What Pumpkin! He wouldn't try to jump Tom...
Would he?

"I guess that we could work on that self-defense instead, though I doubt you'll be getting jumped by a pumpkin anytime soon."

A smile sets itself on Percilia's face, even though she is trying with all her might to suppress it. She is barely managing to stifle a giggle, though it is only a matter of time before it escapes into the environment around her.

Plus, I don't think Tom and Percilia would end up in the Penal Company if something went wrong involving Percilia's explosives. People without arms or legs make horrible soldiers.

J&L's Apartment

"They'd have to catch me first." Jasper says, still grinning. "sides, my head is far to pretty to be stuck on some pike somewhere."

[Murkus]

Fettina's Suite

"Yeah." Tina smiles solemnly. She pulls away from Shrike, taking another spoonful of banana pudding and 'chewing' it thoughtfully. "How long did it take you? To find Zamira? Or did she find you...?" The platinum girl looks between them.

J&L's Apartment

"Far too pretty. That's right." Legion gives a low chuckle, turning on her side so she can hug Jasper fully. After another moment, she says, "Hey, y'know, back in Trogs, I remember you saying something... what was it... freedom? What was that about?"

[ThirdEmperor]

J&L's Apartment

"One of the many reasons I love you. You don't demand I give up my villainous ways." Jasper says, snuggling up to Legion. "In fact, somedays you're more villainous than I. And it's very attractive."

Umbrella Apartment Building
Anele pulls up in her convertible outside of the apartment building.
"Meddy...I was kinda going to ask you to move in with me. I got an apartment for cheap from Umbrella..."

"One of the many reasons I love you. You don't demand I give up my villainous ways." Jasper says, snuggling up to Legion. "In fact, somedays you're more villainous than I. And it's very attractive."

Legion smirks, holding Jasper close and rubbing the small of his back. "Attractive? So you want me to be a big badguy? I'll keep that in mind." The Lady recalls that time when Jasper saw her murder some henchmen and remained unphased. That was... interesting. This relationship certainly allows a large degree of moral freedom. "I like that about you, too. How you don't bother me about the Objects."

The Ebon Citadel

Unless something goes horribly wrong, the Soul Jars containing Sarah and Rael likely arrive here. Since they retain their senses in the jar, they will find that they are in a dark room, with what appears to be an orb of red mana illuminating the room in a fiendish and yet oddly comforting crimson light.

The room itself has walls of flowing obsidian, and the furnishings are formed from good mahogany. Wherever this is, it does not appear to have been lived in at any point, and appears to be some kind of guest room.

Sarah blankly asks: "Where are we?"

Outside, unbeknownst to the two, Cyrus has cheated the time-space Continuum to arrive here before he left AMEN, continuity be damned.

[Lady Serpentine]

[The Ebon Citadel]

Rael is pleased that they're apparently out of AMEN, and that Sarah is here as well.

"I'm not certain, but it's probably somewhere that the person who placed us in these lenses considers safe."

EE - Upstairs



Aeryn returns a few moments later in a vest-like jacket, T-shirt, jeans and boots, and gives Mike an appraising look with a smile.

Mike appraises her as well, smiling back,
I nearly forgot how beautiful you are.
Old memories begin to surface again, but Mike manages to push them back. He couldn't let them keep haunting him like this.

"Course I won't. Long as you let me live a life of crime, I won't object to your hobbies either. Just don't get yourself killed, or I'll probably miss you." Jasper says jokingly, wrapping his arms around Legion's shoulders and pulling her into a passionate kiss. The curtain probably falls again quite shortly.

[BladeofObliviom]

[The Ebon Citadel]

Rael is pleased that they're apparently out of AMEN, and that Sarah is here as well.

"I'm not certain, but it's probably somewhere that the person who placed us in these lenses considers safe."

[The Ebon Citadel]

Sarah is about to respond when a section of the wall, one that is slightly embossed upon the Obsidian Veil, seems to flow apart in strips, peeling back into the walls themselves as the silhouette of the man entering the room is revealed.

The man takes a step forward, and the primal crimson light reveals Cyrus, in all of his glory. He's apparently changed into his casual robes rather than his Combat-ready armor, and some black mana plays across his fingers.

So, how's it going? I trust that you're both ready to be recalled to life?

[Murkus]

J&L's Apartment

"Good." Legion says, obviously pleased. Then he starts trying to curtain again. The Lady's tempted, and surprised at his energy, but manages to pull away and take a breath. "You wanna do it on the floor?" Despite the question, her tone is mirthful and curious rather than scolding.

Umbrella Apartment Building
Anele pulls up in her convertible outside of the apartment building.
"Meddy...I was kinda going to ask you to move in with me. I got an apartment for cheap from Umbrella..."

Ding.
She grins.
Sure, sweetie.

... Also I sort of have news.

Umbrella Apartments
Anele smiles.
"Yes hun?"
She goes to put her arm around Meddy.

[Beans]

[Apartment]
She holds up a notepad scrawled with stuff.
We need a friggin' wedding planner.

[Mindfreak]

Umbrella Apartments
"We could find one in the yellow pages! I have a phone book in the apartment!"

[Beans]

[Apartment]
Okay.
She'll help unpack and take stuff to the apartment.

[Mindfreak]

Umbrella Apartments-Apartment 5
They eventually get everything unpacked. Meddy might notice that their bedroom has what is like a large web suspended above the ground made of super tough fibers. On top is a soft covering and pillows and blankets!

[Beans]

[Apartment]
She climbs on, gleeful.

[Mindfreak]

Umbrella Apartments
"You like the bed Meddy? I picked it out with you in mind..."
She climbs on as well! It's comfy!

[Beans]

[Apartment]
Bouncy bouncy wheee.

Brief dedtiem.

Umbrella Apartments - Apartment 5
Alene laughs.
"I guess that's a yes..."
She lays down on the bed, letting her head rest on a pillow.

[Beans]

[UA - Apt 5]
She nods, grinning.
Love it.

[Mindfreak]

UA - Apt 5
Alene smiles.
"That's good..."
She then laughs.
"I guess I'm caught in your web..."

"I am, certainly. Though I believe that, unless Sarah wishes to be undead, I'm needed for bringing her back."

[Beans]

[UA - Apt 5]
That's a terrible pun, but yes!

[Mindfreak]

UA - Apt 5
Alene grins.
"I'm kinda tired, how about you?"

[Beans]

[UT - Apt 5]
Same here.
She tries to cuddle her.
Let's nap.

[BladeofObliviom]

"I am, certainly. Though I believe that, unless Sarah wishes to be undead, I'm needed for bringing her back."

[The Ebon Citadel]

Well, I figured that much. Give me a moment.

Black magic plays across Cyrus' fingers, the kind usually used to raise the dead as nightmarish creatures seen only in the darkest dreams of the most disturbed people who ever lived. Anyway, he attempts to reconstitute Rael directly from the Soul Jar. Since Rael, technically speaking, isn't alive, Cyrus can do it. He'd need to channel Green Mana to get Sarah back, though.
