Piami continued to kneel on the floor, still trying to let everything that happened sink in. Why did this happened?
Piami looked next to her and see that Iksel is just as confused and shocked about the situation as she was. Well... at least she's not alone in this....
At that point, the only people outside her soulmate Piami can trust right now are Maicy and Aberdeen. She looks up to Maicy and Aberdeen did help her out from Alti.
She would, however, feel safe around Galystris, Cheri, and Alraada (She just needs to talk to them more.) than Vale, Amil, Alti, and ESPECIALLY Nace. She is still unsure about Cyrus, though..
She looked towards Iksel, feeling a little scared to ask what she wanted to ask but regardless, she managed
"I-Iksel.... Sh-Should we had upstairs? E-Everything has gotten too crazy...."

"Huh?" he absentmindedly responded, his focus suddenly shifting from his designs to the exasperated tone in his partner's voice. Was the other man still bothered because of his earlier actions or because of the situation with Vale? He didn't really know, but with everyone else starting to clear out of the lounge, he didn't care to stay at the scene of all these incidents either. "Uh, yeah OK!" he said, picking himself off of the couch and opening a large-enough portal to his right while he watched his soulmate catch up. "Oh! And congrats on your win~" he mused, nervously pressing his sketchbook to his chest. "I haven't started your prize yet, but I'll be sure to make it amazing, OK?" Cyrus looked over at his somewhat anxious-sounding partner. Had he been shaken by Vale's sudden pissfit, or were the game's earlier events starting to get to him? But he seemed to brighten up just a touch as he congratulated him on his win. "Oh, thanks. It's too bad it caused such a shitstorm huh," the scientist laughed a little bit uneasily, gaze falling to the ground before returning back to Alti. While his irrational frustration from earlier had lost its initial sting, it still continued to gnaw at him and he could feel it seeping through his tone of voice as they continued to speak. How irritating...
"Alright! I don't know if I'll be able to pull off some of your designs but uh, I trust your judgment," he chuckled softly, glancing down at the spiral-bound sketchbook and pointing at it. "Did ya get any other designs done? You'll have to show me back in the room, yeah?" He stepped through the portal back into their hotel room and sighed, wringing his hands a little bit as he waited for his partner to join him and close up the rift behind him. Despite all his attempts to keep the conversation light-hearted, he could just feel how stilted his tone was, fighting all desire to cringe visibly at his own voice. I probably sound like a fucking moron. But the question that had been planted in his mind since the beginning of the game continued to nag at him persistently and irritatingly now that he was no longer distracted by the flurry of events. It ain't gonna stop until I say something, is it. After some internal debate, he chewed on his inner cheek before turning back towards Alti, hands still nervously clasped. "I'm uh..." he paused for a moment, chewing on his words before once again speaking. "I'm not... boring you, am I?" |

Alti nodded his partner off, excited to show off his other designs to his partner as he stepped through the portal. While they weren't exactly designs he could see himself sporting, they demonstrated that he could indeed design for almost anybody and just how much thought he put into his work, and while he usually shrugged off any verbal attacks made at his attire from strangers, it'd mean so much to him that his soulmate at least would see past their outlandish nature and see something more... personal. The rift closing behind him, Alti removed the pencil from the spiral and flipped the book open, looking up at Cyrus once he got to the right page. He raised an eyebrow at his soulmate's change in attitude. Had all the excitement from a few moments taken its toll on his partner's nerves? But the question that had been planted in his mind since the beginning of the game continued to nag at him persistently and irritatingly now that he was no longer distracted by the flurry of events. It ain't gonna stop until I say something, is it. After some internal debate, he chewed on his inner cheek before turning back towards Alti, hands still nervously clasped. "I'm uh..." he paused for a moment, chewing on his words before once again speaking. "I'm not... boring you, am I?" "What?" He was utterly bewildered. Where had such a thought even come from? With all the fun they had earlier at the amusement park, he'd think that'd be the last thought on his partner's mind, but... where did he get that idea from, then? Did he do something wrong during Twister? Whatever the reason may be, the clear answer to the question was- "No!" he blurted as if it were common sense. "Where'd ya get that from?" |

