Session Start: Sat Apr 06 11:15:38 2002
* Diana walks down the sidewalk in her Matrix-like gear, hair back in a braid, save for a few curls framing her face*
* Mitch , sprawled on a UWM in the training room, looks about as zen as a mountain goat... but his glasses are off, his head is leaned back, and his attention is focused inwards as he strains against the magical barrier
* FWL_MeRc is still erm... in places he shouldn't do changes char
* Diana comes up to the Asylum, resting her hand on the doornob and looking up at the building silently*
* Diaphead squeezes out of his room looking around, "i hate this american flats... they call that room? i call it a coffin"
* Diana sighs softly and pulls the door open, slipping in silently and looking around*
* Diaphead squeezes down the stares "feh... this or the allys... and i could run into sum bane there... so here's safer"
* Mitch 's auralessness - the vibrations he casts on the ether - wavers, held maybe six inches out from his body... he's obviously given up on the "sphere" concept and is working on the "personal shield" idea for now
* Diana blinks a little and looks up* Ah...hai I suppose...?
<Diaphead> Dia Duit mo Dáná
* Diaphead smiles
<Diaphead> and how are you
* Diana chuckles softly and shrugs* Ah...well enough...you?
<Diaphead> could be better... I'm thinking of becomeing a vampire though *chuckles slightly*
* Diana blinks and arches a brow* Ne...it's not all it's cracked up to be, I'm afraid..
<Diaphead> yea well it could help with the fact my room feels like a coffin...
<Diana> Gomen...perhaps there is a bigger place...*heads for the kitchen*
<Diaphead> or is that all movie hype?
<Diana> Movie hype...
<Diana> I've never slept in a coffin...I'd prefer not to either...
<Diaphead> ah... well moron gave me the biggest room, shes nice
* Diana chuckles softly and nods* Hai
* Mitch clenches his teeth and PUSHES, throwing his inner strength into it... the vibrations surge away, starting to balloon out into a sphere, barely large enough to contain him...
* Mitch suddenly cries out as the field collapses, snapping back in on itself... in essence, psychic whiplash
* Diana BLINKS and heads into the workout room* Mitch??
* Diaphead raises a brow
* Mitch is stumbling away from the UWM, shaking his head and holding it with two hands, muttering in rapid Spanish under his breath
* Diana cringes, reaching out to offer support..*
<Mitch> "...hijo de una HEMBRA! Azote maldito de la madre del dios..."
* Diana smirks a little* If I understood...I'd probably agree...
<Mitch> "...apesadumbrado. Gomen." He rubs his head slowly with a disgusted expression, sitting down with an unsteady thump on the mat. "Threw it out again."
* Diana nods a little and kneels by him* Hai...give it a rest for the night...
<Mitch> "You're telling me... motherf..." *lets it trail off with a sigh, before glancing up and smiling, wanly, sheepishly* "Hi, tomodachi. How's it?"
* Diana smiles wryly* Alright...besides the...overdose...how are you?
<Mitch> "Tired, sore, frustrated..." He shakes his head. "Gotta keep going. Don't mean it's easy."
* Diana nods* Hai...demo you don't want to burn yourself out...
<Mitch> "Better that than- yeah. I guess."
* Mitch pushes himself up, catches himself on her shoulder as he stumbles slightly. "...shimatta. Uh, you see my glasses?"
<Mitch> *they're on the floor by the machine*
* Diana pats his hand* I see tthem..just...stay here and I'll get them for you...
<Mitch> "Domo..."
* Mitch rubs his head AND neck, waiting
* Diana makes sure he's steady before snagging the glasses and putting them in his hand*
* Mitch brightens a little as they make contact, taking them and flicking them on. "Domo arigato. Sorry..."
* Diana chuckles softly* Nandemonai...don't worry about it...
<Mitch> "How was your day?" *heading off towards the kitchen, still not bright-eyed nor bushy-tailed but on his own two feet*
* Diana follows, shrugging slightly* It was alright...long, demo...that's to be expected...I'm thinking of making stir-fry...
<Mitch> "That sorta thing, you're, y'know, grateful for the boredom... when things get interesting, it's a bad thing, ne?" *pulls out a beer and pops it off, draining half of it in one go* "-that'd be great!"
* Diana chuckles and nods* Hai...*getting out stuff and starting to chop it up* Anything new and exciting happeneing?
<Mitch> .oO(Christ, that feels terrible.) "Not that I know of... still no holes in the walls..."
<Diana> This is good..
<Mitch> "Slogging through physics still. I think it's fighting back."
<Diana> Physics is evil...hai...not quite as material as the other sciences...
<Mitch> "Yeah..." *takes a swig* "...it's all 'an object in motion stays in motion' and 'mass over energy equals something or other', and then it'll just stick in a corner 'by the way, you can figure out the flash point of any substance with this simple formula'."
<Mitch> "I never know when it's going to throw something USEFUL in, so I've gotta, y'know, keep soaking it in..."
* Diana chuckles softly and nods as she cooks and stuff*
* Mitch shrugs a little, hitching himself up on the counter. "Got a lot to catch up on. Never had, had real school like you probably did..."
<Diana> Ne...I had school up to senior year of high school...never got to graduate, demo...it's enough...*smirks a little*
<Mitch> He nods, glancing over. "Is that when... things started happening?"
* Diana nods* Hai...*starts actually doing the stir-fry...making a lot of course* About...a month before graduation, I believe..
<Mitch> *damn STRAIGHT a lot... he nods* "I'm sorry you missed it..." *not really sure whether or not he should be sorry*
* Diana chuckles softly and shrugs* I don't mind, really...I was never one for school spirit or "traditional" things...
<Mitch> "Knew there was something about you I liked. Still... you must've had... y'know, things you left behind..."
<Diana> My dojo...and...that's really about it...
<Mitch> *nods, glancing in the approximate direction of the dojo they went to* "That same one?"
* Diana shakes her head* Iie...a different one...I used to live upstate...
* Mitch blinks, cross-referencing this. "...outside Manhattan?"
<Diana> Hai..
* Mitch 's world consists of two areas - the sorta leaf-shaped place marked Manhattan and the big vague dark place labelled EVERYWHERE ELSE
<Mitch> "Ever gone back there?"
<Diana> *smiles a little* Iie...
<Diana> Too much of a risk of being found...
<Mitch> He frowns a little. "By who? Tiernan's dead now... someone else?"
* Diana hehs a little* My father...
* Mitch nods slowly, remembering.
<Mitch> "...have you ever thought about confronting him?"
<Diana> On occation...hai...*Shrugs a little and serves food up*
<Mitch> "Domo... doushite iie?"
* Diana nods a little, sitting by him to eat, leaving the rest on the stove to stay warm* I have yet to get the courage up to do it...
* Mitch digs in - though slower than his usual pace, leaning on his lower elbows and watching her contemplatatively. "Why not go and take some of your friends? I'm sure some of us would come along... for, y'know, moral support. And to watch your back."
<Diana> Hai...demo...in the end it IS I who will need to speak with him...
* Diana smirks a little* Ne...of all the super-powered beings...demi-gods...deamons...elves...I've faced...he is the one that frightens me the most...a simple, cruel human...
