[so incredibly sorry for taking so long to get to this RP.
ACK stupid finals are running me ragged; do you think someone could give me a concise recap to post to the front? That would be so amazingly awesome, especially since I only have a vague idea of what's going on in the RP right now... XD I've skimmed through stuff but I've hardly had time to do anything on CS (and that really upsets me urrrrg)]

Gene was convulsing with sobs of grief. He was so absorbed in his misery that he didn't even feel the presence behind him until the man had approached them and took Rose from him. At first, the young intern blinked, not quite comprehending what was happening. The gears in his brain turned slowly as he worked through all the different explanations for the appearance of this man. And then an uncontrollable fury filled the boy's heart and pumped his veins full of passion - he stood up abruptly and whirled on the man, prepared to shout wild curses at him and tear Rose away from the intruder should it come to that. But Gene froze before he could realize any of his violent fantasies. It hit him. This man was Rose's father. He'd seen this man once before, back at the lab...only a brief glimpse, somewhere. Not only that, but Gene could detect a bit of resemblance in their features. The intern's rage subsided, like a tidal wave disrupted by a towering jagged cliff. The eyes. The eyes were seamlessly identical.
"You're--" Gene halted when he heard how pathetically hoarse and weak his own voice sounded, and suddenly he felt very small compared to this powerful being before him. Gene Niles...who was he? Some pale little science intern who'd been of absolutely no use to anyone. He hadn't been able to save Rose, or stop Nichole from going insane, or even put much of a dent in that wicked Dr. Hamilton's schemes. He had no right to be holding Rose in his arms in the first place. "I..." he faltered, then shied away from the father and his child, burning with shame. He didn't want to be in this man's presence. To think that I...that Rose...that I wanted to...to fall in love... he buried his face in his palms. I was an idiot...

Everywhere. It hurts everywhere, Midge wanted to reply, but she knew that wasn't going to be of much use. "Oh, th-thank you so much! The pain is...strongest in the...the upper part of my wing..." she answered, wincing as she tried to readjust the feathered appendage. "And I was flying when suddenly I hit...I hit this thing," she explained vaguely, tapping Nichole's car to indicate that this was indeed what she had slammed into.

[ It's fine Teekl, I know how busy school gets :3
As for the recap, I'm not entirely sure myself. I don't think a lot has been going on; but supergirl and I have decided Iris is going to get captured by Hamilton as well, just so Neron can have someone to RP with who can understand him. Other than that, I'm afraid you'll have to ask someone else. So sorry! ]

[Unfortunately, I will not be of much help either. I haven't posted since your last entry, and honestly haven't been keeping up on all the story lines. Good luck with your finals Mine are coming up in January]

Nichole blushed as she pulled a small first aid kit from the inside of her lab coat. "Oh yes, that's right," she said, "I hit you with my car. I am very sorry about that by the way. And don't worry about your wing, I am sure I can help you." Nichole smiled. At least I hope I can. The scientist wouldn't admit it, but she did not know very much about bird anatomy in general, especially not a bird-girl hybrid.

Paul looked from his daughter, to the young man standing a ways off. He wasn't exactly sure what to feel. Knitting his brow, the siren came up with a plan. Now the only task is to get this young man to understand. Paul cradled the girl in his arms and walked over to the boy. Putting his large hand on his shoulder, Paul got his attention. The siren then pointed to the large door he had used to enter this strange room. Paul however, could see from his expression, that the young man did not understand what he wanted. Sighing annoyed, the man adjusted Rose so that she was only being supported with one of his arms, with the other, he pushed the boy out the door, and back outside to the front of the house. Paul rolled his eyes at the display of the young man. I know you care for this girl; you shall help me save her then. Giving him one last push, Paul pointed this time at the green Jeep. The siren peeked inside the car, and nodded when he saw that the key was still inside.

Aurora's eyes widened as Celine was explaining what they would be attempting to do. She had certainly heard of a "wish keeper" berfore, they were subject of many of the pod elder's stories. And from what she heard, the wishes could go terribly wrong. But despite the danger, Aurora had already firmly decided that she would do whatever it took to save Neron. She couldn't just very well shy away because she was scared! Tears were still leaking out of her eyes, dissolving into the ocean, but a plan of action- even one as terrifying as asking a sea-serpent for its wish-granting scales that may or may not giver her legs- gave her more strength of resolve than it did fear. Especially since it would ultimately mean she would get Neron back. The siren closed her eyes, savoring the sound of his name, and letting herself feel the full force of her breaking heart before steeling her resolve for the task ahead of them. She could have no doubts when she confronted the serpent and made her wish... Aurora took a deep breath of the refreshingly cold water around her, before opening her eyes again.
"Where do we find the wish keeper?"

