Dark gets out of the van’s front, sighing.Still holding his new friend, Arentine walks over to the van to check on Dark.
"Find anything?"
“Nothing…”

"Find anything?"
"Hm."Dark gets out of the van’s front, sighing.
“Nothing…”
"(...they seem alright, just very mistrustful of us at the moment.)""Hm."
He glances back to Servi and the others, talking quieter to just Dark.
"What do you think of the newcomers?"
He's still just holding Violet in a big bear hug
"This is Violet.""...anywho."
Vinessa just looks at Arentine.
"What's with you holding the armadillo, Arentine?"
Vinessa just looks blankly at Violet and Arentine."This is Violet."
"Say hi Violet!"
He sounds super gleeful as he extends Violet out to face Vinessa, the thing easily a foot longer than she is tall.
It tilts its head, then makes a weird sort of growl/bark/hiss sound at Vinessa.Vinessa just looks blankly at Violet and Arentine.
"..."
"...what-"
Vinessa stops herself promptly though, remembering that she is, in fact, filling in for Dark as she clears her throat.
"..."
"Um. Hi...?"
Vinessa just backs off a bit, before shaking her head a bit to focus, looking back at Arentine.It tilts its head, then makes a weird sort of growl/bark/hiss sound at Vinessa.
"Oh don't say that! Have you no manners?"It tilts its head, then makes a weird sort of growl/bark/hiss sound at Vinessa.
Arentine nods before walking off with Violet to to stand by the crates.Vinessa just backs off a bit, before shaking her head a bit to focus, looking back at Arentine.
"...Look. You keep an eye on the crates, meanwhile..."
Vinessa looks back at Mela, and then at the newcomers.
"...I'm going to figure out who's doing what."
*Mela can't stop herself from snickering. The contrasting nature of this incredibly tall armored person holding a mutant armadillo like a cat is quite funny to her.*"Oh don't say that! Have you no manners?"
He then holds Violet under one arm, like a piece of luggage.
Arentine nods before walking off with Violet to to stand by the crates.
*Mela stays by the van, continuing to search it in a (likely) vain attempt to find an anti-venom, even doubling back to compartments she knows she's checked, while occasionally glancing over at Dark to see if he's alright.*Vinessa just backs off a bit, before shaking her head a bit to focus, looking back at Arentine.

Vinessa looks back at Mela, and then at the newcomers.
"...I'm going to figure out who's doing what."
Vinessa heads off to head over to Nick, Thompson, Jack, and Ertwin.
Vinessa stops for a moment to glance in her direction.*Mela stays by the van, continuing to search it in a (likely) vain attempt to find an anti-venom, even doubling back to compartments she knows she's checked, while occasionally glancing over at Dark to see if he's alright.*
*Mela sighs and gives up her search, stepping out of the van.*Vinessa stops for a moment to glance in her direction.
“…Mela, didn’t you and Dark not find anything there?”
“Uh…”*Mela sighs and gives up her search, stepping out of the van.*
"Unfortunately. Wanted to look back through to see if I could find anything, even though I knew I wouldn't. My bad?"
Dark sighs and nods, putting his hat back on from his storage portal.*Now without anything to do, Mela goes to sit down with Dark.*
"Venom sucks, doesn't it? Feeling like your lifeforce is getting sapped away by just existing is unpleasant, at least in my opinion."
"Huh, you have inherent regeneration? How? There aren't many things from my world that can just regenerate like that. I certainly can't, or else a sixth of me wouldn't be metal. I'm guessing regeneration is common where you're from?"Dark sighs and nods, putting his hat back on from his storage portal.
“…kind of, yeah.”
“Not all familiar with it directly, since um. Usually I’d be able to regenerate well enough to eliminate it, but…well, ever since being taken away from my home world, seems my shifting abilities are…significantly diminished.”
“Haven’t fought a lot of people who use poisons, and XFOS weapon users…hm. Not sure those count as venoms…”
"Shifters are kind of all over the place back on Arth. Sort of a natural consequence of being able to shapeshift, with magic-empowered catalysing of your entire metabolism to accelerate mitosis and all that science stuff.""Huh, you have inherent regeneration? How? There aren't many things from my world that can just regenerate like that. I certainly can't, or else a sixth of me wouldn't be metal. I'm guessing regeneration is common where you're from?"
"Oh, and you said something about XFOS? Another thing from your world?"
Naturally."Would I have time to retrieve my servant?"
[10] Roman avoids it and tries to grab Brambol's arms. [1](14) Somehow he half-expected that but isn't strong or fast enough to avoid being grabbed.
He flails wildly with his claws (5).
"..."Servi is zonked out.
Lania is on guard. Tenuma has vanished.
Lania gives a blank stare."..."
Vinessa heads over to Lania, Servi, and Ja'ryelth, mostly looking at Lania.
"..."
"We cool now?"
