▍ ❝   RULE ONE.
I don't feel comfortable engaging with people under the umbrella of pro-ship or pro-fiction. That is not to say that I am against dark themes or specific kinks being explored, the former publicly & the later privately. I as someone who both participates in kink personally & professionally am simply not comfortable interacting with people who do not do the work to ensure others' safety nor bother deconstructing their own sexuality.I will also not be interacting with some Caleb accounts because of this, depending on how the other writer wants to portray his and MC's dynamic.▍ ❝   RULE TWO.
I also do not feel comfortable interacting with people that are any form of lgbtphobic, racists, zionists, antisemites, or people who are whorephobic (discriminatory towards sex workers), or support ai art. Minors also please do not interact, while there is no lewd content on this account I do not feel comfortable interacting with you in this fandom especially.

▍ ❝   RULE THREE.
The content warnings for this account include what is depicted within L&DS, along with with child abuse, specifically past csa. The latter will never be depicted on this account, && only discussed if plotted out beforehand. More common triggers will be tagged, along with graphic displays of violence.▍ ❝   RULE FOUR.
In order to make things less confusing, posts starting with 🗡️ are Crane speaking, while 🕊️ is Dove. Anything else with be specified or be obvious through context.▍ ❝   RULE FIVE.
Dove is not available for shipping, as he is a child. Crane is, but he && Dove are a package deal. You can't date the bird man without being cool with adopting the bird boy.Smut will be kept to the DMs && will NEVER involve Dove, any attempts to do so will have massive consequences. Don't ask even as a joke.If it's ever unclear, feel free to ask who's speaking OOC either in a reply or a DM.

▍ ❝   RULE SIX.
Never call Dove and Crane's dynamic romantic ooc, not even as a joke. Never ever call either of them a groomer either.If your character makes an assumption IC, that's fine if they genuinely would think something was amiss. If at any point my writing comes across as painting the two as a couple or anything nefarious, please know it was unintentional && will be corrected immediately.▍ ❝   CREDITS.

GENERAL .•   names   : ███ && ████
•   aliases   :   dove && crane
•   ages   :   14 && Old Ass 20-Something Looking
•   genders   :   trans boy && asmab ( assigned sword man at birth ), he/him
•   current location   :   the n109 zone
•   occupation   :   finder of lost things
•  skillset   :   crane is a master swordsman, && is able to withstand any injury so long as his sword ( his true body ) remains intact.in dire circumstances, dove can force crane back into his sword, though neither are comfortable with the idea.dove is able to find the location of any person or object, so long as he knows where it's been at some point. this power does not work on those that have defied fate. his evol gives form to souls without bodies.

PHYSICAL .dove is a fairly normal looking teenager, though he could definitely use a good meal or two. he sticks out a bit among the children of the n109 zone, mostly due to his dark hair (often tied in two ponytails or braids in the front) && nails being well maintained. he's around 5'1, usually wearing glasses. when he's working, he wears black && neon green so crane doesn't lose him if things go south.crane stands out both due to a lack of pigment in his skin && hair, but also because of his golden eyes. he's an elegant man of average-ish height 5'9, contrasting his boyish personality. he insists on wearing white both on && off the clock; dove makes him do the laundry because of this.

MENTAL.•  personalities   :   dove && crane are both characters in their own right, but together they truly shine as premier weirdos.crane is a bit on the immature side, often messing with people to get a rise out of them. despite this, his hobbies are that of an old man.dove is stoic on the surface, but hearing him speak reveals that he's somewhat detached from reality. while crane acts nothing like the immortal being he is, dove acts like an old geezer trying to reign in his troublesome child. crane happily goes along with this, referring to dove as his father both teasingly && seriously.when it comes to cases involving missing people, especially missing children, though, they are dead serious && locked in. god help you if either of them learns that you hurt a kid.

❝ Dove grew up as a sheltered rich kid in Linkon City; only ever really leaving the house for school && public events.His father was a distant man, && his mother even more so. They both come from a long line of seers; prophets, fortune tellers, people who knew fate like the back of their han.But he hadn't shown any signs until puberty came knocking, && his parents discovered that his abilities were... Lacking; too specific, too niche.His parents decided to try for another child, only for his mother pass away during her pregnancy. Having not foreseen this outcome, Dove's father blamed him for her death.

Planning to marry off his son as soon as possible, he && Dove had an altercation that turned violent. He blacked out after his father tried to stab him with a newly acquired antique sword, only to wake up to an unknown man skewering his father's heart with it.There are legends of objects gaining a soul after a century of existence, && the sword fit the bill nearly ten times over. Dove just got lucky enough that his Evol could give a being like that a new form.Smiling, the sword's second action after being brought into this world was to hold his tiny master's hand."I can't hurt you, y'know? This body was born because you cried out for protection, && I answered."

Blood-soaked hand in hand, Dove ran away with the newly named Crane to the one place where they could start anew; the N109 Zone.Things get lost even in the cleanest of cities, let alone a place like their new home. Objects, money, people; if you can tell them where it was before, they'll find && bring whatever you're looking for back.Within reason; && for a price.The two of them are on fairly good terms with most of the major players, including Onychinus. The pair remain staunchly unaffiliated however; they want something stable, if they're ever to settle down as someone else's underlings..
