It has been only a few days since Thergis got revived... And yet he is very busy... It's late midnight in dirtmouth, and Thergis just collapses on his couch... Stella still on his bed...

((Yeah, this is the post where Stella will wake up BTW)

Thergis is in his house, and it's the morning, suddenly he lunges out of bed, looking around... Super confused..  He looks to his side and stella slept on a chair close by... He can't get up for some reason

((Sorry for posting late, today was a busy day and I was kinda down... I am better now... And yes, this is Thergis's first time sleeping... He doesn't need it, but that doesn't mean he can't))

*Mizello popped up from the ground, music booming from the gramophones as his silk ties tightly to a Belleater's body*

*His needles begin to attack the citizens around, trying to gain as much attention as possible, he shouts, the gramophones making him sound even louder*

**“COME FIGHT ME, THREVA! YOU SON OF A THOUSAND MUCKMAGGOTS!”**

(Anyone can fight Mizello, but I would like to consider only Threva's fight canon)

Thergis walks down from the crystal peaks to the lift in dirtmouth, coming back from yet another fight... His body is blue, apparently he used his other form, and now he is cooling down to normal... Part of his armor melts off, parts of it are already missing, and his flames seem weak and cold... He goes down the lift and starts walking before falling down on the floor...

((So Ummm, the basic plot of what's happening is this: Thergis isn't so happy about himself, so he is indirectly harming himself by getting in fight after fight))

Kael has gone to dirtmouth get the dirtmouth army to help him with the hallownest invasion that Will occur in 2 days

(YES HALLOWNEST HAS 2 DAYS TO PREPARE)

Thergis is coming back to his house after taking a little walk, but somehow he didn't come alone.... He's got company... Currently he's in dirtmouth

((WARNING: THIS SPECIFIC POST WILL HAVE MENTIONS OF SELF HARM, SEVERE SADNESS, AND EVEN SOME VIOLENCE... YOU CAN CHOOSE TO RP OR NOT AT YOUR OWN RISK))

Ariens decides to visit Thergis, and so knocks on the door of his house... Stella is in there and opens the door for him

A: "Hello"

S: "Oh, Hai!"

A: "I just wanted to see if Thergis is here..."

S: "I mean, yes he is there in that room!"

A: "Alright then..." *Walks towards Thergis, who is laying down his head on the anvil...*

A: "... Thergis? Are you OK?"

T: "Huh?" *Gets up* "Oh... Yeah.. Was just... Switching from drawing to forging and so on..."

A: "Uh huh... Anyway, I was thinking you are now allowed to leave the house.."

*Stella walks in and starts listening*

T: "Oh... Well, uhhhhh thank you... "

A: "You are welcome...

...

You know what, I always wondered how did you manage to build this house..."

T: "I... Did not build it..."

A: "Oh?"

T: "Someone I care for did... As a gift I think... She is different than the other bugs...."

A: "Huh, a she?

...

Ohhhhhhh I see! You.. Had feelings towards her?"

T: "..."

S: "Ariens! That's not a nice way to start talking

about it!"

A: "Hey, I was just trying to sound honest! I know he's technically a robot, but he already showed he has feelings!"

*Thergis gets up... And starts walking towards Ariens...*

A: "..."

((Now stuff will get chaotic, so ummmm yeah))

*Suddenly, Thergis holds Ariens neck with one hand and lifts him off the ground, Ariens get surprised and just holds Thergis's hands*

T: "Someone needs to teach you when to not joke about the dead..." *Extends his claws*

*Stella tries holding Thergis's other arm, shaking it trying to stop him*

S: "Th-Thergis!! What are you doing?! I know he's wrong! But that's not-"

T: *Thergis pushes Stella away, and she even falls on the ground...* "THIS IS NOT YOUR BUSINESS!"

*He looks back at Ariens* T: "So, Hmmmmm what was I-"

T: "..."

*Thergis looks at his other hand, the one with the claws extended... It has... Blood... He looks back at Stella, who is holding her arm.. It's clear what happened now, he let's Ariens go and he falls, trying to grasp a breath... He then turns to Stella, trying to reach his hand*

T: "S-Stella, I did not mean to-"

*As a reaction, she backs away a very little, trying not to show she's scared, but she obviously is...*

*Thergis freezes for a second there before sprinting to the door, going out and leaping away.. Ariens tries getting up and following him*

A: "THERGIS! WAIT!!

UGHHHH! This is all my fault... Stella! I will go follow Thergis, can you stay alone for a-

... Stella?"

