"Her name is Annabelle and she's really tall." Passive said.

"Oh... I was thinking of someone else," Dragon Girl said coyly, "I've saw her around though. I wonder if Annabelle is one of the Writers?" She pondered outloud. Though, she had no intentions of explaining what she meant by that.

Aura ran in circles around Loki's legs in an attempt to stay out of Morgan's reach.

"Writers?" Passive asked.

Mason gently shook his head, frowning as she refused to take his hand. Her voice changing also made his heart sink. "No, no Skaldi he won't kill you. You're too nice, besides he's gone now," he said carefully. Even though she refused to take it, he kept his hand there. "He doesn't even know you're here," he added, pretty sure it was right.

Lachy just laughed. He honestly didn't know who Fenrir was, he couldn't keep track of all the names, but he would take her word on it. "I be sure to stay thankful of that," he said happily, looking back where Thor had disappeared. He looked much unlike Chris Hemsworth, so he was pretty strange for him to look at.

Aura started to run around Loki's legs on one side, then changed directions and bolted out from the other side. She scampered down the hall, turned and ducked down behind Luna's legs.

Dragon Girl blinked. "You know, people who like to write..." She had actually meant something slightly more, but hadn't intended to say anything about it. Oops.

(What language is the book written in? Peter can only read Arcanian, and is trying to learn to read English. The castle's magic won't translate written stuff.

Arcanians can understand any language heard after a few seconds of listening to it. Implants in their brain will decode and translate the language for them, at which point they can then speak it - which is why he can communicate with anyone outside of the castle's translating magic. The majority of the population has these implants, but not all of them do. As for written stuff, that still has to be learned the old fashioned way. I'll add some more information about them on the front when I find the time to. :3)

Peter studied the book closely. It appeared to have some sort of writing on it and he brushed the cover off for a better look.

"I-i-is he r-really?" Skaldi managed to squeak out with another tremor.

Hannah shook her head as though snapping out of a daze. "That was cool. But I still need something to eat." After heading back into the kitchen and checking on her bag, she began to fix something from the food that Claudia had made at some earlier time. She had yet to meet the cook behind these fabulous meals, but they had her eternal thanks. The castle was primitive, and the awesome meals made it much easier to live without modern comforts.

Nova was tied to a leg of the table by her leash. She whined pitifully, but her begging for scraps fell on deaf ears.

(I guess it would make sense if it was written in Arcanian lol now it's just going to give Alice away XD)

The first page of the book was the contents, like any other book. It had contents like in any other type of research book, there was even a bookmark for the diagrams. However, at the bottom of the contents page there was red writing, some of it seemed written down so hastily that is was unreadle, however the parts that were readable said:
'Experiment 37 has been put under restrictors, enclosing it in this bird-like form to prevent it from gathering any more extraterrestrial dust. It is feared that if it gathers another dust from a supernova remnant, it could gain a form capable of destroying the entire continent'

Keldeo tilted it's head. "Oh, you mean this," It pointed to the blade-like horn on its head with a hoof. "Well, it's more like a sword or blade to be honest." The creatures blue tail flicked casually.

(hey Artemis. wanna join my new roleplay i put like twenty minutes of effort into? XD)

(That'll be fine ^^)

Dragon Girl backed up and flopped down on a bed, head tilted. "You kind of remind me of someone. I just can't quite put my finger on it..."

(XD Poor Alice)

Peter was shocked to find the book written in his native language. He eagerly browsed through the book's contents, eventually coming back to the page in the front. There was a note in red at the bottom and he skimmed over it. He blinked and read over it again, slowly. Uh-oh. This sounded really bad. T demanded to know what it said, and when Peter told her, the sprite made some sort of snappy retort about all birds being bad news.

(I can't promise that I'll be very active if I join, since I can barely keep up with the RPs I'm already in and I'm stuck using a phone, but I'll still check it out. ^^)

Luna was still staring at Loki waiting for his reply. If he didn't help her she would make sure the pups would never leave him alone. Man there was some good things about being the moon of course though that was just a worse case scenario not a certainty that she would even do that. No matter how annoying the mischief god was.

"Just know there is a lot the moon could do Loki. Do not take me asking you as a joke or you will regret it." Luna said and before leaving she pushed her presence through the room and a few others allowing the slaves of the moon to become slightly aggressive towards Loki not enough to kill him but hurt now that was another story. "Goodbye for now dear God of Mischief." Then she was gone her presence lingering.

(i am so excited for our plan Artemis.)

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost."

  (OOC)

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you."

  Morgan shifted into her normal ghostly self mostly out of shock with Aura's sudden aggression. She had a look of 'Do I even want to know?' before shaking her head and deciding to bluntly ask, "What in carnation was he doing here?" she seemed to snap and before crossing her arms. She was determined to get the answer from him even if it meant angering him a little.

The first page after the contents was just a simple explanation on how Experiment 37 is planned to be made and what chemical elements it is formed from. It said something about it being 'one of the most challenging experiments yet'. After that was the diagrams page, however it seemed to be empty, except for a tiny, flat microchip-like thing on the middle of the page.

(The microchip projects a 3d model if thats fine X3)

Peter continued to read the book with avid interest. If the bird was potentially dangerous, then he wanted to learn all that he could about the creature. He turned to the diagrams page, frowning when it appeared to not have anything on it. Just as he started to turn another page, however, something small caught his eye. Was that some kind of chip? It looked like the sort that projected a three dimensional hologram. He lightly touched it to see what would happen. (It's fine! If you have any more ideas, let me know. I'm still adding things and I'm open to other people's ideas.)

Loki glanced around the hall following Morgan's question. He didn't want to chance any more eavesdroppers listening in. With a gesture of his head to follow, Loki turned and ascended the stairs, still holding Aura at arm's length by the scruff of her neck.

(It's fine Cloud!)

Skaldi finally turned to Mason and dabbed some tears away. The shaking had all but stopped but the horrified expression remained. Very nervously, Skaldi turned and peered out from beneath the bed. The thunderous footfalls were no longer audible, so he was either gone or lurking. Skaldi sincerely hoped it was the first option and not the second.

Hannah seated herself at the table with a plate of food. "Yeah, that's right. As soon as everyone eats and Morgan gets back, we can go." Hopefully by then, the sun will have sank a little more and wouldn't be so terrible, but without it being dark.

(Right? haha)
