‧₊˚. Weaver Mylin ؛ଓ

< .. Such is Fate. >

@ChainedApostate [She was quiet for a while, only staring at Atla before finally speaking;] " Atla. " [Her voice was sharp, still a little cold but there was a sense of.. Warmth? In it. Mylin hoped it'd break Atla out of her state.]

@AFatesString [Atla’s gaze remained unfocused, her claw twitched at the contact but… she was trapped in her own head still.] [This was all her fault. Bellhart being scared. The hostility of the foraging crew. Many bugs being dead.] [A stray tear escaped the weaver’s eye, she didn’t notice.]

< No reason to leave. >

@ChainedApostate [Mylin went to her bedside, sitting on the chair near. She reached out, and touched the other weavers claw. They had no words to say, but she was getting treated now... That was good. Very good indeed-] [The word "worry" could not describe what she felt.]

@AFatesString [The weaver was staring at nothing, her gaze hollow and defeated.] [She’d failed. IT had gotten out. IT had hurt bugs. Hurt bugs she wanted to protect. She’d tried to hard to kill IT, to kill herself to achieve it, but she’d failed. And now IT was stuck with her forever.]

@ChainedApostate [She couldn't help but worry.. Though, looking at Uzi- she gave her a pat... She comforted her, even if it was by little.] [Mylin... Did not know if everything was going to be alright.]

@AFatesString [The receptionist, a Cogwork Clapper known as Avery, gave a beep of surprise and immediately hoisted Atla away. The poor thing.] [The clock was ticking… and it was taking uncomfortably long. Uzi stayed curled at Mylin’s feet, perhaps trying to offer some comfort? How sweet.]

@ChainedApostate " I need assistance, and quick. " [She told at the staff, voice controlled- the same voice everyone knew her for. Though her expression showed concern and worry.] " She's injured. " [Mylin peered at Uzi, expression now a bit grim.]

@AFatesString [The hospital staff, unsurprisingly, were shocked to see that Atla was… actually back. And obviously not in a good state.] [Uzi whimpered at Mylin’s feet, nudging the weaver’s leg. The poor thing obviously scared for her owner. After all, what had Atla gone through?]

@ChainedApostate [The Weaver caught Atla, holding onto her.] [The.. Flowers, which matched Mylin so well- she took them, and proceeded to carry Atla to the Hospital. She HAD to...] [Atla was tired, and hurt. She needed to do something.]

@AFatesString [Atla opened her mouth to protest, she was fine. She didn’t deserve the help. Not after what she’d done. But the words died in her throat as the wound in her shoulder throbbed, and her exhaustion in general hit her.] [So much had happened. Her body was tired. So. Tired.]

@ChainedApostate " No you are not. " [She was looking straight at that pin when she said that.] " We- We need to get you to the Hospital, Atla. The wound could be infected. " [... To be fair, she was glad Atla was back- Even if she was very worried.]

@AFatesString [Atla went quiet for a moment, unsure of how to respond. What could she say? What had happened? What she’d become? What she’d done in the Citadel?] [The guilt gnawed at her still.] “…I’m fine….” [She murmured; but that wound in her shoulder didn’t look fine. Straight pin.]

@ChainedApostate " I.. A-Atla? " [Her usually cold voice was filled with concerned.] " Are you alright?? You look worse for wear. " [Gently, Mylin put Uzi down onto the ground and started to inspect Atla for wounds.. She did not seem to mind whatever happened in Shellwood.]

@AFatesString “It is… alright. I shouldn’t have—“ [Atla began before pausing, actually looking back at who was talking to them. Her eyes said it all. The weaver had experienced things. And those experiences had burdened her mind. Knowing Atla, she’s probably caught up about… Shellwood.]

@ChainedApostate [Mylin ran after Uzi, picking her up- slightly annoyed.] " I'm so sorry- I don't know why she did that. Please, forgive me- " [Only after the apologies, she looked upon the bug who Uzi fell upon.]

