Welcome to Gaia! ::

Once Jacques realized he was only one of the few civilians that had managed to hitch a ride in the fog, even though it was completely against his will, he knew that this situation was going to be much harder than it should have been, and even with powers it would have been hard as well. He was only barely a competent fighter as a Senshi and even then he mostly used his magic while fighting.

This though? He didn't have the strength, healing, or really anything that he could have used to survive whatever this was a bit more easily. At least he could have staved off starvation for a bit, he was pretty sure. But now he was mostly going to be a burden on the rest of the group and he was pretty sure that unless he found some Order to protect him, he doubted that any of his Negaverse brethren would want to save a silly civilian. They had not yet met and even if they had, they would have been given his identity away to hang out with them just to save himself, he was now stuck having to pretend he wasn't freaking out at all of this and he was just some silly civilian who was just all mixed up in all of this and it was all a bad dream!

He sighed, putting a hand on his hip and rubbing his face with the other. "What am I going to do..." He muttered to himself, trying to figure out the best course of action that he could take next.

Jaques was surprised when he was addressed and turned to see, well he wasn't really sure at this point, it was almost as if the fog was still in his head for the time being. Or perhaps it was because he was a human and it took longer to tell who was what without being powered? Or maybe he just couldn't see their powered form? It was interesting to say the least.

He gave her a smile. "Thank you for the offer. I'll explore with you, It's nice to meet you Hen, I'm Jacques but if you would like you can just call me Jack. Most people do." For some reason, most people found his name hard to pronounce so Jack just made it easier for everyone. "Hopefully those structures are sturdy enough for us to stay in them... you can lead the way though." Not that he was scared of leading the way, just that he thought it might be better if he were behind rather than in front when his head seemed so foggy.

He held himself back from saying "yes" as he followed the Senshi and watched as she tested the knob of a door. "Of course, what else would it be?" He could only play the ignorant human for now. Though he was sure if he was some ordinary civilian with literally no knowledge of how this all was and actually thought it was real, he would be curled up in a ball somewhere having a panic attack.

But instead he decided to take the "unbelieving human" role for now. He could test to see if he could transform later, but so far hadn't seen anyone that he would be comfortable with doing it in front of.

He really needed to get to know his fellow Negaverse Agents more.

He followed her inside and looked around, it definitely looked like it had been abandoned. "Well, looks like we get to squat here until I wake up from this." He was pretty sure he was starting to lose brain cells from how ignorant he was having to make himself out to be.

Well, it seemed that she had bought it. "I've heard of stuff happening on the news, but it seems to me that there were explanations for all of it." He didn't mention anything specific lest he get wrong what the "official" explanation for them had been. But there had been quite a few and others that had not even been noticed by the rest of the city.

"If you think we have to then we'll just have to do that. And lucid? Yes I have, most times that I've been in a deep sleep have felt this real." Often times he wondered how pinching was supposed to wake someone up or how someone could wake up to songs in the morning. Often times those were somehow just incorporated into his dreams. It was really awful when he felt the need to use the restroom and his body refused to wake up. "Have had to make a run for it to the restroom way too many times..." He muttered to himself as he followed her. "Well, if we treat it like it's real, do you have any ideas on what to do first?"

He gave her a look. He hadn't objected to doing anything but it sounded like she accused of him complaining about having to do something besides just sitting around.

Perhaps he was playing the ignorant civilian too well? If that was how she thought of him, he would just have to run with it. Irritating, but less irritating than being caught unaware by the fog and being stuck as a civilian while everyone else around you was powered up. He thought he had seen maybe one other civilian, but they seemed to know one of the other Senshi.

"Well, you lead and I'll follow then. I can help spot the house and if there are any cracks in it." He assumed it was something like when he checked his ceramic creations to make sure they had no holes. "I can at least do a little work with my hands, even if I appear to be a bit skinny."

He had to admit that he was surprised she invited him in so willingly. Not that he was of any real threat to her as a civilian, but he was surprised she would be so okay with sharing a temporary housing situation with him. Still, as long as he had some shelter, he couldn't complain. And it's not like he particularly hated Order Senshi anyway, but they were just natural enemies while powered.

"I'm coming!" He said, following her up the stairs. It was quite... dirty. And he wondered if they would have anything to clean it. But he wouldn't be surprised if they were able to anyway, looking around this place didn't seem to have much of anything, and most likely without having to look for survival supplies all of the time, they would probably have enough free time to make the place sparkling.

He nodded. It was good to have some water, though he wondered if they would have to boil it first to make it consumable. "I agree. We can head out now and spend some time searching for something and then make our way back here. Before the sun sets." He said while moving towards the door. "I'll go to the right direction and you can look in the left. I'm sure we'll be able to find something." He said before taking a step out and hesitating for a moment. Even though it was still light out, the whole town made him nervous, and he wasn't sure that would ever go away until they were able to make it out of here.

Alive hopefully.

He turned back and nodded to her once again. "I'll see you later. Good luck." He said before heading off in the right direction, hoping that he would be able to find something that filled them enough to last them through the night.
