EYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

oh sheet, RUN

*lizard screeching noises*

(wanna rp, i'm bored

(lol, whelp, i'm going to be using the moth child, setting woods, camping maybe? idk)

(k) Richard:*sitting up in a tree, looking at the moon*

Richard:*hears her,climbs down the tree and peeks out well hidden in the darkness, but 2 huge glowing red eyes are visible*

Richard:...*sneeze* (bug replant, moth man...XD)

Richard:*he creeps, waving a little* hi?

Richard:*he nods, has a bit of an awkward stance* my uh...my name's Richard, but if you recognize me at all from the paper, everyone calls me Mothman

Richard: glad to know you're not really afraid *walking out of the shadows, he takes a seat by the fire, his face more visible now, sitting crisscross with his hands in his lap*

Richard: i don't know, maybe because i'm a big harry "monster" as most people would call it *fiddles with the grass*

Richard:*smiles* i guess so

~Richard~ "Oh! i wan to be a comedian, or go into music, but as you an see from my looks, i can't...exactally...do either of those things" he would look off to the side

~Richard~ his antenna pirk up, fluffing up, startled "not what they say it's not safe for me to leave here, i-i could get caught, or even worse killed"

~Richard~ looking down at her, he'd chuckle a bit "how?"

~Richard~ he'd look around the woods "i suppose I'd be a bit less lonely...you sure you're up for this? I'm not exactly the easiest thing to care for"

~Richard~ "alright then"

~Richard~ " regular food....but i really like honey on toast ~v~ "

~Richard~ " huh, what do you know ^^ " smiling, his wings would flutter a bit

~Richard~ " uhhhh...blankets, high placed hammock...i like soft things

~Richard~ "does a sky light count as a window? seeing the moon at night brings me comfort"

~Richard~ " it's fine, just a suggestion "^^'

~Richard~ "i can take care of that part..."

~Richard~ he thinks for a moment " i mean...i'm flexible if that helps at all, smallest space i can squeeze myself into you have to be...around maybe 4 by 4" (he's kinda like jelly lol)

~Richard~ nods " that's fine by me"

~Richard~ squeezes in the back, his head popping out the sunlight thing " alright, i'm just about set"

~Richard~ he manages to squeeze the buckle around his torso " yep!

~Richard~ pops out of the side door, standing up, and brushing himself off, he would look around " this is...populated "

~Richard~ he has to duck to get in the door, looking around "well, this is nice"

~Richard~ " i can help with that ^^" he chuckles

~Richard~ following her, he looks around, his antenna twitching " bigger than i thought"

~Richard~ "sounds good to me" ( ff a couple days to where he's already in and set?)

~Richard~ pops his head out of a mass of blankets in a hammock near the ceiling, quickly, he'd fly down " ooooh~"

~Richard~ takes the plate happily, eating a piece of toast " thanks ~v~

~Richard~ nodding " i've been working on this one for a bit"

~Richard~ "Talking To The Moon....it's about someone i used to know, an old friend, the only other human to actually try to "like" me, let's just say- well she's-...she moved on from me, met a nice guy that doesn't have to hide away yadda yadda yadda you get the point... any way it's a bit of a personal song, i like to sing it when i feel alone ^^"

~Richard~ smiles a little " thank you"

~Richard~ "do they already know about me?"

~Richard~ "well that's a relief"

~Richard~ "hm,okay then" eating another piece of toast, he grabs the note pad, reading over a few things

(sure!) ~Richard~ on the piano, a tired looks on his face, trying to find the right key

~Richard~ finds the key, looks up from the piano and smiles " hello"

~Richard~ humming a few things along with playing a few notes

~Richard~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x94m407UJSI

~Richard~ he flinches " oh! uh-thank you" 0//0 (he forgot she was there and now he's embarrassed)

~Richard~ smiles a bit, scratching the back of his head " thanks, i really appreciate it ^^

~Richard~ looking up at the sky light, he would take a deep breath, smiling " every time i see the moon it reminds me a bit of...never mind that, so how was today for you ^^"

~Richard~ nods " reasonable enough "

