[There's a fire in this hallway. It crackles and leaps for the ceiling with angry tongues of flame while a pair of Exorcists stand and watch. The elder lifts her hand high enough to reflect the light of the fire on her gold armor covered left arm. She draws her hand down and with it the flames die, revealing the charred husks of the Akuma beneath

[Allen rolls his shoulders, deactivating his arm for the time being. He looks up at his teacher.]

Do we keep checking here, or you wanna move on?

[latenightmoon]

I want to do one more patrol around this area. Just to be sure.

[mean_sprout]

...Alright. [He'll let her lead the way.]

[latenightmoon]

[And she heads north, stepping around the Akuma remains.]

[arebornstar]

[Can't say that Lavi was too keen on coming near the two Exorcists but at the same time he wasn't going to accept their destruction, either. So he walks down the hall toward them, claw like hands in his pockets and whistling as his tail flicks. Inside his pockets, curled in his hands balls of Dark Matter are forming.]

Is it now~?

[latenightmoon]

[She turns to face Lavi, partly sideways so one of her Crown Phoenix's armor wings is between her and the registering Akuma.]

Oh, it was. Hello, Lavi. Or do you go by something else?

[meansprout]

[Peeks around her wing, his arm activated and his mask over his eyes. He glances up at Allison, then back at Lavi. What is this guy...]

...

[arebornstar]

[He chuckles and tilts his head back to look at them both.]

It's still Lavi~ ♥ [Wasting no more pretense he fires the balls of Matter at them both.] Not that it matters~

[He's running toward them now, coating his arms in the same stuff.]

[not_the_spirit]

[The fire is what attracts her attention at first, and that's slowly replaced by curiosity about the people still standing there. She starts walking up to them, expression firm. Maybe they know something more about the things going on in the Dressing Room lately.]

Hello. You two...are Exorcists, aren't you?

[[ooc: Placeholderish comment, not sure when I'll be back]]

[latenightmoon]

[She turns to face Alma and pauses only look enough to look briefly shocked. She covers it with a cough and straightens up.] We are. Akuma would have eaten their fellows not torched them.

[meansprout]

[He just glances over at her. Bit odd to see someone he doesn't recognize.]

Are you looking for Exorcists?

[not_the_spirit]

[She nods, glancing briefly at Allison when she coughs.] For information from Exorcists, because you might know something. I want to know if you've seen anything unusual from Akuma in the last few days. And...if you've heard about any disappearances.

[lfd2_allen]

Umm..hi. [Raises hand from behind the rumble that he was hiding behind just a few seconds earlier.] ..What are you blowing up?

[latenightmoon]

[She looks over her shoulder and raises an eyebrow.] ...how long have you been there?

[meansprout]

[Just turns to glance back at this Allen, while he brushes himself off. Someone who doesn't know about Akuma...?]

[lfd2_allen]

Just a minute...or so? [Shrugs.]

I was just walking around when I ran into...this.

If this isn't okay, let me know!

[selfdeluded]

[Ducking out from a nearby hall not long after the fires have died down, the heavy smell of an akuma wasn't enough to block out the smell of Innocence - or, for that matter, and Allen that he knew. So this particular Allen skids to a stop a few feet away, looking on the more notable side of panicked.]

Allen-- I didn't know who else to find, I-- [Pausing, and glancing up at Allison, her arm, and then back up to her face. Here's hoping he doesn't get mistaken for a Noah.]

Perfectly okay!

[latenightmoon]

[Whether's a Noah or not doesn't matter to her, she's shifting on her feet, the heavy clang of her boots the only sound for the moment. Her look is directed at her student, urging him to let his friend keep talking.]

WHY WOULDN'T IT BE

[mean_sprout]

[Well, that's not a good sign. Hobollen has Mean's full attention.]

What happened?

IDK

[selfdeluded]

[Okay. Not being attacked, that's a good sign! So his attention goes right back to Mean.]

I don't know-- Lavi went missing for days, and I'd been looking for him and when I finally found him... he was an Akuma, but his soul was still attached to his body-- It was still him.
