Welcome to Gaia! ::

DOUBLE TEAMED!?!?!

"What the Hell are you two crazy chicks up to?!" Otto grouched, looking from one girl to the other. And now he was being led away? He had half a mind to flip them head over heels onto that dead golem and run away!!

That was the problem though, he barely had half a mind. 8|



((Exiting))

So it was because of these 'partners' they had woken from their long slumber. Can't say she was upset about that. It was nice to be up and moving again. Stretching out her limbs, she glanced to the Ceres girl when she looked to her and Ryan. She nodded to her and Ryan. Kat would head to the cove, but on her own time.

Standing to her feet, a cheshire grin spread across the woman's face. With the b***h fit between Otto and Eva, she couldn't help but think the two were already off in a relationship. How cute. She used to baby sit kids like Otto. 'Problem children' as she used to call them. Maybe this 'Deus ex Machina' facility would train that aggression out of him..or increase it.

Shrugging at her thoughts, she moved for the door, mock saluting the white haired man, Bix. "Thanks for the tour." With that, she left to wander a bit before heading to the cove. First mission--was finding coffee.

Wilson smiled at Minerva, although she was preoccupied with something else—not that he could blame her. It was nice to know that he wasn’t the only one who preferred chatting face-to-face.

Dr. H’s explanation confused him. His partner had chosen him? How? Had his partner been watching him during the test? Wilson sighed and rested his forehead against the table, choosing to give up on the questions and to just accept things as they were. Hopefully, they would explain themselves with time.

Wilson looked up at Ryan and nodded his head. “Yeah, I think I’ll go too.” He got out of his seat, turning around to wave at Minerva before he moved toward the exit. “I’ll see you around…Minerva, was it? Yeah.” Some of the other candidates were leaving or had already left, and he strode past them and out the door.

Blinking a few times, Ceres found herself staring at Kat momentarily, wondering why in the world the girl would choose to stay in here?

"Huh?" She called over Eva, seeing the grin out of the corner of her eye while she was distracted. "Oh! Yes." She found herself looking around... as if to pick up something she forgot? Huh, weird. She did not have anything so she scooted around the chair, and followed the group of people as they headed for the cove.

In the end, that Dr. H fellow was right. You just had to deal with it. Sherry eyed the body-doll thing that was oozing mud and gunk onto the floor. Just deal with it. Magic, crazy technology...Accepted.

She looked up as Dr. H began talking about partners. A partner? Her partner was the reason she was awake? She would have to thank her partner, when she met them. She wondered what they might be like. Someone to show her the ropes and give her a hand? Someone to act as a guide in this strange new life? Sherry wanted this. She wanted to be good at this. Perhaps a partner was just what she needed.

Dr. H left almost as suddenly as he had entered. The Cove. That was where she would need to go to meet her partner. Bix spoke up. Sherry wondered at his words. Clingy? He made it sound like the type of buddy system where you do everthing together. This likely meant her partner would be her roomate. Sherry hadn't had a roomate in ages. Hope we get along.

She stood even as others were leaving the room. No sense in keeping her partner waiting. She'd been sleeping for months already-hopefully they hadn't been waiting that whole time. Giving a nod of thanks to Bix, Sherry went to go see who was waiting for her at the cove.

((Exit))

"See ya..." Minerva murmured to those who were already on their way out, still seated herself as the rush of information slowly began to sink in. To Vanessa, she smiled and gave a single thumbs-up. "I look forward to it." Perhaps she should have left with group, or at the very least with Vanessa as the women had gone only minutes before Minnie decided to stand...Yeah, she probably should have gone with her.

But she hadn't. And now she stood by her lonesome--stalling.

First she would need directions, and from Bix she would get them. Then she would go to the cove, which she figured wouldn't be too far from their current location--then again she didn't know how large the island was. But THEN, once at the cove, Minerva would find this destined partner. Okay.

Nodding in silent confirmation, the woman abaondoned the white room and ventured toward the Cove.
((Exit!))

Before Wash could respond to the concerned looking girl sitting near him, a gunshot went off in the rather small room.

Wash was one of the last to leave his seat, eyes fixed on the dummy the doctor so easily dismissed. He didn't hear Clarice confirming her fine health over the phone - he couldn't tear his senses away from the sadly crumpled and oozing figure on the floor.

As everyone began to file out, he approached it tentatively, kneeling next to it to check -

Mud?! He wrinkled his nose. This was...Well, he didn't really have a word for it. It reminded him of the sort of silliness they might've made as kids. Little mud voodoo dolls, with tiny bits of grass sticking out... But this was somehow significantly less funny.

At least it wasn't blood and guts, whatever it was. Maybe it was just a traininig dummy. Yeah. He hadn't really seen it move, right? Must've been on wheels.

He got up and left stiffly, following the last trickle of other students.

((Exiting to Cove finally |D ))
