Take care of my debts~ Independent Cross Marian From D.Gray-Man Penned By Genesis Private Do whatever as you please

[judgeandsong]

⌠ℂ⌡ ❛How long has it been?❜ Removing the smoke from his lips that one lone scarlet hue falls upon the Innocence clad in black, while he was not much of a man to keep track of the flow of time anymore it had become rather ... Irrelevant, he could tell that at least something considerable had passed, flicking the cigarette off to the side Cross offered a glove-clad hand to the other.

⌠ℂ⌡ Watching quietly as the other took the bottle within his hands, it was stupid and extremely sentimental of him to do. Yet, Cross did not care about the implications this was something that they shared, no one else could ever understand even for a moment. Yet, the mention of getting wasted on the floor took the General a moment to remember, before an oh so rare smile appeared on usually expressionless features. ❛I do remember that we were there for so long.❜ Without a care in the world ... Well until they finally got off the floor like a bunch of hobo's and went to an actual bed.

“but if there’s people UPSIDE DOWN from us, wouldn’t they be upside down?? checkmate.”

⌠ℂ⌡ ❛No, because the center of gravity keeps them right side up at all times.❜ No hesitation.

“THANK YOU.”

“the earth is flat how else do you explain why people aren’t upside down on the other side of the world.”

⌠ℂ⌡ ❛Gravity: the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass. For most purposes Newton's laws of gravity apply, with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account.❜

Gives him the LOOK:tm:. CROSS. C R OS S .

⌠ℂ⌡ ❛You're all wrong, the earth is not perfectly round it is a bumpy sphere due to the many; mountains, providences, lakes, rives, buildings.--❜ There he goes.

THE EARTH IS FLAT!!!

milleadh

“Cross for the love of all that’s good PLEASE tell them it’s round.”

⌠ℂ⌡ He seems to merely silently stare at them both for an abnormal amount of time, there is no expression upon his features before he slowly cracks a smile. 

❛The earth is ...❜

[judgeandsong]

⌠ℂ⌡ The earth is flat, the earth is round, he does not particularly care who's right who's wrong. None of you are scientists, for how could they know the truth?

[judgeandsong]

⌠ℂ⌡ Bounds onto Deak's offered open hand the moment he saw it, only to sway his tail off the side of the other's hand and stare up at him. Upon hearing the hello Tim reached up with his two little front paws to wiggle them at Deak, having a hard time staying upright he had to drop to all fours before raising back up again like a little rocking horse. There's a large squeak before Tim flops over in the open hand, brushing his paws gently with soft feathers upon others skin.

ALLEN

               “Good, I’m glad.”

       He laughed softly, cradling the small golden creature in his hands. The small hugs and gently affection was heartwarming. He had missed little Tim so much, yet, he has also missed another man. The one currently reading a cigarette a bit out of the ways. Slowly, silver eyes glanced towards him. 

                 “Master had been doing okay… right?”

⌠ℂ⌡ A glance over in Cross's direction when Allen asked if Cross had been doing okay, Tim seemed to merely peek from the boy's arms for a few seconds. Before climbing up Allen's clothes to his shoulder the place he usually perched other than the head, pawing at the boy's ear as if trying to tell him something with a flap of his wings. Cross seemed to glance over at this point as his attention was grabbed, seeing Tim paw repeatedly he blew out a thin line of smoke before looking away again.

[judgeandsong]

ALLEN

       He gently squished the little creations cheeks before giving him a few more playful nuzzles. He couldn’t help it, he really does love and adores Tim. Even if he had a tendency to get eaten by the occasional cat. He was so transfixed by the little creature he didn’t even see his master’s ghost of a smile. 

      “I hope you haven’t been getting into trouble. No more cats have tried to eat you right?”

⌠ℂ⌡ A shake of the little orb indicated that a cat has not tried to nip him yet, even though that could change at any given moment without a moments notice. Little squeaks that could be akin to purrs escaping the Golem, giving Allen's nose a little hug with his tiny feather paws in true delight. Cross, on the other hand, hand decided to walk away and light up a smoke to keep to himself.