<Mitch> He nods. "Well, yeah. I'm just worried... you gotta face your past or you'll be facing it every day of your life..." *muttered* "Trust me on that."
* Diana smiles wryly* Hai...I know...and I will one day...
* Mitch kinda half-smiles, bumping a free fist with her. "Lemme know. I been to Underhill now. I think I could handle a road trip upstate."
* Diana chuckles, returning the fist-bump* Ne...I don't know...there are red-necks more frightening than anything you'll find in Underhill...
<Mitch> *deadpanned* "Red-necks? I don't remember those from the Monster Manual..."
* Diana chuckles softly as she munches* They are beings far too frightening to make it into the manual..
<Mitch> "We could try holy water."
<Diana> Hmm...most of them are "good Christians", though...now...education and THINKING is the true lethal weapon...no more than two braincells a peice...
<Mitch> "...education? Well, we could- oh." He flicks off his glasses and rubs his eyes for a moment, preparing itself. "...we could pour it from a graduated cylinder."
* Diana chuckles softly*
<Mitch> "Sorry. I didn't, y'know, have any choice."
<Diana> I tend not to take bad jokes too seriously <G>
* Mitch chuckles, getting up for seconds. "You want some more?"
<Diana> Iie...domo...*streatches a littllle and leans back, folding her hands over her stomach*
* Mitch serves himself. "...I figured out holy water, and I got some, though I dunno how holy it's gonna be after having been swiped a few weeks ago. I can handle silver. I can do wood, I think. But what's it mean when it says '+1 or more'? You need to hit it twice?"
* Diana arches a brow* ...wakarimasen...you lost me...
<Mitch> "Some of the critters in the Manual... they say..." *scarfs and swallows* "...mrph, they say 'can only be hurt by +1 weapons'."
<Diana> Is this manual from some kind of roll playing game?
<Mitch> "I guess... it's the one Klork lent me for Underhill. He said to ignore all the number stuff."
* Diana chuckles softly* Hai...then it is probably from a role playing game...
<Mitch> He shakes his head. "I don't get it. People made a game out of Underhill?"
* Diana nods* Hai...mostly for bored kids and teens...
<Mitch> "People go there for FUN? Christ, the size of that... any of those, those monster things could've torn us apart if we weren't so... well, if we weren't the freak show we are." *shrugs, semi-apologetically*
* Diana chuckles softly* Ne...they don't actually go there...
<Diana> They make up characters and send them to a pretend Underhill or wherever...pretend to be those characters...
<Mitch> "You mean like a... book or something?"
<Diana> Hai...
* Mitch rubs his neck as he noshes, putting away an astonishing amount of food as always. "...just weird. I mean, people pretend to be someone they're not all the time... but for fun? In a place that they don't even know exists?"
* Diana shrugs* Confuses me as well...
<Mitch> "And the Manual's a sort of spotter's guide?"
<Diana> Hai...exactly
<Mitch> *shakes his head* "What's it mean by +1?"
<Diana> No idea...I never played them...I'd imagine there would be a key in there somewhere, though...
<Mitch> "It didn't have any rules... just all these different numbers. Maybe Klork'll know." *shrugs*
<Mitch> "Nani kore 'wakarimasen'?"
<Diana> Wakarimasen means I don't know...
* Diana nods a little* HAi...
<Mitch> "Oh, GOOD. I'm gonna tattoo that one on my forehead."
<Mitch> "It'll just, y'know, save time on everyone's part."
* Diana laughs* I suppose that's one way to do it...
* Mitch grins, cleaning up his plate and heading to the kitchen, starting the washing of dishes.
<Mitch> "...how're you feeling? I mean... how's your hand? Your back?"
* Diana follwos, bringing her own plate with* Well...my hand I can't feel, still...demo my back seems completely healed..
<Diana> How's your leg?
<Mitch> "Still got that numb area down the front of the shin... the ghost touches are kinda slacking off..."
* Diana nods* That last part is good anyway
<Mitch> He shakes his head. "It's weird... I've got this seam right through the middle of it. Think it's there to stay."
<Diana> Hai...that is strange...I suppose it is...at least you still have use of it though, ne?
<Mitch> "Yeah - I'm glad to hear your back's doing better..." He glances over his shoulder. "Feeling like your old self again? Young self?"
<Mitch> "Yeah..." He looks away, down at the dishes as he washes them, unable to meet her eyes."
* Diana shrugs a little, leaning on the counter*
<Mitch> "...I'm sorry."
<Diana> Nandemonai...everything will turn out alright in the end, I suppose...
<Mitch> "Hope so..." He sighs, flicking off his glasses with one free hand, rubbing his eyes with another. "I really do."
<Diana> Hai...you and me both...
<Mitch> "You got Sundays off, don't you?"
* Diana blinks a little and shrugs* On occation, hai...why?
<Mitch> "Just wondering..."
<Mitch> .oO(You had the PERFECT opening.) .oO(Yeah, and she's back with Mondo.) .oO(Christ.) .oO(Back off. She needs a friend.)
<Mitch> "Lemme know when you get done with the Pratchett... I can order 'em through the campus bookstore."
* Diana nods* Hai...I will..
* Mitch mutters something, touching his forehead more gingerly, probing it. "...frickin' whiplash."
* Diana hehs* Want to try pain killers?
<Mitch> "Iie, domo... they'll put me to sleep. I got other things I can do."
* Diana nods* Hai...gomen...that's annoying when that happens..
<Mitch> His lip twitches. "Think physics would make it worse... ugh. How do you tell when you're gonna go too far? How do you ride the edge?"
* Mitch dries off his hands and grabs Beer #2 from the fridge, popping it open.
<Diana> *smirks lightly* You need to reach the breaking point a few times before you know yourself well enough, I suppose...just...would not try it when you have important things to do...collapsing at an important time would be a bad thing...
<Mitch> He chuckles, taking a swig. "Yeah. You'd think."
<Mitch> "Domo for the stir-fry, tomodachi... wonderful as always."
<Diana> Hai...my pleasure...*smiles*
<Mitch> "So what're you up to tonight?"
<Diana> Hopefully relaxing...*chuckles softly*
* Mitch smiles in return, though he's always kinda sorta smiling around Diana... yeah, no matter how he tries not to, he's got it bad
* Diana streatches a little*
* Mitch laughs, leaning against the counter. "Yeah... and we know how likely THAT is around here..."
<Diana> My thoughts exactly...
<Mitch> "I dunno... how do you relax? I mean, in the specific sense. I've always just... thrown myself into my work."
<Mitch> .oO(And right after this conversation I'm gonna do it again. Some things never change.)
* Diana shrugs a little* Tai Chi sometimes...other times swimming and the hot tub...or just sitting and writing in my journal...I used to draw...demo...*shrugs a little*
<Mitch> He blinks. "You have a journal?"
* Diana nods* Hai...
* Diana shrugs* Figured I'd start keeping one...
<Mitch> "Sorry... I just don't see you as..." A small shrug. "I mean, nothing wrong with it..."
* Diana chuckles softly* I'm not usually the type...iie...just figured I'd try starting one a few days ago...
<Mitch> *nods* "Feel right?"
* Diana nods* Hai...when I'm in the right mood...
