Shifting Waters

[Lubbock]

Lubbock shifted his goggles upon his viridian mop and casually leaned his back against the sturdy steed he arrived on. "Well, yeah, I was in a big group... as it is, the details are something I'd rather keep classified at the moment." He informed coldly, although reluctantly. "And you don't even need to ask if I would mind having you along. In fact, I was planning on askin' if you'd like to tag along!" The assassin explained, glancing excitedly to Teal with his single, visible eye.

Lubbock listened closely to Xavier's explanation of his uncanny ability to contact the dead... If only we had someone like that back in the Revolutionary Army, Lubbock moped, reminiscing over the deaths of numerous friends. Teal's request caught the assassin's attention; quite a noble ask, certainly for personal gain, but no harm intended.

The assassin quirked an eyebrow at Xavier's offer of his number, and soon after contacting him at any point as required. Slipping out his own verdant device, he traversed to the Dataverse and opened the mailing system, turning the screen on the cat boy. "There's a mailing system on the Dataverse." He explained, before browsing his phone. Although he was still establishing his skills with the fresh technology, he was sure he understood what a 'phone number' was, and couldn't seem to find it. "Not to mention it doesn't look like these 'phone numbers' follow conventional rules... you might need to do a bit of nitpicking to figure it out." He clarified, screwing his face up at the complex tech in his palm.

Lubbock listened to Xavier's decision on where he planned to go. "Alright, that's cool, I won't hold ya back." He allowed the cat boy his freedom. "I'll keep in contact though, that's a promise." After his small spiel, he made sure I take note of the Kunoichi's communication device; primitive and mysterious as it was, it intrigued the assassin nonetheless. From what Lubbock gathered, Teal was tagging along with him.

'Lettuce Head' chuckled as Teal dubbed him said nickname. "You should be able to check those out on the Dataverse. I'll let you copy the style of my device if you'd like." The forest-y assassin offered kindly, waving his phone a moment before returning it to its hidey hole. Lubbock scratched his head nervously at Teal's mention of his 'assassin buddies'. "Well... you see... none of my cohorts arrived with me... I'm just about alone..." The assassin remembered the slaughter sparked between his small group of friends and Esdeath. "But a sadistic General from our world was brought along... she's been here longer than me, I can tell. She's too powerful to be a new Prime." Lubbock elaborated, scratching his chin.

Teal's pondering over her lack of friends from her world enticed a sympathetic frown from Lubbock. "Well that doesn't matter anymore." He assured her, a grin easing his mouth apart. "Xavier and I are your friends." He mentioned with a thumbs up. Abruptly, a shock soared through the assassin's legs and he struggled to keep himself from collapsing. "What the-" A curse started to form on his tongue, but the image of a hulking machine striding towards them halted his speech.

Grimacing, Lubbock slipped in front of Teal and Xavier and slung his wires outwards onto the snow white earth, yanking on them menacingly in front of the bulky machine. "Guys... we may be in for a fight." Lubbock noted, frowning at the new arrival.

Xavier, you may now leave. Hana, you can post normally next.
