She blushed, and bopped Genbu on the nose. "Inappropriate! Bad turtle," she scolded him, playfully.

Xavier grinned at them, but then he turned to Raphael. "No...no, it's...nothing noteworthy...just general creepiness..." he replied.

Patriah knew he was hiding something. He had felt it when he heard that disembodied voice. And he felt it now, as he spoke and told Raphael it was nothing. A powerful shiver went up and down his spine, as he felt that darkness watching them...through Xavier.

Genbu gets serious. He wishes to know whether or not his master has 'game', and tries his best to convey this to Hamiri through head bobs and snaps.

"So..."Raphael asks quietly, "Who looked like you?"

She shook her head. "No! Bad turtle. We did not do anything! He just went to sleep," she scolded Genbu, flustered.

Xavier was startled, as he realized Raphael had heard him talking in his sleep. "...The shadow..." he revealed, reluctantly. He didn't want to lie to Raphael, though there were still some things he could not tell him. 'I OWN YOU...' Those words. They always echoed clear, in that same menacing voice...

Genbu looks flustered as well, and does a little frustrated waddle in a circle on her hand. Fine, he seems to say with a look in his eyes, if you don't wanna say how it went, then just say so!

Raphael frowns worriedly. "We're gonna take you to Hypnos once this is all done, 'Kay? Get yo checked out by a specialist..." he says, so only he could hear him.

Mair noticed that Raphael was frowning and walked over to check up on him. Raphael are you okay? Mair asked gently.

Raphael blinks at her, then smiles. "Yes, I'm fine, thank you for asking. Just having a conversation with Xavier." he says to Mair.

Raphael blinks at her, then smiles. "Yes, I'm fine, thank you for asking. Just having a conversation with Xavier." he says to Mair.

Okay, just I saw you frowning and its been a hard day for all of us. And if you are still sad about...... Holo you can talk to me about it.

Raphael tenses a little at the mention of .... Her name, then keeps on smiling. Though a little sad.

"I'm... Okay for now, thank you for the offer though, Mair." he replied quietly.

"It will be too late by then..." he whispered, low enough for only Patriah to hear. One more day...

Patriah stared from him to Raphael, ignoring Genbu's shenanigans. After all, Hamiri would never do something like that behind his back. Besides, he told himself,we have worse things to worry about...

[Castle Crashers]

Nyx continued to sob, pressing her face gently into his shoulder as she cried. It wasn't an act of love, an act of romance but simply...grief. Loneliness. It felt too...unreal. Like this should all just be a nightmare and she'd wake up in Hyperion's arms, where she'd been only half an hour ago. To think, she'd been talking to him merely an hour ago. It just seemed so...far-fetched. She should be dead, not him. He didn't deserve to die, he never did. She'd done so many horrible things, she was the one that deserved death. And yet...he was gone. She was alone. All alone, her heart a hollow case, her eyes two dull emotionless discs. She didn't know if she could ever be alright, and she didn't think she could ever forgive Ryu. She could barely even breathe, barely focus.
She could only think of how she would never be able to live without him.

He seemed uncomfortable with her crying into his shoulder, but he eventually relaxed and started to pat her back. "Loneliness hurts. I reacted the same as you when my love died." He said weakly as back tears started to run down his cheeks. Although tears ran down his face, he showed no signs of sadness.

Nyx's sobs soon quieted, and for a while she was only crying silently, almost no sounds escaping her distraught being. "...he was everything to me." She sniffled, pulling away and rubbing at her bloodshot eyes. She took the broken rose back into her hand, a bitter smile crossing her face as she looked down on it. "and now I have nothing."

Genbu waddles off Hamiri's hand, snapping something about just wondering how the date went.

Raphael glances at Xavier. "What was that, brother?" he asks, head tilted.

[Theyra]

Okay, just I saw you frowning and its been a hard day for all of us. And if you are still sad about...... Holo you can talk to me about it.

