Take a walk, go for a jog, scream at something, I don't know. If you really feel like you need to hit something, just don't use your head to do it, Bat.

-

For what? Tam muttered. You didn't do anything.

"Yeah, probably because it's hungry."

Actually, that was a great point.

"I should probably feed it . . . do you think it's old enough to eat something besides milk?"

“Well, it feels good.”

He felt a little better after arguing with her, though. He should probably go hug Tam.

“I know…”

“We really need to stop getting covered in blood”

“Yeah,” she agreed.

“Yeah,” she agreed

“I’m gonna wash off. Will you be okay up here by yourself?”

She smiled. 

"Yeah, I'll be okay." She reached up and gave him a tiny peck, then blushed.

His cheeks went red, and he walked out of the cabin to the shower towards the back

Still.

Then what are you sorry for?

Five curled up on the seat.

Still.

He stuck his tongue out at you and then started back towards Tam.

“I’m just sorry. You look sad…”

He came back after about 10 minutes, walking over and sitting in his seat.

She swallowed. She shouldn’t be caring about this. It wasn’t real— it was only her. 

She glanced around. 

The alone mirror felt even more abandoned, especially since Rose was right. 

The mirrors appeared to go on forever in both directions. The floor repeated, though - a particular pebble in the same spot over and over. 

Hmm. The fact I'm this good at physiological warfare is a little alarming. (Bat is wrong, actually - Rebus would love it if Tam and Bat claimed Antagonist, thus keeping it out of Malevolence's hands)

One of the trees patted him on the head as he walked past.

-

I did this to myself. You shouldn't feel bad for me.

Oh, really? Interesting . . .

Let's be honest though, I highly doubt they'd be capable of even trying to be that evil

Rose bit her lip. 

“Buck up. You’ll be okay.” She stepped away, feeling like an intruder having seen that. Even though that had been her.

Bat was sorely tempted to set you on fire. He kinda wished he could. Though he did think in the back of his mind that it was kind of nice to be cared about. 

-

“Well, I do.” Spren shrunk and sprouted several legs, crawling down to her shoulder. 

@Dragonheir

Symbol appeared near him. 

“It seems your plan is going well. Swimmingly, even.”

That would be much less helpful to him, but still rather amusing.

The reflection looked more hopeful, getting close to a shy smile. 

Rebus smiled. "This one, at least. Effectively I've made every choice they could make benefit me."

Bat is the antithesis

I could see Tam tho....

or Cricket... 

to justify saving their friends

He smiled back. “You should really wash that off,” he joked, pointing at the blood on her shirt and hands

. . . A little violent, but okay. I'll leave you be now.

. . . But why?

That is true . . .

Tam did recently make a decision like that (which has led to her current state)

She smiled at her reflection, then moved away into the mirrors again.

“Mmm. Quite clever of you.”

“You better,” he muttered.

“Because I do,” Spren replied. “If it helps… I think you made the right choice. Rebus… cares. At least to some extent.”

Sorry. Bye.

That's what I thought, too. But then . . . now I feel awful.

He laughed softly. “Go clean up. I’ll be good here.”

“Mmm. Quite clever of you.”

She quickly ran into another mirror, which manifested a reflection pointing a sword at her. Get out! Go away! I don't need you! the reflection growled - more a impression than a sound, but angry just the same. 

"I did have some help, though the credit should probably go to my Author, who as far as I know has no magic swords to enhance his planning."

Right, okay, uh . . .

"I'll be right back," he said, gently setting the panther cub on a wide branch.

Then he vanished.

She stared at the cub, absolutely petrified.

Holt, meanwhile, was hopping through the trees and growing some very special vines in their branches.

He reappeared after a few minutes and picked the cub back up.

"Okay, done. Hopefully we'll have something for you to eat soon . . ." he told the cub in a soft voice.

It purred. 

Corysande squeaked. “You’re crazy.”

"Nah, just trying to take care of this little guy," he said as he scratched the cub's head.

“What happens when it grows up and tries to eat us?”

“What happens when it grows up and tries to eat us?”

"It won't try to eat us if it doesn't see us as either threats or prey."

Bat set a tree on fire. 

“So there. Don’t correct my… my… not proper talking.”

Spren tapped her neck with a leg. It felt light and slightly tickly. “Well, take it from someone who knows. It’ll all turn out fine. It’s not like we’re looking at a possible extinction event,” she consoled.

“Shut up, dummy.”

Symbol grinned. “That’s very true. And a very interesting thing to say. Credit to your Author, then.”
