11th Flight: [Voice]

[skyborne_mage]

This is madness.

Suzu, Klarth, did you guys get hit with this one?  Heck, just extend that to everyone I know and haven't talked to yet.

Please let the answer be no you guys.  This one's nuts.

[She clicks in, and if Arche was paying attention, her tone would immediately indicate srs bsns in the workings.]

Klarth and I have not been subjected to any physical or blatant mental alterations. Klarth has, however, been attacked by an affected villager. We are currently at the clinic; his wounds are not life-threatening, so he should recover shortly. [She's not sure how long, just that he will - but old people ARE known for their resilience. So she's counting on that. :|b]

How are you?

[Paying attention? Suzu, she's hanging on your every word.]

Klarth got... hell. What'd they do to him? And do we know who it was, or if they're still out there?

He received light bruises, and lost a small amount of blood from being bitten. A vampire got to him, and from what I have gathered throughout the journals, others have fallen victim to the same individual as well. His name is Angelus, and he is behaving this way because of the experiment. Judging by the recent entries, however, someone from his world already has him successfully neutralized, hence the threat should now be considerably lessened.

Good. Angelus, huh... I'll remember that name. If he gets loose, we might have a fight on our hands.

If my hypothesis is correct, this should be over once the current experiment ends. Everything should quieten down by the end of the week, but I agree that caution should be exerted until then. [What'll follow will be damage control... Let's hope that it won't be too bad.]

[skyborne-mage.livejournal.com]

Right. Just like any other experiment, we dig in our heels and ride it out, then fix up what and who got wrecked while it was going on.

[sweet-shuriken.livejournal.com]

[She lowers her head.] That would be the case.

[looks up again] If anything notable happens, I will let you know. I shall remain with Klarth until he recovers sufficiently to look after of himself. Please take care as well, Arche.

Righto.

Oh, by the way, your ancestor got turned into Volt, if you haven't seen.

[/time paradoxes]

...

I have. [Sheena was obviously upset by it, though, so she didn't pursue it any further - she already screwed up once when she asked about Volt's powers.]

[filtered]

[skyborne-mage.livejournal.com]

I wonder why she hates a summon spirit so much... maybe she's scared of thunder? I mean, Volt's lightning, so... [She frowns, though, thinking, because that sounds possible, but not right.]

[filtered]

[sweet-shuriken.livejournal.com]

She has her reasons, and I believe them likely to be very personal. If she wishes to let anyone know, then the choice is hers. It is not my place to ask. [She's curious too, but this is basic respect to your elders.]

[filtered]

[skyborne-mage.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, I didn't ask either, but... I mean I can't help but be a little curious, y'know? I'm not gonna go prying at her or anything though.

[filtered]

[sweet-shuriken.livejournal.com]

I... suppose. [She understood that look when Sheena said "you really don't know, huh?"... Cless and Chester would adopt a similar look if one were to speak of what happened at Toltus.]

...This should pass soon. [/lame attempt at subject change - at least she tried? >_>;]

[filtered]

[skyborne-mage.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we've got like three days or so left, I think. [She'll go along with it anyway, not wanting to talk about something so serious behind Sheena's back.] Lousy Malnosso.

[filtered]

[sweet-shuriken.livejournal.com]

That is correct. [numbly nods. Everyone will be... alright.]

... [/conversation fail goes here]

[filtered]

[skyborne-mage.livejournal.com]

... I don't think I have to say this, but just in case... keep a watch on Klarth. Not just for people outside, but... protect him from himself, y'know?

[filtered]

[sweet-shuriken.livejournal.com]

[The hard determination returns to her eyes, and she firmly nods.]

I understand. I will make sure that he recovers properly, and... attempt to raise his awareness towards his basic needs.

That's the way, Suzu. Good luck!
