Trucido lies there, his white coat now stained with his own blood, his left hand completely mangled and broken. He's alive, although his skull has been fractured.

Garn is laying strewn across the road in an awkward position. His windpipe looks damaged, but other than that and a nasty cut along his side, he's the picture of health. He does not wake up at the fox-girl's call.#27Sigatars

Having not spoken to Reinholdt the duration of the trip, Tovia frostily steps out of the car and walks down the streets at a brusque pace.Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

Hmph! Women.
Well Reinholdt's not going to play her game. She's the one hiding some project she shouldn't be doing. It's her guilty conscience that made her trip, nothing else.
He follows Tovia, keeping barely up with her pace and staying behind her.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 54
Inside Docks
Ken comes back up with the pokeball, his blush sufficiently driven away as he walks up on shore one last time and lays it on the ground next to Becca and her gooey new companion. He's shivering mightily, the cold autumn weather not doing him any favors after this many dives.
"*CHEW!*" He shoves his nose into his arm to keep from sneezing all over her as he wonders how he's going to put this...
"So what were you thinking trying to go after that Mew? You could have gotten you and your pokemon seriously hurt you know." Which is what he spent so much effort trying to prevent both before and after Becca noticed the Mew and everything went to heck.
Temple Heist
Ah, perfect. Now to see if she can implement phase two of her hastily thrown together plan.
In a complicated bit of manipulation, Merideth will attempt to craft a replica of the mask she's found out of the material of the stand, slide it up her forearm to where she's gripping the real thing, and change places between the two to let the replica spin and hover in the case as she retracts her arm downwards through the stand and pulls the mask along with it. If the enchantments on the walls and floors are also on the stands, it may take a while longer, but it would be worth it for what she's planning. She should have a while longer before anyone comes back here if she's lucky, and having this thing as a hostage might help her if she's not.
Hmm, although it never hurt to by yourself that extra time. Even though manipulating the walls is sluggish, she'll sink a leg into the floor and try to extend her reach through the walls near the entrance to this museum that's closest to her and seal it off as she did the alleyway, by warping the stone from the surrounding walls to fill the gap. If both that and the mask pilfering works, she'll move on to the next stand and attempt her trick with moving her hand through its stand again to feel what lies beneath the case.
Meeting Point
Shayan is out of the ambulance by the time Cin arrives, and almost before he's within eyeshot she's rushing over to him so that she can lift him up and get him over to it with her vines, so that he won't jar himself any further and have more injuries for his regeneration to deal with. She speaks to him in a low voice, hoping he won't try to respond and waste more energy.
"You will have to share the back with a patient I picked up to run further tests on, but I think you'll enjoy her company for the trip. I'll start you on a nutrient and saline drip until we get you back, and then on a hardier diet once we're there. I don't want to have to resort to my new breakthrough with you since I don't know how it will interact with your physiology, but all of my tests so far were positive, so I will if it's the only way to save you." Considering her options, she reaches a vine up and attempts to hit Cin with a spray of sweet pollen, attempting to hypnotize him with the scent into following a short command.
"Be still and rest until we're back home." It may be overkill, but his body will be more likely to listen to the command now and keep immobile, eliminating the small twitches that could otherwise tear muscles further and dig in bone fragments.Last edited by Slii Arhem; 2013-10-21 at 08:39 PM.

For anyone in plots run by me, know that I always tailor solutions to those in the plot. The answer may not be obvious, but it's there, and doable by the displayed abilities of the present characters. If you need help or hints, I'll try to be available to provide them.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 54
Riftline Station > Magic Lamp Toy Store
Tovia leads Rein into a shop filled with all sorts of magic toys for kids, evidently brought from all over the multiverse. Despite the fantastic items for sale, the shop is curiously devoid of costumers. After Rein steps in, the genderbent Toby locks the door and flips the sign around to CLOSED.Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

"You own this place or do the errands consist of beating up shopkeepers?" Reinholdt says, stepping aside and looking at a toy train that runs itself.

Geez, Rein. I'm just picking up an order. She walks up to the sales counter and smiles at the being there, a dark skinned man with eyes of fire, who then hands over a thick envelope. "Who is your friend? If he is a Peacekeeper, your death will not be quick."Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

No. No you're just a smartass Rein, andkind ofa jerk.
Though great. They're already picking up illegal substances. Rein should have figured by the whole 'Magic Lamp' title.

