[code]INTERACTIONS[/code][@Punished GN][@FernStone][/center]

[color=98FB98]“Oh,”[/color] was all Jasper could say as the agent took off her mask, revealing her Adjoined nature to him.  He went through a few emotions quickly, each one staying on his face for a second or less.  Surprise, confusion, curiosity, before ultimately inspiration. Jaspers eyes darted from the woman’s antennas, to her thorn like protrusions, to the red vine-like tendrils that covered the frame of her face.  He slowly led his gaze back to the woman’s and blinked as he felt an agent unlocking his cuffs, and pulling him back up to a standing position.  He flashed a half smile as he turned away from the woman.  He wondered what kind of apparition bonded to form that appearance, he was not scared by it but he was inspired.  There was a beauty in the colors that he could use, and he began to think of what his next painting might be, and how he’d incorporate these color patterns to it.

Painting.  His mind fixated on the word, and then he shifted his eyes towards the painting he brought.  He’d need to spend quite a bit of time restoring it.  He shifted his eyes over to Jack, who held Auri, and he exhaled.  He hoped they’d be able to heal her, he really did not want to see the power vacuum that her death would cause.  The already fractured coven split and splintered even further.  [color=98FB98]“Why do I care though,”[/color] Jasper thought to himself, [color=98FB98]“I don’t think I’ll be sticking around much longer.”[/color] He sat there, for a moment more, before he looked at Lynn, Lila, and Luca.  He knew they would more than likely stick around, and he also knew that he had to be there to protect them.  [color=98FB98]“Fuck,”[/color] he thought to himself as pressed his hands to his temples.  He looked over his friends as he threw his hands down to his sides.  They started with Luca, and never left.[color=98FB98]“My man,”[/color] he thought to himself as he watched Luca being bottle fed some water.  A smile at the ridiculous sight crossed his face and refused to leave.  Good for him, if anyone deserved some action it was Luca.

[color=F08080]“Just as we,”[/color] Lynn paused as she tasted vomit in her mouth as she extended her hand towards Anya and pointed, [color=F08080]“thought.  These wolf idols are Father Wolf’s calling cards,”[/color] Lynn paused as she looked towards Meifeng, [color=F08080]“do you know of anyone else who wasn’t a Sycamore coven member who was killed by him”[/color] she paused as she looked over the rest of the group, [color=F08080]“or is it just us dying right now?”[/color]  

She let the question linger for a moment.  [color=F08080]“And if it is just us being murdered right now that should fucking worry you.”[/color]

Lynn paused as she let out a little groan.  While the fresh air had helped tremendously, she was still covered in that poison and the tear gas still clung to her eyes.  She knew she needed some water to flush her eyes, but she left her only bottle of water inside the ruined church.  She had her flask, as always, but she did not fancy the idea of pouring vodka on her eyeballs.  She looked around and saw agents passing out water to a few members.  And then she saw Luca being swaddled like a little baby by an attractive older woman.  She let her eyes linger on the sight for just a moment, worried that it had just awoken something inside of her, before she turned her attention to the front and faced their leader Meifeng once more.  [color=F08080]“Can you pass out water to the rest of us as well?  Heal those who need healed, take away the one you are here to arrest, but please give us all some water so we can flush our eyes the rest of the way and calm our throats.  We’ll leave after, and I promise you some of us will do what we can to not end up on your radar like this again.”[/color]

[color=F08080]“As well, maybe we can help each other out.  We’re the ones dying so it’s not like we have a ton of options,”[/color] Lynn shrugged as she paused, [color=F08080]“but we can both agree that we are the target.  Maybe if we encounter Father Wolf we can give you a call so you can collect your pound of flesh,”[/color] she paused as she took a step forward, [color=F08080]“avenge your fallen.”[/color]

She did not like talking like this to the Feds.  She did not like the idea of involving them in their hunt of the wolf.  But she knew that needed their help at least right now, and she knew that once a group is on their radar they never leave.  And with 8th street threatening their members like they did last night, she’d rather keep on their good side at least until they were able to figure out how to protect themselves in this new magical world that inhabited St. Portwell.

As well, the PRA was a vital piece to figuring out the puzzle that was Father Wolf.  If she could get their resources on their side, Lynn would be able to have a much easier time finding answers in the possible future.

Lila took a deep breathe as an agent took off the cuffs that had begun to dig deep into her hands.  She did not thank the agent, nor did she look at them, instead she simply rose to her feet and walked towards her friends.  She trusted Lynn was not in all honestly wanting to work with the Feds, and she looked worried at what she saw between Jasper and a fed.  The more Lynn talked the more an anger grew within her. 

[color=DA70D6]“I am still impressed by your troops and your skill Meifeng,”[/color] Lila sneered, [color=DA70D6]“came to arrest [i]one[/i] person, burned down a church, realized the scale of the fuck up and now you want to leave like nothing happened.”[/color]  She let her eyes linger on Meifeng as she moved next to Jasper, pulling him away from the bug girl.  She looked at him, back at the bug girl, and back to Jasper as her face danced between disgusted and confused.  The disgust was for one singular reason.  It wasn’t because she was this weird bug hybrid, no that was surprisingly okay given that, as children, they fought a literal world ending snake, and she sees a giant crow lady in her sleep.  She would not judge someone for liking someone adjoined.  And she was not going to judge Jasper for the lady catching his eye.  Lila would not think any less of him, nor would she call him a furry or anything like that because he wouldn’t be one.  She would judge him for the fact that she was a fucking PRA member.

[color=DA70D6]“Bro, she’s a fed,”[/color] she whispered, [color=DA70D6]“fuck all the way off with that nonsense.”[/color]

Lila looked over and saw Luca being bottle fed and watched, in horror, as he was called baby.  What the fuck was going on?  What the fuck was the PRA doing?  

[color=DA70D6]“Listen, if we’re free to go I’m going to leave,”[/color] Lila said as she looked over to Auri, ‘[i][b]shit[/b][/i],’ she thought to herself.  What the fuck happened at the back of the church. [color=DA70D6]“Please heal her though,”[/color] she paused as she looked around the area.  Ten years had passed since they fought the snake, but she could still see the ruined buildings, the bodies in the streets, and Auri being this hurt brought back a lot of those memories.  [color=DA70D6]“Please heal her,”[/color] she repeated,[color=DA70D6]“and then fuck off.”[/color]
