imaginationswoes[Running is the current plan but it isn't going well. She's constantly getting lost and she's reminded again and again that she's never been out of her small town alone. She misses her family and her friends but more than that she is really missing a warm bed. Her feet continue forward, the tall buildings towering on either side of her. It's impressive, as far as cities go, but its to close together.
To much can go wrong.
She must of made a wrong turn because Airy finds herself walking along a very shady part of town. Winter is setting in but she thinks of warmth and she manages to keep herself heated. She has a backpack around her shoulders and it looks like she's wearing a uniform: white button down, green pleated skirt, black jacket and a matching tie. It's most definitely giving some of the people here the wrong idea.]
Shit.
[Airy whispers softly under her breath, a puff of white leaving her warm lips. When she spots two men pointing towards her she runs. Her feet fly across the street and she's about 75% sure they weren't following her. Mist descends on the area and Airy one again curses under her breath. She's only getting more lost at this rate and running around New York after midnight isn't on her to do list.]

The next morning
Date: 2016-01-16 04:33 am (UTC)Then I went to college in LA, thought I'd be a big actor. Turns out it's a pretty cut throat business.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-16 04:48 am (UTC)She kept her eyes outside the window watching whatever she could pull her gaze to.]
I'm glad you aren't cut throat like that.
[because she likes him like this.]
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-16 04:50 am (UTC)Yeah, well. So, I came home and tried to get into the theater scene. Turns out it's pretty cut throat, too.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-16 04:55 am (UTC)So what did you do next?
[He became an actor or at least she thought so.]
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-16 04:59 am (UTC)[He glances over to her, smiles again, and shrugs, looking back at the road.]
That's where I met Tony, actually.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-16 05:06 am (UTC)Guess he was looking for himself.
[Which sounds funny.]
What did your parents think about acting?
[She's pretty sure her parents would be very against the idea. Then again they didn't seem to mind her running away from home.]
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-16 07:16 am (UTC)The next morning
Date: 2016-01-16 02:42 pm (UTC)A lawyer... that sounds so... stuffy.
[She can tell that she's dipped into a sensitive topic but she isn't sure how to make their conversation more light hearted. She leaned forward slightly looking out the front windshield.]
You know... I think that makes the fact that you followed your dream even more impressive. It's hard enough to do but you did it on your own. [She looks over with a wide smile.] That's pretty great.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-17 07:18 am (UTC)[He raises an eyebrow at that.] Impressive, huh? Sometimes I wonder if I didn't do it just to spite him.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 12:41 am (UTC)Impressive. Promise
[She smiles at him before looking towards the path in front of the car.]
Sometimes reasons are crazy but you still did it and... I do a lot of stuff out of spite. [Airy is the type of person who does things just because people say she can't. It isn't a bad thing, only a different for of motivation.]
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 01:49 am (UTC)They all said I'd never make it. [He shrugs.] I guess in a way, they were right, but I guess I never crawled home like dad said I would, so there's that.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 01:53 am (UTC)That's always a plus.
[She pauses for a moment.]
I ran away from home...
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 01:57 am (UTC)Why'd you run away from home?
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 02:06 am (UTC)I didn't want to hurt anyone... figured it was better if I didn't exist.
[She really wishes they were there though that wouldn't really stop the conversation.]
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 02:51 am (UTC)You know, so far, the only person I've seen you hurt is yourself.
[He doesn't say anything for a moment, just letting the sound of the road pass.]
Did you? Hurt anyone, I mean.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 02:57 am (UTC)No but they haven't come to look for me so they probably don't miss me.
[As far as she's concerned the conversation is over and she can't even remember where they were going.]
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 03:03 am (UTC)How long have you been gone?
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-18 03:06 am (UTC)A few weeks.
[She doesn't like lying.
Airy let out a soft breath of hair before looking at Nathan with a hopeful gaze.]
Can we talk about something else? I don't want to talk about home... What about favorite animals, colors or awkward experiences?
[If they are heading towards a Zoo.]
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-19 08:27 am (UTC)Uh, sure. Favorite animal, huh? [He shrugs, looking thoughtful.] Okay, I have different favorite animals. It depends on what they do. You first.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-19 01:14 pm (UTC)[She looks over at him with a quick glance.]
Now you.
[Of course she's left out the why of her choices but that doesn't seem important.]
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-20 03:13 am (UTC)Eventually he pulls into the garage, takes the ticket from the booth and goes about finding a parking space, but looks over to her for a moment.]
Okay. I think I get the wombat and the otter. They're cute. Why a stag?
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-20 03:16 am (UTC)Stags are large, proud and strong creatures. They protect those they care about and are very fierce while remaining cautious and kind.
They're pretty great.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-20 03:25 am (UTC)Wow. That's a lot to live up to.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-20 03:27 am (UTC)[She quickly removes herself from the car and peers over the roof.]
What's that mean? [She pouts slightly.] And you didn't tell me your favorite animals.
The next morning
Date: 2016-01-20 03:33 am (UTC)[He clears his throat.]
Fennec foxes and...mountain goats.
