::Uh...I'm not entirely sure...I guess just spend time doing stuff together? Like, uh...homework, and uh....hanging out and...stuff?::
::Alright. I don't know how much more we can help here tonight. I think we're just getting in the way at this point. Do you want to clear out?::
"It's okay, Kitty. It's okay. You're safe now. We'll get you healed up and then you can tell me who did this to you so I can kill them...slowly," he said, putting an arm around her shoulders and helping her sit up.
"Look, Saffire is here too. Dom brought you back to life and then little girl named Sara healed you and Saffire some and then this slightly unnerving young man healed you some more. You're going to be okay, Kitty, I promise."
"what do you mean slightly unnerving?" he casts another cure light on her throat specifically

::Yeah, I think that's best. You should ask Phaeze if there's a time limit on the silence effect he put on you. If there is you'll need to see Professor Sunwake to get your bracelet fixed. Otherwise, she's probably busy and it can wait for morning.::
Asha giggled. "Well, if it's Tryko'Sam I don't think I'd mind...he's cute. So ...you're friends with him? He's kinda the first person I met here actually," she said, wandering around the smallish room, apparently not at all disturbed by the thought of breaking all of her culture's taboos about sex. To be honest, she found the idea intriguing and perhaps little exciting.
"Yes! He's great. He actually gave me the idea to attend here as a student. If you want to stay here and get comfortable, I can go see if he's interested." she looks down at her uncovered top. "Do you think I should not be naked? I mean... maybe that's why we were getting glares? Dom kept trying to cover me up even though he was clearly looking. It was strange."

::Right.::
::Hey Phaeze, how long will this silence last? Do I need to see about getting my bracelet fixed right away?::
"You're right, Zilla-chan!" the little idyllkin takes Zilla's hand and stands, then bends over to help Hew stand as well, smiling happily - practically ecstatic at having once again found her friends. "Ano... the wall is working, who should we find first?"
Zilla joyfully smiles feeling much safer being with people she trusted. "We should probably go to the biggest group of them. That way as a group we can find the others." She suggests.
Hew takes Midori's hand with his face turning slightly red as he looked at it in his own. Taking his staff back from Zilla returns to using it to help prop himself up.
"Oh! Ok..." he stops his attempt to bend.
"Are you sure it's her doing it?"
Anahita doesn't nod or what not, but simply says, "My newfound sense indicates that /she/ is the source of these .. minute creatures that are spreading out-- intentional or not, she needs to be contained. I am ill prepared for combat today."
Her concentration continues on attempting to keep the Wall of Fire 'enclosed' to prevent any further spreading of virus (things), and close off the top too, if at all possible.
"Well maybe I can help...Ephebe, you may want to back up..." this time, he tries to use his bending to intensify the fire, instead of hinder it...
...and can't seem to gain hold of the magical fire.
Dom can be seen in side the make shift infirmary treating random people. Always seeming to look toward Tami to make sure she's still there and a while of doing that he returns to Tami's side. "I think my healing ability is starting to wain. I've over taxed it today."
Asha giggled. "Well, if it's Tryko'Sam I don't think I'd mind...he's cute. So ...you're friends with him? He's kinda the first person I met here actually," she said, wandering around the smallish room, apparently not at all disturbed by the thought of breaking all of her culture's taboos about sex.

I mean... maybe that's why we were getting glares? Dom kept trying to cover me up even though he was clearly looking. It was strange."
"Hmm...I did notice that most of the others were wearing clothes. It might be some kind of taboo...but what do I know? I've been locked in a tower for the last sixteen years."
"Tryko'Sam was helping with repairs and stuff I guess...so he might be busy....but maybe after he's done he can come have some educational time with us," she said with a mischievous grin.

"It's okay, melnestae. You did a lot of good today. Especially bringing Kitty back. Come on, let's find you a spot to sit down and rest for a bit," she said, taking his hand and drawing him away from the area where patients and healers were milling around.
He takes her hand and follows along. "I just hope it's enough. I even used most of my arcane music to help." He takes a seat out of the way. "I'm glad your safe. I don't know what I would do if you had been killed."
::"I'm currently speaking with the Headmaster, but once finished, I can help where ever I am needed. Any suggestions?"::
"Wait it might!- . . . . Aaaaand she's gone. . . . "
*sigh*
He looks at Ghalen.
"Maybe you should talk to her about that. . . ."
marcell swims into the lunchroom.
"Jeez. This day is such a mess."
::Yeah, I think that's best. You should ask Phaeze if there's a time limit on the silence effect he put on you. If there is you'll need to see Professor Sunwake to get your bracelet fixed. Otherwise, she's probably busy and it can wait for morning.::::Right.::

