Reeve slowly sits up, his head still ringing with the pain of the memory slam, but, to his disappointment and relief, none of the substance. Elbows on the toilet bowl, hair clenched in his hands, he stares down at his reflection in the dirty water.
"Kill her, kill each other, whatever. Pills. NOW."

Lina's face was calm but she dropped the box and pulled out a vial from it.
"I have them right here" she tossed the small vial into the bathroom.

Iri takes a breath and clenches her jaw. Glowing eyes squint shut. She's trying to think. But she's mad. Furious. Her judgement is clouded. Or is it clearer? Is the Fury right or wrong? Good judgement and kindness says one thing: "Maybe she's being manipulated like Reeve?" The Fury's judgement and anger say quite another: "She's a threat, a menace. She needs to be banished or destroyed." On top of all that, does Iri really want to make an enemy out of this particular entity? Sometimes she thinks Syn is scarier than Nekojiri.
Finally, Iri vaguely points in the direction of the dojo's exit. Her claw is quivering. One moment it's growing. The next it tries to shrink. "Out. Go home. Now, Syn."

Syn looks between the three once more before bowing her head, her chin touching her chest as she pouts. Right before she disappears, a small grin flashes on her face.
Matariel stands outside, far enough away to evade detection. the group holds in the forest behind her.

Without a second thought, Reeve slams two of the pills down his throat, waiting on the effect.

The Fury catches the grin. A grimace forms on her features. The instincts of Iri's more violent side win. The expression was tiny. It could have been nothing but the girl's creepy factor. But the Fury is more instinctual than the air spirit. It sense a real threat. And it's currently winning the battle over Iri's body and mind.
Iri looks at Lina and nods her head before looking at Reeve. Through the newly regrown fangs, her voice is a little different. "We're going to have to guard him. I don't trust the girl. What you say, buddy?"

She nodded.
"I suppose we do have to guard him"
She waited to see if her replacement meds did any good.
Her hand still had the occasional crackle of electricity.

Reeve blinks, waiting still, and to his surprise, the usual effects didn't come, but the sick-as-a-dog feeling began to recede.
"H-hey...these aren't mine."

Iri turns to fully look at Reeve. Glowing violet eyes blink. Then she looks at Lina and points at her with an inch long claw.
"You are a bad a** chick. We need to hang out more often, darlin'."
As Iri talks, her Fury looks are fading away. The fangs and claws shrink. And her eyes cease the pissed off glow. Needless to say, she's feeling a little better now.

"Well, yeah," Reeve says weakly. "She's a rai-nin. We're like that."

She chuckled a bit.
"It'd be fun"
Her arm shifted back to normal, the sparks slowly dissipated
She looked at Reeve and tilted her head to the side.
"Who said they were?"
She smiled at the compliment however.

"I did."
Reeve waves his hands in front of his face.
"No boot-up screen, no stats, no waypoints, no direct feed-" Somewhat returning to his normal self, Reeve scratches the back of his head, chuckling shyly. "I mean, umm..they're a different colour?"

Iri quirks a brow. "Were you purposely hiding the fact that you knew about all that?" Then something occurs to her. "Hey! What's Rai got over Kaze!?"

She looked at Reeve with some pity on her face.
"You should be able to recover with time, but at some point you should hit yourself with an EMP just to be safe."
The dragon-kin girl started to laugh.
"That one's all on you Reeve."

"It's not like I knew," Reeve said defensively. "At least, until a little while ago."
