Re: SCENE: The ingenue arriveth
It's been really difficult times, recently... Surely even this family's felt the upheaval.
Re: SCENE: The ingenue arriveth
[She reaches out to brush some hair from her face.]
Stay with me, and you will know security. And comfort.
Re: SCENE: The ingenue arriveth
But... are you sure things will be so safe here? It's weighed on my mind—my poor old mother is terrified for my safety.

Re: SCENE: The ingenue arriveth
D-Damned terrorists!
Re: SCENE: The ingenue arriveth
So, see, if you'd like the safety and security that the new regime will provide, perhaps you'd like to provide us some assistance.
