•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘• Being on clean up and clear out duty at the Inn all day had Alyson worn out and in need of a new view. Anything at this point would have done the job, anything that didn’t look like her new home. It was only by chance that she had wound up at the gardens. When she stumbled out the front doors of the building she took a step in an unplanned direction and started walking, but not before telling El where she was going.
She and El had met soon after all the government intervention began and since then they had kept close. It was a new family, one that was growing every day. It was a silly idea to bring in strangers, but if they could help anyone else in their time of need then that’s what they were going to do. But this particular trip wasn’t a search mission per say, on the other hand nobody said it couldn’t turn out to be such.
Upon reaching the garden Aly’s eyes were immediately draw to a small patch of random flowers. It was hard to tell if they were wild or planted since she was no botanist, but they sure were nice to look at. Since almost all the color had gone from the world lately it was nice to see something that emanated life and happiness
She almost half considered taking some back to the Inn, but if she picked them they would die sooner then later and what would be gained from that. Instead she just decided to take them gently in between her fingers so she could look at them from every angle, at the same time committing the sight to memory. It was times like this that she wished she could draw.

Brushing some of his ebony hair out of his eyes, Jason let out a slight sigh. Even though he had cut it not that long ago, it was starting to look like it needed to be cut again. But then again he basically had a mohawk and often wore hats or hoods over his head. Today Jason was bored. He was bored of being cooped up inside the same place, day after day. Of course he told his mother where he was going and how long he would probably be out for. He just needed to be away from the same things he saw everyday. Jason basically aimlessly, he could have cared less to where he was actually going. All he knew was that he was bored, and he was carrying all of his sketch books with him. Rolling up his sleeves, Jason paused at a sight before. He assumed he was going crazy, cause he saw some colored flowers and a girl next to them. It had been a while since he saw with some color in it. Walking up, Jason knew he had to sketch and color them. Walking up next to the girl, he paused for a moment. "Excuse me." he said to get her attention. "If you don't mind, I was wondering if I could kind of sketch these real quick."------- Tag: Alyson Words: 222 Oh yeah :3 Outfit: click |

•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘• Leaning into the smell her flower of choice Alyson never saw or heard the other person approaching which is why when he spoke to her she drew in a sharp breath and jerked back as fast as she could, successfully ripping the head of the particular flower she had been examining clean off. Looking to the male in front of her from the ground she fought to get words out. She hand’t been caught off guard like that in some time and it was taking her a moment to get with it.
“Oh umm well, yea go for it...I sort of killed one though...”
Alyson shot a sympathetic glance to the head of the flower that she had just unintentionally murdered. It wasn’t even like it was a human life she had just taken, but she still felt like she had committed some kind of hate crime against the remaining beauty of mother nature.
“I really hope that doesn’t mess up your...drawing.”
Aly paused for a moment before the last word because she couldn’t believe what she had just heard, or said for that matter.
“Wait you’re an artist?”
It was stupid to think that he had been sent here because of her previous thoughts of wanting to draw what she saw, but it seemed just a bit to put together by the universe to just ignore it.

Watching the girl rip the flower, Jason opened his mouth in shock. He didn't mean to scare anybody, he did say 'excuse me' to her. Rubbing the back of his neck nervously, Jason mumbled. "Sorry for scaring you."
Jason chuckled slightly and shook his head. "It shouldn't." he simply told her. Sitting down, Jason removed his bag and set it down next to him. "I can still draw the other ones."
Listening to her question, he nodded his head. "Yeah." he smiled. "I have been drawing since I was eight, I think." he added. Digging into his bag, Jason grabbed his most current sketch book and flipped to a blank page. Removing his hat, he shoved it into his pocket. "What about you? Do you draw?" he asked her.
Setting his sketchbook on his lap, Jason dug through his bag to grab all of the stuff he needed; pencils, pencil sharpener, erasers, etc. Once he had them in hand, Jason suddenly felt very very stupid. "Oh, I'm Jason Martin by the way." he said with a small smile on his face.

•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘• “Oh well...no I don’t draw, I mean unless you count sick figures that lack any kind of real proportion.”
She had known the guy for all of a couple of minutes and she was already totally digging the fact that he had showed up. He’d been an artist since he was eight, certainly the bring home to daddy type. And by daddy she obviously meant El.
“Jason huh? Very masculine name, you don’t by chance hang around summer camps and kill off the councilors and campers with a machete while wearing a hockey mask do you?”
The question lingered for a moment before she realized that what she had just said was the most ridiculous first impression maker ever. If she were wise she would have walked away, but as it was, she wasn’t the brightest bulb in the box. So stay she did.
“Umm I’m sorry that was stupid...I mean it’s in my nature to make connections between...I’m a horror junkie, it’s what I do.”
And like that she had turned her social botch into a fact of sorts. It was almost like saying she was an artist, only instead of being useful she was simply there to perhaps entertain? It made he smile, just knowing that she had taken something bad and possibly for a change made it something good.

He nodded his head when she said that she could draw stick figures. "Hm, well maybe you should draw me a stick figure." he told her as he set his things down and grabbed his pencil. "That's how I started out. And then my drawings went from stick figures to movie monsters."
Jason chuckled at her comment. It was an obvious movie reference, that he caught on to pretty quickly. "That is my summer job actually." he replied to her as he began sketching the flowers before him. "But I only show up on Friday the 13th. I'm begging to get more hours. Like to show up on the thirteenth hour. If you go by military time." he explained to her.
Jason nodded his head and smiled at her. "It's okay. I use to watch a lot of horror movies, so I can make jokes with you." he commented as he grabbed his eraser. He began to clean up a few areas on the picture. "Speaking of Jason. I think I drew him, in one of my many sketch books. You can take a look if you want." he pointed at his bag.

