[center][h1][b][color=D1A0F7]Jonathan Paul Huckaby[/color][/b][/h1][/center][center][h3][color=FFE16D]Franziska's Lab[/color][/h3][/center] [hr] Jonathan spent some time between worlds, so much so that he fell asleep. It wasn't the best idea but he didn't know when or where he would appear, or if he ever would. So, sleep it was. He drifted through the smokey greys and blacks, it was cold and empty. However, eventually sleeps embrace too him. He didn't dream as much as he did when he was a child and never understood why that was. A quick jerk woke him like he was riding in a car and someone had pulled out in front of their car. Still groggy he looked around and noticed a vortex. Terror filled him as it looked like an even darker place than here. Flaw Anxiety - Flaw Depression - Low Endurance His eyes went wide as his heart started to pound faster and faster. It was the only noise in this dark realm. He nearly choked on his own breath as his body started to hyperventilate. Quicker and quicker his breathing became, as his vision narrowed onto the hole. Feeling as if everything was coming to an end he had to ask. [color=FFBD5C]"Why?"[/color] This was the last thing he said within the realm between realms and he was unceremoniously out of the portal onto his stomach. The air that was in his lungs was no more and he was gasping for it. His body felt starved for the necessary oxygen. EX. Survival - EX. Awareness He made a motion that looked similar to someone coughing up water and took in a breath. The entire front of his body was numbed from the impact. Then the pain started to fill him and he let out a small whimper. [color=D1A0F7]'Someone was speaking to him and in a language, he didn't understand?' [/color] His thoughts were blurred. Slowly he focused the words became clearer. [color=D1A0F7]'Perhaps it had to do with the impact or not hearing someone for a day or two?'[/color] After the thought, he noted that he was hungry as his stomach growled as if a beast ready to kill. This happened to time up perfectly with the word "pig" from the lovely female that stood before him. EX. Learning - EX. Awareness Everything she said and did fill his mind as he recalled the situation. He slowly rose to his feet standing six foot two weighing 260-270lbs. There were noticeable amounts of stubborn fat hanging onto him. However, his arms and legs carried almost no fat in them, or was it that it wasn't as noticeable? Either way, he didn't want to be a burden to the person that summoned him. [color=D1A0F7]'She seemed like the magic equivalent to a mad scientist... possibly one that had been overwhelmed with the "lack of love" type sex. She had mentioned not enough tentacles and he knew only two or maybe three reasons behind that. He only made this observation after surveying the room. There was no technological equipment scattered around and the room smelt bad... perhaps that was her breath?'[/color] Another observation as he considered his options. Flaw Depression - EX. Survival [color=D1A0F7]'Great now she thought I'm something that I'm not! It always seems to happen. People think he is useless or too scary to even talk to.'[/color] He let out a depressed sigh. On top of that, he was away from the woman he loved and his family. He pushed back the tears. [color=D1A0F7]'It would be bad to give a bad first impression. However, she did say something about enhancements via animals. It was an idea I had once.'[/color] He stood there not ignoring her but choosing his words with care. He could be the crazy god placed in an out of shape body due to her attempts. Perhaps, Rumpelstiltskin would be interesting to try. He let out a sigh and looked her over. Flaw Almost Always Smiles - Flaw Too Trusting - EX. Survival [color=D1A0F7]'She didn't look half bad but that almost always came with a cold heart. Living in L.A. where god and goddess level beauties walked, taught him that quickly.'[/color] He hated himself sometimes as a smile crossed his face. He bowed not knowing if it was proper or not. [color=FFBD5C]"My name is Aku."[/color] He started by pulling one of his RP characters names... Well, nicknames. He wasn't sure if this realm of magic had true namers and didn't want someone to control him with his true name if they existed. His mind quickly delved into each character he made or played as well as characters he liked from shows. [color=FFBD5C]"I feel at a loss of words when they are not naturally my own."[/color] He continued as he hoped that would buy him time to think more. He started by dusting himself off and moved closer to the small, mostly everyone to him was small, woman. He stood over her and knelt down so they could see eye to eye and put his hand in front of her. Flaws Too Trusting - Almost always smiles - EX. Charisma [color=FFBD5C]"Nice to meet you."[/color] He stated clearly as an uncontrollable smile crossed his face. [color=FFBD5C]"I feel that a chimera would raise questions and if done correctly I'm not against it. You seem to like to experiment and do questionable things."[/color] He reasoned with a pause. If she shook his hand he would shake firmly but not overpowering. If not he would place it on his leg acting like he was dusting off more dust. Afterward, he would rise up and move across the room. Not wanting to make her chase him, he stayed away from the door. EX. Awareness - EX. Survival [color=D1A0F7]'If she could summon me to this realm, then it stands to reason that she could have devastating spells at her disposal.'[/color] He thought and his face fell to his all too famous resting bitch face. That only happened when he didn't look at her. It mostly had to do with him thinking or focusing on something. After a few moments he looked back at her and his smile returned. What was odd was that his smile was genuine and had a warmth to it. [color=FFBD5C]"In fairness, I recommend a game. Winner takes all. I will pose a question. Guess the answer correctly and I will help you get your ingredients and apply what little knowledge I have to your next summoning. If you guess wrong you will not only apologize for the insult but you will teach me magic.[/color] He paused briefly. [color=FFBD5C]"If those stakes are too low then we could say servitude. In which the before mentioned matter will still exist. If I win then you are mine to do with what I please. If you win the same goes."[/color] He laid out the challenge for her. [color=D1A0F7]'She was powerful but she was a gambler. How else would he have gotten there?'[/color] He guessed. [color=FFBD5C]"I would like to point out that I'm not a Pig. I just like food. If I were a pig I would have overpowered you and had my way with you. Unless the trinket in your hand is a knife, then I would be bleeding out right now."[/color] He shrugged as he started looking around the room, a smile still across his face. [color=D1A0F7]'I doubt she would take either of those bets.'[/color] He guessed as he looked around. He was excited and sad and found the feeling strange.
