((Entering from Group 1 Room 2))
The door swung open, and Hel’s head poke out cautiously, only for a relieved expression to cross her two toned face as it was that main entry room once more.
The valkyrie stepped back into the room, moving off to the side to allow her team mates to come in, and surveyed the room once more. She was…kind of relieved to not see Lizzy here at the moment…Oh…there was Roch and his group and then there was her sister and her group. "Roch, Danny." Hel greeted the two with a nod of her head before turning her attention back to Freya.
The exchange they had prior to leaving their rooms flared back up in the younger valkyrie once more and she narrowed her eyes at her sister from across the room. There was something…off, though, Hel could immediately tell with her sister. Hmm. Luckily, Hel wasn’t one to kick her sister while she was down to so speak…much less with an injured looking Herryk in her arms.
Hel glanced back at the door her team should start shuffling through at any moment, and then back at Freya, and then marched her way over to her. The reaper stood above Freya and Herryk, resting her hands on her hips as she stared down at them. “Sister.” She greeted, though admittedly her tone was a bit flat.

((Entering))
Mot entered the room looking like he'd gotten in a fight with a meat grinder. Cuts and scrapes covered his skin, his nose was was bloody, and his forehead had a bloody bandage. Not that it could be seen under his hat. But it was there. Being a bandage.
The reaper prayed to Jack their next room didn't involve salt or lemon baths.
With a tired sigh, he dropped his bag and scanned the room. He knew lots of people here, but one boil got a grin out of the reaper. "Howdy, Roch!" The blood stained reaper gave a wave to the punk.

Roch pulled away from Christof and stood, heading over to the Bandit with a concerned look. "JackDAMN Bandit, wha'd you do to make Hel do that to you?" he asked, looking the bloody boil over with a frown. He was SO asking to get hit for that one.
"I'd offer first aid, but I didn't bring any." He reached up, patting the other guy on the shoulder. "This is why you shouldn't date Valkyries," he whispered seriously.

Mot laughed at Roch's first comment, waving his hand dismissively. "Nothing, nothing~ I just had a run in with a few dozen broken mirrors." Mirrors that he broke.
Mot had his own first aid kit, and so did his team mates, so he really wasn't worried. However, Roch's careless assumption froze Mot's expression. Dating? Date...ing.. Hel?
What?!
"N-no! Nonononononooooo! No! I'm n-not dating her! I'm not dating anyone!" Mot panicked, waving his hands in a manner fitting of his panic. His face was red as a tomato, complimenting his numerous injuries ever so nicely.

Roch looked away, his shoulders shaking. "Gimme... a second..." he muttered, his voice sounding a little strained. Then he gave in, bursting into laughter. "Man, your FACE!" he said, laughing so hard that tears threatened. "Sorry, sorry, it was a joke I learned back--never mind," he said, wiping the tears away.
"Hey," he said, going serious abruptly. "Have you seen Amrita and Xiu's group yet? Christof and Freya haven't. I mean, sure, they could go to a different room between tests, right? But still..." He frowned, clearly worried.

((Entering from Group 4, Room 1))
They'd only just begun, and G was already tired. He was dragging his heavy feet even as he slouched into the room. A quick look around the room revealed some students he didn't know, some he did, and more importantly--his group members! Well, Danny and Rosh, at least. The swamp beast hurried over to them, uncharacteristically... well, quiet. He was thinking that maybe this house wasn't going to be as fun as he'd first thought.
The monster paused and glanced at everyone in the room, eventually waving one large hand in greeting. Maybe they were having more fun than G was? Maybe they had gotten rooms with boats, and not fire...

Was... was Roch... He was LAUGHING at him! Mot puffed his cheeks, playfully punching the punk reaper in the arm. "Whatever, partner." Mot couldn't help but laugh at himself after that.
Roch's serious turn made Mot tune down his laughter, watching him with concern. "They're..." Mot hummed, tapping his chin. All the students were capable, or so he wanted to think, but it didn't stop him fro worrying about his friends.
Shoot, he hadn't even thought about Lizzy during his time here! Only when he saw her did he remember she was here too. Yet, Roch was worried about his friends. Did that make Mot a bad friend? No.. maybe he just had such confidence in her... but... He was worried about Hel when she got separated, and she seemed like a much more capable fighter.
WHAT ARE MY FEELINGS DOING TO MEEEE?!
"S-sorry.." Mot stammered, rubbing his neck. "I haven't seen them. But, I'm sure they're fine! I mean, sure the trials have been a little maddening but it's just training. What could go wrong?" Other than his own team mate nearly drowning...

