That's acceptable to me if it is to you.
*Glances at Star then back to you*
Is this you officially agreeing to tag along?

@Valiance

If Prism is going and it's dangerous, I can agree to that. But you should know that I'm not really built for "bodyguard" type jobs.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Hey, you said you were recruiting non-exclusively powerful people to help, right? How about we bring grandma with us? She could make a great bodyguard while we snoop around.

@Memory

I—eh? Bodyguard?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

It's for all of our protection, trust me. Talking to any of you here in the open would be very dangerous.

@Valiance

Who's hunting you? I don't love the idea of Prism being in danger, either.

G-grandma!?

@Memory

*Squeezes you tightly*
The one and only.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*With a flick of the wrist, I expand the veil so you lie beneath it with the two of us*

@Valiance

Blinking someone out of sight without warning is concerning, you know?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*Waits and watches*

@Valiance

*Slows near the ground, but still hits the planet with enough speed to crater the planet's surface where Prism was standing before*
Woah! My landings are rusty...
*Shakes off the snow like a dog*
Prism! Hey, you okay buddy!?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*Frowns*
There will be.

@GalaxyRaider

*Stares, wide-eyed*
Are you kidding?? I trusted you!!

<Snipped quote by Meta>

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*the blue strings come out of the book and slowly wrap up you, freezing the parts it touches*
You are merely an asset that has escaped.

@Zeal

*Pulls forward against the bindings*
I will embed this moment so deep into my soul that not even Melody will ever forgive you!!

@Zeal

*Grits my teeth*
I hate making enemies.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Not even the important part! I can’t have someone out there wandering around who has the intention of hurting their mom!

<Snipped quote by Zeal>

*The device warps you into the lab between me and Harmony*
I made up my mind about you from the start. The only thing that changed is how it’s going to be done.

@GalaxyRaider

You lunatic! There is no Melody without me!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Not that promise. The one before. “If you cross us. If you run away. If you hurt them...” Ring a bell?
*The lights dim here in my lab as it enters a lockdown state, red lights flashing in a silent alarm*
How about what you said afterward? Or what you proceeded to do to them despite my pleas for you not to. Practically begging.

@GalaxyRaider

*My jaw drops in incredulity*
I hit a pause button, and you’re stabbing me in the back?!?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*Swallows*
I made a promise. A promise about what would happen following me sparing you, depending on a course of action you took.
*Taps the bottom of each key with my hands and they disappear*

@GalaxyRaider

And both of us kept our sides of the deal. No bad blood.
