{It's fine!}
Kendrick finished bandaging him and stood back with a satisfied smile. Of course, he'd learned to do that at a young age. It started with helping his parents, and then himself, which was actually kind ofnsad, but ultimately, necessary. Erisil couldn't be without its heroes. "Long version's fine. We've got time." He didn't have a long text from Lani scolding him for being suspicious of everyone, and he didn't know about what was going on at that store she was near, so he wasn't in any hurry.

(DrivIng was stressful smh oh well XD ) Neku nodded, smiling a bit at how satisfied Kendrick looked with the bandages, before trying to figure out where to start with the whole story. It would definitely be easiest to explaIn that he wasn't exactly human, that some of the tattoos are actually markings his people where born with. He felt a twinge of fear, hoping he wasn't one of those people who'd freak out when he told them about who he actually was. The last, and only, person he told was a guy he had been crushing on and ended up telling him because he just wanted to tell someone about his home. That didn't end well and the guy ended up telling everyone at his school that he was a freak, so he left and came to this town after a year, tired of the weird looks he was getting. "Okay- ah, where to start," he said quietly, running a hand through his dark hair, before scooting over to give Kendrick some room to sit down, just to give him a choice. "Well- um, I'm not exactly from here and I'm not human- not fully. Also my names not Nicolai. I'm kind of what you would call an alien- sort of I guess. I mean, I'm from a different planet- actually a different collection of planets that consider themselves a kingdom- but we're almost exactly like the humans on this planet, it's, it's like dog breeds, they look different but have almost exactly the same DNA- ah, I'm digressing aren't I?" He asked, realizing he was focusing on the wrong thing, and probably not explaining it well at all. (Also, Neku might have a small crush on Kendrick, if thats okay He's a sucker for someone who doesn't tell him to leave when he starts in on puns )

{Sure! That sounds interesting!}
--
{Lol that's fine. Kendrick hasn't said it but he's totally and completely gay. and highkey I wanna have Lani call him during the whole store villain issue to warn him because he would totally answer with "light of my life!" and that's awfully misleading}
Kendrick raised an eyebrow, but he looked amused. He'd had his fair share of intergalactic experience, so he wasn't put off. It most definitely wasn't the weirdest thing he'd ever heard, and he had a lot of... odd allies. He motioned for him to continue. "You're fine, keep going. Which planet? And what's your actual name?" If he had a desk in front of him, he would have been leaning his head on his hands. In any case, he was interested in other planets and cultures. He was a naturally curious guy.

Dragons Vein | Hyacinthe | Who knows | Pansexual | Sort of a Civilian
Hyacinthe is a sort of robotic creature, though no one is sure where they came from. Though they have a mostly humanoid appearance, they have some...deer like qualities about them. Most notably are their horns sticking out of the hat that they usually wear, as well as the oddly hoof-like feet they have. They usually only wear a blue shirt, since they have no need for pants. Their various plates are the colors of sunset - yellow, pink, purple - that sort of stuff. Hyacinthe is a pretty simple person and seems to be chill most of the time. Not much phases them anymore and they're nearly impossible to intimidate. They're a social person and they love talking with people as much as they can, and they're particularly fond of riddles. || Hyacinthe is completely packed full of guns and weapons - you sent want to get on their bad side.
They live with the family that owns the store they work at, so they consider them family. | Hyacinthe is well known for two things: they run Our Little Corner, which is a specialty store that stocks items from other dimensions and is renowned for the hero status of the three owners. And they helped with the bulk of the coding in the hero app. | They work as a cashier in Our Little Corner and have a lot of involvement in the hero business to keep the app updated. And a warning for terrible franglais
Finished! French child <3

Neku straightened his back, surprise flitting across his face, a small smile forming on his face. Well that was an unexpected reaction, but certainly a welcomed one. He never thought anyone would ask for the name of his home. "Well- the kingdom is called Teresias, but I was born on one of its bigger planets- Ki-non, but when I was six I was moved to another planet for training- Que-na. Umm it's kind of like Pluto, with its 8 moons. Actually it's exactly like that. " He explained,faltering as he tried to explain it, thinking back to his home, to the temple he grew up in with its ghostly spires and hypnotizing arches. He shook his head, "oh. Um. My name was- well, is, I guess, Neku." He added, feeling a little silly with all the strange names. (Do it omg lol)

The store owner went up to Mikey " that was anti-climactic threatening us to set the alarm off and Steal nothing and just go you don't really see that every day because usually they actually want something that has value and not just a flight that just stop mid-combat"

