Karolina had been back on the island for a few days, she'd been too busy to really feel like she was back. On top of her classes, she'd had various things to take care of on the mainland. She was turning eighteen in a matter of weeks, and there was stuff to take care of with regards to her legal guardians and the impending severing of that ( Read more... )

Had Karolina ever thought ahead to what it might be like to turn into a boy overnight, she would not have expected to freak out as much as she had. Complete with flailing and putting on layer upon layer of clothing as if that would somehow force her body back to normal. She also hadn't left her room since yesterday morning.

A mess ( Read more... )

Karolina was finally back from LA. She'd been called in last Monday afternoon, and the week had been busy, between the gang looking for their parents' secret hideout and fighting random criminals who seemed to have been flocking to the city now that he Pride was gone. But at least they had a new Hostel now, underneath the La Brea tar pits. Goodbye ( Read more... )

Apart from going to class, Karolina had spent yesterday mostly hiding out and dealing with the horrors of having handwavily been a guy all weekend. That meant also that she'd missed out on celebrating her birthday in any kind of a significant way ( Read more... )

With both her not particularly exciting mainland therapy session and the seriously more exciting flight class over, Karolina had come back to the room, and gotten to decorating her side of it. Nothing extravagant, and not a lot of stuff. But, she'd seen something nice on sale on the mainland this morning, and decided she could spend just a little ( Read more... )
