Gren nodded, considering this for a moment. "Well...I'm with Sosol, since you seem to have a lot of control. But, in case anything happens, I should point out that the Inn is self-repairing. Granted, you'll probably have to go through some training, like he said...but I think it'll work out all right. I really do."
He smiled warmly. "All we have to do for now is not upset you near an open flame...and that sounds easy enough, hm?"

Kristen held one hand in the other, nodding. "I just...need to keep calm, yes."
Sosol pulled her into a hug. "This is why we're here...both the Inn, and the GMO. You'll be fine."
Tyler kept silent, sipping at his tea. To keep Kristen stable until she awakened and could harness that ability...there was a lot they couldn't say.

Gren simply smiled honestly. Telling her not to worry would just worry her, which was something he was sure she'd be doing with competence in good time. Strolling back to his seat, he took Fritz from Jean-Luke with a polite request, and offered him over to Kristen. "Kitten therapy?"

"Yes, please!" Kristen laughed, taking the small kitten in her arms. "Hello...!"
Tyler looked down into his mug. He was hoping to break the news without Kristen's presence...but then again, her having that knowledge was probably for the best. Even if it did cause her to worry, she was at least aware now, to some degree, of what she was capable of doing.
"It seems to work for a lot of people here...Laimu and Moonbeam have become best friends!"

Fritz was baffled by the sudden transportation and wiggled somewhat, trying to get his bearings. Sniffing about on Kristen's arms, he immediately took interest in what was in her mug and proceeded to try sticking his head in for a taste. Gren snickered.

Kristen giggled, letting him try it for himself...she doubted he would enjoy her tea.
The door to the Inn opened with a creak, the two cousins entering while practically leaning on one another.
Sosol jumps from his seat, running over to support the two and guide them to a couch. "Jesus, you two...at least tell me it's done!"
Azana nodded weakly, offering a thumbs up, while Stella remained somewhat out of it.
((Yes, this is me getting lazy and not wanting to write up yet another ritual.))

(I can't blame you; those things look awfully time consuming.)
Fritz lapped at it a moment, licked his nose, sneezed, and proceeded to climb onto the bar counter for exploration.
Gren blinked, quickly dashing annoyance at the sight of the blond and letting rote manners take over, aided Sosol in guiding the cousins to a seat. "I'm glad it went well." he smiled charmingly.

Stella's eyes remain unfocused, staring off to the ceiling from her position on the couch.
"Wasn't easy," Azana rasped, Sosol immediately pouring a glass of water and hovering it over to them. "...is she...?"
"Looks a bit catatonic, but all the vital signs check out," Tyler reported, a few feet away with her. "I think she just needs some time..."
Kristen wanted to jump up and help, but remembering her primary directive, she stayed with the kitten, calming her nerves.

"Oh dear...will she need the medical room, or just a room? We can't send her home like that."
Fritz plopped down nearby Kristen, still interested in her tea, and dabbed a paw in, licking more off.

Azana breathed a sigh of relief, coughing partway through due to her dry throat. "Thanks, Sol..." she said, sipping at it carefully.
"I can return her to her home, if you do not wish for her to stay," Kristen said quietly, watching Fritz share her tea. "I know there remains some ill feelings about her presence..."
"I'm incredibly curious as to what the hell happened out there, but I'm guessing I'll have to wait to find out," Tyler muttered, looking down at the mage. Obviously, this ritual could have used a third...

'Plenty, in fact, though I'm not sure who told you about it." he sighed. "But I like the rest of you more than I hate her, and I know you'd worry. I'll ready a room." He headed to the key rack to find one close the the stairwell for ease in access.
Bored with the drink, the kitten tottered over to Kristen and clambered onto her lap, wandering about on it and inspecting her.

Kristen gave a sheepish smile as he left. He probably wouldn't appreciate that she knew by an accidental peek into her employer's mind, but with the way she dwelled on it, she might have well been screaming it to her. Glancing down to the kitten, she pet it gingerly.
Azana gulped down the rest of the water. "Those broken spirits...some were eager. Many were hostile...attacked us."
"Yikes...I'm guessing that was a bit more than you guys were bargaining for," he said, nuzzling her lightly. "I'm glad you're alright. Both of you."

"Besides, turning someone away someone in need just because I don't like them? Sounds like a gross abuse of power...ah, here we are..." he smiled, finding one suitable. "C'mon...let's get her upstairs."
Fritz arched his back immediately to the petting, turning around and licking Kristen's fingertips.
(Next one's last for me, I'm afraid.)

Sosol nodded, lifting Stella easily between psychokinetics and the fact that she was actually quite light. "I'm right behind you, Gren," he said, carefully crossing the room with her.
"I'll pick up some diagnostic equipment from James...I know he's hiding some," Tyler suggested, dreading going to the kid's room but knowing that it would be a good plan.
Kristen chuckled, letting the others take care of Stella for now as she continued to show the cat some love.
Azana's body felt heavy, though not quite as stiff now that she was warming up. By the time they returned downstairs, she'd probably be asleep.

Strolling up the stairs, he let Eli fret on the couch with a sigh. Unlocking the door, he held it open, staring curiously at the popsicle-stick flooring job. "What in the...I don't think I want to know." Testing the weight capacity, he found it to be sound. "Safe, c'mon in."
Fritz nibbled at a finger, milk teeth not even close to a danger.
(Good night!)
