Amanda

It left him flushing huh, still he made a comeback of his own. "I didn't think you'd be interested in my cats like that, I'm sorry I don't have any but I could get some." She wrenched herself free from Archer's grip and pretty much ran all the way back to his shop.

"Hurry up, or I'll tear all your furniture apart maybe~"

Tsumiko

Tsumiko gave an equally vague smile in return, relaxing her posture, but keeping her projections in the forefront of her mind. She called hrunting to the front of her mind as well. These assassins were always wily. One could never be too prepared in a fight against them. If she was attacked, she was absolutely ready to kill her without a second thought.

...However she'd rather avoid that outcome if at all possible.

"It's fine." She said curtly. "Think nothing of it. What are you doing up here, anyway?" Her sentences were short and her tone terse, as if she was holding a great deal of emotions back. She could feel a soft throbbing at the back of her mind. What a great way to ruin a perfectly good day.

IS this my just punishment? She wondered if she'd ever do enough to be forgiven.

Thea

"I'm new to this city. This... Nexus, as they call it." Thea adjusted one of her gloves by tugging it more firmly over her fingers, and smiled wider. "So I was taking in the view. Watching the people here as they mull about their humdrum daily lives."

Then the smile faded. "You're planning to attack me, if I move wrong. A wise precaution with all the fear I see in these people."

It was disgusting to see the people live in fear of something other than herself. This was not the anxiety of a populace who were ruled by strong, capable, and properly ruthless leaders. It was families and isolation and monsters in the night waiting for the light of the law to move on so they could strike.

Tsumiko

"Don't make fun of them." Tsumiko said firmly, a fiery determination burning within her eyes. She gave a small nod in response to Thea's observation about her planning on attacking her. It was true, of course. There was no purpose in trying to hide it. "They're doing their best to live their lives as much as any of us. I find them to be admirable."

A strong surge of jealousy burst up from deep within her, which she quickly suppressed. Jealously never did her any good. She just had to work with the hand that she'd been dealt.

Archer

Archer smirked as Amanda shook herself free and decided to run.

He counted to ten under his breath before dashing after her.  He called out, "You know I can just fix it.  Or I could spray you with a water bottle."



Forest

The Camaro was safely parked for the time being, and since Forest had to worry about conserving gas she decided to walk the streets of Nexus.  She made a mental note of everything she needed and wondered the first place to start.  Shelter.  A steady flow of income.  With money I can get clothing and what not.  However how to get money . . .

The vampire frowned.  She had made a fortune in the beginning of her long existence as a mercenary, but that was centuries ago.

"Well, if push comes to shove I could sell my other talents," she said to herself with a sigh.

Thea

The envy pierced through the maelstrom of thoughts and feelings inside this uncanny girl's mind with its magnitude, and gave Thea something to work with here. The Slayer of Lapas wasn't sure what her potential opponent could do, and it was comforting just to have anything at all there.

"One admires most what they do not have themselves. You might say..." She brought her fingers to her own chin and held it thoughtfully. "Admiration is the furthest thing from understanding."

Tsumiko

Tsumiko bit her lip. A small stream of blood began trickling down her chin. "You're wrong. I do understand it." She thought back into the mess that was her past. Usually, it was just a mixed up jumble of chaos, but there were a few memories that persisted even through that. She could distinctly recall talking to an old ailing man; looking up to him, to what he represented. She even now, was able to recall that peaceful moment where he passed away. She remembered watching a boy attempt to vault and fail repeatedly, she remembered a profound sense of loss when her sister was taken away from her family.

"I understand better than anyone how precious their lives are." Her tone was cool and calculated. "You only truly can understand how important something is after you lose what you take for granted."

The trhreats only served to make her pick up the pace, she'd get there first and then....

"Wow rude, threatening to spray water on me, I should bring you to justice." Reaching his shop wasn't that hard, it was just around the block from where she had started, sho of course she wasn't even winded unlike when she had shown up at the café earlier.

Archer

"You threatened to tear up my furniture so it was self defense," Archer said as he stopped just behind her.

He wasn't even breathing hard, it was only a few steps after all.  Nothing compared to his sometimes nocturnal rooftop jumping.

Thea

Ah. She couldn't make out the fine details of what this girl was thinking, but the feelings of old hopes and losses and of the desire to claim them again were all too clear to her. And again a flash of something, purple over red and brown and it was just... strange.

It left Thea feeling off balance even as it armed her further. Like holding a halberd when you were four feet tall. "I see. That is my mistake, then. Please, forgive me - you are exceptionally difficult to read."

