IC Norman sighed. βConsidering this was an utter failure, resulting in the one thing that could save those that are sick, being destroyed, my brother getting shot, and me back in a cell. Itβs okay, you can say it. This was worthless, itβs caused nothing but problems,β he said and sighed, closing his eyes. There wasnβt anything that they could do, this wasnβt like before, things always had a bit of a chance before. This time, they didnβt. βWhatβs even the point any more?β
-
Nikolas tensed up for a minute before he let out a heave and slouched back. βFine, I will wait one day. One day. After that, I am going after him, and I wonβt get captured,β he added, folding his arms. βRage is a very good motivator, you would be surprised what I can do when angry.β The thing was, Nikolas hadnβt been this close to snapping since...it didnβt matter, but it had been awhile since he felt like this. Even Boo hadnβt gotten him this upset.

IC :: "You were close, sure, maybe close wasn't good enough... You made an effort. Things went wrong. The only thing that is the most difficult to solve is the first issue that made this entire thing a failure as you say." Nadia said, she wasn't going to deny the fact. "I'm sorry, that the sample was destroyed. Tat a cure can't be made and.... And your brother can't be saved."
"You'd be surprised, Nadia," the door to the cell had opened. Nadia was surprised she hadn't initially noticed, but Cyrus had entered nonetheless. The words he said didn't process to her do to the fact. "I apologize for interrupting, however I was hoping to speak to the one who broke in. I wasn't aware you were visiting him, much less anyone would."
Nadia stared at the crow hybrid carefully, before nodding lightly. "Sorry Norman, I'll come back soon. Hopefully with some good news or words from Nathan." She slowly left, unnerved to leave Norman with the crow, but Cyrus had no reason to harm the squirrel.
--
Shiva was absolutely, completely surprised he agreed with that idea. "Okay. And I completely believe that," But sometimes when somebody was angry, they didn't think straight... She would be willing to join him in the case that they did have to go there. but, she also kinda figured that by the next day, Niko would be very able to go against the people there. As long as rage went better against calm thinking , it would be fine...

IC Norman looked over at the newcomer, raising his brow. He did feel a little more uneasy with the newcomer there, as he didnβt know him. But at this point, Norman couldnβt muster up enough emotion to care. β...Hey, donβt think I know you. Whoβre you?β He questioned, letting his legs slid down onto the floor, hands falling to his sides and tail in front of him as he eyed the crow hybrid suspiciously.
-
Nikolas grunted, walking off in a different direction than before. βI will wait a day because Kai will need someone with him once heβs awake, and he would panic without one of us there. But if this ends with Norman dead, or damaged, I will partially blame you,β he warned, though in that case, it would mostly mean silence on his end. Nikolas had never been as...easy going as his other brothers, and here, where the only people he felt comfortable around, were either hurt, doomed to die, or captured, he couldnβt help but feel extremely alienated around the others. It didnβt seem crazy to him, that he would want his brothers safe and with him again.

IC :: "You are correct, you do not know me. My name is Cyrus Baker-Adams, but Cyrus works. You are W5, correct? Ah, unless you would rather me call you by a different name?" The crow asked, his own emotion not really present. The crow walked around the small room in the cage, keeping his eyes trained on Norman.
--
Shiva nodded in silence for that. If he did end up hurt, she would take some blame, as Niko wanted to go help him immediately. But currently, this was the better choice she believed. And one way or another they would get him back. As Nikolas left, she went back towards the room with everyone else in it.

OOC Scene for Niko and Shiva?
IC βNorman,β he said simply. βMy name isnβt W5, itβs Norman. W5βs just the number the scientists gave me, itβs cruel really, giving people numbers. Acting as if they arenβt people,β he said, looking back up at the ceiling. βIf youβre going to call me anything, then my name is Norman. Norman Walters,β he explained, glancing back to him for a moment. βWhyβre you here?β

OoC :: Yeah.
IC :: "Ah, then nice to meet you face-to-face Norman Walters. His thought when giving all of you numbers to identify you by was certainly an odd choice, however I can understand it personally. But that is a simple bias. I'm here as I wanted to talk with you. Or rather, try and figure out some things. Would you mind me asking you questions?" Cyrus asked as if it were nothing. He held his tongue about giving the hybrids numbers, as he was a hybrid himself at this point. He did not wish for questions about himself to be flung about.

