"Our business is life itself"
History
This Umbrella Corp building was created long ago, some say it was built when the Nexus was first traveled into. They create many of the medical equipment and supplies that everyone uses. From the simple band-aid to the mighty medical nanobots, they supply it all. Unbeknownst to the NPCs and a lot of the PCs, they also make money by creating germ weapons and whole armies to sell for cash to the highest bidder. Their shady business is what provides most of their money.

Business
The Umbrella Corporation has made many great discoveries in the medical and scientific fields. They have the best medical supplies and doctors anywhere. They also run many experiments in their lowest facilities. These include manipulation of the human genome, cloning, gene splicing, and germ weapons. They also make weapons, food, computers, and some vehicles. Some products are:
Adravil: A paste-based drug with the motto of "Quick and Easy Relief: Adravil". It is like Advil.
Safsprin: An Aspirin-based brand. This brand's motto is "The Common Cure".
Uspirim: Another Umbrella Aspirin-based product.
Aqua Cure: Umbrella's crowning public achievement, Aqua Cure is an ointment used on open wounds that made the company famous worldwide. It is considered to be Umbrella's primary public product and is very effective.The t-virus is used on this product to re-accommodate the damaged cells, though no side-effect has been shown from this product.
Valifin: Valifin is an experimental pediatric heart medication that has a side-effect of renal failure.
Regenerate: Regenerate is a skincare product that uses the t-virus to reanimate dead skin cells, making the user appear younger.
Return: A weight pill. This pill features the ability to burn up to 30 pounds per pill. Developed using the t-virus.
Sporting Int. Magnum Custom Edition A mix between a Desert Eagle and a Colt M1911, it uses .50AE rounds.
Incinerator Unit A gun that uses some parts of the Colt M4A1 Carbine and fires a long range flame.
Semi-Automatic Anti-Tank Rifle A large rifle used to destroy light armored vehicles. It can punch through 3 cm. of reinforced steel.
Spark Shot A gun that fires electric shocks to control experimental animals.
Mine Thrower A gun with specialized darts that will detonate if something pass near them, or attach themselves to a creature.
Elite Python A modified version of the Colt Python made by Umbrella.
Linear Launcher A Shoulder-Mounted cannon that fires extremely powerful blast of plasma.
Charged Particle Rifle A gun that charges particles with negative or positive shocks that can electrocute somebody or deactivate electric shields and damage electric artifacts due to the EMP emitted by it.
Umbrella Magnum This model is actually a Raging Bull .44 Magnum, it is called the Magnum Revolver

Employee Info
The Umbrella Corporation employs over a hundred security personal who live in The Hive and hundreds of other employees. The employees of the Umbrella Corporation are from many fields of science. There are scientists, genealogists, biochemists, biologists, bioengineers, doctors, neurologists, plastic surgeons, and many other people from the scientific fields. There is a clearance system that decides how far into The Hive they can go. Level 1 Clearance only permits them to be in the above building. Level 2 Clearance permits them to be on the first floor of The Hive. Level 3 Clearance allows them to be on floors 1-2. Level 4, floors 1-3. Level 5, floors 1-4. Level 6, floors 1-5. And so on until Level 10 Clearance(which allows them to be on floors 1-9 in The Hive). Each floor in The Hive houses different scientific research. There is also a danger level that is shown in the form of Umbrella Corp's glowing logo in important areas.
Green is Little to No Danger.
Blue is Small to Minor Danger.
Yellow is Small to Medium Danger.
Orange is Medium to Serious Danger.
Red is Critical Danger.
Red is only shown when a dangerous virus or creature is let loose into the facility. This is when all doors are locked down in The Hive and everything is killed using cyanide. When Orange is shown, everyone is evacuated from The Hive and when it shows Yellow everyone is to stop working and prepare for the chance of an Orange Danger Level. Most employees are NPCs, with the occasional PC working there.

The Facility
Above ground is the large skyscraper where all of the doctors and pencil pushers work. Below in The Hive is where everyone else works. There are 11 floors in The Hive, each have 4 large wings. Each wing has 5 large labs filled with the best equipment and 2 living quarters, one for the men and one for the women. Floor 1 is where the Medical Research is done. Floor 2 is where the Scientific Research is done. Floor 3 is where the work with Viruses and Germs and Bacteria is done, it gets its own floor due to its importance. Floors 4-6 are where the private labs are. Floor 7 is the Security Floor where the labs are replaced with armories filled with weaponry that is not electric based and the weapons Umbrella Corp makes. Security Personal live on this floor which also has kitchens and bathrooms. All Employees are allowed on this floor. Floor 8 is the Lock Down Floor. All air vents and entrances and exits here are automatically closed upon reaching a Danger Level of Yellow. The floor also doubles as being where the biohazard suits and bio-detox areas are. Floors 9 and 10 is where experimentations on the human genome, cloning, and controlled mutations are done. Floor 11 is where all the live experiments are stored. Each floor has it's own source of power from 12 different generators underground beneath The Hive. The Facility is constantly monitored by a highly advanced computer AI that is housed in Floor 7.

Security Personal
Security Personal are located on every floor. At least 20 are on duty on each floor except for Floor 8, which has at least 20 guards in each wing. Each guard is equipped with a MP5 for close combat crowd control, an M16 for mid range combat, a Desert Eagle, and an 8 inch combat knife with both a serrated edge and an edge that cuts as sharp as oblivion. They wear the kind of gear you would see on a U.S. Solider in Afghanistan. They luckily don't get overheated thanks to the entire Hive being air conditioned except for the labs that have a separate climate control. The security for the above building is more lax with them only having typical police gear and uniforms that are like a police uniform.

Joining
Employment is easy to get at Umbrella Corp if you have good credentials. They also sent out employment invitations to many PCs that have scientific degrees and experience as well as PCs with military and combat backgrounds. There are rigorous background checks so if someone has a criminal record they will be watched extra carefully.

Human Experiments:
The Umbrella Corporation has human test subjects that are kept on Floor 11 with other experiments. They are treated with dignity and have their own rooms and whatever they want. They can have things from Lizard DNA to enhanced muscle growth. They are named for the order in which they were created and are allowed to talk to each and do things together. A woman doctor of the highest caliber watches over them.
Side Notes: The ordering offices of Umbrella Corporation are always open. To order the more shady products you have to make an appointment with the owner, Jane Dorloris. Anyone can make a test subject that lives on Floor 11.
Most of their equipment is EMP shielded.

"Remember, our business is life itself, so do your best!"

[Mina Kobold]

Floor 11

An Elven girl, or at least part of her is that, opens her normal eye as she awakens and turns her head. Her robotic eye obtaining a lot of information that makes her head hurt as she sees the white table she is lying on.

She tries to sit up and lean on what is now her arm, but which seems to belong to a bear, and unconsciously stretches her black wings. One bat-like and one bird-like.

"...?"

She looks rather confused, her muteness compensated for by her Elven eye's expressiveness. Even if she is not bound, she doesn't really feel like trying to walk on the lion paws that replace her feet again.

Floor 11
She isn't bound. A person wearing a hazard suit walks in. She pulls down a long, thin object from the ceiling and looks at her.
"-krrrrk- I need you to let me look at bat wing's joint. Do I have to bound you to the table or shall we go about this politely?-krrrrk-" a female voice asks in common.

[Mina Kobold]

Floor 11

The girl looks curiously at the hazard-suit woman and slowly nods and smiles. She dresses weirdly, but this woman seems nice. Nothing like...

Who where she better than? Why did the girl think that?

The bat wing seems to originate from a demon, although the blood is mostly wood elf as the girl's ears and tan suggest, and have been incredibly precisely grafted onto her back in a way that almost makes it impossible to determine where Elf ends and wing begins.

Floor 11
The woman takes the instrument and ran it around the space where the wing was attached to her back. She then ran it all around the wing, the small device's rays were probably tickling the girl.
"-krrrrt- May I please see your other wing?-krrrrt"
She moved around the girl to her other wing. Another woman in a hazard walked in and had the same instrument as the first woman.
"-krrrt- Can you please lift up your arm?-krrrrt-"
She pointed to the girl's bear arm.

[Mina Kobold]

Floor 11

The girl soundlessly snicker at the tickling sensation and nods again, shifting to allow the hazard-suit woman to access the other wing. It appears to be similarly grafted but originate from a Devil instead.

She looks curiously at the second lady and lifts her arm carefully, trying not to let the still unfamiliar weight of her wings get her off balance. A task which seems to tie into some long-forgotten routine of hers, perhaps she used to carry a bag?

Normally one would use their other arm for support, but there is nothing but dried blood and a scar to reveal that she ever had one. Blood which stood out quite a lot on the white gown she had previously worn.

Curiously she looks down to see if she is still wearing it.

Floor 11
She will see that she is wearing a fresh white gown. It has a small Umbrella Corp. Symbol where a lapel would be on it.
The new woman scans her arm, most likely causing more tickling sensations with in the girl. The first woman scans her other wing with the device in the exact same manner as the first one. Once done the new women looked at her.
"-krrrrt-May I scan your legs?-krrrrt-"
The first woman puts the long device of hers into what appears to be a holding device. She presses a button on a holding device, causing a short hiss of air going into an airless space to happen. She quickly grabs what looks to be like a syringe, but is for drawing blood. Up to 10 ml can be stored in it. She grabbed anti-bacterial stuff.
"-krrrt-We just need to get a blood sample and then we're done. May I? I promise it won't hurt.-krrrt" the woman said in a convincing voice.

