Especially a certain... two people.

I didn't think of a heterosexual couple for this one. OTL

Lute would probably check up on Rose. He's not happy about running out on her like that hahahaha. Wait, Sebastian's fine too na, right?

Also, if anyone wants to include Lute in a scene, go ahead! I won't be online for the better half of tomorr- ... today because it's enrollment. *heavy breathing*

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Thug Cephalogod said If she kept exhaustin her magic like dis dat biiiiatch would end up fadin away as Nobodies whoz ass used up all they magic was did, like even before tha battle could be won. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch.

omfg

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Michi said Also, I've been pretty curious ^^

What was everyone's life like a year before Nowhere? What were the Nobodies' lives like before they became guides? Do the humans regret getting on the train (Now that everything's gone to hell and people are dying xD) and do the guides regret their decision to accompany the humans? (I'm guessing Songbird is really regretting it, haha)

Also, at this point, they've been missing for almost two months already.

Have their families given up hope? And have some even thrown funerals for them already?

I only saw this now hahahahahaha- *shot*

Songbird

Songbird and Brandy are very close. He personally thinks that Brandy needs more sleep.

Songbird repeatedly mentioned his opinion of Martini's fashion "obsession" IC, so I won't repeat. There's a protective undertone to their friendship though. He likes it when she's happy so anything that makes Martini sad is a big fat "NO" in Songbird's opinion, unless if it includes him wearing one of her designs.

The humans that Songbird "bonded" with the most are Leila and Jasper, mostly because their behavior didn't irritate him. He thinks they're nice and has already taken on the "big brother/protector" role for the two, but for the others... He thinks Riley jumps around too much but doesn't have an issue with Ace since they hadn't interacted a lot. He thinks Harper is "cute" like a tiny little dog trying to bark at a much bigger one, but that's probably Martini's opinion rubbing off on him.

Is currently holding a grudge against some of the humans, namely Lesley, Inadi and Leon (ehhh). Doesn't actually mind the spear jabbing since he can just go and break Inadi's arm if he actually made true on the threat and is angrier at having seen Martini cry.

I tackled Songbird's past both in the IC and in his weebly bio. ^ o ^ /

He regrets being a guide because the humans flipping out at them like that was a shitty thing to do, but deep inside he's worrying about how to fix their relationship and maybe go back to at least working terms since he knows they'll need his help.

Gotta fix his arm first doe

Avian

Avian and the other guides were okay. Victoria is a fan of Martini so Avian knows who she is, and he bumped into Songbird a lot back when he was still a traveler.

He thinks of all the Lost Souls as his kids and adores them. :D He thought that Inadi and Hakuren just needed some time to thaw out, and that Ace and Lesley showed great fortitude despite the trying situation. He's basically the fine with everyone even after that bit with the fight, since he understands that they have questions they needed answers to, but he thinks that it was seriously the wrong time to have done that.

Avian and Victoria were pretty much war heroes both in Sol and Aven, so they have a comfortable and peaceful life with the occasional couple spat. Avian, unbeknownst to Vicky hahahaha, was from a minor branch of the royal family in Aven; his parents were renowned dragonlords and most of the members of his family worked for the government as knights or ministers. He wasn't "compatible" with any dragon so he just ended up traveling all over Nowhere, which is what he wanted instead of being tied to tradition and all that royal fancy-shmancy stuff, but he returned during the War to protect Aven.

Before being assigned as a guide (and dying, may I add), Avian was having a "fun" life. Workload was infinitely smaller since Sol was a tranquil place to begin with, and he was starting to settle in on their new home. He was also considering asking Vicky about children, but always chickens out of it because lately she seemed pissed off at him for some reason.

I'd love to say that he regrets being a guide because it took his life, but he doesn't. Really. That's how golden Avian is OTL

(Up in fluffy Nowhere Heaven) Avian's happy Lesley is alive and that his death amounted for something, but feels depressed that he wasn't able to help more. Also feels horrendously sad at the fact that he and Vicky parted on angry terms.

Papa A's proud of his babies for surviving that mean ol' hag, yo!

But he's dead and the aforementioned feelings are simply my ruminations. I don't know if that's what he's feeling up in Nowhere Heaven ahahaha.

... Because there's no Nowhere Heaven.

Numair

I'm not Numair's creator so I'll try to recall what SilverWishes wrote for him, but these are my stuff...

Gary!
The first time they met... He had a tiny crush on her but then she told him to strip.

Gary pretty much broke Numair down with her hyperactivity and constant demands to see "the buns". At first he couldn't deal with it and stayed as far away as he could from her, but eventually got accustomed to her presence (under threat of death from the pole).

Thinks she and Sacha have that platonic soulmate thing going on.

Also doesn't like it when Gary beats him within five moves in dama. Dislikes it more when she counters his insults with "That's ad hominem and it isn't a real argument, ignoramus". Thinks if she wants people to respect her she should stop thwacking with the pole and just show them how much of a genius she is.

Sacha!
Numair thinks Sacha's amazing in a St. Bernard in the mountains a.k.a "I'll save you from the evil pink-haired hobbit" sort of way. Sacha keeps Gary away from the kitchen which means less poison for him to ingest one way or another, so he's really thankful for that.

He goes to help with Sacha's chores and enjoys the quiet cleaning time.

Luke!
BRO! BROOOOOOO-

They're chill. They talk about games a lot and their sense of humor is pretty much spot-on hahaha

They shiver in fear together when Gary's in a bad mood. He winces whenever Gary kicks Luke in the nuts.