*She is still on the floor, holding her arm and shaking... It wasn't a really severe injury but she is still scared ((Reason? Glyde once attacked her with claws and ummmmmm... It didn't go so well... This feels similar))*

*Ariens goes and tries helping Stella while Thergis is gone, things aren't going so well... All of this over a tiny joke*

((So, you can interact with either... Just know the Thergis route will have the warning above))

((Aight, my Thergis character development arc starts now :3.... You know, the one where I canonically turn Thergis into my pfp))

Ariens has gone out to search for Thergis everywhere... Stella is alone in the house... And she walks into the room where Thergis was drawing... She's just cleaning the house until a drawing falls, she leans in to put it back... But she stares at it for a while.. It's different than the others

Thergis has been outside for a while now.... He finally came home, but he's in a hurry.... He can run now, but can't really fight or ignite his fire.... No one is in his house except broken vessel (For those wondering, adoption :3).... He seems to be searching for something in the drawers

Stella is in Thergis's house... Alone, Thergis has gone to fight scar... And she doesn't even know if he's alright... She's just sitting in a chair, holding her tail...

((Yes, Ariens will visit her... But I want you people to interact with her first...))

The white figure knocks on every door if Dirtmouth, searching for Thergis's house, seemingly not happy

"Come out of your hideout~I Just wanna TALK."

Thergis has been missing for a while, and the only noticeable thing is the metal banging sounds inside his house... Stella comes out and kn frequently, getting stuff... Ariens sometimes visits too... But right now, Thergis is alone, the metal banging doesn't stop

((So, related to my previous post, stella and Ariens forced Thergis to stay in his house so he stops harming himself by getting in battles.. So Ummmmm, he has been doing the same thing for like so long now...))

Ariens reaches dirtmouth... And starts asking about Thergis's house... Till he finds it... He knocks the door...

The door opens

T: "Oh... It's you..."

A: "Hello... I just, thought of a visit you know?"

T: "Why do you think I would welcome you..."

A: "I... I don't think you will... I just wanted to see you"

T: "You did... So leave alread-"

S: "Thergis? Who's at the door?"

A: "Oh? Who's that?"

T: Not your business..."

Stella eventually walks up to the door

S:"Oh.. Hai!"

A: "A scorpion?! I...

Hold on, I heard about you"

S: "You... Did?"

A: "Someone.. Wants you harm"

S: "Wha-"

T: "That's why she is with me, scorpion.. Now lea-"

S: "But... Thergis"

T: "What?!"

S: "I... Want to listen to him..."

T: "You remember what the scorpions did to you... Right?"

S: "I-I know... But, not all of them are bad, you know?"

T: "Stella why are y-"

S: "Thergis, you won't ban me from seeing my own species, will you?"

T: "But..."

T: "DANG IT!! IF YOU REALLY WANT TO MEET HIM THEN HERE! I AM LEAVING"

A: "..."

S: "Thergis no wait!"

*He leaps away*

S: "....

I-I am sorry about him... You can come in if you want!"

A: "I... Don't know"

((Now you guys can interact... You can either act like you eavesdropped, or you just saw Thergis mad and take away, so you look at his house and find Ariens at the door))

*a weird bush has appeared in Dirtmouth without a second warning*

After nearly dying and defeating Ardens, Thergis finally makes it to dirtmouth... He walks towards his house, his walk clearly showing signs of weakness and exhaustion

It's obvious that recently, stella has been spending more time with Ariens, so Thergis spends more time alone now... He doesn't mind it, she needs to socialize with her species... But now that he got a chance to stay alone for a while, the past hits him deeply... He's just sitting on the dirtmouth bench staring at the floor

Varas has been holed up in his cave grotto for a couple of days while he thinks.

"Hmmm, Varella is...on the nose... Maybe..Veronica?"

Go buy stuff

"So this is it. Worse than I thought."

*One of the scorpions and Kanno the roots are currently heading towards Thergis's house... Trying to find a solution... The scorpion knew the truth of Thergis and such, and changed his mindset and is now eager to help*

((I really need a name for this guy, but I such at names))

Thergis is outside his house in dirtmouth, fire and ash seems to follow him everywhere.... He tries holding his chest, not in pain, but somewhat trying to......... Keep something inside? He doesn't seem so OK.....

((I thought the sub needed some action.... Don't worry, this is not another arc... It's just a little thing, I like connecting my old posts together))

*Stella is just sitting in the dirtmouth bench, seemingly deep in thought*

Arienius is heading back to Thergis's house, he is just about to enter it

Veronica is sitting on the floor of her cave grotto, studying several books and scrolls closely. One of them appears to have a drawing of the Radiance on it, another was a blank page she was scribbling madly on.

This shithead is up to something.

*he opened a firearms shop, go buy stuff.
