Out with the old....

Who: Everyone
What: New Year's.
When: Dec. 31st, New Year's Eve, to Jan 1st, New Year's Day.
Where: Everywhere
Summary: It's New Year's, and the people of Luceti have a lot to reflect upon, and to look forward to. And on a more meta level, new journal names.
Rating: We'll see...

New Year's brings images of crowds, and songs, and fireworks; staying up til midnight and watching balls or bells being rung. But Luceti is a different time and place. Whether you're partying with friends or watching the sunrise, what are you doing today?

"Caroline..."

Damn it, Liz would never be able to figure her daughter out. What was so wrong with trying to find a normal life, or with trying to protect a town? It was natural for Liz, something she'd grown up with. Why couldn't Caroline see that?

"Am I not supposed to?"

A hint of annoyance, anger, worry, and fear were all present in her tone at that question. "What would you rather I do? I'm not a... social butterfly, Caroline." The idea was kind of icky to her, to be honest. It felt wrong, like a skin she couldn't shed but wanted nothing to do with.

"Could you maybe try to be one for a change instead of being the sheriff all the time?"

It was unfair of Caroline to ask that of her mother and she knew it, but articulating that fear was off the table. Lashing out was on it, though, and she'd use it. They had a lot of things to work through and get over in this messy mother-daughter relationship of theirs.

Liz folded her arms over her chest, a protective and defiant move all at the same time. She never appreciated this treatment from her daughter, was never quite sure how to react to it, and it stung even more than normal since they'd actually been getting along prior to this.

"I'm not Miranda Sommers," she snapped, finally unable to hold in the press of anger at her daughter's lashing. Her teeth ground together for a moment as she took a deep breath to attempt to not completely blow this. Even if she didn't think it was her fault, just her daughter being touchy, she wanted to make it work. Somehow.

"...How? I don't do small talk."
