[ THUD. ]

[ she miscounted the steps to the door. fff. ]

[ takes a step back and knocks proper. ]

[arealeyeopener]

[opening up]

Hello?

[420blazeit]

[ at least there's only one direction people can come from... forward. ] Sup. I'm here to check up on Silence and talk to Intensity.

[ she's covered from head to toe in scars and burns and because she stared directly into an explosion her eyes have become glassy and translucent. ]

[arealeyeopener]

Should you be up?

Come on in.

[gently takes her arm to guide her into the dorm]

[420blazeit]

I'm fine.

[ "fine". ]

T- Thanks. [ she appreciates the hell out of this. ] I'm D.Va, of HSS. Don't think we've met [ squint. ] because your voice doesn't sound familiar.

[arealeyeopener]

I'm Shine.

[going to help her to the couch]

You can sit.

[justpure]

[That. Was a thud. He'll open the first door...

Yes. First. FiN has a tiny hall that leads to the actual door now.]

Hello? Who's there?

[420blazeit]

D.Va, of HSS, come to check up on Silence and talk to Intensity.

[ she takes a single step forward and then stills, because ??? ]

[ UNCHARTED TERRITORY. ]

[justpure]

Ah, D.Va! I wasn't expecting you...

[He reaches for the lever... No, wait. That drops people into the snake pit. He doesn't want to do that.]

[Actually...] One moment please. [He just telekinetically opens the door.

Behold, Medusa with no mask. He looks normal... How does D.Va look?]

Please, come in.

[420blazeit]

Medusa! Hey. Long time no se- talk.

[ she's going to set her hand on the wall and move down the hall and toward his voice slowly. very very very slowly. ]

[ as soon as she's in the common room he might realize that she can't see him, her eyes are milky and translucent, and she's covered from head to toe in scars. ] Sorry I look like hell. [ eyyyyyy. ]

[justpure]

[Whelp, guess she still doesn't get to see what he looks like with no mask.]

Oh dear... Here, let me lead to to a chair.

[He's gently touching a hand to hers, so he may better lead her away.]

What happened to you?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Once she's properly inside]

Not wearing the armor?

[420blazeit]

No.

[ she's feeling weirdly claustrophobic in it and she's only 25% sure she knows why. ]

...though I regret not bringing a stick... or my seeing eye cat.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Grabs her wrist then]

I'm taking you to my lab. Keep up.

[420blazeit]

Yep.

[ she'll keep up no problem. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Into the lab they go then, Intensity leading her all the way to the floating chair before pressing her palm against it so she knows it's there]

I've only made one set of eyes before.

One had a camera with a touch sensor located near the temple. Could take pictures if you tapped it.

So I can do that for you. Or anything else you can think of.

[asonoficeandfire]

[after Shine lets her in and it's obvious she can't really see, he might be peering over, silent for a moment, and then]

... should you be outside your dorm right now?

[420blazeit]

[ she looks in his general direction. ]

It's fine. I can Henshin! if I really want to see. [ but she's not going to for reasons. ] I just needed a break from the armor, is all. [ gives him a smile. ] I forgot to bring Queen with me. Kinda wasn't thinking. Sorry.

[asonoficeandfire]

I know you can... but... that doesn't make it okay.

Ah... your cat, right?

[420blazeit]

...

I can only stand to do it for a little while at a time right now. I'm going to get some new eyes, so I'll be fine soon enough. I didn't want to bother SensitIV until they'd calmed down from the shit show they faced. And I wanted to talk to Intensity first.

[ nods. ] Yeah.

[asonoficeandfire]

New... eyes?

[resonantblue]

[she sure heard her walk into the door; she has the sunglasses she gave her atop her head, too]

Dva... you ran into the door, didn't you.

[420blazeit]

I walked into it. [ tyvm. ]

I know better than to run around with a couple of busted eyes. [ give her some credit! ]

[resonantblue]

This is the first time someone has interpreted me literally when that is typically my—wait, your eyes are still damaged?

[420blazeit]

...yeah. [ fingerguns in... some direction. hopefully the right one. ] Not yet. I wanted to talk to Intensity after I was done checking up on you. So feeling any better? Still got the hater blockers, I hope.