C!
She's okay. He just finds it weird when she spaces out and mumbles something to herself. Sometimes he thinks she's asleep and then she suddenly perks up and looks at the curtains... e n e

In his first days with the HF he thought he would wake up in the middle of the night to see her standing over him, a pipe in one hand and that constant apathetic look on her face. Combined with a near death experience and a lot of broken bones, it took him days to calm down, which aggravated his condition. They eventually "poisoned" Numair just to get him to sleep.

He's the pack mule whenever C goes shopping for home decor.

A year before:
Numair was just about recovering from his surfing accident around this time, I think. This was the period of time where he basically dropped everything and remained inside his room, depressed about everything in life.

When he recovered, he joined another surfing competition to show everyone he was back, and he felt okay enough to go through the event. He thought he would be able to do it and joined the other competitors out on the beach, but the sight and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore just sent memories flooding back and he was unable to move.

After bailing out on that event, he resumed living as a hermit, appalled at his weakness and inability to do the one thing he loved the most in life.

Regret?:
He'd do anything if it meant getting over his phobia.

Missing:
Numair lives on his own since his parents are working abroad, and they don't keep communication... A handful of friends would probably be concerned, but would think he was just holing himself up in his house since he pretty much shut everyone out after the NDE.

The goodwill Mattis extended by picking Lute up and setting him on his feet was utterly wasted; the virtuoso simply crumbled back to the ground, the epitome of unconsciousness while his familiar threw a fit that actually might have stunned the thief if he heard its contents.

Everything that happened past that was gone for Lute.

“Blufufufufuwegh,” Something weird was in his mouth. It was grainy and salty. The virtuoso lifted his face from the ground and spat out tiny globules of dirt. “Oh Gods did I just…!? Eeeeew!” The last part of Lute’s late reaction was uttered in a high-pitched voice before he got up, struck by a memory of…?

Hey, where was Bunnyface anyway?

Lute yelped and covered his ears when Delilah’s voice exploded within his head. She had just about had it with his clumsiness! When usually it could come off as stupid but bearable, he just had to make a huge idiot of himself by tripping like that on a mission! “Ow ow ow ow, stop it! I’ll do better next time!” The virtuoso cried out just as Aria approached, which took Delilah’s attention away from his blunder.

Nobody seemed too hurt… As for the morale, he wasn’t too sure about how everybody felt about the thieves escaping, but he was fine with it. If they struck again, then the Pride could come over and stop them again. Lute shrugged and set himself to doing something more beneficial than fretting about the matter. He removed his jacket and stuffed it under Moira’s head as a makeshift pillow and fanned her as they waited for the Aliquam medics to arrive.

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Aliquam: Academy of the Arts – Performance Hall

When the wind intensified, Francesca had no choice but to duck for cover behind a row of seats. Her worst fears were realized when more and more chairs were uprooted from the floor, the nails pinning them down flying through the air like shrapnel. One even grazed past her left cheek. Her grapnel shot out, trying to deflect or catch objects that were hurtling too close, but with the staggering amount of potential weapons whipping around...

'Please stop... This isn't you.'

The Masked Phantom was battered out of the room by a giant construct after the hurricane he had summoned was dispelled by the other wind mage. The fixtures sent flying around the room froze in their places before clattering to the floor, all except the ones near and above Xandra and Angel. These ones were gently lowered by trembling vines of shadow, ones that retreated balefully to a figure shrouded in black, almost completely unrecognizable thanks to the sheer amount of tendrils that had sprouted from her arms.

Before most of the objects were even laid down properly, the shadows gave out and their user let out a weary gasp. Francesca doubled over with her arms crossed over her chest, her fingers pressing hard against her sides as she gulped in a lungful of the cold night air. She forced herself up and took a step back, disoriented, when Jay’s voice came through the earpiece. They shared a glance and Francesca smiled gently, and then nodded. He offered his hand to the priestess cowering in front of him.

“… Mattis, Fabian. Stand down. Our mission objectives have changed. Jay and I will assist the leader and find a way out. Mattis, I trust you will find a way to escape along with Fabian… Neither of you will return for us unless I have given you the order to, comprenez-vous? Now go,” Francesca murmured into the communicator, suppressing the pain looming from within her temples as she spoke. Oh Gods…

“I’m here to fight you too!” Lute cried out as he swayed from one foot to another. With his place in front of the entrance, the doors exploding actually sent him flying past Mattis. “Okay, scratch that, I’m not really… Ugh,” The virtuoso mumbled, “Gimme a minute. There’s birds everywhere.”

Bunnyface seemed cool for a psycho anyway, so what’s a few requests?

"You gotta go through me." Moira said.

Delilah wasn’t about to let Lute go to sleep after that. ‘Oi, kid. You gonna let the big red lady take a few more hits in that state of hers!? Get up, you limp chicken!’ She screeched and after a few more of different, yet still scathing, lines Lute had lost the peace of mind to wander off to dreamland.

He swung his sword and readied, then charged at the thief.

Except he failed to notice a rock jutting out from the courtyard soil and tripped, skidding to a stop a few feet away from Mattis.

I hope nobody minds if I go write up my post now, so Lulu's bit doesn't have to cover much. Thanks for the well-wishes guys! :D

Oh geez, I hope Riley feels better soon :(

Edit: Squeeee- ahem. I'm not sure what to do with the thieves so I'll just go ahead with my post. It's up to you guys if you wanna catch 'em and all that~ (this is the part I'm not sure about, but I guess it's everyone's call eh :D)
