Catch a star... *

Starcreep's picture


Recent Posts | Home | UPDATES



Not a deer, but a star that has fallen and taken the shape of one.
Recognized as male.
Not living, but very much alive and capable of death.
Young as stars go and a bit naive.
Untrusting of most, fears capture and avoids touch.
Still learning the habits and mannerisms of deer. Might not understand some body language.
Recently learned how to dance, but prefers to do so alone.
Likes children, but doesn't always understand them.
Hasn't yet grasped complex emotions.
You can't harm him... unless you catch him. Very few can keep up.
Runs. A lot.
Currently only shows physical affection towards one deer, an unnamed fawn.
May be seen around a creature known as Daruma.
He is friendly, but flighty. Don't expect him to sit for long.
When he is red, he has cooled for dormancy. Does not rest for long or very often. Vulnerable.
Often found high in trees. Likes elevated places.
Will chase and flee from deer in play. Flight is also done out of fear.
Visits the pond frequently.
May be considered vain, but he's a star and very aware of his beauty.
Sits in sunbeams.
Speaks with a strained, but gentle voice. See movie for more voice samples.
Has his own grade of wisdom.
Will likely outlive most deer in the forest; lifespan could be millions-billions of years.
Highly curious.
Sits still for longer periods if he feels safe.
Not fond of spells, but may cast them, anyway.
Does not eat.
Less inclined to run from approaching fawns.

I'm tracking this, he seems like a beautiful deer. ^^

Track! What a lovely pictogram.

Nameless: I do wonder what happened to those stars as well...

Stars can die. I hope that wasn't their fate. I hope it isn't my fate. I'm still so young...

This forest is endless, my friend. I hope you are as well.

Friend?

Friend?

He smiles. Yes, friend. You

He smiles. Yes, friend. You seem...good.
Do stars have friends?
Starcreep's picture

We have company. Stars like

We have company. Stars like to be with other stars, you know. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many together in the sky.

He grins and lets out a deep

He grins and lets out a deep laugh. I've never thought of it that way! But...do you stars have those that you can come to when you need help? Or just someone to stay by you?
He tilts his head.
Starcreep's picture

No, we do not. We have each

No, we do not. We have each other, but we are not very powerful. We cannot fight, but we can die. Have you ever seen a star die?
ocean's picture

He smiles wider. Well, I

He smiles wider. Well, I suppose you are the first star to have a friend then! If you will have me.
He sighs. I have not. It must be...terrible. His brown eyes study the other.

"It is." The Beast murmured

"It is." The Beast murmured from where he stood, not far off. In his endless antlers, small stars glinted, giggled, flickered and winked.

"They explode and while it looks, at a great distance, glorious...it is an unpleasant, unkind fate. They devour themselves out of fear." The fires of his eyes hissed and guttered in the rain, steam and smoke pouring out of his head.

"But there are worst ways to go." He surmised quietly, even as all those small stars shivered.

"Much worse."

I believe Ra met this Star tonight. Though he was a bit confused, he likes making new friends. He didn't mean to be a pest to the Star. <3

The nameless deer starts as he hears the voice behind him, turning and backing away from the great stag. How...very terrible.
The nameless turns to the other, starred stag.
...Is this true?

[...Pardon me for jumping in. D:]
Starcreep's picture

Of course it is true... but I

Of course it is true... but I am very young.

The nameless deer nods,

The nameless deer nods, tilting his head. Young indeed.
He shakes his head, clearing his thoughts. Well, welcome then, young one. I do hope you will accept my company if I should find you.
Bylah's picture

Lazily, his head inclined,

Lazily, his head inclined, fire-bright eyes briefly watching the star..before he turned, trotting off for his sunbeam.


"....You know, I warned you

"....You know, I warned you not to sit by Wesker when I roared at you, but it seems you werent paying attention...Hn, fare enough, you'll know next time."
Starcreep's picture

Why would you warn me? I'm

Why would you warn me? I'm too curious and flighty to be bothered. Deer in this forest can't harm me, they can't even catch me! When I was in the sky, I chased across the horizon every day.

"Hn...perhaps you and Bylah

"Hn...perhaps you and Bylah will get well along....that is when your time comes."


This looks like an interesting character desgin/biography , and now i shall take my nap since its 3 am here.

What... do you mean? Rest

What... do you mean?