<Mitch> .oO(For the shit she can't talk about... damn.) .oO(Hey, no one said it was gonna be easy.) .oO(Yeah. I just wish I knew it was helping at all.)
<Mitch> "More power to ya, then." *toasts her with the bottle*
* Diana chuckles softly* Domo...
<Mitch> "Well, I'm gonna find something useful to do... good luck, y'know, relaxing..." Slight hesitation. "Drop in if you get bored, I'll try and keep you entertained." *grins*
* Diana chuckles softly* Of course...take care, alright...?
<Mitch> "Hai... you too, tomodachi."
<Diana> Domo...
* Mitch heads upstairs, holding the half-empty bottle to his forehead
* Diana hms...changes real quick into jeans and a sweatshirt before returning*
* Mitch edges his door mostly closed, setting the bottle by the milk crate as he sits down before the drafting board, picking up a clipboard of notes and connecting the dots on his own personal blueprints...
* Clear across town a storm starts to flare up in the sky from absolutely no weather patterns .. lightning happening more than it is scientifically possible..*
<Mitch> .oO(Just like putting a tumbler together again. The whiplash don't matter. Only the task at hand.)
* Diana...WOULD notice...if she were there <G>*
* The storm grows louder .. two clouds seeming to clash together .. green on blue .. the thunder slamming against building sides to fade only seconds before it crashes again*
* Mitch might notice, but he's dull and boring and more-or-less nonmagical and stuff
* Mondo_Gecko head bangs in his room to Rob zombie and them blinks, looking up*
<Mondo_Gecko> *electricity sizzles on his sholders for a second before he quietly calms it down
* Diana blinks and furrows her brows, reaching out to try finding Klorkie*
* Mondo_Gecko turns and races up to the roof
* Mitch , on the other hand, cheerfully remains clueless
<Klork> {{*nothing . few mental curses .. but otherwise the line is static*}}
* Diana stands, transforms and vanishes, reappearing flying through the air to search...following thunder 'n stuff <G>*
* Mondo_Gecko gets to the roof, trying to get a look at the thunder
* Two clouds can be seen across the city where buildings don't block them .. both dark and grey lightning flashing out at the other ... thunder ricocheting across buildings all over the city*
<Diana> <w> Oh man...*ducks down between the buildings, taking the shadows towards the clouds*
* the clouds seem to be lower, on the tops of a few buildings .. nearly touching as they clash, two steady streams of electricity snapping between the two .. one green .. one blue*
<Diana> <q> Angora...? *rises up, trying to get closer, turning into air itself*
* Mitch frowns a little, looking up at the sound of distant thunder... he touches his leg, rubs it gently. .oO(I'm not feeling... shit. So much for relaxing.)
* The air around the clouds seems thick, almost chokingly so. The friction between the clouds causing a great deal of static at least a good 50 feet surrounding it on all sides*
* HappyLittleMoron ...holds Brenna and the kids <G>
* Diana now has an afro...damnit...oh wait...not solid, NM <G> fights her way through the air, etherial eyes narrowed, trying to spot the combatants*
* Mitch yells, "Mrs. Happy?!", locking up his room almost out of habit as he goes looking for them
<HappyLittleMoron> Up here! *from their room*
* Mitch gets there. "Okay if I come in?"
<HappyLittleMoron> Yeah...
* Mitch pushes open the door. "Mrs. Happy, this ain't right... where'd you put the guns?"
* Klork can be seen in the blue field, eyes glowing as he fires electricity in a steady line that crosses two building tops....his teeth are bared and he's half hidden behind a air duct
* `Angora can be seen in the green field ... four building tops away from Klork, her own steady field of green electricity firing across at Klorks where they clash in the middle .. both of them struggling for the better hand..creating loud thunder with each gain either way
* Diana cringes and circles around to behind Angora...touching her soul stone to see if she can get ahold of whatever was possessing her before*
* Klork 's stream seems to gain on Angy's at that movement...it moves her way about ten feet..
* `Angora flinches, trying to concentrate on keeping her side while fighting to get Diana out of her head ..
* Diana keeps at it, eyes narrowed, a phantom behind Angora*
* `Angora growls, ducking beneath the air duct ..
* Klork staggers as his fires over her head .. his cloud remaining but is less static ... eyes glowing as they wait..
* `Angora growls, looking around and firing randomly ...electricity snapping out at any building in the way and causing rather unsightly damage .. the rest spinning off into space*
* Diana clenches her jaw and tries entering her head, litterally, like...spirit possession...*
* Klork blinks .. his cloud dissipating .. wondering what the hell Angy is up to ..
* `Angora growls, putting up a strong mental block .. thick with electricity .. aiming to get her out...still firing randomly .... lots of damage tothose taller buildings yep..
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO(Something's going on...)
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO(something to do with electricity...)
* Diana clenches her jaw, retreating, uhm...sorta...elecrified, not solid 'n stuff...*
* Klork shifts... brows furrowing when Angys cloud dissipates...
<Klork> <q> Crap .. *starts rooftop jumping to get in closer ..*
<HappyLittleMoron> Closet...
* `Angora grits her teeth, a portal opening behind her ... moments later she disappears into it
* Diana watches, then tries tracing...kinda semi-visible...all ghostly*
* Klork hops over onto that roof just in time to see the portal close .. his knuckles are bloodied .. he more than likely tried the chain lightning .. otherwise he's fine
<Klork> Shit..!
* `Angora leaves a small trail that dissipates as it goes .. leading westward .....
* Mitch digs into the closet - hopefully not running into Merc's Christmas presents - and retrieves the pistols, checking them. "Think we should take the kids down to the basement...?"
* Diana looks to Klork, her voice all ghostly* To the west...
<HappyLittleMoron> Well...we're all sheilded...but...sure...
* Klork glances up at Di ..* <q> Yeah ... damn. Hell of a day for me to go jogging on this side of town..
<Mitch> He hesitates a little. "...you know better than I do. I just... I know this storm ain't natural, and... well, underground's a good place to be... y'know? It's your call..."
* Diana smiles wryly* Things happen, bro...need a lift?
* `Angora reappears in chinatown ... in the appearance of a small and petite japanese woman, dark brown eyes slanted curiously as they look over the shops
* Klork nods
<Klork> Yeah ...
* Diana reaches a hand out for him to take, aiming to turn him into spirit with her, then to follow the trail...*
* Klork takes her hand to go with ..
* Diana...follows the trail with him! Sticking to it the best she can 'n stuff*
* `Angora pauses .. looking up to the air before side-stepping into an alley ... her form going to a simple grey cat with white belly, running quickly to the building tops .. hopping from one to the next when they're close enough
* Klork watches, brows furrowed ..
<Klork> <q> Where the hell did she go....?
* Diana shakes her head* <q> Don't know...what happened exactly? *continues on as best she can*
<HappyLittleMoron> Let's hea dinto the basement...*smiles a lil'*
<Mitch> "Okay..." He crouches down and gives Brenna and Iris a half-smile. "Been a while since we did this, huh?"
* Mondo_Gecko frowns and stays on the roof, watching
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO(I hope everyone's ok)
* Iris noddles*
<Klork> She just .. attacked .. next thing I know I'm absorbing her energy .. I could FEEL something trying to take me mentally .. fought back ... next I knew I could do EXACTLY what Angy's doin ..
