"Ok." Rook said quietly. He followed Mikey rather closely, his wings were pulled up to his chest out of nervousness. A thought suddenly came to Rook. He had not told Mikey his name yet. "My name is Rook." He said softly. It felt wierd telling a human his name, he ussally avoided telling anyone his name. But at the same time it felt nice, plus Mikey had told him thier name and it seemed polite to finally introduce himself.

Mikey couldn't help but grin again, "Well it's nice to meet you Rook. I'm Mikey...wait no I said that already...just forget I said that again that's embarrassing" they said rubbing the back of their neck as they walked
It didn't take them long to get to a block that had only a few houses on it, there used to be a lot more but they had gotten torn down a few months ago. "Welcome to casa de Mikey! It's not much but it's pretty good. There's a bathroom down the hall if you want to use it" they explained as they turned the knob to the small one floor house

Rook smiled softly and kept close to Mikey as they walked down a street. There wasn't many houses on this street. The only thing that was left of the old house was a small pile of rubbish and debris. Kind of creepy to Rook. This was his first time into the out side world and it was very intresting to Rook. Once they got to Mikeys house Rook awkwardly stood near the door way. "Do you live here by yourself?" He questioned softly.

Mikey nodded, "Pretty much yes, I have a lizard around here somewhere but he likes to wander and stay on my bed so not a big deal." Mikey didn't really see a need to keep his lizard in the tank all day especially since they were the only company each other had "No one really goes this way and I dont really have many friends yknow?" the last part they said a little softer

(I'm so sorry I have so spoofy today! It's been a busy day.)
Rook had never seen a lizard before, well he had seen geckos, salamanders, and dragons but a lizard sounded pretty cool. Rook padded into the house. He was still rather nervous. Using his wings he pulled of the sunglasses and held them out to Mikey.
(Do you have any ideas on what to do next?)

(It's alright you don't ever have to worry about getting a lot of replies done c: )
"Oh yeah these, thanks" Mikey laughed taking the glasses from Rook and setting them on a table They then made their way over to the kitchen area of the house, "Are you hungry or thirsty or anything?" They asked
(Well I'm not 100% sure I guess first I have to ask cuz idr if it was established if Rook's family is still alive?)

(Thank you! XD )
Rook followed Mikey into the kitchen, his thoughts wondering a bit. This moment almost seemed like a dream and any moment he wod wake up and still be stuck in that cage. But Mikeys question snapped him back into the real world. His stomach gave a loud grumble as Mikey mentioned food. Rook hadn't eaten anything since that morning. "I'm a bit hungry." He confessed.
(I forgot to mention that! Oops, um his father is still alive put his mother passed away.)

(maybe they could find his dad? Or a safe place to live outside of the city and they meet other creatures or something?)
Mikey nodded and leaned into the fridge pulling out some bread, cheese, and lunch meats, "I hope you're okay with sandwiches. I could probably run to the store though if you want something else?"

(Ooo, that sounds fun. Maybe his father wants nothing to do with Rook or something.)
"That's perfect." Rook hopped into a chair. Rook was starting to feel a little more confident near Mikey. Rook never thought he would become friends with a human.

(Ooo yes we should do that my brains churning with ideas once they find him lol)
Mikey, surprisingly quick, made a decent sized tray of sandwiches for the both of them before bringing out glasses of juice and some water "Mikey's not so famous sandwiches! Dig in" he said with a lopsided grin
After a while he nervously started talking again, "Y'know I don't mean to spring this on you all of a sudden but...do you have any place to go? I mean you're more than welcome to stay with me and lizard but I was just yknow curious"

(Same! Oh! Also the key board on my computer broke (my cat likes to break things) so there may be some strange auto correct misspellings!)
"Thank you." Rook quietly dug into the large pile of sandwiches. This was the best meal he had had in ever. His gaze wondered as Mikey questioned him. He thought for a long second. "I dont know, I really dont remember my parents, I know my moms name was Meadow and my fathers name was Eric. I'm not sure if they are still alive." Rook shrugged softly. A memory suddenly flashed into his mind. "I do remember we lived in a motel before I was captured, a dirty old motel with a large sign that had a dancing unicorn on it."

(lol naughty kitty but it's all good :3)
Mikey took a third sandwich as they listened closely to what Rook was saying "A motel with a dancing unicorn huh...." They weren't sure if they had ever seen a place like that but that's what the internet was for "Do you want to find em maybe? I can help of course"

(Thanks XD. )
Rook sat quietly, his gaze flicking down to the plate of sandwiches. The small harpy hybrid was deep in thought. Rook wasn't sure if he wanted to find his family. It seemed that they hadn't even tried to find him or try to contact him. Rooks gaze flicked back up to Mikey. "Yeah, that would be nice." Rook smiled softly, but his golden eyes glittered with what looked like fear.

Mikey gave Rook a reassuring smile, "No matter what happens I got your back" they said hoping up from their chair to grab their laptop
It took Mikey half an hour to find what they assumed might be the hotel, not that it was difficult to find...there weren't that many places here but their laptop was crap. "Does this sign look familiar?" They asked turning the screen to their friend

Rook glanced over to the computer, his eyes narrowed slightly. They had been looking up pictures of unicorns for about a hour and none of them had been right. Either the unicorn was the wrong color or it wasn't in the right pose. But this unicorn was very familiar. "I think that's the right one." Rook said softly. He read the motels name out loud. "Unicorn Street Motel." He said softly.

