Shaken? Cel was trembling so hard you'd think there was an earthquake! Eyes still wide from the whole life flashing in front of her eyes thing, it took her a moment to realize that Vers was now doing something that didn't involve her fearing for her life. She quickly snapped out of it and grabbed Vers hand, carefully avoiding tripping over herself. Once she was back on nice, solid, unmoving ground, Cel brushed herself off and regained her composure.
"Ha ha, yeah...but now I'm thinking that everything else here would pale in comparison!" she laughed, suddenly stopping and looking around. The lack of people was explainable...I mean, it was just past sunset, so all of those Unreal people were probably heading back home. What creeped her out were these vibes...she could feel at least one of Them here, but there was an even stranger feeling growing in that direction. Realizing that she was spacing out, she turned back to Vers.
"I think something strange is going on here...not sure if it's a big deal yet, but it's definitely suspicious. I'd keep your guard up..." she suggested, that familiar nervous tone of voice returning.

"What the hell are you talking ab---"
Muri's question was quickly answered by an invisible sheep to the face, which has to be one of the stranger phrases I've written. Before she could even say "(insert profanity here)", she got whacked by another one, and another one, and another one, and another one...
"Agh, that's it! No more mercy, no more playing nice!" she growled, several shadowy tendrils extending from the always-present puddle of shadow around her. They formed a wall around Muri, taking all of the blows...and then hastily wrapping themselves around the 'sheep'. The tendrils would proceed to squeeze the 'sheep' with such force that they'd just straight-up explode.
Yeah, that's right. She just grabbed psychic rocket air and CRUSHED IT TO DEATH.
Bitches don't know 'bout my almighty shadow chicks.

Fredericks immediately rushed to Cinda's side, panicked.
"Holy guacamole! Don't die on me, Cinda! I'll be even more alooooooone!" he cried. )':

Verity nodded and took the phone, examining it for a moment before pulling back. Although sitting on benches on cool, sitting on trees that are at a slightly safer distance is way cooler.

"Aww, don't feel bad, Sparkle Rat! You'll be using those shadow thingies to steal cash in no time!" Larya nodded, suddenly being a supportive friend.
SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG HERE

Cornet didn't seem too intrigued by Aya's not-getting-up-ness, instead too focused on what she just said.
"1,300 years old, huh? Pretty impressive! That means Spinet and I are only ten times your age! Awesome!"
"By inhibitions, would you happen to mean---"
"I can tell we're just going to be the best of friends! We'll go on adventures everywhere! We can go underwater and in caves and go on crazy acid trip journeys and fly and---" Spinet politely tapped Cornet on the shoulder, which caught his attention.
"It's rather late. Didn't we come here to find a place to stay for the night?"
Cornet stroked his invisible beard, wondering where to go from here.
"Guess you're right! But we'll need to find the biggest, fluffiest room in here! And fill it with lasers! And robots! An laser robots! And robot lasers!" he requested/demanded excitedly, his breathing rate picking up as he thought of how awesome this sleepover was going to be~
"Would you happen to have a room even slighty reminiscent of that?" Spinet asked, returning her attention to Aya.

Peylet's expression actually changed...as in, like, a way that was actually noticeable. She looked rather sad with DBA's choice, as if she now felt guilty for ever opening her mouth in the first place.
"But don't you have dreams, DBA? Isn't there something you want more than anything? Don't you want to go home, don't you want to make a change somewhere, do something, be one of Them...? W-Would you...would you really give all of that up just because of our friendship?" she asked, emotion actually present in her voice (as if the brief stutter wasn't surprising enough).
Whoa. Whoa.

Sileny nodded and snapped her fingers, resulting in the two vanishing in a super-detailed manner. I mean, LOOK AT ALL OF THESE DETAILSSSSSS
|Umbra's Mansion|
Halyn didn't like that laugh. It wasn't very cuddly. ):
"Hmm. That's rather...interesting. But does she hate you so much that she'd find a way to get to the Test Reality just to get to you? Seems like quite the hassle, considering how tricky getting here is without Their assistance. I mean, even if she did find a way to get in touch with one of Them, wouldn't she rather just have you stuck in this Reality? Very strange." she mused, half talking to herself and half seeing if Julias actually knew what was going on with Flare's sudden appearance.

Dicro's mind was probably more comfortable, anyways, mainly because he's not a little girl. Yeah.
Initially, Dicro was (naturally) kind of 'FGSFGDLGF' upon his very first experience with having a mind creeper creeping in his mind ('cause that's what they kind of do), but he managed to bring his fgsfgdlgf levels back down to normal in an impressive amount of time. Once he got that out of his system, he approached the situation rather casually in stark contrast to Fray's constant anxiety.
"Okay, I know she's kind of creepy, but what loli isn't? She can't be that ba---"
And then Aita decided to start talking again.
There was no proper response. Even Fray managed to overcome her newfound hatred for Aita in order to D:.
"...I pity you."
Neren seemed rather confused with the awkward silence, wondering if perhaps she said something they found offensive. Before she could question them, completely unaware of how beautifully disconcerting Aita was, Sileny and the King of Hearts would almost spontaneously appear in the nearest corner. That only served to prolong the awkward silence.
[Is this a bad time?]

She totally wasn't peeking or anything. I don't know what you're talking about. THAT'S JUST RIDICULOUS MAN
This post has a lot of detail in it.