* `Angora gets to the area of the asylum, slipping up to the roof in her cat form, tail twitching ...
<Diana> Great gods...*sighs* Wonderful...
<Klork> She's got another power .. I couldn't tell what it was, but it wasn't hers...it was borrowed...
<Mitch> "You heard what we said... we're gonna go down in the basement to wait for things to calm down, just like last time." He straightens up, opening the door for 'em all.
* HappyLittleMoron carries Brenna in one arm, leading Iris with her free hand
<Brenna> More mean people...?
* `Angora molds to form electricity .. sapping into the cracks and crevices of the asylum..
<Mitch> "Dunno, Brenna. I hope not. But if there are, we don't wanna meet 'em."
* Mondo_Gecko 's tail lashes slowly.. thunder cracks over head..the clouds above the asyulm darkening and going almost blue
* Mondo_Gecko growls softly
* Brenna noddles, huggling close to her mom*
* Mitch follows, backing 'em up as they head down into the basement
* HappyLittleMoron opens the door and heads in..
* `Angora 's form slowly molds to a human shape .. her own shape .. but pure electricity, eying Mondo as she stands before him ...
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO( It's that thing again! )
* Mondo_Gecko steps back a bit, growling
<Mondo_Gecko> You!
* Diana still...follows whatever trail there is? Iiiii dunnno <G>*
<`Angora> <echoey voice that isn't hers> You .. Shawn Murphy ... I've heard of you ..
* Mitch settles in at the corner, watching the stairwell leading down to the basement.
<Mondo_Gecko> *Electricity starts to run over him*
* Mondo_Gecko sneers
<Mondo_Gecko> whachoo hear
* `Angora seems to smile ... eyes glowing opposite of the electricity...
<`Angora> <ev> Are you guarding this place...??? *tilts her head*
<Mondo_Gecko> *w* You bet your fucking fine ass I am
* Down below.electricity is seeping into the wires .. lamps overload and combust as she travels through ... her form staying before him* <Ev> You are .. too easily distracted then, Shawn ...
* Mondo_Gecko hisses
<Mondo_Gecko> what? You think you could have me !?
* Mondo_Gecko laughs a little
* Diana brings 'em home, jaw clenched*
<Mondo_Gecko> Shawn Murphy bows to no female
* `Angora smiles, eyes sparking .. the electricity in the asylum sending things static ... yet it has not reached the basement 1 <ev> I simply say you are easily distracted ... while you watch me here ... I am destroying your home...
<Mondo_Gecko> O O!!
* Klork blinks
* Mondo_Gecko SCREEEES and slams himself aginast her
<Klork> Aw shit..!!!
* `Angora 's form dissipates and recreates when he goes through..
* Mondo_Gecko skids along the roof!
* Diana sets them down, eyes widening* K'so!!!
* Mondo_Gecko spins around
* Diana turns spirit again, trying the same trick as usual*
<`Angora> <ev> You cannot .. run into electricity ... *smiles ... glass on the windows shattering .. her trademark*
* Klork growls
<Klork> Shawn! Use electricity against her!! *stands, firing off at her ...eyes glowing equally*
* Mitch hears glass shatter, and puts two and two together... "...aw, hell. Sparky's back."
<HappyLittleMoron> Aaagh....
* `Angora grits her teeth .. faltering at the blow, then growling to snap out at Diana when she tries to get into her again...
* Mondo_Gecko concentrates and then the thunder booms from above again...and it starts to rain as lightening strikes him and he holds his hands out, throwing it against her
* Mondo_Gecko skin fades to blue...his eyes turning white
* `Angora reels ... lightning sapping from the asylum up to her slowly as she draws her energy back to herself...
<Mitch> Almost casually. "On the bright side, everything'll go back to normal once we kick her ass again..."
* Diana switches to air breifly, charged and stuff, eyes taking on a bit of a glow before turning back to spirit, stubbornly keeping at it...
<`Angora> <ev> I will .. destroy all ...
<HappyLittleMoron> Here's hoping...
* Klork fires again,aiming to add strength to Mondo's blow..
<Mitch> .oO(On the negative side, we've never walked out with everyone still whole.)
* Mondo_Gecko concentrates...shaking with adrenaline.. another almost deafening thundercrash above and he puts his hands up, gathering the lighting down into himself and almost glowing with the electricity
* `Angora grits her teeth, windows and lights returning to their normal self .. however all of her energy is sapped into one circle around her
* Klork growls, firing again, trying everything he can .. his own cloud seeming to mesh with Mondo's..
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO( NO one DARES attack my family!!)
* Diana keeps trying the obsession, battering at her block*
<`Angora> {{Your family ... does not matter anymore...}}
* Mondo_Gecko lets out a horribly violent sounding screee and then throws all he's got at her
* Mondo_Gecko GROWLS!!
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO(YOU'll EAT THOSE WORDS!!)
* `Angora glares most of it throwing her back a good ten or so feet ... she seems to have faltered before she glows brightly, almost too bright to look out, sending out a massive shock wave at all three of them, adding a psychic block and deafening thunder to it ...
* Diana stubbornly keeps at it, striking at different areas, trying to find a weak spot...the falling back, resisting the best she can*
* Mondo_Gecko cries out in pain as he's shocked back
* Klork flies backwards and slams into the lip of the roof before going up and over .. getting enough sense in him to grab the ledge so he won't fall
* Mondo_Gecko is thrown a good 10 feet and slams against the ground on his left sholder
* Diana curses and solidifies to try bringing him back onto the roof*
* `Angora glowers, turning her energy to Diana now .. firing another shock wave out at her
* Mondo_Gecko 's eyes widen as he spots Klork and rushes over
<Mondo_Gecko> Klork!! grab my hands man!
* Mondo_Gecko offers
<Klork> I'm TRYIN! Shit man, I cant LIFT my hands to grab yours, I'll fall!!
* Diana turns and growls, getting hit and flying back, but stopping herself in the air, using her powers and sending a wall of fire at Angy*
* `Angora disappates ... seeming to disappear....
* Mondo_Gecko slips down the edge of the roof, and onto the side of the building and gets under Klork and pushes from behind
* Klork tries to climb up, feet skidding at the building side...
<Mondo_Gecko> GRAHH! What the hell do you weigh man!?
* Klork pulls halfway up, frantic and then rolling onto the building
* Diana solidifies back on the building, looking around with narrowed as eyes she goes back to trying to help Klork..*
* Mondo_Gecko claws scrape the brick
* Mondo_Gecko skitters back up, panting hard
<Klork> *whump* Ugh..!! Just ... 240 ... why? *looks over, flat on his back and exhausted*
* `Angora reappears in her normal form .. twenty feet up of the roof ... a good distance away ... quiet ...
* Diana smirks a little, still looking around, starting to bruise, looking up and squinting a little*
* Mondo_Gecko realizes now how much he's shaking..
<Mondo_Gecko> You guys ok?
<`Angora> <ev> Take your death ...... *brings her hands up, firing a mental and massive shock wave at the three of them, hair flying behind her as all of her energy goes into this effort..
* Mondo_Gecko gives a horrible reptilian screeech and throws his head back body sezing up!
