Recollections: The Othergrounds [Complete]

Oh shit. I thought it was OOC.

Recollections: The Othergrounds [Complete]

My bad.

Recollections: The Coven [COMPLETED]

Today was not a good day. No, this weekend wasn't a good weekend for his friends. They fought yesterday, within the group and with vampires, he's hurt, Sin got hurt, Madison isn't doing well emotionally and is now off to probably do something that might potentially get her killed. He wishes he could go, but Babylon said it wouldn't just take a life, doesn't mean it won't do something irreversible. He's sure Emily insulted him, but he couldn't really follow. Something about being lonely, but weren't they all lonely that's why they're here? More infighting today, a lot of harm words and criticisms. He wished they'd all get along. No two people are too different from each other. They all have a lot in common, maybe if they recognized that they'd get along better. They should go to the beach. Unwind, have some fun. Yes, fun is what they all needed right now. Can't fight when you're having a good time. He opened his mouth wide to yell, only to inhale burning smoke that made his eyes teary and red and hard to see.

"FBI!"

Herik got off his barstool and hit the floor. His mother always said to just to as the authorities said and there'd be no problems. He couldn't really see them through his cloudy eyes, but it looked like there four and one of them was big, like probably bigger than him. He's not worried for himself, Herik can take a hit, even if he's rarely not the biggest guy in the room, but his companions are tiny things, even the ones nearly as tall as him.

"Just do what they say!" He called out, then coughed hard into his elbow. Some of the more volatile members might cause more trouble than they're already in and he won't be able to protect them if they need it. Even so, he crawled towards the FBI, maybe they'd see him as more of a threat than his companions. He put most of his weight on his uninjured shoulder, his chest getting carpet burn, he ignored the pain. He didn't do much to protect them yesterday, but maybe he can protect them now.

I'm in. This is my favorite rp rn. I'll PM you my sheet. I might not change anything. Idk yet.

Recollections: The Coven [COMPLETED]

Herik was satisfied what the Hound wouldn't kill them if it wasn't their time to go, but he still didn't want to go chasing the reaper. It could change its mind. If Babylon's taught him anything about ethereal beings, it's that they don't follow rules other than the ones they make themselves. Madison dropped the topic, but he could tell she wasn't going to let it go. He still wanted to help her somehow. Maybe not with the Hound, but even if she confided in him that's all he'd need. He'll approach her after the meeting if he got the chance.

Agatha called the meeting to open. A new member wouldn't be bad. He didn't see why someone else couldn't join. Seemed like they all needed someone to care about them and this new person was probably in need of the same thing. He couldn't turn them away. "I think a new member would be great. The more in our group, the merrier, right?" He smiled, the prospect of a new friend was good.

Recollections: The Coven [COMPLETED]

3). Normal sex?

@Ghost Note

4). Selfcest.

Recollections: The Coven [COMPLETED]

A lot happened during the fight. Sin got shot, a big vampire tackled him and he landed on his shoulder wrong, but he punched it in the face. They grappled on the concrete, until Kayla called the fight to end and Claudette turned the street dark. Herik kicked the creature off him, then ran towards the tree, since it was his only point of reference in the darkness. From there he managed to make his way back to his car. He peeled off the street, but didn't follow everyone else. Instead, he went to the hospital, because he'd done wrong. He shouldn't've been in that fight. His mother wouldn't have approved. Sure he went to support Kayla, but he didn't expect more than a little fighting, like a bar brawl. Not a bloody battle. It was too much. His mother raised him better than this. He's sure he hurt the vampires he fought, maybe beyond repair. His stopped at a traffic light and looked at his bloody knuckles. He can't go see his mother like this, but he was barely holding it together. He parked in the hospital lot and he wiped his hands the best he could with a cloth in his bag. The process to check in and get a visitor's bag took a few minutes, then he was in her room, sitting next to her.

She didn't look any different than when he last saw her a week ago. Still blonde with a gray strands, her laugh lines were frown lines, the wrinkles around her eyes looked sad without her liveliness. He placed his hand next to hers, because he couldn't bring himself to touch her with the blood on his hands.

"I got in a fight today. I know I shouldn't've, but a friend needed help." He shrugged, and tapped the bed nervously. "But that's no excuse, is it? I broke a man's jaw for my girlfriend. You'd think I'd learned conflict resolution, but I didn't and I'm sorry. I just want to protect the girls, y'know. They're young and lost." He laid his head down on the bed. "I'm the oldest I should lead by example. I can hear you say it now, but I wouldn't be in the Coven if you were awake." He sighed and closed his eyes. "I'll do better. I promise. No more violence, unless absolutely necessary. Right."

~.~

Herik stayed in the hospital all night, until the nurse woke him up the next morning. He went home, eat, showered, and put an ace bandage on his shoulder, the pain finally hit him. He changed into a purple mini jersey shorts and started his work out. He switched between one arm push ups and sit ups in his living room, until a half hour before the Coven meeting. He got half way there, before getting out his car with a water bottle in his hand. He hadn't worked out the shame from yesterday and his workout at home wasn't enough, so he jogged the rest of the way to Lucky Strike Casino. Most members were there when he came in. He smiled the best he could, then sat away from everyone else at the furthest end of the bar. He didn't have to wait long for Madison and Claudette to come in, Madison asking for help with something called the Hound. From the way Babylon explained it, the creature didn't seem like the type to throw fists at. A grim reaper of sorts. Sounds like something best to avoid. He barely flinched at Madison's Jaws.

