IC: [Naona]"Oh good, because we're off to see what the heck is going on with Tillian and to see if his magical recovery powers are contagious.""
IC: Dehkaz"Wouldn't I like some of that," the Toa of Magnetism said, swinging his legs around so that he was sitting on the edge of the bed. Ingnoring the protest from some of the doctors, he stood up and made for the door."Well, would you look at that, I can walk."
IC: [Naona]"Well, let's go," she said, walking out the door.
IC: Lux Saran - Ga-Wahi Shore, Casa Juturna"Well, at least that's two of us," Lux said, still momentarily dazed, "So, you want to get something to eat?"IC: Gunner - Ga-Wahi Fjord, Infernavika"Indeed, I am," I said, focusing on not complaining, "And I'm sure if you talked to Raknar, you might be able to get some widgets. Maybe."I glanced down, to notice Mimira hand me a cookie, "Aw, thank you, kid."-Void
IC: DehkazThe Toa of Magnetism followed, trying to work his injured arm. Last thing he wanted was for it to cramp up. "He's probably gone, by the way," he said after a while, "Ryker, I mean. I didn't kill him, and he's not one to stick around."IC: HakilveThe four armed Toa shrugged. "Sounds good to me, but after we get your head checked out, man. No telling what a table can do to you."IC: EmbokWith that, the Toa of Plasma started off towards the beach. Despite having lived in Ga-Koro almost her entire life, Nei still seemed to like going there. Which was fine with Embok. He found it easiest to keep his thoughts off the past when with the Ga-Matoran.
IC: Krayn"I don't know that the word 'gallant' is applicable," Krayn smiled wryly. "But yes, let's go."He opened the door, and gestured toward it. "After you, Hari."
IC: Tillian (Shop, Ga-Koro)"It's important to me," he said quietly, holding Liara's head to his chest as he quietly cried. "I want to help, Liara. Whatever's bothering you, please, tell me, I can--"Suddenly, Tillian's thoughts clicked into place, and he began to realize what exactly was going on, why Skyra had blown up, why Liara was holding him so tightly and crying so heavily, and why she had been drinking more in the last few days than she had in all the time Tillian had known her. Engage shutdown. Situation critical."Liara..."We're going down."Is it me?"We are all going to die.IC: Cipher (Casa Juturna, Ga-Wahi)"Hey, Reaver!" Cipher yelled out. "Are we, uh...still in Ga-Wahi? I've been scared to move, I might get lost..."-Teezy
IC: LiaraLiara didn't respond, at least not with words. She started crying harder, and she shakily stood.Without saying a word, she started walking toward the door, and reached for the one flask she knew she still had left. She found it, and went to take a drink.... Only to find it was empty. Without even a muttered curse, she dropped it. The flask shattered on the floor while she walked aimlessly down the street.Now you've done it. Way to go, Liara. Selfish b**** indeed.
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)As Liara wandered hopelessly through the street, two lithe, tanned arms slipped around her abdomen and held her in a hug. Tillian."It's okay," he whispered. "We're gonna figure this out, alright?"-Teezy
IC: Liara"No, it's not." Liara replied. Never in her life had her voice sounded more miserable, or so completely hopeless. Dejected. "I had my chance. I had my chance to speak up, I had my chance to try. I ignored it."With relative ease, she broke out of the embrace. Pushing off with one foot, she activated her mask, and started to fly slowly forward. "It's time to pick up the pieces and move on."
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)"So what now, Liara?" Tillian asked, not even twitching from his spot; he merely leaned against the hut and watched the ex-Casseticon slowly flit forward with a pensive look on his face. "You just go? Make your fortune somewhere else?"He sighed and ran his hands over his face."I just lost Skyra," he said quietly. "I can't lose you, too."IC: Raknar (Infernavika, Ga-Wahi)"So, Perkahn. What are these Bearers using as a hideout?"-Teezy
IC: LiaraLiara stopped, landing lightly on the ground a few feet away. She turned, and looked at Tillian with eyes still brimming with tears. "I don't want to leave. But I don't see how I can stay."She clasped her hands behind her back, and looked away. "Your wife would want me gone if she caught on, anyway."
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)"Marriage is a two-way street," he observed idly. "Emotia can't actually kick you out of the A-Team unless I approve. And since I would rather take a shot to the head from Onuzek's new toy than let you leave...looks like it's a tie. Don't go, Liara. Please."Tillian's eyes began to water a bit, and he suddenly moved his hand to wipe them."Oh, God, um...frickin' sand blowing everywhere, I can't even see straight without my eyes watering..."-Teezy
IC: LiaraLiara was quiet for a moment, turning her head to look at Tillian again. Don't do it, Liara. It's just going to lead to more trouble.The silence stretched on for several minutes. "I don't want you in trouble with Emotia. But you're my.... Friend. If you really want me to stay, I'll stay."
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)As soon as the sentence was out of her mouth, Tillian pounced, wrapping her in a huge hug."I want you to stay, I want you to stay, I want you to--"ZZZZZZZZZZZAP!-Teezy
IC: Liara"Ohmigawd, I'm so sorry!"Liara screamed, as Tillian suddenly went limp i her arms. "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..."
IC: (Hari)"Such a gentlemen." Hari smiled, with all these distractions they kept on forgetting to travel back to the house and pick up Krayn's gear. She felt responsible for that, and inwardly grimaced, if he had his weapons, maybe some of the problems they ran into earlier could have been handled better. Then again with what happened with Dalia, perhaps it was better he didn't have the weapons.
