For All the Wrong Reasons (a dark humor fantasy, accepting)

Achen stared blankly up at the crow-thing that was stealing his trout. Well, Achen thought, it was technically partaking of the free buffet that had been promised, but this still seemed quite close to stealing when lock-picking was involved, and it was happening on his turf. Keeping the crowbar as nonchalantly at his side as he could while there was a demon who probably poisoned everything it touched and tore out the innards of half-grown humans for fun and-- Achen halted his train of thought to remind himself sternly that this was probably just some kid who'd found a spell for fake wings and now considered herself a witch. And he had firmly decided not to bludgeon every unusual thing that moved this week. That would be just the kind of antisocial behavior which had made this convention necessary in the first place.

Having stared long enough to create a decent awkward silence, and supposing that the person with a fish stuffed in their face was less-than likely to break it, he said through gritted teeth, "Welcome. Miss. Might you please. Conceal your wings. There are humans in the area."

A lone figure - er, a young woman, calling herself Misty - trudged along a deserted road headed north. After some time of walking, civilization was popping up; one or two cars even started passing by every once in a while. Misty's steps wavered the closer she got. They felt ready to collapse beneath her, but she somehow managed to keep moving them ahead. Traveling by foot took a while, and she hadn't seen any towns or cities on her way here.

Actually, coming upon this new place was totally by accident. As noted before, Misty got herself a little too far out and hadn't stumbled on any towns until now. A lucky break, it seemed. Soon, the burning in her chest expanded to her throat at the first drifting scents of humans. Before, she struggled to walk, now she had to hold herself back from running at the people walking along the sidewalks.

Feeding wasn't exactly the easiest thing done during the daylight hours, but Misty was desperate. Forget emotions, she wanted to go straight for the gold. However, she had some sense to not grab someone right there in the middle of the street. No, she'd have to get someone alone. One of these many shaded street alleys would work just fine, so long as the person would remain quiet enough. The only problem here was how to go about louring them inside.

((HI THERE MISTY FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE POSTED!! ))

Kyoki stared at he man and squeezed past him out onto the roadside, landing with a slight thump, feathers fluttering slightly. He sat up, using his wings, he flew up to a nearby lamp post, looking like a stone gargoyle holding fish in its mouth. He peered down at the Crowbar-man (he had decided to name him that) and wondered why wasn't he afraid of him. they stared at each other, creating an awkward silence of Man-staring-at Bird game.

Crowbar-man decided to the break the silence first."Welcome. Miss. Might you please. Conceal your wings. There are humans in the area." Crowbar-man said. Only a few words registered in Kyoki's fish-obsessed mind. "Miss. Conceal wings. Humans." He stared at him before snickering. Well, it wasn't the first time that someone mistook him for a girl, but this was just sooo hilarious. He pouted, muttering,"I can't hide my wings, haven't learnt how to."

[[Lol time zones]]

Achen stared up at Crow-chick (he had decided to think of her as that, as he remained firmly under the impression that his guest was female) as she perched atop the slightly bending light post. It seemed the wings were real, if nothing else. He certainly did not relish the idea of this childish thing flapping around over his town, in view of everyone but out of reach of anything besides a sniper-rifle-- and his was all the way back at the house.
"Then we had better get inside, hadn't we?" He gestured towards the metal garage door of a boarded-up brick building that overlooked the alley. Glancing at the place and realizing exactly how sketchy it looked, Achen clarified unhelpfully, "It's a hotel."

[Paleblood Hunter]

((hehe~ Time zones indeed! *Yawn* ))

Kyoki giggled cheerfully and nodded his head and complied, following Achen. He really wanted to see Achen's face when he found out that Kyoki was actually a boy. In the meanwhile, he would all it takes to convince Achen under the guise of a "girl". Crag was so going to be proud of him. Somewhere far off, Crag sneezed. "Sum 'un's missin' me" Crag shrugged, and went back to sleeping. Kyoki's mind was going to the gutters as he thought about the Old 'n' Smelly hotel they were going to and snickered, wondering what was happening next. Oh, Crag was right. This is interesting indeed!
