Courtney's head has been foggy lately. She's been having a hard time remembering anything clearly from the past few months up until a couple of weeks ago; when she tries to think about it, the thoughts slide away. She can't tell which ones are real. They all contradict each other.

She does not like existential crises. She does not like uncertainty ( Read more... )

[Kelly pouts into the full-length mirror. She turns this way...and then the other, smoothing out her dress and meticulously adjusting the accessories one last time, tucking the price tags into the fabric of the outfit so she can get a full feel for her new look. There - perfection ( Read more... )

[The plateau a ways off of the central entrance to Umbra Cave is a low one, though it's elevated enough to give a decent view of the area. Maxie is comfortable here, familiar with the place; he'd used it as a training ground not too long ago ( Read more... )

[This is Aurora forest, about a quarter mile south of the CMA: not far, but deep enough in the undergrowth that you'd have to know what direction to walk in order to find the camp that Courtney's made there. It's a good location. She can spy on the CMA, become familiar with the place, without worrying too much about anyone dangerous finding her. ( Read more... )

[Aaaaaaaaaand good morning, Island. It's been a while since Maxie has really been both out in the open and...um, conscious enough to register all of you.
