Caladium turns to look at the others. Their gaze wavers, and they drop their knife, putting a hand to their head. With their pained expression, it looks like they have a migraine. “Ugh… fuck.”

Aibhe walked over. "Are you alright? you should probably sit down.."

Caladium snarls at Aibhe. “I’m fine.”

"Alright! No need to snap. Just trying to help." Aibhe glanced at the readers again.

The thing looks at Aibhe and tilts its head.

"Why look at them? They're nobody of importance." he asks.

"They're interesting. They respond. They know our thoughts…" Aibhe muttered.

Joe smiles. "I understand if y'all want to make "Joe Mama" jokes, I promise I'm used to it. Can you tell me about yourselves?"

Joe smiles. "I understand if y'all want to make "Joe Mama" jokes, I promise I'm used to it. Can you tell me about yourselves?"

"Well, I fell from the stars a bit ago down to earth, lived in a library about a month, then Orion tried to kill me for a while, then I fell down somehow to here."

Joe smiles. "I understand if y'all want to make "Joe Mama" jokes, I promise I'm used to it. Can you tell me about yourselves?"

"I exist, im currently in college.. I think… And my name is Aibhe (sounds like abby). A-I-B-H-E."

The thing shrugs.

"I'm what I am. There's no arguing with that, at least." it grins.

Joe smiles. "I understand if y'all want to make "Joe Mama" jokes, I promise I'm used to it. Can you tell me about yourselves?"

"Well, I fell from the stars a bit ago down to earth, lived in a library about a month, then Orion tried to kill me for a while, then I fell down somehow to here."

Joe's bright eyes widen. "Holy gauchos. How was that?"

Joe smiles. "I understand if y'all want to make "Joe Mama" jokes, I promise I'm used to it. Can you tell me about yourselves?"

"Well, I fell from the stars a bit ago down to earth, lived in a library about a month, then Orion tried to kill me for a while, then I fell down somehow to here."

Joe's bright eyes widen. "Holy gauchos. How was that?"

Andreas rubs his back. "Well, for one, its hurts. Also, it seems I always land on my back when that happens, which isn't fun. Tip: Aim away from brick houses, grassy ground is a far less painful spot to land on. I'd do it again though, far better place than where I came from."

"Hm. Noted!" Joe says with a nod.

"Alright! No need to snap. Just trying to help." Aibhe glanced at the readers again.

Caladium growled at Aibhe. “Who are you looking a—“ they glanced at the readers as well. “Oh.”

Joe smiles. "I understand if y'all want to make "Joe Mama" jokes, I promise I'm used to it. Can you tell me about yourselves?"

"I'm Maria, a Chilean forest elf hybrid. I just started my, hmmm third year at college?" she glances towards the readers, "Is that correct?"

Andreas sighs and looks up at the sky, wondering why everyone here was either insane, or probably just a little more insightful than himself. He stares harder, trying to see through the veil, or whatever these guys were seeing that he wasn't. He glanced over at Joe, thankful that they (at least so far) seemed to be relatively in the dark as much as he was.

Aibhe turned away from the audience, back to the group. "So does anyone (she glanced at the audience again) know why we're here?"

Maria smiled, "I would very much like to know that."

The thing looks at Andreas, Aibhe and Maria and grins.

"Generally, from what I know, these things usually go down the route of slaughtering masses of demons and bad guys."

"So…" Maria said, "we slaughter you?"

"Hey I'm not a bad guy. Besides, you can try, but I'm not sure you can succeed." the thing laughs.
