Salmook: he seems pleased with that answer, nodding to himself. "Sometimes I wake up and Pater isn't there. It's… it's lonely."
he pauses for a bit. "But I - I know he does it for me. For my good. You like your Pater?" he tips his head over to where Juni is, only paying half attention to Alex now.
Rhiv: he tries to huff, but another yawn chokes him. he coughs instead. "Constantly."
(Rhiv is making me yawn)
Alex: Well, mine usually told us where he was going, but alright. "Sure, I do. Even if he was a little.. unaccepting at times." He glances at Tseth for a moment after he says this.
Tseth: He glances back at Juni. "See something?"
(hmmm)
(looks around I said nothing)
Resh: He nods. “I get that feeling.”
Juni: She looks back at Tseth, startled. “Oh- no. Probably just my mind playing tricks on me…”
(Can I join this?)
(if you can keep up /hj)
(I'll just randomly throw one of my characters in there and have them flounder)
Rhiv: …really? he's not sure how to feel about that. is Resh being honest, or is he just trying to get on Rhiv's good side? maybe Rhiv could play along for now. "Is… the - the little one. That's your kid?"
Salmook: he doesn't see anything in Juni's direction either, but he's a bit more on edge again. his focus returns to Alex.
"My pater? Best pater EVER. He even sings bedtime songs when he doesn't want to. All for me!" Salmook grins even more.
(hi rice)
(Hello. I'm debating. Should I?)
(the fact that I haven't actually made anything significant for Alex's dad yet except a general idea)
(yes)
(at your own risk)
(we're trying to do a turn system because without it chat goes by WAY too fast)
(Sighs Okay- do I just- post something? or is there a specific order?)
(Just post something for now)
(Let the floundering begin.)
Kay: A random guy is kind of just there. Well dressed, pretty normal looking except for a rusty red hint to his eyes. He has no clue where he is or what he's doing.
(uh who now)
Tseth: He nods. "Alright then." He suddenly stops walking when he sees a stranger in the path. His hand moves back to one of his sheathed swords, just in case.
Alex: "Ah, that sounds.. who is that-?" He looks at the stranger.
Resh: “Oh, you mean Juni? She’s my daughter-“ He pauses, then draws his sword and glares at the stranger. “Who are you?”
Juni: She blinks a few times, then looks back to where she saw the movement from earlier. It had to have been from another person. She looks back to see whether anyone’s watching her or not, then goes back into the forest to investigate.
Parvus: He looks at the stranger, hopping down from Tseth’s shoulder and approaching the stranger. He bats at Kay’s feet, chittering.
Rhiv: his gaze focuses on the stranger, and his heart starts a double-beat. its hard to tell what their exact intentions are just yet… if that stranger so much as breathes on Salmook, he'll rip their arms off. Rhiv's fists clench, and he twirls his hatchet.
Salmook: he eyes get wide as he notices the stranger. he freezes for a moment, and then he hides behind Alex. "Who- who are they?"
(don't take it personal, Kay, it's just Rhiv is just consistently ready to chew cement if it would stop his son from getting a papercut-)
Kay: "I am Kay. Who are you guys?" He seemed overwhelmed at the moment, and looked very confused.
Ater: He looks between the stranger and Juni. He decides to follow Juni, walking up beside her and giving a questioning "mrrrr?"
Tseth: He pauses, assessing Kay. He didn't seem like much of a threat, for now. "Tsethlekai Stryker. Call me Tseth."
Alex: He spreads his wings a bit, giving a bit more of space for Salmook to hide. "My name's Alex."
