Continuing the unfinished RPs because I feel these are important and should be fineshed. We are still going with this.

Charricthran and his fairweather ally had managed to dispatch what remained of the kid's former crew. In the hasty, floaty tones of the Nasir's native tongue, he made his farewells and wished the kid the best of luck in climbing the ranks as high as he could. With little more than a twitch of feathered wings to indicate their amusement, the Nasir hoisted their shield up and bounded into the undergrowth, seeking new prey.

They both knew who'd win in a fight. Thankfully, these sorts of games were as much about showmanship as they were trying to win.

'Try' being the operative word.

With a smirk, he slithered back into the shadows, relying on training rather than his Song to hide him.

On the other side of the arena, Mz. Hyde and Millie had just finished dispatching their group of assailants. For a moment, it seemed as if stillness would overtake their surroundings, punctuated only by the softly pained groans their foes made as they were swiftly taken away Nasir wearing mint green sashes- presumably, based on the fact they loaded the group onto stretches, medical staff.

No sooner had the Nasir vacated the premises than the gargantuan boulder-like creature Charricthran had noticed earlier charged its way into the clearing, roaring something fierce and rumbling.

Like a rockslide, if you were inclined towards accurate metaphors.

It hurled something tall and feathered- probably another Nasir, frankly- like one would throw a shotput, then turned to face the two of them.

Its gem-like eyes and the markings carved into its skin glowed with what could only be described as bloodlust. This lasted for two seconds at best before it began to barrel its way towards them.

GET DOWN!

\*Mz. Hyde screamed as she shoved Millie out of the way of the giant rock monster, dodging him just in time.\*

SHIT! How are we supposed to beat a giant rock guy with FOAM weapons?!

Millie had already seen the big brute coming practically a mile away and was about to make a last minute dodge like a matador in a bull-fight to confuse the giant and impress the crowd, just when she heard Mz. Hyde scream as she was pushed out of the way to the ground.

"Agh! What the smeg!?"she said as she got up again, then noticing the giant was coming back.

She was already thrown off her game by the shove and now was just in surviver mode.

"How 'bout we get away from it first!?" She said grabbing Mz. Hyde's arm and running into the tall grass, trying to lose the giant.

It was plenty easy to lose the rock-like creature, as soon there was a hooting battle cry and a fresh wave of Nasirian warriors to occupy its attention. Focus shifted to a new battle, the pair quickly lost what little interest the creature had in them.

Silence greeted them in the tall grass, though it was far from peaceful. Several pairs of eyes could be felt in places unseen. The battle had begun in earnest, shifting like a tide beyond the horizon of vision.

Elsewhere in the arena, Charricthran had waded deep into war. The Nasir were familiar to him, but that hardly meant that he was allowed to slack off. Really, it meant the opposite, because they knew it as well, and thus, did their damndest to surprise him.

He moved like water and smoke, turning the momentum of each opponent against them, slipping or flipping out of range with lethal grace. Punches and kicks were grabbed mid-flight and used to throw combatants into trees or into each other, and his sudden dodges had the Nasir hitting each other more than they hit him.

He took a blow here and there for the sake of awaiting better openings, but on the whole he was untouchable, and not for lack of physicality.

Charricthran dared to wager that he'd have some bruises when all was said and done. It wasn't like he was wearing armor, after all.

Eventually the dull roar in his ears faded, and with a blink and a shake of the head, he slipped out of blood lust and adrenaline to evaluate his surroundings.

Seven more combatants felled, feathers in hues of gray-blue, brown, black, and white.

He chuckled and shook his head ruefully, then rolled his shoulders to alleviate some of the energy sparking and snapping under his skin.

He felt alive.

The underbrush closed around him once more.

Millie watched the giant suddenly switch to a new battle. When she was sure the brute was gone she stood up, the grass was still well over her head.

"He's gone now..." Millie sighed slightly relieved though she knew they weren't out of the woods yet.

As she watched the giant barral through his new opponents like they were nothing, she could since other potential enemies around them. She started weighing the options of taking the giant out so they wouldn't have to fight him later or face the new threat around them first.

She suddenly turned to Mz. Hyde and without realizing the debate she was having with herself was only in her head asked, "Well, what do you think?"

Whoever was hiding in the trees didn't make themselves immediately known.

The sounds of battle faded into a loud whisper as more and more fell to friend and foe alike.

Whzzzzzt!

A dart flew out from the brush nearby, aimed towards Mz. Hyde. The tip glinted something menacingly in the arena's light as it raced towards her with all the hunger of a predator.

The leaves nearby rustled once, then lay still.

