I'm craving something odd but here it goes.
Our characters are on the low end of the totem pole. Welfare, food stamps the works, two kids and no education past high school and/or dropouts. My character works at a convince store, generally beloved by most as indicated by all the phone numbers she gets from incoming customers but nothing comes of it. Taking home out of date merchendize to help supplement the food intake. With two kids at home.
He is a dropout living together with her and share one out of the two children they have together. A damn good mechanic despite not having a formal education, accepts that where she works but is extremely jealous. Accepts her other child but is on edge when the father comes to pick her/him up for the weekend visit. Living life day to day in poverty though also being severe potheads.
Anyone game?