* `Angora dissipates....completely gone..
* Diana tries putting a shield up, falling to her knees, and grabbing her head, crying a spell*
<Klork> Yeah, I think I'm doin--SHIT! *throws up a portal best he can, getting slammed to the lip of the roof none the less, but not going over this time...knocked unconscious against the lip ..
* Mondo_Gecko shakes curling up, blood trickling from his nose
* Diana stumbles to her feet, bleeding nicely from where she was hit, cheeks flushed, face lined with pain as she looks at the both of them...checking Klork's vitals*
* Klork is .. lookin' kinda bloody .. propped against the lip ..face into the wedge of it .. so he just looks like he's kissing the lip of the roof ... has a pulse that's barely there ...
* Diana gently pulls him back to lie down, clearing his airway* <vqw> great gods...oh gods...*looks to Mondo, ignoring her own pain, bblood trickling from one ear*
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO( NO!! ..not yet....too young...havn't done it all yet..haven't taken those road trips..haven't played all the clubs....never...found....her)
* Diana swallows and closes her eyes, reaching out with her battered mind to get ahold of anyone she can, clinging to consiousness*
* Klork grits his teeth ... still out ... pain even unbearable whilst unconscious..
* Mitch flinches as his mind's raw nerves, scraped bare by the psychic whiplash, pick up a sense that has never been used before...
* HappyLittleMoron looks up at Mitch* ...take the girls??? Just got a message from Diana...she, Klork and MOndo a...are hurt...really badly....KLork's out...
<Mitch> "I..." He swallows, looking over. "I heard... you're gonna need me, you can't take care of them all."
* HappyLittleMoron nods shakily* K..kay...
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO( god....I hope everyone's ok...I can't hear....I can't even see..am I dead? Did I fail to protect them all? Iris? ...Brenna? ..Mo?)
<Mitch> "Come on, kids..." He scoops Iris up in one pair of arms, taking the stairs two at a time... he sets her down in the living room. "You wait here for us, okay?"
* Klork 's bleedin' from his temple, leg twisted in an abnormal way .. he's mostly scraped up, tho his head wound could be pretty damn bad..
* HappyLittleMoron follows and nods* Take care of Brenna...if anyything else happens, call and hide, k? *hurries up to the roof, sending out a big SOS...Rev's already hurrying home, Diana doing her best to adminiister first aid...*
* Rica pokes her head out of her room, scraped slightly* What the FUCK happened!? Frippin' windows exploded then fell together..! Mi--*blinks as they run right by*
* Mitch hits the bathroom up for the medical kit and bolts for the roof
<Mitch> Over his shoulder. "Sparky attack, explain later!"
<Mitch> .oO(Oh, like I know what's going on. Christ, be all right...)
* Rica blinks .. lost at that...then decides to head down the stairs..blinking to see Iris and Brenna there alone* Gyah...hey squirts...*kneels down by them..*
* Iris looks up at Rica, from holding Brenna*
* HappyLittleMoron hurries over to Klork and Diana, seeing as Klork's the worst off...* Someone call 911?? Dunno if any healers heard me...
* Rica settles by them..* You two ok...?? *her cheek is bleeding a little but ok otherwise*
* Mondo_Gecko is just..umm..laying there..blood streaking from his nose and slipping from the corners of his mouth
* Ryu glides down to the roof, brows furrowed* Wh' 'appen'd!?
* Mitch quickly glances between them, then crouches by Klork... he gently lifts his head up, probing with a light, deft touch at the wound and his neck
* Brenna nods as Rev rushes in, then rushes up to the roof*
<Mitch> "Check Mondo... you know his system better than I do..."
* Diana looks blearily at Ryu* ...fight...I'm..uhm...*leans against the ledge of the roof, struggling not to pass out*
<Klork> *slight pulse ... wound is baad*
* HappyLittleMoron nods and goes to check Mondo out...
* Ryu settles by Mondo, wings flared as she checks him over..*
<Mitch> Mutters. "...keep breathin', you don't want me doing CPR..." *bad how?*
* HappyLittleMoron ...checks Diana then! who's...gone out <G>
* Ryu glances up to see HLM's got Mondo .. then goes over to Diana, helping lift her* <q> Do you need a hospital ..
<Mondo_Gecko> * his pulse is rather slow...physically he's not that wounded but he's cold..his eyes looking really cloudy and they're half opened..his breathing is raspy*
* Diana nods a lil'* Hai...
<Diana> <w> All do...
* Ryu nods, lifting her gently* I can carry Diana .. but they all need to get to a hospital and now.
<Mitch> Almost to himself. "...his neck's fine... nothing broken, I think... his skull's been fractured. Some minor compression. I'm gonna get some of the pressure off."
* Rev looks over them...then kneels by Klork to try some healing, trying to at least stabalize...*
* Klork heals to the point of not bleeding .. but the wound on his head doesn't seem to heal ..
* Rev looks up* Do we have...uhm...cars? I cannot heal the head wound...
* Ryu flares her wings* Ah'm goin' t' take Di t' the 'ospital ..
* Mitch carefully feels around the wound, then gets a grip on the scalp and literally tugs the depressed area out, sliding it back into its normal shape
* HappyLittleMoron kinda holds Mondo...doing what first aid she can...Rev moving on to the next most seriouse to try stablizing...nodding to Ryu...
* Klork almost grunts in the pain that causes .. but doesn't waken up ..
<Mitch> He looks up, a little desperately. "I can't drive."
<HappyLittleMoron> I can...c'mon...truck...ohgods...
* Ryu takes off w/ Diana, gliding to the closest hospital*
<Mitch> "I popped him into place, but I'm not a frickin' surgeon... someone help me hoist him!"
* Rica .. stays with the kids <G>*
* Rev goes over to help Mitch, HLM doing her best to handle Mondo...KEEP YOUR MINDS OUT OF THE GUTTER*
* Diana...goes with Ryu! all limp 'n stuff*
* Mitch horses Klork down the stairs with Rev's help - it's a real bonding experience... he grabs his jacket on the way, ditching the guns
* Ryu gets into a mutant accepting hospital, hollering orders to get a goddamn doctor over to her...*
* Klork goes with .. all .. yeah, what Di said .. all limp n' stuff
* HappyLittleMoron brings Mitch down, finding a way to load 'em all into the truck* {{Where are you, Ryu? Which hospital??}}
<Klork> {{*tells her what hospital*}}
<Mitch> Mutters. "...gonna relax... she was gonna take it easy... oh, Christ, tomodachi..."
* Mitch lays Klork and Mondo out in the bed of the truck, keeping them prone, holding onto the side and crouching over them
* HappyLittleMoron takes off..
* doc comes rushing out, nurses taking Diana* What happened??
* Klork rides with ... gritting his teeth
* Mondo_Gecko starts to whimper..feeling comming back... and he starts to throw up stringy blood
<Ryu> Long story, electricuted ... get her HELP..!
<Mondo_Gecko> .oO( oh my god... I think I woulda been better off dead!!)
<Mitch> "I swear, if I see Sparky again, I don't care what she's been possessed by, I'm gonna break her fuckin'..." *trails off and turns Mondo's head to the side so he doesn't choke*
* Doc nods as Diana's rushed off into the emergency room* Will we be expection any more?
