Welcome to Gaia! ::

Amphi nodded and understood that she wasn't alone in this whole thing, 5 other students were with her, and what would happen to them...she didn't know either.

"Hard to know what we are surviving against." She rubbed her eyes and sighed. This was a horrible HORRIBLE predicament to be in. "But yes all arguments aside, My main focus is getting out of here before something...suffering happens." She smiled at Zar, "Are you a first year? Second year?" She was at least attempting to better understand the group she was with.

"And Yin?" She looked over at the weremantis, "Aren't you Danny's friend?"

Yin looked at the ghoul's hand, obviously momentarily torn before he took it and brought to to his lips to brush the barest kiss across the back of it. Handshaking 101, Yin had not had it.

Zar on the other hand, despite his question, was getting a bit of a look. It was clear that he disagrees with Miss Israfel, and Yin more or less agreed with the ghoul a bit more, though he was not positive who was correct. "We should not turning on each other, for all we know we could be together for quite some time."

Amphi got a small bow as he turned to her. "Indeed, Miss Danny is a close friend of mine. My first friend. If you are a friend of hers..." well, Roch was also her friend..."it is good to meet you, though I would have preferred different circumstances."


((Sorry, phone posts while working at con))

Resting her head against her hand, Mei watched the group in silence. Arguing was getting them nowhere it all. Thankfully, things had started to calm down a little bit. Tensions were still high, but at least they were all starting to have a more civilized conversation now. She was at least happy to know the names of who all was taken captive with her. It was a pity it wasn't under better circumstances though..

Half smirking at Zar's remark about the dorms, and preferring his own, she had to agree. Her dorm could be a stye at times, but she would take it over this anytime. This place that smelled of a lab..she hated this smell. "Agreed."

"I do miss the waters of my dorm as well." The mermaid smiled again, settling herself down as she addressed both Zar and Yin, her gaze lingering on Amrita as well.

"A pleasure to meet you as well Yin." She flushed, "and yes Danny is one of my best friends. I miss her right now." She shrugged and then looked around, "It's a shame they couldn't even give us a window to pretend to think of an escape out of..." She sighed, "But knowing the hunters, we're probably knee deep in their lair." Escape would be futile if they happened to get out without even knowing the lay out of the place.

The ghoul might be a ditz, but she spent many years in the seas escaping things.

"Ah a second year..." Her smile beamed even more at Zar, "I am a second year as well! Although I am close to moving up to third year..." You know...if they made it out. "And I believe Amrita?-" hope she got the name perfect, "Is a third year." Except Amrita just announced it too..."Mei is a third year too...and Israfel?" So they were a combination of students who should have a lot exprience. Getting up the mermaid went to the incubus first and blinked.

"I know this might seem like a silly question but...are you hurt anywhere? I can heal somewhat, and would rather have everyone alright in case...we get attacked again..." The invintation was sent to anyone in the group, as she looked over them. Since you know, the mermaid could either sing for them or heal them.

Yeah she was good at that.

Zar was a little more heartened by the positivity of the others, usually so very deeply mired in pessimism that it was hard to imagine anything else. He noted everyone's respective names and years as best he could before raising a brow at Amphi. He wasn't sure if he'd been hurt, injury rarely counted as a concern for him unless it involved damage to his paperwork.

He finally unfolded his wings, first eyeing one then the other before patting his suit, there were no tell tale patches of ink coloured blood anywhere to indicate he'd been harmed and not noticed. It was a good thing. "I appear to be fully intact, if a little shaken." He gave her a genuine smile. "I am grateful for your concern."

He mentally scolded his own manners at neglecting his name."I am Zar by the way."

He nodded, normally finding small talk tedious and a time waster on his schedule, but there was no schedule here, no real handle on his future. "I attended prom because my boilfriend insisted."

Amphi blinked and smiled at the Incubus again. "That's good!" She sat back down and crossed her legs, at ease with small talk rather then mentioning their current situation. "No problem, I'm really only good at healing after all." She shrugged and turned over to Yin.

"Even if we attempted it now Yin, the only thing we would be met with us is more hunters and a land we do not know." She bit her lip nervously, "I hate to say we need to bid on time but....with how we are now, we are at their whim until we can gain information..."

"Oh Prom!" Amphi was immediately distracted by the talk of something normal and smiled. "Prom was fun. Except Lou. Lou was there." Okay she made a face at the mention of Lou. "And Dancing was fun..." She looked over at Zar again, "Did you not like it?"

There was a clipped laugh that bubbled up. "You're the worst." Picking at the dirt under his nails, Israfel earwings held back. "Born to suffer-" The tone dropped to something much lower and masculine. "I was supposedly born to die, yet I refused and I live. Suffering is without purpose and no one is without purpose. Do not speak to me of suffering." A deep breath the siren's nails raked along the bed, drawing up a high pitched scratching sound.

"The hunters have the habit of playing off of our weaknesses and if possible contain us in clusters." His voice had returned to the neutral tone it held more often than not. "Philosophical disagreements aside, every encounter they have held us using some kind of electrical current that will drain us of our power. Thus, the suggestion that since we are contained, trying to fight the window or door would yield little result. It's in theory a good notion, but we don't know where we are. If we're in halloween that's not so bad. In the Human world we'd be stuck and needing to find a way home. If on the island...."

The siren looked to the older students. "It's anyone's bet on that. But yes. Resting, waiting, is our safest option at this time. A better question might be does anyone feel ill or drained? It doesn't take a hunter's trap to make us go weak from lack of FEAR."
