She had been dumped. Not even two hours after she makes love to Marlo, or even anyone, for the first time, and she's dumped. He had just been just using her in the hopes of getting her in the sack. She couldn't believe that she would have ever fell for it, but Marlo had seemed so genuine. He seemed like he really did care, and now he had done this to her. It may have hurt less if he wasn't so cruel about it, too. Calling her a slut, and saying how stupid she was. That was just wrong. No human being should ever think that they had the right to treat another person like that. But here she was, standing outside of Delphi's house, talking into the callbox.

"D-Delphi? I a-am he-er-e."

She had called Delphi earlier to let her know she was coming over, but she hadn't been able to tell her what happened because she was crying so hard. She would have to explain now, and she only hoped Delphi would be sympathetic. She knew Delphi was still wary of her, but right now she felt like the only person Tiresia could talk to, the only person she could really fall back on. She didn't know why she didn't feel like she couldn't do it with Drey, but then again she didn't know a lot of things right now.

"I-I-I re-a-lly fuck-ed up b-ad this ti-i-ime..."

She snorted, wiping at her face. She had put on make up: bright red lipstick and some mascara with eye-liner, to impress Marlo. She thought she looked very pretty when she put it on. But now, the gunk in her eyes was running down her cheeks and lipstick was smudged, and she still hadn't done her hair back up into a bun, instead leaving it a frizzy mess. She hated herself right now, and everything about her, but for the shortest while before she and Marlo made lo-- no, fucked, she felt pretty

Delphi sighed heavily. This girl did not learn. She swung the door open. Her lips were parted as she was about to yell. She halted in her tracks as she stared at the blubbering teen. She closed her mouth and stared. Oh man. The girl looked like someone ripped her up. The smeared make-up really added to it. Delphi frowned. She glanced around outside. It didn’t look like anyone was around. She tightened the strap of her robe and ushered Ti inside.

She motioned to the couch. “Sit down.” Delphi commanded softly. She walked into the kitchen and retrieved a wet paper towel. She knelt in front of Ti and began wiping her face. She was looking for bruises. For some reason, Delphi was assuming abuse. There didn’t look like there were any injuries. “Did someone hurt you Tiresia? Why do you look like this?

Tiresia sniffled, sitting as Delphi commanded. She didn't look her in the eyes the whole time she was there, too ashamed of herself to really stand that sort of thing. She took a few seconds to respond in between gasps and blubbering, but she finally managed to calm herself down enough to talk properly while Delphi wiped off her make-up.

"Well, I was stay-ing with Marlo-o-o... And... And he said maybe I'd look pretty with some make-up on, right? I really liked him, so I put some on, even though I don't reall-y like make-uh-up. He said I looked beauti-ful-ul-ul..."

She choked, trying to continue on with the story, despite it being insanely painful for her. Every word that she spoke had to forced out of her, like molasses out of a bottle after it had been left in the fridge for a while. She didn't know how to put anything, or when to get to what she was saying, so she just kept on the track that she was going.

"Then we sat down a watch a mov-ie in his room... And we started making out. We were frenching and stuff... Like we had been for a while, when he slides his hands into my waistband and he looks at me and I know I should have waited but I let him pull my pants down and..."

She bit her lip.

"It wasn't long before we were both naked and we were having sex... I knew it was wrong, Delphi, I really did but I just wanted to be with him. He made me feel special. Like I wasn't alone... It hurt, too, but I wasn't think-i-ing..."

Tiresia was even paler than normal now. She actually looked like she wanted to throw up.

"About two hours after we finished, I was cleaning the the sheets and then he says to me "it's over, Ti." and I just kinda... I felt really sick, I wondered what I had done wrong and all I can ask is why, and his just grins at me like a... A... Stupid fucking jackal and says "I don't date sluts." A bit of anger mixed into her face, still nearly drowned by the sadness. "After all that, he calls me a slut... And... then he throws me out."

She sobbed, and threw her head back against the couch. "What did I do wrooong?"

