Thread: RicStar have futher emotions. Characters: Rictor and Shatterstar. NPCs: -- Location: Their hiding spot in the attic, Xavier school. Timeline: Monday, 26 November 2012. Extremely early morning. Description: If Star didn't want company, he shouldn't've hidden in the spot Ric knows about. :) Rating: F for feels, idk.
Shatterstar wasn't in the infirmary this time; that had been the first place Rictor had checked for him after the missing students were back. It was full of other kids in various states of injury, exhaustion, trauma, dehydration, and other things, and he was in the way there, so he'd gone back to the rec room to wait because Star would probably turn up there eventually, that was something he could rely on.
Only he didn't, and after a full day Ric was concerned enough to go looking. It wasn't much of a hunt, really; he had a hunch that his friend could be found in the same place Star had come looking for him not so long ago. So here he was, at an ungodly-early hour of the morning after yet another restless night, lugging a bag of popcorn and a couple things of orange juice and a flashlight up into the warm, quiet attic.
He paused outside of his little nook (well, their little nook now, he guessed), because he definitely didn't want to startle Shatterstar. Not after all he'd just been through. "Star?" he said quietly, leaning through the door just a little. "It's me. Can I come in?"
