Boreas thought Jason's nicknames were always interesting... But either way, he was more than ready when they finished formulating their plan and began moving again.

As a doctor joined them and Death and Jason began answering his questions, Boreas put in a few cents of his own every once in a while. At least, when he felt it was needed. The two already had most things covered.
When the Elemental wasn't speaking, he found himself curiously eyeing the Griffin statues outside each room.

Then at last, they reached Crimson's room and were welcomed by a woman outside. Boreas returned the greeting as well. He stopped, letting Crystal enter first, then followed inside for a brief visit.

The captain gave a small wave, a 'hello' to both Glory and the nurse who had obviously also been expecting them. "Likewise. Nothing short of a miracle that we're all here." He briefly smiled at the little Fairfin in the bowl, definitely noticing how much better she looked...
On the other hand, however, Crimson looked much worse than he ever had before. Boreas was glad to see that he was sound asleep and receiving treatment.
Other than that, for the time being, Boreas remained quiet.

After the Doctor and Nurses gave their nod and greetings they went back to what they had been doing.

Penelope gave a warm smile to the new guests, she stood and gracefully waved her hand as she said
" come in, come in, we were just talking about your arrival "
The Harpy bird lady then looked at the Elemental curiously with his statement " the Silver moons light your steps for you would not have found this place without them, I am grateful for their guidance for your group has suffered much..." she glace over at Crimson, upon getting closer it now could be seen the physical state of the young man, besides his skin being deathly pale, a few dark veins were visible across his skin Herr and there. The tips of his fingers were discolored gray and were darker around his fingernails, he looked more like a Dreamer on the losing end of Nightmares syndrome but was still trying to hold on.

The woman turned her sad eyes from the red king and looked back to the small group, she placed a hand to her chest as she introduced herself " I have not given you my name yet, I am Penelope, the angel of peace, I am sure you all have many questions, but please make yourself comfortable wherever you please" she wave a hand to the chairs nearby, If she had known about Crystal and Crimson connection she would have offered she could sit on the edge of his bed, however she wouldn't stop the girl if she did or pulled a chair closer. " I and the staff will accommodate you all in any way we can" she then offered.

Morning Glory stays quiet when Penelope introduces herself, and she continues to remain quiet, so if the newcomers have any questions for the angel, they can ask without distractions. For now, she finally gets around to something she's been wanting to do for a bit. //Anna? You there? What's the situation with the boys?// she calls her fellow Fairfin, cautiously optimistic about what's going on over there.

//Don't feel bad, man, you're doing your best. I can't remember much either, I don't think I was around long enough to really see what was going on... and there were other things, too,// Weaver chimes in, then listens as Anna asks her questions. //Hey, didn't you say something about Malice having Faithful's heart? I'm thinking that's all he's got, if he had Faithful's soul, I'm sure he'd be more like me--we'd be seeing more and more of Faithful. I don't know what Malice having his heart is doing to him though... and I have no idea why he has Faolan's memories.//
As he was saying this, Weaver's been sure to keep an eye on Malice, and now seeing a chain coming towards his head, he tenses up and pulls his head back. "Hey, hey I'm Weaver! Dreamweaver! What're you about to do??" he asks in a tone that almost borderlines demanding, all the while quickly going back and forth in his mind about whether or not he's in danger... //He's moving too slow to be about to take my head off... right? Right??!//

// Alright, I just wish I could do more... moons I'm tired// the Dreamer prince rub his face again, he couldn't give Anna an answer ether, in a way he hoped that Malice didn't have a one of the prince's souls, but he did wonder what was the difference between having a heart and soul, Weaver was himself but he could only feel the emotions of a Nightmare, so if Malice had someone else heart he could feel emotion like everyone else, he seen Malice behavior and how both odd and shameful he was, but Nightmares were evil and tricky, he just didn't know Malice enough to judge him properly.

// yep! That what was said at least//Anna tap her heels together as she was in deep thoughts // there was nothing about Malice having a soul, I think Alex, uh, are Alex in the group said that Faye was still alive so I'm going to guess that means that Faithful soul is still out there somewhere...hmmmm// she give a big huff as she said telepathically // I don't know ether other than this is one big confusing chaotic mess //

Malice stopped going for the man hat when he leaned away and voiced his disapproval " Dreamweaver?" He repeated, that was a Dreamer name all right, but why did he not look like one but not? He knew a Dreamweaver, wasn't he an idiot? That sounded right...but what was he trying to do before? His mind went back to 'hat' " I want your * word for Beaver home* hat off! " he snapped and try to sit upright, but he was struggling in his weaken state, he even had to put his chain down to rest, but he was stubborn and would try to get up again.

