Once time began again, Mithias immediately withdrew the orb back into his hand, absorbing it and removing it from Bob's presence. He gasped and blinked so wide-eyed as he usually did in his idiotic innocence, watching Bob stride away with a feminine hip-swing. Mithias had no idea that the orb would react in such a way against Bob, and the fact that it seemed to actually hold him at bay was utterly shocking. Had anyone else seen it in that fraction of frozen time? Probably not. Regretting the orb's offense, Mithias stood up apologetically, but Bob had already moved on, leaving his words to linger on the vampire's mind. Lon? Prophecy? And what was that bit about the 'deepest darkness' and 'blackest chains?' The mechanics of emotions were beyond him.
Walking over to the meeting with Genocide, Mithias stopped to help Kevin up from the ground. The vampire reached a hand to the man, lifting him gently. "Welcome to the Lounge." He said without further explanation. The look on his face was fairly stoic. Mithias knew what that drink felt like.
It was surprising to see Number 5, Tugoro, and some apparent ally of theirs, who must have been Genocide, all sitting like civilized beings at a table. Mithias felt a surge of adrenalin kick in without his consent. He glanced to Asura, Creed, and the others to witness their reactions. Hopefully, nobody else on his team would get turned into a doll.
Genocides eyes slammed the company with their powerful, penetrating glare. Mithias felt the force of that radiation and was prepared for it. He glared back at Genocide with strength. It wasn't the first time he had been attacked with a look. Stein's gaze had been much worse.
Number 5 took on the modified form of Bug, and at first, Mithias didn't get the labcoat.
Asura started talking. This was going to be interesting.

Eclipse sighed as the creature and the girl ran to him for refuge. He pat a hand reassuringly over Lina's head. "I'm sorry I left you alone. I won't do that again." He picked up the girl and took the creature under his other arm. "Hold onto me, and I'll carry you. It will be faster this way, and you won't risk falling in this muck."
Strygwyr scoffed and muttered to himself as he crouched slightly, preparing to move. "Only the brave are fit to worship the Twins."
"Your Twins require a lot my friend, but that is a discussion for another time. Follow me." Eclipse secured his charges and took off, staying low and stopping frequently so Strygwyr wouldn't lose him.
Eventually, the ground became firmer and it was ok to walk. They were in a long clearing, surrounded by forest. It even looked like a path had been made through the trees. "I see a light up ahead. We need to find some shelter, or some civilization if this world has any. Perhaps one of us should go ahead and check it out." He deliberately looked to the only other adult in the group.
Without a word, the bloodpriest nodded and jogged ahead. He too was getting hungry.

"My name is...Lina." She says, sorta scared of the blade wielding dog man. "The robed man told me if I took care of the bug thing, he would bring my mom and dad back..." She squeaks out, not being even 7 at least.Soon, the creature returns, and crawls into her lap, full of..who knows what.
The muddy, wolf-like, masked man took a few plodding steps closer to the girl. A bright metal edge shone from over the black-brown mud of his blades and he grinned at her with the smile of vengeance satisfied. He looked strong, and yet wild and free like an animal. He didn't show any sorrow at the girl's plight. Nope. Not even lost across the universe and covered in mud was the crazy smile wiped from his face. For he was over it, and and eager for what lie beyond.
He spoke to her in a soothing, fatherly voice, a voice he might have often spoken to himself with. "The Flayed Ones will give you strength and keep you safe. The dark one took your family. The Flayed Ones know." Again he smiled at her, sadistically and lifted up a blade. "We should make him bleed." This was his way of sharing his faith, of calling another, a young one, to the service of his gods. Faith, was through bloodshed. "Pray to the Twins to save them, and make proper sacrifice. I can show you."
Just then, the sword started glowing, and the flap of wings could be heard above. "Bloodseeker!" Eclipse landed with a glare and took his sword from Lina. "Stop what you are doing."
The hound took a step to the side, unimpressed. "Did you find dry ground?" He asked.
Eclipse looked at him a moment. "Yes. It's not far. I'll carry the girl and the creature. You are going to have to walk."
Mithias paused as Najimi and Asura spoke, the former using some kind of magical impulsion to force Asura to keep his seat. Mithias didn't think much of this, assuming it was a normal aspect of Najimi's and Asura's relationship, however, the act of using one's powers on another was apparently grounds for... well, for becoming Bob's. Mithias froze for a moment, eyes wide, as he watched Najimi get turned into a trinket doll. He could swear he heard a tiny little voice come from the doll saying, "Help meeee!" o.o
Blinking, Mithias found himself still kneeling before Bob. "Er.. I um." He had to assume at some point Bob would release Najimi, or so he hoped for the time being. Nonetheless, it was quite a good thing that Bob had full control of reality within Hell's Coffee Lounge. He alone kept, ironically, "order," in his domain, and prevented beings like Genocide and Stein from killing everyone and doing god knows what with their souls.
So it was with those thoughts in mind and a new appreciation for the sound of rain on glass that Mithias went on to answre Bob's question. Closing his eyes and holding his hands out before him, Mithias formed the white, glowing shard of hope in front of him. The light swirled as it condensed, accompanied by the faint sounds of children's laughter, into a sphere shape. It was much brighter than previous, seemingly swollen by the number of souls and auras and amount of hope that had been brought together in this place. It fed off it.
The vampire's body seemed to dim and gray after the loss of the orb, but the light made his golden irises glimmer. "This, I believe, was spawned by the coffee lounge somehow. Strygwyr found it, appearing among a collection of artifacts I had gathered and left in a box on the counter. You must have seen it, since it had contained your hat. Whatever it is, it is a strong positive energy. It feels like hope." Mithias extended his clawed hand, offering the orb. "It's yours, if you want it."
Mithias momentarily turned his attention to the sound of Big's voice. Bug had been his friend in the past as well, but was clearly shaken by some terrible past. The vampire didn't understand a lot of the things Bug did, but his fear of Bob and Mia were evident. The insectoid nature spirit seemed really preoccupied, distraught even. Mithias sighed inwardly, because perhaps he too should be more wary around a soul-stealing nightmare lord. He'd have to ask him later why he was so upset.
He briefly scanned for Mia.