The girl in the stasis pod ceases her silent chant of "no." She turns to Anahita and Mithros and, in a voice that can barely be heard over the roaring of the flames, begs, "Please. I don't want to hurt anyone. They made me like this. They will never stop. She will never stop. Please, kill me if you..." She shudders and goes limp.
The effect that Ephebe's physical makeup has on the virus is nothing short of astonishing. She can actually feel the stuff spreading throughout her system, and a wave of vertigo goes through her. She staggers back a step, collapsing to one knee as she tries to retain consciousness.
When Mithros fails to augment the fire, he sees Ephebe stagger back out of the corner of his eye. She seems pretty woozy and drops to a knee bracing her hands on knee and ground to not fall over.
Anahita feels the virus horde beginning to survive the fire. Somehow they are ceasing to be affected by it. [EDIT] Anahita can also sense that Ephebe is .. changing. She is less how she was and is becoming more like the feel of the viruses. An oozey, burney, corrupt feel. [/EDIT]
End Round 2
"Hey! Uhh...lady? Not-Ephebe! Can you use a spell to put her back in stasis? maybe that'll stop the whatever-it-is? I'd like to not have to kill her, if possible..." he moves over to steady Ephebe "aww jeez! Are you ok?!"
Over the radio
"Boss, I dunno what this stuff is, but it looks like your sister is dizzy from it...she may be infected..."
"Wait it might!- . . . . Aaaaand she's gone. . . . "
*sigh*
He looks at Ghalen.
"Maybe you should talk to her about that. . . ."
"Her self confidence is one of her more endearing qualities, my friend." he says with a hint of pride.
"Hello Fei. Are you ill?" he asks, concerned.
"....Not in body, no, Krays," Fei finally replies as he slowly regains his feet and stands.
"I...do not know if they can be returned to the living after you send their spirits on, but I hoped that their chances would be improved if you were the one to do so," he continues, his voice heavy with grief.
"I will...bring them into the Cafeteria afterward if they can be raised - I know I need to be back in there helping the living."
Zilla joyfully smiles feeling much safer being with people she trusted. "We should probably go to the biggest group of them. That way as a group we can find the others." She suggests.
Hew takes Midori's hand with his face turning slightly red as he looked at it in his own. Taking his staff back from Zilla returns to using it to help prop himself up.
"I think the cafeteria is our regrouping point. We should go there first." Midori nods, using military terminology once again. She looks down at her hand as Hew takes it and then back up and him with a bright smile, before taking Zilla's hand in her other, and the three make their way down the hallway towards the cafeteria.
"Hmm...I did notice that most of the others were wearing clothes. It might be some kind of taboo...but what do I know? I've been locked in a tower for the last sixteen years."
"Tryko'Sam was helping with repairs and stuff I guess...so he might be busy....but maybe after he's done he can come have some educational time with us," she said with a mischievous grin.
Rena looks a little conflicted... not that it truly mattered - there was no clothes in here to put on anyway. Other than Vare's robes and she was pretty sure those wouldn't fit over her wings. Rena's curiosity is piqued slightly at Asha's tale of a tower, but she sets it aside for the moment. She could ask later.
Asha's saucy grin is met with an innocent smile of Rena's. "Yes, hopefully he will. Maybe we can occupy ourselves until after he's busy."
With that, Rena steps once again into the hallway, and places a hand on the wall. She shivers slightly at the feel of the cool stone, but imagines Tryko'Sam, conjuring the arrows, which she then follows to the infirmary.
In to the infirmary walks an Angel... perhaps not literally, but she definitely has the wings for it, and the long flowing blue-white hair, which for the moment has done a decent job of covering her decency. Or maybe it's even more enticing this way - a girl wearing no top but her hair. The rest of her body could make Aphrodite jealous - curvy and smooth in all the right ways, with an air of innocence and playfulness about her as well. She looks around and spots Tryko'Sam, making her way over to him.
::Jaiye and I were just saying how we were in the way, so I'm not sure Ace. Most of the wounded are healed now... there's alot of people pulling out all the stops to get people healed. You should've seen what the Conjuration professor did.::
::Thanks Phaeze... I think I see you, coming over now. Don't worry too much about me - there are others who deserve your attention more. Weren't you working on something to help that firebird girl? What was her name?::
Ehos spots the little quasit still flitting about in the healing section that had been setup inside the cafeteria. He heads over to him, holding hands with Jaiye. To Jaiye: ::Phaeze says he'll make it permanent so that we don't have to trouble Professor Sunwake for a while. I'm sure she's busy enough. I'll just have to get my old notepad until then.::
Suddenly, for the umpteenth time that day, Jiminy's comm crackles to life. The voice of one of his employees comes on the line. They were on high alert now after all, and this was probably more bad news...
"Boss, this is TacCom." The operator says brusquely. "We are tracking several aerial organic signatures moving at speed directly towards Avalon. Fido is not here and Sunbeam is already deployed. Interception isn't possible at this moment, please advise."
Discarding the used tissue, Vai takes a deep breath, steadying herself and calming herself. They could beat this. Just like they had beaten everything else. Just like they would beat the Empire if it came to that. Which was hopefully never.
"Alright, I'm going to go help James. The Dawn will come again tomorrow, and we'll be stronger for this." she says solemnly, bowing her head slightly. She is /definitely/ picking some things up from Fei, including his religion, at least somewhat.
She's in the infirmary with a flash of light, and immediately blushes, seeing the half-naked girl, and turns away to James. "What can I do?"
She also sends Vai a message on the same frequency used to contact her: ::Fei, it's hard, but we can get through this. I'll ask Mel if you can stay with us tonight alright?:: He had been strong for her so many times, it was her turn to be strong for him.