* Klork opens his eyes ... they're unfocused .. dialated .. then he passes out again..
<Mitch> "Mondo, you're in Mrs. Happy's truck... we're taking you to a hospital. Don't try to move."
* Ryu nods* Two more...they both may need surgery..both mutants!
* Mondo_Gecko gives an unintelligable sound in response
* Mitch stays low, pulling the baseball cap out of the jacket's pocket and tugging it on over his face
* HappyLittleMoron gets them there...nurses and stuff coming out to take Klork and Mondo into the hospital..
* Klork gets toted..
* Mitch helps to the limited extent he can, glomming on to the nearest administrator-type. "Where's the woman? Red hair, heavy shock..."
* Ryu glances over to Mitch and HLM* They've already got Diana in the ER ... * yes, it is an accent, I just don't feel like typing it*
* HappyLittleMoron nods* I...I'm gonna...park...Mitch and Rev...wait with Ryu?
* Ryu nods to HLM, leadin' em to the waiting room*
<Mitch> .oO(It's gonne be a coffee night.) "Yeah..."
* Rev goes with obviously, brows furrowed with worry*
* HappyLittleMoron comes back shortly, shaking like a leaf, holding back tears, pausing to call the asylum from a pay phone...
* Mitch does his best not to pace, knocking back a styrofoam cup of courtesy coffee and refilling it immediately... he fills another one, and offers it to Mo as she comes back from the payphone.
* HappyLittleMoron takes it numbly, with a little nod to him, sitting down shakily to wait...
<Mitch> .oO(Shit, I'm glad I'm not travelling in my normal circles. I would've been made in a week at this rate.)
<Mitch> To Rev. "...ever had coffee?"
* Mondo_Gecko is laying in a hospital bed in the hallway, throwing up the blood into a metal bowl, shaking and pale and cool to the touch..the worst headache of his life making the lights above spears pericing his brain
* Rev shakes his head...* Ah...nae...caffien is poison to me though...
<Mitch> "Really?"
<Mitch> .oO(THAT wasn't in the Manual. Caffeine bullets? Can you get pure caffeine?)
* Docs do surgery on Klork's brain...he ends up in a coma in a hospital room, Diana in the room by him, in a similar state...docs just can't tell why SHE hasn't re-awakened...*
* Rev nods...*
* Docs are...uhm...treating Mondo for internal injuries!*
* Mitch shrugs a little and sips his coffee, waiting nervously.
<Mitch> .oO(Be all right... please...)
* A doc comes out after a while, heading over to the group, HLM looking up quickly, brows wrinnkled* Are you the group who brought...ah...Klork Curric, Diana Manashevitz and Shawn Murphy in...?
* Mitch nods, setting the coffee aside and straightening up.
* HappyLittleMoron nods, chewing her lip worriedly, eyes brimming with tears
* Mondo_Gecko lays his head down after a while, finding it's easier to breathe..heaving now and then..he gets a shot in the arm of blood thickeners and pain killers and is wrapped up in a thick blanket with a silvery shiney matereal on the inside to keep in body heat*
<Doc> Well...Mr. Curric needed brain surgery...I'm afraid he is in a coma...Ms. Manashevitz still hasn't awakened and...we're not entirely sure why...besides a little internal bleeding and a minor concussion, she should have been fine...Mr. Murphy is still a bit shocky, and with internal injuries...he's being treated as we speak...
<Mitch> A little muffled. "Oh god no."
* Mitch 's lower hands, within the jacket, clench eachother painfully tight, knuckles white and fingernails digging in
* HappyLittleMoron kinda crumples where she is, a short sob escaping before she forces control over herself again, Rev's brows furrowing...* Uhm...could...we...see any...of them...?
* Doc nods a little* With Mr. Curric and Ms. Manashevitz, we'd prefer if only family saw them...Mr. Murphy should be able to go home once the shock is gone...
* Mondo_Gecko gives another nasty heave and then forces himself to his feet
<Mitch> .oO(I've led this dance.) "We're all family... she's Mrs. Curric... he's a brother of Diana's, and I'm a distant cousin."
* Mondo_Gecko 's legs go out from under him, ignoring the nurses calling for him to sit down and rest
* Doc leads them to Diana and Klork's room...would they pass Mondo by?*
* yep*
* Mitch , on the way, reaches out and squeezes Mo's shoulder tightly, comfortingly
* Mondo_Gecko is helped back up to sit on the bed, refusing to lay down for some reason
* HappyLittleMoron nods shakily to Mitch, then blinks at Mondo* M..er...Shawn....??
<Mondo_Gecko> did the birds get free??
* Mondo_Gecko looks up all zoned
<Mondo_Gecko> ....Klork? Diana??
* Mitch glances between them... gnaws his lip... .oO(He's her son. She's his wife. I'm... fucked. God motherfucking damn it.)
<Mitch> "...go on. I'll stay with Mondo."
<Mondo_Gecko> wherearethey
<HappyLittleMoron> Ok...*Follows the doc to the room, ccompletely breaking down when she sees them* <vqw> Oh gods noooooo...
<Mitch> "Mondo, lie down... they're... they're both in a coma. Klork needed brain surgery. They don't know why Diana's still out."
* delayed reaction...about 15 second*
* Rev holds HLM gently, rubbing her back before lifting her and settling her in a chair, keeling by her*
* Mondo_Gecko starts to breathe funny...panic in his eyes
<Mitch> "Mondo, calm down, there's nothing we can do!"
<Mondo_Gecko> B..Brain surgery!?....
<Mitch> "I don't know what the hell, y'know, happened up there... but Klork hit his head real damn hard against the roof... busted in a piece of his skull."
* Mondo_Gecko whimpers a little
<Mondo_Gecko> where are they!? ...where's Mo?!
<Mondo_Gecko> issheok!?
<Mitch> "They're in critical, under observation. Mrs. Happy and Rev are with them. She's fine, Brenna's fine, Iris is fine, everyone's fine but... them."
* Rev sighs a little and backs off as HLM takes one of Klork's hands, just holding it and watching him. Rev sighs softly and goes to sit by his mother's side*
* Mitch is desperately trying not to think about it himself
* Mondo_Gecko 's breathing starts to slow again... everyone's fine....but them...
<Mitch> "What happened, Mondo?"
<Mondo_Gecko> ...A..Angora..
* Mondo_Gecko winces and then grabs teh bowl and hacks up some more of the stringy blood
<Mitch> .oO(I hate it when I'm right.)
<Mondo_Gecko> s.s..shocked us...
<Mondo_Gecko> tried to take it.....I tried to fight her...sh' tooo strong
<Mitch> "She just started zapping people again?"
<Mondo_Gecko> some kinnnda psychic attack
<Mondo_Gecko> mmaybe it wasn't ththat bad cause I'm not that pychic
<Mitch> "Psychic? You mean... mind?"
* Mondo_Gecko lays down again, shaking
* Mondo_Gecko nods and closes his eyes, a wave of exhaustion hitting him again
* Mitch finds a chair somewhere and forces himself to sit down, twisting his hands together, hard.
<Mitch> .oO(Oh god.)
<Mitch> "...you're gonna be okay. Once you get over the shock, they said. You'll be able to go home."
