Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Thank you," he said, nodding to Lin. "What I mean is, if you care to watch what I'm doing for a minute or so..."

His hands were glowing the pale gold still, and the dark poison was bubbling up from the cut Ophiuchus had made on the Headmaster's chest. Little droplets of the poison would rise up, attracted to Ophi's hands, and when there was a sizable amount, he would flick his hands over the bowl, and the poison would fall in there.

"I'm trying to filter out the poison before too much of it goes through his heart," Ophiuchus explained solemnly. "I'm not literally stuck, but if I can help it, I'd rather not have to leave him for any length of time. This poison is so strong, even a little bit left could leave the Headmaster ill for several days."

Ophiuchus thought for a moment, as he dropped some more poison into the bowl. There was not a lot poison, it seemed - an hour of work had filtered out hardly a teaspoon. But the less time it spent in the Headmaster's body, the better.

"Well, if it doesn't, it certainly can't hurt him," the healer responded. "I would be very glad if it did help. Go ahead and try it."

((Nah, it's totally cool! I like seeing Lin use her powers. There's a lot we don't know about her still, I think.))

Ophiuchus watched in captivation as Lin's pendent was taking away the poison. He wished he had a notepad and a pencil on him, or perhaps parchment and a quill. He wanted to take notes to supplement committing this act to memory.

His hands stopped glowing - he decided that with Lin attending to detoxifying Ialo, he could begin to heal the physical slashes on the young man's abdomen from Lazareth's claws.

Adolf watched the removal of the poison with great interest. That young elf was quite the girl. She was very adept at taking the knowledge she had and implementing it, from his brief observations. It almost reminded him of Athena... but this girl was so much calmer, and so much more self-disciplined than his hyperactive teenager.

Speaking of whom... He looked to the cot where she lay, looking uncharacteristically peaceful. It made her look very sweet--not that she wasn't normally, of course, but this was a different kind of sweet. He smiled slightly at her, though he knew that at the moment, she was likely in a coma. Well, perhaps not a full coma, but she wasn't going to be feeling perfect until at least tomorrow. She may not even wake up until tomorrow, depending on how well that potion worked for her.

He listened quietly to the happenings around him and to Athena's breathing. She was all right. That was all that mattered.

((Just bringing up the last post as Danni so it doesn't get lost.))

((...I don't like that Korean kid for some reason...hm...))

"Ialo's role? Well, his role is that of a leader, the poster boy for my cause. He was to lead the human race back to the destined path it strayed from so long ago. But, I'm beginning to believe he won't make it. The curse is beginning to cause very notable negative effects on both his body and mind; he's tearing himself up more and more and quickly deteriorating mentally with each use it seems. You however, you're a dark user to begin with, you're for more accustomed to it's effect that he ever was. It just may turn out that I made a crucial error in choosing him; in the worse case scenario, we'll consider him the prototype to your working design."

((Dude! I thought my character was nowhere near your character.....))
