Papa knows what's good.

We are okay.

[theysaythatitgetsbetter]

Oh-? Why are you here?

What's your name?

I... I'm Cyrus. [In the background, young-sounding: "No you're not, silly! You're-" No more words deciphered, sound muffled.] My name's Cyrus.

How old are you?

I'm... eighteen. I think. I hope.

What are your pronouns?

Oh- I suppose he/him? I'm... Not sure. Never had time to think about it.

You've been seeing things, haven't you?

What-? I don't know what you're talking about. I'm normal.

The ghosts following you hint otherwise...

There's nothing there. You're imagining things.

...what?

What's your name?

My name? It's uh- it's. Travis? But I'd like to go by- [muffled noise, awkward laughter "...you're not old enough to safely say that.."]

How old are you?

I'm about fifteen? Somewhere between fifteen and sixteen, anyway.

What are your pronouns?

I think it's- [pause] -it's he/him.

Who's your godly parent?

What's that?

You know what you are.

...what's that supposed to mean? I haven't read whatever fantasy book or whatever the hell you're referencing. I'm not as nerdy as I look.

Will you be my friend?!

What's your name?

I'm Samantha! Daddy calls me Sammy though!

How old are you?

I'm eleven!

What are your pronouns?

What's that mean? The others said he and him... oh! Is it the way daddy calls us? He always says sweetie and honey and stuff! (She/her)

I bet your life's exciting and unique.

Oh yeah, lots of things happen! Sometimes I don't understand them, but they happen anyway! I like it!

Their connections:

People tend to avoid me. I'm not quite sure why.

I've got none. I'm not a very... social person.

Daddy says friends can make you be hurt...

As always look under the cut for ooc stuff!

Hello hello! This is my first multiperson blog lol- and they've got some really interesting lore cooking up in my head that I'm gonna need to write down so I don't forget it lol-

They're mere concepts right now but I can tell you that they're siblings... in a way. Anyway, without further ado:

HELLO CYRUS

"ACK-!" Cyrus let himsef to let out a yelp, looking at the odd creature- he then looked around as if making sure nothing happened. "Don't... don't be so loud... what do you want, anyway?"

[theysaythatitgetsbetter]

[Caligula was, despite what his annoying nephew might tell you,NOT on another bender,he was just.. sightseeing,in a random city...that he doesn't remember arriving at...okay so maybe it was a BIT of a bender,but it's fine,incitatus was with him and he was a responsible horse, even if he's lost him somewhere some time ago,it was probably fine.

right as he was realizing he might be a little bit fucked he trips over another person,ow.]

@novus-helios

Cyrus was out on a walk, because well, he was allowed to do that- he could even be alone! Outside! Ever since turning eighteen he was allowed more. He could even pick a nickname- not that his dad called him it that often, if at all, but hey! At least he could be open about it now!

Either way, he was walking, enjoying his new freedoms, when suddenly a man tripped over him- and knocked him over in the process, since he was... incredibly light. He groaned and rubbed his hand where he scraped himself, it stung... "Urgh-" He shivered, suddenly feeling really cold. He could've sworn he heard whispers for a brief moment before shaking his head and returning to normal. He looked at the stranger, deciding it would just be better to apologize and not cause more trouble. "...I'm terribly sorry, sir."

[novus-helios]

[he squints his eyes a little, who the hell was this tiny toothpick looking thing]

hrrrmg..

[he answers very intelligently before getting up,man he did not feel like dealing with other people when incitatus wasn't Around.]

you seen a horse around here?

[he doesn't particularly care how crazy he looks,he wanted his horse back..and also to get back to work,or something like that

he fixes up his jacket and continues]

all white,goes by incitatus,kind of an ass?

[theysaythatitgetsbetter]

"Excuse me-?" The teen looked confused, and honestly he was- why was this guy looking for a horse? In the middle of West Virginia? Was he okay? Cyrus stood up, his vision going a little hazy- he could see the man's skeleton for a split second, and- somehow could feel something was off here.

He decided not to dig into it, he's already felt like a freak enough today... maybe he shouldn't have even come out of the house in the morning. "I, uh, I haven't seen any horses. Sorry."

[novus-helios]

[he rubs his temples, gods this was gonna be a long day]

Jupiter and all the gods above preserve my sanity

right,no clue what i expected, honestly. if you do,send him my way, he'll know what you're talking about...

[which way was "his way" exactly? who knows.]

[theysaythatitgetsbetter]

Brushing off that... situation... He decided to just focus on staying safe. No matter how weird he felt, he could sense something dangerous about this man, he couldn't quite place it, couldn't explain it, but something felt threatening. "God..."

"Uh, sure? I guess?" Maybe if he plays along until the man leaves, maybe he'll stay out of trouble. He just hoped he was picking the right words and such.

[novus-helios]

[he catches the mutter and smiles, less "friendly" and more like a shark smelling blood in the water]

you got that right at least. maybe not every mortal is completely useless.

[he laughs to himself,this was mostly for his own entertainment,see how the kid reacts,how long he can Needle him, maybe if he's lucky he'll send him running for the hills]

just kidding,you are, that's kind of the point.

[theysaythatitgetsbetter]

"Oookayyy..." Did he want to ask? Absolutely not. Maybe this dude was having some kinda manic episode or some shit. Either way, he didn't want to get involved or escalate it or anything like that- he just wanted to go and get a snack from the grocery store, man.

Even if this guy felt. Odd. Even if it made Cyrus uneasy to think about why he feels like this guy is threatening just by presence alone. "Whatever you wanna think, man..." He backed away a little, just to create a bit of distance between the two of them.
