All fell silent once more. The gesturing of shadows, the whispers, not even they wanted to accompany Reg. He was all alone. No one was here. No one was ever here. The moon was not a place for community; it was a rock floating in the void of space, revolving around the Earth but never coming close enough. So too were its inhabitants doomed to spectate — naught could survive here but isolation. Despite the lack of life, something moved. Nothing alive — it was the ground itself. Particles of dust crawled up Reg’s body, slowly at first, growing bolder as they went. They threatened to consume him in an everlasting embrace, to pull him downward. There he would become one with the moon, in its beauty and its solitude.

Rei tilted his head at Heatmans response. There was that lack of curiosity again. He seemed painfully content with acceptings things as they were, or perhaps Navis never concerned themselves with things like desires at all. "So we have fundamentally different approaches to such matters", he sighed, "I find it quite foolish to believe your current strength will always be enough. That isn't how you get around in this world, you know" He raised his hand to rest his head against it. He wasn't very interested in teaming up with this one for any longer than necessary, Heatmans theory starting to feel more and more plausible just by how disagreeable he was. But who knows when this mess would be corrected... he still had to get to the root of this somehow. So far, his best guess was that it'd be related to that Chatroom somehow. "Oh, worry not, it's just zennies you're after today", Rei explained. His eyes widened with a sudden realization - this would be an excellent chance to test if Heatman knew of the chatroom well. "I have no access to Dark Chips from around here regardless. Only my provider from another instance can aquire them for me - that's what makes them worth working for" +++ "My operators target is my target", Celestra agreed. She kept waiting for further instructions. When nothing happened, and instead Lan told her to keep at it, she was glad to oblige. She fought better alone anyways, now too confident the fight would be easier like this. In the confusion of the moment, she had lost her focus, and Larkmans attack was noticed at the last second. With a jump back, she managed to avoid most of the attack, but not without some damage. Celestra quickly realized those wings would be an issue. Larkman was fast, and he had more range. Him being airborne ruled out most of her strategies, unless she got him down somehow... so she opted for the meteor attack. Summoned by her howl, the ceiling opened to rain meteors upon her foe. Would Larkman just dodge that as well?
