"Oh! Uh.. We have been on many rides and had fun." Maicy felt a little nervous when speaking to Cyrus, given how much she has shown how much of an emotional train-wreck she was during the shit that happened on the beach date. Aberdeen's eyes widened as they heard the snarky scientist speak up behind them, meaning that his scantily clad soulmate couldn't be far behind. Their aura immediately faded from their jovial yellow to a crimson red as the turned to face Cyrus, but not showing it on their face. They raised an eyebrow at the man and chuckled slightly. "Oh, hey." They spoke, flatly as their eyes shot to Alti before looking back at Cyrus.
Cyrus felt a cold chill prick up his spine as the three people's faces directed towards him, the two main conflicting parties not just dipping their feet into the pool of conflict but diving in headfirst. Well fuck. A nervous grin cracked across his face as he looked between Alti's unconvincing and awkward grimace and the fighter's strange facial expressions and body language. And to top off this amalgamation of anxiety, Maicy was clearly nervous and uncomfortable. This is gonna be like walking on goddamn eggshells.
"Yeah, we've been having a great time!" They chimed, their eyes shutting and eyebrows raising as high as they'd go. "We've been going on tons of rides and I won this stuffed animal at one of those 'Test Your Strength' things! It's pretty great! How about you, Cyrus? How is your day going?" They made sure to emphasize that they were talking to Cyrus and not his partner. "YEAH, Cy!" he blurted a bit louder than he intended, "How WAS 'your' day?" He squeezed the other's arm, his grin growing wider to show everyone else just how goddamn unbothered he was. Despite how much the scientist wanted to call them out on their passive aggressive bullshit, I gotta keep the peace. And as a man with patience as thin as a sheet of rice paper, he could already feel himself exerting every bit of his willpower to not immediately call either of them out. Come the fuck on, Aberdeen. "That is a fantastic question." And not at all meant to piss off the other person! "We went on a couple of the bigger rides, and are now taking a break with a slower one. Well... mostly I'm taking a break." He cleared his throat, putting some more emphasis on the plural pronouns. "I won something at the riflery game, and Alti also won a plush at Test Your Strength. Although, it went to a far more noble cause than being carried around by the likes of us," he snickered a little bit and rubbed the back of his neck. They hadn't had a single conflict-free date yet, and they unfortunately were quickly on their way to keeping that spotless record. "I personally am having an excellent time." Cyrus made sure his smirk didn't waver, but he made sharp eye contact with the fighter's prosthetic face as if to say 'This is not the time or place to address yesterday.' "I recommend the Millennium Force roller coaster if you haven't ridden it yet." The queue moved forward as the next round of people were slowly loaded into the Ferris wheel carriages. |

Yup they're still furious.
Cyrus felt a cold chill prick up his spine as the three people's faces directed towards him, the two main conflicting parties not just dipping their feet into the pool of conflict but diving in headfirst.

"I recommend the Millennium Force roller coaster if you haven't ridden it yet." The queue moved forward as the next round of people were slowly loaded into the Ferris wheel carriages. They chuckled lightly as they watched Alti cling to Cyrus' arm, their passive-aggressiveness being exactly what it took to get under the man's skin. They listened to their friend meander on as they took a step forward given the line was moving, shutting their eyes and shrugging as he finished talking. "Wow you won something in a riflery game? I didn't know you were a good shot!" They chimed as they opened their eyes and kept them dead set on Cyrus', making sure they weren't to look at Alti any further. "Test-Your-Strength games are a waste of time. Any buffoon can win at those. They take no skill whatsoever. Truly unimpressive if you ask me! But hey, its the only game I'm good at." They chuckled halfheartedly before continuing "I'm glad you're having a good time! I'm having a great time as well!" They took note of the scientist's sharp gaze and raised their eyebrow at him. "Maicy and I will have to take a ride on that, y'know, once we go on a couple more. We were planning on going to the bumper cars after this! Should be fun! I'd invite you to come, but...." They finally shot a glare at Alti "Two against one would be unfair." They said with the cheeriest tone they could muster before looking back at Cyrus. |

