He was being held hostage? This was both really cool and horrifying.

Lucien stared at Dylan with wide eyes as if expecting his friend to snap out of it and help him, but assistance never came. Mordie held him in a choke hold and he struggled against her. If the floor hadn't been so slippery he probably would have been able to elbow his way out of this sticky situation, but the with oil everywhere it was easier said than done and even staying upright was sort of a challenge in itself. 

[b]"Let's try somethin' new."[/b]

Mordie's grip loosened and before the summoner could react, her fingers were pressing down on his cheeks. "Let go--" That was all he could say before she winked.

Everything, his irritation and disdain, they all flew out the window. Lucien melted on the spot, a dreamy sigh leaving his lips and a dorky smile tugging on the corners of his mouth. Soon, he was grinning from ear to ear and looking like a love struck puppy. She was beautiful. 

"D-Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?" Lucien looked like he was on cloud nine. "Gods, you're an angel."

The reaction Mordie gave him however was one of fright and soon the lovely lady was asking for his held. He straightened up, puffed out his chest, and stood his ground in front of her. "I'll protect you, Mordie. You can count on me." It sounded so right, but it felt so wrong.

[b]"Dylan has a dangerous, dangerous weapon... oh, please get it away from us!"[/b]

He narrowed his eyes at Dylan, no trace of mischief or silliness on his face. The summoner was dead serious. "What kind of gentleman would try to hurt a lady, yeah?" He flipped through his soggy cards, ignoring both turtle and tuna and instead going for large cat he had used back when he had met the pride. "Lisette, make sure to keep the bros away from Mordie." He stated as he hunkered down, and pressed a little blood onto the card.

There was a puff of smoke followed by the appearance of very pissed off cat. It let out a roar then began charging towards Dylan. It showed none of the restraint that the bear had shown because it was blinded by rage, and Lucien's clouded mind didn't understand that Dylan was his friend. 

The cat leaped and swiped a paw at the matter artist.

"Let's not be hasty." Xan mumbled as calmly as she could.

She didn't know what kind of bullets were in the gun, but she did not want to put anyone at risk by choosing to attack. Still, if they didn't do something...Moira, Syed. The conflicting thoughts made every action full of hesitation. What could she and Amy do? All Heather needed to do was pull a trigger and if they rushed towards her or showed signs of aggression it would only take the woman a second to make her choice, to let the bullet fly.

"What if we leave?" She sounded sincere enough, though knew that couldn't be an option. "What if you escort us out and call it a day?" That sounded absolutely stupid but she really didn't know what else to do or say.
