makes_you_tickThe Gray family was always a little wrong. Okay, a lot wrong. My father, Samson Gray, was a murderer. He was afflicted with the 'gift' of knowing only a little, having only a little, and being aware of how much he was missing. He'd kill people for their abilities. When I was five, he sold me for cash to my aunt and uncle, then walked outside and murdered my mother. He used telekinesis, opening her head up like a ripe orange before he pushed her out of the car, leaving her in that dusty parking lot. It's the only time I can remember seeing my mother's face, that shocked expression...
My uncle had never wanted a child, so he left two weeks later. The old out-for-a-cigarette routine. He never came back. My aunt raised me as her own, never telling me the truth. I wonder sometimes if she always expected me to become a monster, like my dad. But she was still always there for me, up until the end.
All I'd ever really wanted when I was a kid was for my father-- my uncle-- to come back. I wanted a real family. I wanted him to be proud of me. I miss that hope, small as it was.
...thanks so very much, City.

Date: 2009-12-23 05:56 am (UTC)This isn't how I wanted to say hi, Dawn. But hello, anyway.
private | wait until someone warns her off, she will be much less friendly
Date: 2009-12-23 05:59 am (UTC)...So we did know each other. I saw some stuff on the Network, but the backlog is kind of like trying to understand why the Hills is even on TV.

Date: 2009-12-23 06:02 am (UTC)We did know each other. There was a curse that turned everyone into high school students- but we were teachers. We got along pretty well, then. You have lots of friends, though, so I hadn't gotten much of a chance to talk to you outside of that. I took you out for ice cream once- you were having a down day- but that's about it.

Date: 2009-12-23 06:04 am (UTC)Oh! Yeah, I heard about that. This guy, Justin. He met me then, too.
...Ice cream is always good. Anyway, it's nice to meet you again, Gabriel.
