Kate's Apartment
There is a simple text box open. There is a good amount of text off-screen, but on screen this is notable:
Oh!
What happenned?
Kate?
What is going on?
There is a thing in the computer.
There is a new person.
Do you know the person, Kate?
>No
>I think I have to close the laptop to talk to her.
>Can the thing get to you?
No.
What is it?
>I need to talk to the person
Okay.
"Hey," Kate turns to the girl and shuts the laptop. "It's rude to just stop a conversation with someone. How would you like it if I was talking with you and then disappeared? That's what it would be like for her."

"I can't believe Theodore Logan would be The One," Mara says. "Or maybe that happened to Bill and Ted in the future, when the computers took over. Maybe he should have just said 'Be Excellent to Each Other... and Party on, Dudes!' and the machines and humans would have all been friends."

"Yeah, yeah, I'm not really interested about the AI though. I want to know more about you Kate. Why are you sitting here all alone?" Don't you have any friends? The girl asks curiously.

Gods, that might very well be the first thing Mara's ever said since they met that wasn't all about faith or love or violence or torture or death or pain. Mag laughs, not sure if he finds what she said funny, or is just so relieved to hear her say something silly that it just happens all on its own.
"Mara, take it from me, as someone who's worked with computers and AI since forever: they are the biggest party poopers ever. Also, Agent Smith is definitely just a Robot Ted 2.0 with a makeover."

[Arthur's Apartment]
Arthur and Willow shuffle up to Arthur's apartment from the city streets, and he shuts the door behind them.
The armored half-fiend quickly flops on the couch, and starts taking off his boots. "So, you're sure you're alright after what just happened?" No sane individual would be 'alright' after that kind of incident, but then again, the Nexus isn't known for sanity.Vespe Ratavo slowly destroys the GRIMDARKNESS of Warhammer 40K

"I do, but I can't spend all my time with them. In fact, I could plead that I was spending time with a friend. I was teaching her, and talking to her." Kate isn't entertained at all. "My roommate is away, it's too cold to go for a walk, and I don't have a reason to leave."
She crosses her arms at the little girl. "And you still haven't told me who you are."

[Riss' Quarters]
Not feeling clammy and cold would indeed be high on the muse's priority list at the moment and complied with the suggestion after a few moments further of contemplation. The water was soothing with its warmth and she was tempted to just alter the basin that the pool rested in to make for something resembling a bed although she decided to wait on that specific part for now.
"No it's... I don't think that it's something that can be helped. Consequences of past choices coming back to plague me, it seems." Riss said, being rather nebulous on the matter. Part of her wanted either Misha or Mimi to ask what it was in particular as, even though she knew it was selfish, she wanted to be prompted into the particular subject. Then again, given what it is, I... Guess it would be normal to want to ease into it? Maybe? I mean, it is a bit morbid, I guess, but at the same time is it a secret just because I don't feel like talking about it?

"Oh. Well, you can't assume things between Nexuses. You need to treat each person in each one as a new person. What's your name?"
Definitely a being of great power. Have to be careful. Tactful.

SpoilerThis is the thief who likes to hoard,
That loves the bard with the puppet Lord
That admires the fighter with the green-hilted sword,
That employs the Wizard, whose bird is ignored,
That has the gender unexplored
That intrigues the Halfling, usually bored,
That slew a mountain of the goblin horde,
That follows the cleric,
That serves the lich,
That seeks the gate,
That guards the snarl,
That lives in the prison the gods built.

"I'll tell you... if you play a little game with me. I am a version of a person you know in this world. Say a name, and if you guess wrong I'll tell you what that person is like in my world instead. But in turn you have to tell me what that person is like in this world. That sounds fair right?" The girl asks with a smile.

Aiden sits at the end of one of the benches to eat. He wishes he still had his watch, because he's not entirely sure how he's doing for time. In any case, he tries not to socialize much, so that he can get to his new job nice and early.

Re: [Nexus] Home 13: Insert Silly Title Here
Willow sits down next to him and pulls the gauze off her face. After checking that the bleeding seems to have stopped, she turns her attention to Arthur. She scoots close, runs a hand through his hair, and looks into his eyes. "I was afraid I'd lost you."
"You might as well eat your breakfast. I don't think that fork's going anywhere," Mara says. "As funny as it might be if your fork suddenly turned into a bent spoon or whatever."
The fork is suddenly a bent spoon.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

"I guess you still want information on Hannah?" Kate sighs. "I don't know much about her, when she came to me she was a new and powerful being. I helped introduce her to the world, and I haven't really seen her since."
Kate considers a minute more. This girl said that she had already talked to her, so Kate doesn't have to worry about gender swapping. And it's probably not a bad idea as a starting point to assume that whoever it is in this Nexus has a lot of power-
"You're not Libra, are you?"

Magtok just stares blankly at theforkspoon. That, he didn't expect. Not even close to being among the list of things he thought possible. Not the fork bending, but Mara being this silly and comfortable enough with her relationship with him to try something this ridiculous at all.
"You're a diabolical terrible evil wicked heartless demon succubus monster full of awfulness and I hate you."
Yes, of course you do. Which is exactly why you punctuate that comment with kiss to her cheek, isn't it?

In that case, Aiden is quick to eat and stand back up to get his plate cleaned. If he isn't interrupted, then he gets to leaving the hotel to get over to Mallside.

Kate nods, trying not to panic. This isn't Libra, not as Kate knows her, it's... someone else. With the same powers and name, but she's a different person.
Right. No reason for undue panic, only the care usually taken when dealing with powerful beings.
Kate doesn't say anything right off, as she can't think of anything to say, instead waiting for Libra to continue to direct the situation.

Magtok rolls his eyes. "You think I wanted to stop myself from eating? There's perfectly good eggs here that I can't even scoop up with this because it's bent all screwy. Now say 'it's a shame you don't have a really cool eyepatch and a house that doesn't smell like cigarettes, Magtok. And a burlap sack full of gold coins and clothes that aren't being stolen from some old man and a lover who doesn't ruin forks and has a butt that's somehow ten percent more perfect than mine is.' All of that, if you don't mind."

Re: [Nexus] Home 13: Insert Silly Title Here
Arthur pauses in his removal of his armor, and looks into Willow's own eyes. He takes her by the hand and squeezes it gently. OK, pour it on.
"Come on. You're not getting rid of me that easily." He cracks a smile and holds her a little closer, mentally screaming at himself the whole time. Seriously!? THAT'S your line!?

Re: [Nexus] Home 13: Insert Silly Title Here
[Arthur's Place]
Arthur's caught slightly off-guard (that seems to happen to him a lot) but he breaks away from the kiss after a few seconds, his tail coiling around Willow's ankle. It's a frequent enough gesture of affection he's made towards her, and Willow's been on the receiving end plenty of times in the past, but this time's different. Almost urgent.
Looking her in the eye, Arthur's expression is...odd. Like he's not all there. "You sure you want to do this?" He'd asked the question before the raid on the warehouse. He's asking it again, like he sees it coming. If Willow doesn't pick up on what he's asking, she's either dense or not all there herself.Vespe Ratavo slowly destroys the GRIMDARKNESS of Warhammer 40K
