Welcome to Gaia! ::

Amrita watched the Heir walk in, wanting so badly to go up to her and ask beg for her to open the Library for them. That book. She really, really wanted that book...but at the same time, the Heir was scary, and despite all the personal growths she had suffered, going up to an Heir was still a little too crazy for her. Invictus had been hard enough, but this one seemed a little scarier. Even if she was an Undead.

"I think we should..." The ghoul trailed off, hearing a familiar voice in the distance. Mort. Mort was smart, Mort had some experiences...Mort might be able to help. "Um...Can I borrow that? I think I can get someone to add to it." Before she even had an answer, she snatched up the paper, took the pen, gave the boils a 'one moment' gesture and scurried across the room on a b-line to Mort, her poor Zomboil friend. The moment she was close enough, she tapped him on the arm; sure she felt bad for interrupting, but at the same time she felt this was pretty important, too.

"Hey Mort! Fancy meeting you here! See, um, I need your help." She poked his arm with the now folded up paper this time, the pen tucked nicely into the crease. That was when she noticed the group standing around him, and decided to not be totally rude. "And uh, Hi Mort's friends! I'm Amrita, nice to meet you." She waved her backwards fingers at the group as if she hadn't passed something sneakily off to the Zomboil.

"You too! You're looking well." Well, as well as a Zombie; but she knew that very well herself. "Yes, please. I thought...if there was anyone else who could add to it, it'd be you." She watched him kneel and start to scribble his own notes on the piece of paper. It was hard for her to read from so far away, but she was super happy that he had enough to add, or that he even took the time for it.

"Well...we're not sure. Answers, I guess? Or reasons...we're just looking for anything we can to make this make sense." She murmured, taking the paper from him when he gave it back, giving it a quick read-over. "...With a kiss, huh?" Amrita giggled, shaking her head. The many lessons from Lizzy came flooding back; that one shouldn't kiss someone they weren't dating, and everything similar...but they were pushed aside, because it was too confusing and frankly, she had more things to worry about. "Congrats, buddy!" She twisted the pen between her fingers, and then held it out as if she could write with it, making a vague gesture to his arm.

"I'd love to keep in touch, want my---" Wait. Wait. WAIT. Why write her number on his arm when she had a phone? When he likely had one with him, too?! Wow, Amrita. Wow. "...O-or, if you have your phone...?"

"Yesss," Mort replied about the kiss, still quite proud of an accomplishment over a week past. SO WORTH IT. Even if it had been on the forehead.

And then he almost had to go and 8| at her because did you just ask the tech lover if he had his phone on him. But because Mort had swag, he merely whipped said phone out off is pocket with a grin as his response. "Go 'head n' text. Will want updates and will give updates, 'cuz something fishy. No-one like Horsemen give delay without reason," he told her, giving Amrita his number before turning to his group and calling, "Oy! Amrita's group is smart, if have any info want to be giving, now is good time!"

Kettil stood still turning toward where he left Mort and the others furrowing his brow, "What kind of information?"

Being fairly new had its ups and downs. This was a down moment.

((Entering))

Once he'd gotten Edel's text, Moure had started his way over to the temple. It was vastly more populated than it normally would've been, he assumed. So many students. He wasn't searching for a crowd, though. He was looking for one person in particular, one halo of blue hair to serve as a beacon to finding her. He spotted it after a few moments, headed in the direction of what looked to be a doorway. His expression brightened, and he pulled out his phone to quickly text her.



As soon as he sent the text, he headed in her direction, spotting Roch's purple head nearby as well. His speed was a benefit to him in this situation, for he reached them not too long after spotting them. When he was within some speaking range he called out, enthusiastic but not very loud. (He was in a temple, after all.) "Edel! Roch!" The ground rung out under his feet, and he recalled the many tunnels underground before returning his attention back to those he was calling out to.

Go figure Moure had just unknowingly invited himself into an investigation about something that was probably very important.

(Moure is accidently investigating.)

Alex let himself be pulled around some more, stopping when Yin stopped and frowning, reaching up with his free hand and rubbing at his forehead. That stupid sound was getting to him, and was really just adding to the headache of the too-many-things going on in his head.

"I...I don't know, Yin. I have no idea what that noise is.." He grimaced, having a quick look around at all of the students roaming around the room. He recognized most of them, and many looked just as confused as he was feeling.

"Hey look, Taryn's here now too! Maybe we should go over and say hi? Maybe she brought some candied brains with her.." He smiled down at Yin, though it didn't quite reach his eyes. He really was quite hungry.

Kettil didn't move as the ghoul scooted closer to him and talked in a lower tone his expression falling neutral for a couple of seconds. Hunters it had been a while since he had heard that word - especially since his arrival here. Hunters had hurt Lark - at least as so much anyone could hurt her at this point. His expression went momentarily dark and he gave a bit of a nod.

"I doubt there is anything new I could tell ya since I only enrolled fresh some months ago but...I'll keep an eye out, alright?" He spoke in the same low tone simply because she had done it first but it made more sense when the ghoul had urged secrecy from him and others for the first time since the trip began Kettil was being somber and serious.

"That's okay." You'll learn things soon enough, she added mentally, all the while giving a little smile. She wrote something in the corner of the paper she held, ripping it off and handing it to Kettil; it was her skelephone number, since she had already tucked her phone away. "In case you learn something, kay?" Her attention drifted back towards the pair she had left in the dust, who were starting to look a little antsy. "I gotta go, I'll see you later! Be careful~" She nodded to the Reaper, a glance to the Rat boil, a smile to Mort and then she turned around and trotted back to Calder and Aymet, the paper and pen safe in her possession.

"Okay! Where to now?" She left it up to them, passing the paper to whoever wanted it first.
