(Just posting this to get it out of the way; Talking conversation up ahead)
(Heads up: I used a website to put in Onixus text of speech since he does have a Scottish accent, so please don't put any hate on my if there are some mistakes in his dialogue).
"Onixus wasn't the type of guy to always distance himself from groups, not even if it's with his friends and family. But with Jawbone and his crew were different, not only do they also have the hue flowing from within them, but just by looking at them is a killing reminder on what he has become all thanks to the retired elder. Which he was glad that he was dead. And despite for his father telling him that it wasn't right to be grateful for someone's passing, but after what the retired elder had nearly put him and his sister through sixteen years back, it was the appropriate moment to be thankful for. Even his own sister would agree if she was here with him at this moment.
But then again... she would probably hate this place more than he would. Just the thought of it gave him a chill down his spine. He may hate for what the green hue had did to him, but he'd never regrated the choice he made. Even if time were to restart all over again, he would still made the same decision like he did before, and no one was going to say it otherwise. He was proud of himself for saving his sister when he did, even if the cost was that he may never see her again, but at least he knows that she's safe and probably back at home with their father. Still and probably grieving for his "death", which he doesn't blame them for thinking that way.
He misses them both; but hopefully they're doing alright... hopefully... As he pulled out a little gem from his pocket and lay it flat on the palm of his hand (gently touching it as if he was Gollum), and quietly remembering the times where he and Nebulaura were children, he heard the door slammed open from a few feet away where he was at. If there was one thing that Onixus hates the most out of Jawbone, was him slamming the door like a brute".
Jawbone: Hey Onixus! We bought you some food and some clothes for you to wear since you are a big f*cker. Come on and eat before it gets cold! And PLEASE don't make me drag you out of my room again...!
*He says this with both annoyance and tiredness from his tone. Pretty much it has been like this since after Jawbone and his crew found him and brought him in like a stray. Onixus really hated Jawbone and the others like a vampire with the sun; always finding a way to get on his nerves. But since he was nearly starving to death and he couldn't ignore his stomach like he would sometimes before, he then put up the gem back into his pocket, gotten up on his two feet, and walked over to the kitchen with still aching feet that haven't been recovering since after he was infected by the hue. Walking in the little yet long hallway he made it to the kitchen, but neither of Jawbone's crew were there beside him this time, which was a little concerning for Onixus*
Onixus: Hey, where are yer little friends at?
[He didn't want to ask but his mind had gotten a better toll on him]
Jawbone: Don't mind those two, they've got a few things they like to take care of first. Either that or they don't want to be nearly electrocuted like you tried to earlier.
Onixus: Oh come on, ye aw haed it comin. Besides, it wis I self defense. No near attemptit murder! ye dumb bonehead.
*Jawbone was taken it back before he strike back*
Jawbone: It's "Jawbone", not "Bonehead"! Now hurry up and eat before I decided to throw it all away in the bins.
*He then dashes off outside to smoke, leaving Onixus all alone with five bags of food on the table. All of which have his name on them*
Onixus: Heh, it's almost as gin its nearly ma birthday. Alrichty, let's see whit thon bonehead haed broucht for little ol me.
*Onixus then went up to the table and opened one of the bags; revealing something that he'd never seen before in his life. It was wrapped in aluminum foil and the touch of it was warm yet not too hot and the smell of it was hard to resist either. So he immediately sat done on a chair and opened it up to see what was inside, but he looked a little disappointed to see something that made him feel sick on the inside. Unsure on what it was and starting to feel a little frustrated about it, he called out to Jawbone about it*
Onixus: Hey, jackass! Whit the hell is this sh*t!? An why daes it leuk like sh*t from the inside? An… Whit is this rit an yellow stuff on top o't? Are they strings or something?
*At this point, Jawbone was already having a long day as it is. For not only saving Onixus from a bar fight but also taking him back to his place in one day. Even if it did nearly get him and his crew electrocuted by him at first glance, but even after all of it he still couldn't abandoned him by any chance. Not even after discovering that he too can be somewhat immune to the green hue, which did give him a few questions that he hoped they would be answered soon enough. After putting away his cigarette and throwing it to the side he walked inside to the kitchen to see on what Onixus was complaining about*
Jawbone: So, what is it you wanna show me?
