"Oh yeah! I'm peachy!" Dallas hollered, dripping with bitter sarcasm. "I'm just chilling out upside-down in a tree while a freaky mist covers the island! Don't mind me!"

"Don't worry! I'll get you down!" She leaps up onto the windowsill and crouches down, getting ready to pounce up there where she saw him crash.
Then the mist starts to cover the church.

The woman jumped up and seemed to hover across the floor before the mist started to pour in. Well this is happening whether I want it to or not... she thought as she followed Selena out the window. In the ambient lighting, it was easier to see that the woman was wearing jeans, a black jacket, teal sneakers, and want looked to be a grey shirt with an odd symbol that looked like a stylized dragon's skull or a ghost.

"Rgh... It's fine, I got it..." Dallas grumbled as he awkwardly wrenched himself free and prepared to glide down to the ground. Just as he leaped off the branch, the mist hit, prompting a startled squawk and flail out of the albatross that sent him plummeting ungracefully.

Selena leaps into the air, catching him easily and landing on her feet, with him gently cradled to her chest. "Thank goodness... I made it..." She turns her gaze upwards and stands bolt upright, eyes wide in shock. "...wha..."

Forsaken took a breath as a blood colored orb was ripped from her frame as her form was engulfed in the mist. Said orb was heading straight for Selena as another orb was being guided to Forsaken.

"Thank you... Now put me down..." Dallas sighed, flopping over wearily. "Flyin' halfway across the island just to get wrapped up in more weird plot s***. Why do I do this to myself?"

She gently places him down as a white orb of light escapes her chest, only to be replaced by the blood red one heading her way. She blinks, eyes wide in shock as immeasurable numbers of strings form in her vision, every one looking similar in size and shape yet instantly meaning something different to her at a glance. She looks down, seeing a string between her and Dallas, her body stiffening as she sees just what her relationship is with him. She struggles to form words, tears filling her vision as she takes a step back, then turns and runs to the lady behind her, embracing her tightly and silently sobbing into her shoulder.

Forsaken froze as she was hugged. "Sorry that you have my fate..." she offered as she patted the cat girl's back. "Want me to go yell at that gull for you?"

Dallas sighed and shook himself off, his ruffled feathers quickly smoothing out. Once he had composed himself, he took a good look around. The mist had covered the area entirely, he could at least figure that out... and yet he seemed completely unaffected. He wasn't sure how to respond to that. He wanted to be relieved that he hadn't fallen victim to whatever weird phenomenon the island had vomited up this time, but he just felt frustrated that his curse had once again left him out of the loop. Typical.
Then he turned around and tilted his head at Selena. "What? What happened?"

Selena wails pitifully in response. "I'm so sorry! I just wanted to be friends!"

"Selena has my ability.... She thought you two were friends... sadly I believe you don't see this relationship as such," Forsaken offered. "I used to be able to see the bonds between people."

"...What?" Dallas raised a brow, genuinely confused as to what led Selena to believe they were friends. She had just met the girl and was trying to give her some direction that was it. How was that in any way the basis for a friendship?
Still... do be fair... he hadn't meant to hurt her feelings.
"S***..."
The albatross scowled at the ground and rubbed his head, his tone low but as genuine as he could manage. "Look... I'm a traveler. It's my job to help folks find their way. That's it. I'm no one's friend. I'm just an a**hole trying to atone for his own mistakes. If you got the wrong impression from that, sorry, but I can't afford to make attachments. Not like this."

"...n-not like this?" She sniffles, looking at the albatross with watery eyes. "...w-what about... in the future? Maybe?" The feline bows her head, whimpering softly like a kicked puppy. "I just... don't want to be alone..."

Forsaken softly sighed. "Sometimes the simplest act of kindness is to offer a willing hand or wing to another. Being a friendly being is a great way," she offered. "I know I did that for a few friends I keep. They were like family to me."
