03.2023 | WELCOME BACK! Hello friends old and new! I'm so excited to welcome you all back to SITW! I've made some changes to the plot and added the ability to play supernatural charcaters! So come and check it out! I can't wait to jump back into this little town with all of you!
A strange history surrounds the town, it is a place where mysterious and supernatural things have been known to happen. The reputation of the town reguarly draws in visitors and newcomers alike. While some residents avidly believe in the supernatural, others are far more skeptical. What do you believe?
Kota was on the front porch of her childhood home, she had her headphones in her ears and she was painting a sign for the upcoming spring festival. Of course as soon as her folks had left for the morning Kota had rolled herself a big joint to enhance her creativity and motivation, or that's what this strain was supposed to do according to her older sister. So far it was perfect Kota had knocked out six of the fifteen signs, her music was on point and her little dancing as she laid brush stroke after brush stroke was an entirely different vibe, plus since she was alone she didn't mind singing out loud:

Klara had managed to get her hands on some pretty garden furniture. Not the white plastic crap, but a beautiful, bistro-ish set. Since she was in the neighborhood, Klara decided to drive by Calliope's house to tell her about it, because she felt like the set would be perfect for the community greenhouse, once it was built. Normally she would have texted it, but since her house was so close, the brunette felt like she might as well just see if Callie was home.
The senior pulled into the drive way with her Ford truck, the furniture set in the back of it, strapped down to the sides so it wouldn't budge. Klara got out of the truck and walked towards the front porch. She noticed someone sitting there, singing, and recognised the girl as Dakota, Callie's sister.
She hoped her approaching shadow would alert the girl that she had a visitor. If not, she would wave, hoping that would catch her attention, because she knew it was unlikely that her voice would be heard over the music playing through the headphones.
"Hi Kota!" Klara would say cheerfully if her presence was noticed. She didn't know the dark-haired girl well, but she had heard that she preferred being called by her nickname. Klara liked everyone, and had no reason not to honour that wish. "Is Callie home?" Maybe it would be more polite to ask her what she was doing, but she was here for Callie. If she wasn't home, she could ask what the signs were for.

Kota hadn't heard the truck or that her name was called but the shadow had her quickly tossing her joint as if it would matter because if it was her parents they would have smelled it! As she tossed the joint and turned Kota took the headphones off her head and let them rest on her neck, "O-M-G," she grabbed at her chest giggling, "I so thought you were my parents," again she laughed and shook her head, "Nah Callie isn't here," Kota moved around the other girl, Klara, she was older but Kota had saw her around school and plus Callie and her were working some project, "Excuse me, I'm just going to pick this up," and Kota retrieved her joint.
Respectfully she stayed downwind of the girl so the smoke from her three puffs didn't blow back into her face, "Oh I'm getting ready for the Apple Blossom Bash! My family hosts it every spring."

Kota was certainly surprised to see anyone. Klara hadn't noticed the joint before, how, she didn't know either, until it flew through the air. The brunette laughed with the younger girl. "I'm so sorry, I never know how to best approach someone who's listening to music." She chuckled some more while the other picked up her joint. "I didn't know you smoke weed", Klara said, a little curious. She had never tried it before, but she had heard stories about it. "I assume your parents don't know, judging by your reaction." She laughed some more. "Don't worry, I won't tell."
Callie wasn't home, so her small detour had been for nothing, but she didn't mind. "Is that what you're making the signs for? Want some help?" Klara smiled kindly. She wasn't an artist at all but she liked making signs and helping others, especially for something like the Apple Blossom Bash. "But feel free to tell me to piss off if I'm bothering you. I wanted to show Callie something, but since she's not here, I might as well offer some help."

Kota was already relaxing laughing off the scare, "No you are so legit cool, especially if we keep the mothers flower between you and I," she get slightly choked off one particular heavy rip but she waved through the cloud at all still empty paintless signs, "We are kindred in a way now...so yes I would totes love some help, as a tribal elder once said the less experience a little river may have painting with the colors of the wind makes pictures pretty...or...," Kota sorta spaced out perhaps another reason she hadn't got more done but she always did, "well...I read in a book about it or whatever, but no, the more rustic you make it the more the elderly ladies down at rotary just eat this festival up!"
Kota was beyond lifted so she pinched the joint dead, "And yeeeeah, I'm like the family stoner..I ate mushrooms once but that's because my Mom's rez cousins get wild when we come to visit...," she made some noises while giggling moving to collect a few things for Klara, "I'm a chatty stoner sorryyy..what are you and Callie doing?"

Klara laughed at the way Kota worded it. "Very wise words", she said as she sat down criss-cross applesauce. She grabbed a paintbrush and a sign, and started filling in the letters that had been sketched in pencil.
"Hey don't apologise, I don't mind", she said while laughing. "I have never done any of that." She glanced at the joint and back at Kora. She would be lying if she said she wasn't curious, but she didn't want to beg the girl. Begging was so cheap. "Callie and I are working in a community greenhouse, for our senior project. I found some garden furniture I wanted to show her."

Kota just watched as Klara began to paint and fill her in on the project that her and her sister were working on, of course Kota thought Klara was absolutely beautiful. Why did her sister's friend have to be so hot? Why couldn't she have more guy friends so Kota could totally ignore them?
She saw how Klara glanced at the joint and then back to her work, "Community greenhouse, nice, only my sister could grow anything anywhere," Kota took another pull from the joint, "And if you ever wanna try the green I'll be your guide," she brought her hands together and bowed, "I am a wise Sage in that department Klara-son," and Kota giggled in a cloud of smoke. She picked up a brush and began to paint another sign as she smoked, "She should be back soon though, if you want any help fixing or painting the furniture I don't mind to pitch in," whatever she needed to do just to see Klara again.
