SECRET GROUP MEETING at the Cafe | Open to Everyone

Just as the fight had ended with the wolves escaping; the police had shown up and taken the statements of those who were outside and saw what had happened. While the police were doing their work; Terezi had an idea of her own. This wasn't a normal situation and she didn't feel like leaving it up to the police this time. There was something deeper going on and something strange and she was going to stick her nose right into it. But first, she needed to gather everyone who fought or were around to see what the heck was going on.

Thanks to the help of a nice officer, she was able to get her heels back. She didn't wear them, they would only hurt more after she had been running around on the hard pavement. From strangers she had just met at the speed dating to her two friends; she told everyone to go back into the cafe after the police left. There was a secret group meeting about to unfold, she stated in a playfully serious tone.

Terezi entered the cafe and stood behind the register counter to overlook the tables in front of her. Her nose was picking up on the strong scent of vanilla, marshmallows, cherries and other various red fruit. It was so much to take it; she shook her head but that did nothing but a minor headache. "Damn it." She uttered.

She sniffed the air, each person had a particular scent to them. It was hard to tell who was who but once there were no more new smells she decided court was now in session. Raising her cane in the air she banged it three times on the counter. She would hear from Nepeta later on her reckless tactic for attention. "Everyone listen up! First meeting of the Super Mighty Rumpus Guild will now commence. I am now your official leader, prosecutor and judge. If you forgot my name or we haven't met I'm Terezi. I'm perfectly qualified for this position because let's be real: most of you weenies were probably going to run after the cops left. Too bad!" She cackled, "We're going to discuss what the Hell happened out there. Why were wolves in broad city daylight? It makes no sense, sure we're destroying their ecosystem but surely they wouldn't be prepared for a mutiny against humanity like this?!"

His hand manages to cover the wound well enough as to keep the blood from flowing out like the red rivers of hell. But now Equius was really getting into a panic, if there was something he hated it was lazy people, then people who mistreat animals and in third place there was people who stared intensively at him for any reason even if that reason was a good one.

Body shaking a bit as sweat was starting to prick out from his skin, even in the dimly lighted bathroom it was obvious his dark skin was becoming brighter, his view was becoming more fuzzy thanks to heightened heart beat . Lucky for him the bump from Feferi's hips managed to break him out of the lock down state he was slipping into (a pretty dangerous state to be in when adrenaline and harsh feeling are filling the ambient) and so he took a deep breath in.

"Yes, there is a reason. And if you would stop your astonishing RUDE behavior I would be able to explain " He took a step forward without realizing the threatening stance he had put himself into, a very poorly grounded and likely to fail stance before the three others that could most likely put him down with little effort. Mostly because if fighting came to the table Equius would turn his face from it, sure he would offer potato salad but that's as far as pleasantries would go.

He was getting annoyed by his blood, bothered even. His left-hand reaches for his right arm and unrolls the sleeve of his shirt before pulling and ripping it apart from the rest of the cloth, then he rolls the sleeve along its length before wrapping it tight around his forehead closing the wound temporarily, though soon enough it too would find itself soaked in blood.

Not even waiting for her reply or even the other girls reactions he takes another step towards Nepeta ready for whatever consequences his actions have, he is just too shaken by the series of events that brought them to this point. Starting with the despicable rules of the dreams and ending with the slam to his face brought by Feferi. His hands raise and full palms face each other before slamming together in a definitive clap to clear any other thought from his or Nepetas mind "We knew each other, we were friends. In the moon named derse that I thought was but a dream... We were friends" he repeats feeling something wet in the corners of his eyes, it wasn't sweat this time around.

Feferi's eyes went huge, her mouth dropping open in an o as she stared at Equius. Derse. Derse. She glanced furtively at Nepeta but some instinct pulled her attention to the stranger who appeared to be having a quiet breakdown or a headache, her face screwed up in pain.

Instantly on alert, Fef flowed around Equius and Nepeta. She caught hold of Aradia's steadying hand and pulled her toward a corner away from the meeting between apparent friends.

"Glub you don't look like you feel very whale," Fef murmured, gently putting a hand on Aradia's forehead to feel her temperature. "If it's a headache..."

She pulled back a bit and shoved her hand down the front of her pink dress, tongue sticking out of the corner of her mouth as she squinted, concentrating on sorting through the various items she had stashed there. They had gotten a little more jumbled and moved around during the fight but at last she pulled out a small metal cylinder triumphantly and unscrewed the lid, pouring a couple of (warm) white pills into her hand and offering them to Aradia. "Just acetominophen!" she said quietly. "Might help with your hull headache fin?"

Feferi kept one eye on Aradia while also watching what would come of Equius' declaration to Nepeta. She knew as well as Equius that Nepeta knew about the dream moon, knew that people from there walked on the green earth. Her pink eyes darted quick as minnows from the hulking, bloody, sweat-drenched figure to the diminutive barrista with the forceful temperament.

With every step he took closer, the tighter Nepeta’s fists balled up, and the more visibly agitated she became, due to her interpreting his own stance as aggressiv. God this guy is SO fucking WEIRD. She stared at him defiantly, wholly ready to fight someone who was a solid foot and a half taller than herself.

