That might be good, he admitted, after trying and failing to stand. She didn't leave the house, did she? 

She put a hand on his chest and pushed him back down gently.

No. She just went into her sewing room.

She left and came back with the medicine.

He took the medicine, swallowed some of the pills, and smiled at her. Okay. Good. Thanks, Tam.

"No. I just want a pineapple." 

Okay. Good. Scud, we're gonna have to be a lot more careful. 

He shrugged, and got him a pineapple.

He was ecstatic and hugged them both. 

Rose snorted.

His expression went blank. He tried to sit up, but couldn't move. "I- I can't feel my arm. I can't move." he said, panicked. "Why can't I move?"

Violet turned to look at him. "What I give can be taken away”

“You fixed him?” Aden asked, trembling with rage. 

Five was also trembling, but with terror. She hugged Starlight harder.

"Not fixed. Improved."

He started trembling, but still didn't have the control to move anything. "Monsters, all of you"

Five started sobbing into his shoulder. 

Aden pounded on the glass. “Where are you taking us?”

She turned to lock eyes with him. "Our compound. Hope you guys like crappy food"

Snow got up from his nap and came and hugged Tam’s knees. 

“Hi, Ava!” He said happily.

"Aw, Snow! Hey!" She bent down and hugged the little boy back fiercely.

"How are you?"

“I’m good,” he said happily. “Is Bat okay?”

”I’m good, bud. Just tired.” He reached out and ruffled his little brother’s hair.

"Don't worry. We won't experiment on them anymore. Well, maybe Starlight. But you and Irie are fair game"

@Through The Living Glass

Her head jerked towards Violet.

Rebus smiled. “You ask very interesting questions; we should do this regularly. A human being human depends on how you define human. Defined as a homo sapien, it would be genetics. But I assume you’re considering this more psychologically than taxonomically.” 

His organs were suddenly replaced by a pipe organ, which cheerfully played circus music for a few seconds before exploding. Despite the smoking hole in his chest, though, he was uninjured. 
Meat removed the blade, looking down its length in confusion. He tripped, ending up on the ground with his head in his hands and Nonsense on his neck. 

“I am supposedly an artificial Ennuller core surrounded by a computing substrate unconsciously modified through Ennulling. I compute in Silence, Ennulling electrons out of existence and sending the resulting electron holes outwards. This causes the sparks, which I can modulate but not stop. My creation was seemingly unintentional and non-replicable, and though impressive conceptually presents a liability, given I am unsure how to utilize Ennulling externally or practically.” 

So you are a computational core? asked the Ennuller with some interest.

“That’s what she called the world— universe.”

She nodded and stood. 

Qodi shrank. As she shrank, Gail gradually felt her own strength returning. Qodi did not take back any of the wounds. Or the pain. 

“She’s my bondmate,” Gail explained. 

She frowned at it.

Bat walked closer to Tam. 

“Quite. As far as I can tell, humans wither when not driven with a cause. Is that perhaps the model for humanity, or is there more?”

Since this all occurred slightly before dudeguy fell from the sky, Gail hesitantly stood up and made her way to the stand. Hopefully that was what she was supposed to do. 

"Gale!" boomed Selppaenip. "Is this man your leader?"

He gestured to the Great Wizard.

Subversion hurried to the door. "Are the students through here?"

 

A row of students peered back at her curiously.

Students, said the Ennuller, this is Subversion. She is a Narrator who has volunteered herself to be practiced upon.

16 hours ago, NameIess said:

"Not even into the World of Dreams? There's not exactly anyone living in there." The Dreamsmith said quizzically.

Gail did not seem to notice. It was possible that she was not even there anymore.

@Halcyon The Only did Gail leave the trial?

Tear through itself? Queried Nameless. You mean using its own essence?

A man in priestly robes walked down the street towards Tam. He bore a massive book gilded with gold upon his back, and he was looking at Tam and Bat with a most serious and disapproving expression.

@Halcyon The Only

Onyx blinked. "I... well I suppose I could..."

“You’re sick,” he seethed.

"Where's everyone else?"

Her head jerked towards Violet.

“They’re napping. Except River and Fox. Fox is at Betti’s house. And River is reading. And Dad is working, and Mom is seeing, and Moss is at the university.”

She smirked. "You sound like Starlight. How you you like to undergo the same treatment and become the seventh?"