Raphael tenses a little at the mention of .... Her name, then keeps on smiling. Though a little sad.

"I'm... Okay for now, thank you for the offer though, Mair." he replied quietly.

"I just wanted to make sure you were okay Raphael...... Can I ask what you two were talking about"?

Lucifer looks for Violet.

"Oh, just a dream." he replies, waving it off.

"You still have your friends." He said, starting to show some emotion. "They are there to help you. I on the other hand have no friends. Anyone I talk to usually tries to kill me a few seconds afterwards." He said with sadness in his tone. He held up his arm as a chain around his wrist started to glow and burn.

[Theyra]

"I just wanted to make sure you were okay Raphael...... Can I ask what you two were talking about"?

"Oh, just a dream." he replies, waving it off.

"A dream"? Mair starts to get concerned. "was it a normal dream or...... a one with a shadow in it"?

[Free Empire of the Low Isles]

"Oh, just a dream." he replies, waving it off.

"A dream"? Mair starts to get concerned. "was it a normal dream or...... a one with a shadow in it"?

"Oh, it was a nightmare..." Raphael says, shrugging. "I all I really know is that it was scary..."

"Oh, it was a nightmare..." Raphael says, shrugging. "I all I really know is that it was scary..."

"Uh Raphael", Mair places her hand on his shoulder. "I talked with Xavier the first time he... dreamed about the "shadow". "If its is that then me and Voi will help him with it".

"Uhm, thank you for the offer, but he's okay..." Raphael says, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly and looking at Xavier.

"Sure, they care when I'm upset, but they don't actually care about me." She furrowed her brow. "They don't care about me on a normal basis. This'll be the only time they actually care because Hyperion is..." She didn't finish, shaking it away. "That's because they actually cared about him. They didn't actually care about me...the only reason they care now is because we were in a relationship." It stung to use past tense when talking about him, not only because it was only an hour ago that she last saw him. Not just because she loved to be around him. It was because she loved him, and she still did. Love never died, not with her. Love was...eternal, at least for her. She depended on him, and now that he was gone...if it weren't for Amaterasu or the other sun gods and goddesses, she would probably be dead by now. In ways, she wished she was. She wanted that more than...anything, really. She wanted to die to be with him in some magical afterlife, if there was one. She didn't want to live without him. Nyx looked up at Lance, then to the chain around his wrist, her eyes still glossy and tearful and bloodshot. "What's that for..?"

He was about to say, but its color changed to a bright red and sizzling can be heard. After forcing a smile through the pain he answered. "It's to prevent me from... Nevermind" He pulled out a handkerchief and handed it to her. "You should wipe your tears."

[Cruxa]

Lucifer flew up into the air and began to look for Violet.

Lucifer flew up into the air and began to look for Violet.

She was sleeping on the top branch of a massive oak tree.

She was in her fox form. Her tail swayed slowly as she rested peacefully.

He was about to say, but its color changed to a bright red and sizzling can be heard. After forcing a smile through the pain he answered. "It's to prevent me from... Nevermind" He pulled out a handkerchief and handed it to her. "You should wipe your tears."

Nyx took the handkerchief, using it to wipe the tears from her eyes. "..thanks." She sniffled. She could finally feel the lump in her throat fading, feeling worn and tired from all her crying. It was horrible--she couldn't recall the last time she had been truly exhausted, let alone cry. Her heart felt like a little shard of glass; something that was once full of beauty and life was now broken and in shambles. Useless. It felt like at one point she had been flying ten thousand feet above the ground, and suddenly she dive-bombed for the ground, hitting it with a devastating blow. That's what it felt like--like she was scattered into a million different pieces, never to be repaired. It simply...didn't work that way with her heart. Where she was once caring and compassionate was now a desolate emotionless landscape.

He stepped forward and hugged her. It was more of a friendly hug as he tried to comfort her. He went back to his emotionless state while he did it.
