She scowled at him. 

He made several faces, evidently not paying attention. His glasses were lit up, somehow.

“They’re sharp! And they breathe fire!”

He let go of her, but kept her hand.

The scientist was thoroughly terrified. 

"I doubt you'd be able to claim Protagonist, then. Antivillan, maybe, if there's such a blade, but I'm afraid many of the characters populating the Thread would be unable to see you as anything more than an aggressor."

Aden picked her up, tilting his face away so she wouldn't punch him. @Through The Living Glass

*snorts*

She set Jay down in a forest full of WAAAY oversized trees. 

"Home," she said happily. 

"...I see." 

The scientist had run and was still running. 

Bat jumped, yelped, and pointed a Notblade at him. 

wait who hugged who 

was that you hugging me or Cricket hugging rose 

Rose eyed him, but took his hand. 

It moved slightly faster.

She was there, watching.

Holt reappeared.

He waited for a second, unsure what to do, then cleared his throat.

Cool.

Eventually they arrived at the town. All was quiet, and there didn't seem to be anyone around.

. . . Where is everyone? Tam muttered to herself.

-

"Wonderful," she muttered sadly, then followed him.

Bat was wondering the same thing. 

-

It was a very nice aircraft, with chairs around tables and such beautiful commodities.

She left go of his hand and poked her head into a few houses, shops, etc . . .

They're just . . . gone, she said worriedly.

Irie sat at one of the tables.

". . . Who's piloting this thing?"

4 minutes ago, Kajsa said:

She jumped. “Oh! Hi.”

"Hey . . ." he said hesitantly, "I got something for you."

"Thanks." he whispered. 

“Sure.” She pulled back and ruffled his hair. She grinned— his hair was quite ruffly.

“That’s…. bad.”

Aden picked a book from the batter bookshelf and plopped down at a different table. “Starlight, I think.” 

He flipped the book open and vanished into it.

He startled at first, but quickly relaxed, though his cheeks were still scarlet.

Definitely.

She kept looking around.

Where did they go?

-

"Starl- ADEN!"

She rushed over to the book.

"Uh- uhhhh . . . Aden?"

Irie was at a loss for words.

She sure didn't want Starlight flying but she also had no idea what'd happened to Aden, so . . .

She closed her eyes and ignited him. 

Wait, how? Isn’t she tied up in a web?

She looked surprised and flushed. “Wh—really?”

"Uh . . . yeah. That's why, um- anyway, here."

He tossed a little red flower down to her.

[TwinStorm He/Him]

Amethyst closed his eyes. It blocked out the brightness, at least a little bit. He lay uncomfortably against the wall, trying to shift into a comfortable position.

He sighed, opening his eyes, and stood up. He was in the corner of a massive room, with vaulted ceilings, that happened to be entirely empty, and glowing white. 

He felt at his pocket, glad to find his pencil there. The one thing he had. His pencil. It had come to him, almost a month ago, he thought. It was hard to track time in here, though.

He turned to the wall, and scrawled there. Where the roses did reside. Poetry. Just another line of poetry. All around the wall was covered with similar scrawling. It kept him entertained, since he couldn't get out of this room.

He had been here for as long as he could remember, and it was torture. The vacant floor, the blank white walls, now covered with pencil marks, it was a prison.

Holt was asleep again.

She shrugged. "What kind of stuff do you like?"

Amethyst turned, startled. Wha... what was going on? Nothing ever happened here! Could this be... could it be like the pencil? He lept to his feet. "Hello?" he said, his words slow and deliberate from long disuse.

She handed it a pinecone.

She caught it and grinned. "...thanks. It's beautiful."

You mind if Null joins btw? Dunno if you saw what I added to the last post 

The person's head snapped up. It was a young girl, about his own age because obviously with short, curly black hair and pale skin.

"H-hi. W-who are you?"

A human being. Somebody... like him. That had... he jumped back. "Are... you real?" he whispered softly. "I'm... not dreaming, again?" he often dreamed about other people, men in black cloaks, mostly, but never this girl.
