"Oh. you caught me.." he sighs, tears dripping down his face.
“What’s wrong?”
He bursts out into tears, crying louder. "Cordon died.. again... I was finally happy again, with him and noctis and my life in general and... he died. Killed by Khaos I think... His organs were rotting.. he died in my arms... I wanna die, Kota.."
“Oh gods.”
His hands return to normal, and he sends the left one through the wall of the cabin. Well, he tries, but he just breaks his hand more.
He doesn't even react, but he leans his head back, wailing.
"I'm so tired of losing the people I love.. My mom.. my dad... Henry... Cordon.. you..."
“I’m not gone. Just a Hunter.”
"I.. it feels like it... I'm... so done.."
“I won’t leave for a while.”
"Really?..."

"I've never ever left here, not that I can remember! I think I was born here.."
“To who? Do you know your mother or father?”
"Nuhuh. I don't even know which one of my parents is a god"
“Ah.” They frown. “Which building do you stay in then?”
"Uhh... Hairmes."
A note of concern enters their tone. “That is no good. If you would prefer to, you are more than welcome to rest in Artemis’s cabin. Many of us prefer to stay among nature, anyways.”
He tilts his head. "Isn't.. artememis for girls? and for regular humans?"

He looks unamused by the nose tap, but doesn't say anything about it. "They certainly can make some crazy stuff. I think one of them was driving some car they made out of celestial bronze at one point."
"Nice to meet you Mr. My...kailo..." he says, briefly struggling with his name before figuring it out. "That's what they other kids say I am, because I can breath fire and turn things into shinier things!"
Cayde honks Havoc’s nose. “A car made out of celestial bronze? That feels like a waste. Unless it has a gate on the front to run over monsters. Now, did you really come here to talk to me? I’m surprised you haven’t asked to beat me to a bloody pulp in combat again.”
”Breathe fire? That is a rare ability indeed. How did you arrive here, Gabriel?” They ask kindly.
He swats Cayde's hand away. "As much as I'd like to claim I did that, I seem to recall what actually happened is that you shot me point blank with your gun and I just managed to barely not pass out from blood loss. Besides, you look a bit unsteady with blades, which would not do you too well in a melee fight with me." Havoc says, more matter of factly then with any sort of smugness. "But if you want me to knock you around for a bit I can oblige you."
"One of the horned men came for me, took me from my fosters and came here....though we were attacked by monsters and I had to run the rest of the way..."

“That’s horrible. I would never do that. My dad is dead, too. Do you need help hunting Caellach?”
“You are much too young. He outskills you - I am nearly certain of that. I am simply waiting for him to exit his place of safety, so that I may deliver the killing blow.”

*unfortunately not yet, didn’t have time during school or rowing. But now I feel like making something- either working on my new vampires, starting work on my Warriors character, or Turning one of the horrible, formless monsters floating around in my head into a horrible, formed monster with a statblock*
*good luck! i didnt do nearly as much homebrew as id like today unfortunately but hopefully itll be better tomorrow*
*thanksies! Wanna hear about one of those horrible monsters?*
*yep! absolutely*
*okay so one of them is one I actually got to use on a thread, but just never got to make stats for. Her name is the Mother of Puppets.*
*it’s like a Drider. But so much worse. First off, instead of horse sized, the Mother’s lower spider half is about the size of a bus, yet she doesn’t make noise when she walks and doesn’t have to follow the laws of dimension. Her top half, That of a human’s, is partially wrapped in spider silk, actively rotting, and has a chunk of her skull missing. The Mother of Puppets is a spirit of obsession and addiction, with the special ability to drive people to excess magically- usually either drinking, or something more fun like serial arson or murder. She then violently tears apart and consumes those she corrupts. And of course, she has a puppet/marionette motif and controls people through strings.*
"Oh... Doesn't matter.. you're still indoctrinated.."

Said shadowy teen hugs him from behind, nuzzling his cheek into Atticus's.
He swallows his spit, hands shifting back. The left one is broken in several places, and he tries to use it to gently hold Noctis' other cheek, wincing in pain.
Noctis gently takes the hand, humming a gentle tune as the shadows swirl around to heal the damage to his hand.
It stops bleeding, but its still fractured.
"I... don't deserve this help.."
"It was not your fault. It was Khaos and her minion's fault."

“Yes. I do. And I know that there is far more about being a hunter. I don’t know, but I don’t want to.”
They study him for a moment. “Learn your commitments well, child. The last male hunter and every such before him has broken their oath, and been punished severely for it.”
“Tell me about them, so I do not make their mistakes.”
Mykailo nods. “Sit. I will recall the history of their origin to you.”
He sits down. “Thank you. I’m Kota.”
*Gtg for 15*
*bye :]*
”A pleasure, Kota. I am Mykailo. I’ve been a hunter for around… 200 or so years.” They cross their legs. “The Hunters were founded for maidens and young girls seeking to escape the unequal archaic construct that resembled marriage. Artemis called these girls to join her on her hunts, and to remain immortal and free. Away from the prying eyes of men, and their disgusting actions. Much later, Artemis welcomed her first male hunter: Orion. Orion was cursed, and become crazed, slaying all creatures in sight. Gaea sent a scorpion which killed him, and Artemis immortalized her former friend in the stars. Next was Hippolytos. He incurred the wrath of Aphrodite for his disinterest in romance - subsequently, he was struck down by his own father. Last was the hunter Caellach, one that could see through the mist and had lost all connection he had to mortality. His skill was undeniable - however, his hubris brought upon his end. He attempted to steal from Lady Artemis, and was cast out. I am hunting him as we speak, as he has still managed to avoid us to this day.”
*this might just be misremembering things but hold on I recognize that name from somewhere*
“That’s horrible. I would never do that. My dad is dead, too. Do you need help hunting Caellach?”
“You are much too young. He outskills you - I am nearly certain of that. I am simply waiting for him to exit his place of safety, so that I may deliver the killing blow.”
“He may outskill me, but I’m more of a booster. I can boost your strength so you can kill him.”
*Hey, are you still planning on doing the quest? If so, Kota is a pacifist but if Coronet chooses him to come, could he go?*

”I’m… so sorry that happened to you. Have you been settling in alright?” Mykailo says, sympathetically. “I hope your stay in the Hermes cabin has been okay as well.”
