My daughter has decided to remind me that I've become antisocial again.

To those who are new, or not so new, my name is Shannon Rogers. I am Kat's Mother. And Loki's human

So, Hi, hello. I'm not very good at the whole socializing thing.

I'm fine. Do you want some tea or coffee?

Hey.

I'm not very good at that either.

Usually I prefer reading or flying or sitting quietly in a room, letting my imagination take flight.

What's your name?

Jane. You can fly?

I'm pleased to meet you Jane. When I'm a dragon, I can fly very well.

A dragon?

Yes. I have a dragon in my ancestors. Some people have very different tastes when it comes to mates.

But you know there's a Mother and a Father involved, right?

Yes.

Okay. Well we get a little bit from each parent, depending on which traits are stronger. One of the Mothers, or Fathers, of my mother or father, had been a dragon. They would have had to be human like at one point in time, because the other was human.

Does that clear it up at all? Or just confuse you more?

Are you a dragon like the ones in the Dungeons and Dragons books?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]shannon_rogers

Kind of? It's been ages since I read one of those manuals. I can be as small as a horse, or as big as... Have you read the Lord of the Rings? Or the Hobbit?

No.

They are good books, if you like Dungeons and Dragons you might like them. There is a dragon in the Hobbit, he is supposed to be very big, and I can match his size.

I'll meet you in the food court, for lunch and some tea.

I'll do this, I'll go and sit in the food court at lunchtime every day, until you're able to join me.

Hello Astrid. Is your family encouraging you to be social too?

Hello Shannon, I am Gen. I am your granddaughter's friend. I don't think I have seen you around so far. I am not very good at the socializing thing either.

No, you wouldn't have. I gravitate toward the reclusive life.

I've mostly stuck to the people from my timeline. The last time I tried to make a new friend, he vanished soon after. It hurts, you know. But I'm trying again. I don't want to be a prisoner of my fear.

I'm sorry. That is the part that sucks about being born here. You're used to people leaving. It's half the reason I was a recluse.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]blacktwin
2019-11-23 11:36 pm UTC (link)
I'm sorry too. There have been too many funerals again. If you get close to people, they might leave you. But without them days only seem so grey. I don't know what I would do without Lucy and Rachel.

I forget what it was like without Loki, or Kat. I'm right there with you. I haven't been on the station that long, well, probably as long as everybody else, but it's getting to where I don't remember what it felt like on the island without the family that's grown around me.

Me too. I'm afraid to go back at times. It's another of the reasons I've been so reluctant. What if I get sent back? They say people get sent back. Will my friends be there or will they stay here?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]shannon_rogers
2019-11-24 12:03 pm UTC (link)
I don't know, that's a good question. Maybe we're like the people who aren't born here? It'll seem like we were in some sort of stasis. Because some of us come at different times, and they only know we leapt because we're here too.

I'm hoping if we do, that we go back with the knowledge and power we gained here, so we can make a difference.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]blacktwin
2019-11-24 02:08 pm UTC (link)
We do and no one ever says that someone vanished. But I really don't know.

I'm thinking about trying to go back. Not permanently, just to help the ones who are still there. I'm terrified but I want to change things.

[info]shannon_rogers

Instead, we die.

Is that wise? What if you can't get back? This timeline is forever changing from ours, there are possibly millions of paradoxes. Yours is vastly different from mine.

[info]blacktwin

I already came back in time and what we told people changed the timeline. Even after the course was set differently, people from my timeline still arrived. I don't know if it is a good idea. What would you do if you had left your family behind trapped in an awful, awful situation?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]shannon_rogers
2019-11-25 04:18 am UTC (link)
I don't know. It's hard for me to say, because the Loki that is there is... very different from the one here. I know I would want to get back to them, I think. But are you willing to leave your family here?

Oh my god, Mum. Look at you talking to people. Very proud daughter moment over here.