~Richard~ raises an eyebrow " you sure? we're running on 1:30 now (am)

~Richard~ "alright then"

~Richard~ blinking, he'd stand up picking he up, he'd manage to find her room, tucking her in, looking at her for a second, he would walk out and head back to the basement

(sure) ~Richard~ dead asleep at his desk, face down, scattered papers everywhere

(XD) ~Richard~ wakes up, organizing papers, he'd put them in drawers and take a deep breath, tired as FrIcK

~Richard~ looks up from the ground, a tired look on his face, giving a weak smile "just what i need right about now"

~Richard~ sipping the coffee " eh, just a bit, i was up all night trying to figure out this new song...stressing, etc

~Richard~ "new song as in ihadasparkofcreativityaftericarriedyoubacktoyourroomrightafteryousaidyou werefineandnowifeelabitakwardtellingyouthis, but yea

~Richard~ "well i didn't want to just leave you there so...never mind that" sipping coffee " how are you on this fine morning? " ( is it wrong to ship them )

( lol, k) ~Richard~ " that's good to hear ^^ " placing his guitar back on the wall

~Richard~ " sure" smiles a bit ^^

~Richard~ leans against the wall, flipping through notes*

~Richard~ writes a few things down

~Richard~ quickly closes the notes, setting them down "i really appreciate all of this you know

(hoi)

~Richard~ " the least you can do is more than i can do on my own, i'm such a mess" chuckles

~Richard~ " eh, fine" sips coffee

~Richard~ blushes " thanks?" chuckles and eats toast

~Richard~ "pretty well, just tweaking it a bit as of now"

~Richard~ "very much so yes ^^" flutters wings a bit

~Richard~ "i can relate with you on that"

~Richard~ " uhh...changing the subject, i got a ukulele "0v0' "

~Richard~ " did you ever get good at it?"

~Richard~ handing her the ukulele, he would smile " give it a go"

~Richard~ he listens closely, paying attention, after she finishes, he'd just kind of stair at her " that...sounded..well let's just say i wasn't expecting it" chuckles

~Richard~ " pretty much yea, i think i remember the fist song i learned on ukulele" he plays around with the chords

~Richard~ he closes his eyes, taking a deep breath,and plays https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH1KjYtyYbw

~Richard~ a light blush, he smiles and chuckles " my mother taught me that song, how could i ever forget"

~Richard~ " well, she was human like you, she wasn't the richest and well...growing up i wasn't..." he gestures to himself " this...i was human, along with my transformation, i lost control, like this body had it's own mind, and i-...i did something i regret to this day....a-any way lets not talk about this sad stuff" he smiles but it's obviously fake

~Richard~ he smiled, hugging back " sure..."

~Richard~ he blushes " i suppose so yes, summers are kinda...h o t ;//v//;"

~Richard~ he nods " yep,fine,a-ok

~Richard~ shaking his head "i'll be fine ^^"

~Richard~ "anything works"

~Richard~ blinks "oh! okay"

~Richard~ he shrugs " alright" taking a bite, he'd pause, his puples would enlarge " not gonna lie...this is pretty good"

(sure) ~Richard~ " that was good ~v~"

Richard: he chuckles, pausing for a moment, he'd shake his head "movie night?"

Richard~ "i dunno,i could try to find something on Netflix "

Richard~ "oh, alright then ^^"

Richard~ sitting next to her "up to you ^^"

Richard~ watching (ff?)

Richard~ he smiles a little"i thought it was pretty good"

Richard~ shrugs "don't know"

Richard~ he thinks for a moment " now if i....and it's dark soooo.....alright, c'mon i wanna show you something" he stands up and heads up stairs

Richard~ peeks out the window and walks outside "okay, jump on my back"

Richard~ spreading his wings he'd take off, flying over various buildings and soon enough a forest

Richard~ "beautiful isn't it" he'd start to lower a cave is visible in the distance

Richard~ he lands, setting her down, he'd enter the cave, picking up a lantern, lighting it, and continuing deeper into the darkness

Richard~ you'll see" he keeps walking

Richard~ he leads her to a door, opening it, there's a roofless rocky room, the moon shining in, in the center there's a pond, water glowing, and the fish seem to glow too, there are vines and small glowing moth like creatures " this is where i was cursed" he looks in the water and a human in his reflection " it is quite beautiful though...

