After awhile, Neo only stopped her eye color shenanigans, stopping at her bright green to hold up a small notecard with jotted down handwriting.

How much did you get, Hajime?
tumblr_inline_mr6csbL5Qp1qz4rgp.png


"3,492 times was roughly the number of times that you changed eye colors, and you tended to favor the pink and brown shades," Hajime explained with a shrug. It seemed he wasn't exactly sure of the number, but it seemed he wasn't bothered one way or another.

"Huh?" Saitama only uttered with a surprised blink as Morrigan would cling onto him like a wet towel so suddenly. Awfully nice, she was. He was almost taken aback a little by it. Almost. Anyway, a succubus, huh? That sounds an awful lot like the word "seduce." If he didn't know any better... Oh, wait a minute.

Well, anyway.

"Saitama," the hero said upon being asked what his name was, "Nice to meet you too," he nodded, seemingly unfazed by Morrigan's feminine wiles for the time being, judging from his expression that remained neutral and composed even after coming into such close contact with the green-haired woman.

... Well, if nothing else, he could admit that her chest was pretty... uh, ample.

When Rita would arrive again, Saitama would give something of an irritated glance. What was she going on about now?

"Huh? What key? I dunno what you're talking about," Saitama would respond, deflecting the accusation without missing a beat, "Why would I want a key to anything anyway? I'm just here for the food. And the people, I guess."

And then Morrigan would start teasing him.

tumblr_inline_mg8ht1T1701qf6dad.png


"Accused of being a thief and a pervert... I almost wish we went back to talking about my bald head. At least that part's true..." Saitama sighed in defeat.

Hajime frowned as Saitama's mood dropped once again, directing his attention to him and Morrigan, "You okay there, Superman?" For now, he wouldn't say anything to the succubus herself, not wishing to start an argument if Saitama could handle it himself.

And it seemed Gilgamesh's ego let him get distracted just long enough for Kilgrave to slip in... Not realizing he already whispered the command though Gilgamesh was quick to try to chase him off, re-summoning the gates to try to force Kilgrave to step back as he shouted "Hmph! Nice try but it's not that easy!". However, his actions suddenly paused even if only for a split second when Ryan highlighted she was no longer a little girl... That was true, though admittedly, he'd probably be behaving in a similar manner if this was Reece.

Regardless when Ryan started going on about arthur he handed waved it away, regretting that he allowed that side track to begin with as he said "Forget about her now! She isn't here! And if you're not a little girl then act like it Ryan! Don't just expect everyone has good intentions!".

How was Ryan not surprised? A soft sigh passed her lips, and the Caster found herself taking a pause before responding. Yeah.... Definitely a good thing that she wasn't like her sisters. Or Larkin. ...Yeah, Larkin's story was one for another day. Right now, though, this was Ryan's. And she was of a much more sweet, gentle, patient, and loving nature than any of her siblings. Or her cousin, at that. So, her response was much more patient and fond.

Even if Gilgamesh's talk of Arthur sparked a small flame of sadness in the young woman.

"I understand that you don't see eye to eye with me, but.. Have you heard the Mortal saying? 'Innocent until proven guilty'?" she asked, pursing her lips slightly. "He hasn't acted devilishly, whether he's 'influenced' me or not. After all, my sister is a Siren - and she's... Well, a much better person than she could be." Sure, she had realized that Ridley wasn't the best person - but it was more than true to say that she was good in comparison to how evil she should have become.

Admittedly, Ryan wasn't sure of just why Kilgrave wanted her giving drinks to some girl, but she didn't have much of a choice. Besides, helping was a good thing... Hopefully. Regardless, as Kilgrave walked away, Ryan flashed Gilgamesh a smile. "See? No tricks or stunt pulled. Maybe he isn't as bad as you think."

Raven was going to have Rose reply to the man but it appeared a mix of distractions acquired for her attention turned to her friend. "What?" She asked seeming to now ignore the man she sensed a strange feeling of yearning from her white haired companion. Rose looked to her friend. "Well I was curios if there was a place for a girl to get a drink." She replied and gave Raven a smirk. Then sighed. "Or maybe we could dance after this?" She suggested to her blue purple haired team mate. Raven sighed. "Rose your lucky were not at the tower or I would. Ugg" Raven stated then looked back where the man had asked them what it was they wanted. Alas the man was gone. 'hmm something must had came up while we were talking.' She thought to herself trying to explain why he must had left she then looked back to Rose. "Let's go find your drink or dance or whatever." She commented.

