Ana was quick to throw away the burger. She couldn't really get the gall to eat. Especially since she didn't cook the food herself, it felt…alien and wrong. Just a weird thing she knew. God she was so ungrateful… A heavy sigh escaped her as she followed after Dani.
(@Tired Otter alright! ^-^) and (@Everyone, thank you for the kind words regarding my stomach bug. I really appreciate it. ^^)
(sorry! I want be able to been for a few days, so Skylar is yours until I come back! Please
Don't do
Anything bad to her, though! And no back stories please! Thank you guys! That would help a
Lot!
Blake flicked his wings in annoyance as he walked down the sidewalk. His left wing (where the feathers had been ripped out) was bleeding a bit. Quite a few people gave him concerned stares, but he ignored them, lost in a storm of thoughts. Did Commander Ryker actually send him out to die? It was true Ace seemed much stronger than him, but still… he wouldn't do that to a loyal soldier, right? Where would this Ace guy even be anyways? Blake knew he had to start the search. His stomach grumbled in protest, reminding him that in his hurry to escape the barracks, he didn't get lunch. With a quick scan around the street, Blake decided to take a detour to a nearby Ramen place.
(Oh, wait, so is Josh supposed to be back in the Shop at this point or..? Cause currently he's just walking away from the shop.)
(I have a question @Mish. When will Joshua go to the citadel? After he meet Blake?)
(They can run into each other outside)
(*meets)
(@Natasha idek. I think what we can try to do, is that Blake–cause, he's in considerable amount of pain at this point. Accidentally lets something slip about the person he's searching for–like, mumbling about some powered kid or something. Josh could suspect that he's working for the R.A.C. and run down with the news or something? Idk…you guys have any ideas?)
Blake huffed and halted as blood dripped from his wing onto his R.A.C. uniform. Commander Ryker always warned about public appearances. Blake felt dread build up inside him even though the commander wasn't nearby. He started taking deep breaths to calm himself down and kept walking, visibly shaken. Lost in his thoughts, he nearly crashed into someone. "Sorry!" Blake apologized profusely, his wings fluttering nervously and getting even more blood on his uniform.
(I like it.But then would Dani and Joshua already be friends? 'Cause at this point Dani needs a familiar and friendly face.)
(ech failed lemme rewrite)
(Hahahahahahaha)
(@TiredOtter okay, THERE we go.)
As Joshua turned the corner, he slammed head first into something…it was definitely not a wall…he was sure he heard at least a slight crunch…Oh crap I just ran into someone! Jerking back from the stranger, he noticed blood…lots of it…dripping EVERYWHERE.
"Um…sir? I think you're bleeding."
Joshua mentally slapped himself for blurting out something so mind-numbingly obvious. Of course he knows he's bleeding, Pabo. What kind of wise guy are you?
In a sudden urge to rectify the situation, he followed with, "I mean…are you okay? You look hurt–uh, I mean, you are hurt, probably, I mean, yeah…"
Josh trailed off, highly intimidated by this brooding figure with an injured wing.
(@Natasha of course they can be friends! ^^)
"Huh? I'll be alright." Blake felt like he'd been woken out of a daze as he warily took in the boy in front of him. He flicked his wings slightly again in agitation, the feeling of blood on it was gross and sticky. Blake paused for another moment to observe how startled the boy was. "Are you okay? Is something wrong?"
(Also, I figured with all of this brooding, and tragic backstories, we needed a resident cinnamon roll. So I'm happy to oblige. XD)
(Yay!!)
(And also lol)
(Lol I agree Josh is the perfect cinnamon roll)
(And also good idea)
Shaking his head rapidly, Josh tried to respond in a way that was at least somewhat coherent.
"Uh, yeah, yeah! I ran into you…obviously. I–uh, sorry. I should've watched where I was going." Joshua's fingers twitched, and he looked down at his feet. Oh shoot not again!
Below his feet, tiny dandelions were sprouting. In an desperate attempt to calm himself, Joshua took a deep breath, pushing all of his jumbled thoughts aside, stopping the growth of the dandelions before they covered the entire sidewalk.
"I'm fine, honest. I just get a little nervous at times…ya know…forget how to talk and all," Joshua quickly started rambling off an apology, "Are you sure you're okay? You look like you got hit by a truck or something." Josh's face turned into a mildly concerned expression towards this injured stranger.
(I am particularly evil at nighttime when I can't sleep. Which is why Dani has a lot of tragic this happen to her. :))
(@Natasha Ah~ I see. XD Also, I'm glad you like my little cinnamon roll boy. ^^)
(I feel bad laughing at Joshua but I can't stop.)
