Nine is alive.. and with new health.

Say hello..
Name; "Nine"
Age; young adult*
Gender; male
Sexuality; panromantic asexual

Species; deer of the TEF variety
Height; ~3' at shoulders
Weight; ~102 lbs.

Speaks; red subtext
Voice; Mei; Arashi No Yoru Ni *

Possessions; snow globe; a special gift from someone dear to him, massive troupe of rats, beast helm, skull 'mask'..

Created; Sept. 1st, 2009 (9-1-09), awoke in the forest as an adult
Birth; date unregistered
*Nine will not disclose his age to anyone.



Don't be shy..
Stability; One of Nine's few great fears is sudden, drastic changes in his lifestyle. He thrives on routine, unless he initiates change on his own.

Security; Another of his few and far between fears is loss, which is connected to his fear of change. This is expressed in his tendencies of possessiveness and habit of sitting as close as possible to someone- even if that means on or under them.

Safety; Nine fears very little. Though brave, he is not a fool; he knows he is small and in that, vulnerable. He backs himself with friends of strength and loyalty.

Idleness; Between bursts of exuberance, Nine sleeps. He easily sleeps a day away without stirring.

Purity; Nine has the heart of a newborn babe and the gentleness of a saint, when his behavior isn't corrupted by selfishness, greed, or petty jealousy.

Childlike; Though an adult, he tends to have an air of someone far younger, often feigning ignorance. He has a 'bubbliness' to his behavior.

Stubborn; His stubbornness is usually isolated to himself and his admittance to an err he may have made. He has trouble allowing himself to face up and fess up. He has never cried.


You're not alone..
Bylah; A powerful figure in Nine's life and possibly the one that has made the most impact on him as an individual. Since their meeting, Nine has matured greatly but has also grown to depend heavily on Bylah's presence. When in his company, Nine shows defensive and territorial behavior towards strangers who he feels may come too near for his or Bylah's comfort. Nine holds the highest respect and vast endearment for this entity and considers him and all that he is, 'home'. It is not unusual to see the boy sitting alone in Bylah's otherwise vacant sunbeam. The king's absence has had a crippling effect on him emotionally and psychologically, but the experience leaves him farther room to grow.

As to the deeper aspects of their relationship, Bylah and Nine are difficult to describe. Some things, though, are best left undefined.



Dhudhwa; In par with Bylah, Nine simply adores Dhuddy. He is a very vital aspect to the boy's life and fills the crucial gap that Bylah simply cannot. There is a deep and powerful mutual bond between them and though their shared love for each other is unsurpassed, it is unique to most other relationships in that it manages to remain strictly platonic. After they met and rapidly became close and reliant on each other, Nine struggled to keep a stable balance between Bylah and Dhudhwa in his heart and on occasion, he still does. He couldn't live with himself if he were to truly lose either of them, for they are as much a part of themselves as they are a part of him. Quite simply, they have his heart.




A gruesome facade..
.. for such a charming face beneath. Why do you hide?


The Helmet; Nine's most cherished and sacred possession, it came to the forest with him and has always been with him, save for the few instances that he may have dropped it. The helm's design appears to be some sort of nonexistent monster, a row of jagged, pointed teeth along its ridge, fierce eye sockets, and spiked horns jutting from the back and sides.

Its significance at a glance may be unclear, and it's easy for one to assume that it's a means of intimidation, or even protection, but for its owner it is a powerful and very personal tool.

Nine finds a great amount of comfort, confidence, and security in wearing his helmet. With it, he has a fuller sense of self and is more stable, emotionally. When it's removed from his person, Nine may seem more humble, vulnerable, and aware of eyes and ears that may be on him. In short, it is his security blanket and also a part of his psyche. It's virtually impossible for him to be healthy if it is removed permanently or terminated.

He tends to take the helmet off more when he feels comfortable and safe in someone's company, usually that of Bylah or Nine, or if his head needs a good tree-rubbing. Unfortunately, while wearing it, he has an obvious blind spot and does a good amount of sniffing if you meet him up front. He often stands at the side of someone and leans on them or circles them or their legs* and is less inclined to give frontal attention unless he's nuzzling or sniffing. Don't be offended if he turns at an angle to look at you.


