“ glitch! “

the small lil backpack they were carrying was dropped unceremoniously , wings subconsciously fluttering in joy that they started to hover , waving excitedly to the other on the sidewalk . 

“ no one told me you were coming for the trip too! “

the house she woke up in was not her own .

that was her first major clue that something was wrong . the second was that the hometown she saw looked familiar enough ... but just enough about some things were off . was she dreaming ? trapped in a fake version of reality conjured up by her unconscious mind ? 

nervously , she walked down the concrete sidewalk , trying her best to ignore the gazes she got her way ... it felt like how she had felt the first time she walked around as herself , and not as --

bump !

she falls back , after colliding with ... something . she feels a sharp pain in her wing , feathers on her elbow beginning to turn from blue to red as she scraped it against the sidewalk from the landing . eyes squint in pain behind glasses as she looks over to see ...

“ w-what.....? “

@movingcastlle​ // starter call.

being on the run , trying to find a place for shelter ... it wasn’t fun . it never should be fun in the first place , but ... his mind raced , every time he saw someone staring at him . every time he was caught taking food , his knees would finally give out after who knows how long of sprinting .

such as is the case right now ; the grimwalker laid on the ground , exhausted after his latest escape , beside a path as flapjack landed beside him , calling out to him .

“ sssshhh, little buddy. i-i’m fine. “

another chirp .

“ no, i’m not lying! just... give me a second.... “

and so he sits , collecting his breath , eyes closed and unaware of the surroundings .

@legendcrown​ // starter call.

wait right here . that was his request ...

that didn’t make sense . none of this made sense , right ? where was lancer , where was everyone ... hey , wait . why is kris walking off ???

she leans against the building , watching the human walk off , back where they entered . and once they were out of sight ... she practically leaps over to the prince , and shakes him by the shoulders like a toy !

“ okay, seriously, rals! what’s going on here??? “

‘ one day, your mom’s gonna get sick of you, you little freak. and as soon as that happens... someone might make you disappear. and she’ll finally realize how happy she was without you. ‘

throughout the time she’s hung out with kris , since the dark world , that moment haunted her . all the moments from before haunted her . kris seemed to enjoy hanging out , but ... she never apologized for any of it .

for that , for everything else before , for disregarding the prophecy , to beating them up in the dark world ... her mind races between all those memories as she stares out the window beside the both of them , head resting between arms on the table separating her and kris . it’s been a long silence now , having run out of conversation topics just about a minute ago . but ...

“ .............i’m sorry, kris. “

it’s soft , barely audible in comparison to her usual tone and volume , but it’s there . eyes are still glued to the window , hands now gripping into the cloth of her jacket .

@goldenguarded​ // starter call.

“ you’re getting really good at this. “

she holds the article of cloth in her hands , rubbing the stitches with her thumbs as she looked at the design . hunter’s skills with that machine were impressive , after just a few months in the realm . she could barely get anything done with it herself ...

“ how long did it take you ? “

she looks away , back to him with a soft smile on her face .

@ahrencmeptn​ // starter call.

school had just been called off for the day , and berdly was wracked with anxiety . not about the usual things , no no no . she was worried about noelle , and what she had planned to talk about with her . ever since that weird dream a week ago , she had been thinking ... about a lot of things . reflections of the past , reflections in the mirror ... about who she was . feelings that resurfaced after being buried for so long . walking out of the doors to the school , she stops to wait for her friend ( did she ... ever consider her a friend ? ) and puts a wing out in front of her to stop the monster , before sheepishly realizing what she had rudely done and bringing it back .

“ noelle? can... can we talk? “

her voice is shaking .

“ somewhere private, preferably? it’s... something i need to share. “

@maternas​ // starter call .

there’s a flash from above , a bright burst of yellow light that just as quickly as it appeared , it vanished . there’s a scream , shrill and panicked , that cuts off abruptly .

in the plot of golden flowers that were gazed upon by the light above , laid a boy . he looked human in appearance , yet the pointed ears stood out . he wore a simple sweater and jeans , which had been lightly torn and burnt . with a groan of pain , he pushes his hands down into the dirt and petals below him as a red bird flew down to his shoulder , chirping into his ear .

“ i’m okay, flapjack... just-- hiss --a bruise. “

he tries to stand , but his knees give out , falling down again as flapjack’s chirps quickened .

it seems he hasn’t taken his surroundings into thought quite yet , still trying to recover from the fall , distracted by the avian .
