Adopted? No…My Dad…—I-It’s not really important, he’s just not here anymore.
He’s dead?
Yeah…He’s dead….
…?
Was it recent?
No, he died when I was a little younger than you.
Oh.
Mine died too, when I was a little younger than I am now.
I live with an officer, I call him my father.
[/ smiles sadly down at him ] Did I ever get your name, kid? I’m Dorothy Doe.
An officer? He must be a good guy then.

I think people who roleplay OCs and canon characters are just as good as each other. OCs because the roleplayer has come up with the character all by themself (unless they copied someone else’s) and canon because it’s probably very difficult to write an already-made character at times. Neither of them deserve hate. They’re both good. -Anonymous

I’m Officer Dorothy Doe, pleasure to meet you, sir.
[/ smiles sadly ] I suppose I shouldn’t have assumed, I only have one parent too.
Just my mom.
Were you… adopted? Or… um. He doesn’t fully know how to ask this question, still trying to figure out how the whole adoption thing works.

Why does everyone assume two parents?
Just my dad.
And he knows I’m out.

Hey there, kid. Shouldn’t you be in bed this time of night?
I’m not sleepy.
You’re also not my mother.
Well you’re a snappy kid, aren’t you.
You’re right, I’m not, but I’m sure your parents must be worried about you.
