Sadie watched a grasshopper hop by, fascinated by how high the small creature could jump. She wondered what it would be like, to the have the power to jump like that... Daydreaming about what it would be like, her eyes seemed to glaze over as she stared at nothing in particular.

Norma Jean walked around, feeling a little lonely, but she didn't mind too much. All of her friends were always so busy these days, except Meth, but one could only be entertained by a sloppy drunkard so much. She hummed along to an ipod she wore as a necklace. Her earphones were red, and pretty huge compared to her small, namir head. Though, even when she was human, they were big on her.

Jerked from her day dreams when something bumped into her, Sadie blinked and stared at Norma. She looked around in a paranoid manner, wondering where the other girl came from. "Uhm, hi."

Norma blinked, pulling off her earphones, "Huh?"

"I said hi." Sadie eyed the ears phones. She remembered seeing her papa wear things that look like that before. Music came out of them.

Norma stared, blowing a bubble in her bubblegum, "Oh, sorry. Hello." She picked up the ipod and turned it off.

Sadie leaned back away from Norma as the bubble was blown. "Uhh, where did you come from?"

Norma pointed, "That way." She said, "Sorry for running into you."

"Oh, it's fine." Sadie tried for a friendly smile, a little uncomfortable. It was strange, talking to a stranger when her parents or Meth weren't around.

Norma grinned, chewing her gum. "So, what's yer name?" She asked. Though she wasn't usually too social, when she was in need of friends, she could be quite the butterfly.

"Sadie." She tilted her head, looking Norma over. "Who are you?"

Norma thought for a moment, thinking that she'd heard the name from someone. But she shrugged it off, "Miss Norma Jean!"

Sadie blinked and stared at Norma with child like wonder. "You have three names? How'd you get that many names?"

Norma laughed, "No, of course not!" She said, "Well, I guess I do. But Miss isn't one of them, Norma Jean Thompson! But you can just call me Norma."

Sadie looked confused. "So you have 4 names?"

Norma shook her head, "No, just three!"

"Ohhh." Sadie pondered on that, tapping her claws on the ground. "So how's you get 3?"

Norma shrugged, "My parents gave me them. Our last name was Thompson, and they gave me Norma and Jean."

Sadie thought that over, then pouted. "My parents only gave me one name." She pawed at the ground. "Does that mean they don't love me as much as your parents love you?"

Norma frowned, "Don't be sad! I'm sure my parents loved me much less. Plus, I come from somewhere different, where everyone has at least three names."

"Ohh." Sadie just sat there, the info slowing sinking in. When it clicked, she blinked. "Where are you from?"

Norma thought, "From a long ways away. From AMERICA! ******** yeah!" She giggled at her outburst, but then blinked, "Oh, sorry. Inside joke."

"America?" Knowing that she had heard of the place before, but not quite able to remember where from, Sadie tilted her head back. "...My daddy's from there!" She grinned with pride, glad that she remembered.

Norma grinned, "Really? Me and alllllll of my friends are from there. But now we live here!" She thought for a moment, "Well, one of them is British, so he's actually from England, and his cousin is from Iceland...but close enough!"

Sadie "Ohhhhed" in wonder, looking like a child at Disney land. She bounced in place. "What's it like?"

Norma thought for a moment, "Uhm...it's big. And where we lived it was always rainy."

"Rain? It rains here too!" Sadie grinned, believing that to somehow be important. "Maybe we're getting rain that came from America!"

Norma blinked, looking up to the sky, "Maybe. But maybe not from my town, because it rained almost everyday. And it's been pretty clear since I came. Except for snow."

"Oh." Sadie sighed, the thought of getting rain from some foreign land seemed exciting to her. "So, how'd you get here?"

"Uhmm..." She thought, wondering if she should fully explain, but she decided not to, since she wasn't supposed to tell anyone, "I just...woke up!"

"You woke up here?" Puzzled, Sadie stared at Norma.

"Yeah!" She said, "I just woke up with a headache in the forest."

"..." One could practically see the gears turning in Sadie's head. "I know!"

Norma tilted her head slightly, "You know?"

"I know how you were brought here!" Looking to the left, and then to the right, Sadie leaned close to whisper. "It was the aliens."

"No." Sadie shook her head, then glared up at the sky. "The seagulls are a lie!"

Norma looked up, "Really?" Her ears perked, and she looked at Sadie, "Who told you about the seagulls!?"

"My papa told me about the seagulls." Sadie nodded, then giggled as she thought back on the story Syd told her. About the seagulls bring her to them.

Norma blinked, "DID THEY STEAL ALL OF HIS BAGELS!?

"Yes!" Eyes widening, Sadie stared at Norma. "How did you know?!"

Norma, stared, "I don't know!" She said, "But whats your...pa...pa-" She shuddered, "Look like?!"

At the shudder, Sadie raised a brow. She shook her head, then said, "He has black hair and really pale skin. Has a safety pin in his ear."

Norma jumped, "HOLY s**t." She shouted, "HE WAS MY NEIGHBOR."

Sadie flinched back from the shouting. "My papa was your neighbor?"

Norma grinned, "Yeah, and, like, he helped this kid with his homework, and that kid was my best friend! So then we were all friends and then me and him went on a date but then I decided I liked girls more and then we were still friends but he stopped flirting with me and decided he was pretty much gay, because he hadn't dated a girl for a long time before me, and then stopped after me, but he thought I was pretty but our date was really awkward and kind of lame and he didn't even kiss me and I was like, 'hey, man, lets just be friends' and he was like, 'alright."

Her mind working to take all that in, Sadie just stared. And stared... "My papa hasn't always liked men?"

Norma shrugged, "I guess not. But we were both adults when we met. I guess he liked girls when he was a teenager. But he said they were all stupid sluts!"

"Okay...." Not quite sure what to say or make of that new info, Sadie let the matter drop.

Norma squeed, "I'm so proud of Sydie, all married and junk with a kid!"

"Sydie?" Sadie was beginning to wonder if her brain would break.

Norma giggled, "Sydie! Sydiesydie has a kiddie!" She looked over Sadie, "You're so cute!"

"Uhm, thank you..." The confusion was beginning to overwhelm Sadie as she sat there.

She stared at her, "You don't really look like him, though...oh! But you must look like your other dad, right?"

"No." Sadie shook her head. "I don't like either of my dads. I'm adopted."

Norma blinked, "Oh, duh. Guys can't have babies." She giggled, "You're still cute, though~"

Feeling a blush coming on, Sadie looked at the ground. Even though her fur hid the blush, she still felt the need to try and hide it herself.

Norma frowned, "Aw! Are you okay? I'm sorry if I upset you!"

"I'm fine." Sadie instantly shot her head up to appease Norma.

Norma grinned, "Good!" And she pat Sadie's head. "SO. Whaddya like to do?"

Sadie frowned, feeling like she was being treated like a child when her head was patted. She shrugged. "Explore and stuff."

Norma nodded, a strange look on her face. "Explorin' is fun." She grinned, "Do you like music?!"

"Music?" Sadie found the question odd. How could someone that grew up in a house with a musician, not like music. "Uh, yeah."

Norma beamed, and patted Sadie proudly, "Good, good. Though I've never met someone who doesn't like music." She looked her over, "What kinda music?"

"All kinds?" Sadie picked at the grass, her mind beginning to wander elsewhere.

Norma grinned, "Me too!" She wiggled her eyebrows, "So, whats Syd's man like? Is he HOT?"
