Introduction…
I have been informed that this website is a brilliant way to collect information so I won’t need to rely on certain… circumstances and creatures to find what I need in order to plan. I’m sorry to say that you won’t be receiving much information from me. After all, a Spider mustn’t reveal her plans, should she? If you’re keen on knowing, however, for your convenience I use she/her or they/them pronouns.
WITCH‼️‼️ 🗣🗣🗣
Witch? Out of any insult or criticism you come up with ‘witch’? I dare say it is quite pathetic, less you happen to be commenting on my power, which then could be received as a compliment. Regardless, I have more important matters to attend to rather than wast my time on sad beings such as yourself.

Nikola! Been a while, has it? Would you like to come help with the ritual?
Well, but the looks of it, the entity is currently distracted. I believe now would be our best chance to commence the ritual. Is everyone ready?

I already have a web set up and most of the work done. All I need you five to do is stand in your designated positions and wait for instructions.
Right well, I think im in position?
Perfect.
“ and where should I be, Miss Cane ? “
Just over there would be fine, Michael.
"Apologies for the late response. I'm ready as well."
-E. Bouchard
Perfect. Once Nikola and Simon arrive, we shall begin.

(Eilir allowed the static the surround them, almost overwhelming them. It numbed the pain ever so slightly. They couldn’t See. A fog reminiscent of static filled their mind. They were vaguely aware of the glitching monstrosity they had become, and a faint voice in the back of their mind feared that they may be too far gone and that because of this, they had suffered a great loss. Someone… close, important to them. Why can’t they remember?)
<< Cypher had been hit by that blasted computer whilst trying to fight for Eilir. His blades had done nothing, and his prized weapons had fallen into the Void. He laid there, making feeble attempt to move his battered, bloodied and bruised body every now and then. Every time he failed. He prayed Eilir would make it out of there alright. He wasn’t sure how he could be of much help. Dizziness hit him every time he got even close to sitting up again. >>
(Though the static was virtually overwhelming them, it hadn’t fully claimed them. A small part of them held on, clinging to the idea of that someone who could lose them, who they could lose. It hurt. The static grew and it hurt. Every instinct begged them to let it take over, to let the Eye claim them)
<< he knew Eilir was suffering. He could tell, like a sixth sense. He groaned, ignoring the fight that was basically background noise to his ringing ears. He managed to sit up, though dizziness almost made him fall back down. On his hands and knees, he crawled over to the edge of the void. He couldn’t see Eilir, but he knew they were there. >>
“Eilir..?” He croaked, trying to shout as loudly as he could. Just in case they could hear him.
(They heard… something. Something very familiar. What… what was it? It sounded so close… like they could reach up and touch it. But their body—was it even a body at this point?—hurt. Everything hurt. The static… there was so much, too much. It sounded like it was mixed with hundreds of different voices saying something all at once, though they couldn’t make it out. That one voice, calling out that familiar word rang out among all of them. Maybe, just maybe, if they could reach up and touch it…)
<< suddenly Cypher felt a hand grab his own. He almost let go, startling and letting out a pained yelp. How deep was the void? Did it even have a depth? He pulled, but it burned his wounds and strained his body. He continued, however, and soon he had Eilir out of the Void. His eyes widened and he quickly pounced onto them, hugging them tight. >>
“Dear gods Eilir I thought I lost you…”
(they blinked deliriously. Their entire body still throbbed. The sudden weight of Knowledge that was momentarily cut off from them came crashing down at once upon them emerging from the void. They started to cry. Whoever held them, they felt so familiar, they felt safe. In the background they were aware of everything else going on; Jon laying bloodied and broken in the grass, Tim seeming… off, the entity. They tried to call out to both to see if they were ok)

(Translation:
T-Tim? J… on? Is everyone alright? O-oh, C-Cypher! You…)
( ooc: @stokering-it, @j-s-archivist )
(Tim didnt hear Eilir. Maybe it was the overwhelming ringing still plaguing him even after the explosion or, maybe it was the clear objective.
Somehow reach Jon.
That seemed practically impossible with how much he was melting. His legs would probably give in as soon as he stood.
It didn’t matter though Tim was going to make it over to Jon.
Tim crawled over to where Jon was not even realising someone was calling his name. Tim was so focused on getting to Jon that as soon as he did he just collapsed onto Jon like a kids blanket using it to defend themselves from their monsters.)
(Eilir tries to console Jon from their spot in Cypher’s arms, but they are cut off by a bout of coughing up blood and static)
“Eilir-“ he froze, afraid.
<< he was afraid. >>
“What can I do? What do you need- I- do you need to Know something? Do you need statements, like Jon..?” He tried, talking quickly and stumbling over his words.
(They shook their head)

(They said the last part more clearly)
(Translation: N-no t…time for s-statements… I’ll be fine…)
”… if you say so..”
<< he paused for a moment, as if thinking, but he gently rubbed Eilir’s side with his thumb as he did so as a sort of offer of comfort. >>
“did you know..” he started, “that wild dolphins call each other by name? They have special whistles for one another.” He blurted.
(Eilir smiled and started to laugh, though that quickly descended into another coughing fit. They practically doubled over)
<< his eyes widened and he let out a short laugh, too, though quickly rushed to support them. Offering them a tense smile, he pulled them back against himself and leaned his head against their shoulder. >>
“hey, try to calm down, yeah?” A pause. Eilir could practically hear the stupid grin in his voice. “Did my dolphin facts help..?”
(they nodded, smiling)
“Hmmm,” he hummed, putting a finger to his chin playfully, pretending to think thoroughly.
“well, did you know bearded vultures are a kind of bird that dye themselves red using clay and rock to show power? And they drop bones from high up into rocks so they can eat the shards.” He grinned.

