He froze, hand still outstretched as the other changed shape--into a man. Cat. Person-thing. Ariel didn’t know what Lauriam was, he hadn’t encountered anything like him before.  Dark honey-brown eyes widened in astonishment and he pulled his hand back only to run it through his hair in embarrassment.

‘God above...’  Ariel prayed silently, unaware that he was slightly transparent. His mind was a thick buzz, but finally after a moment of silence the brunet was able to breathe out: “Gee, I’m so sorry. I oughtta have asked permission...”

"The cards?" Puzzled, Ariel slouched and glanced down. His own form was still opaque, and he took solace in that. The last thing he wanted to do was confide in anybody about his troubles, and the stranger had asked so bluntly that it was making him nervous. The brunet still slouched, but ran a hand to rub the back of his neck. "Gosh, I don't want to offend you... My personal world is just that though. It's personal."

"Lah... Lahooryam? That's a mighty unusual name, kitty." Ariel continued to pet the animal, softly chuckling to himself. "I shouldn't talk. I have a girls name: Ariel."

The fear of disease didn't really take root in the brunet. He'd been sick before, very sick, but ever since his powers had appeared he seemed to be immune to illness. However, it was the fact that Lauriam had a collar that made Ariel so relaxed near the cat. Most strays didn't have such fancy collars, after all.

aries is passion, fire in their veins, endless energy. they want to live forever and just experience everything, passionate about life and love and anything that holds their interest. they want to be the best at everything. they’re icarus flying too close to the sun, achilles and his power and his immortality. they’re loud and wild and they want the world, to live with childish excitement. their anger, though, is unpredictable and terrifying, like a volcano or a dragon that leave nothing behind their fury.

taurus is patience, the slow tick of the clock, lazy naps and plants and the smell of the earth after rain. they want to enjoy the pleasures of life, luxury and love and food and beauty. loyal and sensual, stubborn and traditional. stable with roots deep in the earth, they often get called materialistic for their love of beautiful things. but taurus is ruled by venus, and they long for romance before anything else, to care for someone and being loved in return. 

gemini is wit and fun, the sign of peter pan. they are unpredictable, mutable air, changing every second from a face to another. they are talkative, manipulative and fun-loving. they have a way with words, and can talk their way out of any situation. they’re brilliant, really, smart in every sense of the word. they lose interest in things quickly, but they know a bit about everything. they have this youthful appearance, a personality that gets easily excited, and they’re not really fond of routine or responsibility.

cancer is the tide, the gentle glow of the moon, the waves crashing on the shore. they feel everything deeply, even though they don’t like to show it. they are very protective of those they love. they are the rain on a cold january day, the warmness of a blanket, the touch of a lover. bossy and moody, they are wonderful friends ; cancer will care when no one else does. they can be very loving and caring, but if they don’t like you, they will make sure you know it.

leo is courage and love and generosity. leo is the sun, and rules the heart ; they are emotional and warm and need attention and affection. they give back the love they receive with surprising intensity. but they are still lions : kings of the jungle, big lazy golden cats with magnificent hair and a playful spirit. leo is sunflowers, a sunny afternoon, vibrant laughter and brilliant smiles. but they are also very dramatic, and have mean claws they will not be afraid to use.

virgo is the endless pursuit of perfection. they want to finish everything they start and do everything that has to be done. like gemini, they are ruled by mercury, and have a great ability with words. though unlike the twins, virgo is better at writing than talking. they are very observant and detail-oriented, they notice if anything, anything, is slightly out of place. they are always happy to help, if a bit nervous, and make excellent detectives. they are often stereotyped as nerdy and boring, but they have a brilliant mind and a loving heart; they just struggle to share their emotions.

libra is balance and harmony, peace and equality. but if anything disturbs the balance, they can quickly lose themselves in indecisiveness and chaos. they are the sign of peace, but that does not mean they are docile ; they have aries’ rebellious spirit and a desire to break the boundaries. like taurus, they are ruled by venus, which is evident in their romantic nature and love of beauty and art. they often excel in painting or poetry. they are a wolf in a sheep’s clothing, a flower with hidden thorns, and despite their beauty and grace, their heart can easily turn to ice. 

