Crest

Crest kept his glare on her for a bit, especially for that smirk on her face. She was not the one who was just fed a devil plant. Eventually though he nodded, it seemed like a good a plan as any. And so he gestured for her to lead the way.

It was her idea after all.

Rebeca

Rebeca stuffed her hands into her jacket as the woman’s thoughts came to the forefront. Lands filled with snow, a massive castle, and vampires of both friends and enemies. It was an odd experience, converting sound into images. But it still happens none the less.

She did not let her faze her, at least externally. “Yep, it’s kinda a no-no zone for people. Also a lot of people don’t like talking about it.” She shrugged, “They really don’t like being reminded there is an entire population that basically views them as food.”

It scared people, even if they didn’t acknowledge it. People are just afraid of things bigger than them; it’s why most people in the Nexus don’t even talk about the supernatural. Because it is something more, something bigger than them, something they cannot control or really even defend against.

It was even more horrifying for Rebeca, because the supernatural could not hide from her, and because she understood how everyone felt. She was more aware of it as a side effect. And it horrified her.

She kept talking about the city, and I sort of filtered it into the backdrop as I sorta of just... looked around. I looked at shops, looked at offices, looked at people going home.

There's one thing I noticed: Wasn't even that late, and everyone was looking over their shoulder, shops were closing with steel grates and offices had the whole steel grate security from Die Hard coming out of the walls like they were expecting a terrorist assault, or the police in an RV.

I guess with stuff like vampires, werewolves and ogres (oh my) running around, people were legitimately scared.

Hm.

Hmmmmm.

The slightest hint of nervousness settled in my chest as my head developed twitches directed at looking at the surroundings.

HEY DIMENSION MAGIC, SURE BE A NICE TIME FOR MY HUGE-ASS WINCHESTER KNIFE.

...Nope, no such luck.

Before I'd even taken notice of how long we'd been moving, I saw it in the distance. In the long reaches of Port Manor Road, rested a castle 'pon which lay the glowing words: MMA CHOPPERS, with a backdrop of a motorcycle ridden by a fist.

...That's the most ridiculous thing I'd ever seen, and I wanted in. I walked up to the door, dead to the world and the women around me, and saw through the closed glass door, to a sheet with numbers on it. I looked at a street corner where some ugly British streetclock was sitting, and then returned my gaze to the door.

I should have expected it to close early, in a dangerous city. Still, the sadness rousing up in my bosom made me say a single thing to the sweet air of the winter night:

"Fuck!"

And so, in front of a closed gym, I was sad.

Caedia

The dragon slayer began to move as soon as she saw Crest gesture. They kept a relatively slow pace as Caedia glanced back at the tall building every once and a while to be sure of their position. However most of the buildings seemed to be closed considering how late it was. Eventually the two companions stumbled upon a ruined building.

 It seemed to be made primarily of wood and looked less like a home and lacked any style or design. It was more like a giant box with windows and a door than a house. Time had eaten away at the austere building and had rotted away many of the walls. But from what Caedia could see and hear it was empty and that was the most important thing.

The Arisen walked up to the house and walked in through the giant hole in the side of the eastern wall. It seemed mostly barren but it would do. Then she called out to Crest. "We can stay here tonight."

Forest

The blond frowned and said, "Yellow namblies, isn't that sort of really racist . . ."

Then the odd fellow offered both his liquor and marijuana to them.  Lancer took the liquor offered.  Then again, no Irish warrior worth their weight in salt would turn down free liquor.  Forest frowned at the offering and shook her head, holding up her hand.

"I'll pass.  Besides, it would be wasted on me.  I can't get drunk or high from alcohol or plant matter," she said with a sigh.  She left out the part where magical enriched blood made her tipsy and start hitting on any male she thought was attractive. 

She asked, "What the bloody hell is a namblie anyway?"


Saber

Saber couldn't help the smile that spread across her face when Mia asked Rin why her smile was fake.  She knew exactly how much of herself that Rin kept hidden from others.  The blond turned to Shirou and said, "I will be more than glad to explain things.  However, it would be ill advised to do so on an empty stomach."

Then she frowned as she noticed the stain in his pants, but said nothing.

She did notice Mia's behavior towards Forest.  There was something off about the girl, and the former king's instincts were screaming about how much of a danger the child was.  Unbalanced and powerful.  A very dangerous combination.

If Forest was in danger because this not-child had a wrong impression, then Saber was honor bound to protect her adviser.

She did say, "Officer Riggs made an uncouth comment about Forest's lack of attire, which she presumably lost when she fought you, Shirou.  Not to mention she lacks body heat and it is a very frigid night.  Also, any establishment that we would have taken her to in that state would have turned us away.  Knowing her, she left for our benefit and to hunt the monster who slaughtered that family."

She hoped that her reasonable explanation would pacify the not-child.

"Ah no," Henderson says, "Not the yellow you're thinking of. See, tha' muckle darmed cult calls itself the 'Disciples of the Yellow King' and they wear yellow all the damn time. They've got the ugliest damn poodles too, what with all the tentacles and stuff..."

Henderson take a swallow from the remaining bottle, quickly followed by another hit of the Necro-blunt, sighing out a cloud of weed smoke soon after as the pleasant burning of the rum fills him once more.

"Can't get high, you say?" Henderson asks, "Maybe not off your average street-trash, though that sounds unlikely enough as is, but this..." Henderson takes another hit, releasing it in a cloud of weed-smoke that's much thicker than it should be, "This is beyond compare. It's not just the weed, it's the paper too. Can't really describe it myself, but...well, don't knock it till you try it, I've got enough for another cigar or two, so don't hold yourself back for my sake either."

