xinoehp512 he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 "I'm Pheonix..." He trailed off, his eyes drawn to the figure next to him. "Is he alright?" he asked.
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 Star followed his eyes to... Corpse? "Is who alright, dear?"
xinoehp512 he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 "Him," said Pheonix, pointing at Corpse.
The Ward's Guard he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 The creature glared at the young Narrator, but stayed silent. Whatever Star was going to do to him, it better be quick.
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 "Oh. That's..." Star trailed off, looking between Corpse and Pheonix. The boy showed no fear or disgust whatsoever, only concern. How in the world...? "That's just Corpse. It's my... associate."
xinoehp512 he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 "He looks... sick," said Pheonix. "Is he supposed to look that way?" 1
The Ward's Guard he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 A strange, snorting sound came from the decaying creature.
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 Star shrugged. "That's how I found it. Are you okay? Do you need anything?"
xinoehp512 he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 21 minutes ago, The Ward's Guard said: A strange, snorting sound came from the decaying creature. Pheonix jumped slightly at the sound. 20 minutes ago, Zephrun's Imperium said: Star shrugged. "That's how I found it. Are you okay? Do you need anything?" "Uh... no. I don't think so?"
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) "Alright. If you say so." Star put her hand on his shoulder to comfort him instinctively when he flinched, surprised that she couldn't feel muscles underneath the fabric of his black and white shirt, since most Narrators - including herself - chose to have sculpted bodies. There was something fundamentally different about this man. She could feel Corpse begging her to kill him, but... How could she? The poor thing looked like he could have been blown over by a strong gust of wind and for some reason, she felt the need to protect him. He was just a boy, after all. "Well, I'm sorry Shadow did that to you." Edited February 10, 2022 by Zephrun's Imperium
xinoehp512 he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 "Thanks for helping me," replied Phoenix.
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) "Of course, dear." She patted him on the back, careful to be gentle with her gauntleted hands. "If she ever bothers you again, you tell me alright? I'm Narrator Star." Edited February 10, 2022 by Zephrun's Imperium
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 "I'm a telepath," she said, tapping her temple. "Just call out mentally and think about me. I'll find you."
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 She smiled, feeling the urge to hug the poor thing. He looked rather like a candle, actually, with that paper-pale skin and the wavering flame on top. "Well. Nice to meet you, Pheo."
Fallapede Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, The Ward's Guard said: Vulpy chuckled, a smile spreading across his face as he brightened. "You drive a hard bargain, pal." Stepping forward, he offered the package of food to the man. "Best not forg-" The newcomer paused before pushing the package into the miner and looking towards Night's Blossom. "Whoa, and who are you, my Lovely Lady?" @Fallapede "I am Night's Blossom. I know of no context in which it would be appropriate for you to refer to me in the possessive sense." Edited February 10, 2022 by Fallapede 1
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 She smiled. "Hang in there." It was only when she left that she realized... she... smiled. Author, she hadn't smiled genuinely since Maverick had died. The thought left her feeling chilled and she summoned a drink to her hands, chugging it much like Shadow had. "C'mon, Corpse."
The Ward's Guard he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) "Royalty, perhaps?" Vulpine's grin never left his face. "A woman as beautiful as yourself must be royalty." ------ The Corpse followed behind her, glaring at the back of her head. What was that? She had him in her pocket. All she had to do was ask him to go with her for a few moments, and the narrator could be killed without much trouble. Edited February 10, 2022 by The Ward's Guard
Fallapede Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 "I am neither royalty nor especially attractive, at least not by any metric I am familiar with. Is there any link between conventional attractiveness and royal status in these lands?"
The Ward's Guard he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 'Oh, absolutely none, madam. But seeing that the gift to rule is a gift from god, people mean to compliment others by saying that they could be given that gift based off of looks alone."
The Ward's Guard he/him Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 Vulpine didn't turn to face the man, instead focusing entirely on the woman that was before him. "I have to say, you're easily the prettiest woman in this entire mine. And definitely the sexiest."
