Event Log: The Hope of a Child

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for the The Hope of a Child event
Where: All over the city!
When: January 23rd-Feb 1st
Warnings: Youths


By now, the gods have probably done enough weird crap to you while you're asleep for you to be a little suspicious- but it's not like you can just not sleep, especially when there are a few supernatural forces making your eyes droopy and your body feel heavy.

And now, when you fall asleep, you'll wake up somewhere else and you'll likely have quite a different temperament- you'll be younger, maybe a little more naive and innocent, and you won't exactly remember all the wild stuff that's happened to your adult self. Maybe now you'll be a little more trusting and emotional, hm? The gods could definitely use a little boost in power, and what better way to do it than to harness the power of overemotional kiddos!

Or maybe you aren't affected at all and find yourself surrounded by youths. What are you going to do when your best friend doesn't know how to cook for themselves? Or your bitter rival is throwing a temper tantrum because they broke their favorite toy? Nobody asked for this kind of responsibility, but think about what would happen if nobody was around to take care of these babies...

► This log covers January 23rd-Feb 1st.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well!
► Please tag headers of threads with content warnings where they apply
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!

[Laura looks at the girl and figures she's got to be in her midteens]

Always? That doesn't sound fun. There have gotta be times when you just want to go out and do your own thing.

[Abigail nods.]

Oh, yeah. Marissa's always texting me with things we could do, parties to go to, or to just hang out. But my dad wouldn't like it. I go to school, to his construction site, then home with him.
outofthefire: (not a second thought)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-01 12:29 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe next time Marissa texts you about a party, you should go. Maybe you'd meet someone? And you're old enough to do things your dad wouldn't necessarily like.
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-01 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Abigail shakes her head. The idea of meeting someone, seems impossible. Her father doesn't even like her having one friend.]

Oh, no. I could never do that. I can't even say no to my Dad. And if he thought Marissa was a bad influence, he wouldn't let us be friends.
outofthefire: (I know what the boys want)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-01 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
[this girl needs to be taught how to misbehave]

You're how old? Fourteen? Fifteen? Every girl that age needs to get out a little, sow some wild oats. And what your dad doesn't know won't hurt him.
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-01 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
But he would know. He knows everything I do.

[It isn't logical. He has Abigail so brainwashed that she sees him as almost god-like.]
outofthefire: (I was born to be the other woman)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-02 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
Everything? He can't possibly know everything. Especially if you're quiet and sneak out of the house.

[as soon as Abigail goes back to her true age, Laura's finding her again and taking her out for a night on the town. or what passes for one]
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-02 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[Abigail looks at her with wide eyes.]

He does. He always knows where I am. I'm surprised he's not here to take me back. If I tried to sneak out, he'd...

[Abigail's not sure what he'd do; she only knows it'd be bad.]

He'd be angry.
outofthefire: (a freshmen generation of degenerates)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-03 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
[Laura tries to go for Laura-logic]

He always knows where you are? That's not exactly normal. Not for a girl your age.

How old are you, thirteen? Fourteen? When I was your age, I was sneaking out and going to parties all the time.
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-03 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
He's very protective.

[It's the best word she can think of without making her father sound as creepy as he actually is.]

Not me. How did you sneak out? Wouldn't your parents have heard you? Or seen you?
outofthefire: (am I that girl that you dream of?)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-04 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds like it.

[her parents were protective, but Laura was always better at sneaking than they were at protecting]

There was a tree right outside my window. I'd just open the window and climb down. [a hint of irony goes into her voice] Besides, my parents knew I was a "good" girl.
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-04 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
My dad thinks I'm a good girl too. I'm his whole world.

[It doesn't feel right when her father has her mother and his work.]

I think it's everyone and everything else that he thinks is bad. He wants to keep me from all of it. Sometimes, I feel like if I didn't have to go to school, he'd lock me away.
outofthefire: (caught up in the game)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-05 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
I was my father's whole world, too. It didn't end well. For me.

[Laura sees something of herself in Abigail. what she could have become, for good or bad]

Maybe everyone and everything else is bad. But you can't hide from it forever. And you know what? If you didn't have to go to school, he probably would lock you away.
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-06 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Abigail's extremely curious as to what that could mean. Her mind is full of ideas, all the thing she fears that her father will do to her eventually.]

I'm sorry. I guess you're glad to be here then, away from him.

[Wherever here is.]

Guess I should be grateful for school then. I am planning to go to college someday. When I'm too old to have to follow his rules.
outofthefire: (don't wanna see all the things I've seen)

(cw: rape, incest, violence)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-06 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
[in Laura's case, it was being raped by her demon-possessed father, then being murdered by him]

I'm very glad. I just wish I hadn't had to die to come here.

You're already too old to follow his rules is what I'm saying. You don't have to wait to go to college.
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-06 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Abigail frowns.]

You think we're dead? And this is what? The afterlife?

[She shakes her head.]

I'm only fourteen. I still live at home. His house, his rules. It'll be different at college. He can't stop me from going if I get accepted. I just have to hide how well I'm doing at school until then.
outofthefire: (every night I used to pray)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-07 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
I know I was dead, but now I'm not. I'm pretty sure you're not dead.

Then, if I were you, I'd apply to colleges far away from home. Colleges you'd need a plane to get to. Just to keep him from interfering with you.
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-07 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
You were dead like you had some kind of out of body experience?

[Abigail nods. She has plans to be free someday, even if a part of her feels it'll never happen.]

I've already started making lists of which schools have the programs I want.
outofthefire: (I have an LA crass way about me)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-08 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
No, I was dead as in dead. As in, my father stabbed me to death with a knife.

Yeah? What're you interested in studying?
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-08 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
People don't come back when their dads do that.

[She says it matter of factly. A part of her expects her father to do something similar.]

Psychology. I want to work for the FBI someday.
outofthefire: (I am fucking crazy but I am free)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-08 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
They do when they're sent here. And did I mention that my father didn't just cut my throat and end it. He stabbed me. Repeatedly. It hurt.

[she's also matter of fact. there's no getting around the fact that her dad was possessed by a demon and killed her]

I don't know which colleges are close to the FBI headquarters, but there has to be one far away from your dad.
am_i_a_monster: (Default)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-09 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Abigail considers it for a moment. She was in pain. Pain caused by someone who was supposed to love her. Maybe thinking she's dead is easier than dealing with it. Abigail still can't accept that she's in another world where people can come back from the dead, so it's easier to put a psychological spin on things.]

I'm sorry that happened to you.

FBI headquarters are in Washington, and the academy is in Virginia. I'd find a college anywhere. I could always go to the academy after I get a degree. As long as I get out of Minnesota.

[She doesn't think he'd ever leave the state. It's his hunting ground.]
outofthefire: (little bits and pieces)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-09 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
So am I. But now I'm here, so. [shrugs]

Then go to California. Florida. Texas. Any place that's far away from Minnesota.
am_i_a_monster: (amusedsmile)

[personal profile] am_i_a_monster 2018-02-09 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Someplace sunny and bright?

[Abigail chuckles. She doesn't think she's meant for that kind of life.]

I'd be totally out of place. It's nice to think about though.
outofthefire: (caught up in the game)

[personal profile] outofthefire 2018-02-09 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Someplace far away from home.

[better that kind of life than being under her father's thumb]

Who says you'd be out of place? People go those places from all kinds of areas.
