Addie hopped of the metro line as the cool brisk air hit her face. Snow hadn't quite melted yet, but at least it wasn't as cold as it used to be. This winter was the worst thing she had to get used to moving out here. For the most part, everything else seemed to fall into place. She grew up a city girl, so should she really be surprised?
The small flat she called home, wasn't in the best neighborhood, but growing up in foster care (and 2 years of kickboxing, didn't have her worried), and usually there wasn't a situation she couldn't at least try to talk her way out of. She happened to be very charming. Her foster mom, Helen, wanted her to be a lawyer. The law of this world, just didn't seem like her place. Nothing ever seemed like her place.
Although the routine she had maintained since she started school at the Art Institute of grabbing Russian Pierogi at Makarov's before she headed home after shooting or classes, had helped her feel a little more normal. So she wandered into the far from decadent, but still respectable joint she had come to love. Her Pentax K1000 in hand.
"Hey Rufka," She said to the familiar woman behind the counter.
"You can just call me Ruth, you know"
She smiled and handed her the exact amount of cash for what she knew I was about to order. "Does using the Russian pronunciation over-do it?"
"Just a bit," The woman handed Addie the receipt and added "I'll have it out to you in a bit, your usual seat is still available."
She gestured to the corner window table, and Addie sat down in it a smile perked on her face. Maybe this was the right move for me.

Biography [Please Be Detailed.] Adelaide, was born in Chicago, IL. Her mom moved her out of state to California when things started getting crazy years ago. She has few memories of her early life with her mom, as her mom died when she was three (in a freak accident cause by an electrical fire), just over a year after moving to San Francisco. Addie, was placed in the foster system. In her teen years things were relatively easy, she just seemed to know how to please people, and get people to help her out. Though sometimes, she learned all too fast, what you think you want isn't the greatest. In late high school she fell in love with analog photography, (tried digital, but technology doesn't really agree with her most of the time) and decided to attend Art Institute in Chicago, she tried to convince herself, not to find out the truth about her father. Or why her mother was so desperate to leave, sometimes the truth just has a way of catching up with you.

Well least you're honest about your sociopathic tendencies. Welcome to the Asylum.
This was an asylum! Oh goody, do you have a straight jacket and a small room for me i just love those, and that shot in the ass is quite nice right before bed.
Welcome to the guild, it's nice to see another fan of character development and sci-fi around here. You can never have too many of those!
I feel like that's a bit of sarcasm but I take the compliment to heart either way.

Hey guys. My name is Ekko, I've always wanted to be an active member of an online play by post rolplaying community but never had the time to do so, now I find that I do. I'm a photographer, gamer, writer, and overall nerd and slightly sociopathic. My favorite genres would be anything that is a good story, I'm all about character development but you probably will find me around science fiction, fantasy, or adventure plots more than others.
