OOC Hereโs that starter I said I was gonna do like...forever ago. RIP
IC Well. He did it. He beat school. Technically, so did plenty of other people as well, but the point here was that Norman Freaking Walters beat high school. It was a joyous day, a wonderful day, an absolutely amazing, tremendous day. He had been thrown into school only nearly three years ago, but those had easily been the worst three years of his life and he had grown up in a cell. But now, now he was free. No more annoying teachers, no more homework, no more bullies that shoved him in lockers or called him Notman. It was all over. He could cry out of relief.
...Okay, so maybe he actually had shed a few tears earlier, when handed his diploma. But that really wasnโt the point here. If he was going to be nit picky, it should also be worth mentioning that he threw said diploma onto the ground and stomped on it shortly after graduated, yelling that he beat school. So really, a few tears of happiness didnโt matter.
Currently the squirrel hybrid was at Ivesโ apartment complex. It wasnโt that big, only had one bedroom, but it was cozy, and currently full of people. Okay, maybe not that many people. Just the retired Animal Instinct and their friends. But in such a small apartment it sure felt like it was crowded.
The squirrel hybrid reached down to grab another slice of pizza. This was supposed to be a party after all, which meant refreshments were a must. Which Norman did pay for becasue he had th most money and would probably also end up eating 70% of the snacks.
As he shoved the slice of pizza into his mouth, Norman turned to look around the main area. Ives had pulled out his guitar and was currently playing it on the couch. Thaddeus sat at the table, a faint smile on his face-a rare sight indeed if Thaddeus had managed to smile. Maybe he was sick. Norman wouldnโt put it past him. Then, a little further off, there was Beau, hanging back by the corner, looking like he might just fall asleep standing. Norman frowned. Something had been off about Beau for a couple months. Needless to say, it was beginning to bother him. If Norman hadnโt already been so busy with school and both his jobs. (Yes he had his own lab company thing, but he still did help with Chamo), and well, family stuff. There was always family stuff for him. Whether it came from his brothers or from his motherโs side, there was plenty to do.
Point was, Norman had been too busy to look into Beauโs problems, but maybe now that he had graduated and taken the whole week off of both jobs, he could do some snooping.

OoC :: I love him so much already.
IC :: "Fel- F- Felix," Madeline stuttered, realizing halfway in between saying her friend's name, it wasn't the public one. She needed to fully get into her brain to call Feles Felix when out in public still. She was grateful that he wasn't being nearly as- what was a good word? Growly? Hissy? Something along those lines. She moved so she could get more eye-level with the small child, crouching slightly as she smiled at him. "It's fine, sorry as well. Neither of us saw you either."
"Just what?"
"Felix, stop that." Madeline was glad it was slightly more stern, but she didn't feel it was necessary to scare the poor child anymore. She could also tell without needing to look at the feles wolf that he was faking offence to her statement. Probably waving his hands in a short of motion that said,What did I do? She didn't have to look, but she thought it was funny. "Where are your parents...? Uh, I'd rather there not be a misunderstanding at least."
(Same honestly, I love him too.XD Also nuts sorry I meant to reply earlier.) Luis looked between them for a moment, swallowing. He nearly wanted to laugh at the action that the male, Felix, was performing, but he held back from doing so because he was still kinda scared of him, but it seemed he was okay. Looking back at the other girl, he frowned, looking down. "I-I don't have family. I-I'm just and...orphan," he explained, filling with his hands as he did so. He never liked telling people that, it usually made them sneer or something. Sometimes they were nice about it, but he usually avoided telling if he could just in case. Plus he hated the word Orphan. He didn't know why, he just hated it.

OoC :: words
IC :: "Congratulations. Four out of five of us have succeeded in getting as far as graduating high school. If I can survive another year, I will consider this the largest success I have seen so far," Shiva announced with a happy grin on her face. She was holding up a slice of pizza in celebration. Glancing from friend to friend to her brother.... and to another friend, she took a bite of the pizza. "Congratulations to you three, for managing to survive this long at that dread hellhole. And hopes for the future!"
She giggled to herself before flopping on couch. She was proud of them. It didn't seem like the most spectacular thing any of them had really done. But it was still a pretty big thing in normal culture- surviving high school, making it out with diplomas and having some actual freedom. She was envious and couldn't wait for a year to pass before she got to be free as well. At the same time, she could at least wait another week or two. Then she'd be fine with time flying by, all peaceful and crap. And things getting resolved and everyone getting to be normal.
Perhaps she wasn't just looking at this single party to celebrate her friends and them graduating. Which is why she was definitely going to try and find some time to sneakily invite them to the party she was going to hold. Then again, she should focus on this for now at least. But she couldn't help but being excited. She was going to be 17, three of her brothers 18, and one 19.
And like hell she was going to admit to going for Tabby for help to set it up. But she was the only 'adult' Shiva could find that wasn't Maverick and immediately there for helping Shiva get the present. Shiva was excited to say the least.

IC :: The shock on Madeline's face was clear to see. "O-Oh." She looked over to Feles, admittedly surprised to see the concern (and slight shock) on his face. Looking back to the small child. "Oh my. Uh, where exactly are you living? Er- what's your name? I'm- My name is Madeline," She didn't know what she was supposed to do in a situation of finding an orphan. There wasn't exactly a guide to it. Honestly, Madeline was surprised that an orphan would be walking around in a park without supervision- weren't they normally with orphanages? Oh- what if he wasn't with an orphanage? SHe could smell a slight whiff of animal on him, it made her wonder if he was a hybrid- then that would explain the non-orphanage- if he wasn't with one. Not because orphanages were against hybrids, even if some were, but hybrids weren't always known for going to them when parents died or abandoned them...

