Jericho perched on a rooftop, looking out across the night sky. Wistful almost seemed to be his expression, but even if you told him that's what he looked like, he wouldn't be able to tell you why or realize that was the case at all. He was just... lost in thought he supposed. Considering himself. Where he was. What he was.[break][break]
A feeling like he didn't belong crept under his feathers like a night breeze. Jericho couldn't really recognize the constellations, and in a city for those who dwelt among the sky, he felt so hopelessly stuck on the ground. Unable to get up high enough to look around him, and try to figure out where he could ever be. Not literally... he was in the outskirts of the town atop one of the last few buildings before the road snaked out into the darkness. But metaphorically?[break][break]
Well, the archen might as well have been a ship adrift on the ocean. [break][break]
...[break][break]
......[break][break]
The archen yawned, and it occurred to Jericho his eyes were drooping. It was pretty late, and he was tired... he still hadn't really found a place to settle himself down or make any money yet though. A few Pokémon here and there had offered him a place to stay the first couple days he had been here, but he was beginning to feel uneasy about asking. It felt like begging. Being a drifter. He couldn't say why, but it bothered his sensibilities, to feel like he wasn't contributing and just preying on other's kindness. But what could he even offer in exchange?[break][break]
Jericho didn't have any skills he could remember. He certainly wouldn't claim he could fight, and even simple jobs like manual labor was hard with his small frame and awkward wing-arms. Delivery was out of the question as well, he hadn't the faintest idea how to fly and was terrified of falling - an unfortunate trait to have among so many avians. No... the most he could do for now was try to find the time and place to train, and maybe prove himself enough to manage to get picked up for some exploration team so he could get experience under his belt and be useful fetching items from the dungeons.[break][break]
Though even that idea made him anxious. They were dangerous, and deep inside, Jericho wasn't even sure it's what he wanted, and not just that it was the best seeming answer and the one he was forcing himself to decide upon so he'd have a goal in mind. He didn't have the faintest idea how to go about it either. But it's not like he knew anyone here, so that would be true of anything wouldn't it? He was just...[break][break]
A stranger.[break][break]
Sitting up here all by himself looking at the stars.

[attr="class","abelpost"] [attr="class","abeltag"]Dear Jericho, In the hours when most folk lay in bed, Abel was awake. Naturally, considering his typing and species, though he liked to think personal preference also played a hand in his routine. The bank was adjusted to accommodate, opening closer to midday than most shops, but staying open until well past sunset. This arrangement allowed him to rest and address his customers’ concerns without offending his nocturnal instincts. It also meant that when someone who should not be around town in these hours was present, Abel could clock them with ease. There was a moment of debate when he spotted the small figure perched on the rooftop— red eyes flicking from the bundle of puff and the darkness encroaching the border as if assessing whether to pull a hatchling from a krookodile’s maw. The winds shifted as he tilted his body, making his descent clear with a gust of midnight air and the sound of large flapping wings. “Excuse me,” he said as he flew down— a habit to minimize alarm during landing, and for courtesy. He ensured the roof was durable enough before closing his wings and standing. The old wood creaked under his weight. “Just resting my wings, I hope you don’t mind sharing for a little while.”The honchkrow smiled, tilting his head. “Though I wouldn’t be offended if you did. This is quite the stargazing spot.” He made no move to approach, and any stirrings were kept clear and close to his body. It had been a while since he last encountered an archen but if memory and the stereotype of the archeops line serves, then he’d best take care not to seem too imposing, lest he send this stranger scurrying into the shadows. To spare them from his eye contact, he drew his attention back to the view sprawled before the perch. Twinkling stars dotted the heavens, free of clouds, fliers, and any of the day-to-day commotion expected from a town of sky dwellers. “But are you certain you want to be close to the border at this hour?”

Jericho jumped slightly at the sound of wings flapping, his long neck twisting around to jerkily look up towards it as dark eyes quickly scanned the sky until they locked onto a massive ebony feathered bird. Flinching slightly, he hunched into himself slightly, pulling his wings tight and close to his body and flicking his tail to wrap around and rest atop his talons. Even as the other flying type landed, it was clear they were a hulking giant of a bird compared to him, and fight or flight almost instinctively tried to kick in.[break][break]
They spoke a greeting though, and within the edge of town. Jericho was the odder one really, sitting out here in the late evening hour watching. So he bade himself to stay still and quiet his beating heart, head cocking ever so slightly at the creaking wood of the building. "U-uh... no I don't..." He muttered in response.[break][break]
It sounded half-hearted at best. Almost more like Jericho himself wasn't even sure if he minded, but wasn't really sure saying he did was really an option. [break][break]
The other bird, massive and hulking with a puffed out breast with a broad brimmed hat and these piercing red eyes, seemed to tilt their head and smile, but their gaze was more on the view then Jericho. Fair enough - it gave the archen excuse enough to stare at him in continued unease, his shoulders hunched high and his head snaked a bit low, as though huddling into himself. [break][break]
At the last question though, Jericho's gaze did slide away for a moment, briefly. Then back. His answer was slow and hesitant, in a quiet voice somewhere between tired and nervous. ".... others l-live near the edge of town. It's n-not any more dangerous to be awake then asleep this far... safer even perhaps."[break][break]
Another pause, awkwardly filling the space. "... nor d-do I really have anywhere else t-to be..." It was the truth, so Jericho supposed there was no point trying to dance around the answer. Especially if this other Pokémon actually lived in town - while he doubted there was much reason to have gossip floating, it also wouldn't be hard to realize he was a complete stranger.