[Mina Kobold]

Floor 11

The girl looks studiously at the Umbrella Corp. Logo before nodding absent-mindedly at the newest woman. Her legs seems to be Elven above the knees but below they are lion legs, which makes walking without falling difficult. Both legs and arm are grafted on as well, although slightly better mended with the elven part of her.

When the first woman ask for blood, the girl's head jolts up to stare at the needle.

"!"

She seems a tad scared of it, even to the point of turning pale below her tan, and inches away from it. Her mechanical eye clicking and cataloguing the event.

Floor 11
The newest woman scans her legs quickly, briefly running it along the pads of her feet. She then places the device in the holding device and closed it. It locked with several different locks. She then picked it up and walked out of the room.
The first women puts the needle away, she saw how scared the girl was of it. She pressed a button, causing the room they were in to go back to THE HIVE'S regular oxygen. The woman took off her hazmat suit's head gear, revealing a middle aged woman with no gray in her hair. She could be considered pretty. She had no wrinkles yet, and looked to be about 30. She had brown hair and blue eyes, but looked rather normal. She had one of those faces that you feel you've seen everywhere.
"It's okay, we don't need to do the blood. We took a sample when we first found you so we were able to get a good sample then. It would have just been preferable to see if the sedatives were out of your system."
She held out her hand to be shook.
"I'm Jennifer, the other kids will be happy to see you. Are you able to speak?"

[Mina Kobold]

Floor 11

The girl relaxes as the needle is put away and absently notice the change in the air. When the woman takes off her mask, she studies her face curiously and shakes her head.

She cannot speak.

The girl herself looks young, about mid-to-late teens in human, with a tan. Her normal eye is dark blue and her hair neck-long and light brown. Her mechanical eye is green and not particularly eye-like in design, her left ear is shaped as the Elven one but similarly mechanical.

She gestures with her claw, forming a square and mimicking the act of painting or writing.

Floor 11
Jennifer smiled and took out a note pad and a pen. She hands them to the girl.
"Come, let's get you into some real clothes. We took measurements while you were sleeping. We'll answer all of your questions then. Does that sound okay?"

[Mina Kobold]

Floor 11

The girl starts awkwardly scribbling with the pen while nodding to Jennifer, it sounds OK.

She holds up the notepad soon to show it to Jennifer.

"[Clothes would be nice.]

[I do not remember my name, but my... tak? tagg? said Meliaceae.]

[But Meddy called me Meli, a pleasure to meet you Jenfer]"

She looks hopefully at Jennifer to see if she got it right, Common is a foregn language to write for her. She thinks, she still can't remember.

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11
The woman smiles warmly.
"Good to meet you, Meli. Do you require help walking?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11]

A mostly-human man opens his eyes, dropping off the white table he was on, and into a feral-looking crouch. He opens his mouth and hisses, a long forked tongue coming out, tasting the air. This also reveals curved fangs in place of his canines, like those of a snake.

He looks confused.

Floor 11
A woman in a hazmat suit walked in.
"-krrt-Please get back onto the table, I don't want to have to restrain you.-krrt-"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11]

The snake-man will get back on the table, and continue to taste the air.

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11
The woman takes out a pencil like device that was used on the elf girl from a case. She brings it over.
"-krrt-Please lay down so we can get some basic scans done.-krrt-"
The air tastes bland. The entire room is sterile.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11]

He lays down, though somewhat awkwardly, considering that he has a tail.

"Who are you?"

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11
The woman quickly scans around his head and chest, most likely tickling him with the rays it uses.
"-krrt-You'll find out once we're done. Can you please flip over and raise your tail and spread your legs?-krrt-"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11]

He does so, though he looks warily at the device in her hand.

From here, she should be able to see that his feet have... Teeth? Odd. Who decided to replace his toenails with fangs?

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11
She scans his legs and his tail, not commenting about his toenails. She quickly scans his back and his arms and then places the device in a holding case. She then took out the syringe-blood drawer.
"-krrt-Please sit up so that I can draw some blood. We need to see if the sedatives are out of your system-krrt-"

[Lady Serpentine]

"Sedatives?"
That would explain why he was confused when he woke up.

He'll sit up.

His back is covered in fur. His fingernails have been replaced with claws.

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11
The woman nodded and wiped down Snake-Boy's arm with a anti-bacterial stuff. She then found his vein and plunged the needle in, withdrawing 10 mL of blood. She removes the vial part and places it in the container. She then pressed a button, letting the normal air back into the lab. She took off the hazmat suit's helmet, revealing that she was only 20. She had long blonde hair and could be called attractive. She was average looking though. She also took off the suit, revealing a black t-shirt, jeans, and a lab coat.
"Come on, let's go get you into some clothes."
Snake-Boy would see that he was wearing just a hospital gown with a slit in the back for his tail. Where the lapel could be was the Umbrella Corporation's logo.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11]

"All right."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11
Another person in a hazmat suit walks in and grabs the box with the strange device and the blood sample in it. The person then walks out.
The woman looks at Snake-Boy.
"Alright, follow me and I'll show you your room."
She opens the door by pressing a button.
"By the way, do you have a name?"

[Lady Serpentine]

He thinks for a moment before saying... "Call me Tirin."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11
"Alright, Tirin, I'm Elena."
She finally arrived at a room. The hallways were white around them. She pressed a red button, causing the door to slide into the wall. Inside was a comfortable looking room. It had cream white walls and a light on the ceiling. There was a twin sized bed with navy blue sheets and blankets. There was a dresser with clothes nicely taliored to Tirin's body. They had slits in the back for his tail as well.
"This is your room. Go ahead and get changed, we need to talk about some things. Just call for me if you need help, okay?"
She went into the room and pointed at some buttons.
"The red button opens your door, the green one locks it when you need privacy for changing, and the blue one alerts me so use it only when in danger."
She got out of the room so he could change.

[Lady Serpentine]

He presses the green button, and then changes into his new clothes. He tears a couple of sets before getting used to the claws, and the fangs on his feet, but he gets into the third one after about five minutes.

He presses the red button.

[Mina Kobold]

Floor 11
The woman smiles warmly.
"Good to meet you, Meli. Do you require help walking?"

Floor 11

Meli looks thoughtful and awkwardly gets up, moving her wings ever so slightly to keep balance.

Taking a few steps she sways but overall seems to be getting the hang of having paws instead of feet. She holds up the notepad after scribbling a word on it.

"[No! ^_^]"

If Jennifer pays attention, she may notice that Meli uses the pen a lot like one would normally use a paintbrush.

[Mindfreak]

He presses the green button, and then changes into his new clothes. He tears a couple of sets before getting used to the claws, and the fangs on his feet, but he gets into the third one after about five minutes.

He presses the red button.
Floor 11
"Very nice." she said while looking over his new clothes. All that was in the dresser was t-shirts and jeans.
"If you want a different type of clothing, just ask, okay? We need to get some of the questioning done now. Please, follow me to the rec room."
Once he gets out of his room a woman comes by and labels it with his name.
Elena begins to walk.
"By the way, do you have any questions?"

Floor 11
Jennifer smiled again.
"Alright, follow me to the rec room, I'll be able to answer all of your questions there."
She walks out of the room.
"Or would you like to change into new clothes first?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11]

He'll follow. He's starting to calm down, now that he's over the initial shock. After all, Elena has been quite nice so far.

"Yes. Where am I? And, who are you?"

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11
"I'm Elena Zero, Umbrella Corp's first test subject. See?"
She uncurled her tail from her back and flicked it around, it looked like a cat's tail, but big enough for a human.
"I was born and raised here. Eventually, I went to college and got my medical degree. They hired me here to watch over the others like me. You're at Umbrella Corp. The Nexus' leading medical provider. We found you and decided to take you. Don't worry, we treat you right here. We actually care about your needs."
She opens the rec room's door, revealing a wide screen tv, a comfy looking couch, a LAZ-E-BOY Recliner, some video game systems, a pool table, a foosball table, a ping pong table, and a large shelf full of books, movies, and video games. She sat down on the couch.
"Please, take a seat. I need to ask you some questions."
She motioned for him to take a seat on the LAZ-E-BOY Recliner.

[Lady Serpentine]

"Nice to meet you."

And... Nice room. Not bad. He'll sit in the indicated spot.

"Fire away."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Rec Room
Elena gets up and grabs a clipboard with a piece of paper on it. She sits back down and takes a pencil out of her pocket on her lab coat.
"Alright, how old are you and how long have you been like this?"
She already wrote his name down.

[Lady Serpentine]

"Not sure."

Probably no more than twenty.

"Since about a year ago."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Rec Room
Elena quickly wrote this all down. She also begin to write his physical description down.
"Are you finding you clothes comfortable?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Rec Room]

"Yes. Quite comfortable."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Rec Room
She finishes up with his physical description.
"Just when question left and then we just have to run you through a fitness test."
She writes something down very quickly.
"Do you remember anything from before you became as you are now?"

[Lady Serpentine]

"No. I don't think so, anyway."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Rec Room
Elena wrote it down and took the piece of paper. She rolled it up and put it into a capsule. She then put it into the mail tube, sending it to the biology division.
"Alright, time for a fitness test to see how fit you are. Would you like some time to prepare or are you good to go now?"
She pressed a button on the wall of the Rec Room, making everything flip around revealing fitness testing equipment.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Rec Room]

"I'm ready."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Rec Room
She begins to run him though a series of tests that take an hour or two. Tirin may have passed with flying colors or not, it depends on what C'nor thinks. Once they're done she smiles.
"Very good."

[Lady Serpentine]

Sure, passing well sounds good.

He's a part-Barghest-snake-man, he should be fit enough.

He'll return her smile, and say
"Thanks."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Rec Room
"Is there anything you wish to do now?"
She pressed the button, turning the room back into the rec room.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Rec Room]

"I'm not sure. What is there to do here?"