(Translation: Thanks…)
“So dumb facts help? What about personal ones? Like… uh, I am deeply afraid of heights.” He blurted, not even really thinking about it. He didn’t even mean to share that. The only person that would know that would be the one Vast avatar that got to himself a while ago. Being around Eilir was like being compelled. He trusted them.
(they seemed panicked for a second, thinking that they compelled him. They opened their mouth to apologise but were again abruptly cut off by a coughing fit)
<< he lightly bonked them with his head. >>
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Is it helping at all?” He knew fear helped all avatars to some degree, and he was more than willing to be afraid of it would help Eilir get out of this state. >>
(They nodded, though they looked guilty. Eilir hated that they were feeding on Cypher’s fear. They desperately wanted to hug him, both to console him and for their own comfort, but they Knew he was injured and would only be hurt more if they did)
he sighed, biting his lip nervously and nodding. “i figured.” He murmured, giving them a smile.
“When I was little, after my mom passed, my dad… wasn’t a good person. He never was, mind you, but it got worse. I took care of myself then, because he was always out. I never had any idea what he was doing, but I used to think it must be so very important. So I’d always clean up the house for him, waiting for him to get back and whatnot. But I learned, slowly, that when he came home he was always tired and mad. That first night he came back after midnight, I was so excited to ask him what he did all day. The second I asked, he snapped his gaze to me like a zombie in a thriller movie and started yelling. He told me everything that was wrong with me.” He shuddered. “I remember when I started to hide under my bed whenever I heard the door creak open.”
(Eilir looked at him with the deepest sorrow and… fear? They were scared for Cypher. They seemed positively angry that anyone would hurt Cypher. They lightly but comfortingly hugged Cypher)

“It’s fine.” He said instantly, offering them a smile. He jolted a hit at the hug. “Don’t waste your energy.” He murmured playfully.
“… did it help..? Do you need more..?” He said hesitantly.

”hmm.” He hummed. “But… if you need more, I-I’m not- i can-“ he managed, trying to explain it. He was afraid to do it, for sure, but he was willing.
he wondered if he just blurted it if they would listen. Maybe he’d have to to keep them safe.
he sighed, burying his head in Eilir’s shoulder.
“He always told me I didn’t matter. That if I ever told anyone what he did when he was drunk, he’d show me what real pain was like.” He murmured, tugging at his tattered sleeves to hide the goosebumps in his arms.

“Stop arguing. It’s worth it, okay? I can literally see you getting better.” He smiled. “I… really care about you, okay? So, uh… don’t die.” He grinned as if he was proud of himself for that statement, though the light blush was unmistakable.

(They begged him, looking desperate)
(Translation: Cypher… please don’t…)
They hated this, he could tell. He knew they weren’t doing good, he knew they’d probably need quite a few statements to actually get better. But he did knowww hat he’d do with - or more importantly, to - himself if they died and he hadn’t done everything he could.
he was torn. He wanted to try to help. He had one more story, but he didn’t want to make them sad. He saw the look in their eyes.
He wiped a tear off his cheek, sparing himself no gentleness. His nails left red scratches among bruises and cuts. “okay. I’m sorry.” He murmured.
(They hugged him once again, gently and comforting. They Knew his dilemma. Above all the chaos that filled their head, that’s what stuck out the most. They hated that he felt that way, but they Knew there wasn’t an alternative. They, right now, had to focus on protecting him. And the others. Obviously them as well. How could they forget them?)
<< he let out a sound akin to a breathless whimper, burying his face in their shoulder. They were too gentle with him. He was not fragile. His thoughts were cut short by a stoning, burning pain from one of his wounds… maybe he was a little fragile right now. >>
“Compel me,” he offered after a long while of silence, “I- I know you need fear.” He took a deep breath. “And mine is… too buried for me to tell you.”
(Eilir simply shook their head)

(Translation: I’m not hurting you more…)
“Eilir..” he said, voice concerned. “Eilir please- i- you Compel me or not, I’m telling you. You-“ he cut off. “You can’t die.”
he buried his head in their shoulder. “I.. I kinda like you, okay? So please, please don’t go. Let me help.” He admitted, holding them close.

