When he spotted Kim on the field, Rhys was...curious, to say the very, very least. He'd been curious on that one mission, too, but it felt rude to ask about that while her boyfriend was around because he felt like it'd be a sore spot for the guy. He watched her be "dead" for how many days? And Seren had been pretty badly affected by it too, so it would have been more in bad taste, in his mind, if he'd asked while those two were around.
But if it was just Kim? He wondered if she even remembered the experience at all, of being "dead" and podded for however long that actually was. He wasn't the greatest guy to go and comfort a total stranger about an acquaintance he had; what words could he have said that would have been helpful at the time, anyway? So he hadn't gone to visit at all, and one day Kim was alive and well again. Which was a good thing, obviously, but it freaked him out.
Deus often freaked him out because of what they did as a whole, deal with the supernatural and things like that, but this was a whole other level. People dying and coming back to life just seemed...completely unnatural, despite knowing what Deus was all involved in.
So in the end he did approach, Zephira hefted over his shoulder. It was the sparring grounds so as he got closer he called out, "Yo, incoming," in case she was the jumpy sort that attacked if they felt someone trying to sneak up on them.

Kim wasn't that jumpy but she was thinking of what she was going to do for the day. She had been wandering around for a while looking for something fun to deal with but nothing had come up. Ahh but there was something now. She turned at the sound of someone speaking and arched a brow. "Ahh if it isn't Rhys.. hiya!"
She walked toward him slowly, still grinning. "What brings you to the fields of slaughter.. I mean training grounds?" She was still surprised it was rather empty at the moment, which meant that she could swing her whip about and only hit air.
The guy in front of her had been on a mission once, and she had seen him with Seren on.. their last mission.. yeah that was fun.. ugh. "Want to spar or something, I have time and I am soo bored, I need to stretch my muscles."

"Just lookin' to get in some training," came his reply, simple and honest and maybe also sounding a little bored. Training was always more fun with a partner, at least out here on the grounds, so when she offered he gave a quick nod. "And yeah, a spar sounds like it'd be a good workout right about now. Better than dealing with the dummies." He nodded toward the stock still figures in the distance. "Good for learning how to aim, but not much else when you've already got that part figured out."
With that he took a few steps back and started to stretch out a little and get his muscles a little warm. "Wanted to ask you a few questions too, though. Just s**t I'm a little curious about. Cool?"

Kim: Hp 30/30 Damage: Rhys Hp 30/30 Kim chuckled a bit and nodded. "Yeah the shadow run kind of taught me that I am good at the whole aiming deal. She touched her belt, Chinthliss' totem item, resulting in the large whip being coiled in her h hand, the large barb not dripping in poison as it usually would be. No need for the scorpion sting when she was only training. "Shucks no chickens to toss at you this time." She grinned and nodded her head. "Okay ask away, I will answer what I can. Can't promise anything will make sense." She was so distracted though that she didn't fully release the whip, resulting in the end just dropping to the ground.

Ah, the Shadow Run. It wasn't difficult but the sheer number of those baby shadows could be overwhelming, especially if one miss resulted in getting overrun by them Which happened to him a number of times over a number of different attempts until he finally finished. So he just made an "o" with his mouth and got into fighting stance.
"Damn those chickens," he said, grinning, "and cool. First question--" he paused, a bit confused that she didn't take the first strike like he thought she would. And since she was wide open, he dashed in and aimed to strike across her mid-section. "What the ******** happened to you on Creation island exactly?"

Kim made a yikes sound as she was attacked, her own lack of paying attention causing a flurry of profanity in her mind. "Crud.. ow.." She winced a little and danced about a moment, really not on top of her game in any stretch of the imagination. "Um, I am not fully sure. I remember touching the tree and asking if it would forgive me for wanting the artifact back, then things went all weird. I was like a puppet and could only listen as it talked through me. Didn't feel anything though, so that was a positive side." She actually used her whip this time lashing out, snapping the whip's barb toward Rhys, though she was sure the loss of her first chance to attack had really screwed things up for her. There was nothing to be done for it but hope she could recover.

He winced as the barb ripped through his shield, but it didn't stop in for dashing and slashing again.
"Wait you were still around?" he asked, clearly both surprised and confused. The situation had generally been bizarre, though most of it he just knew about because he'd witnessed them haul her body off before he went about puking on Creation island until he finally left. Nobody told him that part though. "The ********? So really good they didn't cremate you. So you were like a ghost or just in a different...realm...?" The terminology for her situation escaped him.
"Were you with us in Atlantis, then? Or did you go back to the infirmary when they took your body after we got off the island?"

