(thank you XD)
Rook was just about to open his mouth to say something when the door opened suddenly. A cascade of smoke escaped the door. Making Rook cough. A man stood before them, he look a lot like Rook. Tall with messy brown hair and a very similar build. Eric didn't seemed to impressed that people were standing out side his door. "What do you want." He mumbled.

Mikey jumped back a little in surprise at the door suddenly opening, "Uhhh....." they said at first their brain not completely working as they stared at the man Eventually they cleared their throat, half because they needed to cough and spoke again, "Well...we were just coming to talk to you?" the last part sounded like a question as they looked back and forth between Rook and Eric
They wondered if Eric even recognized Rook at this point
(youre welcome c: )

Eric learned against the doors frame and lifted a cigarette to his mouth. He was quiet for a bit his gaze locked onto Mikey. His gaze then flicked to Rook. A spark of recognition filled his eyes. "Well look at that, your alive." Rook didn't say anything. Rook didn't know if he licked this man, he had the same attitude as the vendors back at the black market. Rook took a step behind Mikey.

Mikey kept one of their hands behind their back where Rook had moved and continued talking to the man for Rook. "So uh....are you glad that he's here?" Mikey asked straight forward, if they were being honest the guy gave off a kind of creepy vibe and they couldnt shake off the feeling that Eric could attack them or something at any moment and they certainly didn't want to go into his room now

Eric took a puff of his cigarette his gaze flicked on Mikey. "Well." He paused. Smoke drifted from his mouth as he spoke. "I'm happy he still alive. I thought he died a while back when his mom ran off with him." Eric's gaze flicked to Rook. "Are you like his new dad or some crap?"

Mikey couldn't resist and wafted a hand as the smoke came out of Eric's mouth to keep them from coughing, "I'm not his dad I'm his friend" They said frowning, "You mentioned his mom though where's she? She'd be glad too don't you think?"

Eric sighed softly and put out his cigarette on the doors frame. "Shes dead." He said simply. "I think hunters got her, harpy feathers are pretty big in the black market business." He added. His gaze wondered over to Rook. The small harpy hybrid looked terrified. Eric opened it mouth to say something but Rook was half way down the hall by that point.

Mikey frowned at the news of Rook's mother being dead they almost didn't notice Rook taking off until he was almost out of sight Quickly to Eric they mumbled, "Thanks for your time" before dashing off after their friend "Hey hey, slow down!"

Eric watched as they ran down the hallway. He shrugged and turned back into his room before shutting the door.
Rook ran as fast as he could, he just couldn't stand to be near that man anymore. He didn't care about him or his mother, he was just a crook. Rook finally slowed down as he reached the stairs.

(Eric's that character you see for 10 seconds but know you dont like him lol)
Mikey was glad when Rook finally stopped at the steps, it wasnt that far of a run but they were afraid Rook was going to completely run off, "Hey man... you want to talk about it...or we can head to the house first?" they asked gently

(So true XD )
Rook stood there silently for a second, tears threatening to pour down his face. Rook had wanted so badly to finally have a home. A father and mother who had missed him and had fought to find him. But now he was standing in a hallway of a gross motel about to cry his eyes out. He was basically orphaned. Rooks gaze flicked up to Mikey, Rook just wanted to go home. "Lets go home." But before they descended the stairs. Eric called out. He had left his room and was trotting over to them.

Mikey's heart broke, they couldn't even imagine how upset Rook was but it was clear that they were by their facial expression, they were about to lead Rook down the steps after saying, "Yeah let's go" when they heard someone coming towards them
Turning to Eric Mikey crossed their arms and asked, "Can I help you?"

