Hornet shook her head with a smile. "Yeah yeah. Take the compliment with some humility." She teased in return.

Silver struggled for a moment. "I'm not a good guy. They'll take me away, and I need to find a way to make money." Her voice was defeated, and yet still desperate. Almost like she was begging. Klaus paused, then sighed. "Well, if you'd just said so before, I've got connections. I can get you a job, and a good one, too." He turned, fixing his green gaze on the girl. "Look, I won't let them take you in, kay? But you need professional help. Unless my time-travelling brother somehow ended up getting a medical doctorate during the apocalypse, then it'll have to come from a hospital." Silver didn't ask about the brother thing. Instead she just nodded. "F-Fine." She had no other choice.

Klaus stretched a little. "Ben, stay here. Change of plans." He smiled to the faintly-outlined ghost bab before turning and heading down the hall to return the knife.

Ollie opened his mouth to reply, when a flash of light came from Chaos and Holly. "Holly!" he called out, jumping towards the receding light and grasping... Nothing. She was gone. Chaos had taken her. He was left alone in the dark, muted world of the forgotten realm. He had failed. Although ashamed, something fiery burned beneath. "I will find you, Holly! I will bring you back!" he yelled to seemingly no one. "Just wait for me..." Who was he speaking too? Why was he here? His thoughts felt more jumbled than ever, especially with the negative emotions swirling within. That's right; Holly. She was gone. He had failed. He had to get her back, but not now. Not today. He had to get out of here before this place took his memories as well, or he would be on no use. He focused, trying to cross between the forgotten and remembered realm. It took a few tries, but at last, he felt that flicker in his chest that was both new and familiar. The world brightened and the noise increased. He was back in the remembered realm... But where, exactly? His run after Holly had disoriented him. He had to find the others.
(Chaos and Forgotten. It's kind of funny how it makes me think of entropy. How it says something left alone, untouched, forgotten, becomes increasingly chaotic.) --- "Humility? What's that?" Waro teased. It was an uncommon mood he was in; he was more easygoing than usual. Perhaps it was because he was in his 'safe place', perhaps it was because Zed's drink was still in his system. Whatever it was, his smile was more natural than it had been that entire day. "There are some blankets at the foot of the couch if you need," he told her, motioning to a pile of folded blankets.

(Summer, I'll see if I can finish up my new character idea before trying them out. So it might be a while be a while before I am able to roleplay them. If you want to roleplay off and on with me in the meantime, I could offer up Zed or Ray. Zed will probably be in his suit (which I haven't fully planned out), and Ray is just a normal-looking hard-skinned guy with little motivation.)

(I've barely even roleplayed Zed, though he is fun. ^^) (Oh man, yeah. -waves goodbye to the world- XD Yeah no. I wouldn't want to be in bad!Ollie, bad!Holly, or bad!Isaac's way. I plan for Ollie to get a good harness on his power, but if he succumbs to the power, he becomes both more powerful and not in a good way. I have an entire plotline built on that balance, so that is all I'll reveal for now.) (Waro/Blink would be a force to be reckoned with as a bad guy, especially in second form. Every person within sight would be a hostage. In all honesty, Hornet is now the only thing stopping him from being a bad guy. If something happened to her... Look out world.)

(XD Just hurt? I peeked on a hint of a plot that suggested worse. Maybe he thought she was dead, but she wasn't sort of thing? Well, he might not become a permanent bad guy then. It would take him a while to calm down. It would probably take both Isaac and possibly others to take him out of stage two, depending on circumstances. Really, anything is fine. :3 I can go whatever direction with him, so have fun with it.)
"Fine, then go without. The couch should be warm," Waro huffed, his previous amusement fading. What did she want from him? It wasn't like he had planned for her stay. He wasn't the errand-boy of some fancy hotel.

"Couch isn't enough." Hornet grumbled. Oh, the hint was there, and yet she knew he still wore his armor. He was hesitant to touch- let alone comfort.

(Yes, it's absolutely incredible fiction. Simply my favorite work of fiction. Period. But I bring it up because these two remind me heavily of the two main characters. Their interactions are so alike with Hornet and Blink/Waro.)
Hornet let out a harumph once more and made a pouty face, glancing away. "Yeah yeah. You get to that, then."

(Heheh. I guess I'll have to read it then. ^^)
"Oh, and turn out the light before you lie down. It's the switch beside the ladder." Waro flicked his lamp on and turned his attention back to the papers before him. He said no more, simply sat in silence, staring at the same papers. There'd only be the occasional moment when he shifted the pages, or scribbled something down on one.

She didn't move away. Instead, she laid down upon the couch, curling up and shivering slightly. But she watched him work until eventually sleep overtook her.
Meanwhile, Isaac had arrived at everyone's favorite barn. "Yo!" He called in. "I'm looking for Blink! And Hornet! Y'all in here?" How he had found Zed's hideout was anyone's guess. Maybe he sweet talked his way into finding some security camera footage on a gas station nearby or something.

