Ratatosk was good at sensing energy, though it was Mana that usually made itself be shown and manipulated to him the most. Its a factor that’s been apart of him ever since he was created all those years ago. And a part of that was the reason why he was chasing around a particularly odd energy. Whoever had it could used artes as well but instead of feeling like a steady river felt more like an overflowing flood.

So he decided to keep on walking and silently following before getting to a clearing, red eyes blinking when seeing the high energy signature belong to someone smaller than expected.

“The hell? He’s as small as that Genis brat.” 

[kingofniflheim]

He hadn’t lowered his power since coming into the grocery store, though most of it was from the adrenaline from a fight not too long ago. With his mana naturally high Ratatosk tends to forget some humans can’t take that much at the time and paints a target on his back.

Through as he turned around from the produce and saw a familiar green haired woman his eyes narrowed slightly. 

“Martel.” She looked young. Naive. It marked her difference from the Tree and the itself. 

@kingofniflheim

Martel stood in awe, the sheer power behind this mana signature was enough to wipe her off her feet. The bright florescent lights of the grocery store nearly blinded her in his presence… a spirit far beyond her mortal soul.

And someone she’d once met long, long ago.

“R-Ratatosk… It’s been- And- and yet…”

He was always a kind spirirt… perhaps things have changed now, though.

Ratatosk looked over with a befuddled expression on his face as this purple haired man started to speak to him. He never really thought about the outfit that Tenebrae gave him, if only for the fact that functionality mattered to him more at the time than looks.

“I didn’t buy it, my assistant made it along with this outfit. He ain’t in this world so I can’t exactly ask him.” Not that it would have helped since he always said ‘Only the darkness knows” in a mysterious voice.

@kingofniflheim

Sometimes, it helped that Orion had almost no filter when it came to other people. It allowed him to ask whatever was on his mind without a hint of self-consciousness, even to an absolute stranger.

“Your scarf looks so full, where did you get it? Do you have a tailor you could recommend?”

@starlitscientist

Drop kicking a rich person was probably not the best way to start someone elses’ day, but it sure as hell was a fun way of doing so. He had run into the top section of Fibonacci and almost instantly he felt out of place and extremely irritated. And it wasn’t because everything was pristine and clean, but rather how fake a lot of the people around there felt. It didn’t help that one of the tried to escort him out of the park. So he in response drop kicked them. 

Which was a fine explanation as to why he slam-dunked himself into a elevator and flipped his chasers off with a shit eating grin while heading down to the lower floors.

“Not exactly what I was planning, but it sure as hell felt good!” Ratatosk knew he probably wasn’t going to be let up there again anytime soon, but who cares? What or rather, who he was looking for wasn’t there. 

Maybe on the lower floors with those Radiocats were. Seems like a thing that Aster would like.

As the ‘Lord of Monsters’, it was to be expected that Ratatosk would find out about other monsters or inhuman beings and make a connection with them. Though in a way he wasn’t expecting it to be that fast when he went into the foggy lakes of Cotes. The Kappas were immediately friendly, while others gave a look and continued swimming through the deep depths of the water. 

Despite the low visibility, he felt like this was the place he was going to be spending a lot of time in. For now he got the idea to go down to the Castle of the Koi that all the noise has been talking about and actively explore the area.

On his way over to the edge where the Kappa were, red eyes locked onto another blond waiting over to the side. That couldn’t be-

“Mithos?”

“Don’t do anything stupid is an invitation to do something stupid. For science~!” Aster HAD to outline it. When stupidity arises, stupidity explores!! “But I won’t go near the hole yet. Not without proper gear at least.”  At least Ratatosk got used to Aster’s rapid fire of questions. It was quite touching how the Spirit adapted in a way. That’s not to say Aster didn’t adapt either. For one, who the bloody hell pegged Ratatosk as 0 affection? Hello, Aster would bet a million stars that Ratatosk Most Likely Ran BETTER on affection.

“Oh- What about the cats? The cute ones at your old place? Where you able to keep them?” he knew how much Ratatosk loved them and cared for them so it would be a shame if he Wasn’t able to keep them.