Did he do something wrong during Twister? Whatever the reason may be, the clear answer to the question was- "No!" he blurted as if it were common sense. "Where'd ya get that from?" The scientist froze for a moment, somewhat surprised and taken aback by the prompt and candid answer from his partner. From what he'd gathered over their time together, he certainly wasn't the type to lie if he was dissatisfied. In fact, he'd more often than not give his opinion sugar-free, blunt, and unfiltered. A small sigh of relief involuntarily escaped Cyrus's lips, his gaze diverting to the side as he ruffled the back of his hair. Phew... But there was still the matter of explaining and clarifying the situation. "Really? E-Even y'know... in bed?" He paused to mentally kick himself for that stutter, collecting his thoughts before continuing. "You were so quick to try and get your kicks by having that bodyguard beat you up... I wasn't sure if maybe I just wasn't delivering," Cyrus chuckled a little bit sheepishly, finally looking over at Alti and holding the back of his neck. He could feel a small amount of heat pooling in his cheeks, silently cursing just how unsure of himself he looked right now. Self-uncertainty was never something he liked to display. |

He could feel a small amount of heat pooling in his cheeks, silently cursing just how unsure of himself he looked right now. Self-uncertainty was never something he liked to display. Alti's expression dropped at the scientist's words, a sheepish grin slowly creeping up seconds after once the other man explained his reason for asking such a ridiculous question. So, it was Twister... he thought, the uncomfortable moment bringing a light pink hue onto his cheeks as he fished around for the second explanation for his actions for this day. "Heh, nooooooo......" he mused, making an attempt at lightening the mood. "I was just trying to get rid of that girl so we could play with the green team like I originally had planned! I guess you could say getting her bodyguard to hit me was a bit of a bonus, but psssh.... you saw how THAT turned out, ehehehehe......" He recalled how the fire-eyed woman was so easily strapped back by one of the weaker-looking individuals tailing her and averted his eyes in mild frustration. "Guess she wasn't as strong as I thought!" he said with a shrug, not caring enough about either of the strangers to continue thinking about them. "What a shame. Dragged on way longer than I would've liked." He looked back at his flustered soulmate. "But you're fiiiiiiiiiiiine~!" |

Cyrus's body language entirely relaxed as Alti explained the earlier events, a small smile tugging at the scientist's lips. "Phew! That's a load off my mind," he sighed in relief, his full weight dropping back onto his bed and beginning to mentally process the situation downstairs. "Well, if ya ever DO get bored, I'm up to trying almost anything," he chuckled softly to further lighten the mood, his soulmate-related tension at the very least evaporating. There was still the issue of the Green Team's drama, and while he couldn't help but be concerned for Alraada having to console her nearly murderous partner, he frankly didn't see how his worry would help anything. A few moments of ceiling watching later, he rolled into an upright sitting position, pointing at the sketchbook that Alti had flipped open since they'd returned to the room. "So uh, you were gonna show me what you'd worked on?" |

Alti shook his head and chuckled as he walked over to his soulmate's bed and seated himself next to his partner, the man smirking deviously at that last comment. "I'll keep that in mind~" he cooed, kicking his legs back and forth as if he were kicking the last few remnants of their awkward conversation that still wafted through the air out of the room. A few beats of silence later and the scientist spoke up. "So uh, you were gonna show me what you'd worked on?" " -YES." he answered automatically, excitedly scooting himself closer to Cyrus before presenting the page on the other man's lap. "Look! Aren't they cute? I can totally see them wearing this." {Spoiler - Click to View}  |

Thankfully, Cheri had their soulmate by their side. They blushed at Galystris' affirmation as well as her compliment, though they bashfully shook their head. "Um... we should go, I don't think now's a good time." Galystris nodded. "Alright, I'd agree with you there." she said with a light nod. She looked back down at Cheri. "Though, I do not say this because I think you will be made fun of for your appearence. We just got caught in a place where the green wrestler decided to yell at everybody. That is why we should leave." she said firmly. She felt it nessecary to clarify, in case Cheri wanted to leave because they were afraid of people being rude to them about their quote unquote 'true form' It certainly was a rather windy night. Alraada felt Vale fall from her grip, and she immediantly panicked. "Vale! Oh shit...fuck, god fucking shit dammit, why?!" she whispered to herself. She was ready to reach for her bag where she had kept the needle that Vale had given her on the first day of the experiment. Her breath became shallow, and she began to shake. Her mind immediantly went to 'what if he dies'. She pulled her phone from her pocket and dialed up the person she trusted the most. In her contacts, he was 'Couchfucker', but she knew that this was Cyrus. She would have felt guilty for wasting more of his time, but she needed help, and fast. The hotel was fairly far away from the cafe: far enough away from it that she wasn't able to get Vale back there on her own. Unbeknownst to Alraada, though, another person stood behind a wall, watching the whole ordeal. The girl behind the wall stepped forward, having to stifle a smirk. " Need any help there?"
 Alraada directed her attention to the stranger. "W-W-Who are you?" Alraada inquired nearly inaudibly. This person seemed familiar to her, but she brushed it off quickly. The stranger bent down slightly and gave a smile. "Kellen. Now, do you need any help with your friend here?" She inquired politely. Alraada nodded. "Yeah....I need some help getting him back to the hotel over there...." she mumbled. "I couldn't refuse a damsel in distress, now could I? I'd be happy to help."Alraada nodded solemnly, still not ending the call with Cyrus just in case. "Thank you, Kellen." she mumbled. |

