As Ryder started leaving, Pugsy's eyes widened "Ah... BIG BRRRROOOO!" he called out as if he was dying, there went his crutch, now he was left alone in RYDER'S bedroom alone with a girl. Then Ivy suddenly yelled GUMBY IS WATCHING, which made Pugsy terrified. Who was this Gumby!? Was he like The Inquisitor!? He couldn't tell! And he wasn't very clear in the head right now "GAH! WHERE!?" he responded to Ivy. And then Ivy just kinda gave him an awkward smile and twiddled her thumbs, once again she was being adorable "Uh..." he looked at her with the same stare "uh... well... you're..." he wanted to compliment her, something nice "STEAK!" nope.

When Ryder heard Pugsy shouting his name like he was in his death throes, he raised his eyebrows and leaned over to look in through the doorway...only to see that nothing had really changed. Still...did Pugsy really need the support? Well, then he could give him support, maybe?
Ryder walked just into the doorway, sitting down on the ground in the doorway and making a serious face while giving Pugsy two thumbs up. Moral support at its best!

Ivy tried to think of an answer to Pugsy's desperate question....Where WAS Gumby? She had to tap into her craziness, so she tried slapping her face lightly a few times....It didn't seem to be working.

"I...I'm not sure...I think it's safe to say he's everywhere, though..."

She said, not realizing this might freak Pugsy out even more...bad idea... He then called her...a steak? Seemed legit.

"Oh...thanks? You too..! Also...Burgers!"

She tried replying with an equally flattering compliment. Nailed it. Then Ryder appeared in the doorway and she waved at him.

Pugsy raised both eyebrows when Ivy said that Gumby was everywhere "W-what!? Oh shit..." Pugsy was terrified now, holy crap, he was everywhere! In the trees! In the air! In your socks! But then he saw Ryder, giving him thumbs up, a huge dorky smile popped up on Pugsy's face, RYDER WAS SO COOL. And then he looked back to Ivy, whom actually liked his compliment... steak was a compliment? And she yelled out burgers again... okay? Pugsy once again looked both confused and happy at the same time. Pugsy smiled at Ivy awkwardly before talking again "How.... how about..." okay Pugsy just don't say anything relating to food "DUMBO!" or cartoon characters...

Ivy was about to apologize profusely for scaring him with Gumby, but then Pugsy spoke again and she just looked confused. Dumbo? What are this? APPARENTLY SHE HAD NEVER WATCHED DUMBO. THE HORROR.

"What's that?"

She asked, thinking it was another food or something, since it seemed to be a recurring topic with Pugsy.

Pugsy was about to hit himself in the face AGAIN before Ivy actually responded to Pugsy by asking who Dumbo was, which surprised Pugsy. For once he didn't feel very awkward as he kinda explained "Its... like an elephant... with REALLY BIG EARS... and he flies..." he responded, just nearly realizing that he could easily be describing a drug fueled hallucination. The man let out a sigh "Oh... and not food!" unless you were into eating elephants, but Pugsy didn't think they were very edible anyways.

Ivy sat on Ryder's bed and put her elbows on her knees, resting her head on the palm of her hands as she listened to Pugsy explaining Dumbo. WOAH. That sounded pretty fucking awesome.

"Can I have one?"

She asked, wanting to have an awesome elephant to fly on. Then the "not food" came and she chuckled.

"Not food indeed! Flying elephants are what's IN right now!"

She then heard Ryder and scowled at the information that he offered.

"Crows are assholes."

She concluded simply. Who would be mean to a flying elephant!?!?

I don't know if you can get one... but you can watch one!" he replied to Ivy before Ryder corrected him. He heard Ivy and responded to Ryder the same way "Yeah big bro, crows are assholes!" why would a crow be an asshole for a elephant, that flies!? Pugsy just couldn't understand.

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Jo seemed to go into deep consideration as Emilia brought up an interesting question; what did she want to eat? Obviously, she`d have to think about it. Important life decisions here! "Hm.." She mused quietly, tapping her finger finger against her chin in thought. She wasn`t really a fan of meat, or burgers for that matter. Probably couldn`t even finish one. "Maybe just a salad...?" She wondered. Not exactly filling, but it would probably have to do. They didn`t really have the largest selection of food, which was pretty painful for a picky eater such as herself. Regardless, she wasn`t even that hungry. She honestly just wanted to become closer to Emilia; the blunette had made efforts in the past, such as helping her with her projects like that nifty tank she`d been working on. However, Jo was a strategist, not an engineer. She couldn`t wrap her head around that stuff.

The pair approached the dining hall, where she only now released poor Emilia from her tight grip. "So -- Emilia, what kind of movies do you like?" She asked to make an attempt at conversation. She herself was a huge movie buff, with a particular taste for older films that most people thought were either really cheesy or over dramatic. The Boss blinked, hearing a familiar voice asking for her in the distance. Was that who it sounded like? Yes, yes it was! "Oh! Um, I`ll be right back! Save me a spot, okay?" She mentioned to her comrade quickly before steadily jogging towards the sound of that voice.

