Welcome to Gaia! ::

"... Lookatitadorableahhhhh-" She was still squealing, but this time, softer and directed at the little ink-creature on Lattice's hand; for now, she did not notice the others in the room, too preoccupied with tickling it with a finger, not caring that it was just getting more ink on her.

"I name thee Inky," She declared, straightening up and beaming before turning to walk into the roo- She froze, staring at the students already in the room, a faint blush creeping up her cheeks; she must look like a terrible mess of inky destruction right now!

Before she could say anything, she caught sight of Shun's NOT-SO-SUDDEN man chest (seriously, Blade, your characters seem to like flashing at Lizzy) as well as Mot's very transparent wet shirt. Immediately, her blush darkened, and she lowered her head.

First thought: Mac's man chest was much better. Ugh, now she missed him more.
Second thought: MAN CHEST NOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo-

Despite that, she inhaled sharply before looking up with a smile, "I am glad to see you all in one piece!" Okay, so her voice might had gone a pitch higher, but at least she wasn't running around flailing at anyone! Improvement!

Hel actually wasn’t laughing at Mitsu because she thought it was pathetic, no, she actually was appreciating the ghoul’s attempt to cheer her up, no matter how silly it was. But her laughter was cut short as Mot snapped at her, and immediately Hel was back on the defensive. “What?” She snapped back. “I wasn’t mocking her! I was—“ The valkyrie cut herself off at the sudden appearance of Lizzy from another door, and then to add insult to injury, she caught Mot’s expression when the demoness entered. Smiling. Blushing.

Gross.

The reaper felt a sudden pang of resentment at the poor pink haired ghoul, and she had done nothing to earn it, and just as quickly as it had appeared, it had disappeared, and instead, Hel could be upset at Mot….had she really been passed over so easily for Lizzy? “…Shameful, Mot, try to keep yourself in check, yes?” The reaper sneered at the cowboil lowly. “She’s not your ghoulfriend.” Uncalled for? Totally. Hell hath no fury like a …Hel…scorned though?

The ghoul let out an aggravated huff, but had enough sense in her quiet rage to give Mitsu’s shoulder a somewhat appreciative pat. The attempt didn’t go unappreciated, but now Hel was back to being sour. She squeezed the lycan’s shoulder before releasing her, and marched over to pick up her bag. She then marched over to where Shun was, and plopped down on the floor, leaning against the wall with her brows furrowed. Hel then set to taking off her apron and boots, wringing the clothes out a bit aggressively.

The newly dubbed Inky cooed up at Lizzy and seemed quite happy with its surroundings until there was a notable tension in the air causing the Engraver to tense up and poor little Inky to duck down into the palms of the Engraver that held it. She stared down at her little friend and then looked around a bit.

...Tension she felt it now. She shifted her shoulders uneasily, "It seems we have stepped into a situation."

Familiar voices, voices which were tense and upset, Lattice wasn't sure how to deal with it so she dropped into silence quietly petting Inky to try and calm her own nerves. Inky quietly leaned into the touch uncertain what to make of the new situation.

"Situation...?" She echoed softly, turning partially to look at Lattice before frowning; she hadn't noticed it before, lost in her own little world, but... She briefly glanced at the members of Hel's team, realizing that none of them looked happy or even contented... Except for Riyo anyway.

Well, and Shun, but the reaper had never looked happy before, and his contented face looked like his usual face.

Hel leaving in a huff for another part of the room left her wondering if perhaps she had done something wrong, not knowing that it was closer to the truth than she knew. Were they fine before? She frowned, taking a step back, closer to the closed door that they had stepped out from, "Um... Sorry if we disturbed anything...?" She bowed her head/

She wanted to give everyone a hug. And a pet on their backs... It was just difficult to, when she felt that the atmosphere could potentially choke someone.

Yeah. That was what he thought. Letting out a scoff as Riyo turned away, Shun sat back down before looking through his bag to see if there was anything else that needed to be set out. He took out the flashlight and set it aside. It would need to be completely dried before they could try using it at all.

It seemed there was something going on between the two valkyries as they practically broke out into a fight. It ended as quickly as it started, but that wasn't the end of things.

When Mitsu took out a stuffed bear, Shun stared at her for a moment or so. Why did she bring that? It was probably going to end up damaged and it did nothing in terms of helping them survive. With a sigh, he shook his head to himself, narrowing his eyes as something came up between Mot and Hel once again.

"Jack dammit you two," he hissed under his breath. This was going to be a problem after all. What the hell was wrong with his team? Seriously? That was the fourth or fifth fight that broke out since they arrived.

He might have to speak with them if this persisted.

Grumbling lowly, he glanced over at the werewolf as she sat back down by him. She was looking rather dejected from all of this. Running a hand through his wet hair in frustration, he soon placed it onto her shoulder. His gaze briefly flicked over at the group of girls entering, noticing it was Lizzy's lot. However, his attention soon shifted back to the girl next to him.

"Mitsu, do you agree with me that our fellow teammates should just move the ******** on from whatever the hell is eating at them? This dissent is going to get us all killed if this keeps up."

((Entering from the hub))

Third to stagger through the doorway was the frost demon, eyes still squinting and re accustoming herself to the light around her. That.....hadn't been so bad, save the soiled clothes and inky hands. Edel wondered how Vieve was doing though – the ghoul had been....crushed up against the ceiling.

But before she could look back and find her, Edel noticed that yes, they were now in a different place, thank you Lizzy. They were also now in the company of a few more people. Students. None of which Edel would recognise but from the looks of it, they were pretty drenched. Of course, it would never be good to ask. Instead, the ghoul would just give a generic wave to everybody before shuffling off to where Lizzy and Lattice were -

squealing about something.

A cute little blob of ink, that's what it was. “Hello there little friend,” she greeted it, bending down to give it a little wave. The ink creature – now called Inky, thank you again Lizzy, bobbed about on the spot and gave a little twirl. Edel was too cool for squealing did not squeal like the other two, but boy was she just melting inside.

And then the tension in the room hit her, killing the mood. Edel tried not to look at the others who were clearly unhappy with the situation. It sounded even worse than the previous FMC situation.

After moving back toward Shun to sit down, Mitsu turned to look at the reaper as he placed a hand on her shoulder. It seemed like most of the team had tempers that could easy flare and Mitsu was having a had time combating that. Even Shun sounded irritated.

"I-I don't think they will let it get in the way of our safety." She hoped. "I just wish everyone would stop fighting." And just then Hel piped up again looking toward Riyo. Almost silently Mitsu lifted th bear again as if to say 'please be happy.'
