[The Empress arrives unaccompanied this time, again in her armor but with a soft coverup trailing like water behind her. Her expression is regal, as usual, but her eyes betray exhaustion.

She nods to Commander Jones as he stands in the drop bay.]

Commander. How fares Vengeance?

@empress-mizuki

Resting well, despite his attempts to leave. I'm sure you know the sort, can't relax even when ordered to. Evie's been a huge help about that, though.

*He paused, not entirely sure if he should ask. Eventually, he decides that if he would like to be the Empress' friend, perhaps it would be best to.*

And how about you, your Highness? Have you been able to take some time to refresh yourself?

[long-live-evie]

*Evie took a moment, letting Don's words sink in before making a move. Hesitant at first, then calmly, she approached him, reaching up and softly ruffling the bubbles on his little sprite's head. Looking up at Don, her eyes were full of empathy. They really were in the same boat here.*

Don... I know even less about him than you do, but I do know that I wouldn't want to be around someone I blamed for a near-death situation. If he's here, loving and caring for you, he couldn't possibly hold that against you at the same time. That's... just not how love works.

I can't speak to your relationship at all, really... I'm barely able to process my own sometimes. But me loving John has put targets on both our backs. Anyone who wants to hurt me would target him, and vice versa. Or if they simply wanted to kill one of us, the other would be targeted by association. John knows that, and he still loves me.

*She chuckled slightly, her eyes drifting to the water sprite before being pulled down by Nada tugging on her pants. She reached down and picked her little sprite up, snuggling him.*

He doesn't just love me, though. He keeps me close and refuses to let me face my problems and fears alone. Despite all the danger that comes just from me being near him, John keeps me right by his side and he won't let me try to protect him by keeping my distance or keeping secrets. I'm so scared that everything I've done will catch up to me one day and he'll suffer my consequences on top of the repercussions of 2,500 years of absolute hell, but he just...

He just tells me that he loves me and he has my back, and that's enough for him...

*She buried her face in Nada's wispy violet smoke before looking back up at Don.*

I guess we're both rambling now, heh...

*There's a polite knock on your door around dinner time. Evie is standing outside with a steaming crockpot, her little void sprite playing around her ankles.*

Don? I heard you were sick, so I made you something! ❤️💙

@long-live-evie

[Despite the circumstances, Megalo Don answered the door with his usual promptness, though lacking in his usual attire. Instead, he was wearing a pair of shark pajama bottoms and a white t-shirt. He had a pink blanket draped over his head, using it not unlike a shawl.]

Hello, Evie. Come on in. I'd say that food smells delicious, but I can't smell much of anything through this stuffed-up nose of mine.

[The shark's disgruntled expression softened at the sight of the void sprite.]

It seems to me that the voiding is doing better... let me see where the little one ran off to. Perhaps the two can entertain themselves while we catch up.

Hayden was sitting at the bar working on the books while a few other members of the White Heart Syndicate made a mess of the place. “I hope you guys are planning on picking up after yourselves. I’d actually like to get some sleep tonight rather than staying awake till the sun comes up scrubbing table tops.” He sighed.

“You’ll get over it, Keys.” One of them scoffed.

He rolled his eyes, about to turn his attention back to the books when he heard the door open. He frowned when he saw a group of people he didn’t recognize, watching the other syndicate members bristle. “Oi! We’re closed. Sign on the door even says so.”

“You gonna keep insulting me at my own dinner table, Zeus, or am I going to need to cut you down to size?”

The kitsune didn’t look up from his food as he spoke, waiting to see if the god would apologize or say something snarky again. “Does my relationship with your brother make you feel threatened? Is your ego really that big? Or is it just that you’d rather I be moaning for you every night and not him?”

Another day, another run to another new group Titus was tasked with. There was something off about these guys. He could feel it the second he walked through the door. He sent a quick text to Kehlani knowing if anyone was going to trust a bad feeling text it would be her. He felt almost relieved when he read her response.

incoming sms message (Lani): on standby, Bambi. Get to the bottom of it.

Ty took a deep breath, dawning the stoic expression he'd almost mastered at this point before joining the group in the kitchen. Eyes scanned the room for threats "Read their body language. Micro expressions in their faces will always be a dead giveaway." came Harley's voice in the back of his head.

