His first instinct was to say no and just watch shit go down, but once the last sentence of the proposed compromise fell on his ears, he contemplated the offer a bit. While he still considered himself and Alraada to be almost complete strangers, one quick look at the shaking scientist and the increased amount of pressure applied to his hand told him that keeping the girl alive was more than important. And even though he was still miffed with the bartender, staying in a positive light remained on top of his priorities. Slowly, he let go of his partner's hand, a bit mixed about entering another violent situation with Highlighter #1 right in front of his soulmate, but he proceeded anyway. Gotta keep the kid safe, I guess, he supposed to himself with a light smirk. He crossed his arms as he stepped forward, his eyes focused on the door. He glanced to the side where Alraada was lying as if to gesture to the medical team that just arrived to just get on with protecting the girl and quit wasting time with introductions. "Alright," he mumbled softly with a nod, taking a few steps until he was standing right beside Aberdeen. "Just make sure he doesn't get hurt, too...." he paused, taking a second to look for a save.
"I worked too damn hard to get him looking presentable. I don't need Vale ruining another one of my pieces~" he chuckled. "Trust me, as far as I'm concerned, that asshole isn't setting foot in this room." Aberdeen feigned confidence, although feeling a bit safer having Alti by their side despite the two's estrangement. Before Alti and Aberdeen could leave the room and deal with the luchador themselves, the girl they were protecting spoke up. Aberdeen was taken back by Alraada's words, the fighter pausing for a moment before looking back at Alraada. "YOUR fault!? What the hell are you talking about!? It's not YOUR fault your like this! If Vale hadn't THROWN the damn fountain, you wouldn't be in the damn hospital!! People don't just THROW fountains!" They spoke, their tone laced with agitation not towards Alraada, but towards the whole shitty situation in general. Aberdeen sighed in annoyance and stepped over to one side of Alraada's bed. "If you want him coming in, I guess that's alright. But he isn't coming anywhere near your bed. That asshole better stand at that damn doorway if he knows whats good for him. I don't wanna see anyone get hurt again, and that's final." They said sternly, it becoming clear Aberdeen had no intention of moving from Alraada's side so long as Vale was nearby.
Amil giggled at his partner as he headed towards the door. "Oh don't worry, with enough acting and the right words, this'll be over in a flash. Now, just follow my lead~" He chimed as he opened the door and walked down the hallway towards their fellow members' room. Amil cleared his throat a bit before putting on his most worried face and knocking against the door. "Piami! G-galystris! Are you alright!?" He called out, trying to sound as worried as possible in case the two actually WERE in the room.

Maicy stepped over next to Aberdeen. "A-Alraada. I don't know what was going down... but... I do know that this is not your fault.."
Piami would get a word from Galy, she hears.... Amil?? Is he worried about something?? Piami walked over answered the door. "Y-Yes, we're okay." Piami respond, sounding a little confused. "Is something okay?"

Vale went from door to door, opening each and pounding on the ones that were locked until he confirmed Alraada wasn't in them. He felt like he'd just start screaming if he didn't see her right this second.
He came to one of the last doors in the hall. He went up to it and tried the handle like all the others. He was greeted by a room full of people who probably despised him at this point in time. Apart of him wanted to run, or just scoop up his partner and high tail it out of the horrible medical facility, but even in this panicked state of mind he knew better than that. Despite how much his heart was racing, he tried to relax his stance to seem less tense. His breathing was still labored, and that he certainly couldn't hide after everything he'd been doing the last few hours.
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the door handle was still tilted down like something was holding it in place. He'd been trying to use his left hand again. "Oh fuck," He muttered, letting it go. The door fell back onto his shoulder and he hissed in pain from the sore area it bumped against. It flew back again, slamming against the wall hard enough to shake the room a bit, before slowly starting move back towards him. "Butter and chestnuts," He stumbled for a second before pushing against it with right hand and holding it to keep it from awkwardly coming towards him again. He tried to seem cool again as he stood in the doorway. "Um...Alraada?" His voice was weak, "C-Can I come in? If you'll let me." His posture went rigid once more despite himself as he awaited her response.

His posture went rigid once more despite himself as he awaited her response. "As long as you stand in the fucking doorway!" Aberdeen called out, their aura burning a bright red, bordering on black. "Wouldn't want another 'accident.' "
Amil turned and was greeted by the small pop idol. Perfect. Amil leaned over and hugged the girl. "Oh thank god your alright!! Didn't you hear? Vale went on a rampage! Nace and I tried calming him down, but... well it was clear he wasn't in much of a mood to talk... and then..." Real tears began welling up in the corners of Amil's eyes as he thought of what happened to Alraada. He stood up from the ground, looking back and forth between Galystris and Piami. "H-he...he threw a fountain towards...Nace and I and...... Alraada pushed us out of the way.... She took the fountain head on." He managed to mutter. "She's in the hospital. No telling how she's doing..." He looked towards Nace with a worried look before looking back at the two women. "I'm just glad to see that you two are alright! Everyone else is at the hospital, I presume. You're lucky to have avoided that whole onslaught... Vale was really out for blood in that fight..."