Eric stood there a bit awkwardly for a second before reaching into his pocket and pulling a small locket out of his pocket. He handed it to Mikey. It was a small locket made of wood. Its face and back were well worn. "Im not a very great dad, you can say im the worst dad of them all. But when Meadow moved out she left this and since i don't really need it i think Rook wouldn't mind having it." Eric said this very quickly. Eric had never wanted children, he liked having his days full of beer and smoking but when he first met Meadow he was smitten with her. Soon after they started to date Meadow got pregnant. Eric didn't want children but Meadow wanted children. They fought and fought until Eric had enough and left. Many years later Meadow came back with baby Rook. Eric tried his best to be a father but he wasn't the father type again Meadow left with Rook. After that Eric heard that Meadow had died and he assumed Rook died also.
(A little backstory if you don't mind. Also i got a new keyboard!)

(backstories are always good :3 and yaaaaay new keyboard!!!)
Mikey stuck out their hand and held tight to the locket, turning their clenched hand over a few times as if lost in thought. Looking over to Rook they held out their clenched hand, "Would you like it now or I can hang onto it till we get back to the house?" They asked Honestly it shocked them that Eric came after them in the first place let alone the fact he came after them to give Rook something and not yell at them...maybe he misjudged a little....maybe...
(Eric why do you have to play with my feelings lol)

(Yesss) Rooks golden eyes flicked between Eric then the locket. Rook still hated Eric for obvious reasons but this small gesture of love made the hole in Rooks heart feel a little less cavernous. "I don't have pockets so its better if you hold onto it." Rook said softly. When Rook looked back over to Eric he was already half way down the hall. A puff of smoke trailing behind him. "Lets go." Rook added as he headed down the stairs.
(Next thing you know hes going to steal your wallet.)

(XD that's so true lol) Mikey nodded and held onto the locker, shoving their hands into their pockets again. They looked over their shoulder at Eric again before internally shrugging and heading down the stairs and back out the door. They walked home in silence
(I feel so bad for Rook tho even tho we planned for it to happen)

(XD) When they finally reached the house Rook padded up to the couch and belly flopped onto it. He was emotionally exhausted and just wanted to lay on the couch forever. He rolled over onto his back, his mind wondering. What were they going to do now? Rook didn't want to bug Mikey by staying with him but he had no where to go. Maybe he could live in the woods or something.
(Same ;-; )

Mikey sighed as they arrived back at the house, everything seemed to just be a giant mess. They were about to go sit on the floor when they remembered the locket. Slightly unsure, Mikey took it out of their pocket and sat it On the side table "umm...here you go..." Mikey said, they wanted to ask what they should do now but it was probably better to let Rook rest

Rooks gaze flicked over to Mikey as he placed the small locket on the side table. "Thank you." Rooks watched the locker for a bit. Rook suddenly felt tired and quickly Rook fell asleep.

Rook Milo Hazel-Male-15ish- A small harpy hybrid with well tanned skin and rather messy brown hair. His eyes are large and tend convey his emotions before he can voice them. Instead of arms Rook has large deep brown wings with lighter brown stripes. He also has large hawk feet and legs that he sort of covers up with a pair of scruffy shorts. He has a large patch of feathers on his chest and back, which tend to shed feathers everywhere. Rook is a very shy kid who can take a bit to trust people but once you gain his trust hes very chatty and very curious.
Hershel Bell-Male-17ish- A short but well built human with a shock of ginger hair and ivy green eyes. Hershel wears a simple blue plaid button up shirt in which he never buttons up, but at least he wears a plane white shirt under it. Blue jeans and a pair of old converse shoes. Hershel is spunky and soft spoken but his fuse is short and he can be a bit hot headed. Hershel is very good at explosives and other technical mojo. He will blow your house down.
Sage Avery-Female-unknow age- A normal sized satyr hybrid with a slender build. She has long blond hair she keeps in a thick braid to keep out of her face and away from her large ram horns that curve back behind her large goat ears. Her eyes are a pale hazel color. Her ears and horns are really the only traits that she got from her father. Sage wears skinny jeans, a slightly to small black tank top with a flower on her chest. She also has many bracelets that constantly jingle every time she moves her hands. Sneakers with rainbow socks. Sage is clever and can rarely be tricked. She also can be stubborn and a bit annoying at times but shes usually nice. She will fight you.
