The insult didn’t seem to affect him much as he followed with a loose limp in his gait.
Rune wrapped her arms with his right arm as they trailed Young-Jae, very similar to how she walked with Mercy. It must be her way of “perching” on their arm.
Mercy rolled her eyes again. ”Unlike you, Finneas, I have no reason not to trust him with Rune. The only one she will not be alone with is you.”
For Rune’s sake, she ignored the small gesture between them. ”Come on, Rune. You'll be free soon.”
She wasn't sure but she thought it was a little colder as she followed Young-Jae out the door.
Walking around, having no idea where he was going, he finally turned to the man.
"Is there any place near your house, like a store or a station?"
He asks him, while Naide steps up to him,
"portal?"
She simply asks Young-Jae,
"No, I'm gonna pick you all up and fly you to a gas station."
He says sarcastically, followed by Naide crossing her arms.
"Quickly moving towards a storm
Moving forward, torn
Into pieces over reasons of what these storms are for
I don't understand why everything I adore
Takes a different form when I squint my eyes"
Grimm drained the small blue and silver can, resisting the urge to jump up on the flag pole platform and rap Forest like no one was watching. He crushed the Red Bull can before sending it swishing into the nearest dumpster.
"Can I come out now?" A familiar voice hissed from his back.
"What, you don't like it in there?" Grimm called over his shoulder, grinning.
"It wouldn't be so bad if you didn't keep snacks in here. How old is this teriyaki- oh my gosh!" The small black and white head emerged from the dark recesses of his backpack, his crystal blue eyes clouded in anguish. Jinx clawed free of the pack and scrambled onto Grimm's shoulder, sneezing furiously.
Snickering, Grimm lowered his headphones as he exited the campus and stepped onto the sidewalk.
"Thaft's noft funny!" Jinx wheezed. Grimm opened his mouth to answer but instead ran full force into someone, sprawling them both onto the sidewalk.
(He could have run into any of the characters. You pick.)
(i love that first part so much, i see what you did there to lol. And its your choice, i wouldnt mind at all)
Mercy gave a light chuckle at the usual antics between Young-Jae and Naide as she stepped in front of the group. She couldn't deny that she was eager to see and experience Young-Jae’s portal travel.
”Anything us first-time travelers need to know or prepare for?” She smirked, asking mostly for her and Rune’s sake. Though she was also teasing as she trusted he wouldn't let anything bad happen to them.
The currently blonde-haired brown-eyed girl was still keeping a close watch on Rune and Finneas as she waited for a reply, when something heavy knocked the wind out of her as they both fell to the ground.
(hope you don't mind that I took the fall)
Finneas froze, Rune stopping along with him. He blinked at the person, supposing he shouldn’t be surprised given how well today was going. He looked down at the person who ran into Mercy, now tilting his head as his interest was piqued, “Who are you?”
(I don't mind at all.)
"hey, no asking questions you scum!"
Naide said with her usual cute attitude, her striped romper blending in with the bottom half of her hair. Her white strands of hair falling over her shoulders as she pushed her hip to the side, her hand on her hip. Leaning forwards to the random attractive looking guy on the ground.
"whatre you doing running into random people like that! C'mon you knocked the lady down!"
She said helping Mercy up off of the ground.
Grimm hit the ground… hard. His heart stopped as he found himself staring into the very brown eyes of a blonde-haired girl that he had so unceremoniously landed on top of.
Gasping, he quickly jumped to his feet as he was quickly rejoined by Jinx who clawed his way up Grimm's back and onto his head, hissing at the strangers.
He smoothed his hoodie and straightened his headphones, all the while trying to look as normal and composed as one could with a cat on his head.
His deep crimson eyes were wide as he stared at the figures before him. Suddenly remembering the girl below him, he reached down and pulled her to her feet, mumbling a quiet apology just as one of the figures spoke. "Who are you?"
Grimm opened his mouth to respond, but for some reason, instead of a logical sensible answer, the only thing he blurted out was "Teryaki!"
One of the figures snickered as he shook his head in embarrassment. "M-my name is Grimm," he said quietly.