Alraada sat up to greet Vale. "Hey...." She said nervously, coupling it with smile that looked rather forced. (( gyazo.com/1f6e65ab64dced5cc7dd3575c908b4e1 )) She knew she wanted him in here, but she was till scared. "A-and yeah, like Aberdeen said, you're welcome in here..." She spoke. She nervously looked around the room, giving 'thank yous' through her expressions to the others who had reassured her that it wasn't her fault that she was nearly flattened by a fountain. "You don't have to worry about me, I made it." She said with a smile. She pulled her hair now from her hair, untied it, and squeezed it with her free hand for comfort. "Sorry for....getting in the way of your fountain." She said with a nervous laugh. ------ Galystris looked at the desperate Amil. "I am aware of the situation. I have spoken to Miss Tyreithillis, and she has informed me of the wrongdoings of Vale...." Her eyes met Amil's directly. "And the wrongdoings of a few others. Thank you very much for your concern, and I pray that Alraada makes it out well." Her knowing expression carried a slight anger, as she could tell from his skewed version of the story that there was much more to his words than what he let on. "Is there anything else that you needed is for?" She inquired, cocking an eyebrow. (( cassiroll MonkeyandMooseInc ChibiGissy))

Amil looked towards Galystris, the man fighting every urge in his body to keep himself from scowling at the woman or saying something snarky. "Tyrethillis must have told you that he and I got into a fight, yes? That I was the other one involved? Too bad she wasn't there to see it start. I walked up to Vale, greeting him and wanting to talk about our costumes together. But upon seeing Nace and I, he immediately assumed the worse." He frowned at Galystris. "As many people in this experiment do. That was it." He gave the two a warm smile and patted Piami on the head. "I just wanted to make sure the two of you were alright. And if you ever need anything, Nace and I are right down the hall!" He chimed as he began walking back towards their hotel room. "C'mon sweetheart! Let's leave these two alone for the night!" Once his back was to the two girls, his face immediately fell into a scowl. Galystris wasn't going to be easy to crack, but he'd get there eventually. He had plenty of time after all.

"As long as you stand in the fucking doorway!" Aberdeen called out, their aura burning a bright red, bordering on black. "Wouldn't want another 'accident.' " Vale flinched at the harsh tone Aberdeen used against him. "You don't have the full story..." He whispered, his eye pleading as it turned to Alraada. "And it was an accident. Surely you know that." "No, you don't have to apologize. You just...came at a bad time." He took a step forward, but stopped when his eye landed on Aberdeen, his right hand clasped around the edge of the door as he tried to decide which of the two he should listen to. "Please let me come in," He almost begged to anyone that would give him permission. "You don't know what happened. I wasn't aiming at..." He trailed off, his grip loosening hopelessly as his eyes fell to the floor. "Please."
"Sorry, it was better if I didn't speak," Nace said when they were back in the room. "My word won't hold up very well. You'll have to do most of the talking." He lightly shrugged his partner in a playful fashion. "But hey, cheer up. People like Galy? Sure, they take a long time to trust anyone. But that just means they'll be easier to turn on Vale. She doesn't have to be on our side, remember? She just can't be on his, either."

"Please let me come in," He almost begged to anyone that would give him permission. "You don't know what happened. I wasn't aiming at..." He trailed off, his grip loosening hopelessly as his eyes fell to the floor. "Please." Aberdeen groaned at Vale's excuse, the fighter tapping their foot impatiently at the man. "Yeah, you know DAMN well I know that." They snapped at the man. "And every time one of your 'accidents' happen, someone almost dies! First with the trees falling on the first date, then nearly stabbing me in the chest, and now crushing Alraada with a fucking fountain. It didn't matter who you were aiming for, you asshole! You lost your control again! Like you have throughout this entire experiment!!" They were shouting at this point. They realized they'd begun to make a scene and lowered their voice to a low growl. "How many people do you have to almost kill until you finally take responsibility for your fucking 'accidents?' Because if this is any indication of your temper, whats to come when you fucking snap?" Aberdeen looked to Alraada, realizing they were probably talking too much. "Do you want to let him in, or should he stay by the door? Your call."
"You played your part perfectly~" He chimed to his partner as he walked towards his bed. "All that mattered is that the two of us were there, checking up on them. While Galystris may not buy into it so easily, Piami's innocence and gullibility are sure to be a useful tool while she's...... a-around.." He stuttered, the thought of killing that girl he'd just patted on the head making him sick to his stomach. "Now all we have to do is go to the hospital, make a deal, and everything will be set even further in motion. And that can wait until tomorrow~"

