[JULIETTE]

[align=center][div style="borderwidth=0px; width: 450px; text-align: justify; font-size: 8.8pt; color:#COLORHERE"]THE GIRL WITH THE SOFT SOUND
juliette had her fair share of testing the waters in various groups. she never really minded authority, she never had any strong urge to be in control of things. instead, juliette was much more of a go with the flow type of girl. she didn’t mind having other people call the shots, but if she didn’t agree with anything she would make that known. so, naturally it wasn’t the authority part that made her end up leaving the groups she would join. it was the need for adventure, something fresh and new. living life in routines was boring to juli, she needed excitement in her life and she wouldn’t get that by staying in one place. however, her mindset started to change soon after she had ended up pregnant. being in one place started to seem appealing to her, consistency would be good for their future baby. they couldn’t keep running around anymore, especially with her being in her second trimester now.

hazel eyes looked towards the city in the distance before down to delphine who was sluggishly walking by her feet. her attention was then focused on micah as he spoke to her, she nodded in response, but remained quiet for a moment. her feet were beginning to grow sore and there was barely any part of her that wasn’t experiencing some type of ache or pain from her body growing and adjusting to carrying a baby. "i should be okay." she finally spoke, nodding her head again. though it was still quite a ways off, she would be able to manage. they had been traveling for a little bit, she didn’t want to make them stop again now that they were so close. besides, with the sun going down, she would prefer to be inside the walls of los santos rather than beyond them out in the open.

juli rested one of her hands on micah’s back as he got in front of her, not bothering to try and see around him, so, instead she looked towards the ground to make sure she wouldn’t trip over her own two feet. the only time she did sneak a peak around him was when they came to a stop in front of the large fence that surrounded the city before she took a glance behind them. "do you think anyone will come around soon, mon chéri?" she asked him quietly, reaching slightly to scratch the top of delphine’s head.

Selena Felix

She had a... complicated relationship with control. She had no problems giving it up, living under someone else's reign - she'd been doing that all her life, pretty much. But there was always a sense that she could reclaim it if she wanted. That by force, or more likely, cunning, she could seize control.

But she liked playing games with it, too. Letting someone else think they were in charge, when it was really her that pulled the strings. That was her favorite. But here in Los Santos, she really was in control. Everyone answered to her, though some were better about it than others. But maybe that was a sister thing.

Sel was pretty much the picture of Juliette's future: walking around with some difficulty, aches and pains, and of course, the big old baby bump. She was actually going to have to go to Northstar soon, once she took care of a few things so people would know what was going on. Giving up control, for a little bit, just a bit.

"I think I can answer that." She said, raising a hand in greeting, a friendly smile on her face. "What brings you to Los Santos?"

MY DEAR, THERE ARE SECRETS HERE | | |

Control was fleeting, power was meaningless, and Bub cared for nothing more than her independence. Nobody could make the girl do anything she didn't want to do, but given she still had a kind streak somewhere within her and she preferred to not ruffle too many feathers she found herself going with the flow more than not.

Of course, in Los Santos going with the flow meant answering to Sel; her big sister, her big sister with the big baby bump and as much as Bub loved her, she didn't respect Sel's authority more than any of her other siblings. They butted heads, and butted heads often, but disagreements with the leader spoke nothing of her loyalty to Los Santos.

Bub couldn't be compared to any of the people there, not accurately. Though Bub's protectiveness of her big sister seemed to be just as fierce as Micah's protectiveness over his partner; both of them had everything to lose if either of the pregnant women came to harm.

Bub trailed after Sel, shifting the shotgun slung around one shoulder as she observed the newcomers. Neither of them seemed threatening, but Bub had been tricked before and found little sympathy in her heart for the couple. Still, she didn't make any moves of hostility or aggression as she hovered a few feet behind Sel, a masked shadow.

[align=center][div style="width: 300px; text-align: justify; font-size: 10px; font-family: calibri; letter-spacing: .6px; color: #494949;"]the new voice immediately gets micah’s attention, his fists clenching as a reflex. however, seeing another pregnant woman calms him a bit, but he tries to put himself between juliette and the barrel of the shotgun. any other time, he’d have a gun raised too, but this seems like a bad idea when trying to get into a group; especially with his looks, standing at six foot two and muscles on muscles and covered in tattoos.

“[b]we’re looking to join,” he states, “[b]i’m micah, this is juliette,” he introduces, the gun pointed at them still making him incredibly uneasy. his eyes slowly shift from the girl holding the gun then to the girl who spoke. she looks like what juliette will be in just a few weeks. there’s some nerves that arise in his stomach about the baby being so close. he just hopes this will all go over easily, secure a safe place for them. “[b]we’ve just been traveling for while and need a place to finally settle down and be secure,” micah adds, figuring it might look kind of weird that two adults are just on the move and don’t have an immediate reason to have interest in the groups.

Selena Felix

Sel shot a glance back at her sister, brows creasing into a frown. "Is that really necessary?" She asked, tilting her head ever so slightly. She was armed too, of course, though she never felt the need of showing that, or of being suspicious. The fewer reasons people had to suspect her, the easier she got on in life.

Anyone that thought she was easy prey was proven wrong very quickly.

Her gaze turned back to the couple. Were they a couple? Probably, they certainly looked like one. He had that look in his eye, the one of an unsaid promise to protect her at all costs. So sweet, she was getting a cavity. "You're both welcome to join Los Santos." She said, and if Bub still had her weapon raised she'd wave her hand for it to be put away. "I'm Selena, this is my little sister Isabel. She's a tad protective, if you might guess why." The massive bump on her belly, of course. "Care for a tour? You hungry?"

Bub gave the man an odd look, as his vision focused in on her shotgun. She shifted the strap closer to her neck protectively, but still didn't raise it; perhaps just the sight of such a weapon was alarming them? Well, they'd have to get used to it; firearms were a dirty necessity nowadays.

Micah and Juliette, joining. Alright then; it did seem like Micah was noticeably protective of his partner, which Bub saw as a good sign. He wasn't just trying to drop off his bad decisions and bolt.

"Stop introducing me as that," Bub complained as Sel introduced her as Isabel. Did Sel really need to sling around her name like candy on halloween? "Bub, it's Bub to you folks. Uhm- welcome to Los Santos, I guess," Bub said, moving from snappish reintroduction into a fumbling welcome in the span of a few seconds.

"You shouldn't be handling any tours right now," Bub murmured to her older sister, leaning closer as she spoke quietly before loudly commenting. "How about we show you to the hotel and you can claim a room and set your things down? I'm sure you're tired of carrying them around,"

a large shotgun is held tightly in micah’s hand as they walk, they’re almost walking side by side, but he’s slightly behind because he often checks their surroundings to make sure no one is following them or intending to ambush. the sun’s setting, casting an orange tint across the landscape. he hopes they can make it there before nightfall. the city is in view, but still at a distance, it all simply depends on what juliette can handle. he straps the gun to his back, free hand gently pressing against the small of her back, “[b]think you can make it, love?” he questions, really not wanting to push her, but knowing it would be a lot better to get there before nightfall. one of the things on his mind is that if they stop, los santos patrol or something could attack them, they’d be entirely caught off guard.

the sun is out of view when they reach the outskirts of the city, but it’s not entirely dark yet. micah releases a breath of relief, almost as if he had been holding his breath the entire journey. “[b]stay right behind me, okay?” he instructs juli, almost holding her against his back. he starts walking into the city, looking for anyone from the group to greet them and tell them what they need to do to join.
