It was the fateful evening cupid had lined up behind George for him to begin the try outs. Cupid decided to go for some basic maneuvers to get into the team as he was already tall enough as a freshman and it worked. Afterwords cupid and George decided to part ways and cupid arrived home not sure what to do at the time cupid decided to just ride his bike around the town for hours still just processing the events of what went down. Cupid decided to just bike around the city. When he saw some people lined up around a garden type of area with even benches and overhangs around them. Cupid saw that the dudes in there early 20s were accepting cash to pay for the stuff and decided to buy some of it."Hey how much is it for one of these. "Said cupid "Its twenty dollars "Said the man with a strange look in his eyes looking like he was in his early twenties with a black hat on and a twisted smile on his face. So, cupid bought one of them.

Cupid put it in his denim jacket back pocket for the time being as he still wanted to drive around the city more and see all the lights come on and decorations people would have hanged up of their own cultures. After driving around for a bit cupid put the tab like substance upon his tongue and swallowed it as it slowly dissolved inside of his mouth his lips twisting as it was slightly sour yet slightly sweet. He then decided to go back to driving around and see what else he could see within the city. He eventually started to notice the effects within his mind as peoples own energies had started to change along with the color and voice of people. People almost seemed non-human like some people taking different shapes some of sins of humanity like green gluttony or lust. Or some seeming like lizards not even real people to begin with like suits in business suits that would just stare at him as he drove past. He didn't even notice when a car nearly hit him as he was going across the street, cause all he could look at was this almost fairy like being just on her knees looking like she was praying to a tree everything seemed to just seem off entirely. Yet it didn't bother cupid cause while it was off looking it also seemed more real or more descriptive of the reality, he was seeing in a sense completely unhinged. Maybe this is what he was missing this was what he really wishes he was seeing he wasn't sure, but he decided to just continue driving and not worry about how he was hearing voices, yet he had headphones on like the voices were talking through him almost.

He eventually arrived at the top of the previous building that he had been the day before. What startled cupid was the fact he saw Lucas there someone he didn't expect to see at all. "Hey Lucas, what are you doing here? "Said cupid as he saw Lucas turn around and what looked like a horn had appeared on his head grown out of his body. "Hey cupid this is where I come a lot of times, I see you had the red eyes you must've took an ult tab huh. "Said Lucas."Ult tab what are those? is that what I took it's not good for me is it."Said cupid. "It's not that it's not good for you it's that its weird it fucks up your brain waves or something I heard just be careful I heard for some people it can end up being addictive. "Said Lucas alright I'll be sure to remember what you said I won't forget. Hey, you said you were from California right what was that like? "Said cupid "Well honestly it was a shit hole the side of California I was on was just full of homeless people and it smelled like piss a lot of people say how special it is with Holly weird being there but honestly I don't think it's any good at all. "Said Lucas "damn i was expecting a major city to be something better than that though but I guess not "Said cupid "What about you where are you from? "Said Lucas with intrigue you could hear in his voice. "Honestly I'm not even sure I don't want to think about the past at all my upbringings wasn't the best and thinking about those years will honestly make everything worse I feel like for me mentally and besides I don't even know if the place I grew up in even had a name it was that shitty"Said cupid eventually they just talked all night long or it felt like but it was only a couple hours.They both watched as it felt like the stars had transformed into actual constellations or that's what it seemed like at the time both oblivious to the way of the world can be just relying upon their instincts as kids to do what they want to do especially in a large city like new York.
