About 2 weeks prior, IC.
Gaia punched her pillow and slammed her head directly into it before groaning. She had a killer migraine with the new voices in her head, accompanied well by the broken rib from... fuck... what had even caused
that part of her mixed bag of issues right now.
Out of all the people in Denver that have powers, I get stuck with you two.Oh yeah, that was a new personality in her mind. Good old Limbo, not helping the situation and making it worse.
Hush, you fuck.Ah yes, Whip's here too, now. Not only did Gaia have to deal with her brother's death, she had to deal with both a borderline-insane personality and an abusive one too, and the fun didn't stop there, oh no. The migraine that was going on was due to their banter being so incredibly fucking loud in her head. It was just fantastic.
Ooh, this kitty has claws. Quite fitting for someone like yourself, considering how you died and all.Whip stayed dead silent in Gaia's head.
What? Cat got your tongue?"Say one more motherfucking word Limbo, and I'll get Mantis to beat the shit out of you." Gaia wasn't fucking around. She woke up and knew that Judah had done something to Limbo that sent her like this. Maybe it was his power fucking with her, she didn't know. She just was tired of the bickering.
Please. Tell him to not hold back, while you're at it.As tempting of a choice as that was, Gaia couldn't. Limbo knew things that were essential to Lethal Force's efforts, as shit as this team was now, and that was essential to the missions now. Plus, the Community needed to fall more than ever. Zach and Whip were one thing, but Dunn...?
It was personal.
"... look, I don't know why the fuck you two are now in my head in place of my brother, and frankly I don't care. What I do know, is that I'm the motherfucking dominant personality here." Gaia stood and walked around her room, clutching her head.
"Like it or not, I'm the one in charge of both of you. We're playing by my rules, now." She walked over to the mirror and gazed in it.
"Who are you really, Limbo?" As soon as her name was said, the image in the mirror changed to reflect reality as Limbo appeared there.
"W-what?!"Oooh, pretty girl. Can't say I haven't hooked up with a few of you."What's going on he-" She was cut off preemptively from finishing her question.
"Like it or not, Limbo, you're my hostage now. You've been put in the hands of Lethal Force. There's only one way out, now." Gaia smiled as she fell back onto her bed, wincing slightly from the pain in her side due to the broken rib.
"I suggest we all become friends, because we'll be getting to know eachother for a looooong time."Whip stayed silent. Something had changed in Gaia, and it wasn't anything good, that's for damn sure. Whether she had fallen to the insanity of multiple personalities or she grew more sadistic with Dunn gone was unclear, but it could easily be seen that, just like a lot of men, he was holding her back from her true desires.
"How about we start off with names? Limbo, why don't you go first?"... as if I'd tell you."Ok." Gaia climbed into a more comfortable position.
"It's cool. You'll spill it eventually." All Gaia needed to do at that point was wait for the truth to reveal itself.
"Welcome to Lethal Force, Limbo."~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Present...
@SpiffyGaia was sleeping away in the morning, waiting for Judah to come and check on her. Last night was a doozy for her personalities, and she really needed those sleeping pills to help her nod off. It was the only solace she got at that point. She just wanted Judah to make sure she was okay when he woke up, because if they died, then hoo boy he would not feel right for a

The Wards
Holy Kale, an Important Mission Already?!
Kendall saw the message blip up on their communicator, and got a little bit giddy when they read it in full detail. It was already their first critical mission, and they'd hardly been there for a week! Man, this was so much better than being a vigilante hero. Kendall actually had work that they could do for once! Huzzah!
After running to the bathroom to vomit up a bit of tar, as per their usual morning, Kenall quickly threw on their clothes and grabbed their bag and coat, throwing everything on before setting out from their room. There wasn't much that was going on in there, save the small freezer that Kendall requested being absolutely filled with bags of dormant tar, in case Kendall needed to rebuild her arm in a pinch. Oh, and the half-full bottle of root beer. Gosh, that stuff was good.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kendall seemed to be the second of the Wards to show up, and entered the coffee shop without so much as waiting. They'd been here a few times before as a real customer, always getting a hot tea to-go as the kid made their way to school in the mornings, if they had the money. Of course, they normally showed up a bit earlier, and since they switched schools this could very well be one of the last times they did this. Might as well get something, since this could be the last time they could get a drink, and they did have the money today.
The coffee man smiled at Kendall. "Hey-o! Lemme guess, the regular?"
"Yes please!"The coffee man nodded before getting to work. It was pretty early for Kendall to be there, the shop had a few customers but nothing too extensive at that time. Nobody was up for work yet, aside from Kendall, the coffee man, and Lillian, who had been there already. Kendall didn't know for how long she'd been there, but it was whatever.
The coffee man handed Kendall their drink, and let the kid pay for it before snapping a finger and getting back to waiting for another customer. Kendall took the opportunity to go and sit down across from Lillian. They took a sip of their green tea before speaking, a wide smile on their face.
"Lovely weather, isn't it?"
