Fleeting Humanity (Lab Roleplay- semi-lit) Scientist Needed

[Season of the Star]

The door into the Inner Field is ahead. If I can reach it, there's be just a little bit of hope for me. Come on, just a little further, Willy. Just because Brother is stronger, doesn't mean you have to be weak. Come on, don't think about the asthma. Breathe evenly, don't trip. Come on, come on! Willy told himself as he hurried forward. He was breathing through a tube now, the exertion causing his breath to be stolen away. He was nearly there, but was slowing quickly. All he knew now was 'forward'. One step after another, each breath, each heartbeat. They all screamed in his ears. Behind him he heard the wolf quickly catching up. Aereo was nearly upon him.
"Hell." He breathed, trying to push onward faster.

Aereo loped at an easy pace, which was actually quite slow for him, considering the kind of speed he was given so many years ago. He caught up behind his friend, then veered slightly to the side so that he was right next to him. The tall canine looked up at the scientist who had become his playmate, wondering why he looked so.. in pain, in a way. And yet, he seemed very determined. What was this human aspect called? He tried to remember.. they called it 'courage', or 'persistence', maybe. However, as usual, in his own thought, he forgot to look in front of him; he slammed, cheek first, into a filing cabinet.

Papers exploded around him, fluttering to the floor. The metal cabinet was flung backwards, toppling over and skidding across the floor. Aereo shook his head, trying to get rid of the ringing noise that had planted itself in his mind, and then looked up. His friend darted out of sight, and Aereo immediately shook himself out and then trotted after him.

[Season of the Star]

Willy hid at the next corner, attempting to calm his breathing. Three years ago... no, longer than that? Anyway, after That night, Willy had become blind and had troubles breathing. Despite everything he loved, it had happened and he was unable to do anything about it. His lungs burned, screaming for him to calm down. A cold sweat ran down his forehead, stinging his eyes as he stand there. He whimpered, fighting the urge to simply collapse and give up. Evan had told him not to give up on anything if you really wanted it. He wanted to survive. For that, he'd continue on.
He took one final, shaky breath before he continued on. This last stretch of hallway was clear save for the guard post- which was simply a plastic chair. At the far end of the hallway was where the door to the Inner Field stood. If on;y he could reach it. Even if he did, he wasn't exactly sure if he would survive even then. Considering that they now needed to replace one expensive door... No, there was no room for negative thoughts. He needed to focus.

{Ari Parker} Experiment {East Wing}

(Art is not mine. Credit goes to the artist)
Name
Ari Dakota Parker

Nickname
...Ari...Or Parker, if you'd like to address him by his last name.

Age
Ari is 18, almost 19

Gender
Male

Appearance
Ari has shoulder length, tousled blonde hair that is cut a bit unevenly, not enough that it looks like he cut it himself, and just enough that it looks styled and layered. He has fallow skin, not exactly tan, but also not entirely pale either. He is a tall, thin to the point where it looks almost unhealthy, and his skin is covered in scars, particularly on his back and arms. Ari also sports a long, thick tail that tapers to a point at the end, and a pair of digitigrade legs like that of the dinosaur Velociraptor. He has scales running up his back, neck, and onto his cheeks. Ari's eyes have no irises, but instead are all yellow with black pupils that narrow to slits when he is angry or irritated. The dinosaur-like features came along when he got to the Lab.

Experiment's Outlook
Ari really does hate his life at the lab. They've made him into a permanent freak who can't go out in public without someone screaming at his appearance, but at the same time, he has been saved from the personal and emotional hurt he had experienced within his very home, and from the stress and grief that came with his family issues. It's like he ran away but ended up being kidnapped. The pain here is far worse than anything he's experienced before, and he often lashes out at the doctors, but he finds that it's a bit better than home.

Goal
Ari really has no where to go. If he wanted to go somewhere, he would have to hide for the rest of his life. Perhaps he could turn himself in to the government...They would do tests on him, yes, but they would be far more humane, right?
...Right?

Personality
Ari is far from shy or reserved. He says what he feels and uses body language to communicate half of what he's trying to convey. He has a tendency toward violence, is cold-hearted, and is as stubborn as possible, especially toward the scientists. He would prefer to be alone with his thoughts, rather than in a large group of people or under the eyes of scientists. He is terribly clever and he used to play excellent pranks at home, but this was not a very good use of his potential. Ari is a strategist and a fighter. He will find the best way to take you down and use it...And if that way changes, he'll flow with it.
If you manage to become friends with Ari, you may be able to soften him enough to find his true personality. He is honestly a funny, sweet, cuddly sort of guy, and he is very protective of those closest to him, or those he feels pity for. He is self-sacrificing, and if he were to see another experiment nearby that was starving, he would give his food for them.
This is not to say Ari has no weakness. He is hot-headed and if he is angry he might act before thinking things through. If he likes someone he tends to stutter or speak awkwardly, and can be a bit clumsy. He is not exceptionally strong and he does not absorb information that you would learn in school very well. He has an excellent memory for detail though, and would probably make a great detective.

Mutations
Ari is able to shift into anything he's seen before(in real life or image), although he cannot shift out of his velociraptor features anymore.

Sexual Allignment
Bisexual

History
Since he was a child, Ari has been able to shapeshift into whatever he had seen, so naturally this was things like dogs, cats, and caterpillars. He was smart enough to keep it a secret from everyone though, since he knew most people didn't have these powers. At first, his powers only lasted for a few minutes before he got a headache and had to turn human again, but as he continued to practice, he found himself staying in animal forms for longer. When he was thirteen, he discovered his ability to take on certain features of animals, rather than the full form.
Ari did not have a pleasant childhood...Or life at home in general. His mother and father never really liked each other, and his father had only married for the money his mother had...However, Ari's mother had not known this, and when she found out, she was furious. The two were divorced within a year. Ari was only six when this happened, and didn't really understand.
His mother remarried when he was nine years old...But the man she had married to was horrible to Ari. She was always working and wasn't often home, and his step-father would come home partly drunk, get even more drunk, then abuse Ari by hitting him with a belt or kicking him. These wounds were easily covered, and so Ari's mother really didn't know that anything was wrong with the child, except that he was always rather submissive and flinching at everything.
Once he reached Middle School, Ari found friends and became a bully, and this carried on through High School, as did his father's abuse. Ari got into cutting as well, and so would wear long sleeves to cover his scars.

((Accepted. Hell is pleased to have another to join those already trapped.))

[Quitting :I]

<<Thanks...I think O-o...
I won't be able to post tonight. I've got to go to bed, but I'll be sure to post tomorrow. >>

[Vraska the Unseen]

((Aye, i'm being lazy tonight, did Evan ever go find Jade?))

[Season of the Star]

Evan walked through the halls at a leisurely pace, hands in his pockets. The white corridor had been painful for his eyes at first, since he had been used to a dark basement full of his taboo science. He'd lost that sensitivity a long time ago, however, and now walked as if the blaring white was nothing more than a normal room.
He arrived at Jade's room, opening the door and peeping in just as Dr. Lyetn walked into sight.
"I thought I told you to wait for me to do that." Evan frowned.

((Here's the quote, Crooked.
aeon, Alright, thank you for joining anyway. Have a nice sleep.))

[Vraska the Unseen]

((Aye, Grazie, give me a moment to 'unfog' and I shall respond.))

[Season of the Star]

((Alright. Take your time.))