But then there was a new arrival to the party. Someone who caught Mickey's eye. Jumping down from Sweet's elaborate stage set up, Ghostface threw him a wave of appreciation before making his way towards 'Didi'
Her response was dry and monotonous. "No no please don't go." She'd offer a few glances towards the dance but didn't pay it much else attention. One who would get Jezebel's attention however was the pale goth girl that she noticed, no, sensed was more like it.

There was power in her, primordial, dark as well as light. Jezebel made it no secret that she was staking the goth out so if she was curious for a chat then she was welcomed to do so.

@OrlandoBloomers @Saint Guillotine @TheSpringwoodSlasher

xbgNoHk.png


The little performance conducted by Sweet and performed by Mickey had certainly been a big enough source of commotion to draw her attention. The friendly goth had been watching the entire thing from a little drinks table off to the side, near enough that she could smile and clap along to the beat whenever the backup dancers passed, so Mickey didn't need to go far to approach her. Hmm. What a funny little thing to do. She supposed there was a fair bit of irony in the serial killer singling Death out among a crowd, wasn't there? Not that she was letting anything on. She wasn't here to flaunt her position.

"Hello, you two."

She addressed Jezebel in her greeting too, fully conscious of the fact that she had the demi-demoness's attention. She had the right idea, about what she sensed within the pale girl; some light, some dark... and yet mostly neither. She wasn't so much a being of good or evil as she was an aspect of existence itself, something ancient and fundamental, with no preconceptions. Save for a particular fondness of certain British cult films, of course.

Perhaps curiously, she addressed both as though she already knew them-- and indeed, that was the vibe she gave off. Like she was an old friend they just hadn't had the pleasure of meeting yet. She sipped her drink, giving them both a friendly smile.

"Enjoying yourselves? Seems like things've gotten lively already. Can't say I'm too surprised, knowing this lot. Have you ever seen a bunch like this before? All in the one place? What a lark!"

@Jeremi @TheSpringwoodSlasher


Brad, in the meantime, was still just standing around. He didn't want to approach anyone and didn't look at all approachable, and so he was left to just wonder, again, why he was here.

"Why would I know what you would want with it? Maybe a..." Rita trailed off for a moment, looking away as she tried to think of a reason. "I don't know, maybe you wanted something of mine as a keepsake, you weirdo."

Rita then held up a fist, looking ready to brawl.

"Look, I know I had it on me earlier today, and you're looking like a pretty likely candidate. That key unlocks just about everything, so not anyone can get their grubby hands on one!"

Seeing the girl raise her fists for a fight, Hajime knew things were about to go south if things continued to spiral out of control. Without a second though, he stepped between Rita and Saitama, a disapproving scowl on his face, "Or maybe you just dropped it? Honestly, you shouldn't be accusing my friend just because he 'looks' like a likely candidate. Get some proof, kid, or..." He paused a moment, trying to think of what he could say that might make her back down.

"... Or I'll tell Jade that you're threatening guests to cover up your own mistake."

Yeah, that might work.

Gritting his teeth, the skeletal knight gives the tall, crooked man, a small nod of acknowledgement
He could feel the voice booming inside of his head before the male spoke, then he heard the real voice speak, it was an odd sensation to hear the same voice talking from two places, and the slight echo and distortion of his voice didn't help matters much

"I don't suppose you're going to ask for my autograph..."

Gaster remained still, looking Papyrus up and down. The smile on the man faltered abit as he looked at the blue jacket he had adorned on him. The faint, fragments of memory would be shut out before they could be shown once more. Gaster would give a nod to Papyrus

"From where I'm from shindigs like this are a normal occurrence." Jezebel replied downing the last of her whiskey, the glass she handed off to Mickey like she expected him to know what to do. "You can call me Jezebel, I'm not quite sure what to call you however."

Rose leading the way noticed someone along the wall feeling Raven may could relate poked her arm. "Hey Rae you wanna go speak to them they seem kind of like us if you know what I mean?" She commented and noticed Raven turn to look then Raven looked back. "Or more like you being I bet you were talking about the armor their near too." She replied in monotone. Rose sighed. "Just come on you didn't say if you wanted to dance and I'm not willing to try and find my mp3." Rose commented. Raven gave a sigh. "Well I was following you anyways..." She replied and finally the two headed over near a girl leaning on the wall. "Hey" Rose greeted.

