[She'd continuing to sit atop the core. Spinning. Forever spinning. It did not matter that is was a ridiculous inclination, and it certainly did not matter that she hadn't moved in what felt like years, she knew that any further action past this point was futile.

She would never get better. She would never be able to forget what she saw. Nothing would change her state of mind. Nothing no one said, nothing that anyone would even attempt to do-- it was all in vain.

They would all be dead soon.]

[There's a faint laugh echoing down the hall. If one were to look down the corridor, they'd see a familiar silhouette of a troll.]

Chell's right, you know. She's... so, so right.

[whistles_the_blues]

[Have Blues following along behind a bunch of people who happen to look like Mega Man to him. (Damn hallucinations.) ]

All of you. Time to get out. Now.

[Yeah it's short sweet and to the point. If people don't start listening he's going to start carrying people. This is what he gets for being late to the party.]

[cyan_maid]

[Jane turns to him quickly.] I'm TRYING to get them to leave! No one is listening to me!

[whistles_the_blues]

Which one's are refusing to go... Point them out to me.

[He can't tell the difference, you all look like Blue robots in diapers to him!]

[cyan_maid]

[Don't let her know that, she can't handle three crazy people.

She points to Chell first, then down the corridor to Vriska.] Those two!

[whistles_the_blues]

[He is doing very good for wanting to kill that blue robot, thank you very much.]

I'll take that one. [He nods his head off in Chell's direction. If he only knew the other one was Vriska.]

[cyan_maid]

Be careful!

[But he's already gone...]

[whistles_the_blues]

[He can't help it, it's just how he rolls.]

[cyan_maid]

Vriska!!

[She won't go to the corridor. She'll call for you from here! You'll come, won't you?]

Come on, that's enough! We're leaving - you'll see, everything is going to be okay!

[wagers]

It won't, Jane. It won't. [A sigh. A heavy sigh.] We're all going to die, I told you.

[cyan_maid]

And I told you that we WON'T. What will it take to convince you??

[rogueofheart]

Don't listen to her!

[Nepeta's attempting to shout over the sounds of chaos around them, and the many voices suddenly filling up the area.]

She's dangerous! Don't get too close to her!

[cyan_maid]

[Jane glances back to Nepeta for just a second.] How is she dangerous? She's delusional! She needs help, everyone does!!!

[wagers]

We're beyond help~

[cyan_maid]

[Oh, Vriska, every time you deny her help, you only make Jane more upset. She's actually trembling now.]

So help me, Vriska Serket, I will knock the sense back into your head if I have to...!!!

[fluthlu]

She's not going to listen to you, Jane.

[How rude of you ladies, starting the party without all Light Gals present and accounted for. Rose has been keeping close to the entrance, looking pretty ragged and watching the escalating conversation with one needle held close to her chest. There's a bit of dangerous ferocity in her gaze, locked right on Vriska.]

I would suggest stepping far, far away.

[rogueofheart]

[There's too many people here. She can't get them all away from Vriska! What can she even do? She's shifting her gaze between everyone, claws still extended.]

She's just going to hurt you while she's like this! It's like she's not even herself anymore!

[cyan_maid]

[A friend is a friend, no matter how much crazy their mind is buried under. At least, that's what Jane thinks.]

Then we've got to get the real Vriska back! Even if it's just for a moment!

[rogueofheart]

[Nepeta retracks her claws in one glove as she brings a hand to her face, rubbing it. Frustration. That's what she's feeling. And helplessness. She she drags her hand away from her face, her hair moves just enough to expose a thin green scar she'd been trying to hide. It's partly why she's been so adamant about keeping others from Vriska's range.]

But she has her powers, and if she-- I can't go up against those, but I can try.

[cyan_maid]

[Vriska has powers? Jane knew she could fly, but...]

What? Wait a second, when did Vriska get powers?

[JANE THE CLOCK IS TICKING YOU CAN'T WAIT A SECOND.]

[wagers]

Rose. Ever so helpful. Always so knowledgeable. [She's approaching, ever so slowly.]

Will they truly see the light you so graciously offer? [Aspect puns, please.]

[fluthlu]

[Rose uses Ultra Condescending Scowl! It's... of questionable effectiveness!]

You do flatter me, Serket.

[Watching her approach ever so warily, though, hands gripping her needles as tight as she can.]

[cyan_maid]

[Oh God, Rose! How many people had been here and never spoke up? Jane's head is spinning just thinking about it.]

I'm not just going to abandon her, or anyone! There's got to be a way to make her see reason!!

[fluthlu]

[Homestuck ladies are just mysterious like that shhhhh]

She's been corrupted, Jane. She's not going to see anything except what this ship tells her to see.

[cyan_maid]

Then we separate her from the ship!
