To anyone who came by, they'd probably think Sia had gone through some little changes in the last day or so, but Sia had always been like this. Her room was cleaner and a lot quieter without the dog in it, her wardrobe was darker in color and just slightly more revealing than usual, but other than that, she might seem almost normal ( Read more... )

Sia was curled up on the cushion of her bay window that was totally in her room now, looking out at the scenery below. She'd been feeling kind of weird over the last day or so, for no apparent reason, and now she was just content to be pensive and... hum to herself. The tune just spoke to her.

Just close your eyes ( Read more... )

After a week of this, Sia was pretty much over it. Walking around herself was fine, but she was tired of moving when anyone else got up, she was tired of having to live out of a bag, and she was beginning to wonder if she could bribe the squirrels into not reporting it if she just decided to move back to the dorms ( Read more... )

Sia had been really pretty busy this week for some weird reason, so after a class that involved a crashing airplane, she decided she was okay with having a quiet day. One that maybe didn't involve I Never ( Read more... )

Drinking a little at a party had been one thing. In fact, Sia hadn't even finished a glass because there were so few things in that game that she'd done. So last night's gremlin-fueled bender was something completely new.

She remembered being horrifyingly obnoxious, and there being karaoke. And then dragging her double into more karaoke while ( Read more... )

Sia had known at some point that she'd be called home to do some work, and to be honest she couldn't believe it had taken this long. And if it turned out this was was a "You were safer there and we wanted to protect you" thing, there was going to be so much yelling. But since she got the call, she found she was actually excited to be going back ( Read more... )

Sia usually had no problem at all with focusing, no matter what she was trying to focus on. Today is was really, really a problem ( Read more... )

Sia had been trying to study. Normally she was very good at staying focused, too. It was just that today, anytime she started to get anywhere, she'd hear an impatient throat-clearing noise that seemed to be coming from the strange sprig of green... thing that had appeared on the ceiling today ( Read more... )

Just like any other day, you could find Sia sitting on her bed, checking her messages and trying not to be really irritated that she still hadn't heard anything back from home.

Unlike every other day, there was a puppy who really, really wanted to show his appreciation for her releasing him from that ball, by the way he kept jumping into her lap ( Read more... )

Since she'd been out of contact for a bit, Sia had decided that she would send a message home today. She wasn't doing very well with it, frowning at her datapad and having only decided what not to say. She wouldn't include anything about what had happened this past week. It wasn't that she wanted to stay here when she could be doing other things ( Read more... )
