[latenight_moon]

[A new room has appeared with a bottomless floor and floating platforms. Long chains large enough to run across stretch from platform by the door and a spinning block connects the second to a third platform. Allison glances around in confusion and sets her armored gauntlet covered hands on her hips.]

...Why is it every bloody time I come back here

[Allen is peering over one of the edges of the platform.]

Why? Why is it always bottomless!?

[latenightmoon]

I don't know. Reminds me of the mine sweeper room we ran across.

[cursed_clown]

Would be too easy otherwise. Amazingly we came out with all body parts intact.

[Allen stands up, looking at the other platforms and possibly for an exit.] Come back? [Allen smiles a bit.] I hope you got to settle some things before getting dragged back.

[latenightmoon]

And this place never does easy. The coins didn't survive but, better that than loss of life.

I did, but, [She looks back at Tyki with a frown.] This place is being a git again.

[chibi_walker]

[Mana stands in the doorway, staring in awe; he hasn't even noticed Allison yet]

...Woah.

[latenightmoon]

Mana! I haven't seen you in a while. [She glances back at Tyki and transverses the spinning block to get to Mana and sweep him into a hug.]

[chibi_walker]

Allison! [he grins, and hugs back, a little confused by the changes in her appearance since the last time he saw her] You're Allison, aren't you?

[latenight_moon]

Yes Mana, I'm Allison. A little older and wiser is all.

*asjdfl; Crap this isn't where I was a minute ago- Oh hey, there's my sister, that's not what her Innocence normally looks like*

You know Little Bird, there's something different about you. Something I can't quite put my finger on.

[latenight_moon]

Brother, are you alright?

[no_moon_tonight]

Of course I'm alright, what happened to you?

--Is that Tyki?

[latenight_moon]

A lot, I'll explain later. He's...Tyki but not, Mikk. He won't last if we don't get him medical attention.

[normal_really]

*Oh lord floating platforms, am I in a video game again?*

...Allison?

[latenight_moon]

[It looks like those annoying levels without the water jet in Super Mario Sunshine.]

Allen?

[normal_really]

...Why are we suddenly in a Mario game rip off?

[latenightmoon]

No idea, its better than being overwhelmed by Akuma though.

[falltomadness]

[Rhode seems to be absorbed in looking down at the bottomless pit, sitting cross-legged on one of the floating platforms and not noticing Allison and Tyki quite yet.

Or maybe only pretending not to notice.]

[latenight_moon]

[Not the person Allison wants to see right now. At the same time she could help the rather...in pain Noah. For the moment she's wary and nods politely.] Good day, Rhode.

[She looks back at the damaged Tyki with a quiet swallow.]

[falltomadness]

Al~li~son~. [She sing-songed at her in return, an edge to her tone, finally staring at them.

Her gaze snaps to Tyki when she sees the state he's in, but she makes no move towards either of them.]

[latenightmoon]

...Can you take him out of here? He's one of the clan and I doubt he wants an Exorcist hauling him anywhere. [She watches Rhode, her shoulders tensed despite the politeness of her tone.]