Delphi scowled. “You didn’t do anything wrong. That guy was just a sick and twisted punk.” She didn’t know what to offer Tiresia. She moved to sit next to her. This kid… God, she was so naïve. Delphi pressed her elbow on the top of the couch and rested her head on her hand. She was going to find that little fuck and scare the piss out of him.

Tiresia nodded at Delphi, and hugged her. "I know that... But... Ugh. Part of me wants to see if he was just kidding, pretend he actually cared." She grimaced. "Damnit, the man proves he's scum and I still love him. That's not fair."

She sighed, and kept hugging Delphi. It felt nice to hug someone like her. Maybe it was just that Delphi actually made her feel like she was really a teenager instead of an adult. Whether she wanted to admit it or not, sometimes Tiresia enjoyed not being on equal ground with people, as long as she knew they weren't going to hurt her. Not to mention Delphi was family and there was something special about that, something intangible that made being around her make Tiresia feel more safe and even feel a little better about herself. Though maybe she was just setting up too many expectations for things.

Tiresia looked up at Delphi, and sniffled, but managed to smile. "Y'know, this has been a really bad week for quittin' cigs."

Delphi nodded. She couldn’t think of anything to say that would make the pain go away. Pain just didn’t work like that, but Tiresia was strong. She was bright and naïve. She was sweet and optimistic. She would make it through. For a moment, Delphi forgot about who the girl once was. She only saw a distraught teenager smearing make-up and tears on the couch. There were screaming impulses in Delphi; A mother’s calling to hold a hurting child, to right their wrongs, and protect their innocence at all costs. Something told her that a jaded Tiresia was not what the world needed. This girl… This young woman was a bright light in a dark place. To kill that spark with the troubles of sin and corruption would be an injustice.

There was poetry to that. Like the words of a book…

Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.

I’m going to talk to this boy. I’ll make sure he never sees you again.

Tiresia sniffled loudly, and smiled at Delphi. She felt a genuine, mutual connection with her right then and there and she once and for all knew they were family. But there was still that hurt inside her and it made her want to do other things, and put that warm feeling in a darker place as ideas of revenge and spite were woven through her mind like a poisonous spider weaving its web to trap nearby insects, hungrily waiting to wrap up its prey and paralyse its prey so it can wrap it up and suck it dry over a period of days. Her fists balled and she looked at Delphi.

"I'm going to come with you..." Even as she spoke a few tears managed to force their way from her eyes "I wanna beat the living shit out of Marlo."

Part of her was fully ready to succumb to the anger and bitterness that came from being used, the revenge fantasies providing a near-ecstatic pleasure as she contemplated what she could do to the man who hurt her. It would be a grave mistake to allow her to come, the hate radiating off of her being a clear warning to anyone who really cared. This was not a time for her personal revenge but to have someone else take the front wheel because if she did it herself, she'd surely veer off the right path and crash horribly.

Delphi frowned harder. “You’ll be staying here.” She sat up higher on the couch, tucking her feet beneath her. “You won’t be beating anyone, so don’t even say that. Yeah, he was an utter asshole, and yeah the hurt is bad, but you don’t hit people. I’m going to talk to his parents, I’m going to explain what a little shit he is.” She thought for a moment. She would tell the shieldbearers to watch her house and that she was being stalked by her insane relative. She’d tell Ti to stay away from the windows and not to answer the door even if it was herself. She’d only be gone for a little while.

It didn’t matter, plans had to wait. For now, it was just them.

Tiresia sputtered a little at Delphi's authoritative tone. She was not used to having to take orders from someone, but for some reason it felt like Delphi really was in a position to give her commands, though Tiresia being the teenage girl that she was, still didn't like it at all. But this was Delphi. Gah, such a pain.

