I have learned so much in this place, Father. I go to school now and have a job and do all kinds of things that real girls do. But there's still so much to do and tonight I hope to have another experience that I've heard so much about. I've watched movies and read books and nearly all of them talk about slumber parties as if they're the quintessential coming of age experience.
I want to have these experiences, things I never would have done had Mother succeeded.
So tonight I've planned a night with my friends, and invited them to invite a few of theirs. I have cookies and ice cream and pizza and games and scary movies to watch and I truly hope that everyone enjoys themselves. There are pillows and sleeping bags all over our living room and I have to thank you for allowing me to overrun the apartment like this.
I do hope we all have fun.

At least in the superhero gig but that was neither here nor there right now.

Not as badly when I arrived, but... Father works in an aquarium and sometimes I go to visit him, just so I can stand under the tanks and watch the water above me." I'm a little ashamed to admit that, but I feel like it's safe. Like it's something she would understand.

Date: 2013-12-11 03:36 am (UTC)Juno pulled back when Cissie made to move toward her, waving the brush in the air to stop her. "Yeah, well, neither have I. I mean, Bleeker and I wrote songs sometimes, but it wasn't anything like this. Cool. This is going to rock."
