IC Once Winslow was sure they were out of hearing distance, he turned to glare at Cliff. βYouβre trying to set us up. Arenβt you? You live for matchmaking and now youβre doing it to poor Loreto and me. Thatβs why you keep planning these events and randomly disappearing for a long time, isnβt it?β He accused, jabbing a finger at Cliffβs chest, while the combined hybrid stood agape in shock.
βWhat? Me? Never...β Cliff paused when he saw that Winslow was not buying into his act and sighed, fiddling with his fingers. βOkay, maybe just a little. Itβs just, you two would make a cute couple and I thought you both mightβve kinda liked each other. You act kinda like you do, and I was only trying to help,β he explained weakly, sending Winslow an apologetic smile.
Winslow stared at him for a good minute before shaking his head. βI donβt like Loreto, and Iβm pretty sure he doesnβt like me either, you should focus more on enjoying a day off instead of matchmaking your friends,β he said, frowning a little. Loreto didnβt like him, he was pretty sure of that, and...Winslow glanced back over towards Loreto. He...he didnβt like Loreto either, right? And even if he did, so what? Cliff crossed a line, that was the important thing here. βNow, weβre all going to go back, finish the cheesecake and then Iβm going home,β he added as he walked back over to the table and sat down, not saying a word as he went back to eating his cheesecake.
Cliff watched him walk back, whining slightly as his antennas drooped. This wasnβt turning out how he had hoped at all...But, maybe he just needed a change of tactic. So, with that in mind, Cliff smiled again and trotted on back to join them.
Loreto watched them slightly from where he was sitting. They may have bern out of earshot, but he could still see them. It looked like they were possibly arguing? Loreto wasn't sure. He watched the two of them as they joined him back at the table. "Is everything alright?" he asked the other hybrids.

IC Winslow didnβt answer, however Cliff did, offering a smile at Loreto. βMhmm, just peachy!β He promised as he poked at his cheesecake. βWinβs gonna leave after this though,β he added and Winslow gave a nod of confirmation with that. βI think I might stay out though. You should stay too, Lori! Itβll be fun!β Cliff suggested as he looked over at Loreto with a smile.

Loreto looked over to Cliff as he spoke. "Sure, I'll stay out with you." he said with a nod. It was a little disappointing that Winslow was leaving them but he wanted to stay out a bit longer.

OOC Hereβs the reference!
And hereβs the starter:
IC The day after the break in, which Klause still had problems with mind you, he had to once again leave the comforts of his apartment to go grocery shopping. So that was why Klause was in some small, close by grocery store, adding in random things to his basket, whatever it was he bought, he was sure he could make a meal out of it later, he was good at that. Had his own homemade cookbook full of simple, weird recipes.
( Morning! I tried posting earlier but it screwed up AND I LOST A REALLY LONG POST AND NOW I DON'T HAVE THE GUMPTION TO DO IT AGAIN. EDIT:: I CONTRADICTED MYSELF I DIDN'T REALIZE I WROTE A LOT. ) Avon had slipped out of his previous shelter and was running down the street toward some sort of safe place. He stopped for a moment and looked around, wheezing as he was almost out of breath, and he saw the grocery store. Yes! A warm place. Avon started running again, running across the street and toward the entrance, eager to enter the store and get some sort of warmth. But the moment he got to the entrance someone came out, and he slammed into the males leg, fell back and squeaked. "ow!" he whimpered, rubbing his lower back and looking up at Klause, the person he slammed into. He didn't speak very often, so he didn't say another word for the time being. But he looked very cold, and he had small injuries on his arms and shoulders and neck and his face. Just little cuts, though. He was only wearing a white short sleeved shirt, a grey pair of pjs and some white socks. No shoes,or a jacket. His fingertips were very red and his lips looked pale. He tried to get the courage to spit out an apology, and then after a moment he snapped back to reality and looked up at Klause, whimpering. "I... I- I'm... Sorry-" he squeaked out.

OOC: Morning!
IC: Maverick nodded, still looking down. He could understand that, especially about the Feles Wolves attacking the school. He was lucky he just didn't say anything about what they were doing the second time Beau shifted. No one would believe that. "Believe me, there are a lot of things in our family that would would never believe," he said quietly, though he shrugged slightly and looked up at her again. "I'm not covering up anything. What part are you confused about?" He asked. He had a feeling it was the shifting thing. That was easy to fix, he could demonstrate. But if it was something like the Feles Wolves attack, that would be a little more difficult.