Little did he know that Morrigan was likely not joking, though perhaps more attention should be brought to the fact that it looked like Saitama had already forgotten her name just a few moments later.

tumblr_inline_mqm5xiQt1M1s5ig4s.png


When Rita would speak, Saitama would only seem more and more mystified.

"A... keepsake? Why would I want anything from a kid?" He asked, his brow twitching a bit as it seemed that she was quite adamant on putting the blame on him. The backup from Hajime was appreciated, but there was no need.

After all, he was a hero!

tumblr_inline_nq0s9fpZjY1sftfvm_540.png


With that, Saitama would calm himself down and take a breath, before speaking again.

"Anyway, thanks for the help, but I got it covered from here," Saitama would say to Hajime, before looking at Rita again, "Look... How about this? I'll help you look for your key. I didn't steal it or anything, so it really doesn't have anything to do with me, but it's the least I could do for... uh, your excellent service."

Morrigan felt no need to correct him. She sensed that was a pointless endeavor with this guy. "I wasn't joking, darling."

 
Rita scoffed at Saitama. "Right, and you help me look so that they key gets 'conveniently' found by you. I don't think so." She then gave Hajime a sour grimace. "You weren't even here, so butt out!"

Groaning, Rita turned her back on the group. "Whatever, I'll just try and ask for a new one. If you do have the key, don't you even try getting up to no good with it, you hear?"

He doesn't bother to question how he could understand the man, he just seemed to accept that it was something he could naturally do, thinking too much about anything related to the man sent a sharp pain through Papryus' bones, making him feel as though he'd been shocked with electricity, a feeling the skeleton wasn't exactly adjusted to. He avoided too much deep thought on the matter, because no matter how much he felt deep down he knew the man, he never seemed to get any closer to the truth, he couldn't gather anything other than the fact he knew this man from somewhere

"O-Oh, right, sorry," Hajime responded quietly, not wanting to step on the hero's toes by continuing to try and help. He even ignored Rita's outburst and Morrigan's teasing, instead wondering if there was anything else to do or if Slavya was still hanging around. Even when there isn't a murder going on, parties just aren't the best place with my luck...

How was Ryan not surprised? A soft sigh passed her lips, and the Caster found herself taking a pause before responding. Yeah.... Definitely a good thing that she wasn't like her sisters. Or Larkin. ...Yeah, Larkin's story was one for another day. Right now, though, this was Ryan's. And she was of a much more sweet, gentle, patient, and loving nature than any of her siblings. Or her cousin, at that. So, her response was much more patient and fond.

Even if Gilgamesh's talk of Arthur sparked a small flame of sadness in the young woman.

"I understand that you don't see eye to eye with me, but.. Have you heard the Mortal saying? 'Innocent until proven guilty'?" she asked, pursing her lips slightly. "He hasn't acted devilishly, whether he's 'influenced' me or not. After all, my sister is a Siren - and she's... Well, a much better person than she could be." Sure, she had realized that Ridley wasn't the best person - but it was more than true to say that she was good in comparison to how evil she should have become.

Admittedly, Ryan wasn't sure of just why Kilgrave wanted her giving drinks to some girl, but she didn't have much of a choice. Besides, helping was a good thing... Hopefully. Regardless, as Kilgrave walked away, Ryan flashed Gilgamesh a smile. "See? No tricks or stunt pulled. Maybe he isn't as bad as you think."

@Gen. Magic Senpai @Cromartie Sarkissian
Ryan was speaking sense, and she was right... Practically speaking Kilgrave was a piece of human filth, and Gilgamesh could tell that the second he spoke. But it was true this wasn't actual proof but rather instinct. And although the whole requirement for proof wasn't one he often agreed with, it is the philosophy that has led many talent people, so he had to at least respect it. Once Kilgrave departed Gilgamesh retracted Enkidu back into the Gates of Babylon, so that Ryan was free to move about again.

"Hmph! If you wish to endanger yourself like that then fine! But know that by doing so it's not just yourself you are putting in danger", which was probably the closest Gilgamesh was going to get to laying off for now. Then rubbing his temple a bit, stressed by the current situation he figured they'd both be best served dropping the topic. So he said "And to answer your question earlier, I've been busy... Long Story short I've ran into other murder games since the Crimson Moon incident".