*Onixus then brought up the food to show it to Jawbone*
Jawbone: Oh! This? This right here is one of the best classics in all of the galaxy: A hotdog!
*Onixus wasn't impressed at all, not even after being conformed that it was actually a type of food and not something else*
Onixus: Okay… An whit? Whit else is thare thon A neit tae know aboot this "hotdog"?
*Jawbone was about to say something until he froze in early sentence*
Jawbone: Wha-what do you mean by that...?
Onixus: A mean is thare anythin else thon A neit tae know on why this thin is a delicacy o some sort? An why it is the best thin i aw o the galaxy?…
Jawbone: ... (What the hell does he mean by that? Does he even know what a hotdog even is? Who even is this guy!? And where has he been this entire time)!?!?
*Both worry and concern had overflowed into Jawbone's mind, but he tries to play it cool as if he wasn't too bothered that Onixus never knew or tried a hotdog before*
Jawbone: Well, besides of it being one of the best foods in out there; hotdogs can be very delicious with as many toppings as you want. Like relish, cheese, chilly, anything that makes it look good.
Onixus: ...Yeah, A'm no buyin it…
*This was Jawbone's final straw with Onixus. And out of stubbornness, he picked up the hotdog and shoved it in Onixus's mouth so he can have a taste other than judging it by it appearance*
Jawbone: Here! And don't even bother trying to spit it out either.
*Onixus was about to be pissed until the flavors have immediately kicked in inside his mouth. Both the taste and the savory of it was something that he'd never tasted before, it was as if he tasted the holy light of the high ranked elders. As Onixus was sitting there as if he was daydreaming, Jawbone then decided to leave him alone a bit more*
Jawbone: Hopefully you'll thank me for this.
*Jawbone went to his room to take a shower and put on some clothes afterwards. While he was in the shower he had a good moment to himself; the thought that there were actually other beings out there that are also "somewhat" immune to the green hue other than Osteons, robots and the Agari. Just the thought of it just made him question himself even more than it should, which he finally stopped before it gotten even worse for himself. After putting on his clothes and fixing up his hair one of his crew members called out to him from the front door*
Ribcage: Hey boss! You in here?
Jawbone: [Opens the door] Yeah, what's up?
*Both Ribcage and Knee Cap looked at each other with a bit of hesitation. Jawbone didn't want neither of them to tell him on what they were planning to tell him about, so he walked over to see what they were afraid to tell him about*
Jawbone: Okay you two, this better be about something else other than that Onixus fella-
*Jawbone's sentence was immediately cut off when he saw Onixus's knocked out body on the kitchen table. All of the food bags were either torn to shreds or just ripped open in half, and all of the food that were once there were now gone. (Starving mf). But at least the clothes were put to the side so they wouldn't be all caught up in the mayhem*
Jawbone: Wha-what happened!? I only left him alone for thirty five minutes!
Ribcage: I don't know, we were hoping to ask you the same thing.
Jawbone: This is ridiculous, how did this even-
*Jawbone then noticed that all of Onixus tentacles were covered up in food stains. Guess he must've used them to grab them all in one go*
Jawbone: Why does it look like he'd been shot 57 times?
*Both of his crew members shrugged in response*
Jawbone: ... [Walks over to the small closet and grabs a mop and a bucket] You two go ahead and clean him up and change his clothes, I'll clean up the kitchen and throw away the trash.
Ribcage: Uh... sure, got it. Come on, you grab the bags and I'll carry him to the shower.
*Thankfully it didn't take neither of them too long to organize and patch up Onixus, especially since he was knocked out from his little food coma. After throwing away the trash and washing his hands he went to check on the guys to see if they needed help with anything, which it wasn't an issue after what he saw for himself. Thankfully neither of his guys were harmed during the cleanup with a passed out Onixus on their hands, which means that Jawbone could finally rest after everything on what had happened today*
Jawbone: Ah, finally! Everything is finally over... Now I can finally relax after a long day. [He then picked up a chair to place it in front of his bed with Onixus in it].
*Two of his bandits look at each other and look back at Jawbone as they're not the only ones who also had it rough as well*
Ribcage: Yeah... you sure did boss. You sure did...
