princess maker - WILD CITY
[ When you insert the key and open the door, you'll find inside the room looks small, cramped, just one living space without any doors—you can hear noises of the bustling life outside, as well as other people beyond the thin walls. the space bends on the walls, and a basket sits on the table in the center of this studio room with a blanket folded into it.
Inside, a baby stirs restlessly - you hope she goes back to sleep soon, and you play your flute in hopes of lulling her back to sleep. Unfortunately, a sharp knock sounds from the ceiling - the tenants upstairs don't like what you're doing. You take a more drastic measure, singing softly to your baby as you rock the basket back and forth and hope the tenants don't complain again. ]
-
[ Slowly, the scene changes, fading in and out with various silent scenes—the baby cries, and in turn, the upstairs tenants knock at your ceiling again; she finds her way to your flute, tooting happily though no noise comes out; a little toddler, she becomes attached to a stray cat; you decline her request, and she storms out to run away for a little while as you regret; she returns, covered in cat hair and ignores everything you say; then the wall becomes opaque. ]
[ In the corner of the room, a young girl the age of 10 crouches, looking away from you. she holds a cat in her arms, petting the creature constantly.
You wish you could have done better for your baby girl. But, this is what you love to do and maybe you'll get a gig that pays well enough that you two can move out of this shithole - hopefully. You tried your best to rear her, but with how infrequent you're in the house, working odd jobs in the day and performing at the pub at night, you're not sure anymore. You know she is capable of anything if she puts her mind to it - even becoming a princess - but you also know it's not easy to become a princess, and she's horribly equipped for any of that. Then again, if anything your little tyke is tough, and if anyone could be a rags-to-riches princess, it would be her. Thankfully, you've emergency savings - for her schooling, of course. You have a lot of regrets, but maybe it's not too late. ]

Re: DECISION
She seems to have dealt with the hordes by avoiding them completely, quite the feat for a blind girl...it's made easier by the fact that the zombies seem less responsive at night, as if harried by the cold.
Once she gets further out than she's been before, she starts making a few more markings before making her way back home.
Do you say something to her?
Re: DECISION
Hey, Dice, can I talk to you?
Re: DECISION
Re: DECISION
[ he's speaking pretty casually, not like he's asking so she gets into trouble, but because he's genuinely curious and wants to know what she's doing ]
Re: DECISION
[ look at this smug ass smile ]
Re: DECISION
It looks like you're exploring and figuring out the land, but I wanted to be sure.
Re: DECISION
Re: DECISION
But would you want to do that with your daddy? You can probably explore a lot more than you can by yourself.

Re: DECISION
[ it's ok. 1 wit over here

Re: DECISION
[ You decide to go adventuring with your daughter, since she wasn't actually sneaking out after all! She's just dumb. Everyone wins! ]