Millie heard sound of the dart shooting through the air and didn't hesitate or give a cry of warning before immediately knocking Mz. Hyde out of the dart's path. It missed them by a hair's breath as it whizzed past them and pierced the ground.

"Damnit..." She said immediately lefting Mz. Hyde back to her feet, "I'm pretty sure..." She plucked the dart from the ground, "these are illegal here."

She scowled towards where the dart came from as she pocketed the dart.

The arena continued to slowly fall quiet as more and more contestants joined the legions in the infirmary.

Charricthran, for his part, mostly stayed on the defense. The rare few times he did join a skirmish, it was with the explosive sort of grace of a flamenco dancer, whirling, twirling, and flipping his way to victory.

All this was distant in the quiet of the clearing.

Millie nodded at Mz. Hyde's question "....It doesn't look like whoever shot dart doesn't want to actually face us..." after a moment of watching the grass looked towards the rock giant off in the distance for a space, then a smirk grew on her face and she looked back at Mz. Hyde, "Come on, let's hunt down that cheater first." She said with a determined grin as she smacked her fist into her palm.

( Millie paused to a beat to process the suggestion, still holding her hand to her head. Her brain being a lot buggier then usual made her responsive ability more sluggish. She nodded, "Y-yeah... That sounds good..." She breathed.

Catt nodded in agreement.

"If you're gonna be okay on your own Millie, I think I have an apology to go make. Sorry Millie, Dr. Rose."

Nodding to each, she turned to leave the conversation.

Moments passed, marked distinctly by the firm hand guiding her out of the crowded room through corridors, and finally, to a quiet parlor.

He didn't care whose, they could have it back later, when the iron left the air.

A wooden door shuts gently behind them. )

There, now we're all safe

@MillieGriffin

Millie remained silent as she looked around the new room. She was unfamiliar with this room but that seemed to put her somewhat at ease. There were no previous memories to taint this place in her mind, yet...

She quietly set her pie down on the coffee table but didn't sit or speak, despite the new environment she was still trying to concentrate to keep her mind from swallowing her whole. So once again she stood seemingly frozen in place.

((Brief info: Turn order is 86, Fox, WB, Madder, Millie.))

"Ah, right, sorry I didn't inform you sooner," Weir said to Utterson and

Isabella. "Hawley betrayed the Society to Moriarty and his henchmen, who

were posing as police and attacked us not a month ago. Moriarty wished

to steal everyone's research and turn it to nefarious ends, though don't

spread that around. I'm certain you've read in the newspapers about his

death in a pitched battle with London's finest. There was no avoiding

it, they say. And about the body of the man he'd murdered found in his

Oxford office. Pomeroy, I think his name was. I wouldn't put it past

Moriarty to have done the same to Hawley, quite frankly, given he was a

pawn who'd likely outlived his usefulness."

He shook his head.

"Dreadful business."

Millie's uncle spoke of the previous day's events.

"Perhaps there was some further alteration in her physiology," ventured Lewis.

"Who knows, with that bloody green fog about? The whole city was pure

pandemonium!" A pause, Weir's expression softening. "Is there anything I

can do for her?"

The Fox • 2 days ago

Utterson listened closely to Weir. He shook his head when he finished.

"I had heard of it in the news but I had no idea you were all involved.

I'm sorry that you were in the thick of it. I couldn't have imagined

that someone would think to sell the Society out. "

He sipped his ale and hiccuped.

" Oh goodness, Pardon me!

Y'know, if the two of them were caught, I'd have been glad to lay the law on him. There ain't a better weapon than that. "

He caught Griffin's and Weir's exchange and cut in politely.

" Maybe she ought have a meal brought up to her? She seemed pretty hungry last night if recall. "

Theimage of the chimera was surprisingly foggy in his memories. You'd

think that he'd remember seeing someone changed into something so odd,

but that wasn't the case here.

That, or the ale was finally getting to him. At the very least he didn't cry so much with ale like he did with whiskey.

"Hawley was working WITH Moriarty? Why, the... The last time I saw him was when he turned up in the pouring rain like a drowned rat saying he'd been kidnapped, and I let him in and made him toast, and precious little thanks I got - you know what he is - but a drowned rat is a drowned rat." Isabella wasn't often seen this angry. "If I'd've known, I'd've left him to stand on the doorstep!" She nodded to Utterson.

"You're right... it's hard to think of any of us doing something like that. Usually it's us versus the world. Mind you, he was always a bit... worrying... but I always told

myself that was just Hawley, you know? I read somewhere, can't remember who, but saying how people always think you must know what you're doing if you're rude to them. They called it 'the glamour of incivility'," she said with a short laugh.

"What did become of him?"

