Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aragon, Page of Pluto

(Thinking about things and talking to Bilskirnir.)

Aragon nodded patiently, having known Bilskirnir all his life so it was easy to decipher the gestures and vague comments. At least for the most part. It seemed as though his brother was pretty new to all of this as well. Or rather, he didn’t have the same experience as Valhalla and many others.

It wasn’t surprising that Bilskirnir wasn’t entirely sure about things, but his heart was in the right place and he was enjoyable to be around, so Aragon didn’t mind. If he learned things he was supposed to know, then that was great. If not, then he would figure it out.

He still wasn’t sure how he felt about being a Knight. It still felt like a trick. But there were so many others, and he knew his brother couldn’t pull off something as realistic as this for a prank.

Aragon glanced down at the watch on his wrist, and flexed his hand. It was strange, but it didn’t feel wrong. And there were obviously people from all walks of life there. He didn’t even mind the outfit he had. Some were quite… colorful. All unique. It was fun to see such diversity.

So this Code and the knights were supposed to have a symbiotic relationship. Okay, then that just meant he would have to listen to Bilskirnir and trust him when he says strange things like finding rings.

“I don’t suppose this… Wonder of mine is actually on Pluto,” he hummed, intrigued. If they were truly on the moon, then maybe there was some more magic involved for everywhere else.

Bifrost, Transcendant Knight of Chronos
[ Wiggling, giving energy to the Code, more wiggling ]

There was a lot going on. She followed the conversation quietly as the Code began to speak. So there was an explosion and then some sort of barrier and the Code was refreshing itself?

She excused herself from Connie and Belmont and Pieria briefly - "Going to give some of this built up energy to the Code, be right back!" - and moved through the crowd to where the Code was floating. The Code's sass brought a small smile to her face as she approached.

"Well you're already feeling better, the sass is coming out again," she said to the Code, before concentrating on transferring energy to it. She felt the itch under her skin begin to lessen and she breathed a sigh of relief. Oh the itching was gone! Thank the stars!

Bifrost made her way back to the small group, settling back into listening intently. Connie got kind of loud but all she did was smile at the squire.

"You are fine, Connie, don't apologize for your enthusiasm," she said, gesturing to the wiggling that she herself was doing. It sort of looked like she was trying to fluff her cape with her shoulders, while also wiggling her butt a little. Everyone showed their enthusiasm differently, Connie's just had some volume to it.

Have some of her built up energy Code! It stops the itch!

Erebus, Transcended Knight of Saturn]

At first he hadn't noticed the pull, the call. Terry had been sitting nearby his husband but had his attention on his laptop as he wrote down a few ideas to follow up later foe work. It was only when Seung had nudged him that it had sunk in what he was feeling. The brunette set aside his laptop on a nearby surface and followed after his husband, not even bothering with shoes as they didn't seem as important when he knew they would be powering up soon. It was a relief to have that thought after the struggle it had been for the past week. The struggle to connect to his Wonder was something he certainly wasn't used to, especially after he had transcended so long ago.

He followed Seung's action in powering up and got a letter in return, nodding in response to Venice's words. When the arrived he had reached out to help stabilize Venice, though he had wavered himself. "Well, you aren't wrong there, we haven't been all that active outside of close circles huh?" Erebus nodded as he glanced at the dull looking code himself only for his attention to go back to Venice when he mentioned Havasu. The Saturn Knight was a step behind Venice when he went to greet Havasu and Erebus gave a smile in greeting himself but stayed quite to take in the rest of the room as well. Of course he quite willingly moved where his Husband wanted him and wrapped an arm around him in return.

His eyes went back to Hav and he gave another smile. "It wasn't as bad as it could have been and I'm just glad you are alright." Erebus' eyes darted over to the Code however when it started to speak, giving a frown at how tired it sounded. It made sense that the Code was having trouble, during the past week he had tried to use his summon only for it to act like a puppy and ignore him completely to chase butterflies.

A Venice Page was soon joining their small group and Erebus gave her a small smile and a hello. "It's Tuesday now." he said to Hav with a sympathetic look to add on to the date that Venice had given. His attention was quickly caught by the Code again as it started to explain why things had been trouble for the past week. A look of determination passed his eyes as the Code mentioned they had to personally help at each of their Wonders, something he would of course be willing to do.

Erebus had already found the Code piece housed within his Wonder years ago. It was kept safe underground, hidden under the heart of his Wonder where the Erebus of the past had lived so he knew it wouldn't take long for him to start on what the Code had asked of him. He looked over at Venice and gave a small smile. "Guess we have some work to do soon. Not sure how long it will take but my parents will be fine keeping the kids another night at least."

