May was sitting on a log, watching what was happening all around the camp and thinking. The camp wasn't really that protected, so they should probably do something about it, but what? Standing up, he decided to see where Chill was, if she was okay. He padded over to where her tent was and knocked on the door, not bothering to look around the back. "Chill?" He asked softly.

Chill heard him call for her and she debated whether or not she would leave her pile of snow. She sighed after a moment, standing. She brushed her clothes off, which looked like they hadn't ever touched snow in their life, and walked around to the front of the tent. "Hey, May." She signed slowly.

May jumped a little bit when he saw her come out from behind the tent. "Hey." He said and looked over to her. "I just wanted to ask if you're okay." He said. He knew she could be effected more then some others.

Chill shrugged a bit. 'Not really. Shaken up ... scared ... don't want to be dusted.' She shifted closer to him as she dropped her paws to her sides, thinking of how to sign this next thing. 'Thank you for being there for us.'

May and looked down for a moment, then looked back up at her. He didn't know what to say to her, so instead of saying anything he just smiled and wrapped his arms around her. "Dont thank me. " He said.

She gripped him tight, claws digging in - but not harming him as she returned the hug, holding him close as she let out broken sob. "I'm so scared." She whispered into his shoulder.

May nodded. "Me too, but there has to be a way." He said, trying to calm her.

@ all - I'm kind of salty rn bc i keep getting people to say they'll do a plot of mine but they keep ignoring it. My muse for that one has run crazy for weeks and I just want to start doing it. Nothing aimed at you guys, i'm just saying bc i'm really tired and cranky.
@ val - I did? uhhhh how's this? Darrius Key did have nightmares again. He couldn't really remember them, but by the way he had woken, screaming, he knew they were bad. It was only three in the morning when he woke up, but after such an ordeal, he decided to go for a walk. It was still drizzling outside, but it wasn't pouring anymore. He returned to his room at six am and layed silently on his bed with Murkrow on his chest until his companions woke up.
@ real - I really have no idea, I'm sorry.

Anya dug her fingers into her scalp, eye shut tightly as she tried to block out the image of the man she had... the man who had died. Murderer... Cold, slimy voices whispered and taunted in her mind. Monster... All you're good for is killing... That's all you'll ever be good at... "Shut up." It started as a choked whisper, but soon enough Anya was screaming it over and over, tears streaming down her face. She looked only half as mad as she felt right now.
(Sorry this took a while, had to finish summer work last minute ^^')

@ sparky - Aoife followed the sounds of the screaming, brow furrowing further with every step. Once she reached the door, she knocked loudly, hoping to be heard by the screaming.

Anya quieted a few moments after she heard the knocking. Her first thought was that it was just another part of her mind playing tricks on her, but then it dawned on her that it was possible it was real and that an actual knight had arrived to the castle. She curled in on herself, whimpering quietly. As much as she wished she could act normal, at the moment that was a bit of an impossibility.

Before I respond, I want to put something forward to you
Now, depending on your thoughts as to how asnya's power affects Apife, I was thinking that she becomes addicted to it. Like, if it makes her weaker she is fansunated as to how it feels to not be Forres and full of power all the time, but it makes her weak and thus could end up killing her. Or on the other hand, it makes her stronger and she gets addicted to the power but by using it over and over again she slowly starts to ge darker and more demanding and ultimately becomes consumed in power until Anya cuts her off.
And then we might have something where it doesn't affect her at all and she tries to help Anya learn to control it by demonstrating with her fire?

What do you mean by how it effects Aoife? Like just having her in the same area as Anya when she uses it having an impact on her or what?
Depending on how you respond to that first part this might change, but I think it would be interesting if Aoife became addicted to it making her weaker (though I don't quite see how it would), since I was planning on having what you described with getting addicted to power and more dark and demanding, etc. be what happens to Anya after a while and it would just be really interesting to have them in such an unhealthy relationship like that.

I was thinking that if it flared out of control and it hit Aoife like it did the knight. IMHO I don't think it would kill her bc she's not human.
(Also I'm comics get Tena and Minda stuff. I'll email you one of the pages I've half finished.)
Aoife knocked again, softer this time. "It's me." She said softly. "The dragon thief. Are you okay?"