scorpio is death and passion and spirituality. they feel a deep connection to the underworld, to darkness and secrets and mysteries. they are secretive and intense, very observant, but unlike virgo, they analyze everyone they meet. they can be overcome by jealousy, and their feelings are always deep and overwhelming. they love with everything they have. they are impossible to forget, they will brand their name into your skin, and their words into your soul. they are vengeful and know exactly where to strike, how to hurt and create a wound that will never heal. 

sagittarius is freedom and travel and sharp intellect, honesty and a carefree personality. they are simple people, and don’t need much to be happy. optimistic and adventurous, they are allergic to responsibility. they don’t really care what anyone thinks of them. they are smart and they know it. they are hilarious, with a great sense of humor and a lively personality. contrary to popular belief, they love with surprising intensity, and as long as you don’t try to hold them down, they will love you fully.

capricorn is the ice queen. with a cold exterior, always in control, they appear to be emotionless. that couldn’t be farther from the truth. they are ambitious and hard-working, yes, but they’re hardly the cold-hearted businessman everyone paints them to be. they have a wonderful sense of humor, a brilliant mind, and often make remarkable writers. they believe you should always try and work hard to make your dreams come true. they want to succeed and will stop at nothing to get what they want. their determination is admirable, as is their creativity. like virgo, they may struggle with displays of emotions, but that doesn’t mean they don’t feel them, or the stress, or the pression to succeed.

aquarius is the mad scientist in his fucked-up lab, inventing and creating night and day. they are rebellious and creative, with a modern and bright mind. their intelligence sometimes makes them feel superior to others, and they distance themselves from society even more. aquarius want to break all the rules and create a new, better world. like capricorn, they are often mistaken as being emotionless, but they are humanitarian and suffer with the world. they have opinions on pretty much anything and will fight you on them any day. they love being unique, original, shock, stand out from the crowd. 

pisces is 3 am, vodka & psychedelic music. lou reed, kurt cobain and karen carpenter’s haunting voice. they’re wonderland, a sinking ship, lazy afternoons and heavy eyelids, a mess of feelings and obsessions. they feel everything, and are often exhausted by social interaction. they run away from responsibility, from life, from routine and obligations and reality. they’d rather not be here, and their escapism can manifest in many forms, through drugs and alcohol or creative expression. they are idealistic and awkward, romantic and mutable.

Song of the day: Superman by Joe Brooks.

(( I think Ariel is just cursed with the good christian bug...

Like, it's a part of his character that he cannot and will not force anything--even his own emotions--onto anybody. He's always wanted to travel but because his friends don't care for it he sticks around... But when it comes to other people, it's such a huge turnoff if they don't have some free will.

But when he sees someone and gets the feeling that they have nowhere to go, despite it being a small apartment (with one bedroom, bathroom, and an open kitchen-living space) he offers it up.

Well, it's really not such a big deal to him anyway. Ariel prefers spending time outdoors than indoors anyway, other than to sleep and build his things. ))

[clumsyghostsenka]

The other man's response was baffling. Never mind how he considered a dumpster a good place to live in, but that anyone could ever make him his pet. THAT was a thought which a little more than annoyed Ariel. Free will was everything to him.

"Shucks, I wasn't looking to offend you at all." He sighed as his hands tensed momentarily. "If you think you're better off where you're at then you don't have to come with me. The offer's still there, if you want a place with running water and food. You don't even have to stay. The choice is all yours."

The sky was very clear, and there were a few stars out. The city lights often dulled the intensity of the celestial orbs brightness, but tonight they were clearer. As the man walked, he stared up at the sky, almost forgetting the world around him.

Until a stranger spoke to him. Blinking, Ariel turned around, sliding his hands into his pockets. "Is it that obvious? Um... It isn't anything, not really." He mumbled the last two words, giving a light shrug. The last thing he wanted was for a person to worry about him. Especially over a bad dream.

He jerked awake with a gasp, holding onto his sheets with a tightly clenched fist. Brown eyes whirled to scan the darkness for any oddities in his room but found nothing. Breathing heavily, he rolled over and checked the clock.

[2:24 a.m.]

The numbers shone a bright green in the darkness, but it was early enough still that Ariel considered rolling over and falling back asleep once more. He couldn’t.

Half an hour later, he’d brushed his brown hair and slipped on his normal attire—black tee with jeans and a jacket—and was heading down the apartment complex stairs.