They chuckled halfheartedly before continuing "I'm glad you're having a good time! I'm having a great time as well!" They took note of the scientist's sharp gaze and raised their eyebrow at him. Alti walked up with Cyrus, calming down a bit after the scientist acknowledged his existence, but remained on edge as he listened to Aberdeen muse on. Their little commentary on the strength-testing game brought a small chuckle out of him. Not any buffoon, he thought to himself, the image of the brutish moron from before taking off a bit of the sting from this rather tense encounter. He stood next to his partner slightly happier than he was seconds ago, visibly lost in his thoughts until a hard you're hit his ears, prompting him to switch back to the brewing conflict. "Maicy and I will have to take a ride on that, y'know, once we go on a couple more. We were planning on going to the bumper cars after this! Should be fun! I'd invite you to come, but...." They finally shot a glare at Alti "Two against one would be unfair." They said with the cheeriest tone they could muster before looking back at Cyrus. Alti coughed the comment away, his aloof act having already fizzled with a much darker expression taking its place and an obvious realization dawning upon him. They're just fucking with me...... Alright..... The man let go of his partner's arm, crossing them and cracking a smirk. If messing with him was their goal, they succeeded, for the most part. Whether or not there was any actual anger behind the act didn't really matter to him. Now wasn't the time to just "let them be". No, obviously it was just time to play along and see where that takes him. "A-ha! So you can see me, Aberdeen sweetie~!" he beamed, giggling childishly before turning his head over to his partner and holding a hand up to the opposite cheek as to suggest the next words that came out of his mouth were to be made in private. He hushed his voice down a bit so that the random strangers in the queue couldn't hear him, but the couple up front could. "Why, for a second, I would've thought they had that new head of theirs screwed on the wrong way...." |

Aberdeen over-exaggeratedly jumped backward, pretending to be surprised by the black haired man's presence. "OH! Alti!" They chimed. "I didn't see you there! I'm soooooo sorry about that!" They rolled their eyes as they continued their over-the-top tone. "See, its kinda hard to see for me right now! I gotta get used to this NEW head given my old one got.....washed up." They furrowed their brow. They didn't really care who heard their little outburst, given it'd just sound like nonsense to any normal pedestrian. "I sure hope i didn't upset you!" They spoke, a hint of malice in their voice. "I wouldn't want you to... lose your head..over me not seeing you! Maybe if you are upset, you can... blow off some steam." They were no longer trying to keep their face from showing how angry they were. "But maybe I'm getting... ahead...of myself. I'm sure I didn't upset you by 'accidentally' ignoring you. You aren't THAT petty, right? Only an attention whore would get angry about that. And you can tell you aren't just by looking at the way you dress." They shrugged. |

He was pouting again. "Hey!!" she called from across the room. She drove over to him, though many obsticles, and obnoxious children. She simple sighed in annoyence. "God damn, I would not be surprised if some of the people in this experiment raised them." she joked. She was trying to brigghten the mood a bit. "so...uh...." she muttered "If you want to get out, i think we can ask..." Vale seized up as Alraada came towards him, tensing and avoiding looking her in the eye as he pretended to be interested in something outside of the ride. His car had stopped moving, but was shaking slightly. "I'm fine, I'm fine!" He cried tersely, pulling his hands from the wheel and into his lap. He still wasn't looking at her, and his car was slowly rotating away despite the fact that his foot wasn't even on the pedal. "You caught me by surprise is all. Just--good job." The words leaked out of his mouth with venom in every syllable. It was clear he was furious that he had been hit. He hunched his shoulders a bit, his car now facing the opposite direction. "There's what, two more minutes left? L-Let's n-not m-make a s-scene." His words came out slightly jumbled because his car was vibrating so much. He scrunched up his eye as he tried to block out the sounds of screaming children around him.
"Don't worry about it. If I wasn't rolling in cash, I'd probably demand more than that, but I got all this courtesy of that fine establishment." He chuckled, gesturing towards the girl being dragged out of the burger stand. Nace noticed the scar, raising his eyebrow as he munched on a few more fries from his share. He took a sip of his coke, remembering the tattoo he still hadn't asked about. He wouldn't be surprised if both of these things were in relation to the demon shit. The one he didn't know the name of. He bit the side of his cheek, leaning forward on his elbows. No matter how much fun this whole thing was, he was running out of time. As if on cue, he cursed loudly, dropping his arms and pulling the hand with the ring on it close to his face. "Fucking hell," He muttered, blood dripping from where the ring had constricted on his finger. He shook it harshly, drips of blood spraying onto the ground. "Nasty thing." He quickly got up in search of a napkin, snatching one off of a couples plate and leaving some blood behind. They both recoiled in disgust, but said nothing. Smart. Nace returned to the table, wrapping his finger with the napkin and pretending like that hadn't just happened. "It's your turn to pick." He said, his expression warm but his voice cold. |

They furrowed their brow. They didn't really care who heard their little outburst, given it'd just sound like nonsense to any normal pedestrian. "I sure hope i didn't upset you!"

