Chaos is known as the being that never became a star. It is everywhere and yet nowhere at the same time.
Neither good nor evil, the ultimate expression of nothingness. The antithesis of the cosmos, creation itself.
Although Chaos claims to be the very state of existence from which the first entities appeared, it cannot form into the entity it wants most.
So it has been cursed to stay in the form of a dark and shapeless void. Floating between existence and nonexistence.
Longingly watching as stars are constantly born and lives are lived. The seeds of malice had been planted, flourished and transformed Chaos into the purest form of evil.
"ORDER UP!" He called out pulling the recently made coffee swinging it to the customer who just paid. Once the coffee left his hands, he immediantly began working on cleaning the counters and prep for his break. After finishing cleaning the coutners, he grabbed his hot chocolate and cellphone went to go mingling with the customers.
Overall the cafe was empty most customers getting their coffees and fleeing, the few that stayed only did so for the free wifi offered out. Waving to customers that looked familiar, who just happened to look up. He made his way to the redhead sitting in his own brought in chair with laptop wide open. Signus with his white choppy hair leaned over the male nosing through exactly what he was working on. He wasn't really big on computers, but considering how much this customer knew he had a tendency to nose into the male's business... Especially when there was no texts or anything fun going on his cellphone. "Hey Oscar, what's today Project?" He asked with slight smile that made him look more innocent than most should believe.
His morning coffee was one of the only time he enjoyed leaving the apartment and conversing with others, this was simply due he got to relax in a nice atmosphere that he could sit back and have a cup of java. Liquid gold some called it and especially within the past week this hour or so out of his morning truly made him believe that. That's when Signus came over, the two got along for in a sense that they'd have small talk when he was at the cafe but Oscar never knew too much about him nor did he share to much information about himself. “Not too much, just got a few jobs to complete. Wont take too long.”
The aroma of the shop was pleasant, he took another sip of coffee and smiled, “How about you Signus, anything interesting going on today?”

Nothing too major, he looked at the computer not really understanding any of it... Neat the guy was just almost done, probably means he'd be leaving here the next thirty minutes or an hour, Signus was definitly not going to put a number on it. "Okay then! I won't be in your hair that long." He answered taking a small seat pulling out his phone texting some random person in a small bored poke. The guy on other end probably working or something, for some reason.. This just brought a small snickering joy to him.
About couple words later, the redhead asked about how Signus was doing. Signus looked up from his phone a small grin passing by, "Newest part-timer managed to make the coffee maker leak and get all over her." There was a small laugh in his voice at the image. "Luckily she wasn't too hurt, it seemed she forgot to even turn it on and warm the water. Other than that, pretty normal day, maybe little more customers with the growing cold." He gave a small shrug hands out, like yep normal day. Lots of customers, few customers, and just everything inbetween. He gave a small huff, before holding out a business card out of boredom. "Ever heard of this guy?" The business card talked about a prosecutor named Julius Vesper, it had fax and mobile number on there.
Oscar laughed at the misfortune of the part-time manager, it was good she didn't get hurt but you'd think someone working as a manager in a coffee shop wouldn't make such a silly mistake. Signus seemed he wanted something, Oscar just had this feeling and was correct when he whipped a business card out. He didn't really notice it at first but upon proper inspection it had Julius name on it.
He wondered why Signus would have his business card, he didn't seem like the type of need legal help. Perhaps he was involved in something he shouldn't of been? Oscar didn't know, Signus seemed like just a talkative guy, now on second thought...Signus did seem like the type to get in trouble, not because he was a bad person but just from how talkative he was.
“Yeah...Actually, I do. He lives in the same apartment complex as me. You in trouble?”

