Skype Karaoke night eh. LET'S DO IT. Y'all muthatruckas know you wanna hear some puny Asian chick rapping to white boy music /can't sing

Post is up! Sorry if my previous post with sending Trixie after Moira & Sy was a bit random, especially considering I didn't really do much with it this time. ^^; I think I had something in mind, at least interactions-wise, but forgot it/went with something entirely different instead. ...I'm gonna avoid posting at 1am from now on lololol /orz

Hope the stuckiness goes away soon, Kei!
EDIT. Sorry for not posting last night like I intended to. I got really sick yesterday and thought id be awake enough to post, but I was bedridden most of the night. I'm still in bed feeling like poo so >< I'll post when I'm able to.
<3 <3 <3 (skip to 1:59 for the sexy)
LIBBY! :D Now you know what having one puppy is like around the house. Try for two, huehuehue

"Agh... my head," Trixie muttered, peeling herself off the wall her ride had careened into. Sheer horror had gripped onto her as she rode the summon like a bull just moments before Lucien managed to maneuver it into somewhere safe. More than once she had nearly fallen into the abyss below, and she could only breathe relief as she had been spared that fall. ... Until she realized Selan, Lucien, and Xandra had plummeted straight into it.

"No!" she cried out and began to hop across platforms and panels of all shapes. But it was far too late - the three were far too out of reach. Trixie skid to a stop though when suddenly the cog she ran atop began to plummet at a nasty speed. She yelped at this, hunkering down and grabbing onto an edge to protect herself. The fall ended with buoyancy, as if she were on a water ride - and the prankster could easily see everyone around her. Including the three that had fallen. "Ohh thank cheezits for th... huh."

Now the cog she stood upon began to shrink. She quickly jumped to her feet and backed into the center. "Wh, what's going on?" Was she sinking?

A crow cried out overhead, and behind her she could hear something splat on another, larger platform. The black goop morphed into an indistinguishable figure - although its voice was what pierced her. "Trixie... come this way. I will help you."

She didn't think. With the platform beneath her nearly gone, she leapt for the figure's outstretched hand - only to be yanked roughly out of the air and tossed behind it with superhuman force. Trixie shrieked as she soared through the skies, heading straight towards where Moira and Syed were perched.



"Xandra!" Amy called out as the metallurgist was met with the same fate as Lucien and Selan, all of whom had began tumbling down into the abyss below. She had managed to protect the fallen Lisette from any further injury with a small barrier, but the other three were... It wasn't long before all the other platforms in midair dropped as well, now resting atop the abyssal sea. The three were safe, but for how long before everyone sank?

And then... was that... Largo? Amy could only watch with anxiety as the massive man moved to attack Estelle, doing enough to thankfully send her flying back, as opposed to severing her entirely. Then he proceeded to attack Aria and Lute. The former's arm was gashed - a minor wound compared to what could've would've been if she had not moved in time - but the duo managed to escape in time.

Amy snarled as she chanted a healing spell. Her eyes trailed along the illusionist's path, watching as the gash on her arm began to glow a golden hue. Warmth gripped the wound before sinking into it, and within moments the pain was numb. The blood too had stopped, though the cut was not wiped away entirely. Amy let out a silent breath of relief - her healing prowess was improving.

"Lisette, come on, let's keep moving." Like Aria, Amy too did not know where else to head to - only that they had to keep on their feet. With the mass beneath her feet sinking, she weaved her way to the platforms nearest to her to find Selan nearby. Once Amy found a stable enough mass, she stood still and hummed a brief spell for the dancer in hopes of getting her back on her feet. Thankfully Lucien and Xandra were close by as well.

But... Marcus and Don were still hidden amongst this sea of debris. Amy snarled to herself. "Where the fuck are they?"
I'll be posting in a bit as well. ^^

EDIT: Still writing! It'll be up soon >w<

Pew pew pew! Trixie continued to fire rounds at the Dream Eater, but all they did was sink further and further into its oopy-goopy skin. "I make the rules and nothing you do will be able to hurt me," it taunted, removing the arrow pinned to its eye like nothing.

"That's cheating! Cheating!!" Trixie called back. She looked back at Syed, who was shifting his hands around. Some gears soon began to shift around them - horizontally rather than vertically. "Ooh!" The prankster watched with sparkling eyes. She was ready to risk jumping across the cogs and gears the way Estelle and Atlas had been, but Syed bringing some of them closer together just made things a lot easier for all of them.

