[Nexus] HALO 174: Just when you think you're not in Kansas anymore, turns out you are

[DoomITP]

Grant moves to give Lelli a hug.

It'll get better. It might not go away but it'll get better. I promise.

[C'nor]

Lelli seems to handle that better, gently returning the hug, and nodding.

"I know. It's just... Having the memories I do, especially with all the cares and secrets that aren't mine to share weighs on me sometimes. Which was the whole point of taking them on, but..."

[DoomITP]

Well if you actually faced 'em you've got more guts than most people I know.

[C'nor]

"Those I can, I have. The rest... Well, they can't be put right."

[DoomITP]

Grant probably continues hugging Lelli.

Some things can't be fixed.

[C'nor]

Lelli certainly has no objection to that, and nods again.

"Not much consolation when you're the one who broke them, though."

[FireFox]

My characters are all available to anyone who wants to interact with them!

[Beans]

Sioda, feeling better, goes to find Angela. Something from that meeting on the beach has been nipping at her...

[DoomITP]

Firefox's characters could meet Bobbie who is happily walking down the hallway.

---

Believe me. Been there, done that. It does get better.

[FireFox]

Angela is sitting on a couch in the living room, looking at pictures in a magazine. She quickly hides it behind her back when she sees Sioda walk in. Oh, hey sweetheart! What's up?


Hm, it might be interesting to have Agatha meet Bobbie. Agatha is a young woman with long black hair who just happens to have fangs and a thick demonic aura.

[Beans]

Well, it's...
At the beach, I sensed what I thought was... Kyne. I didn't bring it up because that'd just be throwing molotovs into the fire, so to speak...
Was she there on your bidding?
She sits next to her, looking a bit concerned.

[DoomITP]

Agatha does indeed get to meet Bobbie, who is like one might expect. Tall and gorgeous with dark hair.

Hi!

[InyutheBeatIs]

Chris can be available for things. Maybe plot things, maybe just other things that will lead to foreshadowing of plot things, nobody knows.

[C'nor]

((Beans, I think it's your turn in the DFI?))

She rests her head on his shoulder, smiling weakly.

"I suppose..."

[FireFox]

Angela frowns coldly. No. No she was not. And I don't know why she was there, because that was all none of her business.


Agatha looks Bobbie over. Closely. Hey.

[DoomITP]

I know so.

Grant says reassuringly.

--

Once Agatha gets close enough she'll probably noticed first off Bobbie's thirteen point star necklace.

Need a magnifying glass?

Bobbie says, dryly.

[Beans]

Oh, I see...

Er... What was that magazine you were reading?
She hopes to change the subject, not really sure what to think of Kyne's having been there.

[FireFox]

I meant Agatha was staring a little, not that she was literally close to Bobbie.

Um. Need a poultice for the black eye I'm about to give you? The possessed woman tries to go for a witty comeback but settles for a threat.


... Porn. Angela lies believably while pushing the magazine under the couch cushions.

[C'nor]

Lelli doesn't reply this time, instead simply closing her eyes and relaxing, comforted by the closeness of her new friend.

[Beans]

((I bet it's wedding dresses~))
.... That makes sense.
Though you don't really have to hide it from me---unless it's something really really weird in which case feel free to hide it from me. I've seen quite enough girls licking doorknobs in real life, thank you.
---
Carrie might find Chris!

[DoomITP]

Why would you do that?

--

Grant doesn't say anything either, happy to stay with Lelli for the time being.

[C'nor]

Lelli snuggles close to him, and, unless something would prevent her, soon falls asleep.

[FireFox]

((It totally is~))

Oh yeah. Really weird stuff. Patty gave it to me. You know how she is. Haha! Ha! Probably, like, pictures of farspawn covered in deadtime while looking at psions reading the minds of clerics thinking dirty thoughts about farspawn covered in deadtime.


Who knows! Agatha shrugs. So whatya want?

[DoomITP]

Lelli is free to fall asleep though Grant stays up to watch a movie.

--

I just wanted to say hi.

Chris can be found in the library again, once again staying away from the books that aren't screaming for blood and souls.

[Beans]

Ugh, seriously. Can't trust that girl for a minute around my psi-crystals. Or my shoes for that matter.
((That sounds like the least sexual and most confusing "erotic" material since, well, doorknobgirl.))
So, besides looking at your scary galpal's scarier ladymags, how've you been?
---
Carrie waves.
Hi hon!

[FireFox]

You already did that. So if you "just" wanted to say hi, what are you still doing here? Agatha looks at Bobbie like she might be one of those "slow" people everyone else teases for acting dumber than the time the village idiot traded a gold coin for two silver coins, which he then traded for three copper coins because 3 > 2 > 1.


I've been all right... Have you been feeling better?

[DoomITP]

I dunno. Maybe have a conversation.

[InyutheBeatIs]

Chris looks up and smiles back at Carrie. "Hey there. How are you doing?"

[Beans]

I'm good! How're you?
She trots over to hug him.
---
Sioda smiles.
I'm feeling great, thanks! It's like my mind had its glasses cleaned, except normally minds don't have glasses that are all mussed up with Carrie's exes.
She giggles a little.
