Josh: -hanging around the woods lately to maybe... clear his head? Again he was wondering if he was real... no one could see him or hear him. He went though his life as a ghost... what did he even look like anymore? He couldn't remember. If he could just find that institution or boarding school or... whatever it was... maybe someone could make his real again... make him visible. He could only pray, using what little hope he had left... where had his mother gone? His brother? What did their house look like now? Had someone else moved in...? He sighed heavily, gaining a few curious glances through him from a couple not even two feet away. Just another day in the life of Joshua Stone.
He spent the long days off his existence listening to other peoples lives and sneaking around stealing food and clothes from stores and restaurants. Maybe make a trip to the mall, steal some other useless crap. If only he could speak... being mute had never affected him during childhood... now... he wished he had let his mother invest in getting him an artificial voice... Too late for that now.... but... where the hell was that school!? Academy??? He couldn't remember the name of it... oh well.. he'd have to find it. He stood up straight from where he'd been leaning against a building, most likely a bar, in... Neon city.. weird name. Anyway he turned and ran smack into someone. Causing them both to come crashing to the ground.
Dmitri trudged through the damn woods that was harder to figure how to get through than he first thought.True he was a city boy never really lived anywhere this ehhh or went camping or anything unless you call being temporary homeless after losing nearly everything at gambling camping. Did he feel bad about letting Lissiana down? No...why should he? okay maybe a little but hey he wasnt like her or them and it wouldnt be right to fool them all and....if they found out he wasnt one of them....he doubted it would go over well....So here he was in the damn forest trying to get to that Neon city only he probably knowing his luck made a wrong turn or somehow seemed to keep ending up almost suddenly in another part and seemed to be near the school again...Dammit why here? why curse his luck...when suddenly..BAM.ran right into a tree or so he thought?!
Josh: Now sprawled out in the dirt with someone on top of him he didn't know what to do. This had never happened before. He was frozen, staring up at the confused person in a frightened trance... What should he do? He definitely didn't want to touch them... but what would they do when they realized they were hovering off the ground...
And so he fell flat on his face...what a surprise but the ground felt weird...and when he opened his eyes and looked down and instinctively went to wipe them expecting dirt to be on his face he saw the ground yet......it became apparent he wasnt touching it...he blinked staring down not knowing he was really staring at a face....in reaction to this odd situation he tried in vain to feel the ground but ended up feeling what almost felt like clothes skin......the flat of a chest....but he didnt make that connection of course this was so weird and then he actually laughed but nervously. "I.....fuck I....Im floating?!..."he gasped and nearly grinned stupidly.Did this mean...maybe he /was/ more special than he thought?He sat up still seemingly above the ground and slowly kneeled than attempted to stand laughing seeing as he seemed to be standing on top of...nothing at all!"IM NOT EVEN TOUCHING THE GROUND! WHAT IF.......MAYBE I CAN"jumps off suddenly expecting to fly or float higher......but ends up really falling on his face this time.
Josh: "........." what. A. Freak. Was his first thought. At least there was no freaking out and he had tried his best to stay still when he was being felt up and stood on. Then found himself laughing silently at this guy doing a giant face plant. He then stood up and lifted the poor sap off the ground and sat him in his feet.
"AGH ..owwww"He whined not believing his terrible luck and really felt down until...Suddenly he felt himself being lifted up as if miraculously but it almost felt like he was being held.He squinted but still saw othing in front of him..Though he couldve sworn he heard some slight almost breathy sound but it was gone sure as he started peering in front of him again.He got chills actually really a bit scared now getting some sense he wasnt alone. Now he certainly wasnt one to believe in God or Gods or angels or demons but this experience did feel somehow supernatural and definitely was now giving him the creeps.But somehow maybe it was the part of him that thought many of the impulsive thoughtless things he often did were good ideas... caused him to step forward rather then back away and since he only saw empty air but wasnt sure since he had just felt.... something.... reaches out in front of him blindly wondering if he was finally losing it wondering also how crazy he'd look to anyone watching.
