[ If Chongyun got it, then he got it. Hien looks back and forth between the two fights and then looks at the badger. He's still focusing on the fire and ice mediation. His arm has a life of its own. ]
Hey. Whose portion of the selves are these? The boss at Camellia?
[Marcus is just having a field day here... he's been limited all this time while he's been stuck here between his loss of powers and lack of weapon, so being able to go all out is like being given an entire sack full of candy on Halloween! LET TANKY BOI DO HIS THING, he'll keep it busy if you want to go for the kill! His stats ARE all in physical defense, after all...! MIGHT AS WELL MAKE USE OF THEM.
Firing off a few more shots at this big bear, have fun with that, buddy!]
[ Chongyun's combo and icicles are incredibly powerful, and the small bear succumbs to the frost and the swings of his blade. The beast ends up simply fading out, though, and disappears into the atmosphere.
As for Sabo and Marcus...well. There truly is no surviving this either. It at least takes a little while so they can properly get all of that pent up anger and frustration out. The bear fights back and leaves them both with a handful of cuts, none that are too deep but definitely should be bandaged; but it ends up growling before it collapses and also fades into the atmosphere.
The badger has been behind Hien this whole time. ]
...I'm not sure who those two were supposed to be.
[ The smaller one had a purple tint to its fur, reminiscent of a certain employee... and the larger one had a blonde tint. Regardless, they're gone now. ]
...But you have my thanks. I...have certainly had better dreams.
[ Well, that was satisfying. Not just the fight, but the way Chongyun's companions held their own. He scans for any remaining danger before putting away his weapon the old fashioned way. ]
I think this is a rather strong argument for getting our powers back. [ He nods at the badger and then smiles at the other three. Good job, team! ]
[ the purple is a clue for sabo but he says nothing about it (and the yellow is unknown to him because he doesn't actually know the existence of gregory). if anyone wants to open their mouths and make their observations more apparent, he will welcome it. just not him.
instead he'll give chongyun a smile and a nod. ]
We'll make a mess of things if we're allowed to have them back, that's for certain.
[ what kind of mess? who knows, but sabo will be rubbing at the cuts on him and patting himself off generally. it was nice. or. ""nice""??? ]
Dreams are a little more interesting if you have good people in it.
[ Hien knows of Gregory's existence, but he wouldn't think to match the blond tint the bear has with him, because he doesn't match the purple portion with Kyle either. He has other things to think about in his usual "no thoughts, head empty" brain of his.
His arm returns to normal. ]
Want some healing, you two?
[ Maybe Marcus won't know, but Sabo does. Though it's up to him if he wants to risk it...
[ What a group...!!! The badger doesn't say much, simply watching them interact before it lets out a dry chuckle of its own. ]
That's not something I have any control over, but perhaps the other part of me will decide it so in the future. It's a matter of when, at this point, since you are all to go home as promised.
If you have any questions for me, feel free to ask now. Otherwise, I'll be sending all of you back to...reality, I suppose.
There are things Lorelei cannot tell us. [ Hence the "don't trust them" message that Chongyun took as permission for further retaliation against Camellia. ] What can you tell us now while we're here?
[ He doesn't have any specific questions, but he has a feeling there are things Lorelei wants or needs to tell them. Or at least... things she's more willing to divulge now that they've helped her with a bad dream and showed her their fighting spirit firsthand. ]
Ah, no thank you. I'm sure I'll be okay; they're minor.
[ ""minor""? either way, it'll be fine. it's nothing compared to what they went through for saturday and the last thing he needs is to things to go from okay to worse. or...being super okay that it turns back around and goes back to being bad again. ]
But to piggy-back off of Chongyun for a moment, perhaps a bit of a clearer picture of the ideals that you have abandoned?
[ because, well, given how things were crumbling but then stopped the more they began to speak...though that does remind him of something. he'll look down at his mark for a moment before crossing his arms. ]
Kiznaiver. Can you tell us anything about that word?
[ "Minor"... Anyway, gear turning sounds are heard and he manages to heal Marcus to the point that the cuts stop bleeding. The aching part of it still lingers though. ]
Is there any way to counter the pain sent through these wrist marks?
[Marcus nods his thanks to Hien with a slight smile before turning his attention back to the badger. Since this is now a Q&A session...]
Does anything that happens here affect reality? Yours or ours. I'd kinda like to know if I'm going to be going back home to a mess that's gonna need cleaning up.
...My memories are not entirely as clear as hers are, but... I will say that I am the person Lorelei longs to have back in her life. Her humanity, if you will. That being said, I don't believe she considers the experiment to be a mistake nor does she regret it, so make of that what you will. She certainly harbors ill will towards Camellia, also. That...is what most of this dream was comprised of.
[ Now, onto the Kiznaiver project: ]
That term – "Kiznaiver" – sounds familiar. I know she's acquainted with it, but what it means is all a blur. As such, I don't believe there's a way to counter the pain.
As for what will affect reality...well. None of the destruction should, that's for sure. This is a dream, after all. You might feel some pain when you wake up, however.
Which would be...now.
[ The badger starts to fade, as does the world around them. ]
I'll be going, now, and so will you. It's time to wake up.
[ And soon, everything fades into light. It's a bright one that shines on the four people inside of this "dream", sending them back to the real world - the waking world. ]

Hien is not a healer. ]
no subject
[He's in a little bit of pain, but he's had much worse! He can deal. By now he's used to it, and compared to last Saturday? This is honestly nothing.]
... that depends on the healing. Is this an "I know what I'm doing" sort of healing or a "this might possibly work if I'm lucky" sort of healing?
