"Some..things?" She sighed slowly. Of course it wasn't just a cold. No, that would have been way too easy.
She shuffled along beside him and bit her lip softly. She debating offering, maybe it wasn't a good idea....what could she do for him anyway? But either way it wasn't fair for her to just ignore it.
"If there's... anything you need to talk about. I mean..you don't know me that well but... I mean I'm a good listener. If..." She hesitated. "If it's that Cheshire.... I mean I don't know... I hear talking sometimes helps.."

Julian thought about this for a moment - and a cold prickle crept through his heart at Cheshire's name. But he wasn't the problem right now.
"...I don't...want to scare you, though...." He gave her a strange, strained sort of look. "...And...what's been happening to me lately is...scary...."

"I've been in and out of therapy clinics for most of my life...." She said softly with a smile. "And I've been dealing with a lot of people freaking out on me at the island, two almost killed me..." She paused a moment at that thinking about it. Well they didn't really almost kill her, Sabin or another lab tech would have stopped it before that happened... but it was what she thought at the time.
"Really Julian... You won't scare me okay? If I can help... if it will help to talk about it, then you can talk about it with me. I don't want to pressure you though, if you don't want to seriously...then you don't have to. Just..offering to help."

"..Well...I...."
He bit his lip, wincing.
"...There used to just be Cheshire and I...but lately...there have been others. And one of them...he's..dangerous."
He held up his hand, showing her the tape.
"...That's why...Cheshire did...this."

Awen frowned. Dangerous? Cheshire wasn't the dangerous one? Alrighty... she needed to get caught up on things appearently. "So...Cheshire tapped up your claws, so you couldn't hurt anyone? Or..rather the dangerous one can't hurt anyone?"
She nodded slowly. "When about did these others, this dangerous one show up? Have you talked to the docs about it? Maybe a side effect from the transformations....do you think they can make it go away? Then you wouldn't have to hurt yourself like that...

"...So...Jabberwock can't hurt anyone."
He recoiled from the name, as if afraid saying it might make him appear.
"...The Doctors...they...they won't help me." A note of paranoia crept into his voice. A slight twitch racked his eye.
"...The Queen of Hearts would get me, then...."
Hooo, boy.

Awen's brow furrowed slightly at the name. It sounded kind of familiar. She wasn't exactly sure what it was but thatname reminded her of something silly from ages ago. This Jabberwock didn't seem so silly.
"Queen of Hearts...?" She really wasn't sure who he was talking about. She knew that was a character from Alice in Wonderland....never did like that movie though...
She shook her head. "That's not right though... Aubrey definately would help you. I'm sure they could deal with the Queen too..."

Julian's heart was pounding - he could hear a roar echo through his mind.
"No...no...the Queen is one of them! The Queen...she...."
He groaned, brandishing the notepad as if it were a shield. His head felt horrible - searing agony. "...I'm sorry...the...the Jabberwock...he's...he's coming...!"
With a strange scream, Julian turned on his heel and bolted for his duplex as fast as his feeble legs would carry him.
...Poor guy. Who knows what goes on behind that closed door...?

Awen blinked trying to keep up wit hthe flurry that was Julian for those few seconds. Seeing so energised, even if by his fear, threw the manta off gaurd until it was too late and he was already running away.
The Queen is one of them...? Who could he have been reffering to, Awen was very curious now. Awen could see why he would be afraid of staff..but he needed to be taken care of.
This Jabberwock seems to be doing him more damage than anything, and could harm other islanders. She frowned and watched him go; she hadn't meant to bring that out in him. She felt horrible...
Seeing him leaving Awen realised that he must not be eating right. It could be part of the cause of everything. Maybe she would bring him a plate of food sometime or other.
She shook her head and started towards the lake. A nice swim.... to clear her head. She wanted to go after Julian but she doubted there was anything she could do. It was best to stay away... the last thing Awen needed was for the Jabberwock to hurt her and then Julian feel guilty for it later.

He nodded, swallowing. "Maybe... I don't know... Maybe it is over? I mean... they never said exactly... how many changes...?" He let a bit of optimism slip into his voice. He didn't know how he looked.... But he could talk! He could hold her hand (and likely an epee), and he could walk upright. And of course, he still thought like himself. Those were the things that were most important.
Ambrose's ears pricked and he lifted his large muzzle sniffing the air as they walked into the cafeteria, his nails clicking on the linoleum. His long tongue licked his chops as he smelled cooking eggs and sausages... ham and pancakes and bacon. His stomach gave another hearty growl.

