"No need to be so formal," Ariane waved a hand in dismissal before looking in the direction of a small commotion; the Halloween student stood out like a sore thumb, and she recognized her right away... The student who was talking to Gale like an old friend.
"Wait - that girl helped Stormy here during the battle," She chipped in before giving the trainee a nudge, "Say something. You gotta be grateful, right?"

Nevada bustled around and left, grabbing bandages before handing them over to the Life hunter and looking at Kat.
"Under other circumstances, It would be all my pleasure but..." Nevada nodded as jackets were added for blankets. "It's been all good things though, if you're wondering. I even heard this really tall..Native american Moon saying that the suns lost one piece of fine a**." she smiled at Kat, attempting to humor the situation.
And not grimace as the girl might be going into hypothermia as well as losing blood from her wounds.
He glared angrily at her as she clamped her hand over his mouth, trying to explain. He didn't care WHOSE fault it was. That thing was a Halloween creature. This was a base for hunters. PUT TWO AND TWO TOGETHER.
When she finally removed her hand, he swatted it away. "Why are you defending that thing?" he hissed. ... wait. "YOU brought her here, didn't you?" ... Why was he even questioning it? It was written all over her face.
And then Sherry had to butt in. "The hell are you talking about," he muttered to Sherry. "She's one of THEM. This thing doesn't belong here."
When he felt a nudge, he glared at Ariane. Everyone was a freaking idiot here.

Dakota..! She would have to punch him later.
Holding out her arm, she allowed for Lex to tend to her wounds, watching quietly before looking to Ami as she joined in. "Er, my legs are okay, I think." At least they didn't hurt, but that could very well be from the fact they were also numb. At the mention of her arms needing to be completely bandaged, she let out a small groan. Was it really that bad..?
Smiling at Ami, she nodded. "Yes, thank you." Though when she spoke of her hair.. "Huh?" Her cheeks flushed, while her eyes widened. "I-is it really that bad?" Oh gawd..! She just.. wanted to hide. Forever!
At the mention of a nap, Kat shrugged. "I'm usually all for naps, but.." She just got back, and she wanted to stay with everyone.
"Anything else?"
"Yeah.." She sat up slightly. "Where is Ryan and Allan?"

Not . . . not hostile. She could believe that: Stormy was very good at stretching her imagination to accommodate the improbable and impossible. A Halloweener sympathetic to their cause? Someone who didn't mind lending a friendly heal even though they had never met, never spoken, shouldn't have even been remotely amiable to?
A big stretch, but not enough to tear a hole in her mind. "Always some friendly faces on the other side, even if friendly faces appear to be foes," she told Jake, blinking as Ariane gave her a nudge. "How else do we get our weapons? You saw the Death woman at the base: deals can be made." Simple logic to her. Just as saying thank you was.
Still, the trainee felt a little shy as she stepped forward towards the student, her hands clasped in front of her, thumbs twiddling. "You didn't have to heal me back there. Why did you?" Her curiosity was burning, as Stormy did not believe she would have done the same in turn even if she had been capable.

