- Cassius Arphralos - 05-08-2010 [html] OOC: Shattered Coast, by CdM borders. DD
------------------------------------------------------------
Cassius never bothered to wander past any borders that weren't Inferni's. he had already made a huge step (literally) crossing Inferni's borders to the outside world. He wasn't that much of a risk taker, even when he was at a younger age. He still liked to have fun though, in his own sheltered hermit way of course. He'd make little gadgets and doodads and things of that nature alone in his loft above D'Neville's garage. He just sat there like a kid with no friends everyday. He felt like he never really was friends with anyone in Inferni. They were all a bunch of crazy, bloodthirsy 'yotes and hybrids (and a 'yote named Hybrid). He was a geeky wimp who had nothing in common with any other members. He definitely wasn't as sinister as most of the other members anyway.
Today, he found himself outside again, by the beach, in neutral territory of course. His flannel flapped in an ocean breeze as he kicked some rocks in the sands. he was definitely bored to death. The rain had cleared up for a while, but the sun did not spread its brightness, as the gloomy clouds covered it. Cass looked up with a frown. The sun would have been a nice cheer-up for him, but alas he would not get any. He scratched his head and flipped his hair to the side. Some company would have been really nice right now.

------------------------------------------------------------
Cassius didn't know it yet, but he wasn't alone anymore. An adolescent was lurking just out of his sight. When the kid actually called out to him, he didn't expect it at all. He had been too distracted by the waves, the beach, and being bored. Boredom took up quite a bit of Cass' thinking space up in that big noggin of his. He was smart, sure, but he wasn't exactly the smartest. He jumped and spun around, surprised to hear some sort of voice coming from nowhere. "SuhWEEEET mother of Jesus! Now who'd been callin' out to me here? We got'sa ninja up o'er hur?" he called back to the voice, still looking for where the owner sat.
He peeked around and a smallish figure came into his sights. He seemed like a kid, but just bigger. Not like Mhkai, the annoying Lykoi, but sort of like Halo's height, but this was a male. He noticed a raggy looking scarf around his neck and his waving arm, so he assumed he was a friendly. "Well, howdy! I din't see y'all o'er theres," he noted shyly, rubbing the back of his head. "I reckon y'all scared me a l'il bit, but I'mma be fine. Y'know, I cin take it." He smiled at the kid and held out a hand for a traditional human handshake. "I ain't seen y'all a'fore. Name's Cassius Arphalos, but y'all can just call me Cass, I s'pose. What's yer name, kid?"

- Cassius Arphralos - 05-08-2010 [html] OOC: Omg i love him already <333 WANT Cass is probably scaring him though. Normally he has the D: face
------------------------------------------------------------
The other in his presence was in fact a kid, a wolf-dog to be much more specific. He was probably from a nearby pack, which didn't surprise Cassius much. He seemed just as friendly as he was, and that made Cassius even more boisterous than he was already. "WELL!" he shouted back to the child. Of course anyone would want to be a ninja. "I dun blame y'all, good sir!" Cassius finished. He was going to have so much fun today. The child seemed to be confused, and a little shy, but Cass just ruffled the teen's head fur and released a hearty laugh. "Dun 'pologize, son! Y'all did nothin' wrong! Y'all were being excited," he paused grabbing the kid in an one-armed hug. "I like it!" He let go of the poor kid, who was probably freaking out at the fact that a coyote was within ten feet of him and not trying to rip his intestines out already.
As the kid introduced himself, Cass' face contorted into a look of interest. "Well I never," he began, "Thought I'd be meetin' such an explorer as yerself, Sir Caillen! It's an honor!" he chuckled loudly. He liked this kid. After introductions were in order, Cai asked Cass exactly what he was, which seemed obvious to the hybrid, but he decided to give the boy the benefit of the doubt. "Don't worry, y'all cin jus' call me, Cass," he chuckled. "An' as fer me, I'ma coyote, yes -well mostly, I'm part wolf too- BUT," he spoke dramtically, as if telling a story. "I bet y'all're wonderin' why this 'yote from Inferni ain't trying t'rip yer throat out, huh? Well, 'ave I got somethin' t'tell y'all." His face practically lit with excitement. "I ain't yer ordinary 'yote. No no no, I ain't. Y'see, I an't a warrior fer the Inferni folk. I'mma mechanic, son!" he threw his arms up, like it was a big surprise. "Bet, y'all din't expect a big scary 'yote t'be all smart would'ya? Lemme tell, tell y'all I reckon I din't either when I first got here. I'm the only mechanic fer miles it seems. And yer the first explorer I've done seen, so it seems we've got somethin' in common, huh?"