When she found the source, she beamed excitedly. Jo approached Henry, not even noticing how completely infuriated the man was. Henry being angry was kind of like a chihuahua; not very threatening or noticeable. She loved him regardless. "Ciao bella!" She greeted, cupping his larger hands in her`s and going on the tip of her toes to kiss him on both cheeks. Because, y'know. She accepted him so frickin` hard.

Ryder nodded to the two of them--crows were assholes! They always stalked you for your food when you were on park benches...
Then a thought occurred to him. ...Were Pugsy and Ivy actually going out now? Or had the derp-fest been just that: just a derp-fest? He looked back and forth between the two of them, seeming a bit confused. He didn't say anything though, because he was only making himself uncomfortable because girlfriends came up again and agh! This whole train of thought was just--no. Just no. He scrambled for a new topic, and ended up blurting out,
"Ravens are cooler than crows! Because...they're...uh.......fancy...?" Perfect.

Ivy frowned as she was told she probably couldn't have a dumbo...But watch it! That sounded pretty cool!

"I wanna watch Dumbo! And yell at the crows! Cause they're assholes!"

She was glad the other two agreed with her, and when Ryder commented on how ravens were so much better, she had to nod and agree

"Of course! I mean Murphy has a raven! NOT A CROW. Cause crows can suck Murphy's dick!"

Now, who Murphy was, she didn't feel the need to explain, obviously assuming everyone knew about Murphy.

Pugsy kinda just stayed there in Ryder's room staring at a wall until he heard Ryder "Uh... yeah... I guess..." he responded to Ryder, scratching the back of his neck nervously. And then Ivy said that she wanted to watch Dumbo, which made Pugsy's face light up and turn read "You wanna watch Dumbo with me!?" he yelled out loud, before she heard her talk about Murphy, whom he did not know. Who was this strange Murphy? Damn Ivy really knew a lot of people...

"FUCK YEAH LET'S WATCH DUMBO!"

Ivy said excitedly, clapping her hands for a second then stopping herself and clearing her throat.

"I mean...yeah..! We should watch it!"

She smiled and sat up properly, bouncing on the bed for a second then stopping herself. SHE WAS AN ADULT. TIME TO ACT LIKE IT. But the bed was so bouncy....

"....Can I jump on the bed, Ry-Ry?"

She asked hopefully, not being able to contain herself from asking.

Henry kept away from Jo, he didn't want any kisses, he didn't even give her a hug "No Jo..." he replied to her in a dry voice. He looked angry, very, very angry. His eyes were filled with anger, his teeth gritting "Jo..." he muttered to her, glaring right into her eyes "What... the... fuck!?" he cussed to his friend. His fists clenched, Henry was not in the mood to be friendly anymore "You destroyed THREE TRILLION DOLLARS worth of cybernetics... and that was AFTER you tried to steal them!

Pugsy grinned when Ivy responded rather enthusiastically to Pugsy's Dumbo idea "YEAH!" he called out with Ivy. And then she softened up "Oh... okay..." he said slumping down, hitting his head again for getting too overly enthusiastic. Pugsy then heard Ivy bouncing on the bed, causing the man to turn a little more red before turning to Ryder "H-h-hey Big bro! We should borrow a dvd player or something to watch movies on!" they had got some form the black market, mostly because their leader was a movie buff, but Pugsy didn't know that. Then he heard Ivy ask whether she could jump on the bed again "Huh..." he turned to Ivy, smiling at her "Sure!" of course it was Ryder's bed, and room, so Pugsy had no reason to allow her to do so. But Pugsy did it anyways, he was getting ahead of himself.

Ivy saw Pugsy hitting himself and frowned

"Pugsyyyy don't hurt yourself!"

She scolded, of course if this was old Ivy, she'd be joining in, assuming it was some sort of ritual of awesomeness or something, but she suppressed the need to hit herself and decided to try and get Pugsy from not doing it instead. Then Ryder AND Pugsy allowed her to jump on the bed, so she grinned and quickly took off her shoes before she got up and started jumping on the bed.

"So! When! Are! We! Gonna! Watch! Dumbo?"

She asked, saying one word for each jump and waving her hands around.

Jo`s smile fell, her face contorting into confusion as Henry backed away from her kisses. Everyone liked her kisses! And she didn`t even get a hug! She inspected his face, it only now becoming apparent that he was mad. He was very mad. She had a slight hunch as to why, but she didn`t want to admit it to herself. She pulled her hands away from his, letting them fall slowly to her sides. She averted her gaze as he began to curse at her, suddenly feeling overwhelmed by Henry of all people. She could usually take being yelled at - but by Henry? Especially after she knew very well that she made a big mistake. A huge mistake. But, just think of all the possibilities if they had actually successfully stolen that van. The war would be over in an instant. She became very defensive suddenly, arching her eyebrows. "I didn`t destroy anything! It was the Inquisitor! And -- I -- !!" She struggled for words momentarily, a clear quiver in her voice. "There`s nothing wrong with me! I just want this war to end! Okay?! Of course I tried to steal the cybernetics; if Vulture Team doesn`t end this, no one else will! We both know that! Do you think Paladin or The Family is doing a better job at finishing off Conqueror Worm or the Inquisitor?! Do you, Henry?!" She shouted back at him, emotions clearly getting the better of her.