He showed the card, thinking of just how exactly he came by it. The whole day with the coffee spill, the bathroom, and overal... how much he hated Mr. Robot. When Oscar answered that the guy lived in the same apartment complex, Signus practically gave him a shocked star some of his white hair landing n his face before he over reacted. "HE WHAT! Lives! Near you!?" Exclamation coming out too loud catching a couple of costumers attention, who if they were working on homework gave him a ahrsh stare.
Quickly he slipped into the chair enxt to Oscar's leaning on the table dramatically reaching out toward the computer keyboard, "He lives in the same area? You know where the guy lives? No! I am not in toruble, Would have been! That Prick almost got me fired a couple days ago! " He gave a small growl the anger seething a bit before a smile rossed his face. "I should get Mr. Robot back! Hey, wanna help me prank the guy? Maybe we could draw something awful on his car! Or egg the car. Think that be good enough? Maybe we sould break into his house, replace all his sugar with salt or white gellatnous powder." Yes, this is what he should do! Prank the guy, get him back, and drag Oascar right into the little game of fun. "What do you think? The guy practically dragged me across the road, shoved me into a bathroom! He deserverse this, Wanna help?"
Signus seemed to get worked up as he mentioned that he and Julius were but neighbors in the same apartment complex. His voice raised and Oscar jumped out of shock because to say he was expecting the outburst was a lie...Signus never seemed like the type of guy to hold a grudge but man was Oscar's judgment or lack of was proven otherwise. Clenching fists as he banged the table with some force to stop the man child from acting up anymore.
“Leave him alone...” Oscar wasn't bluffing, maybe he couldn't fight the guy but Oscar had his own ways dealing with problem people like him and not to mention Julius was a really well known prosecutor and Oscar would happily tell who done it. After all Signus was just a person who made coffee and had small talk with Oscar, while Julius...Julius was someone that he cared for, he was his close friend.
“Grow up Signus...You can just put everything behind you and move on. But I promise you if you do anything to Julius or damage any of his property, losing your job wont be the only thing you'll worry about.”
Oscar was disgusted at what was happening, he had quite a vengeful streak to him and not many people knew this. After all he was but a cripple in a wheel chair. Taking another sip of his coffee to calm himself he sighed, his tone of voice calmed down and the man wasn't causing a ruckus anymore. “Sorry...Just don't do anything stupid and I'm sure there is a misunderstanding to it all because what you describe doesn't sound like Julius at all.”
It was true, dragging someone across the road and stuffing them in a bathroom...Julius couldn't even converse with people there was no way in hell he'd manhandle someone like that. It must of been a misunderstanding but the slander of his friend and any conspiracies or plans to get back at him was not something Oscar would put up with, not from Signus and not from anyone.

BANG! The table went, causing the whole cafe to quiet, especially Signus who turned to him actually kinda shocked and absolutely giving the guy full attemtion, as Oscar asked him to leave the man alone. But.. He.. Almost... The white hair was actually confused as to why a little prank be so harmful? Why the guy just continued about growing up, and putting it behind him. That losing his job was the Absolute Last thing to worry about... Signus actually swallowed a bit of saliva buidling up, suddenly unsure of everything. "But.. he. Oh-oh kay?" He responded barely a whisper, red eyes making contact with the table's design a large blush crossing his face.
There came a small movement, the sound of sipping, followed by a sigh and apology. Signus looked up at the guy taking in the words about misunderstanding. What was there to misunderstand? The guy dragged him a bathroom! Far from his job! Just, there was. Didn't sound like Julius at all? Seriously! Was the guy on some sort of drugs or something?!
Signus took a deep breath calming down, looking up at the clock crap.. Break would be over soon. "It may not be like him, but he did drag me to the bathroom across the street at some 'old' school of his. After some spilled coffee, didn't even listen to me when I tried explaining we had towels inside." Did that happen? That way? Yeah, totally happened that way. He was sure of it. Right? taking a deep breath he grumbled in compliace, "Fine." He gave another small sigh before turning to the guy curiousity getting the best of him, "What kind of guy is he then? All I saw was emotionless Robot, barely responding to anything." His arms becoming crossed, the posture shifting to highly unhealthy and overly relaxed/spread out.
What type of guy was Julius? Oscar couldn't really put into words how much he cared for his friend, lately Julius has helped him in more ways then anyone could imagine. Slowly but surely his heart opened up and he found comfort in friendship that he hadn't experienced for years. It was true Julius could have been seen as a robot, but Oscar liked that about him. He was logical, very pragmatic and someone who you could confide in because he wouldn't judge anyone.
“Julius is...” He stopped for a second, Oscar wanted every word to have meaning as he explained this. “Julius is a person, who you can talk to about anything, he is quite but has a lot to say if you listen long enough. He is the type of person you can rely on.” He smiled as he spoke about his friend, surely the experience Signus had with him was purely coincidental, after all everyone does have off days.
“I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation and everything can be put under the bridge but really Signus, you're around my age right?” He paused Oscar was calm from before however he felt like he needed to say this... “Pranking at your age? I'm not anyone to tell you what to do but aren't you a little old for this?”
Oscar had to mature at a young age, not everyone was like him sure but he expected more from someone like Signus, maybe he didn't really know him after all.

