"What are you researching?"

"Cancer." She said looking up with a hint of a sad face on her face. Zombie really didn't want to discuss it. but it had sort of just jumped out of her mouth. She was mentally kicking herself. This wasn't something she liked to bring up. It always made her sad and she really wasn't in the mood for a moody day.
"No biggie." said Zombie shrugging and hoping she would maybe just think she was doing it for a project or something like that. But she had this awful feeling she wouldn't. her soul had turned a different shade Purple. That could only mean one thing. Curiosity. But she might just be curious about what her own Forbidden books held.

"W...why?" Said Door in a kind, gentle way.

Zombie bit her lip. But it came out anyways. "To find a cure." She said simply. Hoping that would be enough of an answer. She was big into talking about her dad. Or even her mother for that fact. Even if she hadn't known her. She wished she had been able to meet her at least once. To say she knew her mother. Or had known her.
She looked at all the books. They had held virtually nothing that could help her. but she was still willing to try. There had to be something in this Library. There were like hundreds of books around here. On just about everything. She just had to keep looking.

"Autumn..." Door said. "If...if something happened to someone you love, it doesn't mean it's going to happen to you too."

"Shut up." Said Zombie getting defensive. No one called her Autumn but her father. Even when she had joined the gang she had told them to call her Zombie. It only made it worse. Because it was the last thing her father had said. In his last breath he had called her name.
She clenched both her hands and her teeth. "I don't care if it gets me." She stated simply. She wasn't afraid of cancer. But she wanted to do something good. make sure no one else lost a father, a mother, an aunt or uncle to cancer. She didn't have anyone to loose, so if she got it whatever. She still needed the cure though. For her father memory.

"No, I get it. No worries, Zombie." Door sighed. "I'm sorry, to me, our "names" seem formal sometimes. I was just trying to be nice."

"Sorry. I just..." She shook her head and let her sentence trail off. She wasn't good at explaining her emotions about the whole subject. people int he Gang had known not to ask after her first breakdown. And she just wasn't used to people asking about it again. It had been in the back of her for so long.
She sighed and closed her book picking up a new one. She opened it to the first page and started reading it, more or less just to keep her face covered. She took deep breaths trying to calm herself and just have her personal moment for a second.

Door buried herself in her books, not wanting to upset Zombie any further.

After calming herself down Zombie looked back up and had her smile back in place. She started to laugh. "Sorry. Now I'm acting the pregnant dog aren't I? Do you think we could just change the subject?" She asked trying to lighten the mood again. It seemed to have gone slightly Dark after her little out burst.
She looked at her and smiled. This girl was pretty cool in Zombie's book. She could see herself being friends with her. Unlike Pearl and Dream. She was ok with hating hem or not being friends, or whatever. but she did want some sort of a friend.

"A few months." She said glad for the new topic. She wasn't all that used to the school yet either. She had come to be so accustom to just running around wild and hanging out with random people. Living by her won rules. but they had rules here. Most of them she didn't really like.
"Yeah. Especially when they speak a different language." She said with a wink. She knew she had a thick French accent. Which really stood out with all the American's here. But she never let it bother her. And just made her feel special, because everyone else sounded the same.
She however didn't like how less threatening it sounded. She sounded threatening in French. But her accent she found took away some of the fear. Just because it sounded funny with her accent and the words she was saying.

"I know, suddenly a British accent is super cool. I don't get it. But I think you sound lovely."

"Merci. Er... Thanks!" She smiled. It was nice to see someone liked her accent. She had never really heard any English accents before and she really liked it. "I like yours too. But do you know hat kinda I really like? Russian." She said laughing. She thought it was cool how thick they were.
She knew that probably sounded weird, and probably way random. But it had just sorta... popped out. She didn't really have a buffer between what she said and what came out. Which tended to get her in trouble sometimes.