" oh don't worry about that he barely shows up at the same place twice besides I sometimes hire him to guard my store at night sometimes he's not like every other villain he's more like a mercenary for hire he would do anything for cash " the owner responded counting down a bundle of money

{I'm doing it even tho the fight is over lol}
"I feel like I should be saying another 'nice to meet you,'" Kendrick said, smiling. "So, the tattoos are a thing from your planet then?" His phone began ringing at that moment, so he held up a hand. "Oh, hold that thought." He answered the phone with a beam. "Lani! Darling! Light of my life!" Lani, who was still an alley away from the store and watching cautiously, frowned. "I feel like I should be scolding you. What did you do? Wait, that's not important. Some new mask tried to rob a store or something, I don't know." "Did you need me to come down there?" Kendrick asked, furrowing his eyebrows in worry. "Are you safe?" "I'm fine, the guy's gone. I just thought you should know that there's also a new hero. A plant guy, or something. I don't his name. Also, I hope you've gotten over the whole suspicion thing by now." "Yes, yes, I'm getting the story now, which I really should be getting back to. Do you need me to call someone to pick you up?" "I can walk." Lani rolled her eyes. "See you later?" "Of course." Kendrick smile warmly as he hung up, and then turned back to Neku. "Sorry, just got some new information. Go on?"

Neku let out a laugh, returning the grin, before it faltered once more as he answered a phone call. Hm. I wonder who that is. A girlfriend? I don't know. He seems a bit... enthusiastic with that response. Should I ask? No. That would be weird, right? He began to get caught up in his own thoughts, only snapping his attention back to the boy, tipping his head to the side, when he heard a note of worry in the boys voice. Something must be wrong, well, its not my business. But of course words came flooding out of his mouth before he could stop it, "Is... Everything okay?" He asked worriedly, forgetting about the tattoos for a moment.
(lol oh vell.)

"Yeah, everything's fine, don't worry about it." He pocketed his phone and smiled reassuringly at him. It was a little obvious how he adored Lani, but he was definitely gay. He thought of her as another little sister. "My friend just got herself into trouble. Well, no, not trouble. There was apparently some villain or something at a store, but someone else dealt with that. She just wanted to tell me that there was someone new out there." He made a mental note to keep an eye out for new people. Erisil was just getting more and more popular, and he wasn't sure why. New heroes were always welcome, though. "Seriously though, don't worry about it. You were about to explain the tattoos?"

He couldn't help but feel a little relieved when he called the person- Lani- a friend, before kicking himself inwardly. He just met this guy- there shouldn't be any attraction whatsoever. He didn't even know much about him save for the fact that his family was clearly loaded and they where all heroes, and that he had a fake identity of sorts. "Oh. Right. The tattoos." He repeated, his mind getting back on track. "Well, some of them aren't actually tattoos, so we can start with that. Are you familiar with the Chakras?" He asked, dark green eyes darting to the other boy, hoping he was familiar with them. It would be easier to explain, since they where practically the same.

{Great! I'll add them as soon as I can!}
As observant and intelligent Kendrick was normally, he was completely oblivious to Neku's relief and the fact that he'd been disheartened in the first place. "Mm, a little bit." He'd had a lot of things drilled into his head in order to know how to interact with other powers. He could remember a little bit about Chakra. "I know enough. I think my parents told me something about that. So what about Chakra?" He looked genuinely interested in what he had to say.

"So, it has to do with that. Sort of. See, some of these markings aren't tattoos, we're born with them. The most prominent markings we have are our Eyes, which are located at each of what you people call Chakras. We call them Eyes. With each of them comes a power, but most children born in my home are born with one Eye open, and the rest are imprisoned," He straightened his back, turning so Kendrick could see what he was talking about. His Throat eye blinked slowly up at Kendrick, and looked as curious as a "tattooed" eye could look. He pointed to an eye on his chest, right next to where his heart was. It was open, but unseeing and there was webbing tattooed over it, the pale purple ink making a strange design over the eye. "Without the imprisonment eventually each of the eyes would open and the person would go mad and consequently die." He continued, shifting a little, uncomfortable at the thought of dying because of all the eyes opening. "Some people are born with two eyes open- like me. Some combinations are revered, like if one was born with a Third eye and the Root heart, because they're the best warriors we have. Then theres others like me, who are feared because we tend to get..." He hesitated, before continuing, "We tend to get possessed. " He finished with a sigh. "Thats where the glowing comes into play. The glowing is a persons Enai." He explained, before frowning, not sure what the right word would actually be in English. "Its... Its like a mixture of Aura and magic. That's the best way to describe it, but the meaning is lost in translation," he paused, waiting to see if the boy was following him.

