An una-VOID-able meeting

---

*I see..... Is it safe to assume Grell wouldn't be too comfortable with being dragged to the infirmary?*

*We have to find someone....*


*Gaster winces, unsure of how to continue for a moment.*

Gaster:That's... I can't not worry, Tom. You aren't feeling well and.... I'm afraid that if something happens, and I'm not here, you could get hurt or worse.
---

*Murderer shrugs, taking another drink from the cup.*

Murderer:It's alright. First time having it, so...

*Murderer trails off, feeling... strange. He ignores it. It's probably just the caffeine.*

---

*Unfortunately for Fiji, Sam isn't here.*


*Fell flinches when Fiji suddenly wakes up. He wasn't expecting him to wake up so soon.*

Fell:.....

*Fell hesitates for a moment before carefully reaching forward and pulling the blanket off of Fiji.*

Fell:Take It easy, Fiji.

*Fell grabs Fiji's bag and reaches into it, hoping to grab something that'll help Fiji.*

*....Doesn't that bag bite?*

---

*Ah. That's certainly something to keep her on her toes.*

*Out of curiosity, which door is Ink and Crystal's next target?*


*Speaking of residents..... Where is Geno?

*Trying to keep track of everyone is like trying to herd cats...*

---

Hemlock:That is true, though it could also be better.

*Hemlock glances back at Bambi's Lies and Promises.*

Hemlock:We're almost there. May I inquire about your mother's current memory status? I'd rather not come off as an off-putting stranger again.

---
*Captain gives a slow nod.*

Captain:I See. Perhaps It Would Be A Good Idea To Thicken Part Of The Ice? You Do Not Have To Tell Her Everything. Just Know That Some Sort Of Explanation, Even A Small Part Of The Truth, Would Be Better Than None.

An una-VOID-able meeting

*Outer carefully helps Grell up and leads them out of Gaster's room. It'll need cleaning later.*

*Whhhere.... is Otone?


*Gaster pauses when Tom notices them, not wanting to crowd the child.*

Gaster:I wanted to make sure you were okay.

*He looks over at Grell, a worried frown making its way onto his face.*

Gaster:Did something Outer say or do make you uncomfortable?

*Inside Gaster's room, Max the blaster whines, unable to get through the doorframe.
---

*Murderer seems slightly amused by the conversation, though he bites back a frown as he notices several other children with scars.

Murderer:....

*He shouldn't ask. They seem happy to be here and don't appear to have any recent injuries...*

*He once again reaches for the cup of coffee, pulling it close. Murderer takes a moment to appreciate the warmth of the cup in his hand.*

Murderer:...They're not the worst names. One of the guys I know calls himself Error, and he's surrounded by error signs.

*He glances down at the coffee cup, taking a small sip. He pauses after a moment, staring at the cup. It tastes a lot like vanilla, but... richer? Almost buttery with a hint of.... salt???*

Murderer:......?

*He's not sure if asking what kind of coffee this is is a good idea. It's not that it tastes bad. It just tastes... different.*

---

*Fell stands there for a moment, frozen, as Rose leaves the room. He touches the spot where Rose kissed, face slowly reddening. He soon snaps out of it, pulling up a chair beside Fiji's bed. He silently watches the meerkat's chest rise and fall.*


*Can... we get a look in Fiji's mind? Is he dreaming?

*Where are Ink and Crystal?*


*Hemlock is silent as she leads Paige further into the VOID, glancing up to keep track of where the strands embodying Bambi's Lies and Promises lead.*

Hemlock:......How are you doing, Paige?


*Oh? Is something there? Or someone?

---
*Captain nods, sparing a glance at Lieu's arm before looking back at the screen.*

Captain:I Understand. It Would Cause More Problems Than It's Worth, Especially If She Told Others.

*He taps Lieu's icon on the screen. Lieu's name pops up, along with his AU and timeline. He studies it for a moment before tapping another option on the screen. It seems like he's still trying to figure this out as well. Eventually, two portal marbles pop out of the machine.*

Captain:This Gives You Two Marbles. One To Leave And One To Return. You Need To Break Them For A Portal To Appear.

*He picks up the marbles.*

Captain:Don't Break Them In Your Hand. Break It On Them Floor Or Against A Wall.

*He hesitates before holding the marbles out to Lieu.*

Captain:While I Am Confident In Your Battle Experience.... Are You Sure You'll Be Okay?


*Awww, Tuí- (;0;)

The Mane Event

---

*While Glory places the objects back into the box, Solar will give any artifact he picks up a glance before setting it on the self of setting it to the side. Any booxs he grabs go back into the other box.*

*He slows down as Glory describes her family's artifact, brow furrowing in thought.*

Solar:Off the top of my head? It could've manipulated luck or helped the wearer locate valuables hidden. Though it also might've had a 'golden touch' ability. Like that one old Earth Pony legend.

*He glances back at Glory, pausing at the sight of the fox amulet.*

Solar:Though that's just a guess. It could do a number of things. Take that amulet in your hoof, for example.

*Solar takes a seat near Glory, taking in the details of the little fox*

Solar:Foxes are associated with.... trickery and being clever, right? That, however, allows the wearer to summon a small, floating flame. The flame is generally harmless, luckily.

*He watches Glory's expression before gesturing to it.*

Solar:Want to try?

The Mane Event

---

*Solar is caught off guard at this request, looking back at the artifacts for a moment. He doesn't think any of these are harmful. He had those in a different box that was marked. He looks back at Glory and gives an uncertain nod.*

Solar:Uh... Sure? I was just putting them away and looking for anything that could help.

*Solar steps back into the room, picking up one of the fallen artifacts. It's a necklace with a bird shaped gem pendant.*

Solar:This one is supposed to sense when danger is nearby and alert the wearer by chirping. It's not the best if you don't want to be noticed, though, and it only works when worn.

*He carefully sets it to the side.*

Solar:I forgot I had it, but it's one of the few that could help now.

The Mane Event

---

*On the other side of the door, Solar lies surrounded by a few artifacts and several large books. Two boxes, now empty, sits on their sides not far from him. He blinks the stars out of his vision, raising a hoof to his head and wincing when he makes contact with a particularly tender spot where a corner of a book hit him.*

Solar:Ow....

*Pulling himself up, Solar gathers the artifacts up, giving a quick glance to make sure they aren't damaged before setting them down in a pile.*

Solar:Yeah, I- I'm okay! I just... had a bit of a tumble.

*The pegasus makes his way to the door, opening it. Despite his disheveled appearance, he offers Glory a small smile.*

Solar:Sorry about that, Glory. I still had a few boxes left and tried grabbing too many at once.
