"Wh-where are you, mom...?"
[i]It was the lonely cry of a young boy, searching for his lost mother; whether it was the mother who was lost, or him, it was uncertain.
The boy wandered the dojo courtyard near where Terrek had set up his picnic blanket; he appeared to be around age 13, and was rather tall for his age, at 5'5". He was skinny, also; his body type was a combination between ectomorph and mesomorph.
He had a head of pale, blond hair, and smooth, pale skin; his eyes were a solemn aquamarine, however they were fogged over; he wasn't blind, but he clearly had a vision disability.
He wore simple, ragged clothes; a torn, dirty white t-shirt, and black sweatpants with holes in the legs. His feet were bare, covered in dirt and soot; multiple scrapes could be seen, however the bleeding had long stopped.
The boy continued to wander, slowly aimlessly drawing closer to Terrek.[/i]

"Hello there young person of whom I know nothing about, would you care to sit and join me in the consumption of organic matter?" *Terrek looked like he had been pulled straight out of a 30's style cartoon. He was covered in black and white fur with his only clothing being a pair of cartoony grey shoes and a pair of four-fingered white gloves. His arms and legs did not seem to have elbows and knees, but instead would bend down their whole length like soggy noodles. His tail was forked at the end, with the top half being black and the bottom half being white. He hat a large nose like an otter and two big, black, cheese-wheel-missing-a-slice eyes like old cartoons. Protruding from the back of his head were two long ears, overall making his head profile look like a severely misshapen hammer. Misshapen to the extent that there was no way someone would think it's a hammer. There was a pair of fur-covered nubs on each cheek, shoulder, and in the center of his chest. And though he wore nothing other than shoes and gloves, he did not seem to have any 'privates' of any kind. Which raised all sorts of questions which don't need to be answered so don't ask. His voice itself was calm and soothing, which was strange since it sounded like he had been smoking since he was a baby.*

[i]The boy could see Terrek's torso, legs, tail... but couldn't seem to see the features of his face or head. He stared blankly at Terrek's face, almost as though he was staring through the furry. He cautiously approaching the creature; as he drew closer, it was clear that he was entirely unarmed. Of course, because he was only 13.[/i] "Wh-who are you...? Have you seen my mom...?" [i]He asked, his voice shaky and his lips quivering unconsciously.[/i]

"No, I have not seen your mother, but my name is Terrek and you are safe near me. Please, sit down and eat some food. There are very important matters we have to discuss." *Terrek beckoned the boy. Somehow, his features seemed to focus just enough for the boy to be able to see them. How he did this was unclear, but it was most likely due to his unique perspective on the workings of the universe and his insider information he has on such workings.*

[i]Even if Terrek's features did focus, Ike had already looked away, silently situating himself on the picnic blanket. He looked around, searching for the food one might bring to a picnic. He did not respond to Terrek after he had said that he did not know where his mother was; the boy seemed to be a rather quiet individual, to say the least.[/i]

Edited by Skatch142: 6/23/2017 4:17:02 PM*Terrek sets up the picnic basket on a set of four rollerskates. He then shoves it in Ike's direction, causing the basket to roll a whopping four inches before one of the skates catches and the basket overturns, happening to drop a bowl full of Ike's favorite food on his lap along with a bucket full of every eating utensil imaginable landing next to him.* "Just think of the utensil you need and pull it from the bucket without looking." *Terrek was holding a six foot long baguette, at least until he bit off exactly 1.641 feet of one end, leaving it as a 4.359 foot long baguette.*