Josh: He sensed that whoever this person is was getting freaked out. He usually didn't help people up if then tripped over him. And he usually wouldn't have stuck around but seeing as walking away would only cause more trouble, what with the crunching leaves and twigs all over...he just stood there waiting for the other to leave but... he did just the opposite... As this curious new face moved closer he kept stalk still until he was touched. He didn't really like the feeling but let it happen. Though he flinched away at first out of habit. Maybe they wouldn't completely wig out and run away... at least the hadn't yet anyway.
What he felt when he moved forward didnt cease to amaze him. He definitely ran into something again...but this time he didnt flinch away ok not much anyway...It felt almost..warm. Like he had brushed up against another person...but he still saw nothing....well at least his worries and fears of a "poltergeist" since weren't they always rather...cold?he again reached out his hands trepidatiously and when he felt what seemed to be in front of him and pressed his hands to it probably a bit more rough than he wouldve if he knew it was really a person and what he felt at first was the same the invisible persons chest but he dared to let his hands travel higher feeling what he wasnt sure of but was a pair of collar bones and a neck then a face.he frowned feeling how odd it felt then gasped when his finger seemed to accidently slip into something he pulled his hand back and hazel eyes widened still not seeing but couldve sworn that he had felt something there...there had to be!.....but what could it be but......"WHA WHAT THE FUCK I I MEAN .....MEIN GOTT " QAQ He kneeled in front of the other invisible person and even folded his hands. "IM SORRY IM SORRY PLEASE DONT TAKE ME IM NOT READY YET I DONT WANNA DIIIIIIEEE"
Josh: He stood there, amazed and somewhere deep inside he felt... almost happy that someone had found him. They were touching him and that was weird but the knew he was there. They weren't running away. He barely started to crack a smile when he was poked in the eye. He inhaled sharply and rubbed his eye, taking a step back. Perfect example of why he didn't like to be touched... Then out of no where this kid wigged out, fell to his knees, and started to beg forgiveness??? He was... so... confused... Not knowing what else to do he patted the clearly younger male's head lightly, trying to assure him that everything was okay and that he wasn't mad about the eye poking. Though he had every right to be and normally wouldn't have been so nice but there was no way he was going to scare away the only person so ever acknowledge him. After the pat on the head he gently tugged the other back to his feet for the second time and started dusting him off. Feeling stupid but still trying to make him not run away or freak out anymore.
He blinked feeling the pat on his head and winced squeezing his eyes shut sure that death himself or some other being was going to whisk him away...to hell no doubt hed never done anything to earn going anywhere else had he?....but that was all it was a pat...he slowly looked up still seeing ..nothing...but as he did he felt something again and was tugged to his feet by some force that felt suspiciously like someone grabbing him.And then he was being dusted off....was it the wind no he was sure it wasnt......"wha.........what are you?.......or....am i...just crazy?!"
Josh: He didn't even know what he was... how to answer that question... he looked around himself and found a stick, which disappeared as he touched it, cleared some leaves away to leave a patch of dirt and begain to write his name in all caps.'JOSHUA'
He didnt notice at first but heard rustling in the leaves and looked down to see...letters seem to appear and be carved out from the dirt....though they were upside down from where he stood and he squinted at them until they stopped also seeming to move and made more sense. "jo...Joshu a?.....i... is that your...er name?"he looked back up hopefully yet still saw no one there. "well.......um.....nice to...sorta meet you?.......mine is Dmitri...c..can you hear me then?"frowns."i wish i could see you...whatever you are.....I......honestly.....I almsot wondered if youre really there or im just losing it......on the chance you are then....thanks"looks down at his feet.
Josh: He listened, something he's good at and used to doing, and used his foot to 'erase' what he had written and started to write again. 'I'm human. And mute. I don't know what happened to me.' He could agree with what was said. He sometimes doubted his own existence. He sighed heavily, toying with the stick in his hands. He should ask about the school. But he kinda needed this contact. He hadn't spoken to another person in years. It made his heart soar that this guy even stuck around. Maybe things weren't as hopeless as he'd thought!
He spent the long days off his existence listening to other peoples lives and sneaking around stealing food and clothes from stores and restaurants. Maybe make a trip to the mall, steal some other useless crap.
