"I will. And don't worry, you're not going to start getting reports of people tied in knots or anything."
With that, unless something stops her, she'll head out, presumably joining her friends at the gate.
Kallista is there on a rainbow puppy!
She waves sheepishly to Talina!

Talina waves back, smiling as well, and goes to quickly hug each of them.

((BTW, C'nor, had a different idea for the warsinger's friend, a sort of melee spellcaster more based on a mummy. Which would give the duo an amusing Monster Mash sort of feel.)) Hey, you missed Kallista chatting up some cute girl!

If this hugging includes the (as yet unnamed) Rainbow Puppy, he happily licks Talina's face. If not, he whimpers slightly, desiring attention.

"Move it along, ladies. We need to keep the gate area clear. There's a park a few blocks in that direction if you want to chat." a bored guard says to the group.

It didn't, though she will pet him when he whimpers.
In any case, while Talina looks rather intrigued, she holds off on asking questions for now, instead heading off towards the indicated park, though she's quite willing to let Nycca and/or Kallista choose somewhere else to go if they prefer.

The puppy, naturally, will go wherever Kallista goes (especially since I think she's still riding him).

I wish we could have met before all this happened. Forget that, I wish it had never happened. You didn't deserve to lose your parents the way you did, and I pray that you'll get them back. And I still feel that you don't deserve the punishment you are facing now, but I know you disagree. What's important is that you are doing what you know is right.
I read what you wrote about Faith. It hit me hard, because it put into words something I've never been able to articulate. All my life, I've been in conflict between my Religion and my Faith. I've always chosen Faith, and always felt sure that I was damned for it. But perhaps I should trust my heart more. (Or rather, my gut - my heart is artificial.) There are people who are alive now because I violated my religion to bring harm and death to others. Was this the right choice? When I watch Jyarl playing with his daughter, I think it must be. But even if it wasn't, I would gladly sacrifice my soul to keep her safe.
Your words have given me comfort, both the public and the private words. I hope I can return the favour by telling you that I believe - I have Faith - that you are a good man. I have Faith that you will find your way home again. Your parents are proud to have you as their son, and if you were a son of mine, I would be equally proud. Certainly as your friend, I am proud of what you have done and what you are doing every day.
Never forget - Cassius Godlark is a good man.
With love and prayers,
Missy Halifax

Jyarl's Place
About dinner time, when Jyarl has just gotten off his shift, Gorgutz barks excitedly and runs to the door, tail going like mad. A few minutes later, Missy and Jefferies arrive from their trip to GLoG, both of them with wet hair, and Missy toting a bag with their wet towels and swimsuits.
Jyarl grins as soon as he sees his little girl and the woman he's currently sharing his life with. He'll stoop down quickly to pick up little Jefferies and give her a kiss before giving Missy another. "Did you two have fun?" He asks, the smiling in his eyes as well as his lips.

"I haded the bestest day! I meeted a catboy and a goblin girl and some halflings and I learned how to swim and I went down the big slide a hundred times and Master Chief wasn't scared at all!" Jefferies says.
Missy kisses him back while her neural net downloads the pictures and a couple of videos of the day onto Jyarl's laptop. "We had a great time, and Jefferies behaved beautifully."
Jyarl can't help but grin at Jefferies' summation of the day and gives her another kiss before letting her down so Gorgutz can sniff her all over with a pleased yowl. "Go ahead and change into your pjs. Dinner's almost ready." He tells Jefferies before slipping an arm around Missy's waist. "I'm glad it all went well."

"Okay!" Jefferies announces cheerily, but gets distracted by rough-housing with Gorgutz instead of doing as she's told.
"I spotted a place we can hide a car, not far from the Riftline station," Missy says quietly to Jyarl. The plan is for her and Jefferies to be at GLoG the day the adoption decision is due. If the decision goes against them, Jefferies will be nowhere near anyone who can try and enforce a change in custody.
Jyarl doesn't mind Jefferies being distracted this time around, but after Missy speaks, he smiles gently to her and sets a finger on Missy's lips. "Then we'll do that, but lets worry tomorrow. You had a good day, so lets make it a good night too, alright?" He asks softly as his other hand squeezes her side gently.

Jyarl ushers Jefferies to her room, Gorgutz in tow before dragging Missy over to the couch to watch the video with him. He doesn't feel any shame in being able to express his closeness with her, even if he idly wonders who won the betting pool this time around.

"No! Dun watch it till I's back!" Jefferies insists. Missy snuggles against Jyarl while they wait. Jefferies gets changed in record time, racing back while still pulling the top on. She climbs up and plops herself down between Jyarl and Missy. "Okay! Now!"
Missy starts the video. It was filmed by her own cybernetic eyes, watching from the lake as Jefferies goes down the slide. The little orc hesitates a bit at the top - it was her first time going alone - but once she is in motion, she shouts in excitement, her arms in the air, as she plunges into the lake. Her water wings pull her above water quickly, and she paddles her way over to Missy.
"See? I can swim now!" Jefferies announces proudly. "But I has to get a red suit cause Butler says dats how to swim fast!"
Jyarl smiles as he settles his arm around Jefferies too and as he watches the video, his heart begins to feel warmer than usual. Once it's over, he leans down to kiss the top of her head. "You did wonderfully. And yes, "Red onez go fasta' " He quotes before leaning across her to give Missy a soft kiss, wanting to tell her that she's done well too.

Tovpir the stone scorpion returns from his adventure in Inside. He looks stressed and confused. On his way he seems to avoid any eye contact with others and looks down on the floor.
As he enters the Rec center he looks around for the people he know. He needs advice and hopes they can help him.

Someone is calling remnant, non-emergency line. If they have automatic call tracking, they will see it's from a residence in Inside, one of the better neighborhoods.
"You've reached Remnant. How can I help you?" A woman's voice can e heard on the other end of the line. It's a fairly low voice for a woman, and has a melodic quality to it.
"Hello, I have a question to start with. How long is a person supposed to be missing before they're considered a missing person? For official purposes, anyway?" It sounds like a female voice, not very old.
The woman blinks. "If it's been long enough that you need to ask that question, I wouldn't worry about exactly how long it's been. Is someone missing?"
You can't exactly blink over the phone... anyway, the girl replies, "My parents. They were going out for a few days, just leaving me home alone for a bit. They were supposed to be back two days ago. I haven't heard anything about them or from them since they left. I'm worried."
She didn't have to see the blink for it to happen.
"Okay, don't worry, sweety, we'll find out where they are. Can you give me their names, and yours too? Where did they say they were going? And how old are you?"
"I'm Gerri Henthimous. My parents are Michal and Sarah. I'm sixteen. They were going out of town for their anniversary. A one night stay in a suite, some hotel in riverside. They were supposed to be back the next day, but they didn't, I can't get their cells, and they're not answering their E-mails... I don't know what to do."
