Wow, I've made it to fifteen!

[lawrsong]

Honestly, I wasn't sure too sure I'd survive this long. I've been dangled over the cliff, so to speak, enough times that I've been expecting to be pushed over by now. But it's safer here, and I find myself actually happy about my birthday, for some reason. For my last I just felt depressed. I'm even planning to celebrate. I want to go to a club, if

I used to leave in LA when I was younger. Sometimes I miss it too, getting lost was relieving.

Happy Birthday, by the way.

[lawrsong]

It's cathartic, having some kind of escapism. Sometimes I just need to feel normal.

[shatteredwoman]

Don't you feel normal?

[OOC: Ghdfasjd ‘leave’ was meant to be ‘live’. I’m so stupid OTL]

[lawrsong]

(OOC I thought you meant "leave" metaphorically, so it made sense to me.)

Here my life almost feels normal, in this place where laws barely exist, but I realise this life is completely abnormal. Where I was, teens lived at home, went to school, and worried about things like grades and asking girls out. I like to remind myself I'm not completely alienated from that world. I'm not an adult, despite living like one, and I want to feel my real age sometimes.

Fifteen? I remember how the streets of LA looked when I was that age.

If you haven't had any luck hooking yourself up with a club, I know for a fact that this city has them. I can give you some directions, at least.

And you're a bit younger than I thought you were, but- I know that age doesn't reflect on experience. I got into Rod Loss's group when I only a little bit older than you are now.

[[ooc: SORRY THIS IS SO BELATED /XD;; I feel like i could play all night and day and never interact as much as Mello ICly would-! ALSO Mello's trying to be honest with Lawr about things since he's still planning on keeping him arouns as an ally/useful person/friendly acquaintance etc. if that's cool /;-;]]

[lawrsong]

(OOC It's one day late, hardly worthy of panic caps! Relax. And I think it'd be great if Lawr could be an ally. I'm sure he'd like that.)

When I was that age? And how long ago was that, Grandpa? In the rum runner days?

[Private to Mello II Unhackable]
Seems everyone I've spoken to is surprised by my youth, and further surprised I have nearly two years work experience under my belt. I can't say I wanted it this way, but it's at least matured me and given me some interesting stories. It's impossible to escape LA without a few of those.

And please, point me to some clubs. I didn't want to spend all night searching for the right one, so I spent yesterday evening exploring downtown and wasting a bit of money instead.

[manslaughterer]

Four years, kid. I'm hardly your grandpa!

[ Private to Lawrence | Unhackable ]

People too often underestimate exactly what the will to survive will make you do. Don't worry - I'm only surprised at your age because you seem very shrewd, and I'm used to that being a pretty rare find outside of the place where I grew up.

As far as clubs, there are a few in the Downtown area near where Ginza used to be. I haven't been much for partying in places like that since I got here, but my room mate's a drug dealer and they have to work the club scene often enough.

[lawrsong]

Now you call me kid? You're failing to prove your youth.

[Private to Mello I Unhackable]
Thank you, I'll be sure to look around there. I'm hardly a clubber but once or twice a month it's nice to let go and not feel like a commodity.