Piami's eyes widen. Vale was going berserk near outside the con? Piami was in deep fear until Galy was able so say was she was told. Galystris looked at the desperate Amil. "I am aware of the situation. I have spoken to Miss Tyreithillis, and she has informed me of the wrongdoings of Vale...." Her eyes met Amil's directly. "And the wrongdoings of a few others. Thank you very much for your concern, and I pray that Alraada makes it out well."

And if you ever need anything, Nace and I are right down the hall!" He chimed as he began walking back towards their hotel room. "C'mon sweetheart! Let's leave these two alone for the night!" Piami felt very confused. She's not too sure who is in the right of the situation. She looked up at Galystris. "Galy? Should we check up on Alraada to see if she is okay??"

"Aberdeen, stop...." She spoke. Her fists clenched and she stared down at her lap. "He's gonna get mad, and..." She mumbled. She trailed off at the end of her sentence most likely out of fear. "I-I'm sorry, I've said too much." She shook her head, not able to look vale or Aberdeen in the eye. "I shouldn't have gotten involved anyways...I see now that things could have gone differently..." Burried her fave in her free hand and let out a sigh. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for getting involved. I'm sorry for doing what I did. Even though I messed everything up...please,can you both calm down...it might be too much to ask, but I don't want there to be any fighting because of me, ok?" Her hoarse voice carried sincerity that isn't often seen in her tone. She felt horrible. ---- Galystris shook her head. "She has many friends there." She spoke softly. "I do not believe you need to see her in the state she is in right now. It would simply worry you further...and..." Galystris laid a hand on Piami's shoulder. "I do not want you around Vale either. He is dangerous. Everyone else involved in the fight is too. I just want to make sure you're alright. So I recommend you try not to cross paths with Vale, Amil, or Nace."

Her hoarse voice carried sincerity that isn't often seen in her tone. She felt horrible. "Alraada...." Maicy has spoken "Do not blame yourself over this." Should I be able to say it?"The fact that Aberdeen and even Vale is saying it's not your fault should tell you.... If people say it's not your fault, then it isn't...." Maicy gave a bit of a light smile before feeling teary eyed. "That's what you told me back at the beach date when I was blaming myself.... right?" Her voice became very wavery.
Piami blushed. Someone like Galy is worried about her well being. She nodded. "You're right. I'll be sure to not go near them." She wispered Piami looked at the time. "So, what shall we do for tonight?"

"Alraada, if you don't want him in the room, I'll keep him out." They bluffed, knowing full well that there was little they could do to stop Vale should he try and use his powers on Aberdeen. But there was no way they were letting that man hurt Alraada again. "Just say the word, and I'll make sure he doesn't step foot in here." They swallowed their pride and turned back to face the man they still weren't too keen on talking to. "Alti. Can we agree to put aside our differences for one minute in case Vale comes in here with a less than stellar attitude?" They spoke sternly, hoping that the passing time along with Alraada's current state of being would be enough for the two to work together for the time being. "I may be tough, but fighting against someone with telekinesis won't be easy. Can I rely on you? For Alraada's sake?" Slowly, he let go of his partner's hand, a bit mixed about entering another violent situation with Highlighter #1 right in front of his soulmate, but he proceeded anyway. Gotta keep the kid safe, I guess, he supposed to himself with a light smirk. He crossed his arms as he stepped forward, his eyes focused on the door.

