Ami nods and shrugs. She gives Erma a smile; no need to worry! Just curious.

"Ah!"

I must be the most prettiest princess ever to grace your own hooman-world's fiction, right?

Rey scratches his cheek and looks away. "I don't feel comfortable with this line of conversation."

Erma raises an eyebrow. What's that supposed to mean?

"Moving on, if you're here without families or friends, you'll need a place to stay. You can just crash wherever in this place. Except in a room that's already occupied. And Erma?"

Erma stands alert.

"No scaring people. I have enough trouble sleeping as it is."

Thumbs up, dude! She giggles. No sweat, lads~.

Erma, would you like to room together? You can scare me all you want! I think. Not too badly. But a little!

... Oh, god, Geo must be in SO MUCH trouble back home...

Erma smiles excitedly and raises a hand. Hi-five!

Rey gives the two a flat look with the faintest hint of a smile. Since the girls clearly have things under control, he goes to grab some snacks like he first intended.

She waves goodbye to their new acquaintance! Whose name she doesn't think she got. Erma, did you get his name?

Whatever! Time to find a room and hopefully find a way to... protect Geo from mom.

Maybe there's someone here that can help?

Rey peeks out from the counter. "Oh, right, my name's Rey! The guy you might've seen earlier was Dylan. Then there's Omega, a dude who occasionally looks like a skeleton; Rbade, a figurative goblin walking around in a mishmash of costume parts and sometimes coming up with mad theories; Rhea, a literal yellow-skinned goddess; and Mothra."

Erma's eyes light up, including the one still obscured by her Blinding Bangs. The sparkle pierces the stringy black veil. She does the stereotypical "excitedly clenching fists" pose, the one where the person holds their hands up at their sides. Mothra! Mothra! I wanna see the monster!

"Don't get too excited, she's not usually here... y'know, because a moth that dwarfs skyscrapers wouldn't fit in this hotel."

Aww...

Whoah, this is cool! She squees as she looks at Erma; you know this Mothra one? Maybe you can point out some others too!

We should probably call dibs on a room now, though.

Shadow sighs.

   "Well, people often say they wish for eternal life. I'm living it, and I gotta' say, seeing friends, allies, and even simple acquaintances you grow close to grow old and infirm over the years isn't very reassuring...it's one of the best arguments against immortality, I say, and I understand those immortals who look for a way to finally end it. I completely see why people wouldn't want to go through that."   

He shrugs.

   "Believe you me, many antiheroes have done that or worse at some point. Even some of the biggest-name heroes have been pushed to break their moral code at some times. There's a place for pretty much everyone."   

His smile turns into a smirk, and he tilts his head.

   "I gotta' say, it was really kind of you. I, personally, am happy that you did so."   

He nods, returning to a bit more of a neutral expression.

   "Fair, I suppose."   

His pensive expression becomes a wry grin, and he tilts his head.

   "Well, to be completely honest, if you really must know, it's simply that I have a pretty good hunch about what you said."   


Lucien and Grymm both raise an eyebrow, and they exchange a glance as Lucien hands a card to Grymm.

   "Rather honorable, for an assassin."   

"Well, he is an ex-Assassin, now, but, nevertheless, this is indeed quite generous."

They turn the cards over when instructed, and Grymm silently grins, while Lucien at first seems to stare at the card for a while...

-Beat-

..then his faint smirk becomes very close to a genuine smile, and he actually starts laughing, catching Grymm off-guard. Lucien eventually calms down, and, after rubbing his eyes, he gives an only slightly more reserved smile, clapping.

"Bravo! Ah, I suppose it would not have been fitting for anything but such to survive and serve as your rather literal calling card...you truly are quite the whimsical sort, and a magnificent Magician. I do not say this often at all, but, despite myself, I find myself looking forward to seeing what tricks you will perform next..."

Grymm then steps up to Hisoka before he leaves, and rummages in his pockets, producing something and offering it to him. The item turns out to be a scrap of parchment, with 'Mister Grymm' written in surprisingly graceful handwriting, and a peculiar crest sketched underneath, which appears to be composed of a goblet encircled by a wreath of narrow-leaved branches, bearing small, dark berries. Behind the wreath is a dagger, pointed diagonally downward. The goblet appeares to be embossed with the initials ' SP '.

   "Hey, if you're going to be doin' that, then it's only fair we make this professional by exchanging information, yeah? Here's my card. I ended up losing most of mine to time, but Lucien helped me replace them. I could end up being a licensed Bounty Hunter again, if fate willed it."

"Seeing them grow old instead of seeing them die young sounds like a much better deal to me.", Tahn says. "But I'm not interested in immortality myself regardless. Yeah, living super long sounds awesome, but having no end in sight sounds... bleak."

He then just shakes his head.

"If people like me are allowed there, it can't be paradise.", he says with a tone of finality, indicating that Shadow cannot change his mind on the matter.

He then just glances to the side, looking embarrassed and grumbling a bit childishly at the praise.

He then looks back at Shadow.

"Did'ya now? If so, then you're good."

He looks back at his food, then back at Shadow.

"So, uh... well, I wanna finish my food before it gets cold, so we should probably round off our conversation right about now. Not that it's not been fun, it definitely helped against the boredom of staying in this place, but I kinda wanna eat in peace."


Hisoka stops walking and looks amused when he hears Lucien's reaction, turning around to look.

   "Why, thanks for the compliment~"   , he smirks. He then looks at Grymm when he approaches, waiting for him to find what he's looking for, and takes what he's offered, looking at it.

