Villager: Gil

Meeting Gil:
"Tsk tsk tsk, what do we have here?" The voice is coming from somewhere above you. You look up, and you see a horse sitting on the ceiling. Just sitting there, defying all laws of physics. It doesn't last long, and the horse falls downwards, landing in a heap in front of you. "I'm ok!" The horse gets up almost immediately afterwards, steam rising from their clothes. They look almost comically confused, and they would have seemed adorable if not for the maniacal grin on their face. "So you, you're not from around here are you? I haven't seen you in the village, so you're either new, or you're just the Doctor's project. If you're new... you won't know why no one comes near this cave." The grin spreads to an abnormal length. Everything about this horse is unnerving at this point, the way they seemed to be able to defy reality, the way their teeth reflected the faint lighting in the cave... Before you can back away, answer their question- or even open your mouth to ask what they were sitting on the ceiling for, their mouth closes and they're back to normal. "I'm just kidding! Come on, I have to show you something! New people are so exciting!" They bounce excitedly down a side corridor. You glance back at the light as you step after them, something urging you to follow the horse.

Sitting in the horse's cave and sipping on some tea you recieved, you think back on what you've learned about him. He's male. His name is Gil, but his birthname is Gilen. And he really, really enjoys collecting shiny items- silver in particular. He showed you an entire cave full of items before he had to excuse himself for 'something important.' You were still waiting on him.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I"M SO SORRY I LEFT YOU ALONE FOR SO LONG AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
You nearly choke on your tea as Gil runs through the door, eyes shut and hooves in the air. He trips over the rug and goes crashing into the far wall, all while shouting how sorry he is. You wait, one eyebrow raised, you've already gotten used to this. He stands up and haphazardly runs around for another minute. You debate whether you should try to calm him down, and decide to at least give it a shot.
Upon hearing you speak, Gil stops dead in his tracks. "I was so busy apologizing, I forgot you were here-" He cuts himself off and bows repeatedly, starting his apologizing again. You sigh, realizing he'll just quit on his own. A few minutes later, he does quit, and starts talking to you about what the inside of a rock looks like. He starts cleaning up the mess he made while he speaks.
When he's finally done, he plops down in the chair across the den from you. "Uh... So I forgot why I brought you here in the first place," Gil says sheepishly, fiddling with his dark pink scarf. "Oh! Right, I wanted to see if you wanted to be my dinner!" He grins, and for the first time, you notice the two extremely long, sharp incisors glinting close to the front of his mouth. You gulp and set down the tea. "Of course, you can say no, but I haven't had food for so long..." He leans closer. "So what is it? Yes or no?"

Just then, another being forms in the corner of your view. A sense of unease washes over the room as a frightening visage replacing Gil's usually bubbly attitude. You wonder who this person is, if Gil doesn't like them. Your question is soon answered as a fox in reaper-like clothing glides into view. Gil leans back in his chair again, still looking angry. "What are you doing here Glimmer?" The fox remains silent for a moment, before he opens his mouth. "I'm making sure you aren't eating your... guest- I may need them for a later experiment, so do not damage their organs." The fox's voice seems to get threatening during several parts of his sentence. You don't want to be an experiment. Not at all. You start to get up, to get out of the room, but Gil's eyes flash towards you, pinning you in place. Then his gaze softens. "You can go, but I'll see you out of the cave so Glimmer doesn't try to uh... end your career." He flashes another glare at the reaper, who slowly fades out of visibility. You reluctantly follow Gil, glancing behind you every now and then, not wanting to encounter the reaper on your own- even if Gil had threatened you before hand, he seemed to want to keep you intact for a possibly better purpose.

As you walk away from the cave, you pick up on a sad aura, and you look back to see Gil sitting on a rock, staring at the sky. He looks down towards you, and waves with that sickeningly wide grin. This might not be the last encounter you two have. You shake your head, clearing the feeling, and head on towards the ruins of the city, and the village before you.