Mikey leapt up from the table again and scrambled to get a small sheet of paper, "Unicorn Street Motel....1789 Seaward Lane...." They spoke aloud as they wrote the address down
"It's getting late right now but maybe tomorrow we can stop by?"
Granted Mikey didn't mind being out late but they were honestly already tired

Rook nodded softly, "Alright." Rook leander back in his chair. He was glad they were not going to head out tonight. He was exhausted. Rook looked back over to Mikey. "Thank you for all your help." He said softly.

Mikey smiled brightly, "It's no problem I'm really glad I could help yknow....just really glad" they repeated trying not to get emotional
"Oh!! Umm you can sleep in my bed tonight if you'd like, I have a sleeping bag somewhere or I can take the couch" they suggested before glancing at the couch and spotting their lizard, "There you are!"

Rook turned his attention to the Lizard. It was pretty cool. "I can take the couch, I dont mind." Rook said softly. Rook could sleep anywhere in all honestly. He could sleep on the table in a tree under the table. Rook could sleep almost anywhere.

Mikey sat their lizard next to Rook and shook their head, "Nah uh you're my guest and guests get the bed. It's house rules right lizard?" They explained rubbing the lizards head
'I really need to get to naming you something other than lizard' they thought absent mindedly

Rook softly pet Lizard also, it was pretty awesome. "Alright, but in all honesty I can sleep anywhere." Rook chuckled softly. Rook suddenly remembered the small gash he got from the escape. He glanced over at his shoulder, it was fine it had stopped bleeding long before. Rook decided to not mention it to Mikey. It wasnt hurting him and he didn't want to bother Mikey.

(My brains like no Rook don't not mention it y'know what happens in tv when you don't mention injuries xD )
Mikey tucked their laptop away and put the empty plate in the sink before motioning for Rook to follow them. "So my bedrooms back here," they said, "But this door here on the left is the bathroom. Toilet and tiny shower." They flicked on a light in the bathroom before continuing to the bedroom, "Like I said this is the bedroom, full sized bed so you should have enough room to sleep. Let me know if you need anything"

Rook nodded softly as Mikey spoke his gaze flicked from the bathroom to the bedroom. "Thank you." He said softly. Rook stood in the door way awkwardly his gaze flicking to Mikey then to the bedroom. Suddenly Rook wrapped his wings around Mikey in a sort of a feathery bear hug. Rook was extremely thankful for what Mikey had done for him. Rook had spent most of his life terrified by humans but here he was hugging one.
( XD poor Rook is way to kink for his own good.)

(this moment is officially the cutest :3 )
Mikey was rather surprised by the sudden hug but they eventually wrapped their arms around Rook too. 'This is....very nice' Mikey thought yet another smile threatening to creep up their face
For a while Mikey stayed speechless in that position, the hug was speaking louder than any words could. Eventually though they broke the silence.
"Alright we should get to bed before we fall asleep standing up, "they joked, "Sleep tight though friend" the last word made Mikey smile even though they were the one to say it

Rook pulled away from Mikey and nodded. "Goodnight." He said softly. Rook slowly turned towards the bedroom and padded into it. He listened carefully as Mikey headed back down the hallway. Rook stood near the bed for a second, his wings pulled up to his chest out of nervousness. Rook felt strange without Mikeys presence. But after a second he jumped onto the bed and layed on his back. His golden gaze locked onto the ceiling above. His mind wondered for a while before he fell into a fitful sleep.

(Time skip woowoowoowoo lol thats my time skip noise xD )
Mikey would've probably slept a lot more if it wasn't for Lizard licking their face, "Okay okay I'm up I'm up." they mumbled taking the pet off of their face and onto their head, "It's too early to be up" they grumbled but went off to get ready for the day and wait for Rook to wake up
After washing up they went into the kitchen to fix some breakfast, "Egg sandwich.... I eat nothing but sandwiches I just realized" they laughed

(Best of noises XD )
Rook woke up suddenly, his gaze fixed instantly onto the open door the hallway stretching out before him. Rook had curled up into a tight ball off to the side of the bed. If he had turned or rolled anymore he would have fallen off the large bed. Rook yawned and sat up. He was still tired but it seemed Mikey was up making food. Rooks stomach growled loudly as he leaped off of the bed. He winced a bit when he moved his wing, the gash had seemed to get bit worse. He would tell Mikey about it later. Rook padded down the hallway and into the kitchen his gaze flicked led from Lizard to Mikey. "Goodmorning." He said softly.

Lizard held on tight to Mikey's hair as they whipped around, spatula in hand and grinned, "Good morning esteemed guest, " they laughed, "I'm just making some egg stuff. Do you like them scrambled or fried? Also how did you sleep?" they asked turning to grab two more eggs Normally they wouldn't have been this bright in the morning but it was nice having someone in the house and it put them in a pretty good mood.

Rook smiled softly as he sat down at the table. "Fried egg please." Rook paused for a second. "I slept alright." Rook crossed his wings on the table and placed his chin in the pile of feathers. His gaze followed Mikey as he cooked the eyes. "I hope you slept alright." He said softly.

"Fried eggs coming up!" Mikey said cracking two more eggs into the skillet "I slept pretty good, the couch isn't hard unlike most people's couches. I would've slept more if it wasn't for this guy licking my face" they explained pointing up to Lizard
After a few minutes Mikey put Rook's plate on the table, sitting across from him with a pile of scrambled eggs and hot sauce
Lizard scampered away yet again
