Welcome to Gaia! ::

The other Knight of Mars had certainly looked worse for wear, long scratches up and down his arms and legs wherever there was bare flesh, and a definite strain on his face.

He had offered to meet her where they'd first met as civilians, and was there by the time she arrived, fretting and scratching an patient looking ball of fur in his arms, near an open carrier. The large cat, which looked like a Persian, but one who's nose had apparently never formed the 'crushed can' look of a breed standard, blinked patiently at Themi, and squeak-meowed in a tone that seemed to vaguely imply a demand to do something about all this undignified behavior.

"Yeah... Iris, Bishophite and Alfheim." He noted. "Alfheim is pretty ******** upset, she was his sister..."

"Mew?" Josephine chirped, blinking slowly, proceeding to lick the nearest part of Kairatos she could reach with her rough tongue, ignoring his wince.

"Zia went into this... freaking coma not too long after you were over and I was just... watching the place and trying to keep things set while we figured things out, and then BANG she's suddenly freaking mirror walking into the living room muttering about trapping Casandra and she was acting like Zirconia, not Zia, so I followed her downstairs... Bischophite ******** broke in apparently, so he hitched a ride when we all got yoinked to ******** Tartaros. Zirconia said Zia's ******** -gone-, and then talked Cassandra into 'unlocking' her or something, ditched the cat ears and then things just... went... really ******** bad. I'm pretty sure she killed Cassandra to get her power but then she couldn't handle it and the whole ******** place started attacking us with... with our own nightmares I guess."

He was babbling, but it had all felt about as jumbled as it sounded.

"She sent the rest of us back, but I think it cost her, and Alfheim smashed the mirror after Iris just... She just said "You don't want to hear what I have to say" and <******** off." He quoted the Senshi of Rainbows in an angry, mocking tone and waved his free arm in an indicator of her departure.

"Tw... THREE people just bit it, Bischophite lost a shot at getting fixed because of ******** Zirconia ******** around before she nuked herself, and she goes "You don't wanna hear what I have to say. Not "Oh wow it's terrible you just lost your ******** SISTER, Alfheim." or "Wow sucks that you're probably ******** HOMELESS and just lost one of the only people you knew when you purified... Just "******** you all, I'm ********' outta here with my ******** a** WINGS and ******** attitude about knights. I mean wow, you stupid rainbow cow, I'm sorry you lost the one person you could harp to about how wierd knights are because of a friggin ******** way backstab!"

Now he was sure it made even less sense, and Jo tensed, sinking her claws into his arm and bushing out, which, given the quantity of her fur, made her look like a bug eyed, portable yeti.

"It's a ******** mess."

"What? Oh. I don't know. I guess not I mean... she's..."

He handed Jo over with an mutter from the cat, who nosed at Themi in investigation before settling down into her arms. "He didn't look like he was in a good spot to be talking, and no I haven't."

For all he knew Alfheim blamed him. It would have been easy enough since he'd followed her down the stairs. "I don't know, everything's a mess."

He thought he'd found some kind of stable ground and found out it had all been an illusion, one that had been yanked out from underneath him.

"Screw Iris anyway, she was cozying up to Cassandra when they first got the mirror working about how weird she thinks knights are."

Nope. Still hadn't let that go.