Hamilton was ready. There was a net ready to drop from the boat at the fist sight of Hamilton's signal, and the scientist himself had his tranquilizers at the ready. He pulled his face-mask down, took a few breaths of the air being pumped in, and then dove into the frigid arctic water. The chill that greeted him was a shock, his insulated suit just barely keeping the temperatures from being deadly. Hamilton checked to make sure he had a tranquilizer ready, and then started swimming towards the spot the locator had indicated. This would be much more difficult than capturing the beast he now kept on the boat, and the thought brought a cold smile to the scientist's lips. Yes, it should be vastly more fun. It wasn't long before he rounded the side of the immense boat, and saw another creature floating just below it. His smile wavered. This was not the one he was looking for...but she would do none the less. Hamilton readied his tranquilizer gun and slowly approached from behind.

Nissa listened with curiosity, astonished the humans would live in such an environment. Was nothing done to change it? Their young must die often if humans enjoyed killing and the air was so polluted. If one went close enough to shore, the air turned positively revolting.
Softly, Nissa murmured, "It is not surprising, then, that those of your number seek to take what is of the ocean back to your world. It is a common desire to replace a thing of little value with that of beauty."

Iris swirled her serpentine tail through the frigid water, easily keeping herself afloat. Men were shouting at each other on the ship's deck, appearing to be getting ready for something. What on Earth for? No storm was approaching, it was midday, and their appeared to be nothing amiss. She let out a quiet sigh. Humans were simply insane.
Turning herself around in the water, Iris prepared to swim away when something caught her attention. A humanoid figure, dressed in some sort of fancy get up was approaching her slowly, some sort of projectile pointed in her direction. While Iris couldn't tell what he had on, or what the weapon did, she wasn't an idiot to know the human didn't intend to attack her. Eyes narrowing, Iris debated whether to attack back with her Atlantian sword.

The creature turned around, and Hamilton's smile grew. His eyes greedily took in what he could make out of the creature's anatomy, and from what he could see, she would be just as interesting a study as his original target. His finger itched to pull the trigger, but he wanted to get a closer look at the female in action before knocking her out. And so, the scientist swam closer, his speed unaffected by the female's new awareness of his presence. She certainly was a pretty specimen- a black serpentine tail held her afloat, and, like the male, she had a figure and physical make up that he had never seen before. Questions and hypotheses were running through his mind, and he briefly wondered if she too, had a language similar to the male's in the tank.

Iris raised an eyebrow. The human certainly didn't seem deterred by the fact she had noticed his approach, and merely kept at the same pace. It seemed to be observing her, for lack of a better term. She let the figure come a bit closer before raising Náriël warningly. The device in the humans hands could be dangerous.
Still, her green eyes searched the 'face' of the thing the human was in, curious despite her caution. It was a strange thing, to say the least. The humans facial features were visable through the front of it, dark hair and deep blue eyes. She tilted her head. "Who are you?" Perhaps it wouldn't understand, but it was worth a try.

A series of unknown sounds and syllables reached Hamilton's ears, and the scientist reasoned that she must , indeed, share a rudimentary language with the creatures of the deep. Her words seemed silky and smooth, almost like warm, poisonous honey. What an interesting quality to a voice. Almost like his own- although the danger of his words was much better hidden, at least, so he told himself. She had raised a blade, seemingly defensively, but from the tilt of her head while she talked, Hamilton could tell that at the moment, she was more curious or confused than defensive and dangerous. But that could change at any moment. A wild animal backed into a corner was very dangerous, which Hamilton knew first hand. It seemed to the scientists that if it came down to it, she would fight, rather than flee- but he was frustratingly unsure. And so, before she would have to make the decision, Hamilton raised the gun higher, and pulled the trigger, sending a flying projectile filled with a tranquilizer in her direction. It was a less concentrated version than he had given the creature he now held captive, since she was much smaller than him- although, it was not less concentrated by much. Hamilton had estimated that there was still enough to knock out a small pony. As he pulled the trigger, Hamilton smiled coldly, his blue eyes glittering with an excitement that was void of any warm emotion. Oh, today had been a good day.

Indeed, the human seemed unable to understand her, offering no verbal response. That was unsurprising, given those she lured off ships never understood her language either - they followed the tone of her words, words that promised wonders beyond their imagination. Words than inevitably led them to their doom.
Iris turned her head to glance at the ship one last time. The activity had not ceased; perhaps she would follow it later and watch it a bit more. For now, she might as well find amusements elsewhere. The human could not speak with her; thus this was rather pointless. A sudden movement from him caught her attention and she turned, surprised to see him brandishing the weapon. Something flew towards her and pricked her arm, sending some sort of fluid in to it. Immediately feeling drowsy, she realized the human must have put something in the gun to incapacitate her in some way.
Her eyes flashed with anger, and Iris lashed out with Náriël, even as she felt herself slowing. The blade neatly sliced through some sort of tube attached to what looked like a cylinder, before slipping from her grasp to disappear into the depths below. Iris's eyes began to droop as she felt whatever he had shot her with begin to take effect, and she whipped her tail at him once before succumbing to darkness.
