[7:06 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Making her way back into the main building, Ryunoske headed passed the dining hall. She had no intention in going in, but the random group of people in there caught her attention. One of them in particular stood out. The weird limb creature with wings. "What in the.."

Her voice trailed off before her eyes fell onto a familiar form. Ryu paused, assessing Roque's appearance before going up to her. "Woah, babe? When did you get back here? I heard you guys were let go, but I didn't think you'd be here," she said with surprise. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:18 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Oh, Ryu! Lovely to s- hear from you again." Roque said and waved in her vague direction. She turned her head back to look at her, just to show off her new lack of eyes. "Whatcha think? I got the ol' Petrai-special down there." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:48 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"The old hag did all of this to you? She gave you one hell of a makeover," Ryunoske hummed. "Probably couldn't stand to see you in all of your beauty, my love. Don't worry, you have all your charm despite not being able to see it now," she reassured Roque.

"How are you feeling otherwise? Those fuckers took your powers, didn't they?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:12 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Yep, tied me up to a table crucifix style and took my eyes right out, and cut off all my lovely hair with a knife. Guessing the same knife? Dunno, wasn't paying much attention to her, honestly." Roque chuckled. She kicked her foot around before hitting one of the other chairs, pushing it out for Ryu. "Sit, sit. We have so much to catch up with, dear."

"And I'm hungry, hence all the food. Those bitches could hardly spare a crumb for me. Just awful fish soup. They didn't even appreciate my fish sensitivity- really upset my stomach to have to eat that. Can you imagine? Me, chained up in a dungeon? Ha, yeah, it couldn't last."

"And I'm angry, though I just beat Petrai at her own game, so I feel a bit satisfied. She really thought she could kill me. Ha. She's just an old hag, like you said."

"And yes.. They took my powers, both of them I believe. I was present for my lovely sound powers getting taken, but I have only heard that my blood scythe was destroyed. I am inclined to believe them at this point, I have felt it around."

"Alsooooooo, could I borrow some of your clothes? I know they may not fit me right, but I am so sick of this outfit they gave me. And I need a shower."

".. Buuuuut, oh man, I'm just so blind.. I don't know if I could possibly handle a shower on my own. I'm just so helpless. I need a big strong woman to help me out here. If only there was someone here who fit that description.." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:29 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu didn't sit, but she moved it slightly to make it sound like she did. She listened to Roque with small hums and 'wows', just giving her the attention the woman probably all so wanted. "That's awful--the way they treated a star such as yourself, babe," Ryu mused with a frown, even if Roque couldn't see it.

"And of course you take borrow my clothes. I need to get some new ones myself. I got burnt and stabbed earlier, so my good suit top and jacket are scrap," Ryu sighed. "I'd be more than happy to help my love. I can't let some bozos do my job," she chuckled. "Once you're finished up here, we can go up, okay?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:32 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"That sounds great. I appreciate it. I think everyone down there hated me, for whatever reason. Didn't conversate much." Roque hummed. She picked up the sandwich she was eating and took a few more bites. "Did you hear about what I did before I got tossed out? I got Petrai in my blood dimension. It was pretty amazing while it lasted." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:39 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu chuckled some more as she leaned her hand down on the table. "That was there lost, babe. I wish I could of talked to you more before you suddenly left. I was really hurt that you didn't even come tell me goodbye," she hummed. "Blood dimension? No, I didn't hear anything about that. Is that why the old hag took out her frustration on ya?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:43 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Oh, yes, I requested that they send you a few words of me.. But I'm guessing they didn't." Roque said. "I think that's part of the reason. And I went around and told everyone she had wings before she was oh so ready to flaunt them. I think seeing the horrors down there really scarred her, hah. She was soooooo mad. I don't regret it at all, I just wish the last thing I had seen wasn't her face. Urgh. I can't imagine many things uglier."

