Is this thing on?

So...Hi.

I'm Maya. Looks like I'm stuck here for awhile, and they told me I should introduce myself.

I'm deaf, by the way. So, you know, try to get my attention in ways other then just talking at me if you want me to actually interact with you.

I'm told I'm going to be in guest accommodation till we get the results of the gene test back, although I'm told the likelihood of me not being a mutant is pretty low.

No idea how long that takes so you should probably get used to me being around.

Right, you're one of those.

Just make sure I'm paying attention, dumbass. I've got implants but they sound like shit so I usually have them turned off.

But if you want to talk to me I'll turn them on.

Right you know that 'flashy lights, colored cards and big gestures' -are- the 'how to get the attention of your deaf student' recommendations and you're just a brat, or do you have some kind of grudge?

I'm sorry, were you informing the actual deaf person on how teachers are meant to deal with deaf people?

How about, and I know this might be shocking to you so try to calm yourself, you ask me how I'd like people to get my notice?

You don't like sarcasm don't dish it out. Get over. yourself. You're twelve, annoying and not half as great as you think you are.

Trying to say something was sarcasm only after you've been called on being a dumbass only makes you look like more of a dumbass.

I'm fourteen and I'm exactly as cool as I think I am.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you're exactly as mature as I think you are.

Is this where you try to pat me on the head and pretend you know more then I do because of some idea that because you're ancient you know better then I do?

Only we both know you're calling the age card because you've embarrassed yourself and it's some desperate attempt to save face.

You know shit and less thna shit about me, and you're fucking adorable.

[xp-echo.livejournal.com]

I know as much about you as you do about me. And thanks, I am adorable. Also cute and fluffy.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]