Soul Eater.
I have to say that SE one is the best.
Well... that was pretty fucked up, but I couldn't stop watching.
Mithias gasped softly as the reflective nail graced his chest with an alarming, yet soothing heat. His soul had been so recently, critically damaged, and he was clearly still healing. He was more than a little afraid. No doubt Bob remembered absolutely everything, and Mithias wasn't sure if The eternal embodiment of chaos would still be mad at him for what he did. Additionally, something about Bob now being a woman also gave Mithias just a little more reason to worry. Guilt ate at him as he faced his former guide.
Placing a hand over his chest, Mithias remembered fusing with the orb. "Oh yes. The orb of hope... if that's what you call it." Having forgotten about Mia for the time, Mithias looked at the rainbow-haired, grinning woman in the sparkly red hat. He hesitated for a moment, reassuring himself. Yeah it was definitely still Bob. "Bob." Mithias reached carefully for her empty hand and held it before him as he gracefully knelt down. It was so weird calling an obviously female being a man's name, but... hell it was Bob. Mithias opted to treat him like a lady and bowed as if she were a queen. "I've been waiting a long time to do this. I apologize to you for my past misconduct, Bob. Please forgive me. I will do anything to make amends to you."

The small girl held onto the blade for dear life, and the dark one sniffed the handle of the weapon."Hmm...." She says, and tried to keep the blade as clean as possible, but her little arms lead to it being sat in her sorta goo covered lap several times."Hungry...." The little creature says, before it pokes its head into the goo, followed by the rest of it, as it slithers though the goo, looking for bugs, small fish, anything bite sized really to eat.
Strygwyr turned to the girl as the beast went off. "What is a little girl doing in all this mud and darkness? Where did you come from?"

The girl struggles to get out of the muck. "Uck....this is digustttinnnngggg...." She whines. The small creature leaps down from Strygwyr's dome, and swims over to the little girl, and starts to try to clean her, gently flicking slime from her face, and curling up on her lap, as if it felt comfortable with her. Maybe it was due to them both being children. Maybe the man made sure the creature trusted its would be guardian....what ever the reason, dispite its nature sorta ugly, even Strygwyr would find the thing slightly cute, even if he still wanted to juice it for blood, which he smelled none of....in fact, it smelled really bad to him...like....dirty used tp bad.
Strygwyr sniffs in the direction of the thing and wrinkles his nose and turns away. He seems to preoccupy himself with how dirty his blades, etc. are. "Hrmm... Not fit for sacrifice like this." He grumbles and looks at Eclipse.
"Yes I see. I wouldn't slay the enemies of my goddess with blades like that either, Strygwyr. We need to get out of this swamp, assuming this world has something else to offer." He flapped his wings and stirred the mist around them. "Goddess, lift his fog of adversity." Of course, nothing happened. "Ah well. We are saved for the moment. We must be thankful for that." He tromped around a few steps looking outward. "I will scout around and try to find more solid ground. Take my sword..." He drew and pointed the handle to the girl. "It holds a piece of my soul. I will be able to find you again if you are carrying it, even through this dense fog." He smiled. "Bloodpriest, protect this child and her anomaly until I return." Eclipse heroically took to the air.
Strygwyr blinked at him from the ground. He wasn't fond of being given orders, but he could always chose to disobey them later. He grinned at that.