Richard:~ he'd blush a bit and chuckle "thanks..." (he was mixed because i need t expand race

Richard~ i don't remember, i fell in, and now my other half is stuck over there, I've read in books that if i find a rare herb and mix it with some of the powder from the wings of these moths i can be human but only shift at night or when i feel strong, uncontrollable anger....i have to find it, i want to be able to go places,to do things with my life

Richard~ he blushes a bit, instead of smiling he gives her a bit of sad look "you won't...leave me...will you?"

Richard~ "i-i just" his eyes start to water a bit "i-i dont-"

Richard~ he's shaking, hugging her back tightly

Richard~ his shaking slows a bit, and his crying stops, slowly calming down (i just realized something)

(he's like a giant hairy man baby) Richard: he'd stop, sniffing a bit

Richard: taking deep breaths, he'd wipe his eyes " s-sorry..."

Richard: smiles back

Richard~ home, i can't look at my human face anymore..."

(sure) Richard~ heading downstairs ,he looks out of the sky light "the sun's rising....

Richard~ he plops down on the couch " good god i'm tired

Richard~ slowly blinks, wrapping his wings and arms around her, falling asleep instantly

(lets continue this later, Gill's forcing me to go morning swimming with her, so she's waking me up like a few hours from now, so...gn :)

(yea sorry)

Richard~ wakes up a little, the first thing he sees is Avery's face "!!!"

(oh no it's fine ^^)

Richard~ he just kinda sits there, not wanting to disturb her, he remains still, face reddening by the second

Richard~ smiles back, his face the color of bright red "morning ^//^"

Richard~ "i-i am?"

Richard~ "u-um, thank you?" some HoW the tips of his antenna blush

Richard~ nods, rubbing his face

Richard~ face still red, he'd chuckle " can't say i disagree"

Richard~ "as always ^//^"

Richard~ sinks back into the couch, sigh of relief

Richard~ stretching " ooooh~"

Richard~ eats a piece " juuust what i needed right about now ~w~" (i love how much they value toast)

(WHEEZE, sorry to interrupt, but drama is needed) Richard~ there's a knock on the door, he creases his eyebrows " did you invite someone over?"

Richard~ ??? knock again, this time harder, he stands up, his hands in fists "then who the hell is it"

there's a man, he's around 6ft,tan (idk,the ideal guy?) behind him are many heavily armed men (we'll call pretty boy here Chris) Chris~ "hello! we've received several calls about a dangerous creature in your house?" Richard~ listening, he'd say quietly to himself " ah shit....he found me"

(k)

Chris~ " mind if we take a look?" Richard~ he sits in the corner of the basement, the lights there snap off, his eyes glowing red with anger

Chris~ "splendid" he sends troops into every room, including the attic, and the basement, gun fire is herd along with a lot of bangs, all troops head to the basement along with Chris ( don worry, you'll see what happens)

Chris~ the walk back up stairs, Richard ties up, a muzzle on,a few troops run out holding mangled bodies " mind explaining why this guy's in your basement Richard~ staring at the ground, he has a few bruises, bleeding out a bit due to the bullets, the blood on his hands and mouth isn't his own

Chris~ "you're sure abo-" Richard~ "sir, with all due respect...may we speak in the kitchen.....alone" his eyes are cold and piercing

Chris~ nervously clearing his throat, they both head out, faintly you can hear them "what..." Richard~ "you know about me....you took her away, and here you are now, trying to lock me up like a god damn caged animal, were is she now, how's the ****ing marriage" he growls Chris~ " look, so you turn into a big harry beast and she leaves you for me, i mean come on, look at me, how could she not-" Richard~ ropes snap, he lunges his arm forward and lifts him by the neck " leave...." he throws him to the ground " i'm just as human as you, don't gamble with monsters or you'll get yourself killed" he rubs his wrists, the ropes were painfully tight Chris~ rubs his neck " don't you think this is over" he quickly gets up and they all leave Richard~ walks back out, the muzzle still on tight, he'd battered and bruised, slowly he'd look up from the ground at Avery from across the room