Tiresia sighed, and laid her head down on Delphi's shoulder. She was going to cry, she wasn't going to scream or shout. She was sort of in between enjoying Delphi's company and begrudging her for taking away her chance at revenge on the boy that had spurned her. She felt a little lightheaded from all the stress of this day, but that only made her sink further into her relative. Part of her wanted to fall asleep right then and there, just sleep for hours and wake up and hope that she would feel better after some rest. Maybe Delphi would even let her.

"Well... Okay, Delphi." She said with quiet resignation. "But, uh... Thanks for... being understanding, I guess." She yawned a little. "I think Drey would have given me loads of shit or something like that... I was kinda worried you were gonna do the same." She looked up at her. "You're... You're not mad at me, right?"

Delphi was silent for a moment. She needed to explain her disappointment delicately. The motherly instincts instructed her to spare the girl's feelings. She idly pat Ti's shoulder. Her lips were pressed in the perpetual frown that was her face. How much prettier and younger would she look if she smiled more often? The silence seemed to stretch and Delphi couldn't summon the right words. She imagined the silence didn't reinforce any warm feelings. She opted to sigh as a stall tactic. Anything to interrupt this situation.

"I'm not mad." She said finally, "But you know you let him trick you. It's not your fault, but... But you know. You have to learn from this."

"Yeah..." She said with a sigh.

She pulled her knees up to her chest, looking in no particular direction. From the look in her eye, you could almost tell she was thinking, pulled back to some earlier time in her life. She hummed, remembering a song she hadn't sung, or heard in four years. It was popular once, but that didn't last. Nothing really did in the Lone City. New media, new faces, they were all pumped out as rapidly as possible and it was more than common for actors and musicians to find themselves out of a job after merely four years unless they were really popular. But that really only happened to the originals, the ones who had been there first.

"Y'know... I think I've always had bad luck with boys. I still remember the first person to ever kiss me on the lips. His name was..." For a second, she had forgotten. It made her loo-- oh, there it was again. "Toko. Toko Pirelli. He lived near the slums I usually hung out in. Liked it there because it was pretty close to the heat ducts from one of the plants... You couldn't get too close or you'd scorch yourself, but if you slept at just the right spot, you'd stay warm all night with just an old curtain as a blanket. I know because I had this one curtain for like, a year and a half before it finally was unusable. It was blue... But anyway, Toko. He and I met when I stole his lunch back when I was twelve. Hadn't eaten in at least four days, hadn't slept in two."

She smiled at Delphi, seeming almost happy about what was a rather depressing youth. But she wasn't really happy. Deep down, she was just as sad about it as she always was, just letting nostalgia overcome it for a few moments.

"We actually became friends... I'd eat at his house, play with him, help him with his homework... That sorta stuff. I had known him for like, 5 months when he asked me if we wanted to be boyfriend and girlfriend, and me being twelve... I said yeah, of course. We didn't really know what to do. He was pretty sheltered and I barely talked to other kids, so we just kinda did what we thought boyfriend and girlfriend should do. Held hands, cuddled, watched movies together and that sort of stuff. I got a job delivering crates for this one guy just so I could have money to spend for time with Toko."

She relaxed a little bit into the couch. "Well, one day, he and I had just finished our lunch at this little diner. He had squid with mashed potatoes. I remember that because it was on his breath when he kissed me and..." She had to stop to giggle. "God, it smelled awful. I don't really remember what I ate... Anyway, that kiss... That was wonderful. We spent a whole three more months together before Toko came up to me one day, and he... He just looked so sad. He said his mom found out I was homeless and didn't want me to hang around him anymore. Said she thought I had stole some things, which we both knew was true... I left Toko alone after that."

She shrugged, and hugged Delphi tighter. She missed Toko.

"And... You know, I never bothered trackign him down, after all these years. I mean, back then I was Charlotte, the giddy nomad girl who would braid knots in her hair for fun then see how long it took her to get them out. But after a while, I became Tiresia. The homeless girl who had a smoking habit and occasionally got drunk on cologne so she could fall asleep when the city noise was too much... Sometimes I wonder how much he's changed."
