"How did you get here?"

Insa rolled her eyes and took the glass from him.

She stared at her reflection. The tiny little branches that reached up her neck.

Saar's words echoed through her head. 

I will always be a part of you.

"Oh."

"You okay?"

Jinx tapped the side of her head with two fingers. "P-parent-ts d-died. C-caret-taker s-said I-i d-don't w-work r-right u-up h-here." She said simply. 

Ash frowned. "For the record, I disagree with her. How did your parents die?"

"You okay?"

Insa nodded absentmindedly. She reached up and touched her neck.

"It looks kinda cool. Though I don't like where it came from. That kinda ruins it."

“I could get us out, in theory. But I wouldn’t be able to transport us again for another two days.”

Pic paused for a moment. “…if you think it will let us save Tal, then I’ll try. My powers tend to attract attention anyway.” He sighed. “Let’s finish the weeds first though.”

 “Yeah. We don’t want to cheat Pete out of our agreement.”

There was an abrupt crashing sound from inside, and Pete’s head pulled back from the window.

Invisibly, the narrator whispered to Elan, "Tal had burnt down two floors of the clinic upon losing control of his magic. Elan was shocked to have learned this.

 

“What? Blow up? Who said that?!”

Lundyn looks over at Pic. "Did we do something wrong?"

She blinked and stared at him, worry evident in her eyes. Pete couldn’t tell if it was genuine or fake, and honestly… neither could she.

Pic stood up and nodded, stil humming, hands still spiraling with green light. "May I get our things from the room first?"

“Leave,” he repeated, gripping the pitchfork so hard his hands shook.

“Decent?” Said Elan, hoping he was right. “What are we talking about?”

"you, me and @Weaver of Lies were tasked with babysitting tal for the time being. all we were talking about was more or less small talk. oh i was reading that book on mindreading you gave me. very interesting."

“Leave,” he repeated, gripping the pitchfork so hard his hands shook.

Pic's face took on a hard, but compassionate look, and his hands flourished. He hummed a speeding, rapid melody, and the staves went around his legs instead, glowing a bright red. 

"I will be getting our things," he hummed at Pete. His humming took on more of a practiced tone. "No harm will come to you, and there is no need for this." He dashed towards the door, almost faster than Pete's eyes could follow. Before he had a chance to react, Pic was already upstairs.

It  would be possible for him to try to hit him on the way down

She met Pete’s eyes. “Does the name Tal’in mean anything to you?”
