I can take over the character if that's alright, though my posts of her would be of about 1/100th the quality of Rusalka's work of art posts. Is that a thing I can do?

Cooper went back to her crew and finished up the wiring on the screen. When the schedule finally appeared on it, a businessman on the platform snorted rudely and said, "It's about time." Cooper was at about the end of her rope, and if she wasn't so looking forward to seeing her friends, she may have snapped right then and there on him, but she remained the bigger person and quietly helped her crew clean up their tools and leave the station. When the others left back to the warehouse on the handcart, Cooper headed to Max's shop to find the others.

@Framing A Moose Cooper looked over to Lila and laughed. Some things - or rather, some people - never change. "Lila, it's so nice to see you again, but I have work to do right now. I was just telling Marcella that we should all meet up in a bit at Max's shop."

I guess someone is going to have to take over that character; she and her family are kind of an integral part of the story now, it's not like we can just drop her, unless we retcon the whole thing and make a new character(s) to fill that role.

@Rusalka Hope to see you around, dude!

@Fubsy "Lila's here? I haven't seen her since graduation!" Cooper exclaimed. She sighed happily and looked back at her crew, who were clearly trying to signal for her return without verbally interrupting what was clearly a tender moment. She smiled and rolled her eyes as she looked back at the beautiful Marcella. "The guys need me, we're just finishing up this job. How about we meet up back at Max's shop?"

this organization controls all law enforcement

@Dmessenger

That's one hell of a conspiracy.

@Framing A Moose Glad you're okay, dude :D welcome back!

Cooper flinched at the voice and looked around. That couldn't be... could it? She stood up and nearly lost her breath when she saw her dear friend Marcella. An overjoyed smile crept across her face as she raced towards her, catching her in a tight hug. "Marcella! I can't believe it's you!" She exclaimed as she pulled away to look at her. Marcella looked just as tired and stressed as Cooper did. "How are you? What brings you here?"

I think @Framing A Moose fell off the Earth :p hopefully everything is okay with her.

A train arrived at the platform and took the annoying passengers away so that the crew could work in peace. Cooper decided to leave for a moment so that she could have a quick break. She walked outside to the station entrance and leaned against the wall, staring absently at the sky. Looks like rain, Cooper thought as she sank down to the floor. Cooper often wondered if she was doing anything at all for her people, or even for her family. Sure, the extra income was good for all of them, but they were still living in squalor and were still among the most despised people in the country. Nothing had changed; if anything, it was getting worse by the day. The most bigoted, dogmatic man in the city was running for office, and the only person from school that she hadn't lost contact with was Maxwell. She didn't blame the others for forgetting them, if that was the case; it couldn't be easy to get to this part of town and socialize with these kind of people without losing all social standing. She sighed heavily; it was just one of those days.