" Whoa! There punk! " The Tigger Fairfin snapped seen the chain go for her friend head but she paused looking back and forth between the two, what was going on? Why did Malice want Weaver hat? She was about to give the Nightmare king a piece of her mind when she felt a faint presents // Glory?! Glory is that your? I can barely hear you! Did you say What up with the boys? // she guess, Anna didn't know how we'll or long this connection would last so she jumped on it // we finally found Malice, we followed some old looking train tracks down a bunch of dark tunnels, he not to far past the freaky spot were he did this dark spell... were talking with Malice right now but he kinda nutty, I think he sick but he really messed up, Weaver and Catch are both doing OK, there hanging in there but the sooner we could wrap this up the better, both boys are pushing themselves....// she really hope that Glory got all that, she then asked// how your end? Is everyone ok? //

(This is other really nice cover Fluffy! Thank you!

And thank you for getting the repost Lilly!
How is everyone today? )

(It is X3

No problem!
I'm doing good, all things considered! Really wishing my art mood would come back TwT )

(Thank you! This one's definitely another oof, but I do like how it turned out. ;w;

And yee, thank you for the reposts, Lilly!
Your art mood will come back eventually! Hang in there!
I'm also really looking forward to when it does. Maybe you could try some little things to see if you can get it going?

I'm doing alright! It's been a really nice day out.

How about you, Shadow, and whoever else may be here?)

( I really look forward in when you're art mood comes back to Lilly!!

That a good idea Fluffy! Doing little art exercise could help you get back in the mood of things?

That good that you both are doing good considering!

I'm doing pretty well, just been an unexpected busy morning but I think it might calm down now, hopefully)

(I know of a couple art exercises that I think are fun--though, I'm pretty sure I've told ya about 'em before. XD

Glad you're doing well too, Shadow! I hope things calm down, though!)

Crystal observed the Harpy lady as she stood and beckoned them in. Just her presence alone spoke for itself, but when she called herself ‘the Angel of peace’, the girl couldn’t help but wonder.. Even with her mind all over the place, she still gave a polite nod, introducing herself too by softly saying “My name is Crystal.”

When Penelope invited them to sit, Crystal was glad to take the offer. “Thank you,” she said. Now, She wasn’t quite bold enough to choose to sit at the edge of Crimsons bed, but she did move to take a seat in a chair that happened to be rather close. In doing so, she stopped by his side for a moment to actually get a proper look at him..

The girl hadn’t been sure it was possible for Crimson to look any worse than he had that morning or the day before, but she was proven very wrong. It was nearly terrifying, and certainly heartbreaking to see him in this state. Crystal wasn’t able to stand there long before she felt her eyes starting to sting, so she turned, finishing her way to the chair and took a seat.

Boreas respectfully nodded in agreement with the Harpy woman.
He remained standing for the time being, but he still thanked Penelope as well, "Pleasure to meet you. I'm Boreas. We're beyond grateful for the Silver Moon's guidance, and your help."
He paused, glancing to Crystal as she took her seat. The Elemental felt for the poor girl.

Still, he looked back to Penelope, absolutely having his fair share of questions as well. It was not the time for that, so he remained focused on his plan. "For now, I won't be staying long. I wanted to check Crimson's condition, then visit another... Is he stable?"

(Hey Galaxy! How're you doing?

...I just got back from taking Brownie to the vet with my dad.)

(Oof this is late but heya, I'm doing alright ^^ it's been raining all day and I'm very happy about it~

If you don't mind me asking, is Brownie doing okay?)

" it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance" Penelope smiled with a tip bow, she then watched as everyone got settled in. The Bellezzas heart broke for the human girl, it was obviously she cared for the young man. She wanted to place a hand on girl and reassure her that they were doing their best for her friend, but her attention, pulled away for a moment.

Penelope look to the Elemental as he asked his question, she then looked back to the sleeping red king for a moment. " I understand, then I will be brief " she then turned back and said " he is indeed stable, I placed a blessing of peace on him, you're friend Crimson is resting and recovering from what has been done to him... however we are still not sure on the extent of that... there is other Soul connected to your friends, and I have no doubt that this has something to do with the demon within him... but yes, your friend is stable "

After explaining this Penelope then placed a hand on Crystal like she wanted to earlier" we are doing are best for him, know, that in this place no evil stand "

(Sorry about the late reply, thing got a bit crazy at home but I think things have finally settled down.
hi Galaxy!! Rainy days are lovely days! X3
I'm glad you get to enjoy the weather! )

"Ok, ok! I'll take my hat off!" Weaver says, just as quickly as he takes his hat off with his right hand. He stands there now, with a concerned look on his face, and after taking a deep breath, he asks, "There, my hat's off. What did you want me to do that for?"

