Feather and Crosshair
“Oh…okay then…but Paxton…do you like to draw…?” Camille asked.
Paxton nodded.
“Paxton’s more of a visionary artist.” Grimm explained.
“It means Paxton prefers to draw or paint how he feels, instead of maybe drawing an object, or a person, as most people do.” Leo added.
Camille nodded, hopefully understanding.
“I like to draw, too.” Feather told her, stepping close. She gestured to the paint flecks spattered on her armor. “Sometimes, when I paint things, it makes a bit of a mess, but…hey, that’s part of the fun, right?”
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.

Kad
“Dante…I think we all need an explanation.” said the largest human, pulling the one-eyed red creature toward him.
“I’m going home. Or, I was going home. I was going to go back without having to worry about those bounty hunters chasing me and making my life a living nightmare!” Dante eyed Ellie.
“You’re bounty hunters?” the human asked.
“Among other things. But he deserves it. Charged with theft and arson.” Ellie explained.
The one-eyed creature–Dante, apparently–stared at the floor. “I only stole out of necessity and the fire didn’t hurt anyone. I checked. More than once.”
Hovering in the sky, Kad could hear everything. Arson was a serious crime, even in the dragon world where a lot of things were fireproof.

@lightoverdarkness6 @theloonyone @loopylin Sorry if i forgot somebody!
Kaine
Kaine’s boots scrape down the rough wall as he tries to climb up higher. Pulling on a small crimp in the wall, he heaves himself up a foot higher, bringing his body in close to the hold. His hand holds tight to the edge on the large rock, but he feels his fingers slowly pulling back. Kaine reaches up with his other hand for the top of the wall, barely missing. He swings back, pivoting on his left hand crimp, and accidentally scraping his knee on the wall as his momentum carries himself back.
There’s gotta be a better way around this.
Kaine wipes the sweat from his brow with his free hand.
Ooh, theres a vine over there.
Kaine ignores the burning in his left forearm and moves his foot over to another edge towards the vines. Matching his right hand to his left, he slowly shifts his weight from his hands to his feet. Kaine shakes out his left forearm, waiting for the burning to reside. He grabs the wood like vine and pulls himself towards a better hold. Looking up, he see’s the top of the wall.
Kaine feels the calluses on his hand grind into the small bits of stone that litter the top of the wall.Slowly pulling himself up, he swings his right heel onto the top of the wall. Pulling at the other side, Kaine reaches the surface of he foot wide wall.
“Hey, Matthew, hand me the bow and backpack, will you?”
“Sure thing!” Mathew says.
Mathew runs up onto a small rock outcropping next to the wall. Reaching down, Kaine retrieves his things from Mathew.
“What do you see, Kaine?”
Kaine looks out at the grand castle towering into the clouds. Multiple levels rise at various angles. A grand entrance rises only 20 feet left of the group. A small dilapidated staircase to the top of the wall comes down from the direction the group had been walking.
“There’s stairs over there. They don’t look very good, but it’s worth a shot. Over there.” Kaine says, pointing down the wall a little bit.
“I’ll meet you guys on the other side.” Kaine calls from the top of the wall. Searching for a suitable place to down-climb the other side, Kaine walks the top of the wall.
Ok so if you guys can’t tell, I really like rock climbing 🤣

Oh wow. Y’all have added like, over fifty pages since I was on.
I shall RP as soon as I find the scene.

So…this scene shows the more wolfish side more than anything else.
Zlatan
The lash rose and fell. Across Paxton’s back.
Cold wrath burned in Zlatan’s heart, welling up into madness as a wolf howl broke loose from Grimm. The Volkish battle cry. Faces swirled before Zlatan’s eyes as the world.
Went.
Red.
…
“Zlati!”
Zlatan came to himself, gasping for air. Something huge was holding him down, pinned to the stone. He almost slipped back into fury, fighting the weight above him.
“Zlati, please!” His brother’s strained voice broke through his fog.
“Vulka?” He stopped struggling. “What…what happened?”
Vlkasin rolled off of him.
“I’ve never seen anyone’s blood go hot that fast.”
Zlatan pushed himself up, the pain across his back slowly bringing the memories back. “How did I…where are we?”
“You went after Hitchens. No one noticed. I… don’t really know why I stopped you.” Vulkasin frowned, his eyes squinting. “You were terrifying. I guess I didn’t think even Hitchens deserved…that.”
Zlatan shivered and gripped the sides of his head. Not now. Not here. That’s not who I am anymore.
But isn’t it?
No. Paxton and Nyx needed help. Now.
But which way was back?
(There’s an explanation for their absence. Y’all can add them back or to another group if you want)

Simon
“I’ll meet you guys on the other side.”
Kaine dropped out of sight on the other side of the wall.
The rest of the group followed his instructions, found the stairs, and got to the other side. Once they had met up again with Kaine, Carter turned to Matthew, a spark of mischief in his eyes. “Hey, Matt. I’ll race you to the castle.”
Matthew looked startled. “Wait. You- you mean r-right now?”
Carter smiled and crouched slightly, getting ready to run. “Ready, set, go!”
Simon laughed as he watched Carter take off and Matthew stand frozen for a second before running after him.
The others walked at a comfortable pace, and reached the castle in time to find the two boys panting and leaning against the castle wall. Simon smiled and clapped Carter on the back, saying “Come on, break time’s over. Let’s get inside.”
(Is now a good time to add the girls? @theloonyone you could add Elissa since Milo doesn’t have a sister if you wanted)

@freedomwriter76 @mineralizedwritings @keilah-h @theloonyone @godlyfantasy12 @lightoverdarkness6 @koshka @anyoneelseonhere
I just had a somewhat creepy idea for a random hall somewhere in the castle that is lined with renaissance portrait paintings of every character that has ever been in the castle. Every time a character joins, their painting appears on the wall.
Also, possibly the paintings could change depending on the state of the character. For example, my character, Eddie’s portrait could have its eyes closed since she’s currently knocked out. Or maybe Nyx’s painting could have really faded colors since he’s currently in really bad shape (poor lil guy).
Anyway, that’s just a really random idea that anyone can use if you want. 🙃

Kaine
Kaine drops down on the other side of the rock wall, landing in some brush. He watches as the others climb down the stairs and reach the ground.
“Hey, Matt. I’ll race you to the castle.”
Kaine looks on as the two boys tear off through the tall grass and shrubs in a burst of energy.
Kinda looks like fun.
Swinging on his backpack and picking up his bow, he walks over to meet the rest of the group.
I really need to see Evelyn soon…
“Hey what do you guys say we look for our sisters… where should we start? It looks like quite a labyrinth.” Kaine says.
Evelyn
Evelyn turns over onto her side. A shoot of pain runs through her injured arm as she readjusts against the cold stone floor. Looking up, she notes the intricate ceiling…
Where is this place?
Evelyn sits up, still feeling the cold from the floor radiating through her denim. Evelyn pulls on a small decorative curl in the door molding, trying to get onto her feet.
Oh… It’s beautiful here.
Combing her fingers through her burgundy hair, she tries to regain her since of space in the new environment.
This place feels so odd…
I guess there’s no reason not to do a little exploring, though I would love to be back in the warmth of the cottage right now.
Evelyn stands to her feet, still clutching the door frame with her good arm. She looks out over the floors below from the balcony that runs along the top floor.
“Hello?”
Her voice echoes through the opening to the lower floors.
I wonder who owns this place?
