[ steps: 54 > choosing to move down to 40 ]
Ying's heart fell in despair as her brother didn't notice her. She didn't expect him to- she was short in a sea of relatively average people, and none of her words made noise. It was definitely him though. She ran up the stairs, moving past him, and in front of him, to the point where he had to see her.
There was a tiny moment of insecurity as she waited for Jing respond, but her opened her arms and she didn't waste time flinging herself into them. Jing was warm, and he was home.
"Jing you died and I thought I'd never see you and I-I didn't know- I want to go- I-" And then she submitted herself to just openly, but silently, bawling in the middle of the stairs. She didn't even see Nuk or G, or anything but the fabric on Jing's chest. "Don't leave me again you big idiot."

Ying's sudden appearance startled the shape-shifter, so much that he tripped and stumbled a few stairs down as she raced by him, his hand reaching out to brace himself against the wall. Damn, not having your hearing sucked.
Still, the sibling love was sweet. Offering the two a little smile, he inclined his head to Jing, furrowing his eyebrows in a question and pointing to himself, then up the stairs.

Oh. That was Ying. And Jing. And Nuk.
The trio wouldn't even get a chance to react before the wind would quite solidly be knocked out of them. Crushed together, they were bodily lifted off the ground, wrapped in a pair of muscular arms that had no intention of letting them go any time soon.
They might even feel a kiss pressed to each of their heads.
To say Gargantuan was happy was a bit of an understatement.

To enter, sacrifice all that you hear. The words gave Taima pause. She relied so much on her senses that to have one taken away would undo her--but she was already undone. If this was to be payment to the piper for the truth, it was a small price. Besides, nothing she had ever heard or seen or done had been real anyway, right? She sighed as she began the long climb up the steps, and it was the last thing she heard.

If was comfortable, the feeling jing had having his sister close. He forgot how much he missed that feeling. He would have been glad not to hear Ying's cries, it would only remind him that this moment would merely be fleeting. He was going to relish these moments before it was all over. The skin walker was moving ever as casually up to them, his fingers moving quickly and asking to go on ahead. Even when they couldn't talk, the snide joke was plain as day. the raven haired dealer let out a scoff of the silent variety and slugged at Nuk's shoulder and brought him into the hug. even if there was no way the skinwalker could hear, his lips still mouthed the important words. "No homo." .... "ok, homo." And soon enough the mammoth G wanted in on the fun. In retrospect in his mind, being hoisted nearly a half foot off the ground in a tower that was spiraling upwards would be pretty fearful.

The stairs continued it seemed into eternity, a sense of time and space forgotten, lost to the silence. And yet he walked on, he tail swaying behind him as he climbed onward. Whether he neared the top or not he did not know, though perhaps the presence of the voice felt stronger now than it had before.
Was it still speaking to him? He did not know or care, it had nothing to say that he wished to hear, not now. The puppet had cut its strings, never more would he follow that which had once controlled him.

Up ahead were several familiar faces--kind of, anyway. It was hard to really see them, crushed to G as they were. Even if it had been all for nothing, the camaraderie they had managed to develop had been...nice. The truth had stripped them all of their pretenses, leaving only a bunch of people hugging on a set of stairs that would lead them to their inevitable end, and that was perfectly okay.

[ steps: 40 ]
Ying felt Jing pull someone into the hug, but couldn't turn to see who as her face squished up against his chest, as she was now sandwiched between two people. It better not have been Nuk, that one he was making out with earlier. She would never approve of her brother dating Nuk!
Then G came and it got painful. Ying gasped out a screech, feeling way too close to her brother now, but of course there was no sound. She tried to keep her arms anchored around Jing's waste as she rose through the air. Even though she was in pain, it was a nice sort of pain.
When the hug ended, Ying kept one of her arms wrapped around Jing. A silent signal that he was not allowed to leave her sight.
Then, unlike Nuk, she pointed down, towards the bottom of the tower.
She wanted to leave.

Had he at last reached the top? A silent sigh, it seemed it had at last reached the last step. At last, the answers, the end, lay beyond.
He may have growled, an angry lash of his tail, a snarl as he again heard the words of the voice in his mind. How dare it speak to him now, how dare it deny all the pain and horror it had created! How dare it deny the destruction and those who had perished at its command!
Given no harm? Liar! You have brought only harm, death, and sorrow. You are not worthy of whatever prize you seek, and if I could have a wish, it would be for your fall, that you may never harm another again.

The shape-shifter quirked an eyebrow at Jing at his silent scoff, wrinkling his nose and making a face as he rubbed his shoulder playfully, sticking out his tongue at the other man. He did, however, move to reciprocate the hug, engulfing his arms around the siblings (yeah Ying, you can't escape it,) and rolled his eyes at the 'no homo' comment. Sure, ok, whatever dude. Grinning a little, he elbowed the male fox-pawn gently as he amended his statement, laughing silently.
G's addition to the group hug left them all with their feet dangling off the floor, air leaving their bodies in a silent 'whoosh.' Boy, that guy had one hell of a grip. Wiggling one of his arms free, he wrapped it around the gargantuan man's neck, giving him a tight little squeeze.
Good to see you too, buddy.Quote: Name: Nukpana HP: 50/50 Rank and alliance: Wild pawn of Silver, with a heart of Blue Appearance: See here.Progression: 44/100

Considering she had lived much of her dream-life as a Viera, who had superb hearing, the idea of giving up her hearing at all made the girl a little antsy. Unfortunately, she had no choice but to do so, stepping through the door and allowing herself to be plunged into silence. It was odd and uncomfortable, but she would just have to deal with it.
Alright, time to get started on all of these stairs.

Taima flailed and silently yelped as she was dragged into the group hug, but didn't bother to struggle. G hugs were a force of nature in their own right, and resistance was futile.
