Welcome to Gaia! ::

Felix rolled his eyes at Callum’s retort. “I could easily use the same argument. How do you know you’re dead when you’ve never been dead before?” He shifted his weight from one foot to the other. “You really shouldn’t assume that you’re dead. There are a myriad of other possibilities to consider first.” As Felix crossed his arms and examined his surroundings once more, he added as an afterthought, “One being that we may have somehow been transported to space…on a rainbow road.”

Natalia let out a sound of frustration and tugged at her long poofy brown hair. And stamped her foot. People were still determined to go towards that damned castle. Despite her warnings. They were just as bull-headed as she was.

Fine then

She'd tag along just to see them all get eaten. Then she'd point and laugh and say 'I told you so!'

It didn't occur to her that by tagging along she'd end up eaten too if there really was a dragon... But no doubt she'd stay at the very back of the group, arms crossed in front of her, looking ever skeptical.

Anna wasn't yet too far away when Ricky came to introduce himself. Still close enough to talk without it being awkward. "H'lo Ricky," she said. "I'm Anna." It was a brief greeting, as she was having a hard time standing still at this point. She was antsy. She wanted to move. Sitting in the same place, listening to the same theories and the same growing panic wasn't the best for one's mood.

Nor was Mal, it seemed. Anna found more and more that the woman rubbed her completely the wrong way. She was on edge, that much was clear, and it was catching. Anna bit down hard on the inside of her lip to keep from saying something nasty. And oh she certainly did have ideas running through her mind. She mumbled a few ugly words to herself before turning back to Grant.

"Well, thank you for your support," she said. "I d'no about anyone else, but I think just standing here is going to leave me in a s**t mood if I do it for much longer. And I mean, if we really are in space, who's gonna come looking for us? Maybe we just have to rescue ourselves."

"Pleased to meet you. I'm Ian." He smiled back, glad to have been of at least a little bit of help. "And I don't think anybody knows how we got here, or why for that matter. I know that I had just been listening to my music, and then it felt like I was falling, and then I was here. Wherever here is."

It was a rather cool place, even with the weird sounds, and while he could understand why somepeople thought they might be dead, he didn't think so. It seemed more like they were in outer space than anywhere else.

He heard Ms.Sierra-Preto say something about moving, and he sighed. Even off on an adventure he couldn't get away from orders from his teachers. "Sounds like we might be moving," he commented, with a chuckle. "though we can probably wait for you to get cleaned off first. It's not like we can get lost or anything. He wasn't really sure if it was a good idea or not, but they weren't going to figure out anything just standing here.

"How can you say that, given the situation we're in? I mean, yes, I get the general concept of science fiction," she huffed, making sure to put the same emphasis on the word that Jocelin had. "but this is clearly anything but fiction. This is real. Really real. Something is going on here. Something brought us here. Something took us to space and that means anything is possible." For a moment, a mere moment, Regina Faith Hopewell looked almost as though she was going to stand there and hold her breath with her arms crossed over her chest until Jocelin either agreed with her or she fell over from lack of air, whichever happened to come first... But that moment didn't last long. After all, if she passed out she might miss something. She might miss seeing them. The aliens, of course...

Reluctantly, she agreed with the girl who seemed so determined to thwart each and every one of the brilliant ideas she'd come up with. "... Joce is right. Wouldn't be all that great if this road started to disappate. Might want to head towards higher ground and that looks like the only real option we have." Then she was distracted by Amy's words. A cop? The aliens had kidnapped a cop? Clearly they had no sense of the justice system. They were going to be in deep s**t if they ever showed their faces... When, Reg, when..

"Bringing us here might have been our invitation, Amy. They might be trying to test our intelligence; see if we're smart enough to figure out how to get there and all..."

"Or there might not be aliens and we could all be having a mass hallucination. There's also the government. What if they're doing some experiment and we're not really in space but plugged into some computer system." She rolled her eyes at the idea but knew she'd probably just opened another can of worms with the way Regina seemed to be going on and on about aliens.

Standing on tip-toes for a moment she waved her arm. "Hey! Officer ... wait up a bit. We're coming too." She hoped that the cop (Gilbert) would wait for them. She wasn't always a people person but now she felt responsible for the two she'd stuck herself with.

Amy just seemed lost and Regina ... well she'd probably run right into something that could kill her because it would be neat or alien and she couldn't let the girl be that dumb.

Squirrels? Hm. These aliens must be pretty intense to be so many different animals at once. She was kind of hoping to meet one of them soon.

"Ye~eah!" Amy was a little excited to go see what these castle-things were, not even thinking about the possibility may lead to her death. For all she knew, the rainbow could disappear under everyone and they would fall forever.

Amy placed herself between Regina and Jocelin, locking arms with both girls. "Let's keep a lookout, just in case 'they' decide to say hello before we make it to their base." She said it pretty loud this time, certain that everyone would listen, and that everyone would move together as one big group (as if anyone would listen to her, though).

"I hope there's food in there...I'm getting a little hungry..."
