Calvera hurriedly retreated back to a point in the cavern where she could be alone, that being near where they had encountered Flowey. She took a seat on the ground, and wrapped her arms around her knees, the marks of her teardrops apparent on her jeans. So I was right... I am a bother to those around me. Clearly if Armi thinks that I cling to him, that's how he feels... and to think I came down here to make sure he didn't go and get himself killed... She wiped at her eyes with a hand, and sniffled. Alright... pull yourself together, Cal, he's just not for you... it'll be fine. If he doesn't c

Calvera had begun to smile a little bit as soon as she heard that he shared feelings with her, but it slowly returned to a frown the more Arminius talked on. She felt like she interacted with those around her decently... not that she had many options at the moment... and also considering Arminius was the only one that treated her the way that really made her heart tug. This was an even newer emotion for Calvera... heartbreak. She looked to the floor and didn't know what to say, nor did she know how to process this. Eventually, she spoke up, albeit a little quiet. "I... understand. I'll uhm...

"If you wish~" Calvera giggled, seemingly having a good time. She smiled at Arminius, and then her gaze met the ground. "So, I've had something that I've been meaning to ask you-" She shoves her hands into her pockets, she looked back to Arminius, with a smile on her face, but something seems off about it. "-I've just been wondering... after that night in the woods, with the kiss, and the emotions there... I..." Her smile turns to the slightest bit of a frown, and she wipes away a rogue tear. "I know this isn't the best place, but it's been on my mind... where do we stand? I know how I feel...

"Well that seems a little easy..." Calvera looks over the puzzle, just in case there are any other solutions, before conceding that the markings are correct, by her guesses. Calvera pulls the two labelled switches. She waves to Arminius as he finally caught up. "Hey! You missed me solving a puzzle~"

"Oh wow, that worked! Hah, look at me go! Guess I am getting a bit better at logic..." Calvera smiles a toothy smile, ecstatic with her accomplishment, and then squeals in excitement quietly. "GAH THIS IS SO FUN!" She looks around at the ruins, just taking in the odd beauty of it, before going into the next room by the time the kid had flipped the wrong switch. She smiles, and messes with the kid's hair with her hand playfully. "Here hun, let me give it a try..." Calvera reads the plaque, as well as the yellow paint scribbles.

Calvera reads the plaque, and starts trying to work out the solution. She looks between the buttons and the puzzle a couple times, before she goes and presses all the buttons but the center one. It was her best guess, but she felt good in her answer.

"Oh crap... wait, she didn't seem like she wanted to kill me..." Calvera mentally perks up, because hooray for a non-threatening person! Hopefuly. Assuming the others are with her, she approaches the door and looks at the plaque.

Calvera looks at Arminius with a look of joyful confusion. Like she really wants to understand what he's talking about fully, but isn't quite putting it together. She shrugs. "I'm completely out of my area of knowledge here, guys... sooo... I guess it's safe to say not everything down here is going to be friendly... not that I expected that..." She scratches the back of her head out of embarrassment, and pulls her braid back down over her shoulder, and does a little finger gun motion with a snap included. "You know, I think I'll just leave the serious stuff to you two, let me know if you want

"Armi! You okay?" Calvera jogs over, and looks concerned.

"God damn nature... Armi!" Calvera starts trying to pull the ovoid bullets away from Arminius with a Gravity Well, attempting to pull them off as they pass by it on one side.

"Man... I wanted to hug it..." Calvera frowns, hoping deep down that Rachel was wrong, and it really was just a cuddly and harmless talking flower... she could use a new friend, after all. She makes sure the kid doesn't go forward, keeping them back with Rachel and herself.

Calvera leans over to Arminius, and whispers to him. "...I kind of want to hug the talking flower, Armi..." She waits for a reaction, but god damn it this flower is cute.

"Is that a talking flower...?" Calvera looks to the heart in front of her, then back over to Flowey. "Well this is cute!" She turned to Arminius, and then back to Flowey. "So what do these hearts have to do with being in the underground? Oh... you're probably about to explain." Calvera laughs a short laugh at herself.

Calvera, not one to be left alone, turns off her bright light, and follows the pair. She wasn't the tactical type... she sighed, and crossed her arms. "I think we might just want to stay together... better than Armi getting caught by surprise alone..."

"Sooo... I guess we just wait here?" Calvera turns to Rachel, and gives a shrug. Truth be told, Rachel was an... intimidating presence to her, but she was trying her best to hide that.

Calvera nods to Arminius, and smiles. "Just be careful, please."

Calvera shrugs, and looks around, her gaze setting on the flower bed. "Question... Do flowers normally grow underground?" She picked one up to inspect, then dropped it. "And here's an idea... so we saw a door in our vision... maybe there's people here? There have been everywhere we've gone so far... so maybe there are some here... and maybe we can find shelter with them?" Calvera knew it was a long shot, but it was worth the wondering. Maybe there were others down here that could help them... or maybe they were killers. She didn't know, but it was worth a shot in her eyes.

Calvera dusts herself off, and looks to Arminius and Rachel, smiling seeing they're okay. "Hey, glad to see you two are alright. Figured I'd come to keep you guys company. Strength in numbers and all... the others went to find the door from the vision. Couldn't bring myself to let you two be down here by yourselves. Especially considering we're here to fix whatever is going on here... anyhow... need a light?" Calvera continues her glowing if it's a little too dark to see. No sense trudging around in the darkness.

"I mean... I don't know about you, sir..." Calvera gestured to Nader, and smiled. "But I think if we're able to control our descent, as Proditor mentioned, I think we'll be okay! And... we got two of our own down there, I'm definitely not going to leave them alone. Speaking of which..." She stepped towards the edge, and "flipped the switch" on her levitation, and began to slowly descend down the chasm. "Feel free to help!" With that said, she continued her descent, and uses Blinding Light to light the path below her, as her body begins to glow with white light.

Calvera herself just steps forward, and lifts Lucine back to ground with her gravity well before dispersing it, leaving Lucine standing. She steps forward, and give Lucine a short hug. "It's okay... accidents happen. We know you didn't mean to... I'm sure the others will be able to get the kid back up here." Calvera herself wasn't one to normally try comforting others, mainly because she always felt like she made whatever situation worse. Especially after someone, granted she didn't remember who, going off on her after trying to comfort Satomi before. Yet, her she was, giving it another try. S

"Oh phew! That was close... You okay!?" Calvera releases a sigh of relief, and smiles. There was one thing that she did without screwing up. And without fire. Well... besides her missing one. She blinked as she realized. Little late on the draw...

Calvera held her own tongue, but focused. If this was to come to the child beginning to fall down the hole, she'd carefully prepare to put a Gravity Well by the edge, to prevent him from falling.

Calvera had halted when the group did, staying silent. She wasn't much of a talker... especially when it came to delicate situations like the one they had found themselves upon.

Calvera hops out of the bus, and looked around with a smile on her face. She takes a light spin on her heel to take in her surroundings. Her eyes widened at the view, and she let out a sigh of relief. "It's so pretty here! Look at all the trees!" It wasn't necessarily Calvera's place to notice the lack of birds chirping, until Arminius and the others spoke up about it. This prompted her to lessen the smile, and keep an eye out, subconsciously staying closer to Arminius. She looked around at the people she was with, and two things peeked her attention. The first, was the man in the giant suit o
