.

Flick
I squeaked, startled, when he grabbed my collar and made like he was about to shake me like a rattle. Yes, I squeaked. DON'T JUDGE ME. "Just... like, claw scratches... And a bite... and a wrenched arm..."
And yes, I mumbled all this very very quietly in hopes he wouldn't hear everything and lose his temper. "But Alex can handle that!" I added quickly, then added, in more of a mutter, "I'm starting to think this will be a good thing for me in a few minutes once you're done."

Crystal

[It would. I was trying to think of a character as outwardly mean as her, and I realized that Haymitch kinda had a similar attitude. Thank god Crystal doesn't drink.]

Zahra
I hurried inside, getting together all my papers, and dumping them in a bag, since I didn't have time to finish here, then ran right back out before I managed to lose control of my brief color again. I had parked a couple rows away from the door, so it wasn't hard to find my car. I put my stuff in the trunk, taking out my purse, since it had keys and stuff, then unlocked the car. Once Crystal and BEN came over, I said, "If you don't mind the slight mess, the front seat is free," to Crystal. Then I added to BEN, "Are you... able to sit? Because I put my stuff in the trunk so that you can sit in the back seat, I'm just not sure if... you can." I blushed, and this time managed to keep my hair from flashing more then a few streaks bright pink.
