*a petite brunette is here now.

Blinking, rather confusedly.*

What the hell?

*if you listen closely, you can hear a hint of a southern accent.*

[[OOC: This is April from RENT. April Dupree, 21 at time of death... yeah. She's a sweetie, but can be rough around the edges.

Mimi and Sarah, I blame you.]]

*she's seen pictures, heard about what happened, and now? now she can only stare*

Are you . . .?

[rainbringsroses]

*hesitates, as she's not entirely sure who this is.* Um... hi? I'm... I'm April Dupree. *holds out a hand*

[not_pookie]

. . . I thought you might be. But considering that I was told you were dead, I figured it might be best to check. *shakes her hand* Joanne Jefferson. *and the usual pleasantries seem a little off, in this case, but she'll add,* I've heard a lot about you.

[rainbringsroses]

Wonder if any of it's good. *wry smile* *then...* Wait, you're... you're the girl Queenie's dating? Um, Maureen, I mean.

[not_pookie]

Of course. They all loved you so much -- love you, I mean. I'm used to hearing past tense, when it's about you. *apparently it's been a good few days, because she smiles at Maureen's name, affectionate, and even proud (that's her girlfriend, yes, isn't she amazing?)* That's me. You've heard already, huh? I guess word travels fast.

[rainbringsroses]

Well, R said something about it. *grins* Welcome to the family, I guess?

[not_pookie]

Thanks. *grins* Considering how things happened, I've been surprisingly well-received.

[rainbringsroses]

Good. *rocks back on her heels*

Um... sorry, I just... not entirely sure what the hell's going on, so...

[not_pookie]

No one really is. It's . . . really weird. There are quite a few other people here who are supposed to be dead, and no one really knows why. No one knows why any of us are here, really.

[rainbringsroses]

Okay. *uncertain smile* Glad to know it's not just me

[not_pookie]

Definitely not. We're all confused as hell. It's almost comforting -- creates a feeling of community, you know? *wry smile* That "I'm just as lost as you are, don't leave me alone here" kind of thing.

[rainbringsroses]

*grins* I like you. You seem very intelligent.

[not_pookie]

I made it through law school, anyway, although given some of the other people who did, you start to wonder if that means much. *grin*

[rainbringsroses]

Yeah. *grins* Cool, so, a lawyer? What the hell got you into a relationship with Queenie of all girls?

[not_pookie]

*laughs a little* Good question.

[rainbringsroses]

I take it she sorta... overwhelmed you and you're not sure? *grins*
