Through The Living Glass She/They Posted February 27, 2025 Posted February 27, 2025 1 minute ago, Halcyon The Only said: Bat hesitantly followed. “Sure.” - The woman screamed and ran. The rest of the people woke up and ran as well. He slid down into a dark tunnel, where Tam was waiting with her flashlight pointed down a tunnel. Told you there were some caves systems 'round here somewhere. C'mon! She started walking down one of them. - Crags of rock began to push their way out of the ground with random, jerking, splitting, shifting motions and formed jagged shapes. Similar formations emerged from the walls and ceilings of the cavern.

Similar formations emerged from the walls and ceilings of the cavern. He eyed the caverns. “You’re sure?” He whispered. “It doesn’t feel safe…” - After several minutes, the area was clear. But it didn’t last long. A huge group of troops surrounded Utility, toting cannons and catapults and guns and all kinds of things. Almost everything they had was Nullite. They opened fire immediately. 5 minutes ago, N̶̝̦͝u̶͇̠͒́l̷̺͇͔̩̯̆͜l̸̾̿̓̚ said: “For all you blame me, at least you still seem to care” “You’re still my son.” Five came out.

Also "Maybe. I've been told I'm very... different from before" He turned and looked at Five, seeing she was finished. walking back to shower and coming back out with her after about 20 minutes He walked back out to his father, hoping Five would follow. "Can I ask something?"

But it didn’t last long. A huge group of troops surrounded Utility, toting cannons and catapults and guns and all kinds of things. Almost everything they had was Nullite. They opened fire immediately. It'll be fiiiiiiine. 'Sides, there's no Nullite, here, so I can get us out whenever. - Utility was surprised by the primitiveness of their weapons. They used the rock to their advantage, making it becomes more fluid as it rose up around them like the tentacles of some great beast. They blocked the projectiles and quickly dispatched of the machinery by smashing with the stone appendages. "Is that all?" they asked, voice carrying to everyone throughout the cavern.

We'll be fine. - Utility shook their head. Perhaps . . . playing the part of power-hungry Narrator would really sell it. "Why would I leave you alone? You've cowered down here for centuries, claiming to be immune to Narration and growing comfortable with your Nullite-based technology, but look at you! Unable to stand against me in the slightest. I think it's time someone showed you what you really are." They lifted each of the soldiers into the air with thin stone tendrils. "You are weak, and you are powerless against me," they growled. "That is all you are, all you have been, and all you ever will be." Edited February 27, 2025 by Through The Living Glass

TwinStorm He/Him Posted February 27, 2025 Posted February 27, 2025 47 minutes ago, Halcyon The Only said: She snorted. “You’re cute. Come on, let’s get these soldiers back into shape.” "Rose... I'm telling the truth. You know what, fine. C'mon. Let's go." 40 minutes ago, Through The Living Glass said: She just laughed in his mind. Relax, I'm fine. It's kinda like a slide. She peered into the darkness around her. You wanna adventure a little? - He raised a hand for dramatic effect, and the lights in the cavern began flickering. The phone in the woman's hand shattered, bits of glass and metal lodging themselves in her hands. After all, their tech couldn't be completely made of Nullite. She pulled it out of her hand? lol - They all reappeared in a cozy cabin on a snowy mountaintop. There was a kitchen well-stocked with food and a living room, as well as a lit fireplace and enough rooms for them all to stay in. Another note appeared. Sorry for the short notice. I'm not sure when exactly this will blow over, but you should be safe here. If there's an emergency, or you need anything, contact me the same way. - Ava An identical blue orb appeared in the air. P.S. Bat and I are fine- sorry for disappearing yesterday. Utility smiled at the boy from afar, but once again, there was no emotion behind it. "Hello, Flax," they said, and though the sound traveled it sounded as though they were standing right next to him. Flax looked on in horror. The Narrator knew him. It couldn't be that he knew his... No. There was no way. He was stuck here, and couldn't fight back. Yes, you can. whispered a small voice inside his head. At the cost of my life, he thought grimly. "Who... who are you?" he managed weakly.

One of them began to sob, and the other whimpered like a broken record. She smiled and bent down to pick up a shiny blue rock. Yeah! Just darker. And wetter- is that a word? @echo74! You're up! - Utility growled in disgust and tossed the two aside, then chose two more and asked the same thing.
