"No one has red hair this naturally dark. Of course I dyed it; I'm a natural brunette-" She stopped short as what he said about the time just a few seconds earlier sunk in. She spun round, and noticed the sun almost beginning to dip below the horizon. This wasn't good. Nightfall in an unfa...

So, apparently spending time with the "yanks" as he'd called them would soften her accent. Which was a shame, really. Of course she didn't really notice it, but a few other people had commented on it, and if they thought she sounded British or something, then who was she to complain? She w...

Well, that was a mistake. So, after violently ripping the headphones from his ears, it turned out that she had inadvertently angered the incredible hulk. She was taller than nearly all of the boys at her  school, but this guy was even taller than her, which was certainly a concern for her, especiall...

((Rea Adams, continued from Early Morning, Early Days)) Where the hell was she? Some park, or something. She had just wandered off, exploring the town while her family got settled in, and then suddenly she was in the middle of nowhere in a backwater town in the middle of the desert a couple of dozen...

After Ben's Oscar-winning monologue, silence enveloped the pair. It was just them, standing there by themselves, alone in a deserted school. The Dwarf and the Giant. The Soldier and the Healer. The Boy and the Girl. After years of sycophancy, pretentiousness and snobbery, surrounded by wealth, and w...

Because of course normal people asked questions like that. What was she expecting him to say? "No Rea, you aren't detached, and I know this because normal people ask if they are all the time!" Welp, guess she could blame that on her somewhat less-than-spectacular social skills. No one real...

She had to admire her dad for choosing to marry a neurosurgeon instead of the more common and obvious choice of a generic supermodel trophy wife. Choosing someone intelligent, with brains, character, and an actual personality instead of an oversized barbie. Rea often wondered how she'd have turned o...

"It's different in the sense of the buildings being..." She paused, trying to come up with something. "Well, I like this place's rustic look..." Yeah. Well done, super convincingly said there. Great, now he was gonna think she was a stuck-up, overly rich, sheltered princess. I me...

This was hilarious. Here was this guy, doing his best to appear as tall as he could, having his masculinity obliterated by some redheaded freshman. She could barely conceal the smile from that thought. He really was trying, wasn't he? Spine straight, head up, attempting to appear nonplussed by her h...

"Rea Adams," she bent over slightly to shake his hand. "Good to meet you, Ben." Look at her, making friends with the locals. He certainly wasn't what she expected the people here to be like; he was surprisingly well groomed. He seemed somewhat intelligent, more so than she was ex...

So this wasn't the shy, anxious, stuttered-response-and-then-run-away type of kid, as he proved with his response. There did seem to be something troubling him though. It was her height, wasn't it? She was taller than almost every boy at her previous school, and without doubt was definitely the tall...

As a loose collection of spare parts and junk putted away along the road, a voice called out from a window. Probably that of a younger sister of the boy who stepped out of it earlier. According to her, the boy apparently had a thing for Rea, though that was probably not the case. She'd never seen hi...

((Rea Adams, Memories from the Past)) The smoke from the exhaust of the Mercedes rose visibly into the cold morning air. Her butler had driven off, leaving her standing alone in the shadow of the school. Not in the metaphorical sense, of course, but in a more literal the-sun-has-only-just-risen sens...

A searing pain sliced through her back, thudding to a halt when metal hit bone. She collapsed, falling forward in defeat, carelessly slumped on the ground. She fell on her side, arms strewn about her. She curled up in the pain, clutching her hands to her chest. Tears began to stream down her face. D...

Rea screamed as she dived out of the way of the machete thrown at her. ((Rea Adams, continued from Waking Up in Strange Places is not so unusual for some)) Her mind burst into a panic as she pressed herself against a wall. Someone was actively trying to kill her now, for the first time in the game. ...