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Rec Room
"Pool, ping pong, tv, video games, even just running outside. We can do whatever you feel like doing."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Rec Room]

"I think I'd like some fresh air. Let's head outside."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Rec Room
She lead him out into the hallway and to an elevator. Once he was in, she pressed the button for the top floor. It took a couple minutes to travel to the top floor. She got out and walked to the backdoor of the top building, leading him to a door. She pushed it open to a wide expanse of ground. It was a beautiful 75 degrees out, no chance of rain, lots of people are excited.
"Do you want to play a rousing game of soccer?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

He grins. Given the fact that he has snake teeth replacing his canines, this could be a bit unnerving. Or not. Whichever.

"Sure."

[Mindfreak]

Roof
The roof has guard rails to prevent people from falling off.
She grabs a soccer ball from a sports equipment closet and also two goals. She set up the goals. The ground itself was almost the size of a football field.
"Prepare to get your butt whooped."
She placed the ball down in the middle of the field and went to her goal. Once he got to his own she took off her lab coat and threw it to the side. She grinned wildly and said two words:
"Bring. It."
And then she ran to go grab the ball, and let me tell you, SHE'S AS FAST AS A CAT!

[Lady Serpentine]

He leaps for the ball. He's probably somewhat slower than her, though.

[Mindfreak]

Roof
Elena slides and gets the ball! She gets back up smoothly and starts running with the ball being kicked by her feet. She looked back and laughed.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

He howls as he starts to run after her. Unconsciously, of course. Apparently running after someone triggered some dormant part of his brain...

Given that he's part Barghest, the howling is probably unpleasant, to say the least.

[Mindfreak]

Roof
She's heard worse.
She slows down enough for him to be able to catch up with her.
"You're kinda a slowpoke!"

[Lady Serpentine]

((One note, just in case you're unaware - Barghests have a howl that causes intense fear in anyone that hears it. His would probably be less nasty, since he's only part Barghest. If you are aware, then that's fine, naturally. I just want to be sure you know.))

[Roof]

He'll try to lash out with his snake-tail and trip her.

[Mindfreak]

Roof
((She's literally heard worse. There are those experiments that aren't the successful ones. And she has to take care of all of them))
Her own tail comes out and begins to wrestle with his tail, while she's running.
...
Truly, this is one of the most epic things ever.
"Tripping's against the rules!"

[Lady Serpentine]

((I'm sorry for her, in that case.))

[Roof]

He's thoroughly enjoying himself by this point

"This is one of the things that we probably should have covered before starting, isn't it?"

[Mindfreak]

Roof
"Well, I thought you knew every little tiny rule in soccer! Guess I was presuming too much!"
A single look on Elena's face shows that she's having a ton of fun. Her tail is out and her hair is moving freely. She gets close enough to his goal and she kicks the soccer ball! Unless he can do something to stop it, she will score a goal.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

"Soccer isn't normally played by those with tails, y'know."

He says this as he leaps toward the ball. It's a good leap, using his enhanced strength. Unless she threw it extraordinarily hard, he'll probably catch it.

[Mindfreak]

Roof
He does catch it. And unless he moves when he lands she trips over him.
She gets up and laughes.
"Well that was fun...." she said. It was getting dark and the stars were coming out.
"Oh look! The stars are coming out!"
She moved into the middle of the field and laid down to stare upwards. She remembered that she still had to tell him that testing started tomorrow.

[Mina Kobold]

Floor 11
Jennifer smiled again.
"Alright, follow me to the rec room, I'll be able to answer all of your questions there."
She walks out of the room.
"Or would you like to change into new clothes first?"

Meli shrugs and writes a last sentence on the page of the notepad.

"[Clothes are nice, but I do not mind]"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

He'll go and sit down next to her, watching the stars.

[Mindfreak]

Meli shrugs and writes a last sentence on the page of the notepad.

"[Clothes are nice, but I do not mind]"

Jennifer will lead her to a room in a hallway where the walls are white. She presses a red button next to a door.
"This will be your room. The red button inside opens the door, the green one locks it for privacy, and the blue one calls me so only use it in an emergency. There are clothes in the dresser, they should all fit you."
Inside is a room with cream colored walls and a dresser filled with t-shirts with slits in the back for her wings to go through and jeans perfect to put her legs through without ripping the jeans. There is a bed with green sheets and blankets.
"If you need any help putting them on just knock on the door, okay?"
----
Roof
"Tirin, we're starting testing with you tomorrow. We need to find out what makes you tick, your DNA sequences, etc. It will be a couple weeks of intense testing with breaks in between and we need to plan these breaks before hand. So we need to talk about that soon."
She watched the stars.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

"All right. Soon, then."

He keeps watching the stars. They're nice.

[Mindfreak]

Roof
Elena got up and stuck out a hand to help up Tirin.
"Come on, it's late and you have a day of testing tomorrow. Do you want to come up here during your break times tomorrow?"

[Lady Serpentine]

He'll take her hand, and let her help him up. He'll also smile.

"That sounds nice."

[Mindfreak]

Roof
"Let's go then." she said while letting go of his hand. She would then lead him back down to his room.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof -> Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

He'll follow her back.

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Tirin's Room
She presses the red button, opening his door.
"There should be pajamas in the bottom drawer. Can I get you anything? Food? Something to drink?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

"Some water would be good. What is there to eat?"

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Tirin's Room
"What are you in the mood for? If it isn't completely outragous we probably have it. The people in the cafeteria are like masters with food."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

"Steak sounds good."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Tirin's Room
"Alright." she says.
She took out a walkie-talkie and called in the order, making it medium. She was guessing he'd like it still a bit bloody.
"I'm going to go get your order, okay?"
She was at the doorway.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

"Thanks."

She was right about the steak.

[Mindfreak]

Doing things
Elena left the room, pressing the red button to close the door.
-20 Minutes Later-
She opened the door again.
"I got your food."
She had a plate with a rump steak cooked to medium on it with salt and pepper on it as well. She also had a large bottle of water in one of those recycled water bottles that are awesome for running. She would hand them to him if he was still in the room, there would also be a fork and a knife if needed.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

He's still in the room, sitting on the edge of the bed.

He'll smile at her, and then begin to eat. He does use the knife and fork, and occasionally drinks some water.

If she has anything to say before he falls asleep for the night, now's the time.

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Tirin's Room
She gives him a kiss on the forehead.
"Goodnight, Tirin."
She does this with all of the test subjects that are still remotly human. Suddenly, she gets a message on her walkie-talkie.
"-krrrrt-Elena, Zero is awake, I repeat, Zero is awake-krrrt-"
She nearly drops the walkie-talkie.
"Crap."
She looks at Tirin.
"Hey Tirin, I'm going to need your help to calm down one of the other kids."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

"Sure. What do you need me to do?"

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Tirin's Room
"I need you to hold down Zero while I give him his shot. He's dangorous with out it, it helps him stay in control."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

"All right. Let's go."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Tirin's Room
Elena looked relieved.
"Alright, I hope you can do this....."
And then she lead them to Zero's Chamber.
Zero's Chamber
Within the chamber was a Zero. He looked like a normal human being except for the tentacles on his back and his eyes glowing red. He cried an awful moan.
"Go! Pin him down!" she said while getting the syringe ready.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Zero's Chamber]

Harin will try to grab his arms and use his tail to trip him, hopefully pinning him down, at the same time using his other talents to try and read Zero's emotions.

He wonders what this guy is part - maybe a shoggoth?

[Mindfreak]

Zero's Chamber
He succesfully pinned down Zero!
Zero begins to try pushing off of the ground with his tentacles and tries to bite at Tirin's face.
If Tirin can read emotions then he will feel overwhelming confusion and rage coming off of Zero.
"Hold him steady!"
She tries to give him his shot when one of the tentacles came out and hit her hard. She went flying across the room, the syringe landing nearby, unbroken. She gave a small moan of pain.
Zero begins to buck like crazy, trying to get Tirin off.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Zero's Chamber]

He can indeed read emotions. Part of the Barghest thing. He can also eat them.

So he tries to siphon off Zero's rage.

While he does that, he's also trying to keep a firm hold on Zero.

[Mindfreak]

Zero's Chamber
The rage just keeps on coming and coming, it's almost instantly replaced as soon as it's drained away!
Elena got up slowly, and picked up the syringe. She walked over and gave Zero his shot successfully this time. His rage began to ebb away as did his confusion, being replaced with calmness and clarity.
"You can let go of him now. He won't do anyone any more harm this month."
She had a small trickle of blood on her head.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Zero's Chamber]

Tirin feels uncomfortably stuffed at this point. He lets Zero up.

"Are you okay, Elena?"

[Mindfreak]

Zero's Chamber
Zero was asleep now.
"Yeah, I think so. Let's get you to bed."
She tries to lead him back to his room.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Zero's Chamber -> Tirin's Room]

He'll follow. On the way back, he says "What is that guy? I tried to calm him down, but it was like there was something pouring rage into him."

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Walking
"He's a mix between a demon, a human, and a Shoggath. Thankfully, we can help him stay in control using drugs. Every time he wakes up like that he becomes a little more full of rage."
She begins to wobble a bit. She leans on Tirin for support.
"Tirin? Can you carry me to the medical bay?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[In transit -> Medical Bay]

Tirin will steady her, and then, unless she's exceptionally heavy for some reason, will pick her up and say

"You can give me directions, right?

If she can, he'll start carrying her there.

