32nd Resurrection

[GUESS WHO IS ALSO WEE TODAY

It's Theo! And he's been regressed to about age 8. He's wandering about town positively *terrified*. Coming from 1937 with no memories of Mayfield, this place is pretty weird and scary. Little Theo is a bit skittish and a crybaby, so you'll see a small, almost malnourished-looking little boy darting all over town. The red hair, freckles, and large piercing blue eyes might seem familiar to some. He'll be hiding behind shrubs and mailboxes, peering at the passersby, sniffling and muttering to himself. Take care if you approach, or you might scare him off!]

I've seen lots. But they're acting funny.

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

...Funny?

[sanctuspuer.livejournal.com]

They all... look the same, don't they?

[He points at a pair of blank-faced drones passing by on the other side of the street.]

They're kinda scary.

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

[She watches them curiously for a moment, then moves to try to take Theo's arm.]

Yeah...that is scary...

[sanctuspuer.livejournal.com]

[When you try that, he jumps back, startled.]

Ah! Wh-what?

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

[She reaches out for him, giving him a rather pathetic expression.]

If we stay together, we'll be safe.

[sanctuspuer.livejournal.com]

I-I guess, yeah... [He shifts a bit uncomfortably in place, unsure of what to do.] Um, what's your name? I'm Theo.

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

Elizabeθ Buckley. ...What's the rest of your name?

[sanctuspuer.livejournal.com]

Um.... Crawford. Theodore Crawford.

...Are you from England?

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh. It's nice to meet you, Mr. Crawford. [So prim and proper.]

[sanctuspuer.livejournal.com]

[He nods. Street urchins don't have much in the way of manners though.]

I thought so. My dad's from England. You sound like him.

Do you remember how you got here?

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

[She shakes her head quietly, but slowly moves closer to him.]

I just woke up here. ...It was scary where I woke up.

[sanctuspuer.livejournal.com]

I just woke up in a house. I left pretty fast though. But then I got lost cuz all these streets and houses look exactly the same.

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

...Don't worry. I'll help you find your way. [And she offers her hand to him, trying not to spook him this time.]

[sanctuspuer.livejournal.com]

[He bites his lip for a moment, but ultimately gives in. Lightly, he takes her hand.]

O-Okay.

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

[She squeezes his hand, trying to comfort him, and gives him a cheery smile.]

Let's find a grown up. They know what to do.

[sanctuspuer.livejournal.com]

Maybe we can find one who isn't acting funny.

[lined-circle.livejournal.com]

Yeah... We'll do it! I know we'll be okay.