* Mondo_Gecko nods a little
<Mondo_Gecko> *w* ok....I don't care really....as long as Klork and Diana are ok
* Mitch just shakes his head wordlessly, looking down.
<Mondo_Gecko> *w*Don't worry.....they're strong...
<Mondo_Gecko> *w* ...if they don't know why Diana won't wake up....it's probably not medical
<Mitch> .oO(Never stopped a man from dying before.)
<Mitch> "Shu-" He cuts himself off, and flicks his glasses off with a tense, terse movement, squeezing the bridge of his nose. "...I know. I know, Mondo. Rest."
* Rev watches his mom, stroking her hair lightly, brows furrowed, face otherwise expressionless*
<Mondo_Gecko> *w* astral....
* Mondo_Gecko closes his eyes
* Mitch pushes on his glasses again... .oO(They're watching them. Someone's gotta stay with him... shimatta. Be all right, tomodachi...)
* Mitch sighs and settles in, forcing himself to wait with Mondo.
<Mondo_Gecko> *w* Go
* Mitch doesn't even hear, touching his forehead gingerly
<Mondo_Gecko> *w* Go on..
* Mondo_Gecko closes his eyes
* Mitch sighs again, letting his hand fall to his lap.
* Mondo_Gecko frowns a little and closes his eyes again
* Mitch stays with Mondo... dammit :P
* HappyLittleMoron 's sitting by Klork's bed, holding his hand...Rev is by Diana's, watching her...Klork and Diana are in the same room..
* Ryu slowly comes up behind Rev, settling a hand on his shoulder* ...es sh' al'righ'..?
* Klork is ... still out .. breathing normally .. pulse at a resting rate..
* Rev sighs softly, brushing curls from his mom's brow* <q> I don't know...they don't know why she hasn't awakened...
* Ryu furrows her brows, sitting next to him* <q> A pyschic blow per'aps?
* Rev nods, slipping an arm around her shoulders, eyes not leaving Diana* <q> Perhaps...*sighs softly* I wish I could have been there...
* Ryu nods, glancing up at HLM n' Klork...then tilts her head* <q> Wher' did Mondo go then..?
<Rev> <q> He's out in the hallway...the doctor said he should be able to go home once he recovers...Mitch is with him..
* Ryu furrows her brows, standing* <q> Ah'm goin' t' see ... *rubs his shoulders before going out to the hallway..*
* Rev nods...*
* Rev watches her go before looking to Klork and HLM, then back to Diana*
* HappyLittleMoron brushes hair back from Klork's brow, chewing her lip as she watches him...uhm...rest...
* Ryu pokes her head out, quiety closing the door behind her* <q> M'tch?
* Klork furrows his brow lightly ... grimacing at the stitches that cross his brow ... before relaxing again ...
* HappyLittleMoron chews her lip, going back to just holding his hand, sighing shakily before kissing his fingers
<Klork> {{ .... <vqw> ..... ow.}}
* HappyLittleMoron blinks* {{Oh love...I'm here for you...}}
<Klork> {{<vqw> .... s'....where...}}
* Mitch looks up. "Hi, Ryu... any change?"
* Ryu shrugs* Nae..n're'lly ... 'ow's Mondo..??
<HappyLittleMoron> {{<q> You're in the hospital...}}
<Mitch> "He'll be okay... feels like shit."
<Klork> {{ <vqw> head ... hurts ...}}
* Ryu nods* N' ye..?
* Mitch shrugs a little. "...well, I don't feel too hot. But I wasn't a part of it. I was, y'know, in the cellar with Mrs. Happy and the kids..."
<HappyLittleMoron> {{<q> Yeah...doctor said he needed to operate...you were hurt pretty bad...if...this is too much...you should really just rest...}}
* Ryu shifts, brows furrowed* D'ye wan t' go see Di..? Ah kin' stay w' Mondo ef'n he wakes..
<Mitch> He looks up. "Can you watch Mondo? I wanna go in and see Diana... just to... to..." He shakes his head helplessly.
<Klork> {{<vqw> yea ... rest..}}
* Mitch 's lip twitches slightly. "...yeah. Domo... thanks..."
<HappyLittleMoron> {{<q> Alright love...I'll still be here for you...love you...}}
* Ryu nods .. going and settling on a chair by Mondo, brows furrowed...*
<Klork> {{<vqw> Love y'...too ..*goes silent*}
* Mitch hauls himself up and winces a little, closing his eyes and standing still for a moment before heading into the room.
* HappyLittleMoron sighs shakily, leaning over to gingerly kiss his cheek...
* HappyLittleMoron and Rev look up, HLM looks back to Klork while Rev stands
* Klork purrs very very lightly ... the sound is barely audible unless you're right there..
* HappyLittleMoron smiles softly at the purr, not moving away..
<Mitch> "Tomodachi..." He swallows, half-stepping towards her before halting, looking at Revvy. "Any change?
* Rev shakes his head* ..nae...*sighs a little* Ah...I will give you some alone time with her...*smiles a very little bit*
<Mitch> He shakes his head. "No, it's okay... you can stay..."
* Ryu stands to pace a bit ... every now and then checking to see that Mondo is ok*
* Rev hehs a little and nods, stepping back...Diana jst lying there, hooked up to a heart monitor, IV in her left hand, bruised as hell, but looking like she's sleeping*
* Mitch swallows, watching her... he pulls up a chair, almost absent-mindedly, and settles down at the side of the bed.
<Mitch> .oO(Dammit, why couldn't you just have the night off... why'd something else have to happen...)
* Rev goes to stand by the doorway*
* Mitch flicks off his glasses angrily, turning them over in his hands. .oO(Gomen nasai, tomodachi... I couldn't have done anything if I was there, I know, but... I'm sorry I wasn't... I'm sorry I don't know how to help, I never do...)
* Diana...lies there...heart monitoor beeping evenly...her breathing soft and steady*
* Klork ... in his slumber, twitches his index finger where the heart moniter is clipped on .... every time he moves his finger the screen flatlines...when he stills .. his pulse returns...this goes on for .. about five minutes
<Klork> {{<vqw> *barely audible laughter* Hee.. look ... I'm dead...}}
* HappyLittleMoron blinks...smirking a little, resting her hand on his* {{You're gonna scare the staff if you keep that up..}}
<Klork> *finger wiggles a little...smile slowly creeping his face .. he stays out none the less*
<Klork> *The smile gets bigger*
* Mitch looks down at Diana's limp hand... slowly, he pushes his glasses on and reaches down, curling his own about it, squeezing gently.
* HappyLittleMoron chuckles softly* {{Goof...}}
* Diana's hand stays relaxed...the skin suprisingly soft on the top...calluses from weapons handling*
* Klork goes back to resting ... out again
* HappyLittleMoron grins lopsidedly and shakes her head, squeezing his hand gently
* Mitch lets go, almost feeling guilty as he crosses the forearm across the other and leans his head down upon them. .oO(I'm sorry.)
* Diana breaths steadily still...just...far gone...*
* Mitch pushes himself up, looking over at Mo. Quietly, "...how is he?"
* Klork is .. out again ...
<HappyLittleMoron> <q> He's still out...talked to me for a lil'...I think he's gonna be ok with time...
