Cave of Being
Gabriell stares at the ground, waiting to be released.
Dave's Free Clinic
Dave looks Clarissa dead in the eye and raised his hand. "No."
He counters the spell, keeping him non-pregnant.
"Now I'm going to ask nicely once more, get on the table so we can deliver our children!"
Dave's had more difficult patients before. He knows how to deal with this kind of nonsense!

The Lady and Krystal
The Lady kinda slumps and tries to lean on Krystal, the impact of her situation fully hitting her.
"I'm all alone...in the entire multiverse, I'm what's left of the Time Lords..."
And then she began to cry.
"I think we'll want to go to Dana's tomorrow. I don't think any of us should be seen in public without a bath and a change of clothes." Luckily he anticipated enough to bring fresh clothes for himself and the kids for getting home, though he doesn't know if this place has a bathtub anywhere. He'll probably have to just mop them down with a soapy cloth.
The kids play kickball in the bowling lanes, inventing rules as they go. Poor ghost kitty is not getting any more attention.
Whatever. Fine! :smallmad. It's not like it wants their attention or anything. "Mrow."
Laneside Bowling
It curls over the hand vent and seems to go to sleep.
Justin looks down at his jumpsuit. That's probably going to need a laundromat, and he probably needs to wash up. He hasn't told the Applehils yet, but he has a date further in the timeline today. "Yeah." Brand's right on this one.
No bathtub, though. Brand's gonna have to do the rag thing.

"Don't doubt me. I am perfectly capable of disappearing, finding a fairy ring, going back to my home, and living there. But let's ignore that for a second. Why do you think that I could help you get your powers back? I mean, I could help you do a lot of things, but what amazing leap of logic makes you think that I could give you powers?"
"Do you even know who I am? I don't think we've met."
Random Park
"I can doubt you as much as I want silly girl." Libra replies. "But that's not the point though, see what I need you for is to kill someone. Or at least make that person give and/or share her powers with me. Oh and I'm Libra you should remember that name." The former oni says with a nod.
Libra, huh? Okay. Fine. If this Libra wants to try and use Psycho as a pawn, she can TRY.
"Let me think. Tell me how to find them, but don't get to her yourself. Don't want to make them nervous. Don't try and spy on me when I meet them, that goes horribly wrong in my experience. Now then, what else is there? Oh. Right. Let me finish my nap first. Also, give me a reason to care. Why would I help you?"
"Read mostly, sometimes I like to go to the arcade in the mall and play the games there. I like to run as well, it helps me clear my head, I do my best thinking when running."
That is how they first meet actually, when he slipped during one of his runs and crashed into an alley near her.
"Pah! I don't try to pick on victims weaker then myself like you do." Err... isn't that what you have been doing all along? "I'm going for the big ones, which is a true oni in the form of a young girl! Wouldn't that... be like a true challenge for you or something? So far you have just been playing around with mortals that wouldn't even able to touch you but I'm giving you something more here. Plus if this gives me my powers back, I'll grant you whatever you want. You can just wish away and I would be able to grant all of them."
Oh no! Doctor Decible has one last trick up his sleeve. One last trump card he saves for all but the most horrendous of villains in the most dire situations. One last move!
Well, ok, not really. He just tries punching the ghost again repeatedly as the ghost runs away. You know, considering how he shouts all the time, he probably is deaf and can't hear the ghost.
So yeah. Doctor Decible's got nothing.
THIS TIME! BUT JUSTICE NEVER CEASES AND ALWAYS PREVAILS! Just... a little later.

Uh huh. Vriveka silently notes a number of assumptions, a contradiction, a promise woth it's weight in gold (promises are immaterial and therefore weightless.)
"That's great. How do I find her?"
Vriveka rolls her eyes. This Libra person is dense.
"Uh, I haven't figured out that part of the plan yet. But since you believe you're so smart, why don't you figure out that huh? Her name is uh... well! I think you know that girl called... okay, fine! The only name I know is Mintbalm, she should known the name of the girl that I can't remember that protected the target and therefore must know where she is. Since they are friends and all." Libra explains.
Vriveka shows not an ounce of this internal reaction. "Okay, okay, I'll look into it after my nap. But don't expect anything too fast, and don't follow me around because that's creepy. In the mean time you need to get a job and new clothes and a shower and all those human things. Night."
Lost
A girl is walking down a street. Cobblestone path and brick buildings... it's a bit older architecture than most of the city.
The girl has slightly wavy blonde hair, rather plain clothes, and kind of a distant look. She's so distracted that she might run into someone...
...such as the Highly Visible Ninja who just turned the corner directly into the girl's path. Wearing a modestly tight black outfit, twin katanas, and a two-tone brown-framed-with-white hairstyle, Lucy, continuity having spindled so the tournament is over and heading in the direction of the rumoured tavern to drink (and possibly curtain) away her first-round loss, doesn't see the other either in time to avoid a collision!
And the (mostly) brunette looks up in surprise as she stumbles back as well, quickly catching her balance. "Oh, I'm sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going. I'm alright - are you?"
"Oh, that's not good." The woman smiles. "I'm Lucca, by the way - but you can call me Lucy. Um, where do you live - will your parents be looking for you?"
Gerri is quiet for a moment, and then starts speaking "No, I'm not some kid. I'm old enough to not do stupid things." Gerri begins shaking a little bit. "Okay, maybe I'm not the most mature, but I'm not some teenage idiot. I don't need constant supervision or I'll hurt myself." Oh dear, now she's crying.
Well, that was unexpected.
Lucy blinks in surprise at the sudden tears.
...then, feeling terrible for having upset the poor girl, instinctively goes to give her a hug.
Krystal allows the Lady to lean on her as much as she needs to. She kinda expected this to happen.
She'll go to wrap an arm around her shoulders to comfort her.
Hey...you might be the last Time Lord, but you're not alone.
The Lady and Krystal
Uh oh.
Krystal may very well find that The Lady is now hugging her.
Krystal's on the hug train now.
And the hug train don't make no stops.
"The only person I have is...you. And I barely know you."
More crying.
"But I guess you're nice." she said with a sniffle.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know," Lucy says, genuinely apologetically and with feeling. She holds the hug for a moment before letting go. "So, um...start over, maybe?" she asks, trying to smile encouragingly.
And the ninja-swashbuckler smiles, taking the hand and shaking it fairly firmly, but not too firm.
"It's good to meet you Gerri. I'm Lucy. Were you trying to go somewhere in particular?"
"I've heard about something like that, but I don't know where it is. I don't know where I am, either. You know where we are, right?" if Lucy leads somewhere, Gerri will follow.
"...sort of. Things are a bit different from how I remember them, though," Lucy admits. Since she remembers them From The Future. "I think it's this way though."
Krystal doesn't mind the hugging. Especially since it seems the Lady is in desperate need of it. If the Lady brushes against Krystal's short hair, she might find that uncomfortable. It is pretty stiff.
At the last comment, Krystal chuckles a little. Thanks. You seem pretty nice yourself.
And don't worry. You'll be making friends here before you know it.