"Why don't you sit down?" she said witha smile, pushing towards a table. "I'll load you up!! You're really hungry, yes?! I'll get you a bit of everything!"
She rushed over to the food lines, picking up a tray and a few plates. She had seen Ambrose eat before, so she knew what she was getting into. She put a few peice of toast and some eggs on her plate, then began to pile the near stacks of eggs, bacon, and hamsteaks onto Ambrose's

"weemawepaweemawepa in the jungle the mighty jungle..the lion.." A song always seemed to be on her lips of late, she had no reason not to sing that was for sure. Though she still had alot on her mind after discovering wheer babies came from. She tried not to think about it too much and satisfied herself by changing the words in the song she was singing "The cheetah sleeps tonight" she giggled as she pushed the door open and stopped looking at the two figures. Pausing only for a moment though she gave a puurr, Ambrose was one of the men she truely trusted, he was a big brother c** father figure. Her nose told her it was him though he smelt much mroe strongly than he usually did.
She puzzled over this for a moment spotting Angilina she padded over in a some what graceful bouncy manner, no cheetah ever walked like that she had gained the chetahs long legged grace while keeping ehr fun loving bounce "Angelina!" she grinned, she was pleased to see them both but food first then talk. She glanced at Ambrose as she padded on past him, barely even noticing he was different, everyone was different. No wait, he was more furry. She stopped mid stride and tilted her ehad to the side blue eyes fixed upon the blond "very furry today" she smiled obviously not taken aback by his new apperance she boundd to get some brekkist.

Ambrose gave Angelina a wide, appreciative lupine grin and his tail thumped gratefully as he sat down heavily, sore, into one of the chairs.
"You, my dear, are a Godsend." He responded. He had been about to ask if she would get his food for him if it wasn't for the kick of chivalry that made him feel stupid for asking her to help him. But if she offered...
The scents were positively dreamy, almost enough to set his mind on a happy cloud despite the agonizing changes he had just been through and his daunting anxiety about what he might look like.
His ears swiveled back as the door opened before he even turned around, but as he did so he relaxed from his initial trepidation seeing the familiar figure of one of his 'little sisters', Colche.
"Colche" He said, his voice sounding gravely, but friendly, with a wide smile. She didn't even hesitate at his different look... was it not that bad...? Or... well. this WAS Colche. If he could have picked someone to run into, it would have been her. Maybe... maybe the worst was over for the day.
"How have you been?" His tail gave a small wag, but he didn't make the effort to get up. His sore muscles were more than content in the chair, thank you very much.

Angelina set down the heaping plate of food in front of Ambrose, popping a peice of bacon guiltily into her mouth as she did so. And snuggled up close to Ambrose and took a big bite of her toast. "I know," she remarked to his comment about her bing a Godsent, and to illustrate she planted a kiss on his furry cheek.
She gave a warm smile to Colche, happy that her reaction to Ambrose wasn't a negative one. "Hello Colche!" Angelina was already feeling much better. THe sort of relieved high you get after a good long cry.

Colche came striding back after piling ehr own plate with various things from the food bar, plus a slice of cake which she balanced precariously with a glass of milk.
Sitting opposite the two she gave a puurr. As she sat the bruises on her chest were obvious. They had started to fade by now and the sweeling and pain was long gone. "I'..good" she smiled brightly giving a giggle she leaned a furry claw over to touch Ambrose's cheek. "Ambrose a purty wolfy" she giggled pulling her claws away and taking a sausage in between her thumb and forefinger. She sate silently for a moment, she had oobviously learned she could chew rather than just swallow the way she used to. So much had changed for her.
The girl put the sausage down and looked thoughtful for a moment "Found out where babies comes from" she blinks a few times looking at Angilina "Angelina have baby I wanna see" she grins perfectly innocently, the idea of a baby being inside somones tummy was still rather perplexing to her, Angelina had a prince charming, Ambrose, they could have a baby so she could see exactly what would happen. Aubrey had said she couldn't right now but that was okay she could convince somone else she was pretty sure.