[Mindfreak]

Medical Bay
She indeed gives him directions to the medical bay, where there is a doctor just sitting there, bored.
"Yes? What do you need?"
She passes out before she gets a chance to answer.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Medical Bay]

"I don't know; she was giving Zero his shot, and she got slammed into a wall."

Tirin looks very distressed. And like he wants to rip something apart.

[Mina Kobold]

Jennifer will lead her to a room in a hallway where the walls are white. She presses a red button next to a door.
"This will be your room. The red button inside opens the door, the green one locks it for privacy, and the blue one calls me so only use it in an emergency. There are clothes in the dresser, they should all fit you."
Inside is a room with cream colored walls and a dresser filled with t-shirts with slits in the back for her wings to go through and jeans perfect to put her legs through without ripping the jeans. There is a bed with green sheets and blankets.
"If you need any help putting them on just knock on the door, okay?"

Meli looks at the clothes with huge eyes and absent-mindedly tries to write on the notepad.

"[Thankes]"

She immediately shuts the door and opens it three minutes later, wearing a red shirt and the bluest jeans she could find. Her paws shouldn't be much of a problem, as they're smaller than feet and have retractable claws.

"[How do I look? :D]"

She holds up the notepad.

[Mindfreak]

Medical Bay
That made the doctor stand front and center!
"Lay her on that table over there." he said while pointing to a medical table. He got a bottle of holy water and a band-aid.
"The thing is, Zero is part demon. This makes it so that any wounds he inflicts is unholy."
----
Landing Bay
The helicopter with GG in a cage beneath it drops the cage down in the landing bay, it flies off elsewhere. Soldiers come out and begin to push the cage towards a platform. Once on top, it goes down and down. It finally reaches a room on floor 11. The room is made entirely out of dwarven worked adamentine. The only doorway has several different locking doors, each made of Dwarven worked adamentine. The adamentine of the room itself is 10 inches thick, and the ones the doors are made of is 5 inches thick. This used to be Zero's old chamber, until he needed a new one. The cage is then opened. GG might notice a large pile of meat in the room. Fresh, raw elephant meat.
---
Meli's Room
"Pretty Snaaazy. You ready to go answer some questions and for some questions to be answered?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Medical Bay]

Tirin will lay her on the table, gently probing her emotions to see if they show any sign of being corrupted by the same kind of thing that Zero had. If they are, he'll try and remove it before it gets any real strength.

[Mindfreak]

Medical Bay
A very small seed of rage is within her mind. It is easily removed. The doctor rubs down her wound with holy water and has her drink a small amount of it. He bandages her head.
"Tirin, can you please carry me to my room...."

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Cell - Floor 11]

Soon after the cage door opens, GG awakens.

She glances around the cell, taking in her surroundings.

This isn't the first time she's woken up in an alien place.

She stretches her limbs and yawns before dragging herself to her feet.

She stares at the meat in the cell in disgust.

Dead.

Where's the sport in that?

GG refuses to consume things she doesn't kill herself.

It's a predator thing.

Momentarily, GG walks over to the door and gently kicks it, scanning the chamber for recording devices as she does so.

If the monitoring systems are putting out unmasked thermal energy, she'll likely cue right in on them.

GG doesn't like this.

She doesn't like this one bit.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Medical Bay -> Elana's Room]


"Of course. Again, I'll need some directions."

He still looks like he wants to kill something, but the dismay on his face is starting to smooth out. He'll pick her up and start carrying her there, assuming she gives them.

"Also, has anyone else been injured by Zero? It could have more consequences than you're aware of."

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber - Floor 11
There's no recording devices, only a camera and a mic. A voice comes out of a speaker.
"I see.....you don't like meat that's already dead......"
She will be able to hear the hiss of doors opening and closing until finally, the one she can see is opened. 2 cows walk in, the door she can see closes behind them.
"If you're a good girl, you'll get more."
----
Elena's Room
"I'm the only one who handles him. Holy water does the trick to counter the effects. The first person to handle Zero eventually went crazy with rage and killed everyone working here."
The room Elena directs Tirin to is right next to his. It also looks almost exactly like his except it had pink sheets and blankets and posters on the walls and a computer and a television.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Elana's Room -> Tirin's Room]

He sets Elana down on her bed, and pulls the blankets over her.

"Yes. That's what I mean. Those injured by him, at least, are corrupted by a small seed of the same thing that you're trying to keep him in control of. I was able to remove it from you, though."

He pauses for a moment.

"There are things we need to talk about later, but, for now, you need to sleep"

And with that, if he's not stopped, he'll flick off the lights, close the door, and return to his own room, to get some rest himself before the testing begins.

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber - Floor 11]

"'If you're a good girl, you'll get more.'"

"Ha!"

"You're funny!"

"Do you think I'm nothing more than an animal?"

"Do you think I'm feral?"

"A savage beast, perhaps?"

"I do wish I knew so that I could act accordingly."

GG laughs as she throws one of the cows to the ground and seats herself upon it.

What a weird monster!

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber
A bed comes up, a king sized bed.
"I do believe that you won't hesitate to kill my men. Thus, you're dangerous. But, there's things we can learn from you. If you co-operate, you will be let go easily. If not, you'll be treated horribly. Do I make myself clear?"
---
Elena's Room
Elena falls fast asleep.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

Tirin also falls asleep quickly, after finishing his food.

((Shall we split the timelines here and start the testing, or do you want to wait until the situation with the new girl is resolved?))

[Mindfreak]

Floor 11 - Tirin's Room
A knock on his door is heard at 6 a.m., outside of his door is Elena with a plate with hearty helpings of eggs, sausage, and bacon. Plus a fork.

[Mina Kobold]

Meli's Room
"Pretty Snaaazy. You ready to go answer some questions and for some questions to be answered?"

Meli nods and smiles, she isn't going to waste the entire notepad now if there are questions.

Or is she? She kind of want to draw a pegasus.

[Mindfreak]

Rec Room
She leads her to the Rec-Room. Which was previously described.
Jennifer grabs a clipboard and fills out the info.
"Well, it seems we don't need to fill out much of this except for one thing. How long have you been like this?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

Tirin wakes up, and open the door.

"Hey, Elena. Are you feeling better?"

He accepts the plate of food, and the fork.

"Thanks."

He sits down on the bed, and begins eating his breakfast.

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber - Floor 11]

GG smirks.

This guy really thought that he was in charge!

What a card!

"Teehee!"

"Horrible! I don't think you even know the definition of the word!"

"But that's just my opinion. It doesn't really matter."

"You and I? We don't matter."

GG's right hand begins to radiate with a piercing, ethereal, violet light.

"This?"

"This is significant."

GG steps right in front the camera for emphasis. She points to the violet light and laughs.

"This is a child's soul. I colored it in so that you could see it."

"Do you know what I do with these?"

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber
"I'm going to hazard a guess and say that you eat them."
---
Tirin's Room
Elena sits down next to Tirin and falls back onto the bed. If he checked, that seed of rage would be back in her mind.
"No. It feels like a drank a whole bottle of tequila last night."
---
Loading Bay
The van with Meddy in it arrives at Umbrella Corp. They drive into the loading bay and the door opens. There are boxes everywhere being delivered to different places. Elena's plotclone gets out of the car along with the two members of the U.S.S., they put away their guns.
"Do you have any questions?" asks Elena's plotclone as she began walking towards an elevator.

[Lady Serpentine]

He is checking, yes. He tries to remove it again. With extreme prejudice, this time.

"Do you remember what we talked about last night, after I brought you back from the medical bay?

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
The seed disappears again.
"Yes. And I told you we have it under control. At least that's what they tell me and I have no reason to believe otherwise."

[Beans]

Loading Bay
The van with Meddy in it arrives at Umbrella Corp. They drive into the loading bay and the door opens. There are boxes everywhere being delivered to different places. Elena's plotclone gets out of the car along with the two members of the U.S.S., they put away their guns.
"Do you have any questions?" asks Elena's plotclone as she began walking towards an elevator.
Um, yeah... like... why don't I remember anything between high school and now?
Do you have any idea why I'm like this?

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

The violet light abruptly vanishes as GG snaps her fingers together.

"No, no, no. I don't eat souls."

"They're waaaay too sweet and are reeeeally fattening."

"A girl has gotta maintain her figure, y'know."

GG turns her back to the camera and takes a few steps away from it, hips promiscuously swaying back and forth with each step. Her tail flicks to and fro in an oddly captivating waltz.

"I drain them of their power and play with them."

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli ponders this, rocking a bit back and forth while thinking. Her wings unconsciously make sure that she doesn't fall while she does so. Eventually she writes her answer.

"[I do not know... All I remember is waking up and meeting Meddy, Traversy and the others and then I woke up here.]"

She looks puppy-eyed at Jennifer, hoping it isn't a problem.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

"I do. You remember I said I removed where some of the same rage Zero feels was corrupting you? Well, despite you being rubbed with holy water, and then drinking some of the stuff, combined with me removing the thing, it was back just now. I've excised it again, but if we don't figure out how to get rid of it for good, I'm worried it'll get stronger, just like the source."


He pauses for a moment.

"Look, I'm not trying to interfere, I'm just worried about you. And it can't hurt to try to do something about this, can it?"

[Mindfreak]

Rec Room

Meli ponders this, rocking a bit back and forth while thinking. Her wings unconsciously make sure that she doesn't fall while she does so. Eventually she writes her answer.

"[I do not know... All I remember is waking up and meeting Meddy, Traversy and the others and then I woke up here.]"
Rec Room
She looks puppy-eyed at Jennifer, hoping it isn't a problem.
She writes things down and then looks up.
"Meddy? You mean a girl with a robot spider-like bottom half? We've got her here as well!"