-YES." he answered automatically, excitedly scooting himself closer to Cyrus before presenting the page on the other man's lap. "Look! Aren't they cute? I can totally see them wearing this." Cyrus grinned as Alti sprang at the chance to show off his work, a sense of pride beaming from his partner as he plopped the sketchbook in his lap. "Let's see what we got," he hummed and leaned forward slightly to get a better look at the pencil sketches. While he entirely expected the taste to more closely align with the skin-displaying aesthetic his soulmate was notorious for, he was pleasantly surprised when instead he could immediately recognize who each of the outfits were for. And probably the two most body-hiding contestants at that. Personalized down to their tastes and preferences, these two clearly seemed to be for the green team. Grin spreading further across his face, he pointed first to Vale's. "Hey, I can totally see the power ranger sporting this one!" he chuckled, finger sliding next to the dress. "And this one's for Lettuce right? Or the little pop star? Although you probably would've made it more froofy in that case, eh?" he hummed, lifting the sketchbook a bit closer to his face before setting it back on his lap. "I bet they would've worn the crap out of these," he grinned widely, obviously impressed before pointing to the third template. By the stature and the lack of rage in the drawing of this template (he couldnt help but snicker at the frustration and sloppiness in the fifth and final mannequin), he could only assume this is where his prize was gonna go. "So what'd you have in mind for me?" he asked curiously, looking to his partner when he felt his butt vibrate. "Oh--" Pausing, he looked down at the light shining through the fabric of his pocket, wiggling the phone out before staring at the caller ID on the screen. 'Cabbage Patch Kid', accompanied by a Google image searched photo of a head of lettuce popped up on screen, the scientist perplexed for a moment before frowning. This was the first time she'd used his number, swapped after another back and forth about nerdier subjects while on the ride over to the beach. ...Bet it's about the luchador. Tapping the phone icon, he held the device up to his ear. "Hey kid, what's up?" |

"Cy? Cy, ok...." Her voice was panicked, still, but she tried to calm herself down. Kellen looked down at Alraada inquisitively as she began to talk on the phone. "Is this not a two person job?" Kellen asked, cocking an eyebrow." Alraada continued to speak anyways. "S-So, um...I sorta needed help getting Vale back to the hotel because his limbs stopped working again, and--" Alraada was cut off by Kellen taking the phone from her hands. "Don't worry, stranger. I can take care of this." Kellen said, followed by her ending the call. Alraada was about to speak, but Kellen interrupted her again by hoisting Vale up off of the ground. Alraada stood up and supported him on his other side. She was suspicious of Kellen, but at least she was being helped. "So, I never got your name, miss."
Alraada moved her gaze back over to Kellen. "Alraada." she spoke tentatively. Kellen gave a soft laugh, smiling as if something she was wondering was confirmed. "I see. It's a pleasure to meet you, Alraada." |

I can take care of this." Kellen said, followed by her ending the call. The scientist rolled up to his feet as the panicked voice on the other end snapped him to attention, along with another woman's voice in the background. "Back to the hotel? You guys out in front?" Vale had gone storming out towards the front door so he could only assume. Pacing back and forth, he glanced at Alti while listening intently to the call, furrowing his brow a bit. A foreign voice on the other end of the line caused Cyrus to pause midstep. "Who is this?? Hey Lettuce who was that? ...Alraada? Hello?" Before the phone could be handed back to its owner, apparently the call was ended, the signifying click causing the scientist to wince a bit. Shitty signal perhaps? "The fuck...?" Staring at the phone for a moment, the screen and its 'Call Ended' text signified that someone else had indeed just hung up the phone. What the hell was that about?
"Hey Alti, I think Green Team needs us out front. Wanna get us outside?" He frowned uneasily and stared down at his phone, tapping the screen a couple of times before dialing Alraada back. He just needed to be sure. Sandwiching the phone between his shoulder and his ear, he waited for Alti to rip open the rift, impatiently tapping his thigh with his hand as he waited for Alraada to pick up. |