(Translation: No, Cypher- I… I won’t)
He sighed heavily, his breaths as shaky as his hands. He shook his head.
“fine. Fine. But if I see you… fading, or whatever, I’m telling you everything.” Cypher said, raising his head, his gaze determined. “Agreed?”
(they gave him an exhausted pleading look that turned resigned. They Knew he would be willing to do anything for them. They’d be willing to do anything for him. They hated that they would need to feed on his fear just to survive)
He smiled, nodded, and gently rested his chin on Eilir’s shoulder.
“yeah. Okay. Compel me whenever, I promise I’ll be fine. It won’t hurt me too bad. And besides, you should know better than anyone that it hurts more to bury it.” He murmured, nuzzling into their shoulder to rest. He wanted to sleep. He felt himself slipping, assuming it was fatigue and not blood loss. The wounds all over him seemed to have been forgotten.
(They gave him a small, fatigued smile. They wanted nothing more in the world than to cuddle up with him on the sofa and… just rest. Not roam around doing whatever nonsense this is or working… they actually wanted to pause and take a break. They thought that they needed to keep living off stress, but now? Now they just wanted it to stop. They were exhausted. They wanted Cypher to be safe. And Jon and Tim. And Agnes, of course. They wanted everyone to be safe. Their exhaustion quickly turned into anger towards to entity as they saw the full extent of the damage it had done. They would put an end to this. They gave Cypher an apologetic look before forcing themself to their feet to face the entity who had just noticed the group? They braced themself)
“Shit-“ cypher managed, stumbling and collapsing to his hands and knees when Eilir moved away. He coughed, quickly covering up the blood he coughed up. “Eilir no-“
he tried to get up with them, but he was overcome with dizziness and he collapsed back down.
“Eilir-! Don’t. Please-“

(At first they went to go back to him, but they Knew the entity was getting closer and would not hesitate)
(Translation:
Cypher! Please… stay behind me And… I’m sorry)
”no..” he managed, his voice a breathless plea. He reached out towards them, but he couldn’t. He couldn’t move, he couldn’t get up, everything hurt so, so very badly.
“Eilir.. please… please at least stay safe.” Cypher said, running a hand through his hair, stressed.

*The entity watched the interaction unfold as it stalked closer. Its smile appeared to somehow grow. It wanted to pounce, to attack now but wanted to wait for a better opportunity.*
(( idk if it’s alright to make it attack anyone / ooc ))
Cypher managed a weak growl from behind Eilir, still defensive of Eilir even if he was pained and incapable of getting to his feet.
(( idk Cypher was attacked so I don’t think it matters lol ))
“Oh cute…Unfortunately growling won’t do you any good…”
*It said with a glitch in its voice before straight up grabbing Ellir by the neck and slashed its claws at Cypher, leaving a large, gaping wound.*
(( i already got the ok from linkachu to torment Ellir so… / ooc ))
He cried out in pain, bowing his head and pressing his hands tight to the bleeding wound on his ribs. It didn’t staunch the bleeding too well, however.
he felt dizzy. He wanted.. to sleep. It didn’t help that he had already lost so much blood from previous wounds.
( @not-linkachu )
(Eilir flailed about wildly in the entities grip, infuriated at its attack on Cypher. The amount of static around them grew exponentially as Eilir went into a blind [not really blind lol] rage. They were succumbing to the Eye’s influence. They managed to nick the entity in the jaw with their foot, as their hands were too preoccupied in attempting to free their neck)

( @j-s-archivist, @stokering-it )
(As soon as the Computer seemed to be distracted with Eilir and Cypher Tim scooped up Jon in his arms (ignoring the cracking of Jons legs when doing that) and stumbling up to his feet.)
(Tim hesitated for a moment before thinking “fuck it I'm protecting Jon!” and ran off with Jon in his arms)
*Jon let out a pained gasp as he was lifted. He winced and let his head fall back, groaning weakly. …But what if he ended up hurting Tim? He didn’t want to hurt the one he cared most about but he felt too weak to say…anything. And he couldn’t force words out anymore. It’s like something was stopping him..*
(( Foreshadowing, foreshadowing / ooc ))
“Shit Sorry…”
(Tim whispered, running his hand up and down Jon’s arm to try and soothe him.)
(Admittedly Tim had no idea where to go so he ran back into the little farm house that they had found Oliver in.)
(Once they were inside Tim gently put Jon down and against the wall so he could sit up.)
“…Tim…”
*Jon managed out, very much wanting to say more but God was he feeling weak…and woozy…and tired for the first time in, well, forever. He let out a small sob. His body ached so much. Worse than when those wretched worms burrowed into his skin. So much worse. The wires. Oh, God, the wires.*
(Jon notices a tiny black spider scuttling about the ground. It stops near he and Tim, waving it’s forelimbs)

See, Danny? I told you he would be alive.
Shut up, Cane.
(looking smug)
Come now, I was simply trying to help.
You didn't even say he would be alive.
But I said that you could save him, therefore implying that he was alive.
That does not imply hes alive. That could also imply hes dead and we're reanimating his CORPSE
Then it wouldn’t be saving him, would it?
