"Oi...still?" Tyler asked in mild disbelief, running a hand through his hair and reminding himself to get it cut at some point before it got too wild. "Everyone is indeed up to something, though. For now, it's mostly me, but we've got another mission...still in the planning phase, gathering resources and information."
"We've got a new mission," Azana said, not bothering to beat around the bush with Chris in his mood. "Still in the planning phase, but we're taking out a pseudo-asylum that's been tormenting its patients. Got a bit ramped up in priority after the warden psychically assaulted Felix."
"Please, Sol...is there anything? A hint, a favorite flower that might put me in her favor?" Terry asked, clearly serious about what he was saying.
"Um..." Sosol was feeling a bit awkward, starting to understand why the cousins tended to avoid him. "You seem very, er, zealous in your endeavor..."
"But of course!" He answered, an almost dreamy look in his eye. "She's the woman of my dreams...and yet she acts like I don't exist..."

Howard snickered at the man next to him.
"Really so desperate to be with this girl, man?"

Charlote giggled, handing it over. " 'Kaaaay!"
Gren sighed. "Why's she the woman of your dreams, Terry?"

"If I know Chris, he'll want to charge into this case headfirst. I don't think he should. He looks like he hasn't slept in weeks. I know he's barely eaten since he heard about Angeles. He's in no shape to fight and I might need help to convince him of that."
"Okay, I'll need a tactical layout of the entire facility. I need dossiers on the entire staff and we'll need to compile a list of available resources. it's probably best to get moving on this as quickly as possible. The longer we wait, the more time they have to prepare for us."

"Yaay!"
Albee took the soda and gulped down the remainder.
"Yaay, growing time--"
But this time he didn't collapse. Rather, his eyes stared blankly as his expression froze in place.
"Uhhh..."

Enta sighed. "I think we should shower so we can go downstairs. I'm famished after all of that... 'exercise.'
Felix peered from his doorway at the romping children and the talkative group. He rubbed the right side of his face, the forming scars now angry scabs, two across his eye, two on the outer corner of his eye, curving like crescents around his socket and a shirt one from the bridge of his nose to just under his eye. Backing up, he closed the door with a soft click. Why ruin everyone's fun with his prescence? Besides, he was still quite tired.

"Chris, you don't even know what we're doing. Take a couple of melatonin, get a night's rest, and then you can join in."
Charlotte blinked at Albee, concerned. "Eh?" Hearing a door click nearby but no lumbering approach, she snapped her fingers, Mr. Cobbs appearing in the bed with a small bag of dried squid."You okay, Albee?"

((I am having way too much fun with Terry... XD A little secret: the guy's a hopeless romantic...this is his fourth "true love" this year.))
"Tyler's doing that already," Azana said, her arms folded and her expression solemn. "If you're wanting in on this, and I know you are, listen up and listen good, because I have absolutely no qualms about giving you more electrical burns to snap you out of this state, too. You are in no shape to be going anywhere as you are now. I'm just as pissed about Angeles as you, but running yourself ragged won't get you anywhere. You are, tentatively, on the roster, but if you are not in top form when the time comes, you are staying here. That means rested, well-fed, and mentally centered. End of story."
Tyler nodded, stretching and listening to a couple loud pops in his shoulders and back. "This asylum has tons of experience getting under peoples' skin and breaking willpower...if Chris is as bad as you say, he will be more of a liability than anything else. I'm sure anyone else on this will understand that, too."
It's risky enough as is...everyone here has issues. More than balancing abilities, this will be about dancing around each other's flaws...
"Oh, where do I begin?" He sighed happily, sipping at the last of the limeade as if it were a fine wine. "She is a thing of beauty...eyes of sapphire, stars in each...strands of gold that flow from her crown, features that would make a goddess jealous...! And that's just physically...poetry wouldn't do her justice. A poem! Do you think she would like one?"
Sosol blinked...yeah, he could see why Stella would shy away from him...

Enra nodded and pecked him one last time across the lips as he got to his feet.
"I'll be the first one down, you can take your time coming down if you feel like it, but I don't think Felix is going to be on my back much today."
He went into his room to shower and step into a new set of clothes, descending into the Inn and waving down at everyone.
"Yooo, guys, long time no see~"
Albee twitched.
"I'm..."
He fell to his knees and held his head, trembling throughout his entire body.
"It's too much..."

Chris nodded, showing the most life he had in weeks. "Okay, Az. I hear you. I'll do what I can to get straight." He walked over to Stacy and Tyler. "Hi, guys. Mind if I join you?"
Stacy gave him a gentle smile and patted a spot on the floor, indicating that he should sit.

(With that last statement of his, it's pretty clear XD )
Gren blinked. "Ah. I get it." He set down the paper. "Terry...I think what she'd like more than anything else is to be treated kindly. Not like a goddess, but with respect."
Charlotte looked worried. "Doctor Howard?"

Enta sighed, missing the other warmth already. Slowly, he hauled himself out of bed and into his bathroom after plucking a random outfit from his closet.
Felix brightened slightly at the sight of his favorite toy and a new treat. Picking up the bag, he began munching on the calimari.

"Eh?"
Howard noticed Charlotte and Albee, turning about.
"Albee? What did you do to yourself...?"
"I was just drinking the soda, and I finished it off, and--"
Howard cursed.
"Charlotte, step back, please."
"MMMrhphh..."
Albee was clutching his stomach now, as blue smoke started to flow off of him.
Enra walked up next to his adopted niece, pulling on his hat.
"Hey, chaos-niece, what's going on?"

Charlotte waved to Enra, smiling sadly. "Albee broke. Felled by a strawberry soda."

"Welcome back to the world of the living," Tyler quipped with a smirk, sliding over and offering Stacy a seat next to him. "Nothing quite like the magic of coffee and a rousing speech, is there?"
Azana gave a nod, feeling like she had actually gotten through to him. To others, it would probably seem a bit harsh, but it was the wake-up call he needed, to know that he was no help to anyone, least of all Angeles, depriving himself. Now, there was still the matter of talking to Terry, but it seemed that he had already availed himself of the others.
"You alright there, Enra...?" Sosol asked, momentarily distracted from Terry's gushing.
"I have been nothing but kind!" Terry replied, resting his head in one hand. The idea of respect though, made it tilt to a new angle...of course he respected her...he admired her, even loved her. "...what do you mean by that, Gren...?"
