What You'll Find Here
Anacosta Heights
Dupont Circle
Hawethorn Village
River Dale
Anacosta Heights
Situated above the daily life of the city, Anacosta Heights is a tucked away suburb featuring extravagant neo-gothic inspired mansions. The inhabitants of this neighborhood often show their overwhelming wealth with sports cars lining their long, circular driveways, large pools, and manicured gardens. The homeowners of Anacosta Heights treasure their privacy as seen by the high iron gates to the security personnel present at every entrance.
Dupont Circle
Dupont Circle is a small suburban neighborhood settled within the serene portion of the southern portion of town. These four-bedroom, single-family homes feature back yards, porches, garages, and far more breathing space then the Village offers. This neighborhood often is more family orientated and even has organized events for children and the neighborhood as a whole.
Hawethorn Village
Settled in the middle of downtown, Hawthorn Village consists of several victorian inspired row houses just off the main street. Due to it's convenience to just about everything, the village can be a tad expensive to live within. However, the residents of this neighborhood often have two to three-story townhouses, often with a one to two-car garage. Many of the houses feature bay windows and/or rooftop terraces with a small fenced-in 'yard'.
River Dale
River Dale primarily consists of apartments that, despite their age and industrial appearing interior, still hold to the Victorian history that permeates the town. These apartments are often the cheapest option and sport scuffed, older wooden floors, open floor plans, visible beams, and the occasional brick wall.

I wonder vaguely how Raven deals with the fact that she's not part of a pack anymore. I'm still getting used to the idea that I'm free now to do whatever I want to do. I got so used to rules and regulations and traditions that now, sometimes I feel more lost than I'm comfortable with. I wonder if she feels the same way. Of course she's been alone longer so maybe it comes naturally to her now. I know that we haven't exactly shared stories on what happened to us but luckily it seems we don't need to. We just know that the other went through something just as traumatic and let it go at that. I can tell by the scars that she was beat and bullied just like me. I wonder about her parents. I can guess that her father did those things to her just like mine did but what about her mother? Was hers alive to try to protect her or did she help her father? I cringe at the thought. I offer to get food for her and I'm surprised by her decline, telling me that food isn't necessary, just company. I offer a shy smile in return. "I can do that." I reply. I'm so used to others wanting to use me to get food that I never thought about just being someone's form of company. It's a new idea for me but not surprisingly, a better one in my opinion. Raven must be able to get her own food just fine. I don't doubt it with how big she is. She must be able to hunt her food, not have to steal it like I do. I wonder if she always hunts alone or if she knows other Weres that could hunt with her. When I offer to help her with the reconstruction of the upper floors, she shrugs and tells me that I don't have to but it's fine if I want to. I smile, my eyes brighter. "I do. I want to help out any way I can." I can only wonder at what happened upstairs. I haven't been up there to see the damage myself. Water damage from a leaky roof maybe? Or is it trashed upstairs from the people who had this place before her and she just hasn't gotten around to cleaning it up? Who knows? All I know is I want to recompensate her for all her help and I'll do it any way I can. I watch slightly wary as Raven suddenly straightens up and tells me that her pack is dead and no one wants her but that she'll protect me from my father. I tremble at the mention of him but her offer makes me smile again. "Thank you." I murmur softly. Raven suddenly turns away, looking out the window and her eyes look sad. I tilt my head, curious but then I hear her question and I sigh softly. "You'll get used to the feeling but you don't have to carry the burden alone...not anymore." Now it's my turn to stand strong, my eyes reaching out to her, knowing that I can't do that physically, at least not yet. I'm just cautious about touch as she is and that wouldn't help either of our situations but none the less, I want her to know that she doesn't have to carry all that weight anymore. We'll carry it together.  |