•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘• Alyson’s eyes got a little wider at the mention of movie monsters. This was totally not even real. The guy could draw, and he liked to draw horror movie monsters. What’s more was he managed to take her lame name joke and turn it into a hilarious, and almost convincing story. If it hand’t have seemed so awkward Alyson would have let her self roll around in laughter she was that amused by the joke. And although she could go that far she did allow him to see her laugh uncontrollably. Once she got all calmed down she was able to express her self in a more understandable manner.
“Okay thats it you are my new best guy friend! You not only get my lame jokes but totally make them more fun....on top of that you draw horror movie monsters...”
He excitement was so plainly displayed when he gave her the okay to take a poke around in his work. She pulled one book off the top of the stack and slowly started to flip page by page admiring what ever it was depicted on what was once a blank sheet. Every so often she would glance over at what Jason was working on at the time, the more time she spent watching and looking at his old work the more impressed she became.
“Oh my gosh...I just realized I neve told you my name! I was so busy nerding out I forgot! My name is Alyson, but I go by Aly, sometimes AlyCat.”
It was then that she decided to move closer to Jason. Nothing could have made this meeting more ideal. She smiled at him not sure if he would see it or understand why. There was really nothing to understand. She had found a kindred spirt today, one she hoped to keep around.

Jason laughed when she exclaimed that he was her new best guy friend. So all those years of drawing movie monsters, watching them and even naming his dog after one finally paid off. "So that's all it takes to get you to open up?" he joked. "Man, I should have met you before this whole mess started."
Brushing a few strands of hair out of his view, Jason quickly continued to work on his sketch. Since it was only flowers, it wouldn't take too long. "So AlyCat" he said, chuckling at her nickname. "What do you think?" he asked, showing her the basic rough draft of the flowers. "I still have to clean up some spots and color it though." he added.
"So why are you out here all by yourself?"
The question had been bugging him since he met her. He was alone cause he was bored of being cooped up in one place. He couldn't stand to be in the same place for long periods of time.
"Are you alone? Or did you leave whoever you were with?" he asked, hoping he wasn't being rude.

•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘• Trying not to put to much stock in his comment about meeting her before she looked onto the art in awe. Okay so what’s the harm in thinking that I might like this guy...he doesn’t need to know... Aly had a habit of assuming things to quickly which was why she didn’t want to jump the gun on this guy. Although she did like hearing him call her AlyCat.
“That is awesome! No one I knew...or know now could have done it better themselves!”
It was almost as if she were looking at a postcard from a happier place. It made her wish that the rest of the world around her looked like Jason’s drawing, but when she looked away nothing had changed. Big surprise.
“Well I’m out here alone because...I guess I like living life on the dangerous side!”
She flashed a cunning smirk that soon faded away because she had to laugh. Alyson wasn’t really the daring type, or really brave enough to try to be.
“Okay truthfully I was just bored...I left my partner in crime El back at the Inn. We sort of met up and started living together...kind of strange but were starting a group of sorts, yah know taking in....strays? Can that term be used to describe a person?”
She stopped there afraid that she was being to wordy with her explanation, she got that way when was was on the nervous side. Okay time to let him talk... Nervously she looked to the side for a moment before coming up with a question for him.
“What about you? Why are you out here all alone?”

Grabbing an ink pen, Jason laughed at her comment on living on the dangerous side. Uncapping the said pen, he soon began to trace the picture he had just drawn. When she said why she was really there, Jason merely nodded.
"So what you're saying is, you don't live on the dangerous side?" he teased her a little bit.
Jason paused at her question. Can you describe somebody as a stray? His answer was a yes, for personal reasons of course. Brushing a few strands of hair out of his eyes, he merely shrugged his shoulders.
"I am sure you can now." he told her. "But if we said it before all of this happened." he said, waving his arms at everything around him. "I believe the term stray would be better sorted for orphans."
Listening to her question, Jason put the cap back on his pen and set it onto the ground.
"I am not all alone. You are here next to me." he twisted her words and smirked at her. "But basically the same reason as you. I got tired of being cooped up in area with my brothers and mother. I just needed some fresh air." he explained to her.

•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘•◘• She looked at him not sure how to respond to his question about not liking living on the dangerous side. Truth be told, since the change she wasn’t sure where the line was drawn when it came to dangerous side or not. She was rather glad that he moved on to answer her other question about the term strays.
“Well when you put it like that I don’t feel as bad about saying it.”
She displayed a confident grin until he went and turned her words on her. It’s true that he wasn’t alone, but she never really considered herself part if the equation. Which seemed more odd the more she thought about it. One can’t be alone with company after all.
It caused her smile to fade, and she appeared more bashful afterwards. She wanted to say something but his followup comment pushed her desire to reason out her thought process away.
“Wait you have living family?”
She tried not to sound so astounded, but the truth was she had not found anyone yet that still had living relatives. Then again she hadn’t met many people either.
“Not to seem nosey or anything but how many brothers? Is everyone in good health?”
Suddenly Alyson’s interest in why they had been out was sent to the back burner in her mind. There were more people out there and she was determined to get the know more about those little details first. It was something El would want.