Um, yeah... like... why don't I remember anything between high school and now?
Do you have any idea why I'm like this?

"I have a.....theory. Something, or you yourself unknowingly, teleported you out of this base and somehow got amnesia from it. You should be able to remember stuff if you see things you recongize. At least, that's what I think."
She steps into the elevator, waiting for Meddy to do so as well.
---
GG's Chamber
The guy is not salvating at his screen because of her movement.
"Are you going somewhere with this? Because we both know you can't escape from us right now. Even if you got out of that room, you still have to get past the Red Queen."
---
Tirin's Room
Elena gives Tirin a blank stare for a moment.
"Tirin, how would you like to be a scientist?"

[Beans]

[Elevator]
She frowns, following.
This place looks vaguely familiar... uh... I guess...

[Lady Serpentine]

[Floor 11 - Tirin's Room]

Tirin blinks confusedly.

"Er... That sounds interesting, actually, but what does to have to do with what we were talking about?"

[Mindfreak]

Elevator
The doors close and Elena swipes her keykard in the nescessary place. She then selects Floor 11.
"That's good. I believe we have someone very familiar that you will recongize here as well. Her name is Meli."
---
Tirin's Room
"Tirin, you can help us understand Zero better. After your testing, you can stay on with us and help me with the other kids."

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

"I just felt like sharing."

"You, in particular, might find that information veeeery important."

"Take that as you will."

A pause.

She's thinking about something...

"Now that I've shared something about myself, it's your turn!"

Fun.

[Beans]

[Elevator]
She thinks.
Sounds kinda familiar... yeah, I remember that name...

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

"All right. Sounds like a plan."

[Mina Kobold]

She writes things down and then looks up.
"Meddy? You mean a girl with a robot spider-like bottom half? We've got her here as well!"

Meli's eyes widens and Jennifer may be a bit startled as the girl jumps repeatedly in joy and even keeps looking happy after her inevitable tripping and falling.
After a while she calms down enough to write a reply.

"[Yes! That her! Can see her Can? !!!!!lllll.]"

Maybe they should ask her to sit down before telling her that her friend is still alive next time...

[Mindfreak]

Elevator
"What do you remember about her?"
The elevator is still going down.
---
Tirin's Room
Elena smiled.
"Great! You're going to love it here, they pay you well, especially if you work on the 11th floor."
She hugs him.
"It's going to be great to have someone to help me!"
---
GG's Chamber
A heavy sigh is heard from the man.
"Well, I have nothing better to do. I'm David. That's about it. Unless you care that I can levitate objects with my mind."
---
Rec Room
Jennifer nodded.
"She should be down here in a few minutes. She'll be brought in here first."

[Beans]

[Elevator]
Uh... wings... weird feet that were hard to stand on... I think she had one eye?

((Deadtime/phonetime for a while.))

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

Tirin is hugged. He hugs her back, and smiles.

"Thanks, Elena. It'll be nice to work with you, too."

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

"That's it or that's all you want to tell me?"

"I guess that the next question I should ask is 'Who do you work for?'"

GG heads over to the bed and lies upon it, kicking her legs in the air.

[Mindfreak]

Elevator
"Would you like to see her? She wants to see you badly."
--
Tirin's Room
"I've never had anyone to help me down here before. It's going to be great."
She continues to hug him. She likes hugs too. She alos loves being scratched on the back and the head.
--
GG's Chamber
"That's all I can tell you about myself. And I work for the Umbrella Corporation."

[Beans]

(Elevator)
She nods. Sure, especially if she remembers me.
Meddy smiles.

[Lady Serpentine]

((Does he have any way to figure that out, other than that she's part cat?))

[Tirin's Room]

In that case, they'll probably continue to hug for a while, until one of them remembers that they're supposed to be getting to testing.

Tirin is also doing a wide emotional scan of the nearby area. What does he find?

"Well, I'm glad that you'll finally have some company then. It should be nice for me, too; you seem like you'll be a good person to work with."

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

"So, Dave, you guys kidnap 'special' people for some reason?"

She implied that she is a person! Hah!

"Did I eat the wrong person or something?"

GG's tail attempts to snag one of the cows by the neck and lead it towards her.

[Mindfreak]

Elevator
The doors opened at Floor 11
"Come on, sees waiting in the Rec Room."
She begins to walk.
---
GG's Chamber
The cow tries to back away.
"We need to figure out your genetic make up so we can make the world a better place."
---
Tirin's Room
Elena gives a purring sound whenever his hand reaches between her shoulder blades.
"I hope so......can you scratch my back?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

"Sure."

He will proceed to do so, being very careful not to poke her with his claws.

After a bit, he'll say "Isn't there some kind of testing that I'm supposed to be doing?", though he won't disengage until/unless she does.

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
Elena purrs like a cat, her head rubs against Tirin's chest.
"Testing is in a couple hours. Do you want to go outside before it starts?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

"Sounds nice. By the way, are you feeling any better now that that... thing... is out of your head?"

He continues scratching her back, and brings his tail up to rub behind her ears.

(And you never did say what the area emotional scan found)

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

"You're not really all that great of a liar."

"The sole reason you want to study me is because you want to gain power."

"Baby, you know there are easier ways."

GG will attempt to slowly tug the cow closer, playing with her victim.

Its fear, her pleasure.

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
"I do feel better!"
When he scratches behind her ears with his tail she purrs even louder and stops rubbing her head against his chest. Her own tail curls up.
The area emotional scan yields a large range of emotions, but no one else has that tiny seed of rage.
--
GG's Chamber
"I told you what I know."
The cow doesn't know what the heck she's doing!
"Mooo?" it asked confused-ly.

[Lady Serpentine]

"Good!"

Tirin continues what he's doing as far as scratching her back and rubbing behind her ears.

[Beans]

[Elevator]
She follows out to the floor and rec room.
((Bleh, phone is dumb.))

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
Elena continues to purr loudly.
"Purrrrrr, you're great at this Tirin!"
((What are Tirin's facial features like?))
---
Rec Room
Elena leads Meddy to the Rec room where Meli is.
"There she is...."

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

"Is there anything else you are allowed to talk about Mr. Classified?"

"I reeeeally don't like to dine in ssssilencccce."

Eep!

Something tells me that things are about to get fairly bloody!

And GG is unleashing pheromones into the air that might make the cows far more docile than they were before!

[Lady Serpentine]

His smile gets, if possible, wider.

"Thanks Elana."

He keeps up the scratching and rubbing, basking in her emotional field.

He tries to share the feeling of said basking with her.

((Tirin has the aforementioned snake fangs, though they don't show when his mouth is closed, and are retractable if needed. His eyes are green-black, and his hair is a dark brown. Do you need anything else in the way of descriptive features?))

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber
"Well, what do you want to talk about? Sports? Movies? What?"
The cow that she grabbed tries to lick her face.
---
Tirin's Room
Pure joy getting even more pure joy?
This equals greatness!
"No. Stop. We can't do this."*
She pulls away from him.
"Relationships are against company policy....."
((Nope, that's good))

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli sees her friend from the Lab and flutters her wings to jump and hug the spidery woman with not only her arm but her wings as well.

Once she has hugged her for a bit she jumps down and excitedly scribbles on her notepad and shows it to Meddy.

"[Meddy! I am very glad to see you! I thought you had all died or something even worse! Are you allright? They have been wonderful to me here!]"

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber - 11th Floor]

"Let's talk politics." :smalltongue:

"Let's talk music."

"What do you like listening to?"

Just then, GG's great maw opens proudly displaying those countless rows of pearly, jagged teeth. Her own long, violet, tongue will shoot out of her mouth and attempt to lasso the cow by winding about its neck! If this is successful, GG will attempt to cram the cow's head into her mouth utilizing only her violet tongue and grey tail.

Look mommy! No hands!

[Beans]

[Rec]
She hugs back as a jolt of memory hits.
"Meli! It's great to see you! I remember a bit now..."
I'm okay, and I'm glad you're okay."
She grins.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

He'll disengage and stop the scratching, rubbing and emotional feedback loop as soon she says "No.". Or maybe a bit sooner; he was intensely focused on her emotions after all, and would have ceased as soon he felt any discomfort from her.

"All right."


((What's the * about after Elana says "We can't do this"?))

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber
"I'm listening to Taylor Swift."
The cow is eaten. The other cow flips out!

"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that if we ever had kids they'd mostly likely turn out to be abominations....."

"You have a point. Of course, we do happen to be in one of the most accepting cities in the world, and the one with probably the most mages capable of changing one or both of our forms temporarily, but it's still a good point."

And one he won't argue about any further; he's going to go along with her in this.

He is using his empathic abilities to see what she feels like, though. If he's messed up her good mood, he's going to want to be able to do something about it.

((That's fine. I just wanted to make sure that you hadn't accidentally left something out))

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

Oh, ol' GG isn't done with that cow yet!

She's going to swallow it alive in one go. It'll be as disturbing as can be. Not a fluid motion either. It might take about 30 seconds or so for GG to finish.

I hope that Dave has a strong stomach. GG sure as heck does.

What's worse is that the cow will likely expire via asphyxiation instead of just mercifully having its head bitten off.

Eew!

Repugnant freak!

And now, GG looks like someone who has just had a cow. Literally.

"I'm into Frank Sinatra myself."

Meli smiles and scribbles some more on her notepad.

"[Remember? Did you forget something s?]"

She looks thoughtful for a second before scribbling a few words seriously, as if she just realised something very grave.

"[I don't think I can remember anything form before we met...]"

[Beans]

[Rec Room]
She frowns.
I remember my life up until the end of high school...
... You feeling okay?

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli nods and scribbles an answer.

"[I think so, it is a worry for later. What is a Hy-School?]"

She doesn't seem too concerned with her amnesia for now, at worst she seems to be putting it aside for later. Right now she want to know more about Meddy, the spider-girl is fascinating to her.

Meli nods and scribbles an answer.

It's... it's school that you go to from when you're 13 to 17, basically.
She's glad to see Meli again.

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli nods and makes a mental note to remember that. She writes something more.

"[Are they good memories? I hope they are]"

She yawns soundlessly as she holds the notepad up, but it's too interesting to sleep now!

(Ironically, deadtime for sleeps.)

[Beans]

[Rec Room]
They're okay...

I'm just glad to see you again.
She smiles.

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
Elena's mouth goes into a perfect 'O' when she realizes that he's right.*
He would see through her emotions that she wasn't unhappy, she was actually being cheered up by his words.
She turned around and hugged him.
"You're right!"
---
GG's Chamber
"Yeah, Frank Sinatra is pretty good."
There's sounds of retching.
"Sorry, that's Bill puking. He's new here."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

Tirin hugs Elana back, and starts scratching her back again, once more being careful not to hurt her with his claws.

If she's okay with that, he'll also go back to rubbing behind her ears with his tail.

At that point, if she's still made no objections, he'll start the emotional feedback loop* up again.

*Basking in her emotional field, then feeding that feeling back to her, making her emotional field more intense, etc..

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
The purring starts again. Unless Tirin decides he wants to do something other than scratch Elena's ears and her back then this will probably go until he needs to start testing.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

It probably will, in that case; Tirin has already forgotten their plans to go outside, except to say:

"Do you still want to go out on the roof?"

He's fine with it ether way, especially as nothing says they can't do this out there, especially since cats tend to like being in the sun.

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
She nods.
"Yeah! Let's go! It's a perfect 75 Degrees outside. No chance of clouds or rain with a slight breeze."
A lot of people are going to get excited about it.Doctor McNinja
She will get up and begin to walk out the room.
"Here, I'll let you change in private."

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

"Hi Bill!"

GG waves at the camera.

"So, how many people are watching me right now?"

"And does anyone want a nice, leather jacket, perchance?"

GG might be not be joking right now.

She's creepy.

And that cow's corpse is probably still easily distinguishable even inside of GG.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

"'Kay. I'll just be a second, then."

Once she's out of the room, he'll press the green button, quickly change into a fresh set of clothes (less than a minute this time), and open the door.

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
She'll lead him upstairs, through the elevator, all the way to the roof. She seems to sniff the air for a moment and then runs over and takes a plant out of the ground. Tirin might recognize it as catnip.
"Wonder how this got here...."
She threw it off the side of the roof, catnip did nothing for her. She sat down on a bench.
"That sun feels nice....."
GG's Chamber
"Just me. Bill's the new intern, he was dropping off my burger and coffee. Which I'm eating right now. It takes a lot to make me lose my appetite."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

Tirin will sit down next to her, and return to rubbing behind her ears. Depending on how awkward it would be because of the construction of the bench, and the way she's sitting, he may or may not go back to scratching her back. Whether or not he does, he continues the feedback loop.

Unless she just wants to sit there in the sun, without any of that. He'll go with her.

(Deadtiming for a while)

[Mindfreak]

Roof
Elena simply hops onto his lap for easier back scratching. The purring starts again and she is in heaven.
"You're the best, Tirin."

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

"That's a rather admirable quality."

Respect!

"I hope Bill doesn't come around when I'm really hungry. He wouldn't be able to sleep for a few days after witnessing that!"

That statement isn't completely true. He might sleep forever if he gets too close to GG when she is famished.

Wait...

Those were GG's best table manners?!

"Will someone be watching me while I nap?" :smallconfused:

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

(I'm sort of back for the moment, though I'll need to really deadtime after this post)
Tirin happily lets her climb into his lap. If he had cat in him, he'd be purring too. Though, come to think of it, those claws look rather like those of a lion...

"Thanks! I could say the same about you."

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber
"I will. I have insomnia so I'll be watching you 24/6. I get Sundays off."
A bit of silence.
"Hey, I know you're pretty much the personification of gluttony and all, but do you want to try and eat a lion? We got one that's just taking up space...."
---
Roof
Elena purrs and licks his nose. Her tongue is kinda sand-papery like a cat's as well.

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

A lion?

Wow!

What a swanky joint!

Exotic creatures being fed to prisoners.

Tasty feline flesh.

"Why did you guys get a lion?"

"And yes. I would relish the experience of eating a lion."

If Dave keeps this up, he might be able to approach GG without fear of being gobbled up!

GG focuses on the second cow trapped in the chamber.

"Hey! Dave! Do you want to see something cool?"

"Here, Bessy! C'mon now! Don't be shy!"

Such a quiet, reassuring voice from such a downright vile beast!

...This character frightens me.

Brace yourself, lad. This ain't gonna be pretty.

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber
The cow stops flipping out and approaches GG. She then gives her a friendly lick on the cheek.
"We have a whole zoo here. We need DNA from more then one animal, so once we got DNA from the lion we were going to give it to some zoo. We also have tigers, bears, elephants, panthers, cheetahs, zebras, horses, cows, dolphins, sharks, deer, antelope, gazelle, gorillas, orangutans, and many more. We get them from people and then get DNA and then do whatever with them. Want me to send in the lion right now?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

Tirin also begins to purr, and licks her nose, too. His tongue, though thin and lightly forking at the tip, is also somewhat cat-like in texture. He really is a mish-mash, isn't he?

[Mindfreak]

Roof
That makes her purr loudly and her tail curled around his. She licks his cheek with her tongue, her cat like instincts were popping up.
Tirin might believe that now was a good time to kiss her.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

Tirin does, in fact, believe that now would be a good time to kiss her, and does so.

[Mindfreak]

Roof
It is safe to say that kisses occur.
When said kisses stop, Elena looks at her watch.
"Come on, Tirin, we need to go get you ready for testing."
She got up and held out her hand to help him up.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

Tirin is helped up. He'll stop scratching and rubbing for now, though he continues the feedback loop at a low level - just enough to keep them right around where they are now - unless she notices and asks him to stop, or her emotions about it change.

He also does a brief empathic scan, to make sure that thing in her head isn't back yet.

"All right."

[Mindfreak]

Roof > Tirin's Room
It isn't back yet.
Her own tail tries to curl around his and she tries to hold onto his hand.
"Let's go."
She seemed to be very happy.
She will then lead him back to his room where there would be a skin tight jumpsuit on his dresser. Several in fact.
"Do you want help putting it on?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

Tirin curls his tail with hers, and gladly continues to hold onto her hand.

He also appears to be, and is, very happy.

"If you want."

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
She grins and undressed him to his underwear. If he isn't wearing underwear then hopefully he has a skin sheath. She then helps him put on the skin tight jumpsuit. She does this all without tearing anything. She's done things like this before.
"Well, you're good to go......"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

He's probably wearing underwear. You'd be the one to know though, you stocked his dresser.

"So let's."

[Mina Kobold]

[Rec Room]
They're okay...

I'm just glad to see you again.
She smiles.

Meli hugs her again and scribbles a quick reply.

"[Glad to see yu you too!l]"

As she looks up again her mechanical eye makes a clicking sound, causing Meli to look around confusedly before holding her paw over her normal eye and silently gasp before writing another comment.

"[I think my eye just drew a picture of you!]"

Evidently, mechanical eyes have cameras.

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room > Testing Room
I don't know who wouldn't put underwear in the dresser.
From now on, underwear, t-shirts, and jeans in the dresser are canon.
She holds onto his claw again and her tail curls around his once more. She leads him to the Testing Room where she stops outside.
"This is where I have to stop. I won't be seeing you for another 5 hours."
She gives him a kiss on the cheek.
"Do good, okay?"
When he goes inside of the room, he will see a man waiting for him. It is a large white room with tons of different equipment in it.

[Beans]

Meli hugs her again and scribbles a quick reply.

"[Glad to see yu you too!l]"

As she looks up again her mechanical eye makes a clicking sound, causing Meli to look around confusedly before holding her paw over her normal eye and silently gasp before writing another comment.

Meddy blinks.
... That's... interesting...
No longer cold, she doffs her jacket.
What's it like here?

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

GG doesn't know what to make of all this.

These people know that they're handling a scary monster, yet they take steps to make it more powerful with the intention of appeasing it instead of weakening it so that it couldn't give them much trouble.

They haven't pumped the cows full of sedatives.

They haven't mixed pheromones into the air.

To what ends?

Guess that's not too important right now.

Nope.

Just gotta get rid of this cow before the lion shows up.

The pale flesh atop GG's cavernous stomach slowly splits apart up the center of her body. The dingy bands of cloth which GG claims are her shirt (though no evidence exists to lend credibility to this absurd notion) rips apart around the abdominal region.

A thick, transparent film of hereto unforeseen cells can be observed. This material seems to serve as GG's digestive tract.

It is much shorter than that of a normal human, consisting of merely six bags (one filled only with blood and bit of bone that are bobbing up and down in it) with a plethora of winding black tubes attached to them at odd angles.

These appear to be tubes appear to be jiggling about, as though they were moving.

Probably because they are...

Five tubes detach from another organ linked to one of GG's multifarious corrosive vats.

These black, pulsating tubes slowly slither towards the cow to the rhythm of GG's heartbeat.

Thump.

Thump.

Thump.

They, with the greatest care one could fathom, attempt to twist around the cow's lower legs, right next to its hooves.

All the while, GG attempts to stroke the top of the cow's head and whisper kind little phrases to it.