They were no longer trying to keep their face from showing how angry they were. "But maybe I'm getting...ahead...of myself. I'm sure I didn't upset you by 'accidentally' ignoring you. You aren't THAT petty, right? Only an attention whore would get angry about that. And you can tell you aren't just by looking at the way you dress." They shrugged. The moment Alti began to play along was the moment Cyrus stopped, the man's paper thin patience dissolving just a few sentences of instigation later. This ball of passive aggression was rolling down the hill fast, Aberdeen's new head easily conveying how much rage that appeared to be pent up. "Are we at the beach again? Beach date part deux? Because I'm getting a whiff of pure sodium chloride in the air right now," he rolled his eyes, stepping between the two of them. "Hey, Salty the Hedgehog. I get that you're still a little bit briny from yesterday, but really? Are you really doing this right now? Because I'm not doing this right now," he sneered, voice laced with pointed irritation. The fight on the plane. The fight at the ballroom. The fights in the cafe and gym. The fight at the beach. One calm date. One. That's all I'm fuckin' asking for.
The queue moved forward, Alti and Cyrus now lined up to enter the next carriage, the scientist rubbing his temples in frustration. While he didn't expect Aberdeen's jabs to garner the reaction from Alti that they were looking for, this was escalating quickly and the scientist wanted nothing more than to nip it in the bud. Normally, stupid banter was what he lived for but with this lot, verbal disputes always seemed to turn physical. The constant looming threat of violence had thoroughly sucked the fun out of arguing. Unfortunately, he was keenly aware he wasn't the best of mediators. Not even close. Probably more in the bottom 10% of the world's population when it comes to mediating. "Look. I get it. What Alti did was stupid. Really, really fucking stupid but goddamn, it was an accident and we're both sorry it happened." The smirk on his face had now pulled into more of a scowl, the scientist's smarmy facade dropping completely. "If you reaaally want to duke it out, we can pick it up this high school-level conversation later tonight because quite frankly," Cyrus's eyes were blazing with frustration. " I'd like to have one bullshit-free date in this goddamn experiment. And certainly Maicy would like that as well, right Maicy?" The next ferris wheel carriage began its descent, Cyrus looking towards it and motioning for Alti to board with him. |

Piami had a big smile on her face
"I'd love to!"
And so, Piami followed Iksel to the water park.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh. Fucking.. Shit... The hidden discourse between Cyrus, Alti, and Aberdeen is too real. I fucked up. Coming over here was a mistake...
"I....."
Maicy could be able to finish her sentence before Cyrus an Alti took off on the ride. She turned to Aberdeen, feeling pretty shaken up.
"I.... I'm sorry. I know we would come across these two...... I.. I'm a fucking moron..."
Maicy is more angry with herself than anything. She felt really bad this happened.

"OH! Alti!" They chimed. "I didn't see you there! I'm soooooo sorry about that!" They rolled their eyes as they continued their over-the-top tone. "See, its kinda hard to see for me right now! I gotta get used to this NEW head given my old one got.....washed up." They furrowed their brow.

