“You don’t need to look so worried. I’m just going to bring back everything that was lost… and erase some things that never should have existed.”

“You don’t have a choice, Razer. I’m going to fix everything, and I can’t afford anything getting in my way.”

      “Okay fine but…y’know what nevermind. I’ll ask more later.” she commented, brushing hair out of her face as she then gestured for the crimson clad male before her to follow her, “Least we have a way out of here now, huh?”

“If they sent you, wouldn’t it be obvious that this was going to be a fool’s errand?” Xaffreon let out a single breath of laughter as they watched the other, unmistakably proud of their attempt at a joke, “Food’s easier to steal than other items you could want. Takes out a bit of the excitement, but it’s still entertaining.” A slight nod finished their… eh, assessment 

They took a step towards the other, eyes glinting with mild interest, and ill intent, “But do you really think you can fix up my Dark Star? It’s a bit beat up; I had a short and unpleasant encounter with an unfriendly smuggler– left a few holes in the outer hull, a couple of scrapes and dents here and there. Also life support’s down.”

They let a slight grin spread across their face before continuing,  “Either way– if you can, or can’t help me, ‘s long as you don’t bail when anything happens, it sounds like fun! Honestly, it’s about time I got to do something around here.”

“What kind of food were you hoping to find? Your crew- ‘re they carnivores? Omnivores? What?”

       Razer flashes them a sharp look, jaw clenching as he bites back a growl. It may be a joke, but it’s not one he finds amusing in the slightest. He wants to voice his objection, but decides to instead focus on task at hand --- a task that’s more important than his offense.

       He considers the question, then nods. “I have a lot of experience fixing ships of many kinds, some of which were likely in worse condition than yours. It won’t be a problem.” Perhaps that is a bold assumption to make before he has even seen the make of the ship or what kind of shape it’s in, but his engineering abilities are something in which he is fairly confident. And if he is unable to repair all of it alone, perhaps Jordan or Aya could offer their assistance. That would, of course, mean involving them in this little scheme --- and is therefore to be considered only as a last resort.

       “I won’t bail on you when the going gets hard, if that’s what you’re asking. You have my word on that.” He relaxes his stance slightly, glancing towards the main street as a particularly loud group goes by. “Omnivores. Food that can be stored efficiently and for long periods of time would be preferred, but given our situation I will not be picky.” Their various favored foods may be different from one another, but when it comes down to it they could all feasibly survive on an omnivore diet --- at least until they are able to restock more thoroughly. 

“I appreciate the offer, but it’s… doubtful. Go back to the Interceptor. You don’t want to get caught up in what’s coming.”

EMOTIONS / FEELINGS:

001. Anger

002. Stubbornness

003. Cynicism 

004. Uncertainty

GREETINGS:

001. His favored greeting is usually just a nod of the head. Sometimes this is accompanied by a vague sound of greeting, but not always.

002. Razer doesn’t usually start with introducing himself. He’s more likely to lead with a question, a statement, or a warning.

003. What greetings he does offer are always reserved and given with a combination of distrust and caution towards the other party. 

COLORS:

001. Red

002. Black

003. White

004. Blue

SCENTS:

001. Metal

002. Nutmeg

003. Mint

CLOTHING:

001. Red Lantern Corps armor --- denoted by the emblem in the center of the chest. Streamlined for flight, but accented with jagged edges.

002. Brown and grey Volkregian clothing when not in his armor, composed of a tunic, head covering, and belt with Volkregian script.

003. It seems like head/hair coverings are very traditional among all genders on Volkreg, so even if he were to wear other outfits this would likely remain constant.

OBJECTS:

001. Red Lantern power ring

002. The blue “hope/Razaya” flower

003. Various knives and throwing stars

VICES / BAD HABITS:

001. Anger: Razer has a very short temper. He’s more likely to resort to yelling or violence first, rather than think things through further or respond calmly. This can lead to him generally pushing people away as his first response.

002. Pessimism: Just as his first response to a situation is with anger, that anger is usually followed by a pessimistic view of potential outcomes.

003. Avoidance: Both of people and of problems. He’s the type who’d rather fight a problem than face it, and when that problem is a personal one with someone else, he’s more likely to push them away or just ignore it rather than face it.

004. Sarcasm: When faced with suggestions or ideas that seem unwise or unlikely to work, Razer is very prone to responding with sarcasm. This sarcasm usually takes on a harsh tone, and is often delivered in a near condescending way.

BODY LANGUAGE:

001. Crossed arms. Lots, and lots, of crossed arms. He does this both to convey his disinterest in a situation and to effectively close himself off from interaction or conversation.

002. Razer is usually tense, ready to snap into battle mode in a moment. This is heightened whenever he’s in an unfamiliar situation or is faced with uncertainty.

003. When stressed, uneasy, or attempting to restrain his temper, Razer frequently clenches one or both firsts. If one hand only, it is always the one bearing his power ring.

004. The action in 003 is often accompanied by the baring of teeth or a frustrated snarl. Razer’s species has sharp, pointed teeth, and this display shows off this characteristic more than usual. 

005. When he is tired and/or in the company of those he’s more comfortable with, Razer’s body language becomes more open: putting his elbows on either side of him instead of pulled in defensively, and he is less on edge than usual.

AESTHETICS:

001. Stars

002. Broken glass

003. Weapons

004. Rain

SONGS:

001. Just One Yesterday - Fall Out Boy

002. Far Too Young To Die - Panic! At the Disco  

003. Empty Gold - Halsey

004. Taxi Cab - Twenty-One Pilots

“…I’m sorry. I’m just on edge. I have so much to do and I’ve barely started with it all.”