IC Norman shrugged, gesturing to him. βSure, ask away. Canβt promise Iβll give you a straight answer, but I wonβt stop you from asking,β Norman told him, standing up and moving to a different place in the cell, sitting back down again. He wasnβt handling all of this well, he wasnβt even going to try, not really. What was the point? As far as he was concerned, there wasnβt one.

IC :: "What do you know of the people that are normally here?" Cyrus asked. "Michael, the spider, the vulture, the twins, any of them. How dangerous they are, what abilities they have, literally anything about them." The crow's eyebrows furrowed as he moved to an opposing spot from Norman. His lips pressed thin as he finished, waiting for any information he may possibly need, and he expected things he already knew repeated. That was, if W5- Norman knew anything about them.

IC Norman shrugged carelessly. βIβve had limited experiences with Michael. But from what I can gather, heβs obviously a scientist, doesnβt mind experimenting on others even if it hurts them, he chose to release this disease, which means he lacks empathy for people and hybrids alike at this point, which indicates heβs had people push him to that point, wether on purpose or on accident. He seems to know a lot about hybrids yet seems too young to have been one of the original scientists as he looks to be around the same age as some of the older hybrids. Iβm thinking heβs still been involved with hybrids for awhile. Maybe, parents? I donβt know, like I said, I havenβt dealt with him much and most of this is just assumptions,β Norman started.
The thing was, he was always gathering information about others, even on a subconscious level. Now that he had lost his original purpose, why not use that information to put it together for sometching? His brain needed something to do.

IC :: Cyrus found it amusing he picked the one Cyrus needed the least information on. He found it more amusing Norman picked up on many true things about the scientist. "His father created this entire experiment of hybrids. He grew up as friends with several hybrids ue to that fact. He learned it was better not to. He has empathy for very few, you are unlikely to meet the one person he has ever shown emotion to, and honestly genuinely cared for. Otherwise, I'm very aware of him, and you happen to be very on point and correct about that."
Cyrus could go a while about the Hartington family, how it formed, how it got so screwed up. This was neither the time or place to, more specifically not with someone so unknown. He had to admit, he partially regretted telling Norman what he did tell. "What about the others?"

IC Norman glanced at him for a second before continuing. βThe spider hybrid is named Buibui, sheβs always been a bit of a loose canon, but loyal, far too loyal for any sane hybrid to be. Which brings up the point that sheβs clearly not sane. Hasnβt completely lost it, but isnβt all there. Sheβs an amiable foe and someone Iβve found myself at ends with many times. Not quite so fondly nicknamed: She-devil, by my family. Used to have a weird, personal vendetta about some jerk named Indigo. Seems to got over it now, something seems a little off about her right now, actually, but I canβt quite figure out what,β Norman explained, having not paid as much attention to Buibui while she was there.
βI believe the other one, the vulture, isnβt as big of a threat as he first appeared,β he continued, moving onto Cero. βHe seemed somewhat hesitant before, which makes me wonder about him. I donβt know of him very much though. Though Iβm fairly certain heβs a cannibal-though I also have my suspicions about Buibui in that department. He seems...chaotic but not entirely insane, nor loyal to a fault, like the spider,β he said, gesturing with his hand slightly.

IC :: "She has some issues, I'll admit. She has reason to, I suppose you haven't heard then. Michael saved her life as a child, convinced his dad to inject her with a vial that made spider hybrids. She survived, and for her life decided to be loyal. She thinks of herself as their family, none of them agree. Knowing that she can hold long time grudges is good though," Cyrus said in response. It wasn't much to tell about her life to someone if they were going to end up dead anyway.
As he spoke about Cero, he felt more compelled to listen. "I don't suppose he has shown he can be extremely loyal to one person? I'm glad to hear he doesn't pose nearly as much as a threat the others believed though. And it's likely once we find..." he mumbled off to himself, before speaking louder. "Sorry, rambling. Thank for that, and.... anything about the twins?"