You aren't THAT petty, right? Only an attention whore would get angry about that. And you can tell you aren't just by looking at the way you dress." They shrugged.
Alti rolled his eyes at their response, his smirk widening at the pure childishness of his being acknowledged. The briny deluge of head jokes only served to impress him less and less as he listened to the fighter go on, raising a second question to all of this nonsense: Why did I even feel bad in the first place? He shook his head with a low chuckle. Why? Why did he even care? He argued that perhaps the guilt stemmed from the concept that losing the fighter's trust means losing his only mediator but, looking at his partner, he didn't exactly need one anymore. Thinking back to his previous encounters --all of which were few and far between-- he couldn't ever recall a time when he legitimately cared for the fighter, or well, anyone other than Cyrus, and even that tended to fluctuate with his mood. His only other reasons for even bothering to even speak to Aberdeen were completely carnal in nature, which obviously judging by the pink streams of steam erupting from their neck any time the topic of sex was even mentioned, he wasn't getting anything from them anytime soon. Plus, again, he had Cyrus. And did he really have to apologize? It was an accident, after all. So, what now? It was apparent he didn't care for Aberdeen, and now with how sour this conversation was going, even more apparent that Aberdeen couldn't give two shits about him either. He simply cackled. "WOOOOOOOW Aberdeen! I can't beliiiiiiiieve this! All the flavors in the goddamn world and you decide to be salty! And you're mistaken!" he flipped his hair, "You're looking at the biggest attention whore in the entiiiiiire universe! Probably even the king! From now, I only expect to be addressed that way." he snickered. "I love being called what I am! I wear the title proudly, don't you think!?" His bellowing was loud enough for the pedestrians in the background to hear, the people turning around in annoyance at the man's little act. "Look. I get it. What Alti did was stupid. Really, really fucking stupid but goddamn, it was an accident and we're both sorry it happened." The smirk on his face had now pulled into more of a scowl, the scientist's smarmy facade dropping completely. "If you reaaally want to duke it out, we can pick up this high school-level conversation later tonight because quite frankly," Cyrus's eyes were blazing with frustration. " I'd like to have one bullshit-free date in this goddamn experiment. And certainly Maicy would like that as well, right Maicy?" The next ferris wheel carriage began its descent, Cyrus looking towards it and motioning for Alti to board with him. Alti calmed his breathing down, the smile still lingering on his face as the carriage descended. "Yeah! Toooootally sorry! It was all an accident, honey~! But hey, look at the bright side: now you don't have to go out in public with that sorry thing anymore!" he chortled in reference to the ruined head. "This one looks waaaay better, if you ask me." This probably would've been a great time to end the conversation, but something within Alti just refused to quit reaching for ways to irritate the little shortie. It was only fair, right? They started it, after all. "I don't even know even know why ya' got all mad anyway!" he lied, holding his hands behind his head. "Secret had to come out one day, and with how well you were keeping it from us, I technically did you a favor!" He chuckled again. "You didn't even have anything to worry about! Look!" he gestured over to Maicy, "Is she running for the hills? Uh-uh. And there are plenty of us that didn't freak out immediately after finding out. I mean, who are we to judge, right?" Alti didn't seem to realize he was keeping the operator waiting, and when he did he took a slow step forward. "Only real 'threat' you really could worry about is pfft, what? Nace!? OH, PLEASE, you could toootally take him! You're at least 20 times stronger!!" He stopped right in front of the carriage, turning around to face the fighter, revealing an ever-so-malicious smirk etched across his face as the events from a few nights ago came flooding in. " Or, should I say, 25....?" |

" I'd like to have one bullshit-free date in this goddamn experiment. And certainly Maicy would like that as well, right Maicy?" The next ferris wheel carriage began its descent, Cyrus looking towards it and motioning for Alti to board with him. Aberdeen listened to Cyrus' tirade, their expression starting to soften as they realized how childish they were being. Perhaps he was right. They turned to look at Maicy, who seemed utterly distraught and the fighter's heart sank. They were about ready to apologize to the scientist when Alti spoke up, shattering any chance of the fighter ever forgiving him. Aberdeen brushed most of what Alti was saying off, most of which being minor insults that meant nothing to the fighter. The sighed with boredom as they waited for him to finish his monologue, the mention of Nace giving the fighter a bit of a chill. "You're righ-" They stopped as Alti uttered his last sentence, their aura erupting into black in the blink of an eye. Their fists began to shake as they listened to Maicy speak up."Don't be sorry." They spoke in a raspy tone. "We're done here." They pulled the soda can out of the back pack and tossed it a couple times, making sure Cyrus was inside the cart before they acted on their rage. Aberdeen chucked the soda can as hard as they could at the window next to Alti, the glass cracking and the can exploding in an array of orange liquid and suds. They turned away from the Ferris Wheel and began walking off, any 'friendship' they had felt for Alti completely going up in smoke. "Lets go somewhere else. Wouldn't wanna ruin Viktor and Cyrus' day."
Amil shrugged as he put the bill back into his pocket, grinning at his soulmate. "Rolling in cash, huh? Well aren't I a lucky one~" He chuckled as he took a sip of his drink. He nearly choked however at Nace's sudden outburst, coughing and hacking as the liquid went down the wrong pipe due to getting startled so badly. "Bloody hell!" The muttered between coughs as they watched Nace grab some napkins for his bloodied finger. The man spoke to him about what ride to go on next as if his ring hadn't just attacked him out of nowhere. Amil shook his head at Nace. "No no no, we aren't glossing over that shit!" He spat. "What the fuck was that? What's wrong with that ring?" He raised an eyebrow at his partner |

