We Are Our Avatars III (Ended!)

[Chungus]

Erica looked back up to Four and smiled. After a short while, she hugged Four and rested her chin on Four's shoulder. "I'd like that...
It would be just like the time I was in your head, huh? ...Well, not exactly, since I wouldn't be inside your head, but you know what I mean."

 

[Drakmorg]

Four hugged Erica back gently. "Yeah, it'll be just like that, only better because you will have your own body, instead of just having to live life vicariously through me." After a pause, Four said, "You know, we never did get around to having Tophat restore your memories of that time. Now that we have him back, I think we should make sure to do that sometime soon."

 

[Chungus]

"Yeah... But I'm not sure he'd be up for it. He still feels weak after being hurby that monster, Regulus, or whatever it's name is.
But even if he could, I'd still wait with asking. He deserved some time to relax after what he's been through."

 

[Silver Shadow]

@demon god(me) damn it! do you know how much it costs to fricate these universes! i already ow so much for reparing the damadge from triblys reighn, god thoses walls were expensive. that universe is coming out of your characters plot points (thats the curancy)

 

[Drakmorg]

"Oh, right, of course. We can give it some time before asking him then. You're right, he does deserve some time to relax before asking him to do anything." Four said.

 

[Chungus]

Erica let go of Four and leans against the wall again. Then, she once again looked at the ground, though this time she looked contemplative rather then sad. After a while she said, "You know... There's another thing I've been putting off forever. But this seems like a good time to talk about it.
Here goes..." Erica took a deep breath before continuing. "So... Tophat.
He loves me, but... I don't think that feeling is mutual. ...I don't know what to do. It's so wierd..."

 

[Drakmorg]

"Hmm..." Four hummed. She leaned against the wall opposite Erica and thought for a few moments. "That...is...difficult." She said. After a few more moments of thought she said, "If it's making you uncomfortable, then you should really address it with him. Just tell him you don't feel the same way about him that he does about you. He'll be hurt for a while, probably, but he'll get over it. Though it might be weird for both of you two after that if that's how it goes."

 

[Chungus]

Erica blew a deep sigh. "Yeah... That's what I thought I should do... still... I wouldn't want to give him the feeling that I've used him or something.
But at the same time, the way things are now... it doesn't feel right." Erica closed her eyes and rubbed her forehead.
[sub]"What have I gotten myself into..."[/sub]

 

[Silver Shadow]

THE two new people, Maria and Deysmn, aproach Erica and Four. deysmn waited for a moment to speak without interuptingthe conversation

 

[Drakmorg]

"Look, the way I see it is, the longer you drag this out, the worse he's probably gonna feel when you eventually have to get it over with. And I can't imagine why he'd think you were using him. I mean, you still think of him as a friend, right? Then just explain that to him. Four said to Erica. She noticed the two new people, and gave them a wave.

 

[Chungus]

"Yeah, I see him as a friend, but still... He's done much for me when I have done nothing in return..." Erica replied, then cast a glance at the new faces. "I guess we should continue this talk another time.
Or maybe I already know what I need to know... Or something..." She said to Four, then sighed again.

 

[Silver Shadow]

maria waved back hapily, deysmn was less happy "Are we interupting something?" deysmn cautiously asked, as this person had been quick to anger last time they had met

 

[Drakmorg]

"I'm sure if you said that you've never done anything for Tophat to him, he'd beg to differ." Four said, giving Erica a smile and a pat on the shoulder. "I think you pretty much know what you have to do though." She added, sounding somewhat more serious.
She turned to the two new people and said, "No, I think we're just about finished here." She turned back to Erica and asked, "Unless, is there anything you still want to talk about?"

 

[Chungus]

"No. We're done. I think it's about time I head to bed." Erica said to Four, giving her the slightests of smiles. "Good night, Four." she said, giving Four a loose hug.
Erica headed to her room and entered it. She undressed and climbed into bed. She cast a glance at Tophat before closing her eyes. ...I wonder what would be a good moment to discuss this...

OoC: And with that, I'm off.

 

[Drakmorg]

"G'night Erica." Four said, returning Erica's hug before she left. She turned to the two new people and asked them, "Now then, was there something you need? Do you have anyone to vouch for you staying here yet?"

In the communal quarters, Kharag stirred and then sat up on the bunk that he had chosen. Grabbing his satchel and mace, he got up and went out into the corridor.

In Rio...

James groaned and stretched his neck and shoulders as he sat up beside the burnt out campfire. As used to sleeping outdoors as he was, it was crazy to do so without so much as a sleeping bag. Wrinkling his nose at the smell of the boar carcass, which was starting to rot, he glanced across the dead fire at Joe's brain.
"Hey man, wake up. I think its about time we move on from here."

 

[Silver Shadow]

" um well..""Ooh the pyro guy yeah he was cool with us staying" maria butted in
@drak this is weaird, it keeps missing words i type

 

[Drakmorg]

"Who, Mumbles? Well, if he knows you two, I guess you can stay. But I'm gonna have to hear it from him as soon as possible." Four said to the two. She waved to Kharag as she saw him.

@Silver: Isn't that how it normally is for you though?

 

[Random berk]

Kharag acknowledged Four's wave with a dip of his head, and went over to ask for any news.

__________

Joe's brain woke as James called him, and James put on his tac-vest, checking that all his weapons were intact.
"Thanks for picking this up for me, by the way." He said as he did so.
"Any time James!" Joe's brain replied cheerily. "Shall we get back to the ship then?"
"Yeah, go for it." Joe's brain nodded and...

OOC: Shit, wait. 3D people can't go through Joe's portals, can they? They do whatever @Zeph was planning to do to get them back, anyway.

 

[Kirke]

Dio lay still, breathing slowly. It almost looked like he was in a coma, though what caused it was not clear.
OoC: @Random I think they can. I mean, Joe pulled Sniper and Dio through a portal.