Kendrick nodded as he listened to the explanation. He was still following when Neku stopped to check if he was listening. "Other planets are really something," he hummed, just to have something to say. "I don't have a lot of experience with magic down here. I've only ever had a possessed case maybe three times." Because by no means was that the first time he'd encountered possession. Magic was still a very big part of their world, even ife he himself does not have any. "I hope this question isn't too nosy, but when you say 'possessed,' do you mean that your emotions just build up rapidly until they're the driving force behind everything you do, or is there an actual sentient being behind being possessed?"

Neku frowned for a moment, trying to think about which it was. "I... I don't know. Its more like..." He paused, trying to explain it. He could feel it when it happened, but it was like a switch was turned off in his brain once he lost control. It was simply both of his powers trying to work at once, and, yeah, it was terrifying but he didn't know how he could fix it. "Maybe its less of possession and more of a secondary personality- I don't know. I can feel both of them pushing against the walls in my brain- our teachers would teach us that, because even with just the Third eye kids where prone to little possessions, or fits in which something took over the kids and they ended up speaking in prophecies and stuff. It was pretty freaky. "Unfortunately, in Nekus case with both of his eyes he couldn't fight off two pressing forces at once. "They only take over when the walls break, and then I black out. When I wake up I'm somewhere else, and I'm exhausted, and run a pretty bad fever. Sometimes cough up blood for an hour or two. And thats if they didn't have a strong hold on me. When I came down here the symptoms only got worse." He decided not to mention the fact that with every possession his condition got worse and worse- and those with two Eyes opened usually lived short (and in some cases, violent) lives because it drained a lot of the Enai out of them.

Kendrick frowned at that. He couldn't help the little bit of worry at the whole 'fever and coughing uo blood' thing. Even if it was just a side effect, it was still awfully concerning. "Well... in that case, I should probably let you rest then, huh? It's probably not very good for you in a completely different atmosphere that doesn't take into account your difference in biology. You're welcome to stay and rest as long as you'd like." He didn't even give his offer a second thought. It seemed like an okay thing to do, and he liked to think that he and Neku were something like friends now. He doubted they'd be having this conversation otherwise.

"No, I'm fine, really. I'm used to it by now, it's been four years, " He insisted, although he already felt his eyes drooping in exhaustion. He shook his head, trying to look as if he where capable of going back home. "I mean, I'm not rushing back to my place, I didn't mean to make it sound like I wanted to. I just, I uh, I wouldn't want to just fall asleep in someone elses home while their awake," He stuttered, feeling himself begin to ramble. He flashed the guy a grin, noticing the worry that was etched on his face, not wanting him to worry about some little thing like side effects. Although Kendrick had a point, the atmosphere was quite different, and it slowed down his immune system and any other healing factors he had.

"Don't worry about it." Kendrick chuckled. "You'd hardly be the first person to fall asleep at my place while I stayed up. You seriously look like you could use it. Rest, I insist. You're hardly in any condition to go home now, and your injury makes it worse, small as it may be. I'll be here when you wake up. I'll just do homework or something." Well, he assumed he'd be there when he woke up, but he wasn't really sure. For all he knew, Neku needed to sleep longer to heal, but he hoped he would still be there. He just needed to make sure nobody disturbed him. His mother would listen to him if he told her that he was injured and needed sleep. She was usually sympathetic, much more understanding than his father at any rate.

Neku flashed him an uncertain look, but the tiredness he felt overcame really any type of reservations he had. He lifted his feet onto the bed, all of a sudden hyper aware that he was still sitting there, without a shirt on, shivering for a moment, uncomfortable with the thought of falling asleep here and someone else walking in. He didn't have much of a choice, he knew that much. Kendrick had a point, he really wasn't in any condition for walking home, considering how far away his small apartment in Noir Street was. He could still feel the sting of the cut, and was quite honestly sore and felt a bit achy. He really didn't know if he could make it back to the apartment safely. "If you say so..." He began, hesitantly, before sighing. "Thanks, seriously." He added, before resting his head on the pillow, and within a few moments the boy was out like a light, snoring lightly on the bed, the only movement was when he shivered. (Hmm wanna time skip? Or have a parental come in)