That was the second time his feedback was interrupted by another couple's drama, Alti pouting at his sketches as his soulmate paced around to respond to what sounded like a panicked Lettuce on the other end. He couldn't mope for very long, though, for judging by the scientist's reaction the rather abrupt end to his call, something was wrong, and it only seemed to be partly Vale's fault. "Alright." Alti replied, feeling a bit mixed about how quickly Cyrus was willing to insert himself into another super's mess so fast but obliged to his request nonetheless. He glanced to Cyrus' right, a portal to the outside of the hotel appearing in seconds. "Let's go~" he said as he hopped off the bed, leaving his sketchbook on it before jumping through the rift and ignoring the perplexed looks from random civilians while his vision adjusted to the dark sky. |

"Thanks," he sighed and stepped through the portal, pursing his lips and putting the phone back in his pocket after it went for several rings and no answer. As the surroundings went from bright to dark, he blinked rapidly, trying to grasp his bearings before calling out. "Hey Lettuce! Where the fuck are ya?" Ignoring the strange looks the two of them were getting, he walked towards the outside of the lounge. Only a few drunk stragglers staggered their way around the outside, the scientist giving the area a once over before shaking his head. Not here. Turning on his heel, he jogged a bit in the other direction towards the cafe's facade, this time spotting a trio of people on the far end. There's those brightly colored dummies.
"Hey! There you are!" Cyrus called out, walking briskly towards the limp stringbean and partner and waving a bit. |

He just needed to be sure. Sandwiching the phone between his shoulder and his ear, he waited for Alti to rip open the rift, impatiently tapping his thigh with his hand as he waited for Alraada to pick up. While Kellen was entering her contact into the phone, another call started and she immediantly denied it. "What are you doing? Stop cancelling Cy's calls!" Alraada demanded. Kellen sighed. "This is a two person job, silly girl. We'll be there in no time.""You know, what you're doing is really weird! Give me my phone back." Kellen sighed, typing in the rest of her phone number into Alraada's phone, and gave it back to her once she was done. "Hey! There you are!" Cyrus called out, walking briskly towards the limp stringbean and partner and waving a bit.  Kellen grimaced as she heard Cyrus' voice. She'd have to speak with Alraada some other time. "Cy! Thank you so much for coming here....While I was calling you I got some help....so I'm sorry I wasted your time." she mumbled. Kellen sighed and gave Cyrus a smile. "Yes. I'm the aforementioned help."She dropped the weight of Vale completely onto Alraada's shoulders, and Alraada stumbled slightly, but was able to pull herself upward quickly.  "I believe that I am no longer needed. Such a shame. I'd hoped to get to know Miss Alraada here a little better. I may just follow this little experiment I'd heard you were all involved with, though. It seems rather...fascinating"Kellen gave them a wave. "So, if you don't mind, I'd enjoy spending more time with you all~" she said with a smile. Alraada was immediantly a bit creeped out. With the combination of the familiarity of this girl and her insistence on spending more time with them, she felt like there was more to her than what she put forward. "You don't have to..." she said skeptically. "Oh, no, I'd enjoy that quite a bit. Maybe I could meet up with you all sometime soon?"

"Hey no problem, kid." Cyrus moved to support Vale's other side, finally getting a good look at the third party individual as she spoke, his expression remaining deadpan. Something wasn't adding up about what she was saying, a bad feeling brewing in the pit of his stomach. Had Alraada been speaking with her about the experiment, or was she a friend of the scienshits in charge? Why did she hang up and deny his calls? And who the actual fuck just grabs another stranger's phone like that?!
He glanced over at Lettuce, taking note of her uncomfortable expression and tone before staring the strange woman in the eye. He quite frankly wasn't in the mood to deal with any weirdos. "Look lady, not sure who you are but we got this covered. Thanks for the help or whatever. Au revoir." He waved at her dismissively, deliberately ignoring her question and looking to Alti. "Let's get this big guy outta here."
