Fine, if it's the only think that will convince you... but did you even consider asking for help? Tam grinned. 1 hour ago, Halcyon The Only said: He broke down into sobs. “Nobody loves me!” Bat reorganized his bag again, glad to see that he hadn’t lost anything at all. Bat frowned. He wasn’t sure that would have been the best idea, given Tam’s aversion. 1 hour ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: “I don’t know… it’s just being here, it brings up old memories, bad memories.” 1 hour ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: Cricket paused. “Maybe not, but Stone was about to kill both of them unless I came! And… it’s up to Tam if you can join us.” "I'm fine with it," Tam said. 1 hour ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: “The worst.” he said, wiping his eye. “I came here after…” his voice broke. “after I first killed a man. After the first time I lost control.” 1 hour ago, Halcyon The Only said: “Oh,” Bat said. “After the first time the enforcers came after… us?” He’d kind of been traveling with them. 23 minutes ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: “Before. I was barely fifteen, and… there was a criminal who found me one night, when I was starving and took me to his house. I thought he was a good man. He wasn’t. He put some sort of gadget on me that restricts my powers and decided to train me as his “apprentice.” That man taught me how to use my knives, taught me to steal. A year later, after being told to kill someone, I wanted out. He wouldn’t let me… and there was a fight. I killed him, and several others. That day I showed myself I was a monster.” He took a trembling breath, then closed his eyes, trying to control his emotion. She put a hand over her mouth. "Oh, Cricket . . ." 20 minutes ago, xinoehp512 said: "It doesn't have to be." The ennuller shook his head. No. If you aren't going to return to the Silent Halls, then I'm coming with you. 15 minutes ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: “It’s the way of things. It taught me control, and… I haven’t let go of it, not even against Stone. Because if I did, I knew I wouldn’t be able to get it back under control.” 16 minutes ago, Halcyon The Only said: Bat reached out and rested a hand on his shoulder. “You’re doing great,” he promised. Just now, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: He took it, smiling sadly. She rested her hand on his. "Bat's right, Cricket. And anyway, you're doing the best you can. You've been through a lot, and I can't really blame you for anything." 1 minute ago, Halcyon The Only said: Bat felt a little better after giving him that. “Oh! We were gonna test your blood,” he remembered. “Rax. I’ll get a sample after dinner, unless it’s feeling a lot worse now.” "Oh yeah!" Tam said, worried again. How could she have forgotten?

He took her hand. “Thanks.” he whispered. “But I didn’t try with Stone. I didn’t give it my all. If you had died, or Bat, then I would be to blame.”

If I’d died, it woulda been my fault.” Prolly woulda deserved it, too.

Faunus peeked her head out the cave, raising an eyebrow at Moni tying up… herself? “Wonderful, what’s going on, and should I be seeing double? Did we find a long lost twin, or the evil copy of Moni?” She asked somewhat sarcastically, considering literally anything can happen here on TLT.