IC Norman looked at him for a good few seconds before he looked back at the ceiling. βIf I wasnβt feeling so empty right now, Iβd be even more suspicious of you. Lucky for you, Iβm not getting involved in whatever sort of problems there are between you and whoever else, probably the people from here,β he said, resting his head back. βAnyways, right, the twins. Nathan can turn into a snow leopard, heβs the cute one of the two, but not exactly that bright. No offense to him, of course. Heβs just really bad at picking up on signals. Like...really bad at it. Anyways, loyal to his sister, not so much everyone else. Good heart, not that great at expressing it. Wants to help but isnβt willing to be too risky, has a bit of a temper, bit naive at first too, or at least, he was. That seems to have been snuffed out of him. I bet heβs withholding a lot of anger and resentment, good fighter, though he could work on his speed,β Norman explained casually.
βNadiaβs really smart, tends to hold grudges even when theyβre invalid. Less reckless than her brother but no less dangerous. Bit annoying, but thatβs more of a personal opinion than an observation. Recently went through some stuff, has a right to feel anger towards someone here, has a pretty good hold of her emotions, a bit more serious and calculative than her brother, very loyal to the people she cares about, though itβs a small list,β Norman finished and looked back to Cyrus. βWhy ask? I mean, Iβm always up for showing off my skills, but still.β

IC :: "First time I've been so glad someone has such a lack of emotion. Well, perhaps not the first time." The information was good. So far the main issue with anyone was loyalty stance. It was good as the main two he was told to focus on were best fit for Wesley's goals. However, gaining their loyalty was the difficult part, Cyrus supposed. And that was just based on one person's observations as well, so Cyrus could not 100% trust every word to be absolute truth. It was useful. "Research. Though with those skills, you could certainly be useful as well. I suppose, luckily for you I have no doubt you wouldn't agree to any offers I give you. It's a shame, really."

IC Norman grunted slightly. He knew it was a good skill to have, it lead to him being a good ally or bad enemy. βOh lucky me. Now, you mustβve had a reason for stopping by, and it seems a little foolish to think I would even know much about these people without knowing me and my skill, so, whyβd you stop by and visit?β He asked, dropping the subject of the others for now.

IC :: "I didn't expect you to know much about them, admittedly. But any source is good at the moment, even a source from someone I haven't personally met before this point. My reason for stopping by was completely true and honest. You're rather suspicious of everyone and anyone, I assume. I can't blame you for assuming I had different motives for visiting you, I'm a stranger who is currently working alongside not so friendly people. But I don't prefer to lie," Cyrus answered. He could claim he was insulted by Norman suggesting he wasn't telling the truth why he came here, but he really wasn't.

IC Norman looked at him for a moment before accepting the answer and looking back to the ceiling. βI see. So, got any other questions or is that it?β He asked, figuring there might be some more, If not, Norman had some questions of his own he would like answered. But until then, he didnβt mind simply answering any questions that Cyrus might have. He could see no reason not to tell them anyways.

It was unlikely the red squirrel knew where it would be located, but that was the crow's primary job here. To find the case, and then they could all leave this dreaded stupid place.

IC βCanβt say I have. Sorry, I was a bit distracted with other matters to look for some random case,β Norman told him, putting his focus back to the hybrid. βNow, if itβs all the same to you, I have some questions that I think you could answer,β he told him, carefully looking Cyrus over, he was curious about him, if anything else, and it was a nice distraction from everything else that he was dealing with.

The crow could handle some questions of course,b in fact he was curious to know what the squirrel hybrid was curious to know. Funny, wasn't that? Though, it was a shame he hadn't seen what he was looking for, however understandable with the situation Cyrus was aware of.

IC Norman leaned forward slightly, giving him an intrigued look. βYou said that your name was Cyrus Baker, right? Well, naturally itβs not to uncommon for hybrids to have taken upon a last name for themselves. Myself as an example, however, earlier you mentioned something about disagreeing about the numbers thing. Which again, might make sense if you were a hybrid working for the labs, which again, you could be. But the hybrids that worked with the scientists were some that everyone knew of, we hated them, actually. And there was never a mention of a crow hybrid, and I already know about Blaire, which leaves me to wonder. You havenβt been a hybrid all your life, have you?β Norman questioned, tilting his head.

IC :: "Baker-Adams," he corrected. His previously emotionless face had the slightest smile as Norman picked up on these facts. He was surprised a kid he had barely met noticed first out of all the people here though, as the people here seemed to busy to consider that there was an unknown crow hybrid here. "I'm also older than the oldest hybrid from this place. However, all in all you are correct. It was a more recent thing that happened, I'm a test in progress actually. Or, the beginning of one, a test I volunteered for even."

IC βBaker-Adams then,β he said, clearly not caring all that much. βPoint is, that means both Michael and whoever you work for, are trying to recreate the hybrids, which is a terrible mistake,β Norman started, looking at him closely. βThe original purpose was to create the perfect human, right? Well youβre going about it the wrong way, and if I have to say so myself, the world doesnβt need more hybrids. Why create more?β He questioned.
