Muse breathed deeply again before answering Rae. “Yeah, we are.” he answered, looking towards the distant patch of green. “And uh, now that I think about it, we don’t have to walk there. I could carry you if you want.” he offered. “I mean, I could turn into a dragon again. Or really anything else, like… some kind of horse-creature or something. Or a griffin with really big horns. Or maybe some sort of large, lizard-esque thing with like six or eight legs that slithers along the ground really fast, almost looking like a snake…” he trailed off. “Hah, I can get creative, if you want.” he smiled weakly.

MK Ultra meowed again as Callum commented on his name, almost seeming to smile as if he agreed. He then rubbed his face up against Callum a bit more, before lying down on the ground, not even taking note of the scream, and rolling over to expose his dark-gray underbelly, before looking up at Callum again, as if asking to be pet.

Unlike the cat that silently stalked Callum for probably close to two full minutes before doing anything, the being that stalked Kole didn’t care for dramatic buildup. Instead, this entity preferred to cut to the chase. 

For as Kole walked, a brief flash of purple light soon appeared in front of him, and with it, a very irate godmod. “You!!!” GM growled, pointing his finger accusingly at Kole. “I can’t get any fucking work done with you around, you know that? I go out to do a little research and next thing I know, there’s a fucking [i]bus[/i] on my fucking [i]bird[/i].” he ranted, emphasizing each word in his annoyance. “I mean I don’t even know how that bird got out in the first place, [i]but you dropped a fucking bus on it!![/i] Explain yourself!” 

Ironically, despite the fact that GM demanded explanations from Kole, GM provided no explanation himself as to why his eyes and the aura surrounding his left one had suddenly changed from the bright, neon violet they used to be to more of a dark indigo color, matching the crescent-shaped symbol on his shirt of the same color. …Or why his hair had turned black, his teeth were much more pointy, and he now donned gray skin and candy-corn-esque horns. GM addressed none of these things.
