Aeris was deep within the forest, his hands bleeding. He still hadn’t recalled much of how it happened. One second he was running, farther and farther away, and one second, he was clawing to run away from nightmares that chased him in the dark. You will remember me, boy. I’ll haunt you day and night if you ever leave this castle. His father’s words rang in his head. He had no idea what to look for. No face to damn. His parents had always said that he wasn’t worthy of looking at them. He thought about it. Why have a child, if you would only torture them and tell them that they were nothing? He’d said that once. Aeris’ father.
“You are nothing.” He’d said it after throwing Aeris to the floor. Because.. because Aeris had simply existed within his presence. Because he wanted to feel something other than pain.

(I hate that I’m able to write this sad ass backstory and roleplay this traumatised and emotionless character



but can’t keep up a bubbly personality for amity and jett)

Jacky leaned against a tree, watching her younger brother. ”Our parents are sucky d***** bags who didn't know a single thing about parenting Ris, you know that.” She said quietly and walked over. ”Is it okay if I give you a hug?”

Aeris took a few steps back, shaking his head.
“No.” He said, voice stone. Blood dripped steadily from his hands, but he showed no reaction.

”Okay. Give me your hands.” She said steadily, taking out a small medkit that she always had on her. ”I mean it Birdy.”

Aeris wiped his hands on his black pants, stumbling back.
“No. Don’t touch me.” He says, shaking.

”Fine, but you better do it then. How will you slap the crap out of me if you screw up your hands?” she asked, giving him the roll of bandages.

“I’d never slap you.” He said, slipping on his gloves instead.

“It was a joke you polite giraffe. We’re getting bubble tea later.” She said, not asking. “You drag your boyfriend and I’ll drag Jett.”

“Alright.” Aeris says tiredly, the memories still too prominent for him to argue at the moment.

Jacky snickered, but became serious. “Birdy, whatever you need, I’ll be there, okay? Whether it’s a hug or to leave you alone, I’m here.”

Aeris nodded.
“I know. Thank you. I appreciate it.” He says, staring off into the distance. He was working around everything, sidestepping his feelings.

“Anytime kid. Now what are you waiting for? Go back; I have to do something.” She said smiling and stood on her very tippy toes to ruffle his hair before wondering deeper through the trees.

*wandering

When he left, Jacky immediately sat down against the trunk of a tall oak, taking off her leather jacket to trace the scars on her arms, her mind traveling to a darker place usually hidden by thick chains, but she easily slipped through them, embracing the horrors in her head. ”Elle est plus difficile de résister maintenant ...”

((Can i have two lemonys at two different places? Time travel is wack))

((Hmm Idk, but maybe rn it's okay?))

(WHO IS SHE SPEAKING OF)

(ITS NOT ABOUT A PERSON )

(OH TEA

WHAT IS IT)

(YOULL FIGURE IT OUT)

((Okay! Ill start tomorrow.))

(Sounds good!)

Jacky just stayed there for hours on end, leaning her head back on the tree trunk and watching shadow-tinted memories creep through her mind. The forest seemed to close around her, blocking out the sunlight like a cage. In that forest, she was nothing but a bird with clipped wings, trapped in a cage. And she didn’t know how to get out, not even noticing the cold tears sliding down her face, drip drip dripping down onto the dirt and grass of the ground.

((Hey ark, i cant really rp all this week becasue of the holidays. Im super sorry! Ack feel bad now. :((( ))

((No problem!!! :) ))

(JETT:
WHO HURT MY JACKY-BEAN))

Jacky’s sister senses were tingling so she got up, slapped herself across the face and stomped away, quickly covering up her arms again with her leather jacket as she searched for her brother.