(This information may be likely to change over time. Most of if was written on the spot.)
*This is also a show of affection, like a cat rubbing, especially if done repeatedly.

*nods again and inhales* Mh.. I'll be fine. No worries..~ *smiles a little and hugs tight before finally heading to Bylah's sunbeam*

Nope. I like them, though I'm wary of big birds. The peacock at the zoo was eyeing me funny once. I kept a respectul distance. They're funny to watch.

Ah, peafowl aren't the

Ah, peafowl aren't the tamest of things.. I've grown very fond of chickens and other domestics. I think I enjoy them more than exotic birds.. they're tame and useful at the same time.. :'3

Geese are lovely if they're imprinted on humans and raised properly. c:
No rodents?! I couldn't live without my rats or my rabbit.. I adore them even more than our dogs.. (lots of animals, here) and they're so much easier to care for..

They were all over the place

They were all over the place in Pennsylvania. I do remember witnessing a funny encounter. They were feeding on the grass in this parking lot ( don't ask me why they chose a parkinbg lot of all places) and a little boy ran up to touch one and it hissed and flapped it's wings. No rodents. And she thought rabbits stunk, same with ferrets.

I fell in love with a pygmy goat at the zoo. Named him Petri.

*whines* But Niiiine..

Pfft, he'd just look adorable. But that's okay, because Dhuddy fails at smiling.

Kaoori- No worries~ if you

Kaoori- No worries~ if you two don't mind, he's taking a break for himself. c': He'll visit again if/when he feels better.

ff Nine.. i hate asking for things, but.. maybe I could do a trade? I would love to get some fan art for Scythe.. I know you've done some for her already.. but if you ever get a chance, would you maybe draw Kaoori and Wesker? I just.. really love your art. ._.;
I would love to draw Nine, he's just not going to be as awesome as in your art.

Where else would he aim? 8D

Mine's full of dog hair. >/

Nine put down the-NOOOO! por que?!
Our rottweiler's been gone for two years and I still find his dog hair in the carpet. He used to leave a cloud of black hair.
It's fine, I have two.

*raises brow skeptically* "Uh-huh."*places chaste kiss on forehead and gruffly mumbles* Stop apologizing. You're never a bother. You know that.."

Fahah, I think.. I think if

Fahah, I think.. I think if he DID murder anyone, it would be with a bunt weapon. I'm thinking golf club. Not that.. he would.. do that... right? >>;
Gff, animal hair is impossible.
YEAH BUT. You need them. D:

Yea, those deshedders are a lie. Don't do diddly to cut back on shedding. It just never stops coming.
I can still breathe with just the one.

*shrugs* "Not for me you aren't. Only person who thinks you're a bother is you."*can't fit fat but under rock*

Nine wouldn't hurt a fly

Nine wouldn't hurt a fly unless he was misguided to. XD Saaayy maybe for.. feeding Yosef or his rats or something.. what does he feed those things, I wonder.. hopefully not little birds.
But.. that's one less? :c

I don't think so.. I mean, Bylah and Wesker get annoyed with me sometimes, I dunno. *snickers and scoots back up against, cozy and lazy as ever*

Dhud's got a hidden temper

Dhud's got a hidden temper in there, he gets it from his mother. It doesn't come out often, he'd rather not expend the energy.
And he's rather Nine not see it.
We'll just move this bird over here. *tucks bird in Dhuddy's hair*
They can rebuild me, they have the technology.

*grunts lazily*"That's their problem. If you were a bother, I wouldn't put up with you. Much."*throws arm around Nine's middle*

------------------------------------

Bah, I got class. I'll be back on in about two hours. Alas, my love, I must be away. *dramatic stage exit*.

Nine gets hurt or stressed

Nine gets hurt or stressed before he gets angry.. and when he does, it usually fades quickly.
I don't think Nine would like to see Dhud's anger, either. |D Genuine anger frightens him, fah.
*tucks rats away, also* > >

I dunno, some of the doctors these days are questionable.. what if you came out of the room with a ham in your chest instead of a lung?

