All of our work is legal, but people can get quite emotional about these matters."My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

"This neighbourhood is human, except for these lizards. That's all that matters." Although Ekkehard is more interested in how much it will tarnish the various souls in this party. "Let's get to work blocking that last little bit so they can't get out." Ekkehard will take some bricks out of his pockets one-by-one. Evidently he has some interdimensional space in his pockets. "Let's be quick; we don't want to be caught."Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

"Yes, quite understandable. Even if everything you do is completely above the law, there's always some people who object and protest. It's a shame that you have to wrap things up in such secrecy, even when you're doing nothing wrong." Roberts sighs and takes a sip of his drink as it arrives. "But perhaps I could be of some use in this laboratory of yours?"Before you criticise someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you'll be a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

Angie thinks about it for a second then frowns.

Calvin sits up sorely. "Sorry, I know I said I would call but I couldn't. I sort of was in seclusion. My uncle wanted to make sure I was free of any influence, so he put me through this ritual he knew. I just got done a few hours ago actually. My uncle 'reminded' me off our 'date' here."
Calvin injects a heavy dose of air quotes into that last sentence. Apparently his uncle is under the impression that this is more then a friendly book club.Check out My Writing

"I thought you weren't going to tell your Uncle what had happened," Charity says. She can sort of understand why he thinks something more might be going on, after Calvin spent most of a night with her. But at the moment, she's more concerned about what John is putting Calvin through than about what he thinks about her.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

"Yeah, I thought more about it and figured that would have been a mistake. He needs to know about it so he can keep himself safe. Plus I was hoping he might be able to shine some light on whoever was behind this. Keeping it from him might have been easier, but it would have been the wrong thing to do."Check out My Writing

"No, if I wasn't sure that it was all gone when I left the base I am now. I am under my own control now, and hopefully it will stay that way."
The rituals he underwent may have been extreme but he knew they would work and help him. Not to mention his uncle wouldn't rest till he was sure that Calvin didn't have anyone else controlling him.Check out My Writing

Calvin nods. "Yeah it was. Having those thoughts pop up, they seemed so real, they made sense. Even though I knew they shouldn't. Knowing how close I was to loosing control scared me. I know I can hurt someone, but I have always been able to choose not to."Check out My Writing

"No, at least not specifically. Just that you had a place to hold up and some friends who could help me out. I figured he could do without the specifics."
Though he also knew if he told him the truth he would have looked a lot less kindly on Chairty's friendship. Calvin didn't want to be forbidden from seeing her, not that it would stop him, but it would be more annoying for sure.Check out My Writing

Re: [Nexus] Inside 48
[Inside]
Krystal brings a hand up to the back of her head as she considers the Lady's response. Clearly, this woman hadn't lived on Earth for any length of time.
Well...where I'm from, I'm kind of a genetic off-shoot from normal humans. My DNA is different. Normal humans don't have pure white eyes, or hair like fine crystals. And they don't have any kind of special powers. Mutants do. Every mutant's DNA is different from a normal human's. Hence them being called mutants.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 48
The kids listen, captivated.
That's very interesting. How is business?
Did you ever make a magic sword?
Yeah! Filthy non-humans! Who do we think we are, living around here with humans? I mean, us non-humans are totally not safe. So, when do we light them all on fire?Still not really here. Still just an illusion.

"Business is quite well. Just the other day I got an order for a gross of magical egg crackers. I haven't the faintest idea why such a device would be needed, but I suppose some people just can't live without a gadget to do every little thing," Sigil laughs.
And picks up a fork with his hoof (how does he DO that?) and spears a carrot.
"And I don't typically make weapons. I certainly favor tools of the more non-violent sort if at all possible. Which isn't to say I couldn't make a magic sword if I put my mind to it. It would just be harder for me to really pour my love into something that I know is going to be used to hurt things."
Well! That's a nice sentiment to have.Warning! Random Encounter™ detected!

Re: [Nexus] Inside 48
Inside
It finally clicks what the Lady is asking.
Oh, you mean besides the hair and eyes? Well, I have some regeneration, and my bones are made out of some kind of diamond-like stuff. And I can extend them. Like this.
She'll bring her right hand up in front of her. The Lady has a chance to see a good amount of scars on her knuckles before she forms a fist, causing a pointed crystal to slide out of each lower knuckle. They come to a stop at about three inches in length. They are mostly clear.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 48
"My qualifications?" Roberts frowns, "Well, I am one of the countless people who arrived here in unusual ways. A remarkably common occurrence around, isn't it? Point is, unfortunately my means of arrival didn't allow me the luxury of bringing such things as my qualifications with me. And since I no doubt came from a very different place to you, I fear the names of the places I studied and taught at won't mean much, though I'm happy to fill you in anyway if you wish."

Oh boy there is a phrase he hadn't heard in awhile, and it makes him nervous. Usually that question meant there was trouble coming. So he tightens up a bit before responding trying to sound as nonchalant as possible.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 48
Hank's Hookahs
"I don't know.
He sits back looking down at his hands, picking his fingernails as he tries to figure out how to respond. Sure he has thought about leaving his uncle. Running away from his life, but he never knew where he would run to. He never could figure out a safe place to run to.
Then again there was a huge part of him that wants to stay. His uncle loves him, took him in and gave him a place in the world. While he may not like hurting anyone he has to admit fighting excites him like nothing else. Learning to sneak unseen, moving through the shadows and getting into places you shouldn't be. He would be lying if he said he didn't enjoy that part.
If he did leave how would his uncle react. Not very well most likely. He liked things his way and Calvin leaving wouldn't fit into his plans. Calvin may not know exactly what is going on in his uncles head but he knows that John values Calvin, and wouldn't let him go without a fight.
"I don't think so."
He doesn't trust his tongue to explain half the thoughts in his head especially on a topic like this. While it may be clear that he is obviously conflicted getting him to talk about it would be a challenge.Check out My Writing