But he never even tried it, instead he clapped his hands and looked at her sternly, and started talking about… a dream..? Nep glanced over at Feferi, who she had met in similar circumstances, and back to him, her confusion evident on her face as she starts thinking about the implications of his words.

She looked between the two of them again, and bit down on her lip to try and focus on what was happening. If one looked closely they might even be able to see the wheels in her head grinding and clicking as they processed it. Another, more confused, look on her face as her eyes again flicked over to Feferi, and back to him. He seemed to be crying? It was then that realization struck her square between the eyes. Her eyes went wide and her face dropped in a look that was equal parts horror, embarrassment, surprise, and confusion, all mixed up and layered on top of eachother. She didn’t know what to say, so she didn’t say anything.

Instead she just took a step forward to close the gap between them. Almost tentatively, she wrapped her arms around him, in what was surely the most awkward and emotionally charged hug ever delivered.

Aradia took the medicine from Feferi. Normally she would think twice about taking medicine from people she had just met, but there was something about the girl that seemed unable to do harm. Like she was trying to care for everyone in the way that they needed. In any case, it would distract her for the time being. With practiced ease, she swallowed the pills and hoped for the best.

Clearly she had stumbled into something that she didn't know the details of. And judging by the conversation, and the context of the meeting, there was something bigger going on. They seemed to be saying that they met in a dream, but that seemed like something straight out of a bad television romantic comedy for it to be real. Even given the events of the night, he surely couldn't think that line could work to pacify....what was her name again....Nepeta, that's right, the one who was interested in larping. But for all intents and purpose, it seemed to have worked, as she was now hugging him, whereas moments before she was ready to tear his throat out with her teeth. Aradia just stood there, in dumbfound surprise, not really knowing what to make of this twist in the story. Either way, she wasn't going to interrupt, hoping to make some sense out of this paradox.

O happy day , O happy day! Equius was about to break down, to lose Nepeta (To lose her once again and even more) Would have broken him, to lose his only friend (Like literally only friend , no one else seemed to like him and he was dumbfounded as to why) would have probably sent him into a depression pit so big that he might have had even moved back to his parents place.

But to see her face break in the realization of the truth about their relationship, though Equius knew further apawlogies were in order. brought such joy into his heart; To feel her arms against his considerably moist body made his growing headache and rage fit disappear. He could not return such heartfelt hug with just the length of his body, so heart filled arms could only be reciprocated in one way and one way only.

Equius leans in and slides his own treetrunks under Nepetas own and lifts her up while a smile joins the tears on his face, being mindful of his surroundings he starts spinning and gaining velocity (Headache threatening to return) as he laughs something like a starting up engine "You remember! You do remember!" he smiles before bring his lips against her cheek while her feet are still off the floor. Had he knocked one of the other two out wouldn't have mattered in such glorious moment, to have one friend was more precious than all the horses in the field.

Feferi watched with sympathetic tears in her eyes as the beautiful moment unfolded... and then transformed into a cyclone of danger. She muffled her surprised glub and pulled Aradia into the far corner, sliding in front of the other and holding up her arms defensively in case the oblivious spinning boots came any closer.

She eyed the door, but there were too many whirling feet and other obstacles between her and escape and she didn't want to abandon the dazed-looking Aradia to her fate.

Feferi leaned back a little. "I fin his superpower is dolphinately that strength. I'm worried they're going to forget they're not abalone and whale be lobstertrapped here until one of them finally loses their lunch from all the centrifuge spinning," she murmured in an undertone to Aradia though Fef kept her eyes on the danger boots.

She narrowed her eyes pensively and began to concentrate on the wetly glistening forehead when it rotated past, attempting to harness the gross sweat water to perhaps apply the brakes on the spinning murdertops of friendship and doom.

Nep screamed giddily as he lifted and spun her in such an unexpected fashion. “Yes! I do reempurr you, you big tall dumby, now put me down!” She said between her laughter. She hadn’t been sure what to expect when she hugged him, but she was glad she was met with such elation. She was still not entirely sure what any of this meant. What it meant to have met in the dreams before meeting in the real world, and the block that seemed to occur between there and the waking world.

When he finally stopped their spinning Nepeta leaned against him, in a similar fashion that an overly affectionate cat might rub against someone’s legs for more attention. She made eye contact with Aradia and then Feferi, suddenly aware once more that her and equius were not entirely alone in their moment of joyous recognition. The awkward feeling was slowly setting in making her shift somewhat uneasily, since she hardly knew Fef, and knew Aradia even less.

This was clearly a touching reunion for most parties invovled. At least Feferi was here as well, granted the girl was still very much a stranger. Still, she felt inclined to respond to Feferi's observations. "it does seem likely that this will continue for a while. however i am hesitent on the entirety of superpowers, despite my tendancy toward disbelief."

Seeing the tension building as the pair remebered that Aradia and Feferi were still present, she decided to take the initiative. Whispering to Feferi, she suggested "Perhaps it is for the best that we retreat for the time being. It seems these two would prefer a reunion without prying eyes." She crept towards the door, wondering if Feferi would follow her lead. While she still had a dull ringing in her ears, the commotion back in the shop seemed to mostly dissolve into a dull roar.