<HappyLittleMoron> <q> 'n Diana...?
* Mitch shakes his head, flicking off his glasses and ducking his head. "...nothing."
* Rev watches this from the doorway, seeming to be very cool about it...deep in his eyes though you can see the worry*
* HappyLittleMoron sighs a little, squeezing her eyes shut and nodding* ...well...we can...keep up hope...right?
<Mitch> "She's... she's okay. If anyone would be okay, it'd be her."
* HappyLittleMoron nods...* Yeah...
* Mitch scrubs a forearm quickly across his eyes, then looks up. "I'll stay with her." His lip twitches. "Wouldn't be the first time."
* HappyLittleMoron nods...* Ok...heh...I'm sticking around too...for Klork...*looks up to Rev...* If you need air or anything...
* Rev nods a little* I'll go check Ryu and Mondo...*bows lightly and heads into the hallway, hands in his pockets*
* Ryu glances up, brows furrowed* Rev .. ?
<Rev> ...aye?
* Mitch leans his head down on his arms again, watching Diana's aura.
<Ryu> 'as an'thing changed???
<HappyLittleMoron> *Rev shakes his head* Nae...
* Diana's aura is very very dim just enough to show she's still alive...there's just...nobody home*
* Ryu sighs shakily* Ah'm sor'...
* Kameko comes in, pouting a little ... staring at a packet of decaf hot-chocolate
* Rev nods a little and sighs* I'm sure she will be alright...
* Rica looks up, her cheek is scraped* Hey..how're you...?
* Kameko blinkblinks, looking up
<Kameko> Huh..You talkin' t'me, Rica??
* Ryu nods, rubbing his shoulder* Aye..m'too
* Revelyn sighs a little and turns to her* How do you fare...?
* Ryu shrugs* T'red..but well, aye?
* Revelyn nods and gently hugs her* Aye...
* Ryu hugs back* <q> Y' need rest, Rev..
* Revelyn sighs a little and nods* <q> I know, m'love...it's hard, though...*is still in his Richardo's uniform...smelling like the bar :P*
* Ryu rubs at his shoulders, nodding* Ah know ..
* Rev sighs* Should we wait until Mondo awakens again, or...?
* Ryu shifts, sighing shakily* Kin' we nae bring him in' ther..??
* Kameko blips in, streaks across the living room wearing a playboy bunny outfit, does a table dance and then blips back out
* Rica ... decides not to see that*
* Brenna, thankfully, is sleeping <G> So's Iris...yeaaaaaah*
* Rev shrugs* I don't know...
* Rica decides to take them both up to bed, carrying them carefully*
* Ryu hrms..* Et'd nae 'urt t' try, aye?
<Rev> Nae...though, perhaps we should ask the staff, hm?
* Ryu nods* Aye .. good idea'..
* Rev snags a nearby nurse...*
* btw...kids go to bed with Rica <G>*
* Rica comes down the stairs again, stretching*
* Ryu watches ..*
* Rislyn comes down the stairs, wearing a fluffy blue ... lacy thing..glaring at everyone .. heading into the kitchen, coming back with a bucket of strawberries, glaring again .. and then heads upstairs, look telling everyone that if they SAY A WORD..they're DEAD
* Rev gets the ok...*
* Rica just ... stares*
* Rev goes about...moving Mondo in with the other two <G>*
* Ryu helps*
* Mitch glances up, pushing on his glasses long enough to suss out what's going on, then lays his head down again
* Rev hehs a little, running a hand through his hair*
* Ryu glances over* Ar' we ready, aye..?
* Rev nods* Aye...
* Ryu rests her head against his shoulder..*
* Rev sighs, wrapping his arm around her and heading out with her...bidding 'em g'bye 'n stuff*
* Ryu waves as well .. heading down the hall*
* Rev steps out into the night with her, kissing her hair gently*
* Mitch doesn't really react, wearily watching Diana's aura as if the weight of his gaze would somehow make it stronger
* Ryu spreads her wings* Wan'te fly ..?
* Rev shrugs* If you wish, m'love..
* Ryu smiles, wrapping her arms around his chest before lifting off the ground, flying/gliding back to the asylum*
* Rev grins, enjoying the ride*
* Ryu settles on the roof, setting him down gently* <q> C'mon .. lets rest, aye?
* Rev nods a little* Aye...*streatches a little and kisses her brow* <q> Thank you...
* Ryu smiles* Aye .. *Takes his hand to lead him down th' stairs*
* Rev goes with*
* Ryu opens the door to his room for him, motionig for him to go first*
* Rev blinks and hehs, heading through* Thank you..
* Ryu smirks* Aye ..
* Rev sighs, stripping his shirt off and sitting on the bed*
* Ryu heads over, settling next to him*
* Klork groans, brow crinkling lightly .. followed by a wince..
* HappyLittleMoron blinks* <q> Honey...?
* Mitch glances up
<Klork> <slurred> Sh...fuck ... ow.
* Rev kinda looks at the shirt in his hands, resting his elbows on his knees*
<HappyLittleMoron> Shh...*hits the call button to let the nurses know he's waking up* <q> It's ok...
* Ryu rubs at his shoulders, brows furrowing
* Klork grimaces, eyes squinting to open .. his vision is blurred ...
<Klork> <q> Th'... wher'...m'I?
* Stands so he can see her* <q> You're in the hospital, love...
* Klork squints up at her .. trying to not move his brow at all..
<Klork> <q> N-kay ... wh's..Di n... M'ndow..Oww..
<HappyLittleMoron> <q> They're both here...both out...think Mondo's just sleeping...it'll be ok, honey...you need to rest...
<Klork> <q> 'can't..*tries to sit up..deciding better and lays down* urts ..
* HappyLittleMoron nods a little, looking up as the Nurse comes in to look him over
<Nurse> Ah...pain meds are wearing off...here...*puts more into his IV bag thingie* This should help, Mr. Curric...
* Klork sinks, grimacing a bit ... but after a while his brow smoothes .. he relaxes .. and goes out again
* HappyLittleMoron sighs a little and looks up at the nurse* The meds keepin' him uot, huh...?
* Nurse nods...*
<HappyLittleMoron> Ah...*sighs a lil'* Thanks...
* Nurse heads over to examine Diana and Mondo*
* Mitch just watches, pushing himself away a little to make room
* Nurse sighs a bit, writes on Diana's chart, and turns to go...no change*
* Rev hns and leans into Ryu's hands lightly*
* Ryu continues, sighing*
<Rev> I do hope everything turns out alright...
* Ryu nods* <q> Aye ... me as well
* Rev rubs his eyes a little*
* Ryu sighs* Rest..?
* Rev nods and leans back into the bed*
* Mitch gets up long enough to get some coffee, settling down again and staring down at the steam
* Kameko comes over, suddenly over Mitch's shoulder
<Kame> You have coffee?!
* HLM blinkblinks...
<Mitch> "There's a courtesy pot in the hall..."
* HLM leans back in her chair, rubbing her neck a lil'
* Mitch nurses the coffee, determined to stay up as long as possible
* Klork .. sleeps in a drug-induced and painlessly numb sorta way
* HLM sighs a little, Diana still out...no body home...if anyone tried calling her they'd get the mental answering machine <G>