Sumner, Knight of Neptune

He was glad that Pendour had asked about what to look for when it came to finding pieces of their codes. He knew that in the times he had visited his Wonder he had never found anything like it, but most definitely wanted to see where it was now.

And he was glad that Pendour held his hand. It was a gesture of friendship and it at least felt like he wasn't alone in all of this. Yes, there were quite a few Knights here, but he couldn't help but still feel as if they hadn't connected. Perhaps this event would be what triggered it.

"I'll make sure to message you once this is a bit behind us about meeting up." He said after the Code was done answering all of the questions.




Alphubel, Knight of Polaris

In the time that it had taken for the Code to tell them a bit of what was happening, Alphubel noticed another familiar Knight, this one the same type that he was, Polaris. He would go and talk to them later. Right now he needed to figure out where his code piece could possibly be located. He thought that he had already explored all that the observatory had to offer, but knowing that finding his ring had also been a bit of a puzzle, he wouldn't be surprised if there were more secrets it was hiding, including where to find the code piece.

He should be able to go to his Wonder this time which he was happy about. A thought went through is mind that perhaps he should take some food and other essentials and make sure to notify his brother that he may have been leaving for a few days. He had no idea how long it would take to find the piece.



Drombeg, Knight of Earth

Before he could even ask what they should be looking for code-wise on their Wonders, others had already asked the same question and luckily the Code didn't feel snarky enough to give them a sarcastic reply. Drombeg couldn't help but be a bit excited at learning that he would be forced to explore his Wonder even more thoroughly than he had already. It meant that there were possibly other things within that he hadn't yet found that may help him or at least let him grow closer to his Wonder. All they had to do now was actually get to their Wonders, but with all of the trouble they were having, would they be able to do so?

Poe, Page of Mercury

(Talking with Cynthus.)

Oh, how could he deny his daughter anything? She was perfect -- usually. When she wasn’t reminding him of her mother. But everything perfect about her easily outweighed the bad. She absolutely deserved praise for doing such a good deed for the world, and if the Code choose her, then, well, that was obviously because she was the right person for the role.

“I’m so proud if you. I can’t believe you’re growing up so fast,” Poe practically sniffled with emotion he was overcome with. “Good, as long as you’re not doing this for boys then that’s okay.”

He knew he was being a bit ridiculous about things like that, but he also knew how boys were, and he didn’t want his daughter to have her heart broken or feel like she couldn’t go to her dad for whatever she needed.

Poe made a face when Cynthus suggested that the man with the winged helmet was Chris. It made sense, he supposed. If Claire was involved in this magic, then that would make sense that her children were, too. She probably even told him that, but he was so overwhelmed that he didn’t know what to think.

“Are you going to stay and take care of your… Code thing?” he asked after a little while, nodding to let her know he understood. “I suppose I can try to figure out mine.” It sounded like a daunting task but he was up for the challenge.

Mamertine, Knight of Pluto

(Speaking with Irkalla)

“Ah. I don’t thinK I heard about that one,” Mamertine mused. He’d read something in the papers about a Sleep Treatment place, and while it had certainly sounded suspicious, he hadn’t immediately assumed it had anything to do with magic. Should have guessed, though.

The Code’s instruction did not intimidate or disturb him, but he didn’t like to visit his Wonder.

Mamertine itself was a dreary, desolate place. A ghost town. Only, sometimes it felt like the ghosts were still in town.

“Maybe it won’t be so bad. If all it takes is a trip to our Wonders…”

He let the thought trail off and shrugged. “I suppose if you like your Wonder, that isn’t such a terrible thing.”

Mamertine didn’t know how to feel about his. It wasn’t particularly beautiful or welcoming, and there was such a strange, overbearing aura that it felt more like something was trying to chase him out rather than welcome him in.

“What's your Wonder like” he asked casually. He didn’t think all Wonders were made the same, but he hadn’t heard much about Pluto Wonders to know if that was just normal to feel out of place there. He'd heard even less about Cosmos Wonders.

Selenga, Page of Ida

Selenga hummed a bit as he listened to Sonora's reply, staring at the Code without really seeing it, deep in thought as he was. This was all... so much. But he'd have to handle it somehow. At least he knew Kaifeng outside of... work? Knighthood? If he went around saying that, though, he'd sound insane.

"Maybe I ought to figure out how to glow," he mumbled, tapping his chin slightly. "As for my Code piece, I've only been to my Wonder twice so far. I need to look for it. But that feels like something private to do—both times I went, I went with someone. I hope I could handle going alone now, though. It just... doesn't feel right, asking for help in this particular instance."