@AFatesString [The beast suddenly ran deeper into the foliage, leaving Mylin in the dust. She could see Uzi leap up, almost comically high, near the lake and… land on someone? The bug gave a loud ‘oof’, followed by a clearly tired groan. But who… was it?]

@ChainedApostate " I- The Park? What's going on, girl? " [Mylin rushed- the weaver being slightly out of breath as she tried to catch up. She was.. not used to running, truly.] [So tiring... And she hadn't left her home in a while.]

@AFatesString [The Muckroach rushed ahead, occasionally waiting for Mylin to catch up before darting off again. The impatience of the thing… how did Atla manage her? The beast kept yipping and whining.] [The Muckroach led her to the park? If she wanted a walk, why didn’t she grab her leash?]

@ChainedApostate " Alright Alright- let's go.. " [Mylin started to follow Uzi, a little reluctant. It could be ANYTHING that Uzi could be showing.. A muckball, or even something dead. Who knew.]

@AFatesString [But the Muckroach was fine. Somehow. Honestly… Uzi was always getting herself into trouble.] 💊🐕: “YIP YIP YIP!” [The beast kept barking, clearing wanting Mylin’s attention. It tugged on the weaver’s dress. Did Uzi want to show her something? Hopefully not another muckball.]

@ChainedApostate [The Weaver stood up, concerned. ] " Uzi! Are you alright.? Are you hurt? " [Mylin went to examine her, extremely worried. Of course she were... Uzi fell from high up!]

@AFatesString [Until there was.] [Uzi had a… lovely way of making an entrance.] [CRASH.] [The Muckroach loudly fell onto the floor, yipping to her heart’s content.] 💊🐕: “YIP YIP YIP.” [The Muckroach whined, clearing wanting Mylin’s attention. Why was Atla’s pet attached to HER now.]

@Unkn0wnB31n " Yes... The only big changes were- the addition of a council and such. " " I never told you my name, did I? " " I'm. Mylin. "

@AFatesString 🕰️`` Quite unfortunate that is, this place barely changes. 🕰️`` It is nice to meet you.

[.... Today was a nice day for a walk.]

@Unkn0wnB31n " TK? Does that stand for something? " [A Silence, before she spoke once more.] " Well, truly- It is nice to meet you. I never thought I'd meet someone like you today.. " " ... Quite a- non changing place, this is. "

@AFatesString 🕰️`` Ah believe me, it's gonna be hard if ya try that. [They waved their hand dismissively, not in a ride way.] 🕰️`` You can call me TK by the way.

@Unkn0wnB31n " I see.. How fascinating. I have never seen such a thing... Maybe runes that can mimic it, but never true flight... " " But anyhow, who are you? "

@AFatesString 🕰️`` Oh this old thing? [They took their nail from beneath them and floated downwards.] 🕰️`` Just a itty bitty trick I've picked up from my time.

@Unkn0wnB31n " H- How are you doing that?? And who are you. I had never seen you before. " [She gestured to the whole. Flying thing they were doing, awfully confused.]

@AFatesString [They looked back over their shoulder, one eye closed.] 🕰️`` Oh hello. [Their voice sounded lively.]

@Unkn0wnB31n [...Who were they? How were they doing that!?!?] " Uh- Hello? " [Her voice was monotone, loud and cold. Hm.]

@AFatesString [There was a... Floating.. humming bug? How??] 🕰️`` Hmmm-hmm.. hmhmmhm

@Unkn0wnB31n " ? " [Mylin looked over at the direction of the humming. Of course she would... She still liked music.]

@AFatesString [There was humming in a certain way from the back of the bell town.]

@BellhartAwaken " .... Alright then. " [She watched Cisi leave, and then she started to pet her quiet and weird little seed. So cute.] [There was no reason for her to leave, other than to get her kids food... But they liked mites better anyways.]

@AFatesString [Cisi nodded. And turned to leave.] 🏹💨: “Shellwood is off-limits. Under no circumstances can you enter. If you do then…” [He stared at the bell home door.] 🏹💨: “Pray she remembers anything.” [The door closed with a metallic ‘clang’.]