[judgeandsong]

ALLEN

      Seeing the small golden sphere made his eyes nearly water. Timcanpy! Tim was okay, and with Cross! What a relief! A bright laugh left him as he couldn’t help but embrace the energetic golden orb with his own nuzzles in return. 

    “Tim! I’ve missed you too buddy! I will make sure to share dinner with you tonight, okay?”

⌠ℂ⌡ Tim squeaks in utter delight once he was held and nuzzled back, pawing at Allen's face with soft feather covered paws to show how happy he was. Cross remains silent and merely watches the two's little reunion, but there is a hidden smile behind his long scarlet-colored hair.

MIKU

 †                  They offer a nod of appreciation, taking the glass. They aren’t a personal fan of shots, but hell, everyone was dying here, all of their days were numbered. Might as well. It’s not a few seconds before that shot is knocked back. The warmth of the alcohol is pleasant though. ❛ Why? Well, lord, the man acts like he’s my father. I’m a grown adult, am I not? He’s almost suffocating. That and I have paperwork, no doubt Komui has passed it to him to push onto me. ❜

⌠ℂ⌡ Pulling out a smoke from a pack with the use of his mouth, it is soon slipped back to where the General had pulled it from lighting with unseen fire on his finger. So Tiedoll was still acting like everyone's dad he was not surprised, after knowing the other so long it would be uncanny to hear otherwise. There's a soft 'pfft' type noise at the last bit about paperwork, the one thing he refuses to touch and why he tends to vanish from the Order without a trace regularly. 

❛Tiedoll is not here today.❜

[judgeandsong]

MIKU

 †                  Miku hums, hopping up onto the counter once his hat was placed down. They make sure to keep at least a foot of space between where they land and where his hat is. Slowly they begin kicking they’re feet, tilting their head with a hum as the watch him.  ❛ Ah I see, so today has been hard on you, eh? I was hiding, Tiedoll doesn’t seem like the kind to drink, so where else than a place where liquor is stored? ❜

⌠ℂ⌡ ❛Good choice.❜ Came the response as he leaned against the counter in a very ungraceful manner, pulling the bottle back out of his coat and pouring it into decent sized shot glass he produced passing it over to Miku while he kept the bottle. It seems his expression dictates a question as to why they were hiding in the first place, not that he blamed them Tiedoll could be rather 'Insufferable' given enough time spent with the man.

[judgeandsong]

ALLEN

         The initial reach had startled the young exorcist. Unsure of what to expect. Yet the hand was gentle if not firm as it rested on to the top of his head to ruffle white locks. It was slightly comforting actually… for it to be coming from this man. A man that was almost like a… well. 

                         “I’ve missed you.”

⌠ℂ⌡ There is no indication of a smile upon the General's features, in fact, the expression is rather difficult to read even as Allen appeared to be startled at first. The words that followed still earned little reaction from Cross, only for his hand to stop ruffling the boy's hair hand hold out his hand. Where Tim suddenly sprung forth and practically tackled into Allen's cheek, giving him nuzzles of a lifetime!

[judgeandsong]

MIKU

 †                   They just?? Saw a man so beautiful they want to cry??? Maybe on opposite day. Time to kick the door back open and contort their way back out. ❛ What? No ‘hello’? Has someone had a worse day than usual? ❜

⌠ℂ⌡ The bottle is tucked into his coat where it seems to vanish without a trace as he faces Miku, quietly staring before a hand rose to remove the hat from his head to place upon the counter. There's no indication that Cross was going to speak, but his body language was enough of an answer to state a yes ... Then again when was there ever a good day? A gesture to the cabinet, and how Miku was just hiding with that weird body contortion.

Head canon

BE WARNED I CAN’T POSSIBLY TRIGGER TAG THIS THING WITH HOW MANY THERE ARE, but this is my back story I came up with for my Cross. 

READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.