"Uh... Hi."
settro looks her over, head to toe."Look, you may want to cover yourself up. People are getting aroused by you, including myself."

"Hmm...I did notice that most of the others were wearing clothes. It might be some kind of taboo...but what do I know? I've been locked in a tower for the last sixteen years."

Arthur looks over at the half naked woman and has to restrain himself from whistling appreciatively.
Mel can't help wonder why people, or should we say, men, have stopped working.
glancing at the source of the disturbance Mel looks for a bit then rolls her eyes men she whispers.
she does take a moment to see Arthur's reaction as well as Tryko'Sam's. Could give her some insight as to what to expect in their personalities.
of course she isn't doing much to prevent the reactions she mutters then goes back to work.
I wonder how Kai is doing. hope he isn't causing trouble
"Uh... Hi."
settro looks her over, head to toe.
"Look, you may want to cover yourself up. People are getting aroused by you, including myself."
Rena looks him up and down in the same way and smiles at him. He was somehow simultaneously the ugliest and most beautiful creature Rena had seen yet, and he seemed nice enough besides. Plus, he had scales...
Before even responding, Rena strokes Settro's scaly arm, her eyes roll back slightly in pleasure. "Ohhh, scales are nice. You are quite beautiful." she says simply, before continuing on.
"I'm sorry, I just got this body and everything is so new. Isn't being aroused a good thing?" Settro feels no negative emotions of any kind from her - just pleasure, curiosity, joy at almost every sensation. It's pretty Lusty though, all things considered, if Settro is attuned to Sin.
"... Yes, yes they are.
To a degree, arousal is good, But not right now, it isn't. People are busy, and you are distracting them."
"Well, my apologies then. I hadn't.. realized the effect I would have on others. Though, Shaypeer did say I would turn heads. I'll just speak to Tryko'Sam quickly and then leave. Alright?" She says, turning towards business for a moment, her tone serious at the chastising.
"I did /try/ to cover up a little." she briefly strokes her hair, which is covering her up somewhat - though as previously noted and depending on the individual, that might be even more tantalizing.
They wait. And wait. The ten minutes are up and Tyrrin doesn't reappear in the hallway.
"I hope your string works, Tybalt..."
"Here, one second."
settro goes through the infermary and finds a bed sheet. With some magic, he makes in into two nice stips of cloth. If allowed, he puts each one diagonally over her breasts, up and across the shoulder, and ties them in the back.
"I understand not wanting your wings constrained. This should do the job without holding your wings down at all."
Settro can feel her shiver with pleasure as she does his work to ensure she's a little more covered up than before.
"Thank you. I'm Rena, what's you're name?" she waits for a response before saying, while stroking his scaly arm once again. "We'll talk again later, alright?" And then she walks over to where Tryko'Sam is, all smiles and a bit more covered up now.
settro gags a little.
"Settro."
"ugh this was a bad idea, we should have dimensionally anchored ourselves, and dispelled it when we got through we can't even get her out because I don't know if a dispel would hurt her, or even trap her there forever" Dave says as he paces back and forth.
Michael is looking around when he hears Keme say "Kitty" and "Saffire". He turns quickly and sees her, almost breaking down as he runs over. He's not even sure if holding her would hurt her right now...
"Looks like its gonna have to work."
He tugs on the string at the entrance to see if she gets the message to follow it back.
"I know, I just hate watching from the sidelines, not being able to do anything,"
"We just need to get her back here. Then we can all go in together. If this doesn't work we'll need to go in after her.
Oh and ghalen. Self confidence and reckless endangerment look a lot alike sometimes. Not that she can't have both." :/
"I am sure you are quite right. I will defer to your expertise on the subject." he does not look happy that Tyrrin is still in there.
She also sends Vai a message on the same frequency used to contact her: ::Fei, it's hard, but we can get through this. I'll ask Mel if you can stay with us tonight alright?:: He had been strong for her so many times, it was her turn to be strong for him.
:It is alright, Vai. I will not be stopping any time soon - there are too many things that must be done and cannot be delayed. As I no longer need to sleep, I will continue working so those that do need rest can get it. There will be time for...stillness later.: he replies, his tone a bit less...harried than before, and more resolute.
:I will (hopefully) be back in the Cafeteria as soon as Krays finishes his work here.:
"Should we go in after her? We'll be able to track her inside the spell.. assuming we all go to the same one..."
