Time: Afternoon
Style: Whatever you want!
Status: Open!

[Hey, Vatheonites, there seems to be a young boy with blond hair and a very rugged look standing in the middle of the plaza, looking around with a worried glance.]

Mother! Where are you? Mother?

[He gazes upward at the "sky" seeing the island

Comments

[nightknighted]

[Have a ten-year-old, Jacob. He is lost and confused and flocking to a person who appears to be just as lost and confused.]

...are you lost too?

[listenstomom]

[Jacob recoils slightly at the sight of the boy, but not because of his appearance or anything. You see, young Jacob here has been told not to talk with the other people on the island by his mother, and so, like the good by he is, he tries to follow that rule as much as he can.]

[He stares suspiciously at Johnny.]

Are you one of them?

[nightknighted]

[Have a confused look. He doesn't understand what's going on. One minute he's running through the citadel's roads and the next he's under water.]

Who's them?

[listenstomom]

The others. You have to be. Mother told me to stay away from people like you.

[dreamedofescape]

[....Oh man, another deaged person like himself. And even then, he wasn't lucky enough to remember like he did. Man, this was awkward, but... he felt like he owed the kid this much for what he did as an adult.]

You alright, kid? [Have a fourteen, maybe fifteen-year-old Riku.]

[listenstomom]

I'm fine.

[He glances suspiciously at Riku, body tense as if he's ready to flee.]

Who are you? Where am I?

[dreamedofescape]

[He merely shrugs, trying to show that he means no harm.]

Riku. And you're in a place called Vatheon.

[listenstomom]

What happened to the island? Why is it up there?

[And he points at its dark silhouette up through the dome.]

Did you have something to do with this?

[kittenofkai]

[ Yukimura would be very concerned about Jacob plight.

That is, if he was not moving at ninety-miles an hour and promptly slamming into Jacob, having not noticed him there. ]

Ooaff!

[listenstomom]

[Jacob doesn't even have a chance to say anything when he's on the ground, trying to get whatever is on him off.]

W-what?! Get off!

[kittenofkai]

[ Yukimura quickly scrambles to his feet, looking as startled as Jacob. ]

I am sorry! I did not see you there! Are you okay? Do you need help up?

[thetrollprince]

[This little boy is being watched by another little boy. Of course, Izaya is sort of hiding behind a pillar of sorts and bundled in his now over-sized jacket. Oh yes. He is so well hidden.

Well. Except for when he suddenly skips out a bit jubilantly and obviously.]

What're you talking about?

[His voice is cheerful but distinctly demanding and nosy- about as much as any normal ten year old's voice would be.]

[listenstomom]

[Jacob narrows his eyes at the boy, cautious. Mother told him not to interact with the others. But he had to figure out where he was...and another child shouldn't harm him like the big men with spears would, right? He ignores the question.]

...Where am I?

[thetrollprince]

[This Izaya- well he's not quite as malicious or bad. He's a little snared but mostly has the general innocence of a ten year old. Probably a little too clever for his own good though.]

Vatheon~. [He figured that out pretty quickly. So naturally he sounds a bit proud.]

I'm Izaaaya-. and you're pret-ty weird. But that's okay. My mom says that weird people are always the most interesting.

[listenstomom]

Vatheon? What sort of place is that?

[He cocks his head slightly, trying to figure out what Izaya is going on about.]

Weird? What does weird mean?

[20sweeps]

[> Bother this strange little boy with strange giant alien.]

You chill there, lil' dogg?

[That is coming from somewhere behind him and up. Way up. Looks like Gamzee might be setting some height records here. Height and hair records. And horn records. Oh this meeting is going to be fun.]

[listenstomom]

[Huh what was that voice OH MY GOD WHAT IS THIS HUGE CREATURE SOMEBODY HELP ME AHHHHHHH]

[Don't mind Jacob, he'll just be backing up in terror, wishing he had his handmade spear around. WHAT IS THIS.]

W-who are you?! What are you?

[20sweeps]

Ah, shit. It's cool. I ain't gonna be harshing you, lil' bro.

[Gamzee holds up his hands, though the fact that those are hugs and each finger tipped with a sharp claw possibly might not win him any trust.]

I'm Gamzee. I'm like a fuckin' troll. I thought all the motherfuckers in this hood up and knew what is motherfuckin' what when it comes to that shit.

[They were not exactly underground. Well. Eridan was. Sort of.]

[listenstomom]

You-you're going to eat me, aren't you?

[He just boggles at Gamzee, not understanding half the words he is using. All he knows is that there is a large thing with horns and claws walking towards him and he is in trouble.]

Please don't eat me!
