Shadow scoffs and moves the fluff off her keyboard, she'll have to think of something to get Wraith back.

[There’s a pile of orange cat-shaped fluff on top of Shadow’s computer.] (Just a silly little thing unrelated to the current rps. - @agentwraith )

Shadow looks at the fluff curiously, she pokes it. "Do you mind?"

Shadow's is weird because she was kinda always acquainted with the agency (being your kid to work dag sure was fun for Blue XD), but didn't become an agent until she was around 17, a little while after losing her arm and getting her prosthetic, and realizing she wanted to learn to defend herself and protect those who couldn't. So probably that.

Kai has a lot more definitive, and less talked about worst point. A little bit after Wraith pulled the gas mask contraption off his face and freed from the mind control, he looked out over the cliff where they had been fighting. It was almost completely demolished. I'd say his worst moment is realizing that he did that, and somebody could've died. Because of him. That hadn't happened since Lilac got her prosthetic...

Np tag! @agentwraith

Let's make a Tag Game: I Expect You to Reveal Backstory Edition

Tag someone to describe their Agent Phoenix / Agent OC's lowest point before joining the agency. It can be the point that made them turn to agency or their lowest point before the agency. (If you'd been tagged before, you can reply with a different Agent OC or Agent Phoenix timeline if you had multiple of them.)

I'll go first! :D

Agent 13-12 | Agent Firelight (Original Timeline)

An assassination attempt on their life following them ruining a Zoraxis plot but Zoraxis didn't have proof. They'd been followed for a while and almost lost someone important to them.

Tag (No Pressure + Open Tag):

A warmth enters Kai's chest as he leans into the hug, "yeah, me too..."

Rose walked down the hall with Kai in her arms, the sun was setting and she was pretty sure it was the little guy's bedtime.

She set him down in the room Oriae directed her towards, and he snuggled into bed, the blankets comically large for his size.

She chuckled and was about to head out when something shiny caught her eyes. It was some sort of golden sphere on the bedside table. She walked up to it, and picked it up gently, it was so intricate, maybe some sort of astronomical sphere?

All of a sudden the bands began to shift, forming letters and sentences. She nearly dropped the thing as she stumbled backwards. Heading out of the room so she didn't wake Kai up, and also to see if this was something she should be telling someone.

Once she closed the door to the room she looked back at the sphere, it read 'sing the song of the soul'

Huh, wonder what that meant. She went off to find Oriae, hopefully she knew more about weird cryptic artifacts than she did.

Kai chuckles, "Ahh, now isn't that a familiar thought pattern? Y'know, I'm still not sure if my own sister likes me. I spent... So much time in apathy, I..." his smile drops from his face as he thinks out loud to a place he never meant to go. "I completely succumbed to what they wanted me to be. So much pain and loss could've been avoided had I just snapped out of it. Maybe things could've been better had I taken another course of action. Maybe she would still trust me."

He looks back up at Ori, a few tears gathering at his eyes, "but that's just it? Isn't it? No matter how hard you wish things went differently, they always stay the same. The past doesn't care about your life, but you can. You can make things different. It just... Takes time." Kai chuckles softly as he wiped his eyes, "and a lot of it."

Kai looks up at her, his face becoming a mite more serious, though not exactly losing his smile. "You're right. The last time we got to watch a sunset like this, we were completely different people. Trapped in places neither of us really wanted to be, both physically, and mentally."

He looks out to the sky, a beautiful gradient gracing the sky as the sun sunk lower into the sky.

"I don't think either of us ever thought we would get out or get better, didn't even entertain the idea. But here we are," his face brightened and he looked up at Ori with an almost goofy smile. "Out, and... from what I can tell, better than ever."

A smile spreads across his face in that wide manner that happened whenever he saw one of his friends happy, "You're welcome, Ori." And he leaned his head up against her shoulder, watching the sun slowly begin to dip behind the horizon, as a warmth crawled into his chest.

"Really puts things into perspective, doesn't it?"

Rose walked down the hall with Kai in her arms, the sun was setting and she was pretty sure it was the little guy's bedtime.

Kai smiles, "That's okay, its my turn to bring the snacks." And he pulls out a bag he found in the kitchen with old snacks from a Halloween party, he's pretty sure they're still good, and he found some particularly good goodies inside.

He opens the bag and holds out a caramel apple to Oriae, "want one?"

Marco beams at him with his little pixilated face, and curls up in his hand, he's just a lil guy after all. A little guy with hardware from his sister and software from his sobrino, and maybe that's not so bad. Maybe that's what allowed this weird little thing to impact so many lives in the way it did.

He plops down right next to her, watching the sprawling view from their perch.

"wow. That's some view, isn't it?" He looks up at Ori with a fond smile, "reminds me of that time you got me out of detention."

His heart breaks a little as he walks closer, "I'm sorry."

He stops about a foot away, "May I sit here? Or would you like to be alone for a bit?"

Kai scours the halls, but after no luck in the building, he climbs the ladder to the roof, that seems like a nice place to cool off.

He finally spots Ori near the edge of the roof, and lets out a sigh that was holding tension in his shoulders.

"Hey," he calls out, "you okay?"

Rose walked down the hall with Kai in her arms, the sun was setting and she was pretty sure it was the little guy's bedtime.

Marco looks up at him with a little kawaii face on his front screen and rubs Nix's hand while making little vibrations almost similar to purrs.

Kai nods at Florian and Ameri, and heads towards the door, only stopping when he realizes something.

He turns towards Nix ( @silverdragon889) on his heels, and pulls out a small contraption from his pocket, it's the little spider Oriae gave him when they were working on the device to help Nix.

He quickly sets the little guy on Nix's hand, "I want you to have this. His name is Marco and he keeps me safe in all my endeavors, and I think he'll do the same for you."

And he dashed out of the room to find his other distraught best friend.

Kai visibly relaxes, "I'm so glad to hear that." And he turns to Florian ( @eod-agent-13-12), "Are you okay to handle this? I believe I have... A friend to check up on."

Kai is standing next to these two vaguely familiar people, and holding Nix's other hand, actually on the other side of the hospital bed for once.

"Nix. Nix listen to me. I know how tempting it is to always be the hero, to put everyone else in front of yourself in hopes of never losing anyone again. But... Life doesn't work like that. No matter how many times you keep those close to you safe, it doesn't undo the damage you did to yourself."

He gaze shifts away from Nix, memories bubbling up. "I... i would know.... It can do awful things to even the strongest of people.

He looks back at Nix, tears in his eyes, as he mutters "And what good is saving your family if you don't even get to be with them in the end?"
