*Sighs then nods*
*Stands up and continues floating off*

~

*Maiev sighs, then continues pulling Kara along*

~

Joal: (I...I still feel bad...)
*Sighs and cuddles with Santiago while feeling guilty*

*Gharn follows Izriel, still looking concerned for her*


*Cal puts a hand on Andrea's shoulder*
Cal: Hurt because of you? What do you mean?

Briefing on the other types of daemons we are likely to encounter?
*Follows along, snapping photos with helmet cam*

*Leo looks up at Scatty and Amy then stands up and nods*

*Rita quickly withdraws the offered hand, and follows after Izriel.*
*Her visor flashes periodically red as Rita thinks of the image of Dana exploding from her grenade launcher shot.*
Rita thinks: She's gone... that was a impostor... Dana is dead...

-----
*Rt stops pacing as his ocular systems start to flash red.*
*He makes a machine howl, that wakes Mason up (Who is resting inside of Sr.)*

*I'm breathing heavily and quivering with rage*
That Ghost is after me, I "left" Mengks service and joined up with Jim a few years ago. I was Mengsks personal doctor, and I know things about him that no-one else does. Things that would bring the Dominion to its knees. That Ghost is trying to draw me out and take me back to him

*spins Maiev around and kisses her forehead*
If a Pride Demon needs our help, then Languor is strong. And that means there will be plenty of other things you'll find flammable.

*Santiago kisses Joalia and gently picks her up before sitting down in the warthog with her in his lap*
S: (If you want, you can help me fix it. But you have nothing to be guilty about, it was an honest mistake.)

*Cal still looks worried*
Cal: Well whomever this ghost is, I think we can handle him


*Scatty nods then waves Quetz over*
Scatty: Quetz? Can we use your room for a bit?
*Quetz raises a eyebrow*
Quetz: Of course, but may I ask for what?
Scatty: That's not for me to say, Leo can talk to you later about it if she wants.
*Quetz eyes Leo, not quite realizing who she is then nods and turns*
Quetz: Alright, just don't break anything okay?
*Scatty nods and stands then holds her hand out for Leo's claw*

Flammability noted.
*The agents continue following*

*I shake my head*
No. You cannot. This is my burden to bear, no one else will suffer for my past

*Cal shakes his head stubbornly*
Cal: No, you're our friend. You've saved lives here. People here owe you and we should repay you.

*Sighs, and turns back*
I'm sorry. I'm on edge for some reason. Please forgive me.
*Sighs again*

~

*Maiev smiles at the kiss and gropes Kara*
M: I'll keep that in mind...

~

*Joalia nods and cuddles up with Santiago*
Joal: (Yes, I will help. Thank you.)

~

*Amelia follows Scatty and Leo silently*

People owe me nothing. I swore an oath to help others, I need no thanks for doing my sworn duty

*Scatty takes Leo's claw in her hand and walks to Quetz's room. It's a massive place with a giant nest-like structure in the middle, made of blankets, pillows and mattresses. *
*Scatty climbs into the nest with Leo and cuddles*


*Gharn follows Izriel silently*


*Cal nods*
Cal: I swore a similar oath. I'll help you, with this, or anything else.
*Looks deadly serious*

*Rita nods in understanding.*
Rita: It's okay! I'm not mad at you or anything... I forgive you.
*She sighs as she does this her visor gradually stops flashing.*

----
*Rt groans, and looks around wildly.*
Mason: Easy Rt.. you're okay.. and she is okay..
*Rt slumps slightly, but his ocular systems keep searching.*

...Your visor was flashing. And thank you.
*Stands up and sighs*
...
*Holds bit hand*

~

*Amelia sits outside of the nest and thinks*

*She nuzzles Scatty*

*Leo lays on the floor in Quetz's room*

Rita: Don't worry about it.. *Doesn't seem to notice the flashing.* It is? Gak, let me check it out.
*She takes off her helm starts fiddling with it but stops when she notices Izriel holding her wounded hand.*
Rita: Can I look at your wound? Let me dress it for you at the very least.

*Scatty snuggles Leo and gently strokes her snout*
Scatty: It'll be okay Leo...


*Gharn looks at Izriel's hand*
Gharn: Izriel, you should let yourself be treated....

*Leo looks at Scatty then curls up in a dragon ball*

*Leo lays there but doesn't sleep*

*Scatty snuggles next to Leo, still gently stroking her snout/wings/tail/whatever she can do to comfort her*
Scatty: (Please be okay...)

*I just sigh and pull my blood stained hand out of the wall and look at it*

[Kimmy carries on playing lego with the twins] ['Benny" sits and writes in a small book nearby] [Smiles cheerfully]

[Yarrick sits on the sofa and reads from a very battered small book with an Aquila on the cover] [Sips egg nog and looks pensive] [Pulls a small piece of paper out and writes on it] [Continues taking notes] [Puts feet up on the table]
... [Sees glares and lowers them quietly]

[Yvette opens the kitchen windows and turns on the extractor hood above the oven] [Begin working out how to use the coffee machine[

*Dria and Morgan are building a replica of a building they saw in a book of world history*


*Quetz smiles at Yvette*
Quetz: Good morning little one!

[Yvette looks startled] ..hello? [Smiles politely] I don't think we've been introduced. I'm Yvette, related to Samuel, and by extension, Sebastian. You are.. Quetz?
My mother told me of some of the people who lived here when she did.

[Yarrick finishes his homework and yawns] [Stretches and goes to bed, to nap] [Leaves a trail of those crumbs you get from rubbing stuff out all over the sofa cushion]

[Sam is hanging upside down from a tree branch in the forest, swinging from his knees on the limb]
[CBC is hanging next to him looking most unhappy] ...I don't like this date.
[Sam looks over] ...You said you wanted to learn about me, this is something I practice.
[Commissar looks tired, and his hat is still somehow on his head] I don't see what you get out of it though.
[Sam starts bouncing gently up and down]...
[Commissar grabs him and closes eyes] ASGDFHHGGH
[Sam grins]

*Quetz smiles and nods*
Quetz: Quetzalcoatl, The Rainbow Serpent at your service. It is a pleasure to meet you.

[Yvette salutes] I'm glad to be here and meet you too sir.
[Collects finishes coffee pot and pours a few mugs]

*Quetz waves away the title*
Quetz: There is no need for such formality here. You are welcome to simply refer to me a Quetz.
*Smiles kindly*
Quetz: How are you adapting?

[Yvette looks thoughtful] ...it's a very intense place to join.
I don't think i quite anticipated that.

[Sam lets go of the branch with his legs] [He and Commissar free-fall into a soft snowdrift]
[CBC sits up] ... ...
[Sam smiles innocently] ...Seemed the fastest way down.
[Commissar pushes Sam's head under the snow and starts bothering him with pokes to the ribs]

*Maria gets Dressed and heads out after a shower*

Morning... *yawns* ooh I smell coffee....

*waves to both *
Thanks Yvette .. *smiles and eyes shine a slightly brighter gold a second *

*sips coffee and wakes up properly*

...

Marla finishes her shift, waves and goes straight to bed*