(Aww Shiva went to Tabby for help? I love it.XD) Luis looked down. Shock and surprise was usually the first response he got. At her question, he looked up at her. "I live in the adoption centre, west side of town. I-I just snuck out, I usually do," he said, and smiled just a little bit as she introduced herself. "Nice to meet you two. My name's L-Luis," he said. They looked like a nice couple, maybe... No, forget it already, it's not going to happen. He thought, blinking to get rid of the thoughts. It was definitely try that, while his adoption centre did allow hybrids, they certainly didn't treat them the same way they did 'normal' kids. Being church run, they don't believe hybrids are natural, and monsters. At least, that was what Luis was sure their reason was. Because of that he usually hid his features. The black and white feathers were hidden under his jumper and jeans, although he couldn't hide the fact that he was short for his age, seeing as he was a hybrid with a fairy penguin, which are pretty small.

OOC: Eh, I feel like whiting still so Imma post this. Someone can respond if you feel like it, but I don't mind either way.
Oh, this was longer then I expected...
IC: Maverick was currently at home, cleaning up the house with some music while he was bored. He wasn't sure anyone else was home anyway. He knew all his siblings were out, Tabby his mother though he wasn't too sure about. He didn't know where his mother was, and he thought Tabby was home somewhere. He was tempted to go find her, and the idea put a smile on his face. Since he broke her out of the lab, things had still been rough. Especially for her, trying to practice walking on two feet, but also because she didn't completely understand a lot of common human things. He was more then happy to help her along the way though. He couldn't help but chuckle. Her misunderstanding of some things made for some funny moments. His smile then faded just a little bit as he remembered what it was like breaking them out, when he first saw her. She looked so weak, so frail...and then when she was actually the one to confess how she felt to him first. It wasn't how he had planned to eventually tell her he loved her he had to admit, but then again, nothing about duo seemed to go as planned.
While he was thinking Mav realised he had stopped cleaning, and blinked to clear the thoughts, returning to it, but he couldn't get it all the way out, so he tried to think about something else. His siblings. Well, he had planned to take them out tonight for a celebration, but before he got to ask he found out that they were going to a party with their friends. He didn't mind that, he liked their friends...mostly, but it was just him being the eldest, of course he was going to doubt them. That squirrel boy though he was probably the least sure about. There was something...off about him, and Mav didn't like it. Maybe that was just him. That then got him thinking about Beau. He needed to talk to his younger brother sometime rather soon, because he was really worrying Maverick now, to the point where he wasn't getting much sleep himself because of it.
Maverick groaned out loud, putting down what he was holding and burying his face into his hands. Why could he never think of anything positive for long.

OoC :: She did, and I'm proud of her for doing so! I'm excited for Shiva's planning because she is getting two gifts at least for the family (even if one of those gifts focuses on Beau) and she kinda needed some help without letting any of her brother's know!
IC :: That was some semblance of relief at least. He wasn't just... completely alone out there. It still didn't explain to Madeline what she should do next.
"Maddy, I'm hungry." Madeline whipped her head to Feles- because yes, he wasn't that accustomed to human culture- but you can't just leave a kid out- oh. Looking at her friend she could immediately tell what he was thinking. She didn't why she thought he was that insensitive for even a moment- and she laughed. It went deeper and she could tell, but she understood the underlying message.
"Fine. Yeah. We can go out to eat. Luis, want to join us?"

IC Ives cheered for Shivaโs speech, placing his guitar down as he reached for a the plate on the copy table. โDonโt worry cuz, youโll be out of there soon enough, and then weโll really have to party,โ he decided as he reached out and grabbed the slice of pizza from the plate, taking a rather large bite out of it. He chewed at it for awhile and then swallowed, hurrying to finish off the rest. โYou know, Iโm really looking forward to the rest of this year. I mean, yeah, weโve already dealt with some stuff...with some real crap, but weโre not doing too bad, weโve survived and weโve almost thrived even, I mean, weโve grown, and weโre still here and thatโs pretty good,โ he decided and looked down at the plate. โYeah...pretty good.โ

IC :: Shiva grinned. It faltered as a curious look took place on her face in place, "So. What are your plans now that all of you can be seen as adults now?" Even if not all of them were of 18- Beau would be soon!- they weren't in school anymore. They had options at least, but she was curious about it. There was a lot of options- some of the ideas made her anxious as they were uncertain and similar to that, and others could be enjoyable.

(I'm so sorry for that wait gap Creamy!) (I'm so proud of her too! No doubt when it comes time, if Mav realises he would be so proud of her as well. Ah I love it. I'm excited to see now!) Luis could see the relief on her face, and had to admit that he didn't think he had gotten that reaction yet. As the boy, Felix, spoke, he tilted his head in confusion. Did he just-? Luis didn't think that was exactly the right thing to say at this time, but he didn't know the person, maybe this was normal? By Madeline's expression though it didn't seem to be. Luis just got more confused as she then laughed, but it was cleared up as she spoke. Madeline's words made him freeze and his eyes go wide. Not because he was uncomfortable, or out of fear, but because he had never been offered that before. This was certainly a first. "A-are you sure? I, uh, I don't want to be a bother?" He asked, looking between them.
