A) What's the one thing you dread people learning about you?
I was in a mental institution for six years.

We'rE cRAzY.


B) What's the one thing you hope they know?

I'm not crazy. YeS WE arE. I'm not.

And I'm not stupid, either. I'm just a little behind the times and I don't know a lot about the way the world works in some ways, but I'm a fast learner and soon, I will.

nO, sHE woN't.

I.. also really want friends. I don't know anyone anymore and being all by myself isn't as fun as I thought it would be. It would be nice to have someone to hang around with once in a while and be a normal teenager for once.

Describe yourself in one paragraph: Uh, well, I'm not really new to the area, but I've kind of been gone for a while so I don't know anyone anymore. I think I'm nice and friendly and upbeat. I'm also not used to being alone, so it'd be nice to have some people to hang out with.

Any OOC notes: All pertinent information is in her profile. Very basically, Rose is only crazy/dangerous when she's threatened. Otherwise, she's the perfectly nice girl she appears to be.

There were motivational signs all over the facility. "Be cheerful!" "Be respectful!" "Be the best me I can be!" Those and similar mantras were what Rose learned to tell herself every day until it became almost second nature. She could be better if she just made herself be.

For three years she worked hard, doing everything Dr. Chritlow wanted her to. She wrote in her journal. She helped tend the gardens outside. Gradually, they decreased her medications she was improving so much. She was going to be written about in a book. She was going to get out and live a real life. All because she was able to take her bad feelings, her negative thoughts, her violent impulses and push them away. Lock them up inside a room in her head and never let them out.

Just like that, everything was ruined. Rose wasn't going anywhere, not yet. All because she wasn't strong enough. She hadn't worked hard enough. She wasn't better. But she would be.

It took three more years before Rose got another chance at freedom and this time, she succeeded. She was eighteen now and Siamare wasn't for adults. Still, they could have sent her to another facility, but they didn't. Rose knew that was because she was better now. She was cheerful, respectful. She was the best Rose she could be.