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)Tillian twitched slightly and tried to look at the hand buzzers in Liara's hands, but merely twitched again and made a motorboat sound with his mouth."All the pretty surfboards..." he mumbled. -Teezy
IC: LiaraLiara quickly stowed the buzzers on her waist, and muttered to herself. "What the Karz do I do for an electric shock? His mind seems to not be working right..... Something surprising might snap him out of it.... Karzahni. I really hope Emotia doesn't see this.""Sorry Til, this is for your own good." Liara bent her head down, and kissed him.
IC: (The Infernavika)"That question, Captain," Perkahn replied, his finger instinctively flicking forward toward Raknar, "I can't answer. What I can say is how we find it. From Tillian's place, the Mark Bearers, as was confirmed by several of the wedding's guests, fled westward. I've also asked around Ga-Koro; people fitting their descriptions have been sighted in the area recently even before the wedding started, but they don't seem to have stayed in any known inn. The explanation is that they most likely have a base in Ga-Wahi. West of Tillian's home, there's no good place for a hideout - if I had a map on my hands right now I'd stick a dagger in it - but the Ga-Wahi forest."
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)Tillian's eyes suddenly flew open as Liara's lips met his, and for several seconds, he didn't have the muscle capacity necessary to try and pull away. Then, when he regained it, he just lay there for a second or two and let her kiss him, silently hoping Skyra didn't come back. After about thirty seconds - give or take - had passed, Tillian pulled away."Um...is this the part where I make a joke about prescriptions?"-Teezy
IC: Liara"This is the part where I really hope Enotia didn't see my medical methods." Liara answered, a small smile on her face. "Though feel free to make the joke anyway."
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)"I'm pretty sure that there's still electricity in my brain," he said, blinking several times. "I'm, uh...kinda drawing a blank. Wow..."IC: Raknar (Infernavika, Ga-Wahi)"Alright. Doom, move us up the coast. We can look for them at the forest. Perkahn, you'd better be right," I muttered as Doomslayer began to burst into song."DOOMIE, DOOMIE/STEERIN' A BOAT/THE LONGUR HE STEERS/THE LONGUR IT FLOATS~"-Teezy
IC: Liara"Am I that shockingly bad?" Liara teased, the smile widening, though her eyes stayed sad.
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)"I, uh...definitely not, no," he said, still blinking. "So, you're, um...staying?"-Teezy
IC: Liara"Like I tried to say, if you want me to." Liara answered quietly, her smile waning slightly.
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)"I do," he replied, rubbing his now-dry shirt and looking up at her. "More than anything."Several heavy moments of silence before he poked her in the abdomen and grinned."If you want, we could finish at the tailor's and then get some breakfast..."-Teezy
IC: Liara"That might be a good idea. I'm wearing a fancy outfit, and I hate the darn thing." Liara said, her smile widening slightly. "Not to mention, I'm hungry."
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)"Welp, do you want to eat first or get a--Um...Liara? You're still hugging me. I can't stand." -Teezy
IC: Liara"Oh, I'm sorry!"Liara released Tillian, and stood herself, wiping the dirt from her skirt. She held out a hand to help Tillian up.
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)"No, no, you're good. You're, uh...you're a quality hugger," he said, taking her hand and standing up. "We should go and get some breakfast first, I'm pretty hungry."He turned around quickly, but as he spun, Liara could have sworn she'd caught the faintest hint of a blush...-Teezy
IC: LiaraLiara smiled, and followed Tillian. "Alright, Tillian. Let's go get some breakfast. Where do you want to go?"
IC: Nei:"So... Dad, have you done anything interesting lately?" Nei asked, enjoying the view. Normally, even to other Matoran, Nei was small. She could get used to being as tall as Embok.
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)"No, you choose," he said. "I came along on this trip for you, you choose where you want to go..."-Teezy
IC: Liara"Well, tell me this then. Tell me where I can get some darn pancakes and bacon. Actually, coffee too. I have a raging hangover."
IC: Tillian (Ga-Koro)Tillian popped a flash of Bula juice out of his pocket and handed it to Liara."That should help with the hangover," he said.-Teezy
IC: LiaraLiara took a long sip, and grimaced. "I'd tell you to remind me not to drink so much, but we both know it wouldn't do any good."
IC: Sontarok continued walking, going in the direction of the docks.OOC: Open for interaction.
IC: Emotia - Casa Juturna, Ga-Wahi -Emotia still wasn't quite sure what was going on, but she decided that Tillian could handle Liara for now. Emotia had gone off to find Skyra, and concerding that Destiny was still perched near the house, he couldn't of gone too far. "Where are you Daring?" She said as she looked around. She found me staring at the ocean, I was twirling a small dagger in my right hand. I glanced at her. "Oh, hi Emotia..." She just crossed her arms and looked at me. "You know, you really need to go apologize...to both of them, but especially Liara..." I just shrugged and stared at my knife a little more closely. "I wouldn't even know how to begin...though..." I brought the knife even closer to my head. "I think I do know how I could possibly end-"I suddenly found myself on the ground, really dazed, and my head was beating even worse than before. Emotia had apparently just punched me in the face. "Owwww....why did you do that!?" "Well, first of all...you're a complete baka. And secondly...you looked like you were gonna slit yourself." She said as she stared at me from above, her foot firmly on my chest so I couldn't move. "I'm not suicidal! You're just a crazy-" BAM! With a kick to my head I fell unconscious.Emotia sighed, and then grabbed my leg and dragged my unconscious self toward Ga-koro.
IC(Gamelia Auldron [Ga-Koro Gamelia's Beach Goods Shop; talking to Tarkis])
A tear began to roll down Gamelia's face as a smile widens on her face. She hoped that the Le-Matoran couldn't see the tear in the moonlight or from the reflection from the bay."Thank you. No one...has ever truly said something like that. I appreciate it, Tarkis," she adds, turning to face the Matoran. "You're not at all like any of those stuck up musicians. You're a very sweet and handsome being, Tarkis."-Mef Man