   "Now this looks rather nice. It reminds me of something in my world."   

He looks back at Grymm as he pockets it.

   "Thank you. I'll make sure to take good care of it. In that case, let's make it even."   

While chuckling, he points at the cards Grymm and Lucien are holding, and a moment later, he turns back around and leaves the area.

If they look back again, they'll now see that, in the right corners of the cards, Hisoka has somehow added 'Hisoka' with a heart and tear emoticon next to it, the very same ones he has underneath his eyes.

Funny Valentine is seated on a rock formation in the middle of the shallow lake, arguing some kind of philosophy with a man in a sailor outfit.

Clearspring Tarn

Frigus and Boyero had finally tracked down their targets. The pair hid behind a small grouping of trees. Frigus's Ice Serpent coiled around her body, snapping its jaws. Boyero turned to Frigus,

   "So, a head on approach as we discussed?"   

Frigus sighed, nodding. She stepped out of the tree formation, with an elegant stride. Her gaze focused on Funny Valentine. Unsheating her blade, the serpent coiled around her letting loose a shriek. She continues to walk towards her opposition.

"Narktus sends his regards."

Boyero stays in his current position, hoping to stay hidden for the moment.

Funny Valentine raises an eyebrow.

"Friend of yours?"

"Not at all. No idea about this 'Narktus' fellow, either. D4C!"

Valentine's Stand manifests behind him.

"Soft & Wet!"

Josuke Higashikata 8 (Gappy for short) manifests his own Stand.

"Friend or foe?"

"Foe, and your death."

A freezing wind sets in on the area, Frigus's cape blowing in the breeze. Her Ice Serpent uncoils from her body, it flies to the body of water, burrowing itself within it. Surely enough, the tarn freezes over turning into a bright white ice. Frigus charges the pair, with dizzying speed.

Boyero from behind the trees, starts to mutter an incantation of some sort. The trees and ground around him start to freeze rapidly.

They Are Those of 'Justice'!

Soft & Wet shoots what appears to be a soap bubble with a five-point star image visible inside, facing towards observers regardless of their angle like the inside of Dragon Ball.

If the bubble hits Frigus, it will slip off of her, and then she will completely lose control of her velocity, putting her at risk of colliding into a nearby boulder. Otherwise, Gappy is wide open.

Funny Valentine notices Boyero and grimaces. He springs off his perch, carried by his Stand, and throws up an American flag the size of his body. As he hits the ground, the flag falls over him, and he disappears beneath it.

Boyero is surprised, by the sudden disappearnce of his enemy but keeps his cool. He finishes his incantation, slamming the ground with his palm. A thundering boom and a blinding flash of light encase the entire area in a thin, transparent ice. Very slippery.

Frigus is hit by the bubble, losing control of her speed, she is certainly not aided by the ice that now covers the ground. She collides with the boulder, a brief grunt escapes her mask.

Boyero sighs in disappointment, he slowly raises himself in the air hovering just above the ice. He holds out his right hand, a scythe of pure ice forms in a near instant.

   "Interesting ability, but nothing can save you from the cold."

Gappy gives Boyero a smug smirk. "Is that a fact?"

He sends the same bubble at Frigus, and it pops against her, releasing heat with a sizzle - because it had stolen her friction, and now that it is being returned, it comes back all at once.

Funny Valentine peeks out from under the flag, easily breaking its frost-coated edges from the ice layer. Then so does Funny Valentine. And Funny Valentine. And so on.

Ten Funny Valentines emerge from under the flag. 'Funny Prime' is the last one out, and he pulls the flag up and coils it into a bundle with a quick arm-whipping motion. "What made you think the President of the United States would flee from an adversary?" they all say to Boyero in unison, striking various poses. "I, Funny Valentine, will retrieve the Holy Corpse parts, and with the assembled Corpse I shall shield my nation from misfortune forever! You are nothing more than an obstacle in my path!"

Gappy looks unamused at Funny's posturing. He shoots a torrent of bubbles at the ground in front of him, stealing the cold away from the ice to make it safe to stay on.

Boyero had no reaction,

   "President of the United States? Gathering Body Parts? Im certain there's a joke to be made here. No matter, I will cleave as many of you into pieces as necessary, makes it more fun anyways."   

He finished his sentence with a tone of glee, he grasps the scythe with both hands and takes a defensive stance.

Frigus stands, disappearing in a cloud of snow, and reappearing over the frozen over Tarn. She stabs her blade into the Tarn, smugly chuckling. A deafening shriek escapes the ice. The Tarn is encased in a quite large cloud of snow. Moments later, the cloud clears. Next to Frigus stands an Ice Golem similar in height and body shape to Gappy. A low grumble emanates from it. At the center of its chest is the Ice Serpent, swirling around inside the Golem.

Gappy immediately shoots a bubble to try and steal away the Ice Serpent's control of the golem.

"Stop playing it defensively already!" one Funny barks to his temporary ally, while the rest swarm Boyero with wild punches and kicks, trying to overwhelm him with sheer numbers.

Boyero laughs maniacally, swiftly dodging the group's attacks one by one, countering each with his own attempted slashes, hoping to slice his opposition into bits.

   "You're not taking me seriously are you?"   

The Golem narrowly dodges the bubble, turning his attention to Gappy. Frigus and the Golem rush Gappy. The Golem attempts a punch to the throat, while Frigus goes low with a slash to the legs.