IC :: "It is harmless for the most part, if that's what you're worried about. F1, close the doors, lock them. I'd rather the others not come back, as it might frighten the little ones," Michael ordered. Nathan was sure that was BS, he just didn't want Nadia to come in and get upset due to any experimentation on Nathan.
Buibui nodded, moving towards the door. Nathan felt he had reason to believe Michael was not telling the truth when he said it was harmless for the most part. Nothing he made was ever really harmless. But Nathan could put up with it at least probably, he wouldn't risk Nathan dying, so it was not the extreme the snow leopard supposed.
He didn't like the spider hybrid's sharp hiss as she passed Cero, who was kinda conveniently blocking Norman from view furth from where the red squirrel was. Nathan was just glad the vulture didn't say anything. Along with her hiss of frustration, she moved over to him and Michael, before muttering something to Michael that he couldn't hear.
The blonde simply nodded, "We'll deal with that in a moment then. I've been rather anxious to try this out anyway, nathan, hold out your arm."
The snow leopard did so, regretting this already so much. The scientist took out a syringe filled with an unknown liquid to Nathan. Though, he got it from around his desk area and Nathan spotted several other things along with it. Unfortunately none of them were really labelled, but Nathan could bet....
"F--k! Ow, a little warning next time?" Nathan jumped at the prick he felt in his arm, rubbing the spot Michael had pricked him. It just stung a little. But nothing inherently seemed terrible. So, the snow leopard watched Michael clean the needle part and put it back where he had picked it up.
Acting as though nothing happened, Michael turned to Buibui, "So F1, you say there is an unwanted presence in the room? You can point them out if you'd like, if you're sure there is one. Or we can wait for them to come out on their own and deal with something less severe?"

OOC Hi, Ano!
Also, did you wanna skip again?
IC Klause had just left the store, plastic bags full of groceries were slung over his arms, hat on his head as he tugged his jacket closer, mumbling about the cold under his breath. Then, out of no where, some kid just ran right into him. Klauseβs first reaction was to stiffen and take a step back, and only did he relax after he realized this kid wasnβt one of those sick people. He wouldβve freaked out if he was sick. Luckily, it wasnβt. However, there still was some random young looking fellow looking at him, clearly not dressed appropriately for the weather and Klause did not know how to handle it. So, he just sort of looked at him for a minute. β...Er, itβs alright. Where uh, whereβs someone around here to keep an eye on you? There is someone for that, right?β He asked cautiously, not entirely sure how to talk to him. Klause, was not very social.
-
Billy shrugged at first, not answering right away, really she was confused by a lot of it. But her biggest concern was definitely the whole shifting thing. She was a little worried Maverick might be on something right now. However she eventually did answer him, gesturing to him widely. βAll of it, but uh, mostly just the wolf stuff. Pretty sure itβs impossible to change into a wolf,β she reminded him, brow raised expectingly as she waited for him to answer.
-
Norman froze in his spot, a slew of curses shooting through his mind, however he stayed quiet, held his breath, and held as still as he possibly could. Maybe, just maybe they wouldnβt find him, because if they did, he was screwed and he was certain there would be a large group of angry people when he finally did manage to get back to the others...if he did in the first place.

IC :: "What do you think you're talking about? There isn't anybody but us four in h-" Nathan started to say. But he was interrupted by an unpleasant sensation. He moved his hand to his mouth and neck, trying to figure out what was happening.
Michael all too calmly said, "Ah, so it takes a small while to take effect. Interesting. B5, record how long that lasts."
The vulture hybrid looked slightly towards Norman with no expression before moving over to grab a timer and figure out how long the snow leopard would be in 'pain.'
And it felt like pain, as soon enough Nathan felt as though his enter body had shut off- he didn't think he was breathing and he couldn't move. He didn't believe he could anyways and he fell to the floor, trying to process what was happening. The thought I'm going to die, Michael finally did it, he decided to kill me came up immediately.
As if Michael knew what was Nathan was thinking, he said, "Don't worry. It shouldn't last too long... I hope." The scientist got out of his desk and moved towards the spider hybrid. "Well, it doesn't seem the apparent pest is coming out. F1, would you please find them and bring them out. I'd like to know who thinks they can come in here."
"Of course," the spider hybrid gleefully said before moving towards the squirrel's hiding spot.

OOC Great, could you start? I have a bunch of other roleplays that I gotta reply to.
IC Normanβs heart began to speed up. Well, he either let Buibui grab him or reveal himself and have some sort of...something. He decided with the second option as he stood up from his hiding spot. βThat wonβt be necessary, I think Iβll reveal myself instead,β he said and sent a glare towards Buibui. βBack she -devil, youβre no longer needed to get me,β he said, glancing at Nathan for a second. He needed to play it cool, and luckily for him, he was a good actor, and if anything else, could probably at least help his situation with that.

