"Welcome." I say letting him go.
OOC- So hows your weekend?

"Can I ask what brought that on?"
OOC - Pretty good actually. And yours?

"I have no idea...mood swing?"
OOC-It was really nice out yesterday so it was slow at work and I got out early...then I went to my little cousin's birthday party and then hung out with friends got yelled at by my parents.

"That would explain it."
OOC - Sounds fun. Apart from the being yelled at part. Upside of having no parents I guess, means I never piss them off. Although I think Mum's coming back soon. I don't know. If she does Mika will have to move out and things'll get worse again with her probably, but Holly won't get taken away. I don't know if I want her back or not.

"Damn these moodswings."
OOC- well there is always that good and bad side to parents all I know is the bad side.

"They're not too bad sometimes, I just don't like it when you start crying."
OOC - I have no idea what it's like to have a dad. But yeah, I know the badside of having a mum. I can imagine what it's like to have good parents, but I have no idea if I'm right or not. I just try my best to me mum/dad/brother and if I'm failing miserably then I have no problem with Holly turning round and saying 'it's his fault I grew up wrong' because it would be.

"Sorry really can't control it."
OOC-Well with my parents they're nice to people but i never really grew up to be like them i became some one else, so i kinda believe the existential side of life where it's my fault no one elses.

"It's alright. I can handle it. Most of the time."
OOC - I don't see how it's your fault if you're just a different person. You can't be blamed for that. My mum hates me because I'm 'so like my worthless father' or something, I don't really pay much attention when she's ranting because she's normally drunk off her ass.

"Good at least one of us can."
OOC- Existentialism is a process of thinking that, there is no such thing as fate, god, or whatever, it's that you picked a path and you have to live with the consecquences....I like it because no one is to blame.
I don't pay attention to my parents and they're sober.

Post by Remus Lupin on May 6, 2007 15:26:12 GMT
"It helps I guess."
OOC - Yeah, blaming no one has got to be better for a person, than if they blame themselves or other people. That sucks. I suppose parents saying things when they're sober's got to hurt more.

"Yes, because you're my brain when I can't function."
OOC- Not really unless they catch me off guard, like one day I ate dinner with them and then i hear , 'sarah you need to cut down on food.' when I was eating at least a quarter amount of food then they were and I didn't eat earlier that day.
i loved it when my mom actually called me cold

"That can't be good."
OOC - Sounds bad. At least I don't have to put up with mine at the moment. The worst thing I can remember about my mum is having to hide under the desk in my room with Holly when Holly was really little. That was awful. Having to protect Holly when I couldn't even protect myself. And Holly turned around and asked why I had ketchup on my head. That's the worst thing that ever happened because of mum. But she's supposedly sober again now she's been in rehab for a year.

"That you're my brain?"
OOC- sometimes it takes longer than that to be sober, but i know how you feel. When I was a kid my parents used to hit all of us and i could always hear it happen...scares the shit out of me.

Post by Remus Lupin on May 6, 2007 16:27:47 GMT
"Yeah, mine doesn't work too well, just so you know."
OOC - I know, that's why I'm half-hoping she doesn't come back, in case she's not sober again yet. She only ever hit me. I'm glad about that. She can hit me all she likes, well, I'd rather she didn't obviously, but she can hit me and I'll take it. But if she ever turns on Holly then I'm taking her away. I don't care what any social service person says, I'm taking Holly away with me. Scares the shit out of me too.

"I know but when you don't function I'm your brain."
OOC- Hence why I don't want to be here that much. They stopped because they are shorter than all of us now and i threaten to leave and they're scared.

"What if neither of us our functioning at the same time?"
OOC - I'd leave if I were you. I don't think I can ever forgive my mum so if she comes back I'm most likely out of here, unless I somehow get the guts to stay for Holly's sake. You're a better person than I am if you can stay.

"Then Lily would be."
OOC- Well I think my parents had the idea that it's a bad thing and actually got smart and stopped. I would stay for a sibling if they were getting hurt, if she does hurt Holly, that gives you every right to fight her back. Fuck her for giving you life and then beating the shit out of you. You don't have to take that and you have to fight back just don't kill her.

"Oh yeah, Lily's good at that sort of thing."
OOC - I can't fight back though. I was bigger and stronger than her when I was about 11 but I can't fight back because she's my mum, and she's a she for another thing and I can not hit a woman (sounds sexist but I just can't do it) not to mention I know I could really hurt her if I did fight back. I'm really tempted to just say fuck social services and take Holly away anyway.

"That's why I picked her."
OOC- Just do what ever is best, just don't stand by and watch.

Post by Remus Lupin on May 7, 2007 15:28:19 GMT
"Good choice then."
OOC - No, I'm not going to stand by and watch. I think I'm going to get a new place, and apply for the rights to be Holly's legal guardian on the grounds that mum's an unfit parent. That's got to work, hopefully.

Post by Rin Lupin on May 7, 2007 15:40:01 GMT
"Of course I could have picked Sirius or something."
OOC- Yeah just try to get a job while you're at it because if you try to apply rights with no source of income then the might deny you the rights.

"Then there would be no hope for either of us. He got drunk and convinced himself he was a pirate the other day. Then tried to convince me that I was too."
OOC - Yeah, I'll need a job. But hopefully, if I get one, they won't say I can't, will they?

"Did he go Yarrr..I am a pirate?"
OOC-In the states legal system if you have no money to take care of their needs, and the other party is surely unfit...they might put the child in a third party area 'foster home' or something to that affect, but it also shows that you are unfit as well if you cannot provide for the child you're claiming rights to. So forth your age may be a factor because you are so young they aren't sure that you may handle taking care of a child at such a young age...but that's my opinion on it and a lawyer's stand point...does that make sense?

"No, but he was making pirate hats and going on about firewhiskey being treasure and he tried to make a sail out of a bedsheet. Oh and he was singing 'yo ho a pirates life for me' or something to that effect."
OOC - It does make sense, yes. I don't whether to risk it or not. I don't think either of us should stay home with mum coming back, but I don't want to risk losing her because of my age.

I laugh, "Interesting."
OOC- I'll tell you the nerdy thing to do which you might not like....research cases that are kind of related to you, a custody case that involve some one close to your age and see if it was won, because you could use the same grounds in court, there are a lot of things like that in the US, but I don't know if your court system is like ours. Then get a job try to save as much as you can to show you have a stable income and life and then argue your ass off for her. Oh if you live near an air port try to get a job at a coffee place, they pay really well in tips and you don't have to be nice to them if you're on the bar.

"Disturbing. Apparently, I'm a killjoy who uses too many big words."
OOC - I have 2 free periods tomorrow, I'll start researching then. Thanks so much for helping me with this. I'd have been buggered if it weren't for you. Now hopefully I have a chance.