"As for what namblies are," Henderson says, "They're the Gnome-stealing scum of the earth."

"It's nothing, really," Adjutor admits, making his way over, "It's just how I ended up. Let's just hope the owner of this place isn't back yet."
Elyssa turned around, switched to thermal vision, and did a quick scan of the first story. "No heat signatures down here, and the ruckus would have woken anybody if they were above us."

Besides, Elyssa thought, I have slain Knights and Elven Saboteurs with little issue. I would be able to handle anyone here.

The Warmonger than grabbed ahold of Adjutor's wrist and almost-dragged him through the wall. "Now what?" She asked when they were on the other side.

"Well," Adjutor says with a yawn, "Personally, I'm a bit tired out by today's events."

With that, he vaguely gestures towards Laivatain, the discarded two-hander collapsing into a fiery mass as it returns to Adjutor, regaining a physical shape as he reaches the spot he was at earlier. Adjutor then stabs the blade down into the the concrete again and sitting down once more.

"So you insisted on leaving the shelter of the building...only to crouch down in the shadow of it out in the elements?" Elyssa asked slowly

"I'd rather not get kicked out of here too, and I've slept in worst places," Adjutor admits.

This is still pretty shitty.

Well, it's the best we have right now, and probably the best we deserve.

"Besides, if the weather gets too bad, I can just head into the shadow itself."

Cu Chulainn

Cu threw back his head as he guzzled the amber color of the whiskey down his throat. Lifting the bottle from his lips, he wiped it off with his arm. The Servant clicked his tongue in faint satisfaction. This was better than that weak sauce of a liquor that calls itself booze.

Quote
"I can't get drunk or high from alcohol or plant matter."

"That's a damn shame, lass," he looked back at Forest with honest pity, "You can't even enjoy the joys of good booze. You've got my sympathies."

Alcohol was one of the few things that made life a lot easier by putting someone in a buzz. To be deprived of it is just sad.

Quote
"As for what namblies are," Henderson says, "They're the Gnome-stealing scum of the earth."

"A cult that steals gnomes?" he asked with a raised eyebrow, "What would they even want with them?"

Ezra Longinia


Ezra smiled like a knife, sharp and cold. One of the vampires burst away in a flash of speed, and the spearman let her go. Four on one was preferable, anyways.

"What a nice family of cowardly fools. Come on then, boys and girls, let's see what you have in store. Ah, while I don't like to brag," He responded to something the crazy woman had said before as the spiky-haired man started to whistle.

"I suppose if there's a 'King of Swords', you could call me a 'King of Spears'? I hope you can take me alive, really. As long as even one of you can move, I'm sure it won't be too hard. Now... are you going to come to me, or am I going to go to you?"

"These can make you more energetic, Remei-san! Just tear off the wrapping and bite into one of the bars! You should try it!"

"Yo ho ho! Ye are so loveable and Yukina, I will eat this Calory Mate with haste!", and as he pompously uittered these words, Lorenzo took hold one of the packets, looking at it quizzically for a while. Suddenly, his eyes lightned up as he finally showed signs of understanding.

"Ah...", he gasped, before seizing the wrapping between is teeth. Struggling to tear it off, he bit and gnashed at the plastic for an excruciatingly long time. But determination and sheer will made it so that after what felt like an eternity, the plastic simply... gave up.

Laughing triumphantly, the pirate held the bar high up to the skies, it seemed as if light emanated from the CalorieMate, but it was just a vivid hallucination that only Lorenzo could experience. Eyes dazzling in awe, he looked at the bar and with a sharp movement, brought it into his mouth.

Instantly, he felt a shock trough his whole body, a strange tingling sensation pierced him as he chewed the CaloryMate. He instantly felt a surge of... power flowing trough his very veins, and while his mind couldn't comprehend what was happening, the body couldn't help but revel into the unknown ecstasy that was the cheese flavoured bar...

The room completely quiet, all eyes now turned to him, awaiting his verdict. Lorenzo simply grabbed the glass of rum, taking a sip before closing his eyes.
"Thats DAMN good!", roared the pirate before taking yet another bar.

Forest

Forest laughed at the offering of the blunt and said, "I really doubt that could do anything for me."

She then looked at Lancer, shook her head and sighed.  She said, "Nae, liquor stopped doing anything for me a ridiculous time ago.  One of the 'perks' of what I am.  If I want a buzz I have to look elsewhere."


The Fanged Foursome

Drusilla smiled and said, "I think you should come to us, Dearie.  Look into my eyes.  Be in me . . ."

Her sing-song voice was low, hypnotic and her dark blue eyes compelling.  There was a pull to them, a demand for Ezra to listen and to obey.

"I think you should come to us, Dearie.  Look into my eyes.  Be in me . . ."

Ezra raised in eyebrow at her, hands tightening on the Lance. Its weight reassured him, familiar as it was, a great weapon that was a part of him and all of his family before him. He could not be lead astray when such a terrible beauty was already before him to begin with–!

"Is that the best you've got? Fine, then. This has gone on long enough."

A kick.

Ezra sprung off of the ground, holding the lance tight to his body. Everything he had said before, what he had said now implied that Drusillia would be his target; but he shifted at the last second, and the deadly tongue of the Lance thrust out at Spike, intent on destroying him once and for all.

Even a touch from one of the greatest holy weapons of all time would sear the flesh of a vampire. The blade itself would kill.

Noel was walking through the park, holding a notebook in her hand. She mused to herself, occasionally writing something down.

“Snow looks like a bunch of little angels. The stars in the sky glisten softly...”

She stopped, looking up at the sky in frustration.

“Oooohhh, but what comes next?”

She sat down on a nearby bench, absent mindedly chewing her pen.

"What to do..."
