WHEN: The afternoon following Alexander's disappearance.
WHERE: Around 3PM
RATING: TBD
STATUS: In Progress
Having grown irritated with the message boards and their significant lack of people who really understand what she was going through, Delia had decided to leave Thorn Mansion for a little while to clear her mind. As always, she had her hound Atticus at her side, and the beast made good company for the sullen girl as she trudged her way through the woods and to the small path that led to one of the parks nestled within the city.
A half an hour or so into her trek and she finally came upon a stretch of shops that had caught her eye once before. There was a toy store - one of those fancy ones that offered 'games for the mind' and other interesting items - and Delia couldn't help but peer in the windows at the various items on display. Next she bought an ice cream from the shop beside the toy store and then she moved to the curb, solemnly licking the chocolate droplets away before they could splash onto her shirt and using her free hand to hold a cone of plain vanilla for Atticus to enjoy.
To the casual observer, Delia would seem like any other normal child her age. Simply eating an ice cream in the afternoon sun with her dog at her side. However, anyone who looked close enough would realize that the little girl was far too serious looking for a situation such as this, and anyone who looked closer than that would also note that the gleam in her eye as she peered at the world around her was anything but wonder. In fact, she looked almost as though she were passing judgment on the world as a whole... and had already found them all guilty.
