[ It's the middle of the night, and someone's not sleeping. But there are light footsteps on the rooftops, and a whisper of black cloth trailing just along the edge of your window as someone's checking up on you. Why tonight? You might have to ask, or guess. ]

[naltorian]

[ It's night, and so dark out. And someone is not in their bed... ]

[grimreaping]

[ Hm. Somehow this wasn't a surprise, not this window. He decides to make a quick slide around the outside of the building, checking the other rooms just in case. Having no trouble moving along the outside of the building like a literal shadow on the wall, definitely not matching his normal 'human' appearance. ]

[naltorian]

[ The soft faint pad of bare feet on ground. The soft breaths of a body not human. The click of a gun being cocked. ]

[grimreaping]

[ golden eyes that reflect in the dark ]

No need for that, Mrs Dox.

[Rapunzel is up reading, but when she thinks she notices something out the window she instinctively reaches for her frying pan, pausing when she gets a better glimpse of who it is.]

....Kid?

[ settles lightly on the sill, black cloak still moving even though he's not, almost like it's alive ]

I'm sorry, did I wake you?

[seethelanterns]

No, I was just...startled. I guess I'm always a little more...jumpy at night. [A small apologetic smile, lowering the frying pan.] What are you doing out this late?

[grimreaping]

I didn't mean to startle you.

[ a frying pan? okay, sure, why not. ]

I was just ensuring things were... quiet.

[Jast has an affinity with a great number of birds, owls included. Some days, he finds himself asleep as soon as the sun has fallen, awake again at the very cracking of dawn. Other times, however, there is work to be done in the evening, nocturnal creatures to tend to and so he goes out and roams. A night owl, sometimes.

Splendor City is often fairly peaceful in the evenings, so maybe he is just a little curious to see where the little figure goes. He has a great sense for the nature of things, sensitive to everyone and everything that lives and breathes in the city, but he has never encountered anyone from these other worlds before. He is not sure how to interpret things here.]

whoohoo

[grimreaping]

[ Kid stops after a while, letting the other catch up while balancing easily on the narrow peak of a rooftop. ]

[aut_augur]

[Preternaturally nimble, even if he takes the appearance of a normal boy. He pulls himself up onto the roof, sees he's been noticed and rather than show guilt, he simply approaches.]

Hello.

[grimreaping]

[ a slight smile; to keep up with him is impressive ]

Good evening.

[tokiokakeru]

[Someone was having a little trouble sleeping tonight. Probably that late night snack she had. Always ends up being a bad idea in the long run. She was sitting up in bed, looking out the window over to the park. Maybe going for a short ride would help?

Whoa, hey! What happened to the view? Who is... THERE IS SOMEONE OUTSIDE HER WINDOW?!]

AHHHHH!!!!

[grimreaping]

[ settles lightly on the sill, black cloak still moving even though he's not, almost like it's alive ]

Hello Makoto.

[tokiokakeru]

K-Kid?!

[She flings the window open, wondering if she's dreaming now. When did she fall asleep though?]

What are you doing outside my window?

[grimreaping]

I was just... passing through. Checking on things.

[mykimlasca]

[the candlelight comes on, and Natalia is in what looks like a pale purple night-gown holding a feather-quill and seemingly unaware.

even if it might not reach him, it's Father's Day..she still wants to try.

How do you sleep on a day where your biological Father died by your own hand?]

[grimreaping]

[ silent, watching. beneath the cloak, fingers curl like he wants to knock on the glass, but no tapping comes ]

[mykimlasca]

[she briefly puts her hand to her face, covering it from view as she sets the ink down. ]

It was necessary..[she says quietly, her voice strained]

[grimreaping]

[ he finds, like always, that he puts her peace of mind before his own

on the window: tap tap ]
