Quite pleased with how things had turned out, though he kept an ear to the conversation, Chatterbox finished his approach to Axolotl, then crouched down and looked him over. When he was sufficiently sure that the man was a non-threat, he rose to his feet and glanced at Headhunter.

[color=#357302][b]"Mind giving me a hand getting him outside?"[/b][/color] He asked, seeming not to mind the other villains present. He heard their words, but made no effort to comment or respond. 'Broker' had things well in hand.

A small smile quirked her lips as things went over smoothly. When her attack ended she took her hands off of her ears and mentally recalled her tulpa. Once the others acted, saving the hostages from any other damage, Evelyn dismissed her projection, and it vanished in a brief flash of electrical energy. A shimmering shadow was left in the air, but it swiftly vanished into the ground. While things seemed well in hand, she still counted in her head, waiting till her power would be properly useable again.

[color=#3068FF][b]"That went well,"[/b][/color] she said, sounding not just relieved, but very pleased. Though, when she looked and saw Lillian clearly in pain, she frowned. Her own ears were ringing too, but nearly so bad as she'd covered them before hand. She wished she could ahve warned the others.

Instead she walked towards Lillian to help Messiah comfort her. [color=#3068FF][b]"Is there anything I can do,"[/b][/color] she said, a tendril of regret slithering its way into her heart. She bit her lip.[hr][center][h1][color=#B8EEFF][b]Outsider[/b][/color][/h1][/center][hr]
Covering his ears as a sharp pain went through his head, Jake backed up several steps, startled and faintly disoriented. Things had happened so swiftly that he was barely sure what exactly had occured. Though as he registered that it was his ears that hurt, he found that he was happy not to have been in his Second Vessel when that attack had gone off. It would have been so much worse.

Shaking himself, one hand to an ear, he began to cross the distance between himself and the disabled villain. However, before he got to Ceramix, one of the other heroes caught his attention. He met the woman's eyes as she spoke. Even despite the circumstances, her words brought a small smile to his face as amusement blossomed in his chest. It was glorious. He offered her a slight smile, [color=#B8EEFF][b]"Thank you for your concern, but I'm quite alright,"[/b][/color] he responded, eyes shifting to those who were surely in worse condition than him. He leaned in slightly and dropped his volume so hopefully only she would hear. [color=#B8EEFF][b]"The body that got hit isn't the same as this one is,"[/b][/color] he offered as explanation, unwilling to go into the full details with a stranger. Besides this gave things an air of mystery.

Drawing away with a reassuring smile, he patted her shoulder companionably and then made his way to Ceramix, checking his status. The man was unconscious and more than taken care of. No surprises now...he hoped. As he turned away to see where he was needed, Kyoshi spoke. Nodding, with a slight smile, he took a few steps back from Ceramix and the others before shifting forms.

There was a brief emptiness, nausea, and then he settled into his Second Vessel. The pain of his physical body was gone, replaced by the strength and solidity of his other form. Quickly, though carefully, he snaked through the air and took hold of the huge stone limb. Tendrils and hands wrapped themselves around the fingers of rock. Tiny directed pulses weakened the structure and then he pried the stone back till it broke. He used pulses to keep any of the shards from hitting the hostages within, some spare tendrils catching them before they could fall and hit the ground. Once he set them down, and made sure they were properly looked after, he took note of Kyoshi's other words.

[color=#B8EEFF][b]"Gotcha, you get taken care of. I hope there's no permanent damage,"[/b][/color] his hollow voice said, more emotion in it than she would have seen from him in almost any other situation. There was worry for her wellbeing, as well as a sliver of happiness that she wasn't injured, there was the caring of a friend and teammate, and numerous other slivers of emotion.

He didn't seem to notice the difference as his leviathan form turned in the air and took to seeking out G4M3R by the shape of his body and gear. After a moment he found him, at which point he shifted back to his human form—nausea disabling him for a few seconds—and then headed over to their leader. What he found brought a scowl to his face, fear to his eyes, and anger to his heart.

The man was grievously injured. He bent down and checked if he was breathing.

He hoped so....
