IC "Lukas, I'm not going out-"
"Actually...it's not Lukas."
Hazel turned around from her spot on the chair by the window and her eyes widened in rather genuine surprise. "You...you're actually here? I...I thought it was just another ploy...to get me out...but you're actually here...and you're alive...Ezra it's you..." she said in disbelief and got up, brushing her hair down with her hands.
Norman gave a nod as he looked at her and honestly he hurt slightly...he really had broken her, he had broken her and left her broken for a long, long time. "Yeah...it's me."
The woman looked at him, unsure of what to do or say. She had gotten better for a short amount of time, even gotten out of the house, and then she ran into Patrick and everything got bad again, and now...here he was, her youngest son, who she had hurt, here...it was a lot to take in.
OOC Text
IC "Norman...I-I am so, so, so sorry. I never meant to hurt you...you have to know that I would never hurt any of my children," Hazel started quickly, looking over at her son.
Norman took a step back. "Just...forget it, I know you didn't mean to shoot me...you meant to shoot my brother, which is even worse," he told her, looking up at her with a steady glare on his face.
Hazel paused and looked down for a second. "I know I stepped over a line. I shouldn't have touched the people not even allowed in the game. But you stepped over the line to Norman, you tried to shoot yourself, you blew up my entire life's work, you destroyed everything, and that's crossing a line too," she told him firmly and Norman froze.
She was right too...he knew that, he knew that now...however he couldn't bring himself to admit that. "I know what you did on level two, nothing you did there was good. You dissected Arthur!"
"Who?...oh right the bear boy...well he was no longer useful," Hazel said plainly.
Norman sent her a glare. "See, that's why I had to stop you. Because you were a heartless evil queen there, and I couldn't stand by and do nothing," he told her and Hazel looked him over, it was really quite a surprise how easily it was to get back into that mind set with him there. It was almost like they were playing again.
"Yet Norman...you aren't very different from me, now are you?"

Nathaniel flinched- whoops. He forgot to mention that throughout Wings, huh? "Yes, I have a sister. And if me and my new boyfriend had gotten around to talking a long time ago, we would have been boyfriends for a long period of time them," OOC Text
IC "Well that's on you two for not talking sooner then," Lukas said simply. "I hope you and your 'new' boyfriend are very happy," he added though it was very unclear if he was being sarcastic or not.

Nathaniel lightly growled. He really still hated this guy - All he was was Hazel's second in command, he was nothing special at all.
Lady decided it was her turn to speak. "So, you were at Wings, correct?"

IC When Norman didn't answer, Hazel continued, feeling quite like she had gained the upper hand. "It's funny, you are the child I have spent the least amount of time with, and while I like to think that all my children are like me, you are almost a copy," she told him with a slight shake of her head as she sunk back into her chair.
"You remind me so much of myself, back when I was in my teenage years I believed in doing the 'right thing' too," she confessed, beginning to run a hand through her hair. "But the thing is, the world doesn't want you to do the right thing, and once people stop seeing you as a hero, have never seen you as a victim...there's only one thing the world sees you as...and that's the villain," Hazel explained and rested her head on the top of the chair. "Even my own children think of me as the villain, do you have any idea what that feels like?" She asked.

IC "Lived there for the best 12 years of my life," Lukas explained as he focused his attention on Lady. "Who are you exactly?" He asked with a furrowed brow, he had no idea who this lady was.

IC "...Not always," Norman interrupted and Hazel paused to look over at him. "You weren't always the villain...like after I told you I was gay and we had that fight...instead of getting mad at me or casting me out...even when I let my crazy brother out...you...you comforted me, you hugged me and told me everything was going to be alright, that wasn't a villain, that was my hero...at the time. You are the only one who truly understands what it's like...to be the player and not part of the game...you aren't a villain if I'm not, at least not to me," he explained and sat down on the bed. "You are a person, a person who did some bad things for what you thought was a good reason...and that's exactly what I did. So if you're a villain, so am I," he explained.
Norman let out a small sigh. "Though...I guess the difference between us, is that you let the world see you as the villain yet thought of yourself as the hero. Meanwhile I...I let the world see me as some glorified hero...while I know that I'm a villain, it's all about who sees what, or who thinks what..." he explained with a shake of his head.
Hazel looked at him and smiled slightly. "I can't tell if you're very wise for your age...or just edgy."

IC Lukas nodded. "Oh believe me, I understand. Kinda curious though, who's your boss?" He asked with a raised brow, he was still almost trained to question things, keep tabs on people, it could get him in trouble in times...but, eh...usually worth it.

"Not worth mentioning~" she cooed out lightly. It was still a part of her job on not revealing who she worked for- and make sure Nathaniel didn't give away who he stayed with. Even if Michael had met them- she was certain he hadn't told them that he was going to rebuild the labs.

OOC Text
IC "Hmmph...probably both," Norman joked lightly, curling his tail around him and hugging it lightly before placing his head on said tail.
Hazel looked over at him. "Hey Norman, you said you see yourself as the villain, or at least a villain...why?" She asked, looking at him curiously. "After all, in the typical story...you are the hero, the brave, young, odd teen protagonist who saves the day, isn't that essentially...the hero?" She asked with a tilt of her head.
Norman shrugged. "Yeah...that's the worldly view on it. But compared to my brothers...I'm not a hero. I manipulated and broke you, I used people to my advantage, I lied, I was honestly mostly terrible to a lot of people...and I had Rob blow the place up...I only got the hybrids out, your workers...they died, I helped kill so many people...I used what you loved most against you, that doesn't sound much like a hero to me, what's worse is that no one wants to make me pay for it...any of it, I think I would feel better, if someone saw me as a villain too," he confessed, looking down.
"So you've been doing that for you," Hazel interrupted, shaking her head at him. "You're being unnecessarily cruel to yourself Norman. Did you know that each of you three kids have names that mean something?" She asked and Norman looked over at her curiously. "Cecil means blind, I hoped he would be blind to the past, see things new and fresh and see me as someone good, blind to my bad side...thinking back I also think it might be because I was blind...blind to how bad things would get," Hazel explained before she continued. "Soleil means sun, because she was my sunshine at the time and I felt like we could use a new source of light," she told her son.
Norman looked at her. "What about Ezra? What does Ezra mean?" He asked, surprised to find that his mother was so poetic.
Hazel let out a sigh. "Ezra means help, because at that point in my life, I needed help. I was drowning in everything around me and no one was there to help. So I named you Ezra because I hoped that you would be the help I needed...and then Patrick took you from me. He took my help, and I started to break without you...Norman you didn't break me, I was already broken before, you just won a game of chess," she explained as she rested her head back again.