Amphi opened her eyes as she heard a different chatter of voices around them. What she saw though was heartbreaking. Hunters every where were being tended for injuries, others moving tents and cots to make room.
Trainee's, intermediates and full hunters flooded the field of the Island and had the mermaid timidly holding her hands together.
Somewhere though she had lost the hunter who had brought her here and regretted that. When she would find him again, she would thank him for the passage to the island.
Instead though, her attention was drawn to a group of hunters surrounding a student...one Amphi knew well.
"Mei!" Amphi hurried over to the ghoul and pushed past hunters to take the doll's hand in her own. "Mei-Xiu, what are you doing here on the Island?" The mermaid all but clutched at the hand as she looked at the hunters who weren't...attacking?
Though it looked like some of them wanted too. but this was as the hunter said, they were outnumbered. "Please stop." She looked at Mei, "I think we're here to help you?" Right Mei?
OOC
For those around Mei, Amphi is a Y3 Mermaid student who looks like this: [-]
Lex shot Ami the slightest of looks when she said something about Kat's hair, mouthing 'bedside manner' and furrowing his brow as he finished off her first arm and moved on to inspect her leg.
Yes, that was definitely bad. Good thing Ami had been there to tell them, though he would have caught it when he removed the coats to put a heat blanket on the poor soul. He began to bandage her right leg, smiling lightly as she said she enjoyed naps. She'd be getting a lot of them prescribed by the doctors and infirmary nurses.
Then, she asked the dreaded question. They'd all seen Ryan nearly touch the orb and fall to the ground, lifeless. They'd also all seen Allan sacrifice himself to buy them time to escape, and he'd even heard the man cry in pain as he crushed his own headset.
He thought about lying for a good half minute, before he sighed. Lying would make it worse.
"Ryan touched that odd orb, and convulsed and collapsed. Allan...bought us the time we needed to flee."
He bit his lip, clearing his throat. Back to bandaging.

"Oh, don't be so rude. What thing," Ariane rolled her eyes, and then patted the bracelet around her wrist - Kintama's desummoned form, "You'll hurt my partner's feelings~"
Her attention shifted over to Stormy, and she watched as the trainee interacted with the student; it wouldn't be the first time she was... Up close and personal to one of them, but it still made her wonder how someone whose life they had turned upside down could still side with them. Then again, as much as she was "defending" the student in this situation, she wasn't going to sympathize with them... It seemed to be her decision to come here, after all.
"You have a name, right?" She asked, eyeing the girl who was the center of this little commotion.

Mei felt the need to duck an hide from the blue haired hunter. She knew that people would be unhappy to see her here, but damn! Thankfully, Eva tried to keep things quiet, and even defend her, but it didn't stop the others from noticing.
Mei did notice Sherry among the crowd of hunters, but thought it better to keep her mouth shut. They hadn't exactly been allies then. Her attention shifted from Ariane, to Stormy as she spoke as she held back a small smile when realizing she had survived.
Wincing, her gaze locked on Jake once again. Thing..? Surely, that was a little harsh.. but he was a hunter after all. She expected it from some. Easing slightly as Stormy stood in, she tensed once again at the mention of 'weapons'. "I'm not becoming a weapon. I still think that is a cruel method."
To stormy's question, Mei bowed her head before looking to meet her gaze again. "Because I won't stand by and watch horsemen slaughter your race. We shouldn't have even been there, in the human world."
To the hunter's question on her name, she nodded. "Me-"
"Mei!"
"Amphi?" The dolls eye grew wide upon seeing the mermaid. "An accident, more or less. What are you doing here?"
Well, she wasn't here to cause trouble, that was for sure.

Ami shook her head and gave Kat a weary smile. "No, it's not bad at all. You'd be pretty either way." It was true. Even with her hair all uneven, Kat's natural looks shone through. Her hair just needed a little touch up.
As Lex moved bandages across Kat's arms, the bloody gashes brought back memories of her own wounds. She could feel the blood trickling down her back, the agony of the bugs boring into her skin. The thousands of horsemen eyes came back to her, the entirety of the battle field overwhelming. Breathe.
"Kat, they're going to take good care of you," she insisted, shooting Lex and Nevada a lookt that said you kill her, I kill you. "But ... But I have t-to go.." A hand went to her mouth, her stomach threatening to overturn itself. She stood up and abruptly left the bedside, rushing out of the training field as quickly as she'd entered it. Ami was wrong. She couldn't do this.
Breathe.

Really? REALLY? He couldn't believe they were defending this creature.
She also helped that mutt- <-Who was her FRIEND. Really. Must everything be black and white?>
Jake huffed, but eventually desummoned his weapons.
"Whatever. This is YOUR problem to deal with. I'm getting out of here."
He flinched when he heard a voice calling out, and stared as another one of those Halloween creatures joined the doll. The hell. Might as well put out a welcome mat for everyone while they're at it. Why not tell the horsemen too. Let's ALL be friends! Who cares if we're supposed to be at war with each other?
Giving a disgusted grunt, he waved a hand dismissively in the air before shoving it in his pocket and left.

