She finally got to the edge of the water, dragging her soaked form out of the pool of tears and rubbing her head. It took her a few seconds to figure out that she had hands again, thanks be to goodness, but then she jumped to her feet. Long auburn hair curled down to her lower back, childishly-large gold eyes blinking slightly and holding a wisdom that spoke volumes about her true age, a scar running from the corner of her right eye to her chin. The tight dark purple shirt, metal-ribbed vest, and short lavender skirt allowed both protection and freedom of motion in case of a fight. But she had no weapon visibly on hand.
She reached out to grab Ryu and help him before she'd try and catch a teardrop. "Come on, let's see how many tries it'll take to catch one before I get myself wet somehow."

Ryu reached up....with what appeared to be three...four...two...now it was seven...then one....hands.
His whole body seemed like a broken television, with multi-colored "shadow" versions of himself branching out, each one with some diffrent state of elemental affinity. Most were female. The ones that wern't showed Ryu's normal form. He really needed that butterfly. And he needed it fast.

She reached down with her right hand and grabbed his, hauling him up and to his feet, ignoring the shadowed versions of him and hoping neither of the other two could see her wince. He still had a bit of darkness-taint on him, so she pulled her hand back and waved it as if it was burned as soon as he was on his own two feet.
Lucis then took the opportunity to reach out and try to catch a couple of the tears falling, missing both of them. Eventually she took to watching one fall from the top of the fall and jumping forward to land in a spin and a crouch, moving her hand as the tear re-directed itself, the whole motion almost one flowing dance move.

Ryu staggered as he was hauled to his two...four....twelve...feet, trying to step forward. Just as anyone looking at him could see the shadowed versions, to him, the world seemed to be in that same kalaidascope effect. In other words...he couldn't see for beans.
Instead, he stumbled twords the water, falling in headfirst, before swimming to the surface, his eyes shut. (They wern't doing him any good anyways.)
"L...Lucis?" He asked, his voice garbled, as if talking through bad radio signal.

Daminika watched them from a distance. "Best hurry the dark energy can be a bit over powering." she looked above and walked around to catch a tear drop.

Jerking her head and body sideways when Ryu fell into the water, she missed catching the tear. "Crap." She bit down on her bottom lip as he fell into the water, instinct telling her not to touch him while her heart told her to grab him and help him catch a tear, quickly.
She reached out and grabbed his hand, maneuvering it just under a falling tear. "Don't move" She kept her hold on his hand anyway, knowing that it probably wouldn't be easy to keep still enough for him to be able to catch the tear. She had to keep biting down on her bottom lip however, when the burning feeling started traveling up her arm, starting to shred her bottom lip to keep herself grounded in the timeflow and to not start screaming. A whimper however, did manage to escape her, and she really hoped he caught this tear.

((Errr, I dunno. If Ryu didn't resist Lucis moving his hand, then Ryu caught it. If he resisted Lucis moving his hand then probably no one.))

Coincidentally, that was Ryu's plan anyways. The boy didn't resist at all as the drop touched his skin.
((Sorry for the delay! *has a longer post in mind....but needs Crim to post first.))

As the tear drop fell upon Ryu's palm, it shimmered. It was breath taking how lovely it was. A glimmer of hope and protection. The liquid moved in Ryu's palm. Slowly something came out of it. As if it had hidden itself inside of a tear. A blue butterfly fluttered its wings up and down to take flight. Its wings so beautiful as it flew around Ryu. Daminika watched Ryu and smiled. "Drink the leftover liquid. It is pure and magical. It is the butterfly's life source as a gift to you. It is the offering from her to be your guardian." ...

As the liquid shimmered in Ryu's multi-colored palm, slowly the various shadows began to solidify, his skin turning soft as it traveled down his arm.
Ryu's figure seemed to float above the water, its eyes still shut as it solidified.
Weakly, it rose the liquid to its mouth, gently sipping it with trembling lips.
Ryu stood on the water's surface, staggering slightly. But an odd sense of peace overcame her. The violent malestorm of elements was gone. The darkness was still there, to be sure, but it was perfectly balanced against light, as well as fire, water, earth, and so on.

As soon as the butterfly formed, Lucis snatched her hand back, looking rather worried that her arm was disintegrated up to her shoulder and had been starting to disintegrate the rest of her shoulder and her ribcage. There was no blood or gore, thankfully, but there was an obnoxiously bright light blaring from the hole where an arm had been.
She whimpered again, holding out her left hand and hoping that a drop hit it. Luck seemed to be with her though, because a tear hit it pretty quickly.

The butterfly fluttered around the ones that walked. "Hello it is so nice to meet you." the butterfly spoke aloud in a magical voice. Something no one really believed existed. "My name is Hileyia" she giggled; a sound so pure that it was heart wrenching.

The tear swirled in her palm. A glimmer that showed hope and the elegance of a forest in the night. The smell surrounded her. A scent full of the beauty of mother nature. A butterfly crawled out of her palm. A creature so lovely it hurt to look at. It fluttered its wings and flew around her.