HP:19/30 Damage 7 Kim nodded wincing again but leaping back before there was too much damage. "Yeah I was around. I saw everything, like from my own eyes, then.. Well then I was like hovering around my body, saw it fall and I was on my way to the infirmary then got pulled to Atlantis. I didn't see what people were doing there, but I did meet Burt. A shadow that was following me. I couldn't look right at it but I did see very sad Atlantians. I think they are all still there, trapped." This time she got a good strike in, the whip snaking out and catching at Rhys. "It is sad.. to think they are still down there. No one can see them. I could only cause.. I guess because I had no body."

He listened to her story and got mildly distracted, taking the brunt of the damage of her next attack as a result. He didn't seem to mind, as his head wasn't entirely in this spar now given what she was saying about her experience. He dashed and slashed, focus still on her words so there was a good chance she'd be able to dodge most, if not all, of his attack.
Despite Zephira's screaming at him to focus, he again ignored and paused in something of a defensive stance.
"That's probably one of the freakiest things I've heard since I got here," he said, lip curled into a frown. "What in the ******** mean, good you weren't dead and all, but Creation messin' with you like that. I mean...s**t."
Unfortunately he wasn't the most articulate of people, so that was the best way he could express his feelings on that. "So basically we walked through a sea--no pun intended--of dead-and-out-of-sight spirits while we were all down there? Did he say anything to you? Anything useful, maybe?"

Hp:17 Damage: O.O nope.. not a one If Rhys was distracted, Kim was worse. She actually stood in place after getting hit, thinking a moment, and once more failing to strike. She tipped her head to the side. "Actually, no, nothing was said to me the whole time. I just got a lot of looks." She shrugged one shoulder. "Yeah you were all walking down a corridor of ghosts, and they just watched. I just got the feeling of upset, then suddenly it was like I was yanked back to stare at my cold body again, and... yeah.. it sucked. I hated knowing that I had caused all of this for everyone. I swear I am going to be a better person." The things was, she was telling the truth. She had decided that enough was enough and no more taking weird things, at least not unless she was told it was cool, or it was something she was ordered to get or something. No just taking. _p a o cx It is okay things going on all over

When she saw her drop her fighting stance he simply followed, thinking nothing would come of a half-hearted spar. So he hefted Zephira over his shoulder and approached her, nodding a bit in approval of what she seemed to gather from the whole experience. "Lease you learned somethin'," he said, managing a lopsided smile. It was almost a frown, really, since he wasn't sure but definitely hoped that she could control whatever urge had overtaken her to take that artifact in the first place if she found herself in another similar situation.
"If things sucked, the best thing that can happen is learning from it and movin' on. If you're doin' that, good on you." With that he gave her a clap to her shoulder, not too hard but none too gentle given his stature, either.
"As for causing everything...you couldn't have known but yeah, kinda d**k move on your part. It's all fixed, though, and you learned your lesson. Just look forward now and keep working to make yourself that better person you're thinkin' about now."
He wasn't much by way of encouraging other people, but he did...try. Sometimes.Steal Thought stopping the fight was better since they're both distracted. xP;

Kim saw that Rhys had desummoned his weapon and she let her own weapon turn back into her cosmetic belt. She had learned that it was not a practical real belt when if she summoned her weapon her pants would drop. She gestured to leave the center of the room and sat down on a bench. "Yeah I did learn something, had I not... maybe I would not have been able to come back?" She could never be sure temptation wouldn't hit, she liked pretty things, but she knew not to take from her friends. She would never steal anything from her friends. She felt the smack to the shoulder, and knew it was intended to be chummy. She was actually rocked a bit. "d**k move.. that is a gentle way of saying it. Like I said I am doing the best I can to fix things and make it right." She took a deep breath, and made a thumbs up gesture. "I want to make sure not to hurt my friends again." _p a o cx sorry, bad stuff happening.

The trainee followed her to a bench and flopped down on the other end of it, pulling his jacket off to speed up his cool down a little bit. "Somethin' to think about," he offered, glancing over at her as he listened to her speak. When she gave him a thumbs up he gave an amused huff and thought on it a little bit more. Eventually he sighed and shrugged again.
"That's good. I heard Terry went through a little snippet of hell when you were podded, so making sure you don't hurt him or other people you care about is a step in the right direction." And the he gave her a thumbs up in return.
"If there's anything I can do," he offered, knowing Seren considered Kim one of her good friends. "Just lemme know, alright?"Steal Sorry to hear that. :< I hope things get better soon.

Kim shook her head hard. "No way, I would never put people I care out through that again. Terry is more than just special to me, Seren is my best friend.. I don't want them hurting." She cringed a bit. "No way. Though I am not sure how doing things right could put them through anything. I think it would make things easier on them really." She smiled. "At least I don't see how it could make anything worse." She chuckled weakly. "Thank you for being there for him though, I mean, if you noticed it you had to have been there in some way. For both of them. Friends are important. They are the ones that watch your back for you. I was stupid to have put them in any harm."