IC :: Buibui hissed and started towards the squirrel despite that, ready to tear the kid limb to limb. She remembered him all right. She paused however when she heard Michael tell her a swift, "Stop." So, unwillingly she stopped, focusing on glaring at Norman instead. Her fangs were bared as a warning.
Michael let out a rather amused sigh, "F1, you can take a few steps back. After all, he chose to come out of his hiding place. Even if it was a little late. So, W5, why exactly have you paid this unwanted visit?" The scientist calmly asked stepping forward as the spider took steps back.

IC Norman brushed down the wrinkles from his clothes. βHmm, I donβt really think I should tell you. Youβd probably kill me if I didnβt have something to hold as leverage, though then again, you might kill me anyways, I wouldnβt put it past any of you,β he made a point to glare accusingly at Nathan-despite the situation, and though he was quite concerned for the snow leopard, right now, he had to play the part and it would be easier to pretend he still hated him. βSo, I think Iβll keep that to myself for now. Nice place you got here, though, it should have been shut down years ago,β he added, looking around.

IC :: "I suppose you have a point there. Though, you must understand, it wouldn necessarily be an immediate death," Michael responded with, a small smile on his lips as he spoke. He was aware it would be slower and much more torturous. Unless on the off chance there was anything useful. But keeping in information was a smart way to stay alive, Michael was all too familiar. "On the topic of this place however, technically it should be. Though, you can't say it is in a working mode, rarely any of it is used. With the exception of this room of course. I couldn't bear the thought of this place going though, I was just lucky enough to find a way to keep it alive."

IC Norman was an idiot sure, but he wasnβt stupid, he knew how to handle situations like this. βAh, I see. Well, Immediate death or not, Iβd rather not risk it. Sad though, about this place being alive, any sane hybrid would hope to see it dead by now,β he said pointedly, shooting a glance towards Buibui. βOf course, not all of us can be sane, can we?β He chirped out darkly before returning his focus to Michael. βHow did you know I was here? It seemed like I was doing a good job of staying hidden.β

IC :: Buibui was ready to leap forward, but was stopped by the blonde scientist. So she just let out a growl. "She has her reasons for being on my side of things. A perfectly sane reason, whether or not her actions are is a different story."
"I take offense to that," the spider hissed out her glare briefly turning to Michael.
"I realized you would. I mean no offense if that's to help," Michael offered to her, which she just mumbled an answer. "It was a guess on whether or not you were here, and I didn't exactly know who you were. Based on the gunshots, I can take out anyone working for my father, he already as his people here and didn't need anymore breaking in after all. And the only other people really against me are you and Nathan over there. I'm afraid you two can't have a joyous reunion as he is currently testing something for me as you overheard."
"On my own, I would have been less likely to catch you of course, unless I either boosted myself or you made a mistake in sneaking around. Luckily, my loyal hybrid could at least tell someone was here who didn't belong based on scent, well multiple someones, however you are the only one here, correct? And the fact she could basically sense you hiding, or whenever you moved to a different spot. Vibrations, a lucky thing that she is all too sensitive about. I hope that clears things up?"

IC Norman probsbly shouldnβt keep making as point to annoy one or all of the people here, but a small part of him just couldnβt help it. However he kept it all collected anyways. βThere wouldnβt be much of a joyous reunion even if Nathan wasnβt on the floor. We arenβt on good terms,β Norman said darkly, once again glaring down at him. It was rather easy to stir up those old feelings for this. However, he moved on soon enough and nodded to Michael. βIt does, thank you, and yes, I can promise you that Iβm the only one here now. I sent anyone else that was here, back. Thereβs no need for anyone else to put themselves in danger,β he explained, folding his arms.

IC :: "I can't tell, though I don't believe that stopped him from telling you from telling you about the disease?" Michael asked, though he needed no actual answer. "Honestly, that's the only reason most would come here. The disease, not as though anything else matters." He paused before laughing to himself. "I suppose it was better you sent them away, though did they realize you were simply going trap yourself here and likely get yourself killed? If you hadn't, you likely would have had more people on your side here. Not a smart decision there at very least, but it got them out of danger, didn't it?"
"Mm, Michael, I believe that whatever you injected into Nathan has worn off," Cero called out.
"Wait till he gets up, or speaks. Then we can count it over," Michael responded quickly.

Klause gulped, and he would be a terrible person if he didnβt help him out somehow, and despite the fact that he was pretty lenient over helping people, he did not need that riding on his conscience. βRight, and uh, where were you off to in such a hurry?β He asked tentatively as he looked down at him.

IC Norman didnβt deny it, he just shook his head. βYes. However after that, he hasnβt helped me. Iβd rather die than accept his help. I did everything else on my own. Iβm stupid like that,β he explained casually. βAs for sending everyone else away, yes, I knew that it would probably end disastrous for me, and believe me, Iβm sure certain people will be ticked off by my actions, but itβs for the better, in the end,β he said, looking right at Michael.
