even though she’s off duty, everything about her screams cop  -- badge is still on her hip, and her car, despite being dark blue with detachable lights, is still very recognizable as a retired crown vic. she’s hoping despite all this, the girl is willing to talk to her at least -- she’s seen her while out canvasing before, and she’s worried. she looks young, maybe twenty, but she always looks a little beat up. visible bruises that always seem to almost but not quite healed. she has no doubt that she’s a runner, sucked into it like so many other kids in the city. she takes seeing her again today as some kind of sign - car pulled over to the sidewalk, she exits and offers her a smile. ❛ hey. my name is kel --  ❜ she can tell the other knows what she does, and is ready to bolt, and she’s trying her best to prevent that. ❛ i’m - i’m a detective. i was just wondering if i could give you a ride home --  ❜ hands are held up in a gesture of peace. ❛ or if there was anything i could do to help? ❜ she doesn’t want to say it but young drug runners almost always end up as jane does in a manila folder across her desk. she doesn’t want anymore of those. ❛ it’s not a trick, i promise. jus’ -- give me an address. i’ll drop you off, no questions. ❜

by now, she’s way too drunk to process anything sarah has said this entire car ride. if she’s being honest, she’s not really sure where they’re even going. ( as long as she’s with sarah, she doesn’t really mind where. ) she’s always been a fairly happy drunk, and tonight is no exception -- she happily sings along to whatever bubblegum pop garbage has come across the radio, watches the landscape outside zip by the window. ❛ hey, sarah -- where’re we goin’ again? ❜ she knows sarah has probably told her already, but her mind is fuzzy and she can’t quite remember. fingertips tap against the glass before she shifts, feeling the car slow and then come to a stop. she doesn’t recognize the building they’re at -- it’s small and brightly lit and it seems oddly familiar but she can’t recall where she’s seen it before ( or if she’s even been here before. ) she turns to sarah, smile still carved into her features. ❛ what is this place? looks kinda nice. ❜ she moves to unlock the door and step outside, but she stumbles, nearly falling into the parking lot. she straightens herself, weight leaning onto the door as she steps out. ❛ y’comin’, babe? ❜

this entire case so far has been a bust. no leads, not even scraps, and the locals aren’t exactly being helpful, either. she’s got herself convinced that there’s nothing here - already planning on packing up tonight and calling it a week. despite that, she still finds herself drawn to the same diner she’d been slipping into all week - it’s as close to a home cooked meal as she’s gotten in a quite a while. but it’s not just the food. there’s something endearing about the kid making it, too - and, as if to prove her point, she’s still pretending to peruse the menu ( who is she kidding, she orders the same thing every day anyway. ) when a plate is slid in front of her. and exactly what she was gonna order, too. she offers him a grateful smile, suddenly realizing she never got the kid’s name.  ❛ thanks so much --- !  ❜ she pauses, admittedly a bit awkwardly. ❛ i don’t think i ever got y’name. but ‘m kelli. ❜

she’s drunk which is unsurprising at this point -- but with lowered inhibitions, she finds herself wanting to talk about something she doesn’t remember talking to anyone about. not since it happened. but she does trust sarah - and the other leda clones. but it’s only her and sarah for now. and she figures one person is a good enough start. she takes another swallow of flat amber liquid, filling in the lull in the conversation with a question. ❛ i ever tell y’that i used t’be married? before --  ❜ she gestures vaguely, at the walls around them. ❛ -- all this? ❜ she tries for a smile, but ends up just looking sort of reflective. ❛ regular soccer mom, ‘cept -- none of my kids played soccer. ❜ even she laughs a little at that.