"Don't be sorry." They spoke in a raspy tone. "We're done here." They pulled the soda can out of the back pack and tossed it a couple times, making sure Cyrus was inside the cart before they acted on their rage. Aberdeen chucked the soda can as hard as they could at the window next to Alti, the glass cracking and the can exploding in an array of orange liquid and suds. They turned away from the Ferris Wheel and began walking off, any 'friendship' they had felt for Alti completely going up in smoke. "Lets go somewhere else. Wouldn't wanna ruin Viktor and Cyrus' day." As Aberdeen walk away from the Ferris Wheel, so did Maicy but not before she looked back to see the cart with a bit of a sad look. She walked forward to follow Aberdeen and she heard a kid cheering. "Mommy! Mommy! Is that a firework?!"
"It's less dangerous to be a firework sweetie."
"Looks like soda... It's a soda work!!"
Overhearing that, Maicy wished what the kid said was the case. Both walked and walked until the go close to the bumper cars. All the awhile, she sees Piami and Iksel heading to the water park. Going to the water park is something Maicy cannot do, given what happened on the beach date with Aberdeen. Piami glanced at Maicy and waves to her. Even though she was caught be surprise, that made Maicy feel a little better. There are still innocent souls in this experiment. Maicy, while having a bit of a bittersweet smile, softly waves back to Piami. Both girls smiled at each other before heading separate ways. Despite that, however, Maicy is still mad at herself for letting what happened earlier happened. After that happened, Aberdeen and Maicy made it to the bumper cars. There was a line for people to get in an have fun. Maicy spoke up. "H-Hey, are you doing okay?" Maicy sounds a little nervous, given how unsure she was on rather or not she made the right choice to ask. |

"We're done here." They pulled the soda can out of the back pack and tossed it a couple times, making sure Cyrus was inside the cart before they acted on their rage. Aberdeen chucked the soda can as hard as they could at the window next to Alti, the glass cracking and the can exploding in an array of orange liquid and suds. They turned away from the Ferris Wheel and began walking off, any 'friendship' they had felt for Alti completely going up in smoke. "Lets go somewhere else. Wouldn't wanna ruin Viktor and Cyrus' day." Alti whipped his head back around to face the carriage, his eyes quickly following the can as it made impact with the glass. He jumped a bit once shattered glass shards flew through the air, his arms registering their response to block his face a fraction of a second too late once the can exploded. The broken can fell to the ground with a sharp clink as the orange soda dribbled off of Alti's face and shoulders, clinging his wet, matted bangs to his skin and drenching his bandana. For a few moments, there was silence as Alti stood in front of the carriage frozen in place, mouth left slightly open with a look of almost-horror on his face. Fists clenched, he began to tremble in a similar rage, his face twisting into a scowl once more but this time with an audible snarl growling from behind his bared teeth. This reaction seemed almost automatic as well, but this was the only one he never cared to question. After all, he did take great pride in his looks, and for the fighter to tarnish it was simply unforgivable. And to use that name to finish their blow? Just despicable! " NOW, WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM, YOU PIECE OF SHIT!?" he shrieked, parroting the fighter's --no, the killer's-- earlier tirade at the beach with perfect precision, slamming his fist into the carriage's side before stomping toward the couple as they retreated, causing the people who lined up behind him --as well as the mother-son duo who dared to acknowledge this damning moment-- to scatter in fear, his enraged, wiry frame disappearing amongst all the chaos. " GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON WHY I SHOULDN'T SWAT OFF THAT HEAD OFF THAT FUCKING NECK OF YOURS AND SLAM IT TO THE GROUND..." he snarled, already gearing himself to destroy..... But then the silence came back again, and the instinct to harm settled down. The small crowd cleared the premises, with Alti standing alone in the center of the area still dripping with orange and still visibly shaking. The couple was nearing the line at the bumper cars, and he didn't follow them. He had a reason not to. Frustrated, Alti buried his head in his hands and dragged them down and off his face, his gloves now earning a bit of the sticky action his face, hair, and arms were being subject to. " Ughh, I know the reason......." he growled, staring down the other couple as they ignored his gaze for the third time today. As much as he didn't want to let this "spat" end with Aberdeen getting the last laugh, he knew that escalating this scene even further --and by that, he meant maiming them-- would only serve to hurt him in the long run. He slowly looked over his shoulder to his soulmate, his scowl easing into a grimace. Oh, great. Ruined outfit, hair messed up, and enraged. Sounds familiar. He must have looked so foolish to his partner right now! He wouldn't have been surprised if this nonsense angered the other. Would he even talk to him after this mess? It was basically "First Date Fail" part two, and this time it was with a "friend" of Cyrus'. Well, at leas that's what it looked like to him. Whether or not the scientist was actually mad at him didn't seem to matter; he had convinced himself that only the former was true. Alti sighed. He'd have to make this right somehow, the only way he saw fit was to remove himself from the situation for the time being and figure things out later. Still frustrated, Alti pulled at his hair and stamped his feet on the ground. "I KNOW THE REASON!!!" he repeated, a portal opening to his side in response. He swiftly walked through it, the rift closing right after him. He'd be sure to make it up to his partner for his absence, but for now he needed to blow off some steam, and of course, clean up. "What a fucking mess...." |

