Ness looked at Jess and nodded before noticing her slight uncomfortableness with having them in. [color=FF4599] "Hmm... This is the first time you've worn contacts, right?" [/color] She scratched the back of her head slightly [color=FF4599] "I probably should've asked you beforehand. They'll take a while to get used to, but eventually they'll just feel like they're part of your eye when you have them in. ...I think that's everything for our disguises taken care of, right?" [/color]

"Yeah, don't worry about me. I'll just have to get used to them." Jessica replied to Ness, blinking a lot more than she usually did. "I can't really think of anything else. Then again I've never done anything like this before, so I've no idea if there's any kind of standard or anything."

Ness nodded as she ran through a few things in her mind before nodding. [color=FF4599] "Yeah... I think... that's everything. There really isn't a standard for disguises... but this is kind of overdoing it. Y'kno... just in case." [/color]

She snapped her fingers and a portal leading to her room in Fourside opened up. [color=FF4599] "After you... Oh... we should come up with aliases, as well. We surely don't want to go back with our actual names right now." [/color]

"Yeah, the high templar you were fighting with claimed she had some control of herself. I personally feel like its bullshit, but I'm not the defendant."
[hr]
Adam smiled. "More like a more naturally grown virus. Dad always said that he preferred natural born children to forcing ourselves on other people. Although he did take quite an interest in how you got your own body, I must say. Became somewhat enamored with the idea." the child grabbed a chair, wheeling it over for Skye to sit on. he pulled another chair, this one much smaller, and sat in it. "So... I hate to ask, but what can you tell me about dad?"

Skye bit her lip in response to Adam's question. [color=330033] "To be honest... I barely got to talk to him since I was injected into my host... But he was a very interesting man. He loved screwing around, making jokes, and the like. But when he was serious, he was rather scary." [/color]

[hr]

Rex shook his head. [color=000066] "There was no way she had control of herself. I've seen her with those red eyes before." [/color] He lifted up his shirt and showed a large scar on his rib. [color=000066] "When she was like that, she did this to me... while we were fighting on the same side. Though I don't blame the dude for trying to blame her... Her hand was on the trigger, regardless of what I say." [/color]

"Better safe than sorry, right?" Jessica replied to Ness with a shrug. She let out a small sigh and said to Ness, "That makes sense. I'll try and think of something." She started immediately mulling over coming up with an alias as she stepped through the portal Ness created.

Ness calmly walked through as the newly disguised duo found themselves in Ness' room in Fourside. [color=FF4599] "I've already got the ailas 'Reiss LeBlanc' here and I'll use that same name over in Xiphatia from here on out. Hopefully, they'll buy the new look for now. ...Now.. do we just have to wait until we hear from Tophat?" [/color]

"I'll do my best to remember to call you that from now on." Jessica replied to Ness while nodding her head. She strolled over to the bed in the room and sat herself down on the edge. "I guess. Unless you think there's anything more productive we could do to try and undermine Loki on our own." She leaned forward and rested her elbows on her thighs, then propped her head up in her palms.

Adam nodded. "He seemed to try to hide the seriousness. I don't think he was that happy. Always hard to tell with dad though." he sat there, kicking his feet for a moment.
[hr]
Eve looked the cut over. "And again, I agree. But, the inquiry still needs to happen. Killing him..." her shoulders came up as if to shield her, and Eve took a deep breath. "Killing an investigator, its not something you just write off as something that just 'happens'. There needs to be an investigation, an examination of evidence." she slid a mug over to a man wearing a somewhat complicated uniform, a glowing orange metallic eye in one of his sockets. "Best case scenario, she shows up, talks to the inquiry board, she's done by the time the days out. Maybe a slap on the wrist to make sure nobody else tries to kill an investigator and plead insanity."

Skye nodded as well. [color=330033] "I only met and talked with him once before we were separated. I can't say I knew him as well as I wanted to..." [/color] She bowed her head a little more. [color=330033] "And... I never will." [/color]

[hr]

Rex nodded. [color=000066] "What's the worst case? Execution?" [/color]

[hr]

Ness put a hand to her chin. [color=FF4599] "...The only thing I could think of is trying to de-control anyone he's already had in control, especially anyone in the castle. ...But doing that's almost suicide without some sort of cloak as effective as Loki's... and I don't have anything like that in production. And I'd need to give them nanosheets as well..." [/color]

Jessica hummed to herself as she thought. "Yeah, that is quite the pickle. From what I can remember, Loki and that Rita girl are practically glued together too. The only person I can think of that Loki controls that isn't in a Xiphatian city is that necromancer guy. He always kept to himself a lot." She shuddered to herself and added, "And thank goodness for that. He offended pretty much all my senses."

