Gotta Love Life

"Racist or race of?"

Weird kid: well me and my dad are part of the race of shifters which means we change shape into whatever we see or remember. There are conditions to it but we'll talk about that later. But the other races are fairies, goblins, trolls, dragon heads, wild born, grass people, and those who live in the shadows of others. The people of the shadows are difficult to explain but what my dad told me they basically live off others like parasites without ordinary beings noticing." I felt a slight chill when he talked about the last one but that was probably because of it being windy during this time of the weather. "Hey by any chance can you somehow detect any nearby hostile races?" Weird kid: um not really besides seeing someone with a murdery face..." So this kid didn't have that ability either. I didn't know if I should be relived or more scared.  Weird kid: yo you ok?" (I wonder when that fairy is coming back or is she coming back. Was I too ignorant fuuuckkk.) I thought. " Yea. Yea I'm fine."  Weird kid: good cause I'm gonna need that green paper for the info provided. That'll be 20$." Well this point in time I realized how valuable info was around here but luckily I had my dad's wallet. "Here you go kid, now take that with you on your way out." *Hunter moans*  Weird kid: fine but your lucky I wanna get pay back at the guy for tackling me that day during a delivery." Welp that was one less guy to deal with that day but I still had a walking trash ball to deal with. "JEFFERY!!" Jeffery: Whaaatttt??!" "Is there any race out there that we should worry about specifically or..." Jeffery: Damn your really obsessed with this race thing now huh.  "Damn it Jeffrey I just need to know more about potential danger out there!"  Jeffery: well you humans who couldn't sense them seemed to live an nice enough life without knowing. Do you really wanna mess that up?"  (I mean he's not exactly lying, some people may have died horribly but it's not like it's a national news thing. But dying so abruptly can be a really scary thought. Hmm I just wanna know how we humans never really notice this shit sooner.) I felt lost at this point in time because as a new world opened up a lot of things in life began to make less sense because of it. I even started to wonder if I was even human or some unknown species.  Jeffery: Heeyyy, human are you okayyy??" I began to slowly snap out of it still making a face of concern. "Yea Jeffrey, I just need something to eat." I walked into the kitchen and leaned on the table starring at the cabinets in front of me. Jeffery: you know food doesn't make itself even if you stare in it's direction, trust me I tried."  (Of course he has) I thought. (Damn maybe I should've talked to that girl more... maybe I'll visit her again.) " Jeffery forget the food, I gotta go somewhere real quick. I'll be back in a little while, ok?" Jeffery: what am I , the house pet? Just leave already." (Heh now the little snot rag is kicking me out my house. I really must be fucking crazy.) Well moments later I soon arrived at the house of perfume scents and pop music playing, I was thinking to myself how akward a talk this was going to be but I kept on walking up to her door anyway. With a few deep breaths I gave a few knocks on the door and waited. And waited. And waited. And by then once I realized 3 seconds had passed I started to turn away but just before I could leave I heard the door creep open.  Cute girl: uh hello?" I wasn't exactly the smoothest during this time so my mindset was to try to break the ice. " Hey uh, so yea glad you didn't get molested....I mean touched unwillfully... Uh safe." I don't like looking back at moments like these.  Cute girl: yeaaa, me too. Um what exactly was that thing that um punched you all in the uh dick..." I thought to myself several different ways on how I was going to explain what exactly he is and what we're dealing with. "You see that thing as you probably can tell wasn't exactly human but um a dick punching shape shifter that does this for fun who is also the dad of that kid that crawled through your window trying to deliver your food who is technically also a shape shifter." To be honest this sounded a lot better in my head. Cute girl: ..... uh-huh. Yeaaa, that totally makes sense when you put that together with uh that." "Hey keep in mind you did see that little green goblin that was with me that day." I may sound crazy but if you saw even a glimpse of the things I've seen than by default we're crazy together. " I mean I know this might be a lot to take in but this was a lot for me to think about too especially since there are other kinds different races with unique abilities like them and I just dont-" Cute girl: I never said I didn't believe you, I kind of heard rumors about such creatures all my life I guess I just never payed it much attention. At least up until recently."
I felt relived that I could talk to another person not just about this stuff but in general. " Great it's such a relief to know you don't think I'm crazy." Cute girl: I mean I didn't say that.."  And just like the stock market crash all my joy went from high to unbelievably low. "Well whatever, can I come in?"