No, he's cool. You're cool, right pal? Oh, hey, you know, I've never asked: where do you get your papers? Tovia opens the envelope and goes through it's contents in front of the treasure hunter. Birth certificate, Social Security card, driver's license, artifact permit, passports, wizard's license, business cards, concealed ward permit, et cetera.Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

"So cool, I might as well be a corpse."
Reinholdt looks for the name on the papers as well as place of origin that might indicate where Tovia plans to use them.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 54

The Druidess frowns when Rein doesn't answer the other question about his own fake IDs. It's like he doesn't trust her or something. The name is Tovia Solomon, the place of origin seems to be an Earth of some reality, and, while the documents will satisfy any bureaucracy in the Nexus, they seem to be focused on Eastside.
Fantastic. Great job as always, Jean. Tovia grins once more at the Ifrit, then tucks the envelope into an inner pocket of her suit.Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

Re: [Nexus] Inside 54

Oh that was directed at Reinholdt? He thought Tobias was asking the Ifrit. Mostly because Rein doesn't have papers. He gets by as a cat when it comes to stuff like that usually.
"So... are you abandoning your life as Tobias and embracing your inner female for good then? Might be a nice change for you." Not have to worry about all the usual Tobias stuff.

Rein laughs a bit. "What? You don't get tired of being you and all the baggage and difficulty that comes with it? You don't ever wish for a clean slate, free of mistakes and responsibilities? That people won't judge you on your name alone?"

Well yeah, of course. But responsibilities aren't so easily abandoned. I have a family. And a kingdom. I can't just... give up on them!Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

"No. Suppose not." Rein did. Course, he exploded his kingdom entirely when he did, so probably not a good example here.
"So what's the point of the papers then?"

In front of Generic Shop with Passedout
The fox-girl grabs her mobile phone after making clear both are alive. She calls for the ambulance. After that she tries to move them into better positions. You know the things you should do as a first aid reaction.
The ambulance should arrive a few minutes later. If they don't wake up they will be brought into the nearest hospital. They also take the kitsune with them, just for futher reference.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Tovia suddenly whirls around and leans into Reinholdt, a vulpine smirk on her face. So I can clone myself and give her a clean slate. Duh.Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

Re: [Nexus] Inside 54

I was planning on using my magic anyways. I've never done anything on this scale before. It'll be fun! She looks searchingly into his eyes. His creepy, creepy eyes. You seem surprised. Isn't this the natural solution to the problem of wanting a clean slate, yet not being able to abandon responsibilities? Well, the second natural solution, but I've been doing that one already.Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

His eyes reveal... nothing! Not even what he's looking at. I'm not sure she'd want to know either. "I'm pretty sure natural has nothing to do with it. Explosions is generally the answer. Not the best answer. Actually, guess that depends on how much you like explosions."

Re: [Nexus] Inside 54
[Streets]
I was going to say "logical", but I hate it when you laugh at me. The genderbent Tobias scans the area, then leads him into a forum that blends ancient Roman architecture and apparel with the modern Italian scene of people sitting on tables outside storefronts, drinking espresso and eating gelato while they watch passersby. There's a plaza up ahead where two men in purple-hemmed togas are debating the merits of their respective philosophies in regards to coping with living in such a chaotic place.
Tovia strolls up to an aqueduct that runs tangent to this forum and waves to the naiad lounging within.Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

"Still mad about the tripping thing, huh? Sorrrrry... yeesh."
Reinholdt feels like he should be drinking espresso and watching passerbys while he's here.
"So all these errands are to set up this... uh... this uh..." I'm sure Reinholdt would finish that question about cloning, but naiad. He's totally not staring! Or you probably couldn't tell if he was.
I'm not sure if it's a cat vs. fish thing or not here.

Tovia bends down and she and the naiad quickly kiss each others cheeks. "How's the family?"
An excellent question. I'm afraid I never know exactly. Exactly what, how many children you have?

Re: [Nexus] Inside 54

"Babysitters."
No, really. And through them I found a good housesitter who worked as an intermediary for me to buy an apartment. Did you know that there's this huge network of teenagers that have formed a babysitters guild? They are X-men style mutants, supernatural beings, engineered super soldiers, sole survivors of calamities, and, of course, magical girls. They do good deeds and random acts of kindness as a hobby. Isn't that awesome? As she gushes, Tovia pulls a pack of Lucky Strikes from a pocket and takes two cigarettes out of the pack before setting it on the side of the aquaeduct. She gives one to Pronoe, takes the other herself, and lights them both.Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores

Re: [Nexus] Inside 54

Ugh, smoking? Really? What a terrible habit. Fitting perhaps for some babysitters, but that stuff will kill you!
Reinholdt takes a cautious step away to avoid breathing in the smoke.
"That's... huh. Have you told Jamie about this guild? She might want to join." Or be the kid who doesn't listen to their supernatural babysitter vampire.