Rest well.

""Do you know what the stars

""Do you know what the stars do, when they get old?""no?, then find out yourself what I meant by so."


last post as of today , and thank you.

Ama: "You're welcome to come

Ama: "You're welcome to come sit with us, starred-one. Even if you are a star. I'd love to hear some stories about what it's like out there..."

[...Hi again. |D Lovelovelove that picto still.]
Starcreep's picture

I never sit for long. I'm

I never sit for long. I'm extremely curious, but just as flighty. You want to know what the sky is like?
ocean's picture

Ama: "Oh, okay. I understand

Ama: "Oh, okay. I understand curious, if you'd come from a different place.
I would love to...
" She settles down, waiting.
Starcreep's picture

Oh, yes, very. Everything

Oh, yes, very. Everything used to be so very far away, you know.

The sky is vast and beautiful, just as you know it to be, but much more. It is very easy to take for granted, too. Without it, there would be no stars or clouds or birds to fill it with, would there? It seems even more grand from down here! My brothers and sisters are so small...
ocean's picture

"Oooh. Like the stars for

"Oooh. Like the stars for us.
That sounds so beautiful. Does the earth even compare...?
" She sighs, lowering her head, then looks up. "Do you miss them?"
Starcreep's picture

Why compare? Things are too

Why compare? Things are too different, unique to themselves, to compare. The earth, the sky, they're both wonderful, but I will always feel more welcome up there.

... yes. I do. Stars belong with stars, you know.
ocean's picture

"True. It's all beautiful.

"True. It's all beautiful. And don't we all feel more welcome in our own home?" She smiles, but it quickly fades.
"I'm sorry...I hope you get back up there someday." She looks up at the tiny pinpoints of light. How strange that one was in front of her.

"...and put it in your pocket."

Seems like a waste of something so beautiful.

They'll never catch

They'll never catch me.

Stars are meant to be seen!
Serenai's picture

A chuckle, and a true hope

A chuckle, and a true hope that this would forever be the case.

Few words had been spoken before more true than that stars are meant to be seen.

No, I don't think they will. Earnestly said, a nod.

A smile.

There is one... He carries

There is one...


He carries them, brothers and sisters, in grand horns that stretch high into the sky. Should I be caught, what would my life be?

"Oh, I do deeply apologize if

"Oh, I do deeply apologize if my curious behavior has brought you any offense, star...
But I hope you could understand I was running with you, not so much chasing.
Are you shy?
Beautiful things are often shy...






Starcreep's picture

I could tell you were running

I could tell you were running with me, and not seeking to capture me. I tried to beckon you to continue, but you didn't seem to understand and I'm sorry. Stars aren't accustomed to communicating with deer, you know.

I am... but also acutely curious.

"I thought, maybe the stars

"I thought, maybe the stars need comfort for I can never sit down to truly apologise to you for my fright when you flew above the pond."
Starcreep's picture

I don't need your apology,

I don't need your apology, you didn't offend me. How can you offend a star, anyway?

I'm sorry for not sitting still, it's not in my nature to do so, you see.

/tracking!
"I hope to someday see you within the forest! Perhaps it is time for this girl to go back to wishing upon the stars.."
Starcreep's picture

I hope your wishes find you,

I hope your wishes find you, then.
Serenai's picture

A frown, a rare occurrence.

A frown, a rare occurrence. Seeing the possibility. Like a caged bird: it still sings, but flies no more.

It is not my place to say.

I will say, though...
The smile returns. Had it really left? All shall go well whilst you shine.

Now,
it chided playfully. You said you don't take to staying still too long. You don't mind company in moving forward. I will join you, when the time calls for it.


It is very quiet. The absence of even that whispered voice and the billions of tones that lie beneath it was felt when it was quiet, but maybe that wasn't a surprise after all.

"Thank you, kind one. I do hope so also... I would never try to catch you though, I promise you this. Perhaps run with you, but never to catch"

What a morbidly fitting

What a morbidly fitting song.

I like to see others run with me! I don't tire like you do, though. I may stop and sit, but I will soon be moving again.

"So... that was not a dream.

"So... that was not a dream. Someone was sitting there..."

I may visit again, if you

I may visit again, if you wish. I travel great distances over the course of the day, perhaps I'll see you, again.

Perhaps you'll see me.

Beautiful, I'm tracking this.
