Haha, I'm still just a monster. Though, I guess I kind of look like that.

So... uh... how was the trip?

Iris ended up at Ernest's door, still with Cas in hand, breathing heavily. She definitely ran too much..

Still, she knocks on Ernest's door, trying to catch her breath.

[ Ernest got off the couch, walking to the door. He stared at the handle for a moment before taking a deep breath and opening it. ]

Hello, Love... um... come in.

Oh! Err... hello. No, I'm not a dinosaur, just a monster. I think dinosaurs are rather cool though. I have a documentary on them, actually! I think- I at least used to, it fell from the surface.

[ He clears his throat and looks at Iris. ]

That's understandable, you should probably sit down.

Is this the friend we were talking about earlier? I'm very excited to meet them.

That sounds pretty rough, not being able to keep friends. You may not believe it, but back when I was littler I didn't have many friends, myself. I usually just wanted to sit and read while everyone else played. I liked talking to others and stuff, I just didn't see the point in playing. It led to me not knowing many people. So, I can kind of get it, in a way.

Okay, okay, come on. Let's go to the couch to watch the TV.

[Guess what boy just entered the house.]

Um...

Ernest?

[He tried to come as soft as possible. He wasn't normally good at being soft and quiet.]

It's me, Huck, I'm hoome.

[ No response. ]

[ Ernest was hiding in bathroom, in the shower, the curtain covering it. ]

[the-paranoid-scientist]

Haha, okay Huck. If they come back, I'll call you so you can show them who's boss.

[ He pulled away from the hug, ruffling Huck's hair with a talon. ]

Do you want to come watch a show with me while we wait for Iris? I have my favorite on, if you saw when you walked in.

[ Ernest sighed and hugged Huck back, wrapping his arms and tail around the much smaller boy. His wings had always made for good hugs, but... he didn't have those anymore. ]

...Mhm. Thank you, Huck.

[ He probably would have cried, but he had no more tears left. ]

Whuh...

[ He turned his head, looking at the door. Dad? Huck called him. Dad? He took off his glasses and sniffled, wiping his eyes again. ]

You can call me that, if you want.

I... I don't think you're dumb, at all. I just don't want you worrying about old me when there's so much other stuff happening. Like the humans and the- huhhhggg...

I admit I'm anxious and I'm scared and all, but really, I am at least okay. I don't have the disease anymore. I may not be FINE, but I'm okay. Not dying anymore.

[ ...I'm pretty sure I'm not. ]

...

[ He stood up, staring in the mirror for a few minutes, not saying a word. How did all of this happen. His arms, his legs... pitch black. They felt... wrong too. He looked older, more tired. ]

[ He wiped his eyes, putting his glasses back on and adjusting his clothes so he at least didn't look like he had been freaking out for the past hour. ]

Okay, I'll come out.

[ He took a sharp inhale and turned the doorknob, slowly opening it. ]