*chuckles* Alright, alright, I'll believe you~ &hearts *tucks his knees up* Hm.. Dhuddy.. ?

Alright. :OO Take care!

It's a part of him he

It's a part of him he doesn't like, mostly because it reminds him he has similarities to her.
All the more reason to keep it hidden from Nine. Can't have his little Nugget wary of him.
I don't go to the doctor's. I really should since I've been having all sorts of odd symptoms but I think they are the core of evil. Last time I got my blood drawn they stuck me 3 times before getting any blood. I shall eat the ham.

*sits up looking around blearily* Wha?...

(I really.. really like this

(I really.. really like this set LOL)
Oh, I'm sure. :c
I wonder if he keeps a diary..

Irk. Maybe they just had bad aim? :c
HONEYGLAZEDSPIRALHAM. In your ribcage.

Dhud? Probably drunken hazy

Dhud? Probably drunken hazy ramblings.
You're still sneaky by the way. I never know you're there until I check in on Dhuddy.

Well the last guy was smart enough to realize they didn't have to keep trying the crook of my elbow, put it in my forearm. At least he didn't wriggle the needle around like the other guy.

Is it smoked?
*stares cross-eyed at offending finger* ...Good. Don't know how else to explain it. I feel..good. Funny.*smiles imperceptibly*

(Although he's a bit peeved at the strange deer trying to glow with him. He doesn't just glow wit anyone you know?)

Heheheh. x) I imagine if

Heheheh. x)
I imagine if Nine kept one, it'd be full of silly doodles. :c Because that's that I'd do, lol.
I'm not sneaky! You're just.. unobservant. <3
dfsjndf I'd.. I'd probably die.. if anyone wriggled a needle around in my arm.. *shudder*

But of course!

*smiles even wider and falls on him lazily, hugging his neck* Mn, funny? I'm glad you feel nice.. &hearts
Uhn.. can I ask why you're so fond of birds~? *cheerful wiggle*


(Oh, the beluga one? Or was there another while I was gone? Shocked)

Silly doodles of rats? I

Silly doodles of rats?
I check to see if you're around and I swear, one minute you're not on then poof! Like a witchdoctor!
I fed him my patented death glare the entire time. Foolish mortal.

*offers slice of lung-ham*

*pulls Nine tighter to his body* Yeah, funny. There's usually always..something, some kind of neverending pressure, a weight. Not now though...Not with you. * smiles sadly at the memory* The birds? They were just the first thing I could latch on to, form a tangible bond with. Well, the first sane thing I could bond with... I couldn't trust my dam to always be a mother...a real one. I could trust the birds, to always be birds. Didn't understand what they were saying, but I would imagine they were whispered sentiments. It was more about symbiosis then love..they picked the parasites, I got a little company... pretend I was normal for a few moments. *falls silent* "What about you and your little rodent friends?"

(Yes. It made him feel dirty, glowing with a stranger. -_-)

Silly doodles of..

Silly doodles of.. silliness. c':
You're not the first to say that, but I don't see how I'm so sneaky~

*snarfsnarfdevour*

*makes a small sound and hugs close* Oh.. ? I wonder why.. hmm.. *blinks and ponders a moment before listening intently and solemnly* I see.. I won't pry any farther if it would bother you, unless.. -

Oh, my rats? They started as a fascination, I guess.. years ago.. *taps his chin thoughtfully* and then grew into a hobby- caring for them, that is. And now.. I'm afraid to say it's an obsession, but I'm sure some may agree.. *cups one from his shoulder and stares at a moment before setting it on the ground to scurry elsewhere* They're more my companions than property- small, numerous.. short-lived friends..

*inhales and frowns* Hmm.. I'm sorry, I don't mean to go on, like that. *scratches his head with mild embarrassment*

(Feel so used. Glowing is a very personal thing, I only let it happen with Nine.)

*jingle~!* Ohhh, how I love

*jingle~!* Ohhh, how I love bells!
dk sdfds reading the wheeze made me laugh out loud, ohgod.

*hugs close* I guess so.. *nuzzles into Dhuddy's shoulder and settles as he's petted, oozing with lethargy* Hnn.. *mumbles* I wish I could keep you in my pocket..