[attr="class","abelpost"] [attr="class","abeltag"]Dear Jericho, Abel stifled a chuckle. His hunch seemed correct. Despite the archen’s muttered words, every other part of them made it abundantly clear how much they minded his presence. He was considerate enough to feel guilty for it; the poor thing had only been minding their own business, at peace with solitude before he had barged in. Alas, his concern for the stranger outweighed such guilt. (And his amusement, doubly so. They were after all such a small, twitchy thing— simply landing had made them fold themselves even smaller. If he had drawn close, perhaps they could have folded enough to fit perfectly in his claw.) He wasn’t even looking at them now, but their concern dripped through every stuttered word out of their beak. He could imagine their shifting eyes. Abel made a noise, surprised and impressed. “That’s not an opinion I hear everyday, but you are not wrong. Being in the center of town in broad daylight can be just as dangerous as being in the outskirts at night, depending on who you are.”Or rather, depending on who you are with, but there was also a possibility… Abel stayed silent, still looking off to the stars. He did not mind the pause. He knew this stranger needed time to pick their words, though his smile dropped as those words sank in. Nowhere else to be. No one waiting for them. And though he instigated, it didn’t comfort Abel, the fact this stranger was willing to offer such information to him despite their unfamiliarity and discomfort. It made him want to usher them into town. “You are here, are you not?” He said gently. “For that, I am grateful. These evenings can get lonely, and you are certainly welcome company.”He turned to them again, bearing a smile. “But I am being rude not introducing myself to such company.” He slowly bowed his head, as if tipping the hat crowning it. He was still avoiding making large, abrupt movements. “Call me Abel. I run the bank in town. Perhaps you have seen my stall, though I don't believe we have properly met.”

That... wasn't quite how Jericho had meant it.
The archen blinked for a moment as he pondered over the Honchkrow's words. He had only figured that well... living in these houses by the outskirts was just as dangerous as looking out over the border. More so, considering they were likely asleep right now, if anything were to happen, Jericho could just run away from it. That wasn't what the other Pokémon was talking about at all though. [break][break]
Honestly, it felt worrying trying to think through the implications. Could bad things really happen to someone even in the middle of town where everyone could see? That felt like it should have been the safest time and place... [break][break]
Swallowing slightly he looked over out of the corner of his eye as he slowly let his head turn to outside the town again, ruffling his feathers slightly - as though fluffing them to warm himself. "... a-anywhere can be dangerous I suppose" He'd admit quietly. After all, it's not like just because they all lived in the same town, any of the Pokémon here were allies. Sure, laws existed, but... some Pokémon broke those laws as well, from dungeons or not. Always had to be cautious...[break][break]
If the other Pokémon wanted to do something though, they probably would have already Jericho reasoned. Not just sat here patiently waiting for him to stammer out a response. It didn't put him completely at ease, but it was a thought that at least stopped him from feeling quite as much like staring at those talons encrusted with rings and jewelry, just in case they decided to reach out for him.[break][break]
A gloomy and uncertain look passed over Jericho's expression for a moment at the other bird's gentle statement, and doubtfully, he twitched his feathered tail-tip. "N-nowh-wh-where else to be..." he rebutted, almost as though trying to deflect the reassurance. "But if you s-say you have no other company then..." He wasn't sure how to finish that sentence, or where he was going. He'd already said it was fine anyways. Saying he didn't want them to feel alone felt weird and insincere; not that he did, but just that such words couldn't really have any weight to them. Not when they were strangers.[break][break]
They turned to finally look at Jericho again, his own talons reflexively digging in just a little bit under the other bird's attention and gaze. At the tip of their head though, he paused a bit awkwardly, then bobbed his own head, mimicking the gesture but with far less grace. "I... I h-have seen it once in passing. U-uhm... we haven't though... J-jericho. You can call me J-jericho. It's nice to m-meet you... Abel. I... d-don't do much of note." Nothing to be remembered for right now anyways. There wasn't even a proper guild, he was just told it's something some Pokémon do.[break][break]
Jericho didn't have a team, or supplies yet. It was more just saying he did it than anything else.
