"I cannot see how. The tension has been obvious for a long time." Yeul stated in turn, sitting down herself, on her knees. "And although I have not seen overmuch of it the last week, Winona has informed me this is a common occurance."
Caius raised a corner of his mouth as he heard Victoria's response, accompanied by a faint frown. "You say that is if this is a trait limited to humanity," he interjected after Yeul finished speaking. "It is not so."

Code:
"Yeah no it's really common here. I'm having a hard time remembering when people here didn't find reasons to hit and shout at each other."
Code:
"Well yeah, every society has its violent jack-asses. It's just that front what I've seen of humans, that group includes most of them.""Not noticing a change in that sense. I see." Yeul responded, curt in her response as she didn't want to talk over Victoria's conversation with Caius. Placing her hands on her knees, she listened to what was being said.
"Are humans more prone to violence then other inteligent beings? I could not say. My interaction with such beings has been too limited to come to a grounded conclusion." Caius stated, shrugging ever-so-slightly. He didn't look to Victoria's mechanical eye much, having overlooked it to what he found a satisfactory degree already, it and the rest of Victoria's prosthetics stopped being a point of interest. "However, I have found that such beings do take their violence... to a greater degree."

Proditus soon grew tired of watching the xeno creature trying to butcher Hans. Bloodshed for bloodshed's sake was the fetish of the devotees of Khorne, and he found the struggle in front of him to be crude and banal. Turning away from them, he strolled -if one whose every footstep caused a slight vibration in the ground could be said to stroll- over to Hans's Valkyrie. He had seen them in the sky, or crashing in flames and havoc many times, but had never found himself up close to an intact one with a living war-spirit before.
Henry eventually locked both hands behind Hans' back, with a knee oh his lower back to better hold him down. Still Hans struggled however, squirming and doing his level best to buck the predator. "If someone could help me sedate this man?!" Henry called out, looking to anyone still present.
Proditus turned away from the Valkyrie to glance at Henry, surprised when he saw that the words had come from the disgusting creature.
"I could certainly help to incapacitate him." He replied dryly. "But not without making a terrible mess."

"The entities on my homeworld are not what I was refferencing." Caius stated, shaking his head in a barely noticeable manner, then shifted position as he leaned against the wall, raising his right leg a little.
"There are only one kind of non-human entities in the public eye, on our home world." Yeul added, looking towards Victoria. "Although few in number."

Deciding to leave Sophia alone, Samus head back out, catching the last part of what Henry said. She dismissed her armour, drawing the Paralyser, charging a blast. "I suggest you don't touch him."
Henry looked to Samus and nodded, ignoring Proditus' dry retort. He stood, and lifted Hans, following the lidt with a slam into the concrete. He then hopped back, giving Samus a clear shot.
Hans seemed unfazed by the slam, jumping to his feet and pulling a small knife from his belt. With a grunt, he began a run towards Proditus- only to stop and roll to the right, anticipating a shot from Samus.

Samus paralyser took a second to charge, which worked to her advantage here, as the shot was ready just as Hans was recovering from his roll. She fired, a bolt of crackling crimson energy flying towards Hans. If it hit, he would be tasered, get knocked out cold, and probably piss himself.
Code:
"Oh really? So this wouldn't be your first outing to another universe then?" [i]Wonder how many others besides Sophia and these two can make that claim...[/i]
Code:
"Yeah that's not surprising to hear."Proditus couldn't help but laugh as he saw the little knife come out, a short, booming exclamation. For the briefest moment he pondered what his response would be when the blade inevitably failed to pierce his Terminator armour, torn between eviscerating Hans in a shower of gore with his lightning claw, or simply clouting him in the head with a fist that could easily cave in his skull. Even as Samus fired her paralysing shot, he decided that he would simply give Hans a discouraging swat if he made it close enough. The Chaos Space Marine's enormous, armoured fist would still undoubtedly shatter Hans's jaw and probably leave him permanently deformed, but this he decided, was a merciful enough punishment for his folly. He could always wave it away as self defence of a sort, and given the Guardsman's insane hurry to martyr himself, he doubted that any of the witnesses would be able to argue the point.
Gwen, still not yet feeling tired yet, decided to investigate the ongoing noise that was outside. Probably because it still sounded like fighting. But it was mostly because she wanted to know more about this Chaos Marine. EMily had more experience with them, so she wanted to see for herself.
She looked out beyond the ship to observe what Hans was experiencing. Her eyes glowed faintly as she crossed her arms.

OOC: @Slenn: Just to clarify, Proditus's laughter was more a short outburst of disbelief and contempt than maniacal, cartoonish cackling, and he hasn't actually moved. He was just mentally sizing up his options for what to do if Hans tried to stab him. Sure, just by looking at him Gwen could tell that he's capable of taking Hans's head off, but he'd be equally capable of just standing there and letting Hans break his knife against the armour.Slenn said:
"It is not," Caius confirmed. "I did so before, years before now. Then, circumstances alowed to come and go as I pleased. I wish it were so, now..."
Yeul only hummed in response to Victoria's comment towards her. She wondered what Victoria meant by her comment, but decided to hold off on asking this, for the time being, as she didn't want to talk over an ongoing conversation.

Samus's stun shot would catch Hans, knocking him into a heap. He struggled to stay conscious, but passed out.
Henry shuddered, and walked forward, collecting Hans. "I hate fanatics..." he muttered in annoyance. He shouldered Hans without difficulty, and carried him inside the larger ship.

Samus holstered her paralyser, reactivating her armour and looking at Proditus, giving him a galre through the visor before walking off.
