Red & Blue [an Audio Drama]
Briar Rose Vixen for Violet
Violet is a quiet, 16-year-old girl who always moves from school to school, house to house, and state to state, due to her fathers employment in the military. This makes it hard for her to make friends. It is not that she can't make friends, she is a very pretty and likable person, but she finds no reason to. She knows she will end up moving again soon, so she remains quiet, reads her books, and keeps to herself. Books are her only consistent friend. She did not think twice when moving to Nebraska. She thought this time would be like all of the other times she has moved: Pointless, boring, and no big deal. Until she met Nate.
[First day at a new school, and Violet is introducing herself. She feels nervous and out of place.]
"Hi everyone. I'm Violet. I just moved here from...Kentucky."
[Talking to Nate while walking to the local corner store. Violet is smarter than Nate, and she knows it. She loves rubbing it in his face playfully. There's a flirty undertone to this line.]
"I guess Harper Lee had a point when she wrote 'People generally see what they look for and hear what they listen for.' That's from 'To Kill A Mockingbird' if you didn't know. Great book. I can let you borrow it if you want."
[Upset, angry, and crying out of frustration.]
"Please! You can't do this to me, Mom. I'm almost an adult, and you're treating me like a child."