As he sat down, letting these men weigh their goods while he counted the money, his eyes landed on another male. He'd delivered to this group enough times to know he didn't recognize the face. "Who's he? You didn't give the boss a proper headcount. You know the rules about that shit." He didn't need to look at his phone to send out a text, typing it up discretely and slipping his phone back into his pockets. "No extras without a warning. You know my boss is gonna want me to ask him questions right? Better not be any shady shit."

outgoing sms (Lani): there's an extra head, might need an assist in case they get bitchy over me asking the usual questions

*Evie reached up and caught Jones' hand in hers.*

No, I can take care of him, but I want you here too, if you can stay... I always want you with me when I can have you, John... ❤️

But you can take the first rest, I'll stay up with Venge until you get up, okay?

*Summoned to one of the guest rooms by @officialjohnjones , you arrive to find him helping @vengeance-jones-fn into bed. Venge looks far the worse for wear, and it's Jones who looks up to talk to you.*

Hey Evie, seems our friend here decided to be an overachiever and attract the anger of not one, but five Oni!

*Venge chuckles weakly at that, but that changes to coughing. Jones gives him some water, which helps to calm it down.*

*Evie stared in shock at Vengeance, who was covered in burn marks and black lines that looked like brands.*

Wha-... What happened to you?! Did you get attacked again?!

*She ran to look him over, but didn't know what to do with what she saw. Instead she turned to Jones, confused, but anger starting to flare.*

John, please tell me there's something I can do! Who hurt him?! Are they dead or do I have to hunt them down??

Salem hadn’t slept well in days. He was out of the medications used to treat his nightmare disorder. When he finally did crash it was curled up on Emrys’ couch.

As he started to doze he found himself hoping the extreme exhaustion would counteract the horrific nightmares he had gotten so used to experiencing. The devil has wrapped his wicked hand around this poor boy’s mind! The words rang out in his head like he was hearing the bishop say them for the first time all over again. He didn’t notice it, but he’d flinched when he heard it despite always hearing it just as he closed his eyes every fucking night.

Mai Shiranui had finished training in the dojo and was focusing on getting herself her power drink. She had been working hard so she can be ready for her rematch with Chun-li. Who she saw the other day working out hard to get in good shape. She knew she already was in good shape, but perhaps those teases from Juri got to her.

She began mixing her drink in her bottle while chuckling a little to herself. "That chick can work out as much as she wants, but she'll still have those strong thick thighs of hers."

Torunn didn't know how she ended up here. The last thing she remembered was fighting this group of armed stone monsters. The next, she ended up finding herself in this world. An open world that didn't look familiar to her.

She looked around wondering where she's at and if she can find someone to talk to. "I just hope its someone who I can understand and isn't speaking in a language I have no idea about."

As she made her way around, she hears someone in trouble and begins running over to see who's in danger.

Kari Kamiya is seen in her place as she got ready for her date. She couldn't wait to go out and hoped it will go well, especially if she can get him to her place after. As she puts on her outfit, she saw how tight her shorts were around her butt, along with her shirt tightening around her chest.

She could have sworn they still fit her. She should have gone out and buy some clothes before her date.

She hears the knock on the door and goes to open it. "Oh hey! Sorry, I was um just getting ready before you got here," she replied to her boyfriend.

See ya when we return in 3 weeks. The shop will reopen on 12/16 at 5pm CT. Until then, things will probably be pretty quiet around here because I'm very ready to be offline. Later!! ✌

Ahsoka Tano is seen down in the lower levels, looking for work to continue paying for her place. She was no longer a Jedi, so she needed to find work. In order to pay for her place she was staying, while also getting food to fill her belly. Ahsoka sighed knowing she wasn't going to be able to find a proper job without getting her hands dirty.

"They want me to steal from a known crime lord or to steal from the Jedi Temple to retrieve a lightsaber from one of the fallen Jedi," Ahsoka knew both of these would either get her killed or arrested. She knew the Jedi Temple needed to be warned about this, but didn't understand why this person wanted the lightsaber.

"Well, I'll need to find work somewhere in order to pay for my next rent," said Ahsoka as she stops in her track when she sensed something. "What was that?"