Richard~ he steps back a little, afraid of himself, shaking a bit " no...what did i do to them.." he looks at his shaking hands, blood stains them

Richard~ he dips his head as an okay, eyes returning to their regular soft comforting glow

Richard~ he takes the ice and places it on his bruises "....thanks"

Richard~ he blushes a bit

Richard~ he goes quiet for a moment " he's the man who took my first love away, now he thinks i'm the one who killed her after they got married

Richard~ he chuckles " you can say that again..."

Richard~ "you don't say..." he's thinking

Richard~ " don't blame your self for this, it was bound o happen sooner or later" he givers her a reassuring smile

Richard~ he shrugs, rubbing his arm a bit

Richard~ looking off to to side, thinking

Richard~ opens mouth to speak, closes it " ...no?"

Richard~ thumbs up " going well "

Richard~"...never mind it"

Richard~ awkward smile

Richard~ "hAhAhAAAAAaaAA"

Richard~ laughs, wiping a tear from his eye

Richard~ catching breath " hey! it happens !"

Richard~ fiddles a bit with his hands

Richard~ "it comes from the center of a red flower, it glows kind of like the water in that cave , it's said the flower is found deeper in that cave but I've walked moles and found nothing, I've read that i can't see it because I'm infected"

Richard~ when the sun sets we'll go for it, it's easier to see the glow in the dark

(sure) Richard~ now walking through the cave, he holds out a lantern

Richard~ he's blushing lightly, walking, "see anything?" (in the distance there's a white glow)

Richard~ that might be it, lead the way

Richard~ smiles back, pulling the last ingredient out and placing it in a stone bowl, then he hands it to her " i cant see it, so you're going to have to crush the herbs

Richard~ he places a lid on it " i'm our ride back, so i'll take it then (insert trip home here

Richard~ he gets a cut of water and dumps the powder into it, the water now glows red "well, i drink this, and have a human body in day light, meaning no sleep overs tonight, because chances are, i won't be transforming with clothes ".v.'

Richard~ the sun isn't coming up already is it? (drawing ya boi

Richard~ because i'm only human in daylight" he chugs the drink, making a sour face " oh that's bitter, i'm going to go bundle in blankets now, see ya in the morning ^^" he walks to the basement, takes the hammock down lower,then crawling in,cocooning himself in blankets, he falls asleep

( sure, almost done drawing) Richard~ surely enough, he's human, hissed in the thick blankets

Richard~ Dead asleep ( i can't draw today, and i'm with Gill, so she said she'd do it for me as long as i gave her a ref XD)

Richard~ sleeping (work in progress lol

( i can't draw attractive people lol

Richard~ cracks open an eye, a corner of his face is popping out, his eyes are a grayish blue

Richard~ "alright..." ( brb wile she finishes this

( k, she's got the line work down)

Richard~ slipping on the clothing

(aaaaaaaaaahHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhHhhHh good god this is taking forever)

(so apparently, the hair she wants to put didn't go with the face...she's starting over

(she may have given up....brb ;v;

(okay, she gave up, i'm drawing now, almost done though :T

( i'm so sorry ;v;)

(bUt It'S nOt

(CrI almost done

( i couldn't draw him alone 4 some reason so..here's that :V) Richard~ walks up stairs, going to open door " oh right, i just have 2 arms now..." he shrugs and pops head out of the door "heeello?"

(also, I dId It :,D

Richard~ walks over, sitting across from her, chuckling " well yea i kinda lost a pair of arms" smiles

Richard~ he creases his eyebrows " a- hey, i an still fly, i just have to learn how to control my transformations, until then, i'll probably shift every full moon, or when i'm mad, which doesn't happen often, so get used to this face" chuckles

Richard~ now with out all that fur to absorb some of his blushing, his face goes red "o-oh!"