“Julius is...” computer geek slowly replied trying to analyze his words, Signus listened highly curious what the Computer Geek had to say about Mr. Robot. The answer... made him shift slightly with an air of uncertainty, the type of person you rely on? Listen long enough? Like what on pause? The guy... Did seem to act that way... He had to admit, that quietness. But he was pretty sure guy was probably just judging him, then he didn't really report him..... Well.. Still almost got him fired.
Oscar asked if they were similar ages, Signus merely released a huf before answering "Bet so, 22." Then the male continued calling pranking immature, this made him slightly stutor in thought pattern. "What? Ahh come now, pranking ageless! Even old goonies do it at the age of forty-five? You just need to get out more." He gave a roll eye, repositioning picking himself off the chair, leaning on it... Pretending to do his job, now that his break was 'over'. A grin crossing his face, "You should try one, just for funsies... Nothing big, just snake in cereal box."
Putting a snake in a cereal box seemed quite dangerous and Oscar couldn't believe Signus would even consider that funny! It was true there were different types of humor and not everyone shared the same sense of humor, however the idea of putting a dangerous animal in a box that could potentially be poisonous didn't seem like the type of thing you should laugh at. If only Oscar could assume he meant a plastic snake but with Signus, Oscar couldn't really tell what his intentions were. If they were a pack of cards Signus would definitively be the wildcard, the joker while Oscar would be a simple ten of spades.
“Sadly Signus, I think at our age we should be focusing on developing a future rather than playing childish pranks on others who don't deserve it.” His words were bitter, Oscar was quite narcissistic on this subject and the reason had to do with his accident years ago that took his legs from him, and unlike other teenagers Oscar never really got to experience the satisfaction of running around and playing pranks so the idea or rather the concept was bitter for him.
Oscar was never one to bite into peer pressure but there was a part of him that wanted to, just this once. You could tell Oscar was conflicted and if anyone was going to push him over the edge, Signus would be the one too. “Fine...I'll do it one.”

When he made that slight presuasive argument about living a little, and using what could be called peer pressure... He hadn't expected it to actually work, thought that Oscar was almost as much a stick in the mud as Mr. Robot. Computer people right? So his first response wasn't exactly quick and swift, but rather a stumble of shock. "What? Do it?"
He turned the expression clear as day, "You wanna do a prank? Against Mr. Robot?" This confusion and distrust shifted over to an almost over joy. "Oh! How should we do it? Cereal, Cookie dough, Bubblegum, Soda, water?" It hadn't occurred to him the list been nothing but food, then his rumbling stomach gave way the small hunger he felt... A red blush crossed his face, "Know what, we can talk about this later. How long do you plan to stay here?"
He nodded but made a stipulation, “Nothing to ruin or break his property. He works hard but if we have some harmless fun I don't see why we couldn't think of something I guess.” Oscar sighed, should he really be doing this? What if Julius reacts poorly and this stupid prank ruins his friendship yet Signus's offer was too alluring to resist because in the best case Oscar got to have some fun and relive his lost teenage years.
“I need to go actually, however, why don't I come back later then and we can think of a plan. But nothing too serious!” He just felt like he needed to reaffirm that there was to be absolutely no tom foolery done that could damage anything Julius owned or his job for example. He finished his coffee and waved goodbye to Signus and left the shop.
~ Some number of hours later just before closing time ~
The day had been uneventful, he finished off everything he needed to do and people came to pick up their repaired computers and laptops. Oscar sighed as he waited for the white haired barista, surely it was almost closing time for a coffee shop it was already six thirty at night. Popping his head in he yelled, “Signus, you almost ready? Also have you come up with a plan yet?”

Oscar said not long, and he had left leaving Signus to complete his work. several hours later the shop was just about to close, Oscar had came asking if had come up with anything. Signus formed a grin, "Absolutely without ruining or breaking any property at all. "
He went around the counter onto the side Oscar stood at, he held a notebook in his hand that looked to be the pad used to take customers order when the computer system went down. There seemed to be pictures on it with an image of some sort of circle knocking on a door, and a stick figure sneaking in. "Okay you knock on Julius door, ask him for flour, I'll sneak in the back.. Set a remote controlled snake in the kitchen. Then we can scare him to drop the flour all over himself!" His finger pointed to a face with what looked ot e hair? That was really flour and a rather unhappy expression. "Well?" He asked with the giddiness of a child. "Wanna do it tonight?"
