[ Too bad no one invented smello-vision, or this transmission would be a whole lot more attention catching. Charlotte lets the camera pan over her kitchen table that is practically overladen with an assortment of pies: full size and cup, three-plum and pear with gruyere. Maybe she got some of Ned's stress baking or maybe prison life is just a little too boring today. ]

So... I think I went just a little bit overboard. I was supposed to bake some pies for a friend, but I guess she's not here anymore... at least, I haven't seen her around. [ A quiet thought to Dawn, one of her first friends and also the first to go. ] Either way, I have a lot more pie than I need.

Anyone want a slice? I'm in Apartment [ Number ] in Sector 4. I'll keep the door open — just follow the smell!

	[ A hum and a nod. That does sound good. She has a lot of catching up to do. ] I was homeschooled so there wasn't that many chances for socialising... and after I quit school, I stayed home to take care of my aunts. It's kind of nice to be around so many people, actually! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Homeschooled; I always wondered what that would be like. I'm still at highschool back home and I'm gonna be graduating soon. [ Provided she got home of course. ] You lived with your aunts back home? It's just me and my dad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I did — I never knew my mom and my dad died when I was eight. After that, I lived with my aunts. Just the three of us. It was nice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. My mom left us but I have seen her since and I think we've managed to reconcile. [There are a whole lot more to the story but she's not getting into it right now.] I spent a lot of time with my Grams too. She passed away over a year ago. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm so sorry... it's never easy, losing family. [ Quietly. Despite being the one who died, she lost the most that day. It's been so hard to watch and know that you can't go back home. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It isn't. You can try to be prepared for it but I really don't think that works. [ Bonnie is just as quiet, understanding the pain she's gone through, knowing that it always seemed to stay with you no matter how much time has passed. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ A sad little sigh. This is not a subject she cares to linger on. Not with what she'd just found out back home. ] So... how about that pie? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	medeis 2013-11-13 05:31 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. We could use the pie. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What kind would you want? I can set some aside for you! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Banana cream please. I like the sound of that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sure thing! Just follow the smell and come on over! I'll get some coffee brewing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	----> action or handwave? medeis 2013-11-16 01:16 pm UTC (link)
	I'll see you soon. [With a grin she ends the feed.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
