i fight for my family

[/color]

micro cuts<x>enemies

[/color][/center]
destroying puppet strings to our souls<x>hatred. [one sided/mutual, specify].
blackboard scratches with hate<x>rivals.
a blade cuts into your brain<x>friendly rivals.
to sounds like a fork on a plate<x>annoyance.
i've seen what you're doing to me<x>love/hate.
hands are red with your blame<x>indifferent.
whimpers someone i should've loved<x>former friends.
souls weeping above<x>respect.

same direction<x>friends

[/color][/center]
somebody claims to see the light<x>[practically] family
i can go my own way and meet you in the end<x>inseparable.
it's seems to me that all of us<x>best friend
just to end up like one of them<x>close friends.
when everyone stepped outside<x>good friends.
i'm tired of playing games<x>average friends.
for something to fill the space<x>name basis.
of looking for someone else to blame<x>passer by
'cause so many choices point the same way<x>childhood friends.
nobody thinks that there just might<x>secret friends.
was all of the time i spent a waste?<x>fake friends.
i'm not ever gonna know if i'm right or wrong<x>influential.
patience, 'cause everyone thinks<x>respect.

lovers in the backseat<x>lovers

[/color][/center]
can you read my thoughts? Maybe it's the right time<x>final.
i'll take you to a side street<x>future.
how much she needs him now, static on the sidelines<x>current.
exuberant and loud, a disguise, how can he know<x>past [specify].
she's happy when she's proud, attention<x>crush [mutual/one sided, specify].
would you like a cigarette, or my hand up on your shoulder<x>flirt.
in the shadows, you can touch one another now<x>friends with benefits.
i think we might have met, would you like me to come over<x>childhood sweethearts.
she's quiet when she's down, strangers from other towns<x>physical attraction.
jealous glances, now i'm looking for another song<x>forbidden/secret love.
and i'll just watch the show<x>confused.

please discuss anything major with me first!

lyrics by:
enemies<x>muse – micro cuts

and who should i be when they're judging me

why can't they understand the things
the men in my life are:[/center][/size]


name: Vaysey, Sheriff of Nottingham
age: the wrong side of forty
relationship: of looking for someone else to blame<x>passer by
history: Ruth is a peasant, and if it means taxes, then joy, but he doesn't know her and frankly doesn't care.


name: Allan A Dale
age: twenty three
relationship: to sounds like a fork on a plate<x>annoyance.
of looking for someone else to blame<x>passer by
history: Allan has yet to meet Ruth properly, but if what Kate says is true about her teasing and gossiping, he could find her annoying very quickly. She shouldn't be spying on her friends, and it's none of her business...


name: James Blythe
age: sixteen
relationship: somebody claims to see the light<x>family
to sounds like a fork on a plate<x>annoyance.
history: James and Ruth are cousins, and while he does love her like family, she winds him up like no one else when they spend more than five minutes with each other. She's just too... well, girly!


name: Asher Hardy
age: twenty one
relationship: hands are red with your blame<x>indifferent.
for something to fill the space<x>name basis.
history: Knowing each other from his frequent jaunts across the shire, but otherwise not taking a whole lot of notice, Asher knows Ruth's name but would still find it hard to pick her out of a crowd.


name: Theodore Wood
age: eighteen
relationship: for something to fill the space<x>name basis.
history: Theodore and Nathaniel thatched her roof recently, so he knows who Ruth is, and she seems the friendly sort but she just lives too far away for her to become a friend. Most recently, he met her outside the bakery in Knighton, but he was more focused on the unfamiliar Lily.


name: Gavin Bates
age: twenty seven
relationship: of looking for someone else to blame<x>passer by
history: Ruth's just another person to steal from.


name: Nathaniel Wood
age: nineteen
relationship: for something to fill the space<x>name basis.
history: They met outside a bakery in Knighton and a flirtatious time was had by all. Nate thinks she's alright for a mother and would certainly be willing to talk to her again if he though he could get her to spill some details about her friend Kate.


name: Luke Scarlett
age: sixteen
relationship: of looking for someone else to blame<x>passer by
history: He doesn't really know her, but he could pick her out in a crowd as a friend of Kate.


name: Sebastian Mannering
age: thirty
relationship: hands are red with your blame<x>indifferent.
of looking for someone else to blame<x>passer by
history: A peasant of his village, although he couldn't tell her apart from any other poverty stricken resident of Nottingham. Sebastian will remain civil for only as long as the façade is necessary to carry out his plans.

there's nothing left to prove
the women in my life are:

name: Lady Avaline Jameson
age: twenty four
relationship: to sounds like a fork on a plate<x>annoyance.
of looking for someone else to blame<x>passer by
history: Avaline doesn't like peasants, as a rule, but as she doesn't have to roam into Knighton too often, Ruth and her ilk aren't much of a problem.


name: Emi Hayashi
age: twenty six
relationship: hands are red with your blame<x>indifferent.
of looking for someone else to blame<x>passer by
history: Emi sees Ruth around the village occasionally, but otherwise doesn't interact with her from fear.


name: Lily Waters
age: seventeen
relationship: for something to fill the space<x>name basis.
history: Lily and Ruth have met a few times doing business and they got on quite well, being similar ages after all. Lily thinks her son is adorable and would happily babysit for her if Ruth asked.


name: Katherine Miller
age: Eighteen
relationship:it's seems to me that all of us<x>best friend
history:Ruth's sole purpose in life seems to be to wind Kate up. Whether it be about a ceertain outlaw who Ruth has seen flittering around, or just in general about her non-existant marriage and family. Not that Kate is in any particular rush.