Adam smiled, an impish little grin painting the little girl's face. "I think I can help with that. Dad trained me in a few techniques..." one of his fingers turned into a small needle. "Going to need to prick you though."
[hr]
"maybe. Or maybe they'll just shut down inter dimensional travel to her universe, since its apparently dangerous enough to kill investigators. Or maybe they'll decide to keep her from ever going back to her home universe, but allow her to visit as many others as she'd like. The thing about the council is that I have no idea how they'll respond to her. Most people don't have her unique case of all those factors."

Rex sighed. [color=000066] "Let's hope for the best then. She's still trying to take out the dude who mind controlled her in that world. And honestly... she's the only who can explain what happened." [/color]

[hr]

Skye looked at the girl and her odd grin. [color=330033] "Go ahead." [/color] She paused a bit before continuing. [color=330033] "I do hope you're not scheming to do something horrible to me... or my colleagues." [/color]

[hr]

Ness scratched the back of her head. [color=FF4599] "If we give him a nanosheet, Loki loses access to his zombie army. It'll at least slow down his progress... Thing is if Loki happens to be near him when we try... it's game over. And if we manage to free him, do you think he'd help us take Loki down?" [/color]

Jessica gave Ness a shrug. "I honestly can't say if he'd help us out or not. I barely ever spoke to the guy. But even then, so long as he's not working with Loki that's pretty much a win for us, right?...Problem is we don't exactly have any way of telling whether or not Loki's there."

Eve nodded, and went back to tending bar. "Best advice I can give you right now is to talk with some people around. You'll be stuck here until Rozlynn and Adam are done talking with Skye."
[hr]
Adam nodded, and without further delya inserted the needle into Skye's arm, gently. After sitting there for a moment, Skye would have all of Adam and Rozlynn's memories of Bryce and Caesar. "They... Liked to use both faces when they were with us. Help both Roz and myself grow as people." Skye'd recall Bryce teaching Rozlynn to read, who seemed farther ahead then most children would be in development, acting like a 5 year old instead of a 2 year old as her age would suggest. other then that it was standard parent and child memories, although nothing had been forgotten. Near the last 6 months, Bryce would be more and more busy serving with the WAOA, and there would be less memory of him as such, almost no mention of him the month before his death aside from the few days he spent with Rozlynn playing with her, keeping her entertained and devoting days to her.

Ness flopped onto the bed, sighing a bit. [color=FF4599] "So we just roll the dice? I haven't seen him enough to teleport near him like I can with you... so we're also assuming they haven't moved from that temple either. And you're right... as long as we kill Loki's forces, there's a chance the guards could find him as he tries to do more underhanded things." [/color] After saying this, she sat up and sat down next to Jess(working name).

[hr]

Rex nodded before looking around the bar. [color=000066] "Eve... get me one of Bryce's favorite drinks, if you don't mind. Probably would've done that with him now." [/color]

[hr]

Skye sighed as the memories flooded in, rubbing her eyes under her glasses. [color=330033] "I see. They're just as good parents as I would've hoped. You're lucky you and Roz have had them around..." [/color]

"Pretty much. All we can really do is go that temple and hope he's there alone. Either that or wait and hear from Tophat what the whole situation is." Jessica replied to Ness with a sigh. She sat up straight as something seemed to hit her, then turned to look at Ness. "How about Samantha Montagna?" She said, as if suggesting something to Ness.

Ness tilted her head a bit before nodding toward Jess, smiling a bit. [color=FF4599] "It sounds like a great name, Sam." [/color] Looking out of the window, she sighed and nodded. [color=FF4599] "I'm against rolling the dice for now... Let's try and wait for Tophat to talk to us... unless he takes too long." [/color]

Eve nodded, and poured some whiskey in a glass before placing it in front of Rex.
[hr]
Adam shrugged. "No real way for me to judge that. I suppose he was a good father. dying when Roz was 3 might not have been the most fatherly move however."
