Perk: Early Morning

Fred managed to balance her cup of coffee and a muffin on her binder as she walked through the crowd. She saw some people she sort of knew from the school but did not really approach them. She sat at a round table towards the back. She had left Evie very happily snuggled under the covers but made sure to tell her she was leaving this time and to come meet her if she got up and wanted coffee.

((open to anyone as Fred is basically new to the throng as a character in regular play and most certainly open to

egyptianlove any time))

Maia came in glancing around the coffee shop. She spied Fred in the corner, she had met Fred once at a party. Maia walked over near her. "Hi Fred isn't it?"

Fred took a sip of coffee. "Hey Maia, yep its Fred." Fred nodded and sipped her coffee again. "Wanna sit down?"

Maia smiled and sat, careful not to disturb any of Freds things on the table. She smiled a little nervously at Fred not really knowing what to say. "So how have you been, I really haven't seen you much since the party."

"oh you know" Fred said sipping the coffe again then grabbing a sugar pack to add. "just up to everything and oh hey did you hear about that girl?"

Maia leaned back in her seat her eyes revealing no emotions. "Yeah about Kitty? Yeah I did, sad thing that." Maia shrugged and took a sip of her coffee.

Fred felt a little uneasy about the girls uncaring attitude towards the death of a classmate. "Yeah, it is." Fred said carefully, her jerky movements stopped, she was still surprise by how cold Maia seemed about the events. "Yeah Evie came and found me yesterday, I forgot to tell her I was headed into the park. She was upset about it you know."

((OOC: MUN has no idea if Kitty and Fred were friends.))

"Yeah a lot of people are actually." Maia swung her foot and glanced around for a moment. "They put on a curfew. That is really unfair I think. I like to come down the beach in the mornings you know or sit out in the park late when I cant sleep and I can't do that now."

Fred stared at the girl. the only thing she is pissed at is the curfew.. Fred looked up at the girl, Maia had very dark eyes, they were brown but they actually looked black if you looked close enough. Her pupils were almost indistinguishable from her iris. Fred swallowed, the girl made her uneasy for some reason. Her cold stare was what was doing it. "Uh yeah that is a bit of an inconvience." Fred managed to get out before drinking on her coffee for a long moment.

Maia fixed the girl in her gaze for a moment and cocked her head to one side and smiled. "I'm sorry, really I do sound coldhearted dont I. I just, I dunno, its my coping mechanism to detach from things. Please don't take that as me being uncaring or something." Maia twisted her hands in her lap watching Fred. "I am sorry for the people who knew her and what they must be feeling."

Fred glanced into Maia's eyes again after looking away. "No it's fine, everyone has their own ways of dealing you know."

Maia nodded not saying anything really. She sipped her coffee for a few minutes then finally as she got to the bottom of her cup she stood. "I need to get going. I want to walk down by the beach before class."

"Oh yeah sure" Fred waved her off in a polite way. "It was nice talking to you again Maia." Fred smiled warmly at the girl.

Maia nodded and took her cup over to the barrista, she came back over to get her bag. "Have a good day. It was nice talking to you too" Maia headed out the door towards the beach.

Allison comes in to get some coffee before she goes home and opens up her business for the day. She waves at Fred.

Fred sees her waving, glancing quickly she realizes it is directed at her and she grins and waves back. Gesturing the woman over Fred addes a sugar pack to her coffee and stirs it.

Allison pays for her coffee and walks over to Fred.

Fred finishing stiring the coffee. "Hi I'm Winifred Burkle, well Fred actually." Fred extends her hand to Allison

"Allison Dubois." Allison says, noting Fred's southern accent much like a bit of her own. "I'm from Arizona."

"Texas." She says taking another drink of her coffee. "What brings you all the way to Virginia?"

"Had to leave, my...family...they were in danger." Allison says, sadly.

Fred stopped her cup halfway to her mouth and stared. "Um, wow that is just really not good. Why were they in danger?"

"My ability..." Allison tells her. "I'm a medium."

"Your a fortune teller?" Fred now sipped her coffee.

"Ummm well it's a bit more complicated than that." Allison tells her "I see thigns, talk to dead people, that sort of thing."

"Oh. Your one of those psychics." Fred nods. "I met a couple of them from the school." Fred relaxes and sips her coffee again. "Hey you know about that girl that has gone missing? They think she is dead. Can you talk to her?"

"Maybe I can see her...in a dream, but no one dead from here has contacted me.." Allison tells her. "I am sorry to hear about that, though."

Fred shook her head. "Yeah my girlfriend came and found me yesterday and told me." Shakes her head again. "She was so worried when she couldn't find me. I made sure I woke her up this morning to tell her I was here. Man that is just messed up, having a student murdered. You think that this school and the area around it would be safe from things like that happening." Fred grabs another sugar pack to add to her coffee, shaking her head Fred stirs the sugar into her coffee quickly and takes a sip.

"I have three young daughters and I am so glad they aren't here for this."

"Oh wow yeah, I can imagine. I mean I just have Evie and you know part of me just wants to grab her up and leave." Fred shakes her head. "there are no safe places anymore."

Allison nods. She isn't sure what to think about all of this. It makes her feel cold.

Fred drawns her feet up into the chair not wanting to think about her and Evie's world being unsafe and decides to move to other topics. "Do you like the town so far?" It seemed a safe enough question to ask.

"It seems okay." Allison says. "I havent left the house much."

"Why not? There's loads to do here, well the beach is nice anyway." Fred smiles

"Just been setting up and all that." she says. "i'll be out and about more."

"Well I look forward to seeing you around town then." Fred stands up. "I have to run, I have to finish up my physics homework before class tomorrow." Fred extends her hand again. "It was great to meet you Allison."

"You too." Allison says and shakes her hand before she leaves also