“I could help you with cooking. I mean, You’re probably better than I am but I’m decent enough.” Aster offered, and hey, how the hell else did Aster and Richter survive traveling. Seriously, he swore he watched the red head burn water.  “Package Delivery man? How’d you manage that? I would have wanted to shake the first person who ordered more than 4 things.” Because most things considering were not light.

“Don’t you use the ‘For Science’ excuse!” At this rate Ratatosk might have white hair from running around with Aster. Well at least he’s looking before leaping unlike what....he would have done. Shit. He was going to have to apologize to Tenebrae from giving the Centurion a run for his money wasn’t he? 

“The food itself is fine, I just can’t be bothered to work on presentation.” Though cooking with Aster, that sounded pretty interesting. “The cats are fine- Heinkel and the others are all living in this big cat playhouse that’s not too far away from the apartment I’m staying at. I actually snuck two of the kittens inside and they didn’t even notice.” 

“Don’t even get me started. I almost threw a few dumbasses out a window because they complained about little shit like the box being slightly bent.” And then there was the assholes who decided they were going to be cheap and not leave a tip.” And it was one of the more grimier days too that this happened. 

[kingofniflheim]

Ah, the dreaded E-Ranked luck as a certain bastard would put it. It wasn’t like he was avoiding Arata, it just happened that the situation of them actually encountering each other was really low, until now that is. It wasn’t like he was hurt or anything about him forgetting him, humans already had feeble memories anyway. 

(At least that’s what he told himself)

Ratatosk just looked at him with an annoyed glare at the ‘codename’. There was no way in hell he was doing that. 

“You are NOT calling me that. And besides, fighting a Dragon is easier than a stupid point control game.”

Overlay part 1: Team Star Light Forest

@highbornoflittlegarden -> @kingofniflheim

“So i sent my advertisement to the public and….you two the only ones who show up?”

Arata eye the two figure as they been asking him strange question and giving detail Arata SWEAR he never gave any of them since they meet as one a pink rabbit and the other one some red eye midget that look like a ball of fury. Arata can only apologize about not knowing what the hell a reckoner is.

“Look you guys know what to do right? Since i gather the team i’m naming it Star Light Forest. I’m the team leader. Black Rabbit your team code name is once in a dream and Ratatosk was it? Your eagle 2.”

Judging from their expression. They either didn’t get Arata reference or hate is as  Arata sigh as he hand them the Beacon the robo girl gave him

“Look we do our job and we don’t die. Simple as that. We’re putting up a beacon not fighting a dragon. How hard can it get?”

[kingofniflheim]

highbornoflittlegarden:

Her ears twitch as she heard a familiar voice echo in the alleyway. That voice that called out to her…it couldn’t have been….

Her ears managed to track the voice with ease. Using her legs she bounced off the walls like a skilled acrobatic, before arriving to the top of a roof. 

Her ears were not deceiving her. Standing before her, was that man she was so close to in Hive. The same one that stuck by her for so long since being in that place. To see him once again caused her heart to flutter with joy. 

“Ra….RATATOSK!!” The rabbit went in to hug him, wrapping him in a strong grip. “Are you alright!? it’s been so long?! Have you been eating properly? Did you go back to your world yet? What were the scientists planning in the end? What about the cats? Why are you here in this island? Is this part of the experiment as well? What about the others? Emil? Arata? Black Rabbit is so sorry for disappearing! She never got to apologize for how she acted! I’m so sorry!!” 

Holy shit. Holy shit it was her. Its been so long that it felt almost like a dream that they met. But he couldn’t forget her even  if he lost his memories all over again. Black Rabbit was a dear person to him, even if like time, his feelings for her eventually faded into something softer. Ratatosk has been in love 3 times, but she was the first who loved him despite his imperfections and hurt as a Summon Spirit. He didn’t have to pretend to be kind when it came out so naturally around her during their time together. He felt so many new emotions that he didn’t think he’d feel outside of Aselia that it overwhelmed him-

Instead he hugged her just as tightly and laughed a little, throat feeling tight.

“Why the hell are you apologizing for something like that you idiot?” There was no bite to his words, though it was funny she asked the same things a certain blond scientist did.