"But I have a plan for once I get my powers back, hehe. Mostly for getting some eyes back, partially for revenge." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:47 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"I didn't hear a lick of anything from anyone. It was like you just suddenly disapeared," Ryu shrugged. "Having that hag's old face as the last piece of memory is awful. Let's get you healed up some or something so you can make new memories instead," she smiled warily. "Though, if what's been going around is true, I don't know if anyone here is willing to heal your eyes, my love. We may need to take someone else's to give you something temporary." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:49 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"You think I'd rely on some commoner to give me eyes? Let Yeonaixho take another shot at healing me? No. You underestimate my plan, how much I have accounted for this.." Roque grinned and tapped her fingers under her eye sockets. "How do you think I'd look with green eyes, hmm? Quite different from my shocking red, I know." @ajjjjjjjj

[8:56 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske hummed once more, her smile fading a bit. She gently cupped Roque's cheek and pulled her chin upward. "I miss seeing your eyes, babe. No matter who replaced them, it would feel temporary and disorient. I'd prefer if we just healed yours and you have those green ones temporarily." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[9:02 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque actually shut up for a moment as Ryu cupped her cheek. She leaned in to it, relaxing her face even further.

".. I'm afraid I simply can't see that happening, Ryu. Last I heard, Yeonaixho had my eyes. I doubt he just kept them around. Maybe he threw them out, or ate them, or tried to put them in his own face or whatever.. I don't know who else would be able to get me back my eyes. My blood powers might assist me, over time. I can regrow my own limbs and heal my own body over the course of a few months with my powers. But I never messed with my eyes... Too risky. Guess I don't have much choice, now do I?" @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:14 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu noticed how Roque easily relaxed into her touch, making note as her fingers gently brushed her cheekbones. "Well, I'll do what I can to make sure we get them back. I miss seeing you looking at me," she smiled with a soft laugh before pulling away.

"I'll wait till you're done with everything. Do you need help walking or eating?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[9:18 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque had leaned forward until Ryu pulled away too far, and she leaned back in her seat.

"I'm quite fine eating on my own. I would appreciate your arm when we're walking out." Roque said. "I have to say, I'm surprised they didn't take my tongue instead of my eyes. Would have been a lot more impactful, and they were always trying to get me to shut up." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:34 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"They probably had their reasons. If they took your tongue, I suppose they would lose the ability to hear you scream. If they planned to torture you guys down there, I could understand," Ryu nodded, like that was the most mundane thing ever. "Just let me know when you're ready to go, babe." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[9:37 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Oh, I assure you, people can still scream without their tongue." Another normal thing to say, totally. Roque quickly finished up the rest of her food, eating much faster than she had been before Ryu arrived. Once those plates were finished off, she pushed herself up and reached her hand out toward where Ryu's pushed out seat was. "Shall we?" @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:46 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu didn't mind waiting for Roque to finish. She was taking the spare time to access who else had finally been let go. That weird bug creature, Hannah, Kal, a tree, and who she assumed was Peregrine were all out. Hm. Was that all who were down there?

Hearing Roque once again, she took Roque's arm. "Of course. Let's get going," she nodded and headed on over to ⁠ryu-glass-val-kass @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[6:06 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque gripped on to Ryu's arm as they walked. Hard. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:25 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

(Just using this thread again lol)

Ryu came back to the same table as she found Roque, scooting a chair out and settling the other woman into it with ease. "Alright. Be good and wait here. I won't be too long.." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[5:17 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Mm. Thank you, dear. Could I get a kiss to tide me over?" @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[6:43 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske chuckled faintly. "Of course, babe," she said and pressed a kiss to Roque's lips. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[6:55 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Thank you." Roque said after she kissed her back. "Don't keep me waiting too long, mmkay?" @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:07 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

She pulled away after a moment and nodded. "I'll try not to," Ryu replied. "I'll be going now. Try not to disappear on me again, babe," she joked as she started to walk off. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:08 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

".. I'll try.." Roque mumbled and leaned back against her seat. She really didn't have much choice on if she was 'disappeared' again at this point. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania
