Well, Honesyuckle doesn't know what it's like to be trapped in a large void full of eyes, exactly. Sure, she was told they were there, but that's not quite the same.
"Sure, I know."
She rests there a few moments, just appreciating Marin being there beside her.
"Alright, leave all decisions to me! first, we write tha report! Then, back to celebration!"
Quick, off to...wherever they left the writing supplies! Honeysuckle can get the computers hereto print out words for her, but making something colorful is going to have to be left in Marin's hands.

Harley looks over at the gloves. Okay. "Thanks." It's really considerate that he put it there instead of trying to hand it to her.
She'll grab them later.
Manja, realizing from the tone of his voice and the way he shakes his head that her father is now playing with her, turns her full attention towards him.
She makes some entergetic baby noises and reaches towards him, and kicks her legs.
Harley blinks a few times, and yawns. Rein's making a very convincing offer. "Yeah. Um..." After a few moments for her thoughts to catch up to her words, Harley holds Manja out for him to take. (Manja seems to be okay with this, because it means she gets to play with him more.)
"Yeah. Thanks. I'm going to take a shower." Showers are really effective at waking people up better.
Once she no longer is holding the baby, she grabs some things then goes to the shower.
And Manja reaches towards his face.

"Okay! Marin says. She goes with, working with her to get the report all prepared and the celebration all...celebrated, and any other miscellaneous myriad things they do.Favorite sports:

"No problem." Rein'll take Manja and Manja... will take his face! "Oh no!"
Or just grab parts of it anyways. Rein shakes his head playfully as if trying to escape her grip. She probably has his nose or a strand of his hair. Has being a rather loose term, given her grip strength at this time. Yet Rein pretends for her sake all the same.

Oh, no, that won’t be necessary.
You don’t need to do tasks before you join, perhaps after.
I would like to know what your skills are so we can figure out where best to use you.
But also, I need to get you one of the new member gift bags, all kinds of neat stuff in there.

Re: HALO 184: Red and Grey All The Way
// A gift bag, you say? That sounds nifty. As for my skills, I am highly proficient in the use of cosmic energies to achieve all sorts of effects -- some call it magic, but to me it is more of a science as I understand it quite well. I also have a very small portion of the Akashic Record devoted to my memories, and as such it is virtually impossible for me to forget anything, even if I wanted to. //

That sounds fantastic and you can tell me all about the Akashi Record later, but it sounds to me like you would be perfect to help us keep track of things around here.

Re: HALO 184: Red and Grey All The Way
// Yes, that would make sense. Any place where I can experiment with my power without endangering anyone is incredibly useful to me, for such opportunities rarely present themselves, and mortals, fragile as they are, are simply too intriguing for me to bring myself to endanger them with my experimentation. //
Aen then trailed off spilling some stream-of-consciousness about how mortals invoke protective instincts in him and how he sees the average mortal like a human would see a fox or cat or other cute but still relatively clever small animal. Good evidence against the 'universe is out to get us' way of thinking, at least for whatever multiverse this being came from. It also made sense, somewhat, that it would be difficult to contain all one's thoughts when one's mind had such an abundance of them. He was careful to profusely note that these folk around here (either in HALO or in the Nexus in general) were far from average and that he saw them as equals, though. Notably, he would still follow wherever you led him, and if you asked him to be quiet, you would cease to pick up any more of the strange speech (though it was quite possibly still being emitted).There are 1d20 types of people in the world: people that always roll natural 1 when it matters.

// As I stated before, my main idea for a laboratory is a space where I can experiment with my power without causing harm to the surrounding environment or its denizens. Generally this would mean mechanisms to ensure my actions don't spill their effects outside, in addition to the any measuring instruments which I can describe in detail when they are needed, // Aen explained. // I am sure such materials exist that can withstand most if not all magical forces, and those should suffice here.

Dorota nods.
"I'm aware of anti-magic materials, yes. I... might be able to produce some myself. I don't know if it would be cheaper than buying them. It would take more time, certainly. I'd need to run it by Felandria and Reinholdt.

Aen stops for a moment, then replies, // In here, right now? I will produce a minor effect, then. //
As his eyes begin to glow more intensely, there is a strange, indescribable sound, as the space around him ripples for a moment, and instantly an orb of energy appeared in his hand -- a sphere of colors you've never seen before, dotted with tiny pips of light that look like stars.
// This is a rather basic projectile, but you should be able to analyze it for the type of energy and the nature of my power. //There are 1d20 types of people in the world: people that always roll natural 1 when it matters.

"So it's less of a spell and more a localized alteration of reality." Dorota looks at the ball for a while. She then steps aside for a moment to her section of the lab and returns with a small ivory cube. "It's a device used by sorcerers of my homeland to measure the agitation of reality around them. It's a big concern to them. If my guess is correct, your effect should trigger it. Then I'll have something to work with."My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies.

A tall brunette with vaguely British and Latin features, pale skin and green eyes strides into HALO, dressed in a business suit and her hair done up. She looks like a police detective, and is currently exactly Fel's usual height.
That's right: it's Rosie, Fel's girlfriend, who's waiting to meet her! After all, during their last date she was told to consider herself a member, which means it's time for a tour!

The effect does indeed trigger the sensor. In fact, the concentration of the power is astounding; the intensity is low outside the space occupied by Aen and by the sphere, but is extremely high near Aen, and pointing the device at Aen or the sphere directly indicates something akin to a singularity -- an extremely dense and discretely quantized region of cosmic energy that is stabilized by a counterbalancing field...in other words, don't touch it.There are 1d20 types of people in the world: people that always roll natural 1 when it matters.

"...well, then." Dorota doesn't really sound particularly surprised. Aen clearly has a tremendous amount of power under tight control. "This looks similar enough to power used by sorcerers of my homeland, or rather the after-effects of their power, that I should be able to fashion a material that resists it. Nothing that would stand up to enough direct application of your power, but enough to shield the environment from any less direct effects. And it shouldn't interfere with anyone else's magic," she adds, looking to Felandria.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

Re: HALO 184: Red and Grey All The Way
[Reinholdt's Office]
Reinholdt has begun to call HALO members to his office. The stated reason? An informal meeting to see how things are going, who is working on what, etc. It's like a quarterly audit or something. Rein stressed the informal nature of this, but also made it somewhat clear it was necessary to do it anyways.
Because the primary reason for these semi-interviews is to test for shapeshifters. The recent incident with the simulation room and malfunctioning teleporter revealed the possibility of an infiltration by someone claiming to be Harley's daughter. What this shapeshifter wants is anyone's guess, but it can't be ignored that there may have been sabotage already.
So it's time to check everyone, even Felandria and... ugh... Magtok. He intends to focus on HALO first before shifting to the affiliated Fourth Tower members.
One at a time though.