Amil shrugged as he put the bill back into his pocket, grinning at his soulmate. "Rolling in cash, huh? Well aren't I a lucky one~" He chuckled as he took a sip of his drink. He nearly choked however at Nace's sudden outburst, coughing and hacking as the liquid went down the wrong pipe due to getting startled so badly. "Bloody hell!" The muttered between coughs as they watched Nace grab some napkins for his bloodied finger. The man spoke to him about what ride to go on next as if his ring hadn't just attacked him out of nowhere. Amil shook his head at Nace. "No no no, we aren't glossing over that shit!" He spat. "What the fuck was that? What's wrong with that ring?" He raised an eyebrow at his partner Nace frowned, unhappy that Amil had chosen the harder route in this conversation. He was hoping his partner would let it go, considering all the secrets they surely had themselves. "It's nothing," He grumbled, clearly not going to give anymore information on it. "It's an old ring, alright. It has some sharp edges I should probably take care of." He suddenly gave Amil a curious look, slipping two fingers under the napkin to hide what he was doing and gently twisting the gem in his ring. He didn't trust his partner at all, but this would surely tell him if the man staring at him truly didn't have a supernatural aura or not. He waited a few moments... Nothing changed. The ring was still buried in his finger. He could feel it wriggling beneath his skin, sending a shiver down his spine. He snapped the gem back in place, trying to keep a neutral expression as a spasm of pain went through his arm. The napkin was soaked through with blood at this point. "Why don't you look at the map of yours while I go wash up real quick." He said sharply, already starting to move towards the restrooms. |