Because of what you started!" he yelled, before he turned his back on Jo, walking away, his hands on his head. He had a massive headache. Then the man suddenly turned to Jo, he wanted to leave right there, but he couldn't "Those drivers you killed-! They were with Paladin Jo! You've killed other officers! You're out of a job! Stuck here like the rest of us!" he yelled to her, he didn't care where he was, he said it right there and then.

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Jo`s facial expression softened, taking an involuntarily step back as her friend glared at her. She hadn`t realized the real damage she had done. She sicced the Family on them. It was her fault. Guilt twisted a huge knot in her stomach as she dwelled on these thoughts. But, if they had just gotten away with those cybernetics! She was suddenly feeling very conflicted for reasons unbeknownst to herself. "T - That`s bullshit! BULLSHIT, BULLSHIT, BULLSHIT!" She snapped back at him, fists clenched tightly. She didn`t know how to respond. This wasn`t what she wanted at all. She watched him begin to walk away, holding his head. Her eyebrows knitted in guilt as she felt her heart sink, cracking further with every step he took. Then he said something. Something that made her nauseated. She had slaughtered Paladin officers. With her own hands. She snapped one of their necks, shooting the heads off the other two. She was trembling now, her gaze averted to the ground as she couldn`t look at Henry any further.

Her eyes shot back up as he continued. No, no, no, no!! She wasn`t about to become just another criminal! She was going to complete her mission, get out of here and live happily ever after! Of course, after she stabbed her happily ever after through the heart with a pair of scissors, did it really matter? "THE FAMILY SHOULD BE HAPPY! I SAID IT BEFORE, AND I`LL SAY IT AGAIN! I`M DOING WHAT PALADIN CAN`T! I`M THIS STUPID WORLD`S ONLY HOPE!!" She shouted, her voice breaking even more whilst choking every word from her throat. Hot tears were beginning to form in her eyes - exactly what she feared would happen.

"WHAT THE HELL WOULD YOU EVEN KNOW?! YOU`RE AS MUCH A SLAVE TO THE FAMILY AS THE REST OF US! THIS IS ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT! SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED, HENRY!! AND PALADIN`S BEEN SHRUGGING IT OFF ALL ALONG!! WHAT ABOUT LIEUTENANT JACK HARRISON?! NO ONE TOLD ME ABOUT ANY OF THAT!! AND WHO THE FUCK LET CLAUS BEAUMONT INTO NO MAN'S LAND?! HE DIED HERE TOO, HENRY! I KILLED HIM! BECAUSE PALADIN LET THAT MANIAC OUT OF HIS FUCKING CELL!! YOU MORONS LET HIM BRING A FUCKING BLIMP INTO THE CITY! A FUCKING BLIMP!! AND I`M THE ONE DOING THEIR JOB WRONG?!" It wasn`t so much her being booted from Paladin that was really making her act like this, although she couldn`t convince herself that. A Paladin was a Champion, a hero. Apparently, that was a title she no longer qualified for. It hadn`t even occurred to her that Henry and her both had just announced to Carrion Land of her true alignment. She was too busy feeling this horrific rush of emotions that were triggered all at once; and since Henry was here, she wanted answers to her questions. "This is stupid!! Stupid, stupid, stupid!!" She didn`t want to be left here. She wanted to leave with Vulture Team once Jade was dead and go on with her life. This wasn`t what she planned at all.

Pugsy looked guilty when Ivy told him not to hit himself "Uh... sorry..." he responded to the girl, he had no idea what else to say really. And then Ivy seemed quite excited about the movie, and Ryder already had ideas of how to do it "Wow you guys are clever..." he commented, not being able to keep up with the two of them for a moment there.

Ivy nodded as Ryder told her they'd watch Dumbo as soon as they could, then stopped bouncing and sat on the bed again, smiling at Pugsy as she heard him call her and Ryder clever. She then saw him blushing and, as she slipped into old Ivy, panicked

"Why's your face red?! Is it bleeding?! Was it Gumby?!?"

She cried desperately, going over to Pugsy and inspecting his face. She was about to make a big medical diagnosis that would mean absolutely nothing, but then she heard Jo's screams...WOAH that was loud.

"Ry-Ry? Pugsy? What was that...?"

The scream had brought amnesiac Ivy back, and she was confused as well as worried...What could have happened to make someone yell that loud...Was she saying something about a blimp? BLIMP. She clenched her fists and bit her lip to keep from crying out. She was NOT going to panic this time...just a blimp...OH FUCK A BLIMP. But she remained relatively calm...at least on the outside.
