(Laughing gas everywhere, Zachary got stabbed, his ghost army showed up and started trashing things, but Zachary got control of them and gave one to the god-like character (Neirym??) who then left. Mike started taking care of Zachary's wound in exchange for food and shelter, Zach is flirting with Angel, and two new hooded figures just arrived.)
(Ah, Thank you.)
Black spades just looked up, seeing the purple gas. “Oh, how beautiful. It’s still here.”
(I believe the gas was cleared, but don’t quote me on that)
(I literally had to check if it was cleared or not, but I didn’t find any post saying it was cleared.)
(Idk, just do what you want, then)
(I think the general idea was that the gas was venting away, but yeah, it's probably still mostly there)
(I at least know that it’s not around Zach anymore, cause he’s breathing)
Zach decided to stay still, but in a very showy position. He looked at Angel in confusion, ignoring the others.
'What do you mean, you're not perfect?' He then transferred to a low whisper, 'You're always gonna be better then any these shitheads. All they do is just wander around and hit people apparently while smiling all the time. Freaking SMILING, it's dumb. i only met one overlord and two lovely gem women, do none of the guys do anything?'
“….I’m just not..You heard what Actinolite said.” She gestured to the other Gem woman. “The eyes, the low intelligence…everything she mentioned…. I’m not made to be nice…I’m meant to kill the rebellion……” Angel tightened her wings around herself, it looked like she was trying to hide her arms, and probably the rest of her body as well. She looked completely ashamed…
“So it’s hard for a monster like me to be perfect….” She said sadly, even more hushed.
Zach looked at her in confusion. He didn't really care about what the other woman said earlier because sounded a bit off. But now he learnt that she's not meant to be good?
'But how are you made to fight off a rebellion? No offense, but I don't really see you'd fight… even though you have those big wings.' He didn't know what else o say, or how to comfort her genuinely. He faked it back home, pretended to care, but actually saying something to show you actually care? All he knew was how to do was debate.
'Your eyes are fine, they're beautiful and soulful, intelligence is useful but not necessary,' in a girl he thought to himself- 'and it doesn't matter if you're nice or not, everyone else here smiles and acts nice, but still kill people or other. You're fine, and if you're not perfection, then you're the closest thing to it, alright?'
“Well, it’s not like wings are made to fight… No, I’ve got a sword, a huge, flaming sword, that’s how I fight…I have abilities that I don’t understand, or things I haven’t discovered.” Angel could see it in his face; the question of good or bad. In her mind, she wasn’t a hero, even though Actinolite thought that.
“Zach, was it?” Angel sighed, taking a small step towards him, “That’s not what I mean…my eyes aren’t just on my face…” She knew he would not enjoy the unholy sight that was her eyes, so she didn’t intend on ever showing him, or anyone else here, for that matter.
“I’m meant to destroy the rebellion, even though I don’t know how. But I have no purpose beside that and being the first artificially created Gem.”
“Being nice and intelligent doesn’t matter?” Angel asked sharply, “So you want me to be mean? How doesn’t it matter?” She flared her wings exaggeratedly, suddenly showing how big they were. “And what is with me being perfect? Yes, I may be ‘pretty’ but do you like knowing that I could easily kill everyone here?!” Her feathers were puffed out, making her already large wings appear bigger.
The two hooded figures, who were standing by the wall, finally moved and both were headed towards this enraged angel-like being. The one with the lotus approached her first.
”Calm down… you’re letting your mind getting ahead of your body… at this rate you won’t be able to handle it” he warned calmly, his voice a clear and gentle one. The lotus mask covered his entire face but his silvery hair can be seen from between the hood and the mask.
He meant no danger it seemed. He soon opened his hand and a small pink lotus appeared.
”Here… a pretty flower—“ with his gloved hands, he placed the flower in between the girl’s hair strands ”—for a strong woman”
The lotus figure nodded softly as he turned to walk back to the other hooded figure. About halfway to the figure, he stopped and turned back around to face the angel-like lady.
”One more thing…” the figure mentioned.
”About the whole killing everyone part… I think that’s my job unfortunately” the figure stated with a slight laugh at the end as they took off their hood to reveal a tall body with a long-sleeved red formal shirt, a pair of black slim jeans, and a pair of black leather shoes.
His short silvery hair was revealed as well. The only thing left was his face which was covered fully by the lotus mask.
Mike watched the exchange darkly, doing the last stitches on Zachary's stab wound and bandaging it. Once finished, he put away his first-aid kit and stood up, slinging his backpack over his shoulder. "Take it easy for a while," he told Zachary quietly, "or your stitches will tear. I'm going to go find food."
The lotus masked figure threw their hood at the other hooded figure.
”By the way, what the hell are you all doing here anyways? This place just seems like a mess” the lotus masked figure looked around and asked with a slightly annoyed tone.
”Hm… seems illogical but okay…” the lotus masked figure took a look at their nails.
”Oh, right—“ the figure turned back to face Angel fully ”—you can call me Alvin” the figure mentioned subtly as he went back to checking on his nails.
A red lotus soon sprouted on his right hand. He sighed and threw the lotus to a random wall.
Black Spades looked at the lotus masked figure. “Your job is to kill everyone? Wow, I uh, have a friend. . no, I have couple of friends who are dedicated to. . . well killing.” “The Rat would’ve died if somebody didn’t heal him.” She muttered under her breath.
(Oof, did I kill it?)
(Kill what?)
(The chat?)
(I’m just gonna repost again)
(I don't think you killed it, don't worry. I will say that you don't have to continuously repost the same reply with minor changes until someone responds, it's kind of confusing and keeps clogging up people's inboxes. It's no big deal, but no one's going to post until they're back online, and pestering the chat won't change that. Sorry if that sounded rude, I don't intend it that way at all ^^; )
