"The... oh dear, you can't remember him either? This is a mess. You don't remember the Knight? The super powerful Enuller who was involved in the almost-successful attempt to kill the Witherlord?"

 

The Ennuller frowned. I don't quite understand what you're talking about. There were several Ennullers involved in that attempt- it was a joint effort by many from our consultant division- but none unusually powerful.

The Dreamsmith cocked his head, glancing around the room. "Oh, I appear to be in the wrong place. Nice meeting you Tull, good luck on your quest!"

He promptly vanished.

@SpiritOfWrath

The Dreamsmith reappeared in Onyx's castle. "Are you there Onyx?"

"I am always here."

Rebus grins, inwardly wracking his brain for who this man could possibly be, given his backstory was effectively him appearing in a library as a blob of Narration. Perhaps it had happened offscreen? He’d have to use Abstract and retcon the event into reality. “I agree! When I touched the crystal nothing happened - perhaps I could do it now that I know.” 

“Hmm. Can you move me? The man - Rebus - tried to push me and his hand was destroyed. He says the ions I am making did that.” 

The Ennuller picked up the sphere.

"Yep." he sighed, running a hand through his hair. "Is Tam here?"

He pointed to a butterfly on the plate in front of him. “I’ll make her heal You when she wakes up.” 

Rose entered the room, looking disheveled and exhausted. “Me too, please. I don’t know what happened, but I can’t heal anymore.”

16 minutes ago, _Null_ said:

"I don't trust them. I trust you for some reason, still can't tell why. I actually can't remember the first time you showed up. But something in my heart says I can trust you, where as something in my head tells me there's something more happening in this place, and I can't trust them." he said, peering over at the camera

“It doesn’t matter, anyway.”

16 minutes ago, Through The Living Glass said:

Tam kept sleeping.

"Poor Five . . ."

The camera isn't exactly visible, but okay

Bat waited. 

-

“No kidding.”

After another fifteen minutes, Tam yawned and woke up.

Then she looked down and wondered why in the world she was on a plate.

-

Irie waited for Five and Starlight to continue talking.

"Wish I had that brownie still . . ." she muttered, suddenly remembering she was hungry.

"Trust. They'll get us back whether we trust or not."

Aden snorted and pulled a chocolate covered granola bar out of his pocket. "You want this?"

She looked up at him and snorted.

Are you still doing this, then? she giggled.

She shrugged and didn't look away from the monitor.

"I'm fine. Thanks though."

"I'm fine. Thanks though."

He turned red. "Aw, come on," he complained. "No! I wasn't--- I was--- no, you landed in my plate. Scudding butterfly. Now go fix Cricket and Rose." 

-

"You sure? I've got, like, five more."

Oh, toooootally. Yep, she grinned.

She healed Cricket, wherever he was currently. @TwinStorm

I can't heal Rose.

She turned to him.

"Prove it."

"Prove it."

Bat relayed this to Rose, who swore. 

"Why? What's wrong?" 

"Dislocated my shoulder or something," she muttered. He stood up and went over to help her.

He pulled five more out of his pockets. "Don't tell anyone."

I can get rid of the ash still, if she wants.

She grinned and took two.

She shifted uncomfortably and crawled onto the table.

Not much. Went for a walk . . . stuff like that.

"Yes," Rose said instantly. "Yes, please." 

Bat picked her up.

Aden opened one of the remaining four. "You think we should go in yet, or---"

Something on the dashboard started flashing. The perimeter alert.

"Fought a dumb monster for a dumb town and almost died," Rose griped. "A lot."

Tam looked at her curiously.

Is she serious? She knows it's going to get rid of her tattoos, too- right?

Irie swore and immediately called Lise.

"Where are they?"

“Careful, you’re starting to sound like me” he chuckled out.

 Believe me if i didn’t have to I wouldn’t, i would rather do this and rest. But I’m indoors tonight so I’ll be more frequent than last night at least
