[H3]Morgann[/H3] [b]"Gross,"[/b] Morgann grimaced, hesitant to even breathe after the spray of bile had dissipated. What if it smelled bad? Would it even matter? She was around elephants and Goddess knows what at the circus, so perhaps she shouldn't be such a girl about the possibility of an undesirable scent. After a few moments, she inhaled slowly before letting the cool breath escape her lips once more, relieved that the bile left no scent. She pulled her wand out of her coat, readying herself for the chance that the creature might attack. Realizing she wasn't going to get an answer nor was the tall figure going to pursue her, Morgann watched helplessly as the woman was attacked before shoving her wand back into her suit, dashing over, and holding her arms out, staring directly up at the attacker. [b]"I'm not going to move until I receive some sort of explanation,"[/b] she explained slowly through her clenched pearly whites, [b]"as to why you are attacking this woman."[/b] She swung one of her gloved hands around to hold up over her face, partially to get his attention and partially to not stare at his face. [b]"As far as you know, I am an innocent bystander who merely works at the circus,"[/b] she went on, narrowing her eyes through the mask's white film, [b]"so I could damn well put you out of business if you laid a hand on me. You think I'm bluffing, you can take it up with my boss after you crush my face or completely dislocate my jawbone."[/b] [h3]Gale[/h3] Gale listened from her tall roommate's shoulder to the conversation that the parasite was having with her host. From what she remembers, Brandy had told her at some point that the parasite was named Pharona and the host Angus, but she wasn't quite sure. During the period that Brandy maintained control, memories and conversations seemed to blur together to her, and she didn't particularly care to recall, to be honest. Her parasite had truly heard and experienced plenty that she was not eager to remember, and she was just fine with that. After hearing the parasite confirm her thoughts, she nodded sleepily and flicked her ears before closing her eyes again. [b]"Pharona's voice is so chipper though,"[/b] she thought sadly, [b]"I actually like hearing it. Too bad I can't see what she or anyone else look like."[/b] [b]"Oh wait,"[/b] she murmured, sitting up and reaching into one of her boots to grab her bandana. As she delicately wrapped it around her head, she began to address Angus's worries. [b]"We will not harm the two soldiers,"[/b] she spoke in a somber tone, proceeding to pull a couple of black rubber bands out of her shoe and pulling her spiky, unruly locks into two pigtails. [b]"The mafia does not care for such petty crimes that we have committed, such as the one here today,"[/b] she explained, moving closer so that she could curl up in the crook of Ash's neck, [b]"they only care for the critical hits that we are ordered to take out. Believe me when I say that Ash has already intervened, so I do not think you will have to do so."[/b] Gale tucked her knees up against her chest and curled up in the gigantic jacket that Angus had given her, enjoying the warmth and protection from the wind that it provided. Goddess, it was getting chilly. [b]"If you're so cold all the time, why don't you wear an actual coat instead of this stupid down vest?!"[/b] Brandy roared from within the depths of her mind, and though she winced, she did not say anything about how loud his static voice was. [b]"Brandy,"[/b] she began silently, her thin eyebrows furrowing together, [b]"shut your mouth."[/b] Brandy remained silent for a few moments before responding, [b]"Gale, [i]your[/i] mouth is [i]my[/i] mouth, remember?"[/b] Groaning quietly, she clawed at the sides of her head before deciding it wasn't worth arguing over.