“Why do you even hate me?” Finneas muttered, stuffing his left hand into his pocket. He looked the new person up and down, deciding he was quite the attractive young man, but he couldn’t say anything with not knowing the boy’s age. Or who he thought was young, “Grimm,” he smiled, “Pleasure to meet you, buy it seems I’m a prisoner at the moment.”
"hey, no asking questions you scum!"
Naide pushed the Finneas then turned to the person on the ground.
"Hey!"
Naide said with her usual cute attitude, her striped romper blending in with the bottom half of her hair. Her white strands of hair falling over her shoulders as she pushed her hip to the side, her hand on her hip. Leaning forwards to the random attractive looking guy on the ground.
"whatre you doing running into random people like that! C'mon you knocked the lady down!"
She said helping Mercy up off of the ground.
(i posted that two times because it was on the other page, i was afriad nobody would see it.)
He untangled his right arm from Rune’s arm to offer his hand to shake, “I apologize for my..less than desirable appearance. I was just pummeled to a pulp.”
Looking him up and down, crossing her arms now.
"fine…. dont answer my question. And dont talk to this dude!"
She said the cute guy, gesturing to the prisoner
Grimm shuddered under the man's gaze. "Um… likewise I'm sure."
"whatre you doing running into random people like that!" Someone questioned, giving Jinx something else to hiss at.
"I'm really sorry," Grimm turned to face the girl who spoke, "I wasn't paying attention." He smiled a little sheepishly as he stuffed Jinx back into the backpack.
(agh, sorry. Does my post still work?)
Mercy thanked both Naide and Grimm as they helped her up, though she did laugh a little when he first answered with “teriyaki.”
“It’s alright, Naide. I’ve had worse first encounters. Are you unharmed, sir?” She addressed the man with red eyes?
I should just stop being surprised today.
"well, you better pay attention more… GRIMM"
She says tapping her foot, Looking back at Young-Jae who stepped forward, not saying anything, then turning back to Finneas.
"Okay, as I said, do you have anywhere near your house that we could teleport to?"
He said ignoring the fact that Naide was being incredibly rude to a random man.
Naide looked down at him, a little shocked to see the cat. The hair on her neck stood up when she saw it.
She hated cats.
"No, I'm okay. Ar you alright?" He asked the blonde, ignoring Jinx's protests about cat's rights and how he would mercilessly slay them all.
“Can you teleport to an oat mill?” Finneas answered coolly, “That’s really the only place. I like being a hermit.”
(I'm going to crash and pick this up again tomorrow. Night all.)
"sure…. what town, city, state, country?"
He said glaring at him.
Every now and then looking back at supposedly this Grimm dude,
his third eye staring daggers.
”Yes, I'm alright. Again, I am sorry for getting in your way” She smiled politely. ”Naide, please calm down. It was equally my fault as well.” She attempted to reason.
(Likewise, for me. See ya in the morning.)
Lowering her voice a little, still had her eyes glued on the boy,
"well….. you pay more attention to"
She said sighing.
“Same country, same state, it’s just deep in the heart of Madison. It’s only a few hours east.” When he retracted his hand from the offered greeting, Rune “perched” on his arm again.
(I should head to bed too then, Gnight!)
(Yeah after this posts I'm going to also)
"Okay, give me a sec."
He said as he closed his two eyes. His third eye looking up, he held his hand out. An orb was slowly forming, then he throws it on the ground, just like he did in the house. Except this one didn't quite lead to space.
"This leads us to the mill, hop in. You might feel a tad dizzy but you be fine."
He said, not sounding very reassuring but he thought it did.
A portal… created by a guy with three eyes…, He closed his eyes for a moment, Young-Jae, leading to somewhere unknown…
Yeah sure, why not? Grimm glanced around at the others as they stepped towards the portal. He took a deep breath and… wait what was he thinking?? He didn't need a portal.
Stepping up to the portal, he touched the edge casually, sensing its destination before stepping away. "See you there." He winked at the blonde before stepping into the world of the supernatural and vanishing from sight.
(He will appear at the mill with all of the others.)