"Alright," he mumbled softly with a nod, taking a few steps until he was standing right beside Aberdeen. "Just make sure he doesn't get hurt, too...." he paused, taking a second to look for a save. "I worked too damn hard to get him looking presentable. I don't need Vale ruining another one of my pieces~" he chuckled. The luchador's voice echoed loudly down the hospital's hallway, Cyrus frowning and sighing as the other contestants immediately jumped on the offensive, including his partner. He was so damn tired of the conflict today. How was this supposed to help anything? Once Alti's hand had slipped out of his, he reluctantly clenched his hand tightly shut, frowning and looking over at the two now standing guard. Aberdeen wasn't wrong as they barked at Vale. Every single bout of fighting and violence all so far led back to the watermelon bastard. But quite frankly, he didn't care who's fault it was-- "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for getting involved. I'm sorry for doing what I did. Even though I messed everything up...please,can you both calm down...it might be too much to ask, but I don't want there to be any fighting because of me, ok?" Her hoarse voice carried sincerity that isn't often seen in her tone. But there was clearly one person who wasn't at fault. "Oh fuck off with that type of thinking, Lettuce," he immediately blurted out in response, her words aggravating him. "You're doped up and probably on 20 pounds of pain killers. I don't care who started the stupid fucking fight, or who's fault it was, or why it even happened, but one thing I know for certain is that it sure as hell wasn't your fault. You're the one that got the ass end of the deal. You were the victim of a bunch of fucking violent manchildren acting like idiots," he snapped, his nerves prickling at her self-blame. "If it wasn't you, it'd be some other congoer," he grumbled, crossing his arms. "But that aside, it's ultimately Alraada's choice whether she wants Vale in the room or not, even if she is pumped full of opiates," he added, shooting Aberdeen and Alti a quick look.

"How many people do you have to almost kill until you finally take responsibility for your fucking 'accidents?' Because if this is any indication of your temper, whats to come when you fucking snap?" Aberdeen looked to Alraada, realizing they were probably talking too much. "Do you want to let him in, or should he stay by the door? Your call." "Well, I'm sorry that people trying to murder me and then blasting off my arm made me retaliate," Vale snapped back, letting go of the door, "Amil and Nace started this, for once it wasn't fucking me and everyone's acting like I was just defending myself for the hell of it! And for your information, I am in complete! control!" The door slammed shut so hard behind him he jumped. He seemed to visibly deflate at her words, as he had clearly just proved her point. The way her voice sounded...the look of fear in her eyes... ~"That child is going to kill someone! You're not as terrified as me..."~ It was all too familiar to him at this point. "I'm not going to...I would..." He had been about to say 'I would never', but that no longer applied. Everything was ruined. Why had he come to the hospital again? To make sure she was alright? She wasn't. And she wouldn't be anytime soon. Because of him. The wrestler's single hand tightened into a fist. He should be in that hospital bed, not her. He was the one who was supposed to get hit. Amil... a dead man walking.The scientist's voice snapped his out of his glaring match with the floor, a bit surprised that he seemed to be alright with it. But he wasn't about to let the opportunity slide. He rushed over to the bed and sat down in the chair opposite of Aberdeen. "I just want to see if you're alright, and then I'll go," He promised. This close up, he could see all the wounds that had been inflicted. The damage done to her already damaged body. The gash on her face struck him more than anything. "That's going to scar," He said in horror, more to himself than anyone else. He reached out slowly, as though he were going to touch it--- but her bed suddenly moved a good foot out of his reach.
His hand closed around air and he stared at where her face had been just a moment ago. The bed. Fucking. Moved. She was injured, tied up to who knows how many life saving machines, and his stupid fucking mind just pushed her away like one of the god damn beds on the plane. Vale got up so fast he knocked over the chair, surely startling the others in the room. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." His voice shook. "I'll go now, I'm sorry." He started for the door.

Aberdeen jumped at the door slamming, nearly sprinting over and clocking Vale in the head before Alraada's words seemingly hit him. His pathetic excuses only proved to aggravate the already enraged Aberdeen even further. The fighter watched the green deadpool run over to the bedside, their fists immediately clenching as they prepared for the worst. And then Vale proved how 'in control' he was once more by pushing the bed a foot away, prompting Aberdeen to flinch once more as the man stood up and knocked his chair over. "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!?" They finally screamed at the now apologizing wrestler. "GET THE HELL OUT BEFORE YOU HURT HER AGAIN!!!" Aberdeen was shaking at this point, their aura having been glossed over in a jet black.

Alraada looked to maicy, tears threatening to leave her eyes. She smiled, pushing them back, remembering talking to maicy. "Yeah...saying that was pretty stupid...sorry." She said with a laugh, before hearing her other friend's talking. His harsh yet reassuring words sent her over the edge. She was crying, sure, but it was of happiness. "Thank you! I'm sorry for my drug induced stupidity..." She spoke, her voice wavering. She gave a thumbs up. "Remind me to never get high again." She joked. It seemed her awareness of the behavior-altering pain killers made her much less open with her self loathing. She looked over to Vale afterwards, and her eyes widened immediately widened. The bed moved backwards, and she let out a small cry. She only panicked more when she saw her IV had come unplugged from the wall and fallen over due to the pull. "Oh god, shit, dammit, could someone get that back in the wall!?" She nearly yelled. She looked back over at Vale and waved her free hand. "No, no you don't have to leave, you're fine! You're ok!"
