[OOC/Signup]: A House is Not a Home

[Soliloquy]

A House is Not a Home


In the style of a Realistic Role Play





Home is where the heart is, so where is home once the heart is broken?


A house is not a home, just a shelter from the elements.


A house becomes a home when it is filled with those you loved.


Not everyone has those who love them.


You can give them a house, but not promise them a good home.





Setting: The Lemontree Foster Home


This is a couple-ran foster home that is recently formed.


The building is not very well maintained.


The family in it is even worse.


The time is modern.


Mr. and Mrs. Lemontree are available for anyone to play.


Please note, however, that I do want there to be 'something' wrong with the relationship.


They can have their own children as well, should someone wish to not be an foster child.


The children in the Foster Home can range between 4 and 17.


These children are shipped here from around the country, even world.


Rules


1.) Anything stated above must be followed.


2.) This role play will be PG-13. This includes language, content, and out of character.

A foster child would have it's separate last name until they were adopted.

[HanaChan13]

Name: Nora Lucas


Age: 15


Nationality: American, she was born in North Carolina


Primary language: Nora is a mute. Doctors say she is perfectly capable of talking; She just chooses not to.


Description: View attachment 6957


History: When Nora was younger, she was happy. Her parent's were happy and loved each other dearly. -- Or at least she thought they did. They were really miserable, but they did all their fighting behind closed doors when Nora was asleep. Nora was oblivious of this at first, but as the fighting got worse and more frequent she could no longer miss it. When Nora was 13 years old, her father took up drinking. She rarely saw him sober anymore, and her mother had gone into some sort of depression. Nora didn't know what to do. She tried to stay out of the way as much as possible and not talk. One day her father came home from work, drunk and angry as usual. Nora decided that was a good time to take a walk. She walked to the town park and climbed up to the top of the slide, where she sat with her eyes closed listening to her iPod. She must have fallen asleep because when she opened her eyes it was already dark. She knew her mother hated for her to be out late so she hurried back home. When she got there, there were police cars all around her house. She didn't know what was going on but she knew it wasn't good. A police officer stopped her before she could walk inside the house and told her what had happened. In a drunken rage, Nora's father had murdered her mother. Her father was being taken to jail and would not be able to regain custody over her. Nora was taken to her first foster home where she lived until they sent her to Mr. and Mrs. Lemontree.


Personality: Quiet(obviously) and shy, but very sweet. She loves animals and always has her iPod. Her music is her life.
