(Name/any nicknames: Lukas King (Kas, King, whatever else you can come up with sdghnk)
Age: 13
Gender/pronouns: Male, He/Him/They (mostly he/him, though)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Personality: Kas is very confident in his own abilities and will generally refuse to be assisted. He's generally boisterous and he's practically vibrating with anxiety and energy all the time (sleeping isn't his strong suit, though). He has little to no regard for his own safety, and often lashes out at others if they catch him when he's vulnerable. He's been alone for a while and he's confused and angry and uncomfortable in his own skin. He hasn't really decided what he does or doesn't like yet, and he's struggling to figure out what he wants to do with himself. He is physically pretty competent, and he's done a decent job of keeping himself alive.
Appearance: (Extended) He's about 4'11, and he has a little bit of muscle on him. Not enough to be super noticeable, but enough to show that he has been taking care of himself for some time. He has a lot of scars on his body that he hides with his clothing.
Background: He was traveling with his parents for a while, but they ended up being infected, so he had to separate from them. He's practiced with a bow and arrow since he was little, so he's pretty good with one, which has definitely helped him survive. He's been traveling alone for a long time now with his companions being very few and far between.
Outfits: He pretty much just wears what he has on in the picture, but he'll wear whatever he can find
Hobbies/talents: He's skilled with a bow and arrow
Weaknesses: Refuses help most of the time, A n x i e t y go brrrrr, No regard for his own safety, Phobia of needles
Gear/weapons: Bow and arrows, pocket knife
Open to shipping?: Sure
Other: He's uh,,, not always great at interacting with people, but he'll try his best, Can and will work himself constantly until he just passes out honestly, He likes moving all the time because sitting still stresses him out)
(God, I love him already)
(Someone please stop him lmaooo he's like "danger?? Yeah we running in 🙌✌")
(He refuses to be called Lukas btw, so he likely will not even tell you guys his actual name lol)
(Hold hands hold hands 👀👀👀)
(I'm probably gonna pop him on the porch with a dislocated knee or something lmao)
(Luka needs someone close to his age [other than his family] to talk to so he’ll probably find him)
(Okay! I will also eventually add another character but idk who)
Tohru was doing his best to keep Mori upright while he walked, but the boy really didn't need to be standing at all.
"Here, let's get you sitting back down, and I'll get you some medicine then."
(I might add exposition on the Rose parents-)
"Okay…" Mori didn't seem to quite understand and just slid down to sit on the floor where he was, breathing more heavily than normal. "Mmmm… my head feels like… like… pressure. Hurts."
Kas gripped his bow with one hand, so tightly that his knuckles were white. His hair was disheveled and he was bleeding from several places, and he couldn't walk at the moment considering he'd hurt his knee. He hadn't slept at all, needing to protect himself from the zombies, and he was trembling where he sat on the porch.
Bean sighed as she pulled her siblings closer. Flashbacks to the day they were separated from their parents haunted her. ”Always keep an eye on them. You never know what could happen,” Harriet Rose had told her eldest daughter as she was searching for supplies to send her kids off with. Her husband was off securing the house and making sure no one could get in. “But, Mom! I-I can’t do this w-without you!” Bean cried as Harriet pulled her close. “Sweetie, I know it’s hard but they need you…” Harriet kissed her head. Bean’s eyes welled up with tears as she remembered that day. That was the last time she saw her parents at all. Lilac was asleep but she could tell Bean was upset so she cuddled up against her. Luka did the same before walking off to the porch. He needed fresh air since the smell of blood reminded him too much of what happened with Hailey.
Rachel walked around the corner, spotting Mori and Tohru walking down the hallway(?).
"What are you two doing up? Both of you need to be resting. Especially you Tohru." She said, following. "I swear, people never can sleep and I'm always having to get on them…"
"I'm sitting nowww…" Mori replied, his words a bit slurred. "Can I have the good medicine now?" He asked tiredly. "I wanna make the… the… the hurt go away…"
Kas decided that he couldn't just stay on the porch forever, injured knee or not, and he attempted to get up. As soon as he put weight on his leg, he collapsed again and groaned softly in pain.
"Especially me?" Tohru echoed, "I'm fine. He needed help first, so I'll rest once that's seen to."
He cleared his throat.
"Anyhow, I was thinking we should probably stay here a second night, with people injured. It's probably not smart to carry on until we know everyone is able to do so."
When Luka reached the porch, he froze when he saw Kas. “Oh my gosh….Rachel!” Luka peeked into the house, calling out to her as he picked up Kas carefully.
"Agreed. Mori, you stay there sweetie. I'll grab my medicine. Have you puked?" She said nervously.
"I'll need to grab some different ones then. Better painkillers and some fever meds."
She sighed. Rachel hated having to play doctor. She hated people being hurt.
"What!" Rachel yelled behind her. "What's wrong now?"
"Yeah, he said he's been throwing up," Tohru confirmed, "Could you see to him? I hear someone calling outside, I'll check on what they need."
He started down the hall, passing Rachel.
"I'm so glad you're here. Things could've been way worse."
Luka tried to hold Kas up. “I found someone on the porch! He looks hurt!” he cried.
Rachel nodded. "Yeah, you go on ahead. If someone needs medical attention, let me know."
She pulled out some bottles out of her side pouch. "Now, I'll grind up the pills this time. They'll start working faster and will be easy to swallow." She added.
Earl jumped up. "What? What's going on? I fell asleep on the chair."
"Hey! Put me down!" Kas struggled against Luka's hold, brandishing an arrow to defend himself with.
Mori looked around, dazed and confused. He could hear people yelling, but he couldn't tell what was going on.
“I’m trying to help you!” Luka glared at Kas. “Trust me, stuff like this HURTS,” he sighed as he continued to hold onto Kas.
(My sis was like “Okay, okay, but I ship Kas and Luka already-“)
"Whoa, easy kid." Earl said, trying to calm Kas down.
"Where…did you come from?" He asked.
Rachel crushed the pills and put it into a fresh water bottle.
"Drink this Mori, and stay here. I'm going to check out what's going on."
Tohru ran out onto the porch, not sure what to be prepared for. Not too much blood. That was good. Organs still inside his body. Also good.
"Hey, hey, he doesn't look like he can walk right now," Tohru warned, "We might have to carry him inside in a minute."