After that happened, Aberdeen and Maicy made it to the bumper cars. There was a line for people to get in an have fun. Maicy spoke up. "H-Hey, are you doing okay?" Maicy sounds a little nervous, given how unsure she was on rather or not she made the right choice to ask. "Okay?" They asked, their aura still a pitch black. "No. No, I'm not okay. I'm a fucking idiot." They spat coldly, their arms still shaking. "I was a fucking idiot to think Viktor of all people could be trusted. I was an idiot to think Viktor could even be a FRIEND. I was an idiot to think either of those two would understand the situation Viktor put me in." They growled, each word more venomous than the last. "I was an idiot. Its been 5 fucking days. Of course they aren't friends. They're fucking strangers. Everybody here. We're all fucking strangers." Aberdeen dug their fingers into their leg, trying to calm their nerves but with the sound of screaming children and bustling crowds making it nearly impossible for the fighter to even consider thinking straight. They began walking away from the bumper car ride, no longer having the enthusiasm to go on any other rides. "I'm gonna go blow off some steam." They muttered. 'It's not gonna be any fun if I'm being pissy all day. I'll be back in like...an hour." They waved to their soulmate as they began heading in the direction of the park entrance.
Amil looked unamused as Nace continued to avoid the subject. However, he shrugged at his partner. "If you say so." He stated, flatly, his face no longer showing any real emotion. There was a moment of silence between the two as Nace allowed more and more of his blood to soak into the napkin before he stood up from the table. As his partner began walking off, Amil waved to him. "Hurry back, sweetheart~! I can't wait to continu-" They trailed off as Nace was finally out of earshot. "Fucking idiot." He muttered as he pulled the map out of his leggings. He looked around at what the park had to offer, nothing really catching his attention. He took another handful of fries as he looked around the area, pondering whether he could make a deal with anyone here. "Nah....too busy.." He thought aloud as someone caught his eye. A certain purple haired fighter was stomping their way towards the exit, to which Amil grinned deviously. "Oooooh, I might have found the perfect customer~" He chimed to himself as he watched them storm off into the distance. He glanced back down at the map and continued to contemplate his options. |

Iksel walked through the park along with Piami, spirits high. As the two passed a hot dog stand Iksel's eyes drifted over towards what was for sale, before giving a slight pout at the lack of anything that was, well, not a hot dog; and thus not meat. Remembering all of the snacks he had hoarded into his bag, the shark toothed man then went to rummaging through the sack, looking for the perfect foreign treat.
"You want a chocoshr- chocoroom...?" Iksel trailed off as he looked up to see Maicy walking along with an enraged looking Aberdeen. Iksel looked looked off into the direction they were heading from, piecing things together as his teeth began to grind together. "Come on, the water park's this way," he mouthed angrily, a hand landing on Piami's shoulder. There was no point to getting involved with this, or anybody else in this experiment's problems. He was an outside to this entire shitshow.

The fighter seemed to momentarily reconsider their actions, the scientist watching their newly expressive face wearing their change of heart. Despite Alti's continuous snark, they seemed to let it bounce right off. Did that tirade actually work? Hell, maybe I'm not quite as bad at this mediation thing as I thought, he mused, hoping that the situation would just end in his partner getting the last wisecrack in.
Oh how wrong he was. Cyrus had no idea what his soulmate had said, but something struck a nerve with Aberdeen, and his intuition on verbal disputes turning physical was absolutely spot on. With the ear-piercing crack of the glass and the explosion of orange soda, the scientist instinctively ducked, flinching as a burst of shards and liquid sprayed from the point of impact. "Escalation" wasn't even close to the accurate term for what this was. The situation had completely spiraled out of control, ending with Alti drenched, the ride damaged, and his partner storming off into the crowd, spewing threats as he tailed the other couple.
Cyrus trailed behind if only to keep his partner in his line of sight, his exasperated expression from the explosion of soda and glass not budging. "What a fucking mess," he grumbled, glancing around for a bathroom where they could hopefully clean up at least some of the corn syrup blast. Noting one to his left, he looked back towards his partner, his overall frustration turning into shock as all of a sudden, Alti portalled away. Leaving his date behind. Did he just... leave me here at this goddamn park by myself. The scientist frowned and jogged a bit to catch up to the spot where Alti had been standing, his absolute flabbergasted expression turning into full on anger. Yup, he certainly did leave him standing in the park. Alone.
How fucking humiliating.
The few witnesses to that debacle looked on at the defeated scientist with sympathy and sad looks, Cyrus glaring at the unwanted pity and snapping, "You're at fucking Wisney Place! Find something more interesting to stare at!" before pulling himself together and stalking off towards the restroom.
It wasn't until he was standing in front of the mirror at the sinks that he realized the plushie that had been tucked up under the crook of his arm. Well at least one part of this date didn't get ruined, he rolled his eyes, setting the plush down on the counter before washing his hands, grumbling and splashing water on his face. He had no idea if Alti was even coming back at this point, leaving him to spend the rest of the day as a third wheel in this nauseatingly colorful place. But in the end that brewing rage fizzled out into disappointment and defeat, the scientist frowning and washing away the bitter look on his face with another splash of water. Goddamnit.