The feeling of the ground on his paws wasn't so different from back home. Thackery wasn't sure what he'd expected, but this wasn't quite it; as wide purple eyes slowly took in the scenery, he tried to imagine what it must be like to live here.
But the more he looked on, the more he realized that he wasn't sure how to help. This was more than standing guard on the battlefield or checking up on someone's safety with a hundred or so texts. There were hunters who were injured. Others were talking amongst themselves. Some were calling out names he didn't recognize. Drooping, he hoped they'd find who they were looking for.
As much as he wanted to be of some sort of assistance to them, he could think of no way he wouldn't be in the way. Worried that he might have made the wrong decision, he pawed absently at the ground, trying his best to step aside to make way for the humans.

Looking displeased--particularly at the thing comment--Eva automatically tried to reach out and pinch both of Jake's cheeks, hard. "Kitten, sweetheart, stop being rude and listen to us for a second, okay?" Unfortunately, it seemed as if the boy was having none of it, and before long, he was marching away.
...What a grump. It was then that Eva actually turned to look at the group that had gathered, realizing just how big it had gotten. Sherry, Ariane, and Stormy all received a smile and a wave.
She then stood back and watched quietly as the others asked Mei a number of questions, but when another Halloween student suddenly showed up from out of nowhere, Eva's brows shot up. As if automatically, she held her hands up in front of herself in a defensive gesture.
Okay now, that she didn't do. How the other student had gotten here, she had no idea--someone else must have brought her along.
...But now what? Looking between the two Halloween girls, she cleared her throat. "...What do you guys intend on doing, exactly?"

Ear fins fanned a bit at the almost hositility of the Hunter with bright teal hair before dying down. Amphi in no means was a fighter or anything as the boy left and looked back at Mei.
"Not so much of an accident at all." She bit her lip nervously as she looked at the other hunters surrounding them. Most were females which helped the mermaid relax a little. They seemed a lot kinder then the Mermaid remembered..
Then again, She remember the hunters who talked to her was Ami...and other male ones. And Wash.
"I came here to make sure one of the hunters was okay." Amphi looked at the one with short black hair, a softer gentler look on the ghoul then the others before flushing. "Excuse...Excuse me...Miss hunter..." Augh, how did one talk to humans? Mei seemed to be talking normally so maybe the Mermaid should. "Are you guys friends of the hunter named Wash? I came to find him?"

hey btw, All my characters meet Jake what. Also She's watching you too Jake...because you're her fave colors. Blue and purple...blue and purple.
Stormy made no comment nor so much as bristled at Jake's use of "thing" - once again, open mind. Plus she still figured he was smarting from the assault they'd survived and, well, he didn't seem like a very happy person anyway. Injury and have a supposed enemy in their ranks so easily was a bit disconcerting, yeah, and though the trainee left with a huff she still gave a small wave goodbye in response to his dismissive handwaving because handwaves deserved handwaves, no?
Oh look, someone else though so too! Another wave was sent to the female Hunter because why not. She needed to socialize at some point.
But . . . huh. So no weaponizing, but still allowed on their side? Granted now that the horsemen had multiplied exponentially, they needed every bit of help they could scrap together. Stormy tilted her head at the doll curiously. "Are you staying long? I wouldn't mind picking your brain some . . . Oh! Um." Her hands returned to fiddling sheepishly. "Thanks, by the way. I was in a bind back there." How many others thought like Mei, though?
Apparently two more at least. She blinked and stepped back anxiously as the two girls talked, but - ohmygoshadog.
It was the wrong impulse. She knew it was. It was dangerous to approach Halloweeners but . . . Too freakin' cute.
The trainee slowly approached, wide-eyed and with a hand out and with her partner rolling his eyes at how little self-preservation his wielder seemed to have at the oddest of times.
