Liam Pyne

Liam shook his head at the first statement. “No I don’t think that is the case I think you can’t neutralize Alister’s without it rebounding like that again. Again, I really don’t know I’ve never seen something like that happen before so frankly I think that you probably fine for neutralizing emotions but I’d stay away from Alister’s emotions in the future.” As she stood up and moved Liam frowned again it was clear this whole thing was tearing Ashleigh up. Picking up his chair he walked it around the table and set it in front of Ashleigh and pulled her chair around. “Sit down.”

Gently tugging Ash down into the chair he very delicately took her hands. “Stop blaming yourself. There is no one who could have possibly known what would happen. If you hadn’t help lod only knows what would have happened to Alister. You did the right thing and luckily I’m here and we can figure this out. I don’t know if you can affect the Outsider and I’m not sure that any of you should try. This thing is dangerous and I can’t reasonably let the three of you put yourself in harm’s way.”

Letting go of Ashleigh’s hands Liam looked from Alister to Paulina. No one else had shown up which was to be expected. Why had these three shown up though? Guilt? Curiosity? Did it really matter? They had no idea what they were trying to put themselves in front of and he couldn’t reasonably let them do it. But who ask could help? This thing had turned him on his family without a second thought. How was he suppose to fight it all on his own. Maybe they could affect the Outsider but how dangerous would it be for them to even try? Liam waited still sitting across from Ashleigh as he mulled over the thoughts quietly.

Ashleigh reached out, and smacked Liam across the head. "Stop trying to figure out how to send us away so we won't get hurt" She said, "Thats why we're here, isn't it? To learn how we can put ourselves in harms way and survive. We all had a hand in this, whether or not it would have happened, we fueled it, from what you've said" The sudden change from self blaming to this was almost a whiplash like motion for Ashleigh, "if you think any of us will let you face this alone, then you're delusional"

She looked around at the others, as if daring them to say something else, colour flooding her cheeks as she spoke, "Jeez, Liam, I live in a dangerous state all the time. May as well be useful, and maybe learn a little bit of control" She said, her tone now soft again.

She lay a hand on the bracelet, not to assure herself that it was still there, but rather in an almost testing way. "We're here" She seemed to be quite steady, and she let out a slow breath, for the moment it seemed like she wouldn't lose control.

"So What's your take in this Vedika? What exactly do you think happened back there?" He asked while glancing around the room.

Vedika blinked at him in mild confusion. "Something exploded," she said without putting much thought into it, "Maybe that boy with Ashleigh explodes or something." Vedika knew that Ash had telekinetic powers on top of her ability to feel and project emotions, but until she knew the truth, she would do her best to deny Ashleigh's guilt, to herself and to Jason.

Vedika walked into the kitchen with Jason, where the meeting was taking place, and from the looks of things, about to wrap up. "Hi," she said, smiling, "sorry we're late."

Jason nodded as vedika spoke. When they entered the room Jason could feel his guy slightly tighten, the atmosphere was tense. Ashleigh's cheeks were flushed a bright red, her body language read slightly embarrassed. But her gaze was sharp and unwavering. She was face to face with a startled Liam. Part of him wanted to defuse the situation, however he wasn't cognizant of the context so he decided to keep his mouth shut on the matter.

"Sorry we didn't hear the announcement in the infirmary, what did we miss?" Jason asked. His gaze shifted to allister, who appeared to be fine for the most part. Jason felt partly guilty about the situation. He hadn't held back in the sparring, which had pushed Allister to the edge as well. He thought that was most likely the cause for Allisters issue that Ashleigh had to alleviate.