(Sorry for late response)
Mika hadn't heard the scream. He remained asleep until morning. Valkoinen had sat up briefly at the sound, but she'd been too tired for her mind to actually register what had happened and she'd dropped right back to sleep only seconds later.
As the sun came up, Eevee woke first, nudging and nipping at Mika to get him to wake up. As Mika woke, he sat up slowly and pushed his hair out of his face as he looked at the normal type. "It's early..." He complained, petting the little fellow with a yawn.

(Oh, okay, I get what you mean. And yeah, I don't think it would kill her either, but the weakening seems likely)
"No, you're not," Anya muttered, digging her nails into her scalp. "You're just another trick." Just another voice among the normal cruel ones. She curled up tighter, knees pressed to her chest. She shuddered.
"Why am I so screwed up?"

@ val - I'm sorry I have no idea how to form a response to that.
@ Sparky - "I'm coming in, okay?" Aoife spoke softly, pushing the door hard enough to open in. She approached the princess carefully and crouched down in front of her, gripping her hands tight and pulling them away from her hair. "I'm here, I'm real."

(Sorry, i'll expand upon it.)
The Eevee continued his antics until Mika got out of bed and picked him up, heading out the door. Once he was in the hall, he headed to the main floor and out the front doors. He set the Eevee down in the grass next to the Center and he took a seat on the bench outside as the Eevee began to run about and roll around. It was playing in the dew-y grass and happily yipping. Mika offered a tired smile, trying to stay awake.
Valkoinen started to wake up and she sighed. She wanted to stay asleep. She didn't want to leave the town and camp on the trail for the next few days, but she'd have to do it eventually. She couldn't drive and Mika tended to get carsick...
With another irritated sigh, she got up and changed into her regular clothes before heading out to the hall. She could see Mika outside with the Eevee, though no sign of Key. Had he woken up yet? She went over to the door to his room and knocked. "Hey, you awake?"

Key shifted in the bed, cupping the still sleeping Murkrow in his hands and he sat up. His hair was still wet from the rain. "Yeah, I'm awake." He responded. He wasn't sleepy, although his nightmare made him feel lousy. "I'll be out shortly."

Part of Anya wanted nothing more than to be able to curl into Aoife’s side and hopefully be told that everything would be alright. After so long without a comforting human (kind of) touch, this contact alone would have been nice were it a slightly different situation. But it wasn’t and an overwhelming part of her wanted to run and hide in shame, though Aoife blocked her only way out.
She forcefully pulled her hands away. She wrapped her arms around her legs, ducking her head. “D-don’t touch me,” Anya tried to snap. “Just… stay away or else I might do- do it to you too.” She took a deep, shaking breath. “I didn’t mean to. It was an accident, I-I swear, I d-didn’t mean to. You’re wrong, shut up.”

"Alright. You know where you want to get breakfast?" She asked through the door. She wan't really up for eating at the Center again. There had to be a chain restaurant or food stand around here. Something cheap and quick so they could eat on their way.

@ sparky - Aoife was confused by what she was saying so she shifted closer, pressing her hands onto her shoulders. "Focus on me." She murmured, "I'm here, I'm real and there is no one else here who wants to hurt you. I don't blame you. No one here thinks thst you did it on purpose."
@ val - "I'll find my own, thanks." He responded as he swung out of bed, moving over to the draw thtat had his dy clothes on top. "I'll meet you outside the centre later." Now dressed with Murkrow on his shoulders, he left eithout snother word, heading towards the nearby forest.

".... Oh?" Valkoinen looked a little confused at that. What was he expecting to find out there?
For now she dismissed it and she headed back out to Mika. The two went to find a food stand and they purchased some food for now and some packaged food for the road later. She brought up to Mika that Key had been getting food from the woods, wondering if he could offer any answers. Considering a fair amount of time had passed, Mika suggested they go find him. Whether he was still in the woods or back at the Center, it was time to get the group back together and get moving. They went to the Center first, since that was where Key had arranged to meet up.
