(OOC: I never neglect my roleplays, what are you talking about?)
Natalie
Natalie was unprepared for the punch and it connected solidly. But instead of being flung backwards or doubling over, she simply stood there dumbfounded. She felt no pain from the strike, she wasn't even angry at Rein for punching her. She wasn't certain what she felt really, but it was a calming feeling.
"Very well," she said finally, "I suppose I can't deny what's standing in front of me. I'll be a goddess if I must. But I'm not Nayru, even if I do have her memories and power."
She seemed to be the only one who hadn't accepted herself as the goddess she bore the memories of. Layla was asleep, but Natalie understood how the Goddess's mind worked enough to understand that she was just as much Layla as Lilith.
"If these memories are accurate, you're going to want to say this chant." Natalie told Rein,
"In the frightening dark With sheer force of will Through becoming one with fear And the might to overcome any obstacle Lend me your power That I may free myself"
It was a silly chant, but Rein was going to need it until she got a better feel for her abilities. Natalie would make a point of teaching Rein how to avoid the chant and extended transformation as soon as possible. Being flashy was a frivolity that neither she nor her partner had any need to indulge in. Although she couldn't deny she kind of liked the outfit... Not that she would ever be willing to admit that out loud.
Eden
Eden stared disdainfully at the building before her. The building itself was not the issue though, the issue was the people inside it. The perimeter of the building was blocked off to prevent morons from re-entering the supposedly flaming building. Eden figured that the supposed fire meant her targets knew she was coming, which also meant it was a good thing she had come personally instead of sending some of Her's worthless goons. Eden's surrogate mother wouldn't exactly be pleased that she had sneaked out, and probably even less pleased when Eden failed to return with live prisoners--assuming she returned at all. But Eden didn't give a shit what Her thought, she had her own agenda. Inside the building stood the only four beings for whom she held any form of animosity, and she was going to take pleasure in murdering them. Feeling the time was right, she exerted a small portion of her power. The ground beneath her began to warp and time seemed to move slower around her. An instant later she stood inside the large school building. She took off at a run, searching for her prey. Unfortunately, she didn't know exactly where her targets resided, so it would take her a while to find them. But knowing who she was hunting, that while would be a short one.
As she rounded a corner she saw a firefighter. The man gave her a concerned look and opened his mouth--presumably to tell Eden that it was dangerous inside--but froze in place as Eden quickly extended her hand to touch him. She felt remorse at freezing him, he was probably treated terribly already without her freezing him for an hour. If he was lucky he'd only be scolded for being tardy, she didn't even want to think what would happen if he wasn't lucky. But as strong as the compassion she felt towards the people of this world was, her hatred for those who did not belong was far greater. Nothing was going to prevent her from achieving her goal. And so with one last pained look at the frozen firefighter she continued her sprint down the hall
Alexus
"Well, in your case it harms people you view as your enemies who stand within the storm." Alexus explained, "And it heals yourself and those you perceive as allies when they are within it, I think."
Alexus didn't voice her concern that it might not be as black and white as "enemy" and "ally." Instead she considered Arturia's first question for a moment.
"As for your other question, there's a 90% chance that nothing bad would happen." The percentage was less an accurate number and more a very loose approximation she pulled out of her ass, "But there's also a teeny chance whatever part of your body you were trying to focus it around would implode. Although in your case it would come right back since it would implode with a superdense healing storm. You would just feel the pain of your hand imploding and rebuilding itself repeatedly within the space of a few seconds before you passed out from said pain."
Alexus wondered what would happen with other Fury abilities for a moment.
"I think with a Thunder Fury it would probably just shoot electricity through their nervous system and fry it, but I wonder if that would fry absolutely everything and kill them, or just stop some of their nervous functionality..." She muttered absentmindedly.
