Seconds in the past, but not many...

A fallen Seer of Light landed on a blood-spattered, rain-soaked tower. A daughter mourned her mother. And a grimdark girl d̶̜̩̦͔͈̣̪̝̙͉̤̩̯͇̍͊͐ͣ͂ͩ̇̊ͣ̋̈̒͒̉̚͟ê͓͕̹͓̱̞̻̬̮̠̮̘͍̟͍̞̓̇͒ͬ̾̈́͆͑̇̽̃͋̒̎ͭ̊̒͗̕͡s̷̳͔͓̫͔̃͐ͨ̇͑͘͞c̵̶̛̯̭͙͚̠̠̤̖͇̦̤̗͉͑̃̓͊̾ͣ͗̇̄͛̆̽̓̋ͤͮ̚͜͡ͅȅ̡ͬͭͨ̉̿ͨ̌͛̋͐̋ͮ͏̪̮̘͕͙͙̙͔̲͔̤̺͙̯̞͡͞ņ̧͓͎̯͇̥̥̠̣͈̳̫̂͗ͩ̌͋͌̔ͬ̚͜d̓̀ͬ͂̈ͧ̅̒̃̈́̓͌ͭ͊̍̀͏͇͎͙̠̳͓̭̘̜͙̗͖͖̩̣͕̺ę̟̞̫͉̟̔͂̍͐ͥ̇ͨ͂͆ͣͤ͗̽͘d̸̸̜͍͍̘̞̗̟̒ͬ̀͌̉̈̊̏ͥ̂̈͢͝͡ͅ.

But instead of passing through an archway on the staircase down, Rose steps through the archway, and into Milliways.

Seething black tentacles writhe together with the grimdark bloodeldritch energies that seethe through her body, mind, and soul.

The psychically sensitive may feel the dark, alien forces that fill her. They may hear echoes of the susurrus of the Horrorterrors from beyond the Furthest Ring, but if they do, they would be advised not to listen too closely, for the sake of their own sanity.

Rose stops, three steps inside, and whirls for the door; Jack Noir is there not here, and so that is where she should be. But it is too late; the door is already swinging shut, closing with a sharp click even as she reaches it again, and fading into the wall.
Oops. Heehee.

((ooc: And Rose is back, nice and grimdarkened. Please note that unless your character - for some reason - speaks the broodfester tongues (or the tongue of the Great Old Ones, or similar entities), they will be unable to understand what Rose is saying. Likewise her thoughts, if character in question is a telepath.))

Kanaya's been upstars for a good while with Terezi, but after a time she's excused herself and is seated back downstairs.

She doesn't notice Rose at first, but the raised, garbled voice gets her attention, and she looks up from her workbook to look.

Kanaya's eyes widen and she stands. She moves quickly, and like that, there is a faintly glowing hand wrapped around one greyed wrist.

"Rose," she says softly, firmly.
bloodyvirgo: (wut?)

The harsh, garbled words move Kanaya half a step back, looking slightly stricken. She doesn't let go, though, reaching for her other limb.

"Please," she tries. "Put Away The Wands."

[personal profile] bloodyvirgo 2012-05-17 07:05 am (UTC)(link)
She's not letting go just yet, because if she does, she's fairly certain there will be a hole in the wall and Security on them within moments.

"I Don't Understand What You're Saying," she explains at the frustrated garbling.

Yes. There's at least that.

There's another light, concerned touch from Kanaya as she takes a moment to look her Matesprit over.

"What happened?"

Kanaya, Kanaya, darling, we've been over this, you can't understand her.

Rose just has to make due with what she has for now. So, carefully, Kanaya lowers the pillow from Rose's face, and wraps her arms around her.

She has no idea what's wrong, but it has to be bad, for her to be like this.

Kanaya could care less about that, for the moment. For now, she just holds Rose close, gently rubbing her back and murmuring reassurances.

[personal profile] bloodyvirgo 2012-05-17 07:56 am (UTC)(link)
It's the least she can do, really.

"Come On," she says, leading her away from the wall. "Let's Go Sit Down."

[personal profile] bloodyvirgo 2012-05-17 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
Good. Leading her away from the destruction is a good thing.

Kanaya doesn't take her too far, not just yet, but soon she's seating them on a couch, and drawing Rose close again.

The tentacles are...unnerving, but she's not about to flee from this, from her matesprit.

This single bit of light in all this darkness, gets wrapped around Rose securely.

Even if She can't understand her, Kanaya at least can tell Rose is talking things out. She makes a mental note, though, to ask about these things later.

So, for now, she's silent, rubbing the girl's back gently.

This she notices, and she presses a kiss to white hair.

"I Know," she says. "You Need To Do Whatever You Were Doing Out There, But You're Bound Here For Now. Same As Me."
bloodyvirgo: (unimpressed)

[personal profile] bloodyvirgo 2012-05-17 09:01 am (UTC)(link)
Kanaya just pokes her.

"Hush."
bloodyvirgo: (unimpressed)

[personal profile] bloodyvirgo 2012-05-17 09:07 am (UTC)(link)
Kanaya just raises an eyebrow.

Yes?

Absently, she cards her fingers through Rose's hair.