"I'll help you with anything you need. I'd help any of you, but I think we need to be careful. Some of us got hurt yesterday." He looked at Sin. She got shot and could have died. "This...Hound doesn't sound like something we should mess with. Babylon said it takes souls to the other side." As much as he doesn't trust Babylon he couldn't see a reason for her to lie about this. "What if it takes one of us? Is whatever you're looking worth your friends' lives?"

closed or whatever don't look at this

Nope. I'm good with them knowing each other. I like the dynamic we have so far.

So all our characters will know each other? Other than whoever new we get?

Recollections: The Coven [COMPLETED]

They were given two hours, before they had to meet at a trailer park called Greenwood with masks to hide their faces. Herik decided it would be best to eat and get out of his uniform, before meeting up. He spent an hour at his favorite diner: Adrian's Skillet. It's a nice little play usually visited by the elderly and mostly staffed by senior citizens during the day and college students at night. They had the best food in Tampa. He pulled a yellow shirt and his brown thong sandals out of his duffel bag, then went into the restaurant with the bag on his shoulder. He was greeted by Yvonne, she always worked the afternoon shift. She took his order after he sat down in his usual booth next to the window where he got the most sun. The portion sizes were larger than the average person could eat for a decent price. He put away two plates of five large pancakes, eight sausages, and four scrambled eggs. He had orange juice instead of coffee, he preferred sweet and a little tart to bitter. After he paid the check, he went to the bathroom and changed out of his trunks and into blue jersey shorts.

Herik looked in his trunk for anything he could fight vampires with. Because of conflicting information about what they could do, he decided he need the basics. At least a wood stake. Oh wait, Kayla said not to kill anyone. Okay, so no stake. That's fine. He didn't want to take a life, even though it's a vampire. They had emotions and families too. Would a cross do the trick? Maybe some holy water, but he didn't know a priest. He couldn't ask his mother. She knew all sorts of people. Oh wait, he does have a cross. He closed the trunk and slid into the driver's seat. On his rear view mirror hung a rosary his mother always wore around his neck. She gave it to him when he started his life guard job over fifteen years ago. She said it would keep him safe. He couldn't wear on the job, because it was too long so he hung it up in his car. He pulled it off the mirror and placed it around his neck. He was ready to go.

~.~

He arrived at Greenwood right after Kayla. There was traffic on the way and he got turned around on the GPS a few times, but he made it. He parked the last in the line down the street from the trailer they were supposed to have it out at. He climbed out of his car and got half way to the group, before he remembered he was supposed to wear a mask. He didn't have one, so he improvised with red shirt he had in his bag. He tore it along the seam on the sides and around the neck. The pieces of the front, back, and sleeves were left. He tied the front piece around his face and stuffed the shambles in his pocket. He assumed the fight would get bloody. Maybe someone will need to clean up after they're done.

He caught up to them on the tail end of Kayla saying, "You follow me in there, you don't leave without everyone else. Now or never, girls."
Oh, it's happening now. Great! He kept his smile, though he was a little nervous about resorting to violence. He's not sure how much a vampire could take and he didn't want to hurt anyone too bad like he did when he was sixteen. Kayla didn't have any reservations about that, because she jabbed the man that opened the door in the throat, then choked him out with a chain cloaked in her magic. Ellie screamed behind him, so he turned around to see her on her knees shaking. He looked behind him, the fight escalated when everyone else joined the fight and vampires that transformed into bat attacked them. He wasn't expecting this. It was violent and grungy. He looked back at Ellie and Claudette. Claudette would fine if something came their way, but Ellie's magic wasn't combat oriented. She'd be a sitting duck if anything came her way and Claudette wasn't there to protect her. He decided that he'll keep an eye out if he needed to come back and fight the creatures. With more hands on deck they'll finish it quickly and Ellie wouldn't need saving, because it'd be over soon enough.

Herik only ran a few feet from the tree when a vampire swooped down to grab him with its claws. He reached for it, grabbed its ankle, and set his feet into the ground, shifting his weight and holding steady so it wouldn't be easy to lift him off his feet. The vampire flapped its wings stronger, but Herik wouldn't let go. He pulled down, muscles and veins bulging in his arms. It shrieked and flapped harder, but he pulled it down harder, hands gripping fur further up its leg until he had it around the waist. He shifted his weight back on his heels, bent backwards, and threw the creature in a suplex. Herik's back hit the ground, but he barely felt it. He quickly rolled onto his feet and grabbed the creature around neck and locked it in a choke hold, his bicep cut off its breathing. Oh right, Ellie. She's right there. He can't choke it out. She yelled after Kayla did it to the man. He let it go, but flipped it onto its back and punched it in the face, until it blacked out. His hand hurt and he's sure he broke something, but he didn't dwell on it. He's used to adrenaline masking the worst of his injuries.

He barely moved a foot before another came him, clawed hands ready to tear into him. Herik was significantly taller and more muscled than this one. He elbowed the creature's nose. He punched it in the face right at the joint that kept the jaw hinged. It broke under his hit and went down. He was lingering on the outskirts for Ellie just encase. One came him fist raised. Herik slipped passed the fist, and tucked the vampire's arm into his armpit, pulled, then kicked its feet out from under him. It hit the ground, where he wrestled it onto its stomach with its arm bent back and up onto its shoulder blade.

"Tap out!" He yelled at it. The creature struggled, until Herik pushed its arm up and it dislocated from the shoulder. The shriek pierced his ears, but he didn't let up until it stopped moving. He smashed it face into the concrete, then moved onto the next one. This ran at him, so he rushed it, got down low, grabbed its legs, and flipped it over his back. The creature hit its head on the way down, knocking it out. Herik backed towards the tree, but kept enough distances to fight comfortably.