She prepared to charge closer to it, aiming to snag its attention with both annoying bullets and proximity - when suddenly a large black cat landed beside her! Trixie gasped, holding her guns still on the Dream Eater but looking instead at the feline beside her. It had been quite sometime since she had seen any cats, and of course during a nightmare sequence one would pop up. "Deep breaths, deep breaths, deep breaths. It's just Lucy's. It's just Lucy's."

The cat took a moment to recover and aimed to charge at it again, but Trixie called for him to wait. As much as she didn't want to admit it, felines were much more nimble than her when it came to precise leaping and landing. After the cat's previous attempts, going at it for a straight up attack wasn't the smartest idea. But if he were to approach the monster again with something different in mind...



Atlas' efforts had tilted a tower in Amy's and Xandra's direction, giving them a means to align themselves with the others. Amy looked to the other and nodded before hitting up the building alongside her. The magician was quick to assist them, before flash stepping to a cog a level above them. The two girls moved onto another platform and continued running this way until they reached a safe spot, one that wasn't dropping out of control.

After a short breather Amy took in her surroundings, looking for who was in immediate need of a healing spell or defense buff. Anything to help. "Xandra," she said, still eying the battle area. "I can't see Marcus or Don from here. Do you think they're..." her voice trailed off momentarily. "...is that--"

Another round of loud rapidfire went off. Anyone looking in Trixie's direction could see her riding atop Lucien's summon as they encircled the Dream Eater in hopes of snagging its attention. With bullets flying in from the distance, it would be easier for the duo to dodge attacks this way. Presumably.
Calling next post! Fox, I hope you don't mind if I use your cat a little :3


Thaum: The Tower - 7F (Dr. Dream's Laboratory)

Trixie felt a warmth embrace her as she remained crouched on the ground. She didn't have to look up to know it was Syed, thanks to his body structure and ring. As he tugged her closer to him, she allowed her face to drift from her hands to her chest and leaned against him like a pillow. Words weren't needed for this type of comforting, and Syed was well aware of that; just some physical reassurance that everyone's okay was enough.

Not long after, someone else knelt in front of them. Trixie managed to shift her eyes enough to see that it was Lute - that weirdo they first met at that restaurant. She hadn't seen him at all since, and yet he approached her anyway, mindful of personal space and potential sudden freak-outs. "We're going to get out of here soon, okay? All of us," he said with a warm voice.

Trixie managed a smile - a shaky one, but a smile nonetheless. She reached forward to him, as if reaching to hug, but only got her hand far enough to touch his shoulder. Lucien pitched in with reassurance as well. Trixie looked to the summoner next, then back to Syed. She sniveled, eyes barely able to keep the tears out, but her smile widened. "Thanks guys..."

A sudden crash from the opposite end of the lab caught her eyes next. Atlas continued to curse, bewildered from something going on back there. Trixie dared not ask what it was - though the thing made itself obvious enough. Dr. Dream's corpse began to rise. The prankster let out a shrill once the scientist's skin began to morph itself.

"You both die first!"

"Amy!!"

The cleric didn't even have enough time to properly defend herself with a spell. She lifted her arms to brace herself for the impact, only to be sent flying across the room along with Xandra. Trixie nearly lurched for her, but the room's sudden change in scenery cut her off. The prankster was now atop one of the many floating cogs alongside Syed, with Lute and Moira on different pieces not far from them. Trixie wobbled getting to her feet, but used Syed as a crutch. Shakily she withdrew her guns - before unloading rapidfire on the mutated monster once it finished its second transformation.



"Ugh..." Amy brought a hand to her face as she sat herself up. Her eyes were scrunched tight in an effort to soothe her dazed vision, which she much preferred to seeing the warped battlefield they were stranded on now. "What the fuck!?"

Despite Atlas' advances, the Dream Eater made its intentions very clear with who it was to target next. Its cannon was loaded, aimed right towards the two girls it had swatted away earlier. Amy's eyes widened. From the sounds of it, there were a few others on different cogs and gears directly behind the duo as well, who would be caught in the blast if they didn't react fast. Luckily though, the one Amy and Xandra were on was a feasible size.

"Get down!" she called before latching onto the metallurgist and ducking away from the white-hot blast in time. Due to their shifts in movement, the platform they were on jerked down, now out of proportion with the others that were aligned behind it. If they weren't careful with their balancing, the disorientation could throw them right to their abyssal demise below.
Yeah I agree with Buns! They make communication in general easier too since both are more immediate. But we just chat random stuff from time to time (not even RP shenanigans), and it'd be nice to have you join in our random bagel-stealing adventures too haha! It'd feel a lot more complete if you were there too haha. :)
