A strange man approaches you.
A strange man approaches you.
I glance up at him with a frown "Can I help you?"
He ran a hand through his unruly, rust-colored hair. "You May.. and who might you be?"
"I could ask you the same thing, but the name's Thalia." I glance around us "Is everything alright?"
"Quite. Where Exactly Am I?"
I look around us once again "You're in the middle of a city, at night. Are you sure everything is okay, you sound lost."
He nodded, blinking his icy blue eyes. "I Am Lost, You're Right."
The longer I looked at him the longer I realised I hadn't seen him around before "I know how it feels to be lost, so why don't I help you try and get where you're meant to be. Where are you supposed to be?"
"I'm Not Exactly Sure." He laughed.
(Character profile?)
(Thalia, 21, Human, Black hair and blue eyes. Anything else? What about you?)
"It can't hurt to try, right?" I smiled nervously
"Now. I Can Tell You're Anxious."
I cleared my throat "Well it's been a long time since I have met someone seemingly not of this world, not to mention you haven't even told me your name."
"Oh! I'm Graye." He smiled softly.
I extended my hand towards him with somewhat a confident smile "It's a pleasure to meet you. Now, will you allow me to help you?"
"Sure, Why Not?"
"Great! First of all, where are you supposed to be?"
Graye laughed again, but this time it didn't reach his eyes. "I Have No Idea.."
"Oh I see… Well that makes things a little more difficult." I bit my lip while trying to think of a plan "Do you have any idea how you ended up here?"
"None.. I don't Think This Is My Planet."
I mumbled under my breath "Please tell me he isn't from another dimension…" I smiled a little awkwardly "Listen, it's starting to get colder. Would you like to come back to my place while we try to figure something out. I don't really want to leave you out here on your own, especially if you aren't from here."
He nodded, his eccentricity fading.
"I'm going to do all I can to make sure you get home."
I showed him to my apartment, which wasn't very far, and soon we were safely inside.
"Okay, can you give me a few ideas on what your planet is like?" I indicated for him to sit on the sofa beside me.
"More.. Wild Than This." He looked at the girl anxiously.
"Define wild sweetie because what you see now is not all there is to this city." I noticed his anxious gaze and couldn't help but feel concerned
"I Mean- Like- Everything's Overgrown And Wild. Like A Forest."