When Cross was born he was taken by his father to an orphanage as he wanted nothing to do with him, he had no name and no indication of his true heritage ( I headcanon his mother to be the first Noah of ability because of his magic). As he grew up he was a stark contrast to how he acts now, just a shy timid little boy who would hide from the tiniest of sounds. The head Nun at the orphanage gave him the name 'Cross' one day on accident when she was referring to the rosary she wore that he had taken a liking too, ever since then he kept that name as he grew up the boy wanted to be a scientist. A small toy was always his side that he had created, a toy that would one day become Timcampi it was one of his most treasured items. One day when Cross followed those who he thought were his friends, but really only tolerated his presence to a graveyard to play Cowboys and Indians. An Akuma unexpectedly appeared and the other boys ran off in fear, one dropped a toy gun they had been playing with as Cross was left to face this monster alone. 

Before he could run the Akuma shot out a blast of fire which he could not move away from in time, it hit and coated his body in flame more precise the right side of his face. Even with all the blood and terrible burns he suffered Cross still tried to run, only to trip near the toy gun to which he took into his hands. Turning over and pointing it at the Akuma he knew it would do nothing, but something made him pull the trigger that day. A bullet whiter than fresh snow shot forth and pierced the Akuma right then an there, causing it to vanish into thin air after exploding outwardly (Judgement). Panting heavily the scarlet-haired boy stared at the toy gun as it slowly turned into a white and gold gun, but still resembled that of a toy. Afraid, he ran back to the Orphanage where he thought it would be safe, only, once he entered the entire building collapsed in on itself as more Akuma appeared that had been attacking the town. Soon Exorcist's arrived and destroyed the Akuma as the people rejoiced, Cross was trapped under heavy rubble no one but the Nun who had raised him could see his position and she tried to keep it that way. 

The Akuma was gone, but soon Cross saw a kid die by the Exorcist's hands to which his only good eye left widened in horror as one by one each remaining living person was killed. Unable to watch he tore his gaze away from the woman who raised him smiled even as she was murdered in front of him, the Exorcist's laughed saying now all the Akuma were dealt with. An unspeakable rage built up inside the boy as he waited for the Exorcist's to leave before struggling to free himself, once the rubble gave way he stood by the old woman's body. Vowing to take her last name 'Marian' and give it a good name before running off into the streets with her Rosary that she had given him in hand. After weeks of living on the streets and trying to stay alive, Cross soon came across a man by accident when he was trying to steal. The man was not happy about this and Cross was forced to work many odd jobs, which soon only turned into him working for his own money. As Cross got older the man presented much more difficult tasks thinking the teen could handle it, eventually Cross became the man's apprentice working on cheating at gambling and many other legal things just to get back. 

The day Cross turned sixteen the man set him free saying he could have left at any point, just as Cross was about to leave the man placed a hat upon the teens head that he had always worn (the hat that would become his General hat). With a careful hand placed upon the hat, Cross made his way out into the world once again, attempting to master his magic that he had learned about during his time in 'training'. Still aspiring to be a scientist but use his magic freely there was only one place he could go: The Black Order' the place that had sent those Exorcist's to the town that one day, while Cross despised the Order it was all he could do. So, he joined an soon became Chief of the European Branch after powering through the ranks, after a few years Cross started to develop a better much stronger body for his Innocence. From a toy gun to a snub-nosed revolver, to the beautiful revolver we see to this day he had broken the General limit long before, but wanted to stay a scientist so he always kept his true power hidden. Until one day, he could no longer and he was assigned to be a General in the Order. 

The first mission he was sent on he had a partner, he name was Maria another woman who had just become an Exorcist from a mere scientist. Neither of them knew what they were doing and Maria died mid-battle, Cross would have as well but his toying with black magic when he was younger had made him an accidental immortal who could only die by being shot by his own gun Judgement. Maria had been his best friend during the times in the science division, so he tried to bring her back to live with his magic only it failed and she became a mindless doll (now Grave Of Maria). After that Cross started appearing less and less at the Order, only to one day vanish with a mission to put a stop to the Earl Akuma production factory.
