"Always."
Gabriel had been behind Sosol this time, though their backs were to each other this time.
Albee looked up, laying the Albee-cat on his shoulder.
"Hi, Terry!"
The child ran over to him and hugged him around the waist.
"Since Azana's got it down, do you think I can continue my training too?"

"Mind sharing...?" Sosol asked, glancing over his shoulder. Man, was he fast!
"Really?" Azana asked, darting over to the screen and leaving Terry to his small djinn fanboy. "What are we looking at?"
"Finalized team layouts...Gren, Chris, and ourselves will be on that first wave. Of course, that assumes Chris is doing as he promised. Once we get out as many as we can, your loving husband, Remy, KameRamek, and Mr. Mechasuit will join us for neutralizing the staff and liberating the rest." Tyler explained, scrolling over to the warden's farmhouse.
"I'm assuming this is where most of the trouble will be...we have a high-power team heading there. Charlotte, Albee, Abigail herself, and Kristen. If our one confrontation has shown anything, it's that she won't go down easy."
"Why, certainly, Albee! Though, don't you require a drink to transform?" Terry asked, giving him a light pat on the head.

Gabriel shook his head.
"Only my own... nightmares..."
Albee shook his head with a pout.
"I need to learn how to dodge this thing no matter what form I'm in. Work from the bottom rung up, y'know?"

"Whatever you say, small-fry," Terry replied playfully, mussing his silver hair slightly and stretching. "I guess I can go again..."
"Nightmares? Hm, I've had a few of those in my day...something you want to talk about?" He asked, wondering if he should ask about the last time he left.
"Alright...yeah, by the time we're done, Remy should be able to head in without problems," Azana said with a nod.
"I was thinking of putting him with us, but then I remembered that whole threshold thing." Tyler sighed.

Gabriel shook his head.
"They are nightmares in the figurative sense... They are more memories."
He took a seat at the bar once more, letting out a sigh and a puff of grey smoke from his lips.
Albee saw Terry's tiredness.
"Do ya need a nap first? That'd be okay, y'know."

"Not a nap...though kicking up my feet for a little would be appreciated. I can't give you my best after Az over there wore me out." Terry flopped on one of the couches with a contented sigh.
"Ah...some people around here have those, too. I won't pry...though..." Sol took a deep breath. "I'm curious...what happened between you and Howard last time you were here?"
"Well, it looks good. Really good," Azana patted him on the shoulder. "Have you slept yet...?"
"In a bit...I'm reluctant to take that super capsule Myras tossed my way," Tyler glanced to the stone, grimacing for a moment before smirking at the screen. "Alright, it gets even better. Max, Zulma, and Fenyx -- mostly for the tools needed -- are our auxiliary. Max will orchestrate efforts, especially if I can patch into their surveillance...while our corpulent innkeeper will take care of any wounded we send back."
"Don't remind me...I owe her one hell of an apology for all this..."

"Eh."
An unusually embarassed face came over Gabriel's usually frozen face.
"I gave him... the wrong pill. He probably thinks I was trying to convert him again..."
Albee nodded and took up a seat next to the couch, taking up his Albee-cat in his arms.

Sosol breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, thank goodness...I was able to help him get everything out of his system, so no worries there."
"So," Terry said, glancing over to Albee, "if I heard right, you're with Charlotte..."
Tyler yawned, closing his laptop and reluctantly pocketing the stone. "I think I'll take that overdue rest now," he said, rubbing at his tired eyes before waving. "If you see Hunter, let him know I should have it ready before the weekend."

Gabriel let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank God. I didn't know if those things could be remedied, but obviously you're quite skillful. How is he now?"
Albee's blue skin turned purple rather than the red of normal colored cheeks.
"I... I think so. If not a pillow of sorts..."

"Well, I wasn't sure what happened, so I treated it like a case of poisoning. Activated charcoal to absorb the toxins, and a little holy water to reverse what damage had been caused. When I woke up, he was asleep, but fine. He's his usual self." Sosol nodded, waving Tyler off.
Terry hadn't meant that, but-- "You think so...? Things still a little nebulous?" He asked, much more interested in this than the teamings. After all, it wasn't like he was going. As soon as this all blew over, he'd be back at HQ...maybe then he'd be able to talk to Stella...

*As Tyler walked off, Myras waved back to him, coming down from the stairs.*
I heard a tad bit coming down. Good luck on your mission tomorrow!
Hm.... I should practice my own magic while you're all away...
(I'm reading from the beginning of november to get a gist of things. I should be fully prepared for everything here by the next event.)

Gabriel crossed his arms with an approving expression.
"If anything, what you treated might as well be a poison. Many of my... kind... use that method any more. But I kept that on me as a sort of keepsake. From a person in my past."
Albee stroked the cat's head to elicit a purr, holding it close.
"It seems as if she only likes me when she's bored or she needs to be comforted. But the way I feel about her... I like being with her just to relax too."
He buried his face in blue fur.
"She's just herself I guess, but..."

"Mm, well...she spends a lot of time around the catboy, I noticed. She feels protective of him, but I think it might be 'cause he needs it..." Terry thought, wiping down the blade absently. "Don't give up on her...honestly, you two seem more alike and suited to each other. That's just my opinion, though, and you see where that's gotten me."
"Ah...old friend, I'm guessing?" Sosol asked, floating a glass to himself. "Everyone's got their trinkets..."

"You think so?" she asked, rolling out from beneath a couch.

Albee smiled sadly.
"Glad ya see it that way-- Agh, Charlotte?!"
"Very old. But quite beautiful, or so my legend goes."
He blew a ring of smoke from the deoths of his throat, forming a ring.