Richard~ he tugs on the collar of his shirt, scratching the back of his head, he'd chuckle "right, i forgot about that"

Richard~ his eyes widen "holly mother of god i can :,0"

Richard~ blinks, a little startles, he looks around, putting his other hand in his pocket "huh...everything actually awake" he chuckles (i like how she just up and drags him out of the house)

Richard~ he shrugs " why not" (A DAZLING PLACE I NEVER KNEW, BUT NOW FROM wAy UP HERE IT'S CrYsTAl CLEAR, NOW I'M IN A WHOLE NEW WORLD WITH YOUuUuUuUUu....Gillian loves's Disney...i have all the song's burned into my brain...HALP ;0;

Richard~ slightly flushed, looking around " it's better then hiding out all day" chuckles (CRI)

(NOOoOoOoOooooOooOoo) Richard~ "yea it's nice " he smiles a little"

Richard~ "mmm..." he glances at her then back to the surroundings, smiling a little " a Gazania, they're from South Africa so i'll probably never actually see one that's not on a screen, but i like the colors

Richard~ he nods

Richard~ " well i have no idea what any of this is, and i'm kinda lost here, so the beach ^^"

Richard~ "this looks a lot cleaner than i remember"

Richard~ he nods, thinking about something (i'm going to go to bead soon here because i'm tired ;v;)

*bed

(sure, gn ~v~) Richard~ he creases his eyebrows, rubbing his arm (it's a nervous habit

(okay fine -v-) Richard~ he nods, silent

(lol okay gn) Richard~ staring at the ground "y-yeah...."

(continue?

Richard~ "n-nothing important...."

Richard~ " don't worry about it, i-i'm fine ^//^"

Richard~ he just kinda sits there, avoiding eye contact " any where else you wanna drag me off to?" he gives a bit of an awkward chuckle

Richard~ nods "sure, why not" smiles a little

(sure) Richard~ his hood flipped up, he walks in " i-i'm gonna go work on some songs, i'll see you in a bit" he gives her an awkward smile and walks downstairs, face palming

Richard~ plops down onto the couch,screams into a pillow, thinks; great job "romeo" you missed your chance

Richard~ he rolls off the couch and onto the floor, then on his back, he would rub his face and sigh, sitting up (oof)

Richard~ yelling back " nO- i mean yEa"

Richard~ "...yea!"

Richard~ he sight, walking up stairs,sitting on the couch across from her "uh...can i..ask you a question"

Richard~ he fiddles with the sleeves of his hoodie "what do you do when you like someone"

Richard~ " oh okay" he blinks, and just kinda stairs at her for a moment " i like you" (best way to do it 10/10, beyadiful)

( applause ) Richard~ blushes a little, chuckling "who's the red one now"

Richard~ smiles " sooooooo, what now

Richard~ he raises both of his eyebrows " well now you're acting strange

(reeeEeERerERerEEreREerE) Richard~ he laughs a bit

(cri) Richard~ "but really though, what's bothering you"

Richard~ his face goes red, eyes wide, along with his ears, neck, and shoulders, opening his mouth to speak, he closes it "o-oh!"

(yjdJTFJTdhxMHDj,sjrbtksuciug

Richard~ he creases his eyebrows, face still red "well now i have to get you back" he smirks, kissing her, slowly pulling away, he gestures to the basement " it's getting late so i'm going to get some sleep, see ya in the morning" smiling, he'd stand and walk towards the door

( MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Richard~ crawls into his hammock and falls asleep

(sure XD) Richard~ wakes up, rolling out of the hammock

Richard~ now in the kitchen making coffee

Richard~ "morning, want a cup?"

Richard~ hands her a cup, sipping his

Richard~ chuckles

Richard~ he shrugs "it's alright"

Richard~ "how so" (i gtg in a min)

Richard~ "oh....ooooooooh right, that" he chuckles, nervously scratching the back of his head

(gtg, i'll be back later

Richard~ "well, it feels good to know" smiles

Richard~ he shrugs

Richard~ "i dunno"

Richard~ thinks, finishing his coffee

Richard~ "we could....nah never mind" taps his foot

Richard~ well i was going to say we could go out on a date or something..i-i mean if you want to"

Richard~ his eyes light up "really?"
