Tia was surprised when Oscar had found her beneath the table, his touch comforting in a way she hadn't really felt before. No one from the precinct had ever gotten close to her physically, not since the [i]incident[/i]. There had been an accident when one of the officers went rogue. She couldn't blame him, he had gone up against her mother and was one of a select few who had survived. He was angry, furious that the woman who had stolen so many lives had been happy, had lived with love and had brought a soul into this world. So of course he would lash out against her daughter whom she had left behind in this world, Tiara could still feel the lingering sensation of her ribs bruishing as he kicked her over and over. 

It was when he had grabbed her hair and had pulled her to her knees she had felt the world growing dimmer, the shadows around them swirling as her powers had activated. Fortunately she had been teleported safely onto the ground outside of her cell, but the officer... he had let go mid teleportion and had ended up falling to his death a few blocks away. They had not charged her for his death as they deemed it self defense given how severely she had been beaten, but after that no one had touched her for fear of the same happening to them. She couldn't remember how long it had been since she last felt someone's warmth, but in that moment she craved even more. But she was terrified by that longing as well, so she merely held back and nodded in response to his words. The words that gave her courage in the face of death. 

As Travis entered the kitchen though Tiara froze up, his question hanging heavy in the air as she realized he might have been the only one who didn't know what had happened. Was it alright to be the one to tell him? 

"Gemini... they found his body. He... he's dead." She managed to get out, her head drooping as she wondered if he was in a good place. She hoped there was something, anything after this. 

As JD entered though and proclaimed that he was going to go find Peacekeeper and bring him to justice for his actions Tiara couldn't help but lift her head. He body trembled as she climbed out from under the table. The light burned her skin but thanks to the exo-skin on top of her own it was merely as if she was taking a very hot shower. But she didn't let that stop her, grasping onto JD though she knew he could very well shake her off at any moment. She wasn't strong, she wasn't anything like the others. But she knew this was dangerous, it was suicide even! 

"Don't go! I know Peacekeeper is to blame, he deserves to pay for killing Gemini! But we're not ready! Even as a group we may not be enough! If one of us dies because we tried to avenge him do you think he'd be happy? We must think about this rationally! We will bring him justice, we will bring Gemini peace, but we must be smart about this!" Tiara insisted, her eyes pleading to JD just as much as her words were.