“I’m fine, I got to go back to the Ginnungagap and check on everyone there. Richter was still an ass like always, like hell those shitheads ever explain anything, the cats all fine but I have to keep them somewhere else since they moved us into an apartment, Emil is fine and I haven’t seen Arata since he disappeared again.” As carefully as he could, he gently tugged on one of her ears. “Calm down before you panic even more, alright?” 

[kingofniflheim]

starlitscientist: 

He half purred half hummed as the spirit spun him around. And it seemed the other had gotten much better at being more gentle with him– which is obviously rewarded with many kisses and happy Aster love. Beware Wolf. Aster might attack you with hugs too.

“I missed you too! What have you been up to before here? Have you been eating well?–” While Ratatosk was stumbling over words, Aster was asking questions a mile a minute. “Do you still have all of you abilities from before still? I haven’t tested my healing magic yet– oh! Have you seen that really deep pit?”

Note For Anyone. Don’t leave Aster alone for too long.

Screw whoever who knew him from the otherworld for being too PDA, he loves his boyfriend Origin damn it and they couldn’t say shit about it. He’s even missed his rapid-fire questions, some he’s had the answers to, others- not so much. Holding him up with one arm now, Ratatosk carefully breathed in. 

“I’ve been eating about as well as I can make my own dishes, and since my previous workplace was nonexistent I was working as a ‘package deliveryman’.” No need to ask what kind of deliveryman, just know that he got paid well for keeping his mouth shut, a rare feat.

“I’ve got most of all my abilities but none of them are 100% unlocked, and DON’T do anything stupid.” That hole did give him a weird feeling and not one he was sure he wanted to be near until he was back to his full potential. Knowing Aster, the exploration might come sooner than later. 

[kingofniflheim]

starlitscientist:

Aster had never been in a place like this before and it was.. Startling. Nothing like waking up on your feet and finding yourself staring at the edge of the world to yelp backwards in fright. He didn’t think he had sleep walking issues, did he? Joy buzzer? check. Probably able to still cast heal only three times a day? He wasn’t gunna test that yet. He looked around before wandering around until he noticed a specific blond, creating a Monster

He wanted to deviously surprise the other by sneaking up- Even though he knew that would MASSIVELY fail, but hey! Gotta at least try for the millionth time. Science!!

He grinned when Red eyes met his green ones running and tackling him. “I’m so glad you’re here!!” He chirped happily mimicking that same stupid grin.

His laugh was bordering on half mad, half exhilarated as he spun Aster around and hugged him tightly (well, not as tight as usual). Origin he was glad to be able to see him again, even if it wasn’t that long ago since they saw each other. As they were re-bonding, the Wolf stared at them with a knowing look and simply laid down with a yawn- tail patting leisurely in response. 

Whether his Master forgot what he was doing, they simply let it go on. 

“I could say the same!” Whoa he was stumbling his words again- “Damn it I missed you!” 

[kingofniflheim]

@highbornoflittlegarden

Run, hop, jump. Ratatosk was jumping across the buildings trying to explore the entire area without falling too far into where the fog was. He couldn’t sense anything from it and that was throwing him off more than was to be expected. Skidding to a stop just above where a cafe sat, he looked down at the pedestrians that walked through this city.If you ignored all the assholes who fell her as well, there was no substance to the ‘original residents’.

Narrowing his eyes, he went to jump over to the other side when a flash of blue passed by leisurely. No way. NO WAY.

“BLACK RABBIT?!” He was so loud, but the shock made what little filter he had drop exponentially. 

[kingofniflheim]

@starlitscientist​

As soon as Ratatosk woke up, he patted himself down relieved that he was wearing clothes. For some odd reason, he felt like he went insane and did something massively stupid before the world ended which knowing him, likely happened. Shaking his head, he got up and slowly felt the Mana around him. It was different from where he was before but had the same tangency that he was used to back home and lifted out his hand- the area around his feet shifting as a Wolf was brought into existence. 

But as he sensed the Mana around, a familiar one pricked up. Ratatosk didn’t even have time to see the Wolf’s eyes opening when he turned around-

“You always try to surprise me even when I can sense you, idiot.” Even as he said this, the blond had his arms out as if ready for a hug

For the first time in a while, he had a stupid grin on his face.
