Griffith Fitz learned from a very early age that life wasn't fair.
At the tender age of thirteen, he lost both of his parents, one after the other. His mother had gotten sick and passed due to illness, and his father, unable to live without her, passed due to a different sort of illness. He and his younger siblings initially went into the custody of their eldest brother, Lawson, but Griffith learned once again the unfairness of life when he was taken from he and his younger siblings due to an "accident" at "work".
But he didn't pass before letting Griffith in on the business he was into.
Lawson worked at an autoshop by day and by night he did work for a local gang, a gang Griffith was now hoping to join now since he'd be picking up the role of guardianship of both Dixon and Coco.
As his two younger siblings slept in their respective rooms in the house, night having long since fell, Griffith milled about his own room, getting ready to go talk to his brother's former "boss", Elias. If the talk went well, he was told there'd be an initiation, and so long as he passed that, he'd be in. |

Harper couldn't remember anything past a feeling of weightlessness. Past being greeted by a man named Barachiel and being told that she was being given a chance to redeem herself from her sins and a chance at eternal peace.
To learn that you were dead and balancing on a chance of literal heaven or hell was quite the shocker to the system but she seemed to take it well- it's not like she had any earthly attachments anymore to hold her down, right?
It would be as easy as letting go of nothing.
Barachiel and the 'council' as Harper had nicknamed them had apparently decided that she'd be a 'guardian angel' for a select person and it was her job to bring him peace, protection and guide him to his 'higher' meaning and away from the evils he was going to face, whatever that may be and was given a small run down about the guy.
Which brought her to now. She was 'cloaked' since it was the rules to not show herself unless she felt necessary, watching this guy she'd been 'assigned' to pace back and forth in his room, trying to figure out if he was going to go visit this stupid guy elsewhere or if the man was coming here. She had an idea on how to put a fork in his plans if he was going off but she wanted to wait and make sure.
She sighed and leaned against his dresser, casually knocking his keys behind it. She presumed if all her subtle ways didn't work, she'd just straight up reveal herself and tell him he was being a fucking moron but why the hell would he believe her? |

Griffith had worked up his nerve and just before he could turn and grab his keys, he could hear the very distinct sound of them clattering to the floor. He turned to look at his dresser with a grimace.
"Please don't tell me..." He went over and tried to peer behind the furniture awkwardly, groaning when he could see the keys. "Goddammit." He murmured before going to move the dresser, which was a task and a half considering how old and heavy it was. "I don't have time for this." |

| Harper stayed leaning against it, adding extra weight for the time being as she tried to remember what she could remove from a car- or did he drive a bike? to make it not start up. She wasn't great with cars, admittedly. "You're being really dumb, idiot." she frowned. |

| "God, why is this so fucking heavy?" Griffith grumbled as he proceeded to stand upright to start clearing out drawers to make the furniture lighter. |

| Harper sighed, staring at him. "First of all, I'm not that heavy. Secondly, you don't want to do this, you know." she said, trying to do some sort've 'conscious' suggestion, having no idea how any of this worked. "It's just gonna put those kids in danger." |

Griffith grimaced as he unloaded the whole top drawer, but the expression ceased when he heard a light thunk at the bottom of the drawer, something having fell from a pair of pants.
A spare key.
"Aha, motherfucker." Griffith gave a little grin as he snatched up the key. |

| "...Oh goddamn it." Harper said loudly in exasperation and then grimaced. "...Sorry?" she said to the world in general. "Old habits die hard?" she cleared her throat and then went to hurry for downstairs, hoping she could fuck up whatever he planned on taking in time. "You really don't want to do this!" she called again. |

| Griffith crept out of his room and silently made his way downstairs, going to grab his boots and to head out. |

| Harper froze as she looked at the bike, not knowing what the fuck to do. And obviously, everything else wasn't working. "Fuck. What the fuck do I /do/?" she muttered, form flickering back into view for a moment as she dropped her guard. |

Griffith grabbed his boots and silently sneaked out of the house. He paused to pull on his boots on the front porch before proceeding towards his bike parked out front, but he immediately stopped dead in his tracks when he saw someone standing by the bike.
"What the fuck? Who are you?" Griffith quietly called out. |

| Harper jumped out of her skin and turned quickly to look at him, eyes wide. "...Oh shit." she muttered to herself. |

| "What are you doing in our yard? With my bike?" Griff asked as he proceeded to stomp over. |

| "Fuck." Harper whispered under her breath and took a step back. "Uhhhh..." |

| "Listen, I don't want to fight a girl so you better just eat shit and leave. I have places to be." Griff said, waving the girl off. |
