[ Sorry for any rescuers eardrums when they hear her voice, but for a being who can be dissolved by water, seeing the high, fierce waves hit the side of Virgo HQ is something out of a nightmare. ]

Everyone get away from the Virgo HQ! The ocean's gone crazy! The water levels are rising!

[ Someone else will have to respond to Lapis. Agent 3 isn't having any of it. ]

[The ocean went crazy? And if water is poison to Agent 3-]

Are you okay?

[woomy]

I think so... I'm still a few blocks away but...

[spokethetruth]

Agent 3, please go inland! It's too risky to be out there.

[woomy]

I'm trying to! What's going on?!

[spokethetruth]

I...don't know??

[He really doesn't.]

Does it look like something Virgo is causing?

[woomy]

I-I'm not sure. I can't see too clearly with all the waves. I think stuff's breaking.

[nuns4money]

Holy shit! You ok?

[After all, Girl is made of ink.]

[woomy]

I am so far, but the crazy water's not stopping!

[nuns4money]

It's clear out, why would the waves be so high?

[woomy]

I don't know. Are there giant ocean creatures in these oceans?

[nuns4money]

I hope not.

[She was told that Tera was like Earth.]

[woomy]

Not all of them are bad. The Great Zapfish can power Inkopolis. ... But if it's not a giant ocean creature, what's going on?

[ She asks like she's not seeing it herself. ]

[nuns4money]

The Great Zapfish?

Do we know anyone with water powers?

[woomy]

Not me. But they sound like someone I need to be careful of if they're a person.

[lightthedarkness]

Are you alright? You're not hurt, are you?

[woomy]

I'm okay for now, but the waves are really, really big! I wish I could Super Jump away!

[lightthedarkness]

Do you need me to come and get you?

[woomy]

I don't know if you can come in. There's a lot of cars and people trying to see what's going on.

[ And blocking traffic with their cell phones out instead of getting to safety. It's why Agent 3 is having so much trouble getting further away. ]

[lightthedarkness]

If you need me, make no mistake, I'll come.

[woomy]

I think I'll be okay. I'm squeezing my way through the crowd.

[lightthedarkness]

Keep me posted though. I don't want you hurt.

[woomy]

Okay, I can do that.

[intohell]

[Riza has yet to actually see the ocean and now doesn't appear to be the time to do so.]

Do you or anyone else need help?

[woomy]

As long as it doesn't get even crazier, I think I've made it far enough....

It looks like the bottom floor is getting wrecked.

[intohell]

Is that normal?

[woomy]

Splat that! I hope not. I'll never be able to help the Virgo musicians if this keeps up.

[intohell]

I don't think you'll be able to help them right now. Just try to keep safe and leave it to the rest of us.

[Or the locals if there really is an immediate threat.]

[woomy]

[ She was talking more in the future. Crazy waves surrounding the building would be some frightening defenses. ]

Are you going to go do something?

[intohell]

I will if I can. I'm not sure what could be done against something that might be a natural occurrence. [And what does she know of the ocean and how it's supposed to act?] But if anyone needs a hand otherwise.

[woomy]

Is this something we can call the police on to get people to stay away? I don't know how risky that is for us.

[intohell]

I'm sure the local authorities have been notified, but I'll contact them as well. They should be less concerned about who is calling and more about the content of the call.

[woomy]

Okay. I'll keep watching at a good distance and update people if I see any changes.

[ Emphasis on a "good distance." Holy carp, this scary. ]

[avidita]

[They're not going to ask if 3 is alright, on the grounds of a thousand other people have asked already. There are important things to note here.]

Did you notice anything unusual about the water? Besides what it's doing, obviously.

[woomy]

It's... It's staying around the building. It's not along the whole coast like a wave should be!

[avidita]

So someone is obviously controlling it... And they want to break into Virgo, for whatever reason.

Have you talked to anyone who can control water?

[woomy]

No, not really. I can't remember if anyone said that power at our meeting, so I dunno.

[avidita]

That's the problem with picking up a bunch of random people who have no reason to tell anyone else about themselves.... Tch.

If it is one of ours and not something from Pride, this could backlash for everyone.

[woomy]

[ Oh. That is a really good (and bad) point. ]

Um... someone who's not super weak to water should probably get a closer look.

[avidita]

[Sigh.]

I'll see about it, but no promises.

[woomy]

[ She loves you too, Mammon. ]