"Aren't you just the cutest little darling! Yes you are! Yes you are!"

"Who's a good girl?"

Four legs, five wriggling chutes.

What does the odd one out do?

It adopts an aggressive position near the cow's udder.

And it waits. It waits, like a true predator, for the perfect time to strike.

This chute, without warning, rears up and attempts to latch onto the cow's udder. It will then attempt to suck the cow down into one of GG's digesive sacs. The four tubes grappling the cow's legs attempt to tear the cow's front and back off the ground, elevating them at such an angle that, with the amount of suction being applied to the cow's underside, its spine will likely be snapped with a sickening crack.

GG's tongue rolls out of her mouth and attempts to give the cow a friendly lick as the tube tasked with introducing the cow to G G's insides increases its suction, likely slowly slurping the cow down into GG's gut (and probably breaking its legs and ribs in the process).

The tubes disengage the cow and return to their original positions.

Her skin doesn't return to its original position.

This is done for Umbrella's benefit. They can study this aspect of GG from afar.

Alternatively, GG could just be trying to gross out Dave.

"Mmmm."

"Delish."

"You can send in that lion now, if you think you have the stomach for it."

GG starts giggling madly.

Stomach for it! Funny!

And that cow GG just consumed is probably starting to melt by now...

Have fun studying it, Dave.

Jennifer comes back into the room with four glasses of sweet, delicious, fresh squeezed lemonade. She places one in front of Meddy and then one in front of Meli. She hands one to Elena.

Not just one lion comes in.
2 lions come in. They begin to circle GG, growling.

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

Two lions!

Oh boy!

This is going to get fairly bloody!

GG's great grey tail swooshes gracefully through the air as she attempts to whap one of the lions on the top of its head. It'll dart away if (and when) the lion attempts to nip at it.

She's playing with one of the lions. She's attempting to coax it closer to the side of the bed...

The first lion nips at her tail, bring drawn closer to the bed.
The other lion pounces at GG! Claws extended!

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber - Floor 11]

With reflexes far more swifter than that of any human (and strength that makes gorillas seem like babies in comparison), the lithe GG attempts to catch (that's right, catch) the pouncing lion by the neck and hold it in the air to the side of the bed while simultaneously attempting to ensnare the other lion with her tail and drag it so close to her head that she could bite its head off!

In fact, that's exactly what she'll try to do!

Her jaw swings open like it were attached to a door hinge! Then, without further ceremony, she goes in for the kill!

Rawr!

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli smiles and writes another enthusiastic answer to Meddy.

"[Lots better than the other place. They gave me a room and clothes here!]"

She opens her wings a bit to show off the red shirt and jeans she are wearing, certainly more clothes-like than the gown from the Lab.

She takes the lemonade and sips it when Jennifer comes back, looking around for a place to put it when the question of food comes up.

[Beans]

[Rec]
Meddy blinks.
Oooh, those are nice. I could go for a brassiere and a shirt... don't think I'll ever have to worry about pants again though.
She reaches out to gently touch her friend's avian wing.
These are cool wings.
I keep forgetting to mention her metal teeth. She has 'em.

There is a coffee table.
"So are you guys hungry?"

The lion is held in the air while the other when is eaten. It scratches at GG.

I sorta am... you hungry, Meli?
She looks back to the friend whose wing she's gently stroking.

[Mina Kobold]

Meli will put her lemonade on the table, then, and write an answer to Meddy.

"[Thanks! They feel a bit odd, but they are fun too]"

She nods at Jennifer and writes on the corner of the notepad paper.

"[A bit]"

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

Well, GG's arm is cut up by the lions scratching. She doesn't seem all that upset about it, though.

She actually seems oddly pleased.

When the prey fights back, it is always more enjoyable for the predator.

GG will attempt to bite the formerly pouncing lion's tail. From there, she will attempt to slowly gulp it down. Inch by inch.

The more it struggles, the better.

...

This is a really creepy character.

[Beans]

Rec Room

Meli will put her lemonade on the table, then, and write an answer to Meddy.

"[Thanks! They feel a bit odd, but they are fun too]"

She nods at Jennifer and writes on the corner of the notepad paper.

"[A bit]"
Meddy takes a few moments to convert two pairs of her gloves into fingerless gloves, stashing the non-fingerless pairs in the jacket she's put on her mechaspiderbutt.
With her leghands now more dextrous, she uses one to add to the gentle wing-petting.
Your feathers are kinda tickly. She giggles.

A vent near the lower-rear hatch on her mecha-abdomen hisses quietly. If gas sensors are about, it seems to be regular carbon dioxide with traces of methane and urea.

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli snickers with the same lack of sound as usual and writes a reply.

"[I am a bit ticklish, so it makes sense that I have tickle-feathers]"

Her other wing most likely wouldn't feel tickly, being all bat-like and all.
She writes another reply while pointing at Meddy's leghands.

"[You got all those hands, though. That must make it much easier to do stuff. ^_^]"

Certainly isn't easy to carry much with one arm.

And as for what I'm hungry for... She turns to the other woman. Not sure...

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

Excuse me for a second.

Bllleeeccckkkk!

GG has a smug, satisfied smile painted upon her face.

The skin around her abdominal region closes up, hiding the pair of lions from sight.

GG rolls onto her side and sighs.

"Yes. Yes I did."

"You guys sure know how to keep me happy. I'll give you that much."

She raises her arms and stretches. A small drop of her blue blood runs drips onto the floor like a single globule of rain.

"I think I could get used to this."

GG sticks out her tongue and begins to lap up warm lion blood right off of the floor.

The only way this could get any better would be if she could get some sunlight in here...

"Alright, I'm sending in a scientist to scan you. If you don't eat him then you can choose what you eat. Eat him and all you're going to get is cows. Drugged to the point where they think they're giant lolipops."

Rec Room
"How about some steak? Or some burgers? Baked Macaroni and Cheese perhaps?"

She smiles.
Mac & cheese... that's tempting.
Does that sound good, Meli? She smiles at her friend.

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli ponders the question and writes down an answer.

"[Do you have fruit? I think I like fruit best...]"

She smiles nervously, she isn't sure if they eat fruit at the Umbrella Corp.

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

GG just sorta stares at the scientist in disbelief for a moment.

STARES.

...

"Is the haz suit really necessary? It's not like I'm contaminated or anything."

"I mean, it's just one more reason why I should eat him. He'd probably be pretty crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside."

Kind of like a Snickers bar!

I'd imagine that the scientist would be freaking out right now.

"Don't worry. I'm probably not going to eat you."

"Probably."

That's more ominous than it is comforting, GG.

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber
The scientist placed the briefcase on the bed and opened it. He retrieved the long pencil like scanner. He began to run it all around GG, probably tickling her due to the rays it uses.

Rec Room
"Whatever you want we can get you. What kinda fruit do you like?"

[Beans]

[Rec]
If there are chairs and Meli doesn't have one yet, Meddy pulls one over for her friend.
She finds that if she turns a chair backwards, she can sort of sit on it.

If no chairs, she just stands with the lion-footed elf-gal, still petting her wing.

With so many hands, it's no wonder she likes to be physically close to people.

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli will sit down if Meddy finds a chair and write a thanks to her.

"[Thanks!]"

And then ponder about the fruit. She scribbles something before erasing it and mouthing some words in what is probably Elven before shaking her head and simply drawing something.

As she holds it up, Jennifer may be able to see that it looks mostly like a citrus fruit of sort, most likely an orange, and a peach.

They're a bit clumsily drawn, but they shouldn't be incomprehensible.

[Beans]

[Rec]
She keeps petting, watching her draw.
... Orange and a peach, right?

[Mindfreak]

Rec Room
Jennifer walked out of the room.
And then she came back with a pitcher of lemonade, a bowl of oranges and peaches, and a whole thing of baked macaroni and cheese. Suffice to say that she had this all on a cart which also had bowls, plates, and utensils on it.
"Take whatever you want."

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

In appearance, GG is remotely human.

In anatomy, however...

GG's cells are not of uniform composition. Some are carbon based. Others silicon. Still others are based on elements of a foreign nature.

The cells are very much alive. They seem oddly aware of the events which are transpiring at any given moment. The hottest parts of GG are her head and core. Her core is approximately 129.3 degrees Farenheit, a temperature which would denature the blood we know. Her head is exactly 100 degrees Farenheit, while the rest of her body adheres to human standards (98.6 degrees Farenheit). She seems to be breathing at a rate somewhat faster than that of a normal human. Her brain is completely dissimilar to that of a human. Saying that it is a complex machine is more than just an understatement. She seems to possess nonstandard amounts of organs. She has within her body at this moment 3 functioning lungs, 2 beating hearts, 6 stomachs, an insane amount of black, tar-like goop, white blood vessels, a human nervous system, and a heaping ton of muscle.

But again, these are not organs as we understand them.

It is almost like GG is just one giant cell formed out of thousands of smaller cells.

Weird.

But she's laughing all the same.

That does tickle!

Meli nods to Meddy, that was what they were called! When the food comes she picks out several oranges and peaches before carefully picking the oranges with her bear hand. Her bat-wing holding the oranges clumsily.

Her wing continues to be petted, which probably feels nice. But it's difficult to tell when Meli's been super happy ever since Meddy arrived.

When she have picked the oranges, she writes a question to Meddy.

"Do you remember what happened to the others? Are they here too?"

[Beans]

[Rec]
Eating with her normal hands, she uses her aft legs to stay steady on the chair as her foreleg hands petpetpet.
I remember a guy who was real messed-up and a... robot ball guy... dunno what happened to them...

[GG's Chamber]

"WHAT?!"

"I don't even have a nickname, do I?"

