Glad that the feather she had retrieved from the unicorn helped the others a bunch, herself included, at least they could continue the search in less physical discomfort. Seeing the feather dissolve in Leila's hand, she was happy it had served its purpose well and she had a feeling they wouldn't be able to keep it forever. The magnificent stallion left them shortly after that, but she was thankful for the aid it provided them in the harsh fight against the witch and her army of deceased beings. If it hadn't been for Lesley's incredible plan and getting that 'special weapon' on their side, the whole humans/Nobodies versus evil witch could've ended in a disaster.

Seeing Ace hobble past her to get to the front of the group, Jasper was still amazed by how much determination and energy the girl held. While she was feeling down in the slums, the red head was wildly chugging along, looking forward to every battle and challenge with her head held high and positive excitement coursing through her veins. Only one word could describe how she viewed about Ace. Admiration. Not only did she have the whole package mentally, the girl even had big breasts. A bug of some sort buzzed past her ear to snap her out of oncoming bewb jealousy. 'Maybe Nowhere has a wizard who can magically grow your body parts. It'll not only help me, but help Lesley too,' she thought as the corners of her mouth quirked into a slight grin.

[b]"Here Fluffy, Fluffy. It's a bunch of humans trying to get you back to your family. Not a bunch of nasty old witches... Marcooo? We should have really cool theme music. You know, since we've defeated the witch. We're practically unstoppable right now."[/b]

She imagined what'd it'd be like to watch their adventures like it was a movie, with slowmos and sound effects. No doubt it'd be a box office hit. 

Once again, Lesley was getting a piggy back ride and she had to admit, she was a tad bit envious. For two reasons, the first being, she was probably just as tired as the next person and number two, the person giving him a lift was someone she had actually taken a slight "feeling" to. Sometimes she'd get the same emotions around Harper, Haku, and even Song.[s](YEAH MY BAE IS A PLAYAH. Deal wid it XD)[/s] Jasper had always been a stranger to lovey dovey stuff, but since coming to Nowhere, she had become more exposed to that realm. If you asked her what this "feeling" was, she probably wouldn't be able to tell you what it was because she herself isn't really sure. It was like a weird in between where friend, brother, and crush collided which results from her lack of experience. But jelly thoughts were definitely unacceptable at the moment because the poor guy had lost an entire hand that night and it was the least anyone could do to make the pink haired guy feel a little better.

As they arrived at the porch of the nasty hut again where they had found fat-acid-belching-zombie earlier, Jasper's nose had officially gone "noseblind" to the aromas of the place. Most likely caused by the undead slaughter she took on that revealed smells a hundred times worse than this rutty cottage. At first she was really confused as to why they were going there to check again, since they had found nothing the first time. But the points they had made about hidden switches was a possibility. Though it wasn't as grand a home as the mansion in the Forest of Ancients, it was better they checked than completely miss the solution to there lost and found mission.

[b]"Might as well check, right? And if we can't find anything Ace and I could always burn the place down."[/b]

This comment resulted in panicked responses from Harper and Jasper wasn't really liking the sound of burning things down either. Fire was dangerous. Burning was dangerous. And with all of them pooped out and low on energy supply, setting this place on fire wouldn't be of much help, but Riley just chuckled and shrugged it off as a joke. Jasper's right eye twitched a little bit.

It wasn't long until they were on the hunt for a secret button or trapdoor that might be hiding the lost ones.

[b]"Hey, Jasper, Inadi, you guys busy? if you were a witch, where would you keep your secret switches or trap doors?"[/b]

Hesitantly, Jasper poked around the room, but the filth was keeping her from performing the "dig" at her full potential. She clearly knew that all of them, even her, was covered in zombie poop and guts, but her germaphobic urges still kept her at bay. "I don't know," Her shoulders lifted up with a light shrug, "maybe the nastiest, most disgusting corner in this place. Where no one would dare to even go near." At the moment, it was her germ-fearing side speaking out and she didn't really mind what they thought of her weird response.

[b]"Hey, what were you guys doing during that last day of 2013?"[/b]

The question touched on a subject that erupted a feeling of longing and her mind flashed back to New Years Eve. [i]SNAP! CRACKLE! POP![/i] She remembered it, the sound of fireworks splashing the night sky whilst she served late night customers. Their cafe held a special time schedule that day that enforced all workers to stay until all the customers had left. Of course she didn't mind, it wasn't like she had anything planned anyway. No friends, no family. It would've just been her alone in an empty apartment.

Haku was just living out his regular schedule while Leon was attending a party. Harper had the choice of spending it with family, but decided to go out instead. A sense of regret casted over him at that moment and Jasper could see it in his aura. 

[b]"Are we having some sort of confession thing? The folks invited me back home, I don't know why I refused, I guess it had something to do with a pretty argument, so I spent the night out with friends instead, I guess the saying about regret coming last is true. But meh, time waits for no one."[/b]

Most of them had the options of celebrating with other people while she actually had no one except for her non-English speaking boss and a couple of drunk customers sitting at the outdoor table arrangements outside not even bothering to order anything. The lot of the late stayers were only there because Tea Leaf Cafe had an awesome view of the fireworks. Jasper frowned a bit and wished that she had friends and family to hang out with. It was then that she realized how lonesome her life had been back then, how much of a recluse she actually was and she didn't even know it. In fact, she enjoyed it. Being by her lonesome self without companions to talk to. She could have adopted a pet, but she was too much of a dirt freak. Now she wondered what life would be like after all this was over. Would they all still be friends or would they part and never see each other again? Would she be okay with living the loner lifestyle after feeling what it was actually like to have people you could call 'friends'? 

"I was on my way back from work. Same station I go to everyday, but not the same train. Well, at least not the one I was expecting." An exhale seeped slowly out from her nose as she laughed a little at how bizarre it was. Boarding that train was actually the best and worst thing that's ever happened to her. Her eyes were becoming glossy as her laugh continued to strengthen. Anyone watching her probably thought she was going crazy or something.

"Don't you sweethearts worry, we'll totes get you home, okay? That's what we guides are here for!"

Martini made her feel even happier as she finally settled down and wiped her wet eyes dry again. It was now that she could honestly say that she would really miss these people. Getting attached to a person was hard for her, having been abandoned as an adolescent, then being taken in by Rosen, who later left her as well upon passing away from an illness. Her albinism just scared people off in general and because of this, her relationship building skills didn't develop properly, but here she was now, surrounded by others who truly looked out for her, even the Nobodies.

[b]"Has anyone found anything yet?"[/b]

Inspecting the room some more, it was then that she noticed a shining glint on one of the shelves that sported piles of rusty pots and pans above the stove. Approaching it to get a closer look, it was probably the cleanest thing in the entire place. It was a an armour piece, looked like it would've protected the arm. But it wasn't just any scrap of armor, it had engraved designs that were very familiar to patterns she had seen before. Picking up the metal arm plate, she brought it over to Avian to compare the one he had left that didn't get burned by the zombie acid. The carvings were alike in many aspects. Eyes lighting up, she forgot all about how yucky the place was and went hyper mode as she dashed around the room in a much more intense manner of searching than she had done before. "They're here guys. They're here!" She chanted.
