Capello, Gin, Kimiko
The travel back to Primrose had been in silence. Gin's condition hadn't seemed to change, but at least Capello's gums and arm had stopped burning. His mind raced around, trying to see every possible angle. A new clan of Rabisu had moved in, a turf war? No, that didn't explain the venom. Basilisks...they petrified with their poisons, and it wouldn't have been so...tenacious. The fox looked at Gin, still thinking before his blue eyes roamed onto the moping Ame-Onna. In her human form, the rain just made her look like a sad little girl who forgot her umbrella. She looked emotionally drained. Upon entering the apartments, passing a trio, Kimiko immediately headed towards the kitchen.
"I'll call Marie. You should take her to the lounge, it's the closest,"
Capello did so, laying the Kitsune onto one of the couches and once again feeling her forehead. Still warm. The poison was powerful, if even a residual could grab on for this long. He propped Gin's head up on a pillow before sitting back for a moment. The liar tapped his chin, then twitched as he heard Kimiko's voice filter down the hall.
"We were attacked. Gin and Capello are injured."
He examined his arm. The puncture was deep, sure. But not particularly large. And he seemed to be pretty tolerant of the venom, or at least it's residual. Having Marie and the others futz over him would be a waste of time, he told himself, laying a blanket over Gin before standing up. He'd treat his own injury. Besides, he had too many questions that needed to be answered. He smiled down at Gin.
"You rest for a bit."
With a ripple, the fox disappeared from sight.
Victor, Exo, Feli, Kimiko
The Jabberwocky was unceremoniously yanked along behind Exoris, giving a yelp as he stumbled. This girl was fast, and oddly uncoordinated, but it was like the clumsy steps transferred straight to Victor's legs instead of her own, as his hip jammed against a side table. Finally they reached the supply closet, the boy trying to catch his balance as the door flung open.
"Marie usually uses the mop thingy and one of the sprays for most of the mess ups I make so...here we goooo..."
Victor narrowly dodged the mop handle slamming into his teeth as he reeled back, then decided to place himself firmly behind Feli, using the elf as a shield. Exoris marched off towards the hall with the spill, clearly full of determination and vigor. The Jabberwocky blinked in confusion.
"Is she not aware of half the stuff she's doing?"
"I'll call Marie. You should take her to the lounge, it's the closest."
A trio of others, a tall man carrying a small girl and a drenched young woman, suddenly came barging through the door. The familiar scent of blood reached Victor's nose as they passed, one heading towards the kitchen and shouting Marie's name while the other two disappeared towards the lounge. Was it always this busy around here? His medical knowledge could come in handy it seemed...

I was gonna wait on Dark Angel, but they take too long.
Save some for later. Keeps the flow.
Woohoo, progress!
That "Pretty little doll" remark was just too sad.

Was just checking, the activity died down was all. That's usually a sign of death. Nice to see I was wrong.
EDIT: Then again...

Was beginning to wonder if this was dead or not. Looks like not.
Redwing, you bet your ass that Feli is being dragged with Victor. I wanna see what happens when Lysol opens up around him.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhut the f*ck up.
Yes, though actually that was because I felt Capello was interacting with too many people at once and that I was accidentally taking the spotlight, so I wanted to back off and let others interact without a fox suddenly popping up and going "HEY GUYS!"

Does anyone else get the feeling Gin is like, super melodramatic about everything and that totally makes everything better.
"MY GOD, I AM DYING! GOODBYE EVERYONE! I LOVE YOU ALL!"
"You stubbed your toe."
"BUT I'M LIGHTHEADED!"
"Cause you're a 3 foot tall wuss."
Also, if anyone's having problems coming up with ideas for posts, ways to get involved, or how to get your character into some interactions, I offer my help in thinking up post ideas. Here's a free tip:
Stop pulling out of interactions and walking everywhere, hold a conversation for longer than one post. Ya sillies.
I am serious, if you need help with ideas, send me a PM, we'll think of something.

Capello, Gin, Kimiko
"Don't worry about me Little Flower. Just rest for a bit."
Capello placed one hand on Gin's forehead as Kimiko exploded. She was warm, and odds are the toxins were affecting her due to her size. She must have a very weak constitution, combined with blood loss and minor poisoning, the girl was losing consciousness fast. Youkai, even half breeds, were a tough lot. Still, best to get her bandaged up rapidly. He doubted she'd die from such a shallow wound. He lifted her small frame carefully up in his arms before turning towards the Ame-Onna as she finished her tirade. The fox's tone was a no-nonsense and serious one as he looked at her, blue eyes cold.
"Kimiko. I'm a bodyguard, and while I may not be yours specifically, you're still a tenant of Primrose and as such, you are both under my protection. My safety is a secondary concern when it comes to any of you. If I had waited to try and bring someone else, I'd be staring at two blood stains right now. I made a choice, and it was the right one. However, you're right. I apologize for not coming faster, it was a mistake on my part."
A lot of humans had gathered around the area, possibly because of the sudden downpour, more likely due to the incredibly loud, violent fight that had occurred before Capello had covered everything up with his illusions. A dented dumpster sat on the sidewalk, attracting a lot of attention. The liar's hair was plastered against his face, the blood washing off as he tried to keep Gin out of the downpour, holding her closer to the wall in hopes the eaves would actually do their job. His arm felt like it was on fire, but the pain was subsiding. Thank Hell for demon physiology. Capello's jovial facade bubbled back up and he gave the Ame-Onna a warm smile.
"Rabisu's aren't toxic. But this one was definitely poisoned, my mouth is still kinda numb from it, which is even weirder that the venom is still pretty potent while in the bloodstream. I think the Little Flower here will be fine in the long run, but definitely uncomfortable for awhile. I'm glad neither of you are seriously hurt though. But it's odd, this thing attacked both of you. That's...incredibly unusual. Something scared it, made it desperate enough to attack two half-yokai in a crowded area during the day. But we should talk about it back at the complex. I'll keep us hidden, juuuuust in case he had friends."
A lot of questions surfaced in the fox's mind. Too many questions. A lot of contingency plans to start working on. A lot of reactionary plans, a lot of theorizations. Capello was a thinker, not a fighter. If he wanted to avoid another situation like this, he needed information. It wasn't hard to scan the area, looking carefully for any faces that seemed too interested or too calm, while hidden. But nothing cropped up. He would need to recon later, talk to his sources, talk to locals, and find out who attacked the Rabisu. He tucked Gin a bit closer to his chest, stepping over to Kimiko's side as he tightened the illusion up.
"Before the lovely humans start wading in, Hime-chan."
Victor, Feli, Exoris, Marie
As Marie walked away towards the voice coming from the kitchen, a...woman? Man? Woman. No, man, judging by the voice and very VERY subtle adam's apple, walked up to Victor and Exoris.
"Pardon me, but Yuen accidentally broke a pen and there's ink on the floor. I'm afraid I don't know what to use to clean it up with. Would one of you mind helping me?"
The Jabberwocky looked back towards Marie, but it seemed she was busy, so he instead nodded and adjusted his glasses.
"Ja, I'll help. Um...though I don't know where we'll find cleaning supplies. Frau Exoris, would you know where we could get cleaner and perhaps a brush or sponge to help with Herr...uh, I'm sorry, but I don't know your name?"
Victor held out one hand, careful to make sure it wouldn't force the elf to lift his apparently injured shoulder. The Jabberwocky had a practiced eye for such things, noticing the favoring and almost imperceptible wincing. The elf must have injured it recently.
"I'm Victor Steiner, a new tenant here. A pleasure to make your acquaintance."
"Don't worry about me Little Flower. Just rest for a bit."
