aShton stood up, carefully keeping his wings still. "Grass wrapping because I asked them too. Trees move because Daddy asked them too," AShton said, pointing at his father. The branches stopped, undecided, then wrapped around the boys waist. Thorn growled loudly, his tail twitching.

Mannaz beamed. He never thought he would meet natural earth-speakers! It had taken him years to figure out, and he still could never get the accents right...
Koumori seemed to be ignoring what was happening with the branches and grass. "Interesting question. I believe that I am some sort of mutation off of the basic bat demon genetic code... Hence the lack of wings and fur..." She came back to her 'normal' self. "Who are you talking about? If you are human, what happened to you?!"

"Oh, right, you asked them to. Makes sense." He watched the tree branches wrap around his middle and stared, dumfounded. "Wow, that's got to be some strong stuff in my system, huh? I mean, hehe, trees don't move and - heeheehee - this can't possibley be happening - and bat demons!" He was about to say more, but he began breaking down into a giggle fit. Or possibley a panic attack. Whichever it was, Howie was overwhelmed and too mixed up to pull himself back together.

ashton watched, confused. "Daddy, what's going on?" he asked. Thorn stopped growling and walked over to the small group, still in his dragon form. He picked the boy up with one claw and held him so that he had to look at him. "You are very sssstrange, boy," he hissed. The trees released the boy and resumed their natural state, not looking as if they had moved at all.

"And you, sir!" Crowed Howie, "Are a very sssstrange man!" He dissolved into another barrage of giggles, his antennae flopping over to one side. He twisted, noticing the other person in the clearing. "And you! What might you be? A unicorn in disguise? Hey, the collar's a fine fashion statement, but I don't think we're that far gone yet, hm?" By this point, his mouth was running far ahead of his brain. He didn't know half of what he was saying, and the moth part of his mind was flailing around in a fright at the physical contact.

Mannaz decided to intervene. He sent a small amount of calming energy in Howe's direction, hoping to would relax him a bit. At least then, he would stop gibbering.
Koumori hissed slightly, under her breath. The idiot was using healing magic. Damn him.

" Redrick eyes widened, no one has asked him that before.. what was he? what did master say.. oh yes! "

Thorn growled. "Open your eyes, fool. I'm a dragon," he said, tightening his grip fractionally. AShton scrambled over to his dad. "Daddy...this boy is crazy. LIke...crazy crazy...isn't he?" he asked, one hand on his father's side.

"Abominations! All of us! A toast to science!" Howie let out a few last giggles, then seemed to calm down a bit as Mannaz's magic hit him. He hung limply in Thorn's grasp, managing to stay subdued to the point where he was only hyperventilating and trembling uncontrollabley. Intellectually, he wasn't particularly bothered by someone lifting him up, but the close proximity was making the moth side of him increasingly nervous. Oh well, it hadn't made him sick yet, at least.
He blinked dully at Thorn and Ashton. "Sure, man. Dragons. Whatever makes you happy."

Thorn sighed and dropped the boy. Literally. aShton walked over to the boy and poked him. "...you're crazy," he said simply.

" he looked down, feeling on the collar around his neck. he felt on the scarrings under it, then he looked up again at the dragon and the biy "
- but ifwe all are abominations why do you treat each other badly? or are you a master, dwagon?

Thorn sighed again, and returned to his semi-human form. "The boy is too close to my son," he answered simply, keeping an eye on Ashton on the moth boy.

Mannaz sighed. "Thank goodness!" He 'forgot' to add that if he had accidently put too much energy out, the moth-man might have been knocked out for hours, and woken up with a hangover of sorts.
Koumori smiled, and it was more of a sneer, as allways. "You were talking of someone before. What happened to you, and who is 'He'?"

Howie collapsed where he was dropped, staring blankly up at the sky. "I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead/ I lift my lids and all is born again/ I think I made you up inside my head," he muttered. "Yeah, kid. I'm bat-s*** crazy. All in the name of science, you understand."
He tried to prop himself up on his elbows to look at Koumori, but found it took too much effort. Instead he waved a hand vaguely. "Scientist. The crazy one. Runs the whole damn joint, y'know?"

Thorn looked at the coller criticly, thinking. "I could break that, I think. as long as it isn't bespelled," he said.
Ashton poked the boy again, harder this time. With his claw. "ashton is real. What is science?" he asked.

The only science Koumori bothered with was based in the mathematics of magic... Although she knew a good deal about chemistry... "This... Scientist of whom you speak. He is altering your biochemistry to be closer to that of a moth?"
Mannaz stopped channeling the calming energy. That should be enough. He sighed, watching Koumori.

" Redrick smiles widely, without his collar he would feel free, for real." - Thank you Dwagon!
" Redricks eyes almost glowed with joy "

"Something like that. He keeps injecting us with s***. The changes hurt like hell," Howie explained, frowning a little and twitching an antenna involuntarily. "Sure you're real, kid. I've seen stranger mutations. Science is a load of bull bastards use to ruin the lives of perfectly decent folk."

Thorn smiled and went over to the boy. he gripped the coller in both hands and pulled it apart. With a crack, the coller broke. "There you are," Thorn said, dropping the broken coller on the ground.
ashton sighed. "No, Ashton was born this way," he said simply, poking the boy even harder.

" Redrick felt on his neck, this was the first time he had touched the skin there. it was quite alot of bruising and scarr tissue, he was quite stunned. "

"As was I," Interjected Koumori, ears still flat against her head, as though they were shy, "What is the point of turning you into a moth-thing?"
Mannaz daydreamed. He stared off into the treetops, a sleepy smile creeping across his sallow features.

"What, is he experimenting on fetuses now?" Howie mumbled. He felt unusually mellow, and not everything was filtering through his fuzzy mind. Obviously. "What's with the poking, runt? I'm not going to do a trick." He swatted the claw away with a hand that felt like it was coated in hard plastic.
"How should I know the point of it," He replied crossly. "He started out trying to find alternative gene treatments. For people with disabilities and crap. If you ask my opinion, he's crazier than the whole lot of us!"

ashton yelped in surprise, and Thorn was instantly by his side. He lefted the boy up by his shirt. "Don't. Touch. My. Son," he growled, each word punctuated by a shake.

Howie smiled lazily and blinked at the angered man. "He touched me first," he countered. The shaking didn't bother him, but a medium-sized book fell from its hiding spot in his waistband. Howie's eyes widened when he saw it and he gave a surprised yelp.

Mannaz was knocked clean out of his daydream by the sudden yelp. He practically jumped. "Ashton?! Are you allright?"
Koumori slapped her forehead. This was getting rediculous. The moth-boy didn't seem to have any usefull information about his... 'Condition', and seemed as though he had inhaled something illegle. She swooped down, for lack of a better word, and scooped up the book. "What is this, praytell?"