Hel was intent upon staring down her sister, until she heard Roch say her name, and her head whipped around two stare at the two reaper boils with a quirked brow. She scoffed. “Roch, if I did anything to him, he wouldn’t be walking afterwards.” Her brows furrowed more as Roch leaned in to whisper something to Mot, and her head tilted as Mot seemed to outright panic and blush. Oookay then…such odd boils those two were.
Now kind of eavesdropping, the valkyrie perked up when Amrita and Xiu were mentioned. “Ah, the last time I saw them was right before we entered the Haunted House! I spoke to Xiu for a good few moments…she seemed in good spirits….why…is something wrong…?”

Herryk winced when he saw Hel enter the room. He was in no position to keep the sisters from going for blood this time around, and he couldn't help but feel relieved when Hel greeted them -- despite her tone. Herryk figured that anything he could do to help keep the situation from over-boiling (a low simmer would be all that he could likely hope for), and so the Draugr greeted Hel with a bright smile, one that was partially forced.
After all, he was still aching.
Despite that, and despite Freya's desire for him to stay prone, Herryk slowly shuffled into a seated position. Maybe he would rise to his feet in a while. Maybe.
"Hel," he greeted the youngest Valkyrie sister, "Herryk is glad to see you." The relief he felt was genuine -- he didn't even want to think about how Freya would react if Hel's group returned without the ghoul.

"Nothin," Roch said to Hel. "Bandit's right," he added. "They're probably fine. I just--" He shrugged, looking up at G and grinning slightly. "Here's the hero of our first trial, guys! G here beat down the flames with his tail so we could get to the door!" he bragged proudly, reaching up to pat the big guy on the arm.
He was trying to change the subject so he didn't have to say "I don't KNOW the jackers that are supposed to be watching their backs, so of course I'm worried!" Which was also why he HADN'T been that worried over Mot. Other than the fight between Hel and the cat chick, that was. And he wasn't worried about his group at all.

Danny had been uncharacteristically quiet. She had greeted everyone with pearly whites when they walked through the door, but she hadn't really spoken up. She was busy thinking about the next challenge.
What if it did have water, like Calder said? She could go into a coma and miss the entire trip. Danny's lip twitched into a frown. She was honestly more worried about missing the field trip than her own health at the moment. How was she supposed to find the hidden treasure if she was unconscious.
All haunted houses had hidden treasure. Or maybe that was pirate ships. Whatever, there would be treasure.
G's big stomps (though oddly quiet for the oaf) interrupted her thoughts. With a smile, she patted the ground next to her and said, "G! Come here! Kelpie Calder said the next room will be a swamp!" Of course it would be horrible for her, but G would like it right? He was a swamp ... thingy right?

Hel stared at Roch for a long moment, before laughing. “You boils and your avoidance to saying you’re concerned!” Hel scoffed again. “You and Mot are like two peas in a pod.” She smirked. When Roch introduced G, Hel grinned lightly. Ah, sounds like another capable warrior! The valkyrie liked hearing that. “Good work, friend.” She called out to G, giving a wave of her hand as well before looking back down at Herryk.
“Herryk.” Hel greeted in return, the light grin fading from her face for now. She couldn’t help but give the Draugr a light smile though, because his concern was indeed touching. “…I am pleased to see you…all…as well….what happened in your room?”

Hel's addition to the teasing earned her a puffy cheeked Mot as well, harrumphing in response.
Mot looked toward Herryk, a little concern going out to the big lug. He seemed pretty beat down.
Mot looked to G, giving the unfamiliar boil a nod. "Seems reliable." Mot commented with a smile. "It seems like all the rooms have strengths and weaknesses. It's just a matter of figuring them out." So far Hel seemed the better off of them all. "Hel's wings have saved us a lot in our rooms." Not to mention her singing voice in the first room disabling the statues. She seemed to be their prime resource.

Gargantuan's ear fins flared out hopefully at Roch's words, an immense sense of pride and pleasure watching over him. The monster made a very happy sound indeed, huffing a breath through his nose. Had he really helped that much? That was a very exciting thought indeed--his tail drummed against the floor with excitement.
"Fire hurt." He announced, as though anyone else listening wouldn't have been able to figure that out beforehand. "But not so bad. Got door open, see?"
The mention of a swamp made his mouth fall open with delight, and he scrambled to sit next to Danny. "Swamp? Really-really? G likes swamps!"
Hel and Mot's praise made the beast shift with pleasure, rumbling affectionately at both of them. He was already starting to feel better. Maybe this would be fun!

As her group shuffled in Mitsu wasn't sure where to start. Mot had gotten some first aid though he would obviously need more later. He had quite a number of cuts. Instead Mitsu's gaze went to Hel. The Valkyrie had been in quite the fight so Mitsu wanted to make sure she was okay.
Slowly making her way over her first aid kit still in hand Mitsu came to stand next to the winged reaper. Not to be rude though she looked to Herryk shortly giving the large Nordic student a nod. "H-Hello." She was beginning shy now as she shuffled closer to Hel.
"D..do you need any first aid?" Mitsu asked. She looked to Hel but the offer was out to Herryk as well. He did look a little worn down.