*Ribcage then walked up to Jawbone as if he was getting ready to say something else, which he was*
Ribcage: So... are we planning to keep him for a while? Even after he nearly cost us our lives earlier today?
Jawbone: Well... Yeah, sure... Why not? It's not like he has anywhere else to go in the galaxy. Besides, he could be useful for our crew. Who knows, right?
Ribcage: Yeah... I suppose he could be useful to us.
Knee Cap: And speaking of "useful" [reaches into his pocket] this is what I found in his old clothes.
*Knee Cap then threw the little mystery object towards Jawbone. Jawbone then quickly catches it perfectly with his right hand*
Jawbone: What the hell is this?
*Jawbone stared at it confusedly before getting his answer right away*
Knee Cap: That right there is a chalcedony stone. You know, the ones at every jewelry store that. Anyway, I know this because it looked incredibly familiar-and don't get me started with how much those bad boys cost per kg. Here, have a look.
*Jawbone then looked to see on the valuable prices for what this little gemstone has to offer, and it was more than enough, it was impressive*
Jawbone: $15-$30 per kg in jewelry, to $50-$200 per kg if rough or raw eh? ...Not bad, but we'll have to wait till he wakes up so that we can get more of this stuff first.
*He said this while holding the chalcedony on his hand after Knee Cap pulled back his phone. Then immediately one of them asked Jawbone about something before the two of them left the room to also wash up and prepare dinner for themselves*
Ribcage: Are you sure this is a good idea? Even if we have to introduce him to Dolion later on? You know he's probably gonna wanna know about him if he gets a word about him, right?
*Jawbone sits there in silence for a few seconds before answering Ribcage's question*
Jawbone: I'm sure of it...Besides, if we're gonna take down those two mercenaries, we might as well have a backup plan if things go downhill.
Ribcage: ...Okay, have it your way. Imma go ahead and make dinner tonight. Meet you in the kitchen when it's ready.
*Ribcage then closed the door behind him after he and Knee Cap left the room, leaving Jawbone all alone with both Onixus and the chalcedony on his hand still. Nearly an hour has passed and he's still holding onto the gem in his hands with Onixus still asleep on his bed, he looked like he was finally at peace when he sleeps. Wish he could always be like this when he is awake all the time. But then his thoughts were interrupted when Ribcage called in Jawbone to come eat. And so he stood up from his chair and was getting ready to leave his room and letting Onixus to rest easy in peace*
Jawbone: Okay big fella, hope to see you in the morning. Hopefully in a better mood then before.
*As Jawbone was about to leave his room to go eat, Onixus then started to talk in his sleep. He then turned around and walked a little closer to here more clearly on what he was trying to say*
Jawbone: (What the hell is he trying to say)?
*He then leans in a bit closer to try and make up the words on what Onixus was trying to say, until he heard for what appears to be a name that he was calling out*
Onixus: Ne... Nebulaura...? Pl…please… dinnae forget aboot me… ye an dad… please… ma little sister… Please... please... [He says this while also crying in his sleep].
Jawbone: ...Well, sh*t... (He must've had it a lot rougher than I thought, poor dude)...
*Jawbone now feeling a bit of guilt in his pride, felt bad for this abnormal creature that was sleeping on his bed. He then look back at the gem and thought to himself: "Was this a gift from his sister? Were they really that close with each other? And how long have they been apart from each other for so long"?*
"At this point, he didn't want to know about any of that stuff just yet. Not until Onixus feels a little bit more comfortable with his surroundings. And before he could think of anything else, Ribcage then knocked on the door to check on Jawbone*
Ribcage: Hey! Are you okay in there? Hurry up before your food gets cold!
Jawbone: Alright! I'll be there in a second. [He then turns around to see Onixus again before the last time for tonight] ... *Sigh* Okay buddy, you win this round. But don't make me regret this decision.
*He then placed the gem inside of the top drawer that is next to his bed, making sure that it was there for him when he wakes up in the morning*
Jawbone: Try to at least get some rest big guy... Goodnight, Onixus.
*He then turned off the light so that it wouldn't bother Onixus while he sleeps, and finally went to the kitchen to eat with his fellas*
