Blimey, this apartment ain't 'alf large. Are they all like this? Can't get use t'havin' this much space. Wonder if Beast'd mind me sharin' her room. Real different from the tents. It's weird them bein' so high up too. Glad I've got a good head fer heights or I'd feel right strange. Nice of this place t'give us somewhere t'stay though, never thought I'd live somewhere like this.

T'other day, that was one of the curses, right? Frightened me stiff, all that noise an' fightin'. It was 'orrible, hope they ain't all like that.

Right, I wanted t'ask, someone told me there's an orphanage 'ere. Anyone knows who I can talk to 'bout givin' an 'and there maybe?

... it's almost weird. This. Room. Rooms.

[freckleddoll]

Yeah, I know! S'almost like havin' a proper 'ouse. T'is a proper 'ouse, really. D'ya like it?

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

Us in a proper house.

You guys did real good. 'Course I like it.

[freckleddoll]

Feels a bit like a dream, don't it?

'm glad you do! Bet we can make it feel real cosy between us.

Um, I got a friend who works at the orphanage! I think they're hiring.

[freckleddoll]

Really? D'ya mind tellin' me her name, miss? Don't need a full-time job, already got one o' those, but I'd really like t'help out a bit if I could.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

I don't think that'd be a problem! My friend - Hikaru, by the way - used to just help there before they employed her. Looks like they're always accepting volunteers.

[freckleddoll]

Sounds good - s'what I want t'do, volunteer. 'ave a bit of free time now that there's no travellin' t'be done. I'll ask fer her then, miss, thanks!

[antiheaven.livejournal.com]

Didn't the circus want to hire you?

[freckleddoll]

They did! But I wanted t'lend a hand over there too.

[antiheaven.livejournal.com]

That's good... The orphanage is where lonely children are, right?

[freckleddoll]

Well, if there's lotsa them they won't be too lonely, but they can always do with more people t'look after them.

[virgocentric.livejournal.com]

There's an orphanage here?

[freckleddoll]

Yeah, s'what I 'eard!

[virgocentric.livejournal.com]

That's good. It... didn't really occur to me that The City claimed children that young.

[freckleddoll]

It ain't right, I know. Poor mites, endin' up 'ere away from their families.

[misterblackbird.livejournal.com]

You must be a newcomer here, unless I miss my guess.

[freckleddoll]

Yeah, only got 'ere a few days ago!

((ooc: oh lol. /can only imagine how badly she's mangling it))

[misterblackbird.livejournal.com]

And you sound like someone from my own country too.

Welcome to the City, I suppose.

[irislover.livejournal.com]

A orphanage? I believe so... But I don't know where it's located, Mis... f-forgive me, Freckles!

[freckleddoll]

S'alright, Romeo, girl named Umi told me who t'ask for!

[irislover.livejournal.com]

Are you going to live in an Orphanage? Because I can offer you shelter in the Opera Abandoned, if the Princess Rue and Sir Fakir agree with me.

[phantom-earl.livejournal.com]

What interest is it of yours whether or not there is an orphanage?

[freckleddoll]

To give 'em an 'and there, of course.

Suddenly treading down the path of benevolence, are we? Do you think it's that easy to forget one's self?