Brent took a slow sip of his ale, listening quietly. He wasn't quite sure it wasn't entirely the ale's fault at this point but he had absolutely no clue what was going on because no one had filled him in one much of anything about this. He had heard of this Moriarty fellow before. His friends down at the market had spoken of him before quite disdainfully. He sounded like a right arse if Brent had anything to make of it. And given what had been said up until this point about him, Brent found this only supported his theory.

Brent sluggishly shrugged. "Who knows and who cares," he replied, his words starting to slur together as he spoke. "If... if he betrayed the Society th-then he has no right to be here. Tha-that's my take on it anyway."

((MillieGriffin))

Griffin was silent while the others talked, pondering Weir's offer. He still didn't like having to receive help from Weir, he still had his pride after all, but then...

"I don't... know..." He honestly said "what could you do?"he asked as he again refilled his cup.

"Thank you, Gabriel," said Weir to Utterson.

"Well said, Brent," he replied to Madder.

Turning to Isabella, he ventured, "I imagine Moriarty's...disposed of him. That or Hawley's left the country, if he has a brain at all. In either case, we're well rid of him."

"I'm not entirely certain," he said to Griffin. "Talk to her, perhaps. Offer her something to eat, as Gabriel suggested." A shrug. "Reassure her it wasn't her fault. Little things."

"Well I tried what I could already..." He set his cup down to guester pass them way an air of annoyance, "I even bought that stupid pie for her and she's not doing anything with it, she just standing there with.... Uh... who's that pink women?"

Weir nodded to Utterson.

"Hm?"

Lewis looked to the person Griffin indicated.

"Oh," said Weir with a chuckle. "How fortuitous. That's Dr. Henry Rose--psychologist and sometime counselor for the Society."

A continuation of Christmalogy--the thread splits into two, with Brent and Mz. Hyde and some other lodgers in one group, helping pick up scattered presents and fix the sleigh; and Santa, Hela, Lewis, and Isabella in another group, heading to the kitchen because Santa wants cookies.

Turn order for the first group is Madder, Mz. Hyde, and whoever else cares to join. Turn order for the second group is Mz. Hyde (as Santa), Helen (as Hela), 86, and WB.

It is currently Madder's turn on the first thread and Mz. Hyde (as Santa)'s turn on the second thread.))

MadderJanobii Guest • 25 days ago

Brent shook his head a little and shrugged. “I guess I have do as the lady requests. I shall help attend to the sleigh then. Perhaps we can figure out some way to put all the pieces back together,” he muttered to himself as he looked over the sleigh.

At Isabella’s arrival, Brent glanced up. He shrugged at her question and answered, “I… don’t actually know what to think. I haven’t been here long enough to say for sure with the society that no one would pull a stunt like this but at the same time saying this for sure is the great Saint Nicholas does make me sound a bit insane does it not?”

Mz.Hyde Mod MadderJanobii • 25 days ago

Of course he's the real Santa! Just LOOK! He has EVERYTHING! The sleigh! The reindeer! The suit!

\*When Hela spoke, Mz. Hyde got really suspicious. Hela with Santa in the kitchen? That's a terrible idea!\*

I don't know....

\*Isabella enters.\*

Ah! Isabella! Could you and Lewis go with Santa and Hela?

Helen Jekyll Mz.Hyde • 24 days ago

“I’m sure it would be fine if she tagged along,” Hela said carefully, giving the supposed Santa Claus a smile, “Come along, the kitchen is this way.”

She turned to lead Lewis, Santa, and Isabella to the kitchen.

Jekyll1886 Helen Jekyll • 22 days ago

Lewis, meanwhile, had just made a note in the little journal he kept on him, quietly and torn it out, and stashed the journal back in his waistcoat pocket while keeping the note hidden in his hand.

"That would certainly be fine with me," he said with a smile to Walker.

"Shall we, Isabella?"

He offered his arm to her, and surreptitiously slipped her the note when no one was looking. It read thusly:

Don't know who this man is, what he wants here. He's damaged our roof, knows things he shouldn't. Claims to be Santa Claus. Mz. Hyde believes him. I don't.

Wizardblizzard Jekyll1886 • 21 days ago

"By all means." Taking Lewis's arm she turned and followed, giving absolutely no sign of having noticed anything.

A little further along, when Hela and "Santa" seemed not to be looking, she glanced at the note, frowned, nodded just a little.

((Madder and Mz. Hyde, your go!))

"My goodness. Thank you!" She flipped over the first few pages before remembering that someone was trying to talk to her. "Mustn't eat it all at once," she laughed.

Jekyll1886 Wizardblizzard • 5 days ago

"Glad you like it," returned Lewis with a smile.

"Thank you for your gift as well--it's quite beautiful. I must say, such realistic artistry in metalwork is a rare thing indeed."