The night air was a chilly 38 fahrenheit, his breath misted around him but rather than bothering him Ariel enjoyed the feel. It helped to clear the nightmare away from his mind, and so the 21 year old aimlessly wandered beyond his neighborhood as he tried to forget the bad parts of his dreams.

[ ╫ ] As the brown haired male was walking down the street, a shaman with his jacket slung across his shoulder and dropping down like a cape was watching each movement he had made. Hazel eyes glanced over the one that walked past him while he decided to speak, “Yo, something bothering you?”

[clumsyghostsenka]

Alleyways and dumpsters. The two were places his father and society warned him about yet Ariel couldn't help nosing around them. They stunk, and often times were filled with rotten, maggot-ridden junk but it was a cheap method of obtaining things he could use.

Ariel liked to build things. He was always using his hands, whether it was in cooking or crafts and most of what filled his apartment had come from the alleyways. Tonight, he only needed a large cardboard box but when he opened the lid to the recycling dumpster it was all he could do to keep calm.

There was a living person sleeping in it. Concern spread across his features and his heart to the person forced into that type of lifestyle. "Gosh, I didn't... That is... Do you need a place to stay?" It was the only question he could ask, and he asked without considering who or what the man was or did. It felt right to ask, after all.

The Smell of Change

The night was chilled, rank with stagnant air and the thick scent of soil, decay and body odour. Graverobber was fortunate to be shielded from most of these things, protected as he was. The cold air could only penetrate his coat after too long left stationary and the stench of the night air could hardly get past the stench of the less clean bins around him. He’d chosen one made for recycling - back when the world still cared about that sort of thing, and it had since become his home. Warmed with cardboard and relatively scentless compared to what it could be, it was a home worth bragging about when compared to the places he’d seen his other denizens of the night reside.

Yes, here he was safe and warm and relatively odour free, which is why when the lid to his resting place was lifted by a young creature trying to peer in, he was at least a little put off.

"I am trying to sleep here," he informed the intruder, rising from where he lay to stand, elevated by the height of the bin, a head above the boy.

((

I don't roleplay Ariel as much as I wish I could, but I still have lots of moments where I'm thinking about him.

Like, I think about the fact that for half of his youth he was actually sickly before his powers kicked in. I think about the other people who in earnest have the condition, and hope I can at least write his experience as a child decently.

I think about how he felt when his mom passed away, how he felt about his dad, how his dad must have reacted. I think of Kestrel and how this affected HIM to becoming "Bob" so he could protect the last bit of Phoenix he had left...

I think about how not to make that creepy. Kestrel's kind of a creepy guy but that's to be expected with someone who used to be part of the villainous Telchines.

I think about how Ariel feels about this slightly older kid who's been standing up for him since elementary school. I think about the reasons he had to NOT travel though his heart longs for it and stay where Bob is, to work where Bob works, just because Ariel wants to stay with his best friend.

I think about what must have been going through his mind when he hurt himself on his powers. How alone he was, that he--a normally honest person--felt he had to lie so that his secret could be kept. How alone his powers had made him feel.

After all, there's no "school for mutants" or anything good like that in his world. If he was found out, it would be by a villainous group of people, because the world is darker than one would think. The group Kestrel's a part of, that Phoenix was also a part of... That group isn't sure Ariel has powers. They have to keep secret because they are a minority. The Telchines would crush them.

Ariel longs for there to be someone who could possibly understand him, to have powers as well. He found Marluxia, who had become very important to him. But it's been a long time since then, and now Ariel's once again lonely in a world that seems to deny him.

So, I really wish there were more people with powers who could help Ariel. Because Bob/Kestrel's not going to. That ass.))

[clumsyghostsenka]

He was looking around to make sure no one saw that blunder, still laying flat on the pavement below him. As he lay, he flexed his fingers and silently berated himself for losing control of his powers like that. Until he heard a bell followed by a meow.

Pushing himself up to a sitting position, Ariel grinned kindly to the animal. "Hey there..." He reached out, first to see what the tag said, then to scratch under the cat's chin.

OPEN TO ALL

The brunet had been walking home from work and noticed a wooden box laying seemingly abandoned in an alleyway. Eyes brightening, he smiled and began to pull at the box. “Whoops—” Ariel fell backwards, accidentally losing his grip in his excitement.