~~

Morning Glory tries her best to listen to Rihanna's message, but it is rather hard to hear her. She thinks she can make out most of the message, though. //You found Malice near where he did a spell? He's sick? The boys are pushing themselves...?// she repeats back to her friend, then she says, //You wanna know how everything is over here? Well, it's going alright I suppose, Crimson hasn't woken up yet, and the guy in control of his body went back to sleep too... Crystal and Captain Boreas just got here, though, they're safe and sound. I'm not entirely sure how everyone else is doing.//

" take off your hat?" Catch thinks outloud, his face echo the continuing confusion. //what was that supposed to do? // he thinks to himself, but then he notice that Anna seem to be on call and wonder who that could be with, he hoped it was Glory again.

Malice got himself in a position were he could look at the young Nightmare, he was watching him intensely as the large hat was removed, at first the Nightmare king said nothing but his ears slowly pin back as his yellow eyes scanned Weaver, he then lock eyes with him and order " put the hat back on "

Likewise Rihanna did her to listen to her friend message // yes! That sounds about right, the boys are trying to talk with Malice right now but he kind of out of it... // she said holding a Paw to the side of her head, she made a face as she watched the bizarre scene unfold between Weaver and Malice // Mal keep asking Weaver to take off and on his hat... I'm not sure why but it's kinda funny....// she then looked away just for a moment do she could focus// your still choppy, I'm pretty sure it's because of my end... I'll tell the boys that you guys are OK! I'm pretty sure that what you said.//

(Oh my goodness--I got totally distracted and didn't see your message, Galaxy! I don't think you have to worry about being late when I'm responding two hours later. Sorry about that! 'XD

Brownie's doing great! He just needed to get some stuff to keep him from getting kennel cough, and he has a little bit of an ear infection, but we've got what we need to treat it now.

And I'm glad you're doing good! I agree with Shadow, rainy days are the best.)

(Aw yay, I'm glad he's okay! Most of the times I've heard people mention stuff like that it's not for the best of reasons ':D

and yeee, I love rain~)

After taking a seat, the girl looked between Boreas and Penelope, listening quietly.

She didn’t have any immediate input, so she tried to focus on the good parts. The words stable, resting, and recovering were so reliving to hear, and while Crystal was still rather unsure about things, it felt like they could really trust this place, and so far the people in it too. The woman in front of them definitely didn’t seem bad in anyway, and a growing part of the girl knew she could trust her and what she said.

Crystal looked down for a moment and took in a breath when Penelope touched her and gave more reassurance, but when she let out said breath it shook a little. “That’s.. all really nice to hear.. I’m glad," she replied.

(Hmm, well, I think Shadow's headed out for the night.

So, goodnight everyone! Hope you all sleep well!)

Boreas seemed relieved in his own way when Penelope confirmed that Crimson was stable. Still, the rest of what they had discovered with the boy was nothing to push aside...
//We certainly have our work cut out for us.//
He stayed quiet briefly, watching Penelope give Crystal some extra reassurance.

"...That is great to hear--for Crimson and everyone's sake." The icy Elemental smiled faintly, "I believe time for recovery is what we all need."

Weaver hesitates at first. "... U-uh, ok..." he mutters, then puts his hat back on.

~~

Morning Glory furrows her eyebrows some as she listens to Rihanna, and she slides back down into her bowl some. //He's asking Weaver to take his hat off and put it back on? Did I hear that right?// she asks, honestly unsure if that's what was said or not, but then says, //Alright, thanks Anna! Keep looking after them for me! I hope we'll be able to see each other soon, and the boys can get a break!//

Malice doesn't blink as he watches, his eyes unchanging as he leans his head one way then go the other, he doesn't say anything as he does this or show any pain on his face but his hide Twitches with his discomfort, but that isn't important right now, what is, is /who/ or /what/ is standing in front of him. " take the hat off " he ordered again still with his unblinking yellow eyes.

Rihanna makes a face at the bizarre behavior // yeah, that what he doing, hat off, hat on... I'm not sure what kind of deal going on but I'll keep you updated the best I can! Hopefully I can find a better spot for a signal // with that she hangs up, she wants to tell the boys but was going to wait a bit when they not having to focus so much on the Nightmare king.

Penelope softly smiled at the girl.
Time to rest was what everyone needed, she agreed with that." we will do our best to accommodate yours and your friends needs " she knew that the ones who came earlier needed food along with rest so she offered "would you like something to eat? We have soup for something lighter, or if you feel up to something solid we can provide that as well "
