"Excellent ^^, Then perhaps you could join me with one of those Pop Sickles." He led the way... "We have done amazing things with our magics... nothing comparable to that technology you have... probably why it was so easy for Lord Armok to over run us... but give me a month..." He smiled again. He was in such a good mood considering he was at risk of a horrific death.

The idea of death didn't much phase Rose anymore. She'd honestly been here too long. "Maybe" Rose walked into the kitchen with him. "I'm sure you'll figure it all out soon enough"

He got to the kitchen and got the ice cream and a bowl... that's a step up from palming it I guess. He took a spoon and dished it out. "You are... similar to our people, may I ask you a question?" He was too polite... <<... "I don't want to offend you... sometimes what I am asking is a personal issue."

He sat down... "Well... to put it bluntly... have you died before?"

"Yeah, I have" Honest.

He smiled. "It shows... in a person when they speak of it, those who know it have an aura about them." He fiddled with his Ice cream. "I'm glad you have experienced it. It makes you appreciate life more." He scratched his head. "In Nhycia we are killed right after we are born to remove the fear from us. Then again to perfect our craft. Very few outside of us have this privilege."

Rose listened and thought. "I don't know if it's made me appreciate life more, so to speak. I just don't fear death as much anymore." Or at all, really. Rose made a face. "Your people have an odd practice"

So like yeah. Eris peeked around the corner looking almost...nervous. She had probably been downstairs when the com came through, and unlike Kat's room, her office was not soundproof nor indestructable, soooo...
Whatever, the gouge marks in the desk/walls/chair/door gave the room character.
._. Regardless, Eris was gonna stay hidden upstairs.

Kane smiled. "Well, I am an odd boy..." citing what she said before. "It's not odd... it's just... a different look at similar contexts. Death is a stage as any other. We kill our new born to reset the cycle. We are born into the pain of death and live in the grace of life." He looked up at her. "You may hear the cliche "I'd die for you..." in Nhycia it is the greatest honor that we live for people. Night and day... all different, but structurally the same."

"True." Rose folded her arms and leaned back against the counter. "That's an interesting look on it." She glanced up. "Hey Eris." Pause. "Do I want to know where Kat is?"

He blinked. "What happened with Kat?..." He said with a hint of worry. "hello Eris" he smiled "You look troubled..."

Eris shook her head, "I would not even send Isaac after her at the moment." It was pretty bad.

Rose sighed. "Maybe I should try talking to her?"

He bit his bottom lip. "She doesn't seem to respond to many people... I still have yet to ask her about my status..." He stirred his remaining ice cream.

Eris kinda winced, "Now...would not be a good time for that." Seriously don't go now. <.< She kinda glanced at Rose and shrugged, "It is your life." SERIOUSLY.

"It won't kill me to look into the face of death once more today" YOU KNOW ROSE, IT JUST MIGHT. "Plus, my ducking reflex is getting better." Rose pushed herself off the cabinets and went to leave the kitchen, thought for a moment, grabbed a bottle of vodka, then headed to find Kat.

ERIS IS A GOOD PERSON. "Remind them to play AC/DC at my funeral" She called over her shoulder to Eris before approaching Kats office. Knock Knock. Wait. Open door. "Kat?" She was prepared to duck any flying objects that may or may not be heading her way right now.

Kat had a bunch of other people in the room with her, all of whom looked mildly terrified, but NO TIME FOR THAT. She was being very srs bzns and issuing orders rapidly, "I want every trace of him out of my database, I want any program overrides gone, if you have to reprogram the entire servers, the entire fucking thing, I don't care." She really, really didn't, "I want that information he took back, and I don't care what you do or who you kill to get it." In fact she'd probably help. She sat back down in her chair, and there was a moment of awkward silence before Kat slammed her hand back down on her mostly ruined desk, "The fuck are you standing here for? Go! Now! Get out before I fire you!" And by god they ran.
OKAY ROSE COAST IS CLEAR