"Is that all I am to you guys? A nameless science project?"

"Heck, even inanimate objects get decent names!"

She's not very happy that she doesn't have a name right here right now. She's pouting.

Probably won't be long before she starts throwing a fit.

Some of her peculiar, acidic, blue blood has spilled onto the floor.

That stuff contains DNA, right Mr. Science Man?

If I were him, I'd take a sample of that blood and then make like a tree and get out of there!

[Mindfreak]

GG's Chamber
"-krrt-Dave calls you Clarissa, we just haven't decided on your scientific name yet-krrt-"
He takes out a Q-Tip and swab up the blood. He puts it in the vial and then puts the vial in the case. He then takes out what appears to be a PDA and handed it to her.
"-krrt-You just select the animal you want to eat on that particular day and that is what you'll get. You can even choose in advance for other days by using the calendar. You can even choose different animals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner."
It has every animal you can find in a zoo in it. The scientist waves goodbye and then leaves the room.

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

"Oh..."

"Um..."

"Thanks?"

She didn't expect the scientist to respond like that...

And she has no clue about how to operate the pda.

She's not tech savvy.

"Good, you didn't eat him. By the way, do you have a name?"

[The Alexandrian]

[GG's Chamber]

GG sheepishly rubs the back of her head.

"I can't truthfully say that I do have a name."

"I used to have a name, when I wasn't alone like I am now."

"But since I'm alone, I no longer have a name."

"'S funny, I know."

If by funny she means confusing, then yes. Yes that is rather "funny."

"C-Clarissa."

She says her name as though it will jump up and bite her nose off.

She winces as though expecting to be struck.

"Clarissa."

"Clarissa!"

She's got her own name! Oh most joyous of days!

"I like that name."

Its not just that name anymore. Now it is her name.

She feels warmth inside.

Not just heat.

Is this...

Is this what they call happiness?

Clarissa smiles.

...

Maybe so.

[Mindfreak]

Clarissa's Chamber
"Clarissa, would you mind if we asked you some questions?"

[The Alexandrian]

[Clarissa's Chamber]

"N-no. I don't mind at all."

Why were they being so nice to her?

She's a monster thing!

This...

This doesn't make sense!

They want power, but they aren't just taking it.

They're asking for it.

Why? Why not just take? Is it not easier that way?

[Mindfreak]

Clarissa's Chamber
"How long have you been alive for?"

[The Alexandrian]

[Clarissa's Chamber]

Hmm...

"As an individual?"

"As an individual, I've been alive for...two days? Maybe?"

Wow! She's young!

Sort of...

[Mindfreak]

Clarissa's Chamber
"Wow, you're pretty young. Do you remember anything before that?"

[The Alexandrian]

[Clarissa's Chamber]

"Before this..."

Clarissa's face scrunches up as she remembers.

"I was a part of Valaira. Before that, I was a part of Master."

That's vague!

Does she really expect Dave to know who Valaira and Master are?

[Mindfreak]

Clarissa's Chamber
Have you regretted anything you've done in the past two days?"
The doors hiss open and a Security Personal walks in with a cooler. Assuming that all goes well, the man drops off the cooler near Clarissa. The man will then leave.
Inside the cooler is water in water bottles.
Clarissa could still kill the guy though.

Rec Room
Elena looks at the two girls.
"Girls, I need you to tell me everything you can about the others that were with you. We want to try to find them and bring them back here. They can do a lot of good. The differences in their body's make up could cure diseases."

[The Alexandrian]

[Clarissa's Chamber]

Clarissa won't make a single movement against the security guard.

She seems like she's petrified.

Her mind is locked in a conflict between good and evil. A struggle between Valaira and GG.

She seems empty. Vacant.

Eventually, she shakes it off.

"David..."

"I won't be shriven by you."

"I did what I was designed to do."

"I took life."

"They weren't the right lives..."

"But it wasn't..."

"I'm not..."

"I..."

"I..."

"I..."

I think Dave broke Clarissa...

[Lady Serpentine]

Testing Room

"See you later, then."

With that, Tirin will walk into the room and say "Hello."

[Mindfreak]

Clarissa's Chamber
"It's okay. No one really cares about who you've fought with."
Clarissa might notice that there is indeed blankets on her bed. These green blankets has been around the entire time.
"It's getting late.....we'll try to continue the questions tomorrow, okay?"
--
Testing Room
"Name please?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Testing Room]

"Tirin."

[The Alexandrian]

[Clarissa's Chamber]

Clarissa just stares into the empty space in front of her for another moment.

...

Soon after, she takes a firm hold of the green bed coverings and drapes them over the whole of her body (including her head).

...

She tries to sleep.
She really does.

She fights to lose herself in her dreams.
She gives it her best shot.

But Clarissa only finds tears coming to her eyes.

Was this sadness? Regret? Shame, even?

Clarissa doesn't want these emotions. She wishes they'd just go away.

Still, they press on.
And on.
And on.

...

All through the night, Clarissa lies in the bed, silently sobbing.

She doesn't understand why.

Dave might not pick up on Clarissa's sudden rush of emotion. She's trying to hide it the best she can.

This is the only way she knows how to cope with her emotions.

She bites them back, swallows them, and holds them deep inside...

[Lady Serpentine]

((How strong would these be, Alexandrian? Tirin has a constant scan in place when he's sleeping. If they're even moderately strong, then he should be woken up.))

[Mina Kobold]

Rec Room

Meli nods in agreement with Meddy, but writes a comment.

"[Weren't there a crab-person there too? Or was she not crab, I didn't notice...]"

She looks ponderous when Elena asks them to describe the others, writing and erasing until she have a pretty good description.

"[There was Traverly, he was a talking ball with a square on it and a. He said something about keys and boards. Then there was Myr... Myrs-something. We callt him Kend. He couldn't speak either and his limbs were all moved around. I think he had two left legs, and three arms on one side. His eyes were all over his face. And then there was the crab-person. I think she had tentacles. Looked really sad.]"

Meanwhile, her wing continues to be petted. she subconsciously leans a bit closer to the nice petting. Maybe she's part cat too?

[Mindfreak]

Testing Room
The man checked the list and then wrote something down. He got out these plunger like objects.
"Hold out your arms."
(Do you wish to skip the testing?)

Hmmm... yeah, that's right... Traverly meant a keyboard, though, that's a thing with letters on it where you press the letters and they come on a screen if you connect it to something.
Like... I think Traverly woulda let you use a keyboard if we found it to type your words on his screen if we couldn't find paper and pens for writing... that was nice of him.

[Lady Serpentine]

((Depends. What happens if I do?))

[Mindfreak]

((Tirin will be run through many physical tests that may tire him out.))
---
Clarissa's Chamber
"Clarissa, are you okay?"

[Lady Serpentine]

((Since I'd guess he has to do that anyway, let's go ahead and do so.

Also, is there any way to do stuff last night at the same time as this is going on, as, if Tirin felt what GG Clarissa was feeling, he would have woken up, and gone looking for the source?))


[Tirin - Testing Room, Present]

We skipped the testing, so I'd guess that he can try to find Elana now. If so, he will.

[Tirin - Tirin's Room, Last Night]

He wakes up, feeling that someone or something nearby is a mess.

He'll try to find the person.

[Mindfreak]

Testing Room
Once Tirin goes outside of the testing room, he'll see that Elena was waiting for him.
"You did well! The scientists are already excited about the possibilities!" she says with a smile. Little would Tirin know that what the scientists were excited about was all the possibilities for super soldiers and experimentations.
"Wanna go grab some lunch?"
Last Night
Tirin will be able to find the source quite easily. He will eventually come to some large blast doors labeled:
'Only Authorized Personal Beyond This Point'
There's a button nearby that is labeled: 'Open Doors' and hazard suits are nearby as well.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Testing Room - Present]

"Sure."

He'll try to hug her for a bit, too.

[Last Night]

At this point, Tirin will try to eat the bad stuff, and replace it with mild contentment.

[Mindfreak]

Halls > Tirin's Room
Well, it's hard to hug and walk so he probably only got one arm around her. Her tail goes to wrap around his as she lead him to his room.
"Just wait here while I go grab the food, okay?"
She leaves and comes back with a picnic basket.
"Come on! Let's go up to the roof!"
She held out her hand.
He might notice that the seed of rage is back and it's bigger then before.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

He does. It completely shatters any thoughts of hugs, picnics, or any of the other stuff planned for after the testing.

"Elana, have you been dealing with Zero again?"

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
She nodded.
"Yeah, I had to go give him a follow up injection. How did you know?" she asked, confused.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room]

"The little rage spark was back, and bigger than it was."

He'll get rid of it. Again. If he can, that is.

[Mindfreak]

Tirin's Room
The seed goes away, though it's tougher to remove it this time.
"Tirin, as long as you're with me, you can remove it, right? There's nothing to worry about."
She picked up the picnic basket.
"Now come on, it's beautiful outside."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Tirin's Room -> Roof]

He's torn. On the one hand, he's sure it is beautiful outside, and there's no reason they can't talk there, but, on the other, she needs to get that that this is serious.

He decides to compromise, and talk while walking.

"Maybe. It was stronger this time, though. Harder to get rid of. I need to look at Zero, as soon as I can. And I think you should stay away from him, if possible."

[Mindfreak]

Halls > Roof
"We'll go see him after lunch, Zero doesn't get visited often."
She'll wrap her tail around his waist.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Roof]

He'd mimic her, but his tail is currently going up and rubbing behind her ears. He's also scratching her back, and, as I think we can take as written, is being very careful not to hurt her with his claws.

"Sounds good."

He's setting up the loop again, too.
