It was cool the first few times, but these displays happened quite a bit more often than you would think. It definitely didn't help that, unlike a lot of people here, Hilaria had basically no clue what the deal was. Some vague understanding that Justine had been stopped not too long ago and Mariette had something to do with it. Wait. With so many people clamoring to attack her, was Mariette actually the bad guy here? And if she was... Was this what Dan wanted? Pleasant feelings regardless of who they came from? The thought was somewhat dark, admittedly, but considering how he forced everyone to stay in his dimension for a week, there was the possibility. She exhaled almost listlessly. She would be lying if she said she couldn't work for someone like that. Morality had kinda lost its appeal somewhere down the line. She preferred to focus on more important things like not being bored or eating. Mostly eating. Besides, she had done things unbecoming of a magical girl, and pretending otherwise would be hypo[url=https://youtu.be/0xeiAUMhNQ8]cr1tikal[/url]. She was leaning good, but this was only evidenced by her refusal to take hits like an assassin. Hilaria caught herself becoming strangely aware of the presence of the Beacon present. Her mind wandered then to the Ascendancy, and then to Isabella. [i][color=F65772]O sister of mine, must thou fandangle escape attent much longer? I fancy not to idle for eternity.[/color][/i] Hilaria lamented the fact her sister chose her job over the sibling she had finally reunited with. So much for atoning for her betrayal. At least it seemed the tomfoolery was at its end with Reaver's summoning. It was almost a shame to see him on the other side. [color=F65772]"Mmm,"[/color] she then glanced towards Leena who was fuming. People were really angry at Mariette, huh? The dimension started to collapse as if to agree with that statement. She had better take things a bit more seriously now that her life was very much threatened. Hilaria had to admit Leena had a unique trick up her sleeve and, judging on how Alex was beginning to panic, she imagined a rather frightening one. Made moreso by Mariette almost collapsing. [color=F65772]"Hilaria wonders if you are okay~?"[/color] she would have caught the little witch with a hand had Dina not done so. Instead, she took note of the general situation and listened to the others come up with a plan, giving Dina a smile and a nod in response to her request. [color=F65772]"Okie dokie~!"[/color] Then it was that Mariette wanted to reach her basement, while Alicia began to charge. [color=F65772]"~!"[/color] she gave a delighted squeal when Eli mentioned destroying the roof. [color=F65772]"You need look no further~!"[/color] her gun disappeared and her shield morphed into gauntlets. She flexed an arm, [color=F65772]"Hilaria is on the job~!"[/color] What resistance the roof had put up was too negligible to be seen, and a sizable chunk of it was now broken by Hilaria's doing. If they intended on dropping through, there was more than enough space to do so. Having finished, she reverted back to her shield and axe. By this point, Alicia was closing in on, perhaps, Dina, who was now something more than she was moments ago. The knight would motion for Eli and Mariette to carry on and place herself between their would-be attacker and those two. She was the shield after all and would play the part in the moments to come.
