Today he was male. At least, at the current moment. He had found himself wandering around the academy after getting free from the adoption area. He had found a roll of thread and immediately grabbed it, holding it to his chest as it disappeared. He felt... different. But his toddler brain couldn't really explain it. It was just different.
During his wandering he came across a room with lots of screens. All of these screens showed one scene, all from different angles. It was a room, with two beds, and three people inside. Two of them were older, one was pale, the other was dark. The third one was just sleeping in one of the beds, that one was considerably smaller.
He watched the screens for hours. Something about the small one was intriguing. Eventually he left the room in favor of finding the one that all the cameras were watching. It didn't take him long, despite the fact that the camera in the hallway was hidden, it wasn't hidden enough for him to not notice it during his search.
He stood in front of the door, staring. It was one thing to find the place, but it was another to actually know what to do once he found it. He remained there for a few minutes before standing up on his tip toes and grasped at the door handle. he twisted it and pushed forward, opening the door without too much trouble. Just his luck, the big ones were both asleep. He stepped inside and closed the door, dark gray eyes scanning the room for signs of the small one.

The boy in question, Evangelos, seemed to be taking a nap on the blanket he had previously ripped up in order to make his apparent brother the awkward little hat a few hours prior. He was still clad in the clothing that the academy had given him, his brother-who-was-currently-taking-the-position-of-caretaker didn't seem to know too much about childcare so he just stayed in his usual clothes until they smelled. Aside from that he looked fine, until his stomach growled.
Shifting a little, the grey boy awoke and sleepily sat up, rubbing his eyes and looking down at his stomach.

The growling noise was something he was not familiar with, since as of yet he hadn't experienced that level of hunger. Seeing the little boy wake up though, made him slowly shuffle over. He moved silently, even when he was actually on the ground. He stared at the boy, wordlessly. What was there to say? Not much. He couldn't explain his fascination, even if he wanted to.

The hair on his arms were standing on edge as he felt someone staring at him, an odd feeling seeing as he looked like your average human kid, aside from his hair, that and he had figured everyone else was asleep. Slowly looking up, he locked eyes with the ghost, his own going wide in a mix of confusion, fear, and curiosity.

That look... he felt a wide grin spread over his face involuntarily, flashing the many sharp little teeth sitting inside. Other than his alarmingly pale skin and virtual weightlessness, he appeared to be human. That is, until someone noticed the tiny pointed ears that were hidden in his hair, which looked oddly feminine to belong to a boy.
He boy wasn't talking, so he supposed he would have to say something first. "w---hy does y--our st--omach make no--oises?" The words are butchered by his speech problem. He can't really control it, it just happens. It's like his voice gives out mid word and he has to breathe in again to continue on with it.

Still rather creeped out by the other, Evangelos continued to stare as he thought of an answer. "I's hungry.." He says quietly before standing, moving to the bed where the paler of the two older Metas was sleeping, taking a moment to look at him before making his way over to the door. Having noticed that his brother was still rather tired, he didn't want to wake him, so he figured he'd try going to the kitchen on his own, if he could.
"Wanna come wit'?" The boy asked the other, his mind unable to place if they were a boy or a girl.

He watched silently as the boy moved around the room, only moving so much as to reposition himself so that he could watch easier. He accepted the explanation of being hungry without a second thought. The boy could have told him something ridiculous and he probably would have believed it, it wasn't like he had a lot of experience in the world.
He was distracted from introspection at the question. "Y--es." He shuffled after the other boy, blinking slowly. "W---at is y-our na--ame?" He opted to shut the door behind them, just in case one of the two sleeping inside woke up.

Smiling just slightly, though still creeped out by how quiet the other was, even when it spoke, it sent a chill down his spine, but the others presence seemed to soothe the strange things he couldn't seem to control. "I's Evangelos." He said softly once they were a little ways away from the dorm, glancing back to where the other was before asking "You?"

"A--very." He responded simply. He wandered down the hallway, not at all sure of where he was going. He had not passed the kitchen on the way to the room they had all been in. "Wh--ere is the kit---... kit--chen?" Avery tilted his head in a mildly curious sort of way. All the while his eyes were completely focused on Evan, watching his every move.

Evangelos couldn't help but shiver as the other stared at him, even if he wasn't truly aware that Avery was staring at him, almost like he was staring into his soul. The shiver was visible, but he seemed to ignore it, "Leetle furder." The gray boy stated as he continued to walk, stopping when he reached the currently closed door. Frowning, he pushed against it, "Ooopen!"

Avery blinked a few times, noticing the shiver though he didn't recognize that it was because of his staring. Actually he thought the staring was normal, since Evan was so... oddly fascinating. He stopped a few paces behind Evan, once more watching as he pushed at the door. It took him a moment to realize that perhaps he should help.
When he did he stepped forward and placed his palms against the door, and leaned on it. "It's lo--cked?" He wasn't sure, but the door sure was stubborn. "N--eed bi--gger p--pers--on." He removed his hands from the door. "Wh--at you th--ink?"

Frowning, he shook his head before pushing on the door a little harder, though it finally hit him. The door was a pull door, not a push one! Making an adorable face, he reached up to grab the handle of the door and pulled.

"O---h..." Avery blinked a few times before stepping inside and then holding the door open for Evan to make it in as well. He looked around the room, eyes stopping for a few seconds on anything he found particularly interesting, or terrifying. The wall with the knives on it gave him bad feelings, very bad feelings.
"Is th--is the kit--chen?" He asked quietly, eyes still focused on the knives.

The demon boy nodded, quickly toddling in and looking for the nearest fridge, having not noticed that Avery had stopped and focused on the knives. Pulling the fridge open, he shuffled through it to find something that looked delicious - which just so happened to be the lunch meats and cheeses drawer. Pulling on the see-through drawer, making it come crashing to the floor with a loud clatter, he grinned and plopped down next to it before rummaging through the plastic baggies.

Avery's attention was taken from the knives as the drawer from the fridge crashed to the floor. He shuffled over, and inspected the contents. "Ch--eese?" He picked up one of the baggies with sliced cheese in it. "Tas--ty." Avery decided he would eat some cheese since it was there. "Wh--at you go--ing to e--at?"