Then she sighed, and allowed her guard to visibly fall. "So you do care about them, even as you long for what they have? Then tell me - what ails them?"

Amanda

She sighed loudly, as if she had suffered a masive defeat. "Ok, fine. I won't tear apart your furniture." And just like that, the cat ears and tail receded, restoring her usual appearance.

"Will you let me in or am I gonna have to wait here all day hmm?"

Archer

"You're rather excited to get into my house," he said as he unlocked the door.  "Should I be concerned?"

He opened the door and said, "After you."

Tsumiko

"That's a stupid question. Why should I be expected to know that?" Tsumiko's responce was sharp and came almost instantly, to the point that she practically interrupted Thea. She had no interest in her word games. She was probably just trying to throw her off balance so she could kill her, anyway. Tsumiko's emotions calmed back down as she compartmentalized her issues. She was pretty good at that.

"You seem to think something's wrong with them. Maybe it's you who'se the one who is all messed up."

Thea

This time the empress frowned, displeased at this continued hostility. She tightened one of her hands into a fist, and the distinctive sound of the fabric rubbing together from her gloves echoed in the empty air. "Because you've been here longer than I have, I assume. And you care enough to look. All I feel is the impression that something is hunting these people. Somethings. Or was, at least. That this is not a safe place."

These people needed stability in their lives that they weren't getting. Everything was too fragile right now.

"Now tell me why that is."

Number 346

There are few freedoms a prisoner has the right to. Work, the beat of the sunlight, the lick of the whip, those are the few things that keep the world inside the cage connected from the real world. She was just a girl when her family and village was raided by men. She had to watch as her brothers and sisters were taken one by one, her uncles and parents hung, and the elders executed. Remembering the past was also a freedom to some, but to her this was no different than being adrift at the sea and swallowing saltwater.

This criminal organization must have been strong, considering the amount of prisoners that surrounded her. Not like speaking was allowed in this work camp, much like in any other. The surviving men were drafted as forced labor, and capable women were to work the fields. Those who could not work any longer were to be used as breeding stock. She had not yet broken enough to be selected.

It was a painful life, but the pain and the isolation was not what killed a person. It was acceptance. That was why she thought of this little den as nothing more than a graveyard. She was human, but it didn’t matter. Everyone awaited death equally here.

But tonight, everything changed. She still couldn’t believe it. The sounds of mortars striking and guns blaring woke her up, as did they awaken everyone else. At first, she thought this would be useless. This was not the first time something like this happened. And what would the point be? In the end they would be taken as spoils by someone else and switch places.

But that didn’t happen. The explosions grew more and more intense. For a while,she grew more and more fearful, finally remembering the fear of death she had forgotten for so long. And then, the night began to swallow the prison gates.

Now, much like everyone else, she had stepped out onto the earth billowing with flames and stared in awe at what had happened. All the weapons had been annihilated, fire was swallowing the ground and the communication towers alike. She had only seen the dead amassed in one place, but a warfield devoid of corpses was another story. What were once cages to oppress them were now melted remains of buildings and towers, twisted and pointing upwards. Beasts she would have never dreamt of swallowed the skies above, large beasts of darkness that seemed to swim in the air circled the tallest spire of this camp.

Resting above the now deformed structure was a man with a bored, lonely expression stretching his arms and sleeping peacefully. Birds perched on his body calmly, a serene sight contrasting with the destruction around them. Not one soul could believe this. They were free.

And for the first time in her new life, amidst this hell that now burned even more brithgly than any, she like many others felt hope.

Amanda

"Entering a workshop is always an exciting prospect...." It was true, and with her ability she might be able to gleam somthing she hadn't yesterday, oh the wonders that would soon lie before her. She stepped in after giving her answer. Unsurprisingly it looked the same as yesterday, it would be more suprising if it didn't, it had only been a day after all.

"Don't worry so much, I came prepared." Amanda opened her purse and scrounged through it a bit before finding what she was looking for. Then she tossed it at him with a playful grin etched onto her face. It was a package of extra small condoms.

Tsumiko

Tsumiko sighed and finally sat down. The sun was setting behind her, leaving a long shadow that almost touched Thea's own. "Yes, that's true. I'm sorry for being on edge. I'm not the most popular person." She waved her hand at Thea and frowned. Not at the suspicious newcomer, but at the state of the city at large.

"It's dangerous because there's too much crime and not enough people with the will to root out the rot. Some places are nice and cozy, but, well, you see, a lot of other places are like this. We're in the slums on the exterior ring of the city right now.

All the creatures that prey on humans don't help matters, either."