(Oh I got some fun stuff to reveal too...
Might do it soon because I’m going on a trip soon and I don’t like suspense myself so :3.
Little hints have been peppered throughout leading to it though, starting from, like Page 200 or so? When the siblings were introduced.
I feel like the biggest one might be Worlds Collide however...
Or you know, the clues from interactions.
Just another: Holly’s not as innocent as she may seem :3.)

(I feel like the whole coughing up flowers disease might have been an undertone but idk.)
(I feel like throwing Lotus at Blink and Hornet one day because boyo would that be a unique one. I could see that fight stopping quickly because Lotus gets confused by Needle and by Blink’s power.
Hornet: *throws needle to catch Lotus*
Blink: *Switches with Lotus*
Lotus: Oh my stars just please stop.)

(Usually they symbolize either the loved one, or lovers favorite flowers, or colors.
It’s a actual fantasy disease, I didn’t create it so, uh, kudos to whoever did? It usually lasts until love is returned or the affected person dies by choking on petals of thorns.
It’s dark.)

(Those deadly flowers did crack Blink open a bit. ^^ Just enough. Heheh. Lol. That would be interesting. I'll post Ollie again sometime tomorrow; I seem to like writing long posts for him. XD) --- (And here, all of Zed's traps have been sprung, and Isaac is just fine. XD That would be a new one for Zed.)
Zed flicked his gaze from one screen to the other, as Isaac walking into the old building. A mischievous grin crept onto his spotted face, and he cracked his knuckles before letting them hover over the complex keyboard beneath the screens. Let the games begin...
A light flashed underneath a closed door to Isaac's left. This wasn't the closet from earlier, no, this time it was a small empty room. Oddly enough, it had a metal floor. The rest of the building was made of old creaky wood. --- After an hour, Waro glanced over at Hornet. She was sleeping at last. Good. He let out a sigh, and lay his papers down. He had been so close to telling her about Fernando's death, the worst of all three. It was at that point, he realized that he really didn't want her to see him as a monster. If he had anything to do about it, she'd never have to see or hear about that part of him. She was shivering. Poor thing must really be cold. He stood and took off his leather jacket. Quietly and ever so gently, he lay it over her. It was still warm from his body heat. Turning the lamp off, he sat on the floor, against his desk. He remained watching Hornet for a time, until his eyes drifted closed and his head sagged forwards. He drifted into a deep much needed sleep. He normally wasn't a heavy sleeper, but having not slept in a couple days, he needed it.

Hornet awoke after a good long time, to find herself cuddling a leather jacket. It took a moment to wake up and realize whose it was, and when she did her face heated up bright red. She glanced over and saw him, laying there. However, the coat was warm still. She found herself simply snuggling back into a comfortable position and laying there, halfway between awake and asleep, glancing at him every now and then and holding his jacket.

Isaac glanced over and smiled. "Oh, I've seen stuff like this before. Probably an elevator, right? Thanks for the first-class help." And he walks right over and steps in, onto the metal floor.

Waro twitched in his sleep. He began to mutter incomprehensible things under his breath. --- (And he doesn't sit in front of his screens all day, he gets an alert when someone is near his base. XD)
"Not quite," Zed mused to himself. He pressed a couple buttons, before standing. Time for the climax of the show.
The floor suddenly fell away, splitting in the middle and dropping to both sides. It was a free fall for about ten feet, before becoming a very steep slide. Suddenly there was a sharp downward turn, dropping into a pitch black room. The tunnel would close behind him. If he felt around he might find out that the room was actually a small cell made of a very strong metal. --- Ollie was back... and his arm was gone again. He had placed his hand on the bandage to make sure. He was to his former, weak self.
Now, to find Robin. Ollie didn't have a phone. He had never really needed one, because he was always with one of the others. Not only that, but he had no money. He was practically living off of Robin's family. After asking for some directions (which was awkward because the guy kept staring at his missing arm), he found himself back at the building that he had been in with Robin and Holly. This was where it had begun. He recalled the conversation he had with Holly, and his eyes misted. Taking in a deep breath, he retraced the steps he had taken in the forgotten realm, back to the building Holly had fallen off of. He doubted that Robin was still up there, but he had to make sure. He walked into the building and took the elevator to the highest floor it could go. From there, he took the stairs. By the time he got to the top, his chest was itching up a storm. He pushed himself off the railing and into the door that opened up to the rooftop.

"Waro." Hornet murmured. He was disturbed in his dreams, and she knew the torment that caused. "Waro, wake up."
Isaac yelped and tucked himself in, ready for a hard landing, but the slide took all of that away. Instead he was alone in the dark, and with a grunt of dismay, he felt around. A moment later he glowed with the faintest of yellow light, like a small flame along his body. "Son of a- hey!"

Waro's hand twitched to his side, to where he still wore his staffs. "I didn't mean to, Lily..." he muttered. --- There was bars on one side of the cell. Isaac's yellow flames made long shadows in the large room beyond, but the light didn't reach the far recesses of the room.
Oh? Isaac glowed. Now that was something unexpected, but thoroughly intruiging. It made the name Burn make a lot more sense. "Why do you seek Blink and Hornet?" a deep, intimidating voice boomed from what seemed to be coming from everywhere at once.