- Cassius Arphralos - 05-09-2010 [html] OOC: every time i imagine cass talking he becomes a whale XD that or a superpedo because he totally seems like one now.
------------------------------------------------------------
Cassius was thrilled at Caillen's excitement. Everyone around here was either all doom and gloom, super violent, or just plain crazy. This kid was none of the above, and it made Cass glad that there were some sane people around this place. However, Caillen still seemed a little freaked out being near a coyote, but Cassius frankly couldn't blame him. A violent stereotype had been plastered on all 'yotes everywhere, so think about how that affected poor Cassius, who not only wouldn't hurt by a fly, the fly would probably freak him out so much he'd run away! His overall friendliness seemed foreign to all the wolves he met around here, which meant the coyotes here probably stuck to the stereotype given to them. That was their choice though, not Cass', and so the Southerner kept to his benevolent ways and practiced his mechanic skills.
Caillen's answer to Cassius' mechanic skills made him laugh extremely loudly. He thought it was funny, how innocently blunt this kid was. Cassius accepted himself as a wolf in a coyote's body pretty much. He leaned over, trying to breathe in his fit of laughter. "BAHAHAHAHAAAA!" he yelled. He straightened himself back up and look right at the boy. "Well, y'all know what? I din't either!" he announced as he threw up his hands. "I though all 'em 'yotes were like me! Seems like I'm the smartest fer miles. He swept his hand across like he was painted a stroke across a canvas with paint, as if showing Cai his view. "An' there ain't many 'yotes were I came from, so I reckon I din't know any better, y'know?"
The goggle-toting hybrid was also happy to see Cai so happy about their common traits. The kid supposed that he had some adventures. Oh, did he. "DO I?" he roared, a giant smile forming on his face. "Well, I reckon y'all din't know I done served in the Dahila/Inferni war, did'ja?" he said with a silly "matter-of-factly" tone. "I done built an' set them traps out near Inferni's borders, y'see. All o'dem were of my own design. I also repaired this suuuuper old compound bow fer this lady from AniWaya." He still remember quite a bit of his life from before the war, and even before he joined Inferni. Every detail in fact. "Even better, afore the war, I done had t'boat up this looooong river t'get 'ere. I ain't from 'ere y'see. I done came from waaaaaay South."
Then the kid asked about living with them. He patted him on the head with a smile. "Siddown with me. I'll sure tell y'all 'bout livin' with 'em." He sat down on a log that was nearby, patting next to him for Caillen to sit. "Well, first thang, y'all gotta know: All 'em 'yotes're are a big bag o'crazy. That's a given," he explained, holding up his index finger. "So that leads y'all t'figure out which ones to watch out fer. There's them normal crazies: they just run around causing minor shenanigans." Cass knew Cai should know this kind of stuff from all the wolves around. "Then there's the super-crazy violent ones, those're the ones y'all wanna avoid. They'll rip yer balls off. Trust me, I seen it." now that last part was a blatant lie, but it sure sounded like a good story, right?

- Cassius Arphralos - 05-29-2010 [html] OOC: ugh sorry for the wait. I'm busting my ass trying to respond to all my threads D:
------------------------------------------------------------
As he spoke, the young male seemed to jump at his jolly laughing, but he still hung on the every word, like he was dangling from a cliff and those words were the only things keeping him up. Cassius actually never talked to someone so interested in his lifestyle, or just him in general. Caillien was so mesmerized by the fact that Cass had been living with these "crazy" coyotes for such a long period of time. Cass continued on with his explanations.
Then Cai asked an unusual question. Why was he living with them then? To be frank, he actually didn't know. He had no way to answer that question without saying he had no clue. Digging in his head for a legitimate answer, Cass plucked one and threw it out in place of his non-answer. "Well... somebody's gotta help them out! They look so... primitive without someone like me to educate them. Err... somewhat." It was a bullshit response, but what else could he say?
