So, "rescuees".
We've known what we really look like for the last few months. So I ask, have any of you even wondered what our so-called "administrators" look like without the glamour?

Well, now that the monthly distractions are over, I have one thing to show you. Say hello to your favorite scientist.

[Ira smirks, holding up a picture to the camera of a certain drawing that his friend drew from his sister's memories.]


Some of you may remember another person sharing this sketch, and it's true - even the admins aren't what they seem.

Now Jason, I ask you directly: How do you call yourself human?

[Can't even say that it's the way he claims to be human, either.]

[[ooc: The visible sketch is a WIP because Jason literally crashed photoshop four times when I tried to load it. Will update it later when it lets me finish.]]

I think it may be a mask... but that might be wishful thinking.

[You know, he'd feel bad for the girl, but he knows what it's like to not be told the truth or fooled.]

[integrous]

.. Yeah, I don't think it's a mask.. [ Her face is still pale and she shakes a little like she's about to pass out, but she's still trying to talk, even if it's hard. ]

I.. I mean, he'd have no reason to wear a mask under the glamour..

[acceptedoblivion]

Right; there isn't. [There there...] You alright?

[integrous]

[ Asahi can't lie, so she can't really say she's fine about all of this, so.. ]

Uh.. not really. I mean, I'm not good with-- [ how does she put it.. ] .. this kind of stuff. Even if it's weird to say that in a place like this, probably. B-but don't think I'm a weirdo, got it?!

[acceptedoblivion]

Why not? We're all weird, here.

[He waves it off, but at least he's just waving it off with a side of teasing.]

[integrous]

Idiot!

[ Even though she's screaming, it's easy to tell just through how red her face is that it's just since she's really embarassed. ]

T-that's not how I meant it, I meant, um-- [ She shakes her head wildly, her already messy hair getting even worse. ] I meant most people here have special powers or come from weird worlds and all that, I'm not like that so I'm not used to this stuff..!

[acceptedoblivion]

[He chuckles]

Weird and special, huh... [A shrug, but he doesn't really mean any harm.] It's not like it makes much of a difference when the glamour goes off.

[integrous]

[ The glamour, huh? Yeah, that sure.. was.. a thing.. she looks a little more nervous again thinking about it, but she's trying so hard to bite it down. ]

.. That doesn't matter. Even if we're all like that, we're still-- .. well, us.

oh man i'm so sorry i didn't see this reply D:

[acceptedoblivion]

[Siigh.]

We are. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. [He smirks this time; maybe a little kinder. ...Big maybe.] Not my fault if Jason matches how he acts and we don't.
