Well . . . scud. Now she felt guilty it.

But . . . it was still hers. Still private. But that also made it her choice, no matter how much cajoling Bat did or didn't do.

Her expression softened a little, and she sighed.

The Narration making Bat tiny was revoked, and she hopped onto his shoulders again.

He sighed as well. Later.

His organization is a travesty, though it does fulfill a niche story-wise. And my Author is spending too much time thinking about them without doing anything about it. Like your brother - I heard they attacked him and got shredded. They’re minions - story wise they are expendable and thus cannot defeat anyone significant alone. 

"Hmmm." She scowled. "That's a bit of a problem for me."

Rose grabbed a book. 

Cricket leaned against a pillow. "What's it like... being with us? Me, Bat and Tam? Is it different... from before? Why stay?" he asked suddenly.

If they exist in this so-called history, then why are they not in our database?

Subversion frowned, eyes moving as if reading something from the air. "Does no one in your organization remember them? What about the Knight? Didn't he have a history with Grace?"

Rebus smiles. “I do indeed, though the purification process is frustrating.” He taps the floor with his foot, and it opens, a dream crystal the size of a basketball rising out of the hole on a pedestal. 

"Excellent!" Balitan pulled out some tweezers and began poking at the crystal.

She was quiet for a minute. "I dunno. I know you guys hate me... I just... don't wanna go back."

"I don't hate you." he said quietly. "I get that. The others too. And... look, we've all been from dark places, you and Bat, quite literally.  And we're all just trying to escape."

"Yes yes! Kiwi good!” 

" Good! I like kiwis. Lead on Eepy. I'll follow you."

He is just gonna stick with Eepy till something interesting happens.

Also, Eepy is wobderful, and has been a huge boon to me recently. Thank you! :sylheart:

Rebus begins drafting some experiment proposals and hypotheses for once Balitan become familiar with the substances. 

Xino's description of Prismitite is rather vague. Do you know much about it?

Right on queue, a portal opens and several mercenaries file out. 

You can each run a couple if you want. I'm thinking of giving personality to around three, then keeping the others as semi-faceless.

She gave him an apologetic look.

He picked her off his shoulders so he could hug her.

She bit her lip and looked away. "Yeah. I know. I'm... afraid I'll get dragged back, I guess. I'd rather get caught up in your Hell than go back to mine."

Eepy skipped along on the tree branches and picked a mango. 

A tree nearby rustled, but Eepy didn't notice. 

You're so welcome! I love her too :D

A rough looking woman saluted Rebus and Ruia.

"That makes sense." he said softly. "The monsters get hardest to kill the closer you are to them."

She rested her head on his chest.

It wasn't that . . . well, she did want to tell him, was the thing. It hurt to keep it all in like this, but . . . she just didn't feel safe doing it.

That wasn't his fault, of course. With everything that'd been happening the past week or so . . . it was hard to actually find a place that felt safe and secure.

Oh well. She'd probably find that feeling eventually . . .

He did wish she'd talk to him. 

But... he should probably wait until she felt ready. And try not to leave her alone.

A rough looking woman saluted Rebus and Ruia. 

As you may remember, all these people have at least one cybernetic vital organ. 

Among the group were a women in power armor, who had opened the gate; a grey man whose eyes had been replaced with lenses of some sort; a man almost entirely robotic, with sky blue crystals embedded in a set of sharp-looking wings, and a man in a cloak, with a bandoleer of several wands, crystals, guns, and grenades. The mercenaries sit down or stays standing and loom. Rebus nods to them, looking much happier now that the Ghost is gone.

She wore a rather minimalistic helmet with several different clicky-clicks. She also had a metal leg from the knee down.

She snuggled against him a little more.

He pet her very gently. 

"You should be a human for a second," he said.

“I just like the monsters I can deal with straightforwardly. I’m no good with the other kinds.”

"You should be a human for a second," he said. 

But . . . but then she would have to be big again . . . noticeable . . .

Really though, who else was around to notice her besides Bat?

She debated for a moment, than hopped down onto the floor and turned back into her regular self.

She looked . . . haggard. Her face was pale and dirty, her eyes gaunt with dark circles under them, the clothing she was wearing was rumpled and dirty, and her hair was tangled with leaves and dirt still stuck in it from the day before.

She hugged herself self-consciously, realizing how she must look, but couldn't muster the will to clean up.

The tree rustled again and something shot out toward Eepy.

"Me too," Rose agreed, levity dissolving. She collapsed back onto her bed, staring up at the ceiling. "Monsters make sense."

There was . . . still something nice about this. It still felt good.

She hugged him back.

Cadewyn burst into motion, sword appearing in his hand in a flash of light, a sword snapped void in the air. "Eepy! Get down!" He leapt forward, blue flames trailing him, attempting to interpose himself between Eepy and whatever was attacking her.

He picked some of the leaves and sticks out of her hair, then hugged her tighter. 

"My mom always says you'll feel better after a hot shower. I could find you a change of clothes if you want."

She squeaked and ducked behind the tree. A glowing golden snake latched onto Cadewyn's arm.

A clean change of clothes appeared on the table behind them, and she laughed softly.

Honestly, a hot shower sounded really nice . . .

Speaking of showers . . .

Be back in a bit :D
