Hi im Danni! (Open)

Lila
Sapphire lets go of Jason and I want to run and help him. I can't, though, and I know it. I'm too small to provide any kind of support to him. I am realived when he stands his ground with only Aura to help him.

I may not be able to help Jason, but hopefully I can help Sapphire. I crouch down and put her hand in mine. I don't say anything. I hope the warmth of my hand can provide the same comfort to her than Squirrel's does for me.

"Hey, Sap," Jason says. "You don't have to cry so much; I'm not dead--yet," His tone is light and jokeing but that scares me. Yet.

He talks some more trying to convince Sapphire to help him and trying to cheer her up. But I can't completely focus on them. Yet. Not dead yet. Not dead. Dead. Those are all the words I can hear. They ring, loud and clear in my ears. That only frightens me more. It's almost as if my slightly burned ears can remember that night. I'm not dead. Not yet. But I soon could be.

(OOC: By the way, Sapp, I love your sig!)
Lila
When Sapphire says, "It's time I told you everything about me." My breath catchs in my throat. Scentences like these are never followed by good things. I don't know what I thought I was going to hear but what she says next isn't that. "Yes, my father is rich and is high up in the ranks, but hes an alcoholic. Yes, I have 7 brothers and sisters, but I have to take care of them all. My father goes to work sober then comes home and gets drunk."

I don't know what to say. I have had my fair share of hardships but I can't say that I've ever expirenced anything like that. I don't know what words will comfort her. I don't know if any thing I can say will. So I just lean in closer, hug her tight, and whisper, "I love you."

I haven't known her long but already I can feel this connection to Sapphire. To all my new friends. I just want her to be happy.

(ooc: you guys amaze me, you rp ninjas)

I am silent as the scene unfolds, Aura help Jason up and Sapphire rushes forward to help him, after a moment she collapses to the ground, sobbing. I feel move forward to comfort her, but Jason is way ahead of me.
"You don't have to cry so much; I'm not dead--yet," he say with a chuckle. "Come along and help me and I"ll be back in a few days," His voice is calm and light, despite the fact that he must be in extreme pain. Every now and then I see his eyes fliker down to his leg and he catches his breath, "Anyway, things happen to people all the time. I'm no different from anyone else. We live in a dangerous District. So we just got to tighten our belts, lift our chins, stand straight, and deal with it. Besides, the sooner you get me home, the sooner you can be back, and the more hours you put in, the more you'll make for your family." Jason's right and I make an effort to stand up straight. I begin to move forward, to help Jason, but Sapphire says something that stops me.
"It's time I told you everything about me," uh-oh, "Yes, my father is rich and is high up in the ranks, but hes an alcoholic. Yes, I have 7 brothers and sisters, but I have to take care of them all. My father goes to work sober then comes home and gets drunk." I feel so bad for Sapphire and immediatley feel bad for ever being angry or feeling let down by my family. Lila gives Sapphire a huge hug and Jason smiles again, patting Sapphire on the back.
"Aww Sap. I'm never going to judge you for what your dad does. I'm seeing you as you. How is it, caring for all seven? How can you keep track of so many?" Envy rises up inside of me when Jason rises up to be the comforting friend. He is so, good. I glance at the ground, burying my feelings, and I step up to Sapphire patting her on the back.
"I totally agree with Jason, I have several siblings but they always had to keep track of me," I say jokingly, I leave my hand on Sapphire's back in a friendly I-am-always-here-for-you kind of way, "Alright, now let's get moving, Jason is gonna be so slow it'll be hours before we get him home," I smile a Jason, hoping he thinks my joke is funny and not rude. Being inapropriate would not help me feel like less of an outsider. I notice Lila, and lean over to her.
"You okay? I know Jason's your friend,"

(ooc: sorry about the length.)

Sapphire is gone so quickly I barely have time to look up at her trail of dust. Someone helps Jason hobble home and I am left alone. I watch them go, holding strong until they are out of sight. As Jason's hair dissapears I feel the weight of the day come crashing down on me. I collapse onto my knees and curl into a ball on the ground. The only reason everyone today went home happy, or well not dead, was because of other people. Aura saved Jason, with her learned medical skills, Sapphire bought us time from the peacekeepers and Lila and Aura saved all our skins with their quick lies. I did nothing, because I was scared, I was a scared little boy and I couldn't even help my friends. I am younger than most of the others I think but I have still been working in the orchards longer, I should be used to injuries, to pain. I lie on the ground for what feels like forever, lightly touching the scars on my arm, thinking and worrying. It is black out when someone finally comes to look for me, they call my voice out into the darkness. After a moment I sigh and get to my feet, brushing the dirt off my pants.
"There you are! Do you have any idea how worried Mom and Father were?" A loud female voice cries from behind me and I nearly jump out of my skin. I turn around, rolling my eyes. It's Dana, my second oldest and most annoying sister. She is also probably the prettiest of my sisters, but don't tell her that. She has long, aurburn hair and wide green eyes. She is tall and thin and beautiful, my complete opposite. Just like my whole family, more lovely and handsome than me. I shake off my insecurities and stick my tongue out at Dana.
"Yeah, I bet, if I wasn't there noone would cook and you would all starve to death!" I tease, nudging her shoulder gently. Dana sniffs and straigtens her back.
"It would be rather unladylike to pound you into the dirt, so I wouldn't try to bother me right now," She says. I chuckle and follow her home. At home I whip up a quick soup dinner and we all eat. The others talk and joke but I remain silent. I do not tell them of todays events. After dinner I go up to my room and lay down on my bed, waiting for morning, all the while stroking the ridges on my arms.
