Zwei can't help but make an audible expression of both confusion and...strange cringey-ness as her arm becomes an actual arm again.
"Yeeeeeeesh! Didn't expect that at all!...But...uhh...Thanks."
With Vincent's mention of hurrying up, though, she shakes the lingering feeling off and follows him in a hurry; she looks back and waves goodbye at the mystery girl before leaving the dome.
Raine notices Thoren's apparent spontaneous combustion and breaks off the embrace.
"T-Thoren!!"
She stumbles a bit before heading towards the man on fire.
Some of the Kats seem to be panicking from the sight, including the two who have returned from outside the castle.
From rain to literal fire. That's a strange thing to walk into.

"IT WON'T GO OUT. ΔLPHΔ, WHY THE FUCK DO YOU HΔVE TO BE SO GOOD ΔT BEING LIKΔBLE ENOUGH TO NOT BE HΔTED FOREVER?!" Thoren yells out while still trying to smother the flames. Alpha Seth sighs. He doesn't know how to solve Thoren's dilemma at all.
Vincent carefully sticks his robotic arm outside of the bubble membrane. Nothing notable happens. Good sign. He braces himself and walks out of the safe zone. The bot seems to be generating enough energy to sustain him outside. ==> Nowhere Path

Raine starts to panic.
"What do we do, Seth...? He's gonna...he's gonna...!!"
She starts to cry again. Girl can't catch a break, can she?
"How did he catch on fire....?!"
She tries to reach over to Thoren. Why? Courage? Blind foolishness? A spontaneous decision that she'll probably regret? Who knows.

"He has these kind of reactions every time I'm able to express love and he isn't. I don't know how to stop it." Seth tries to explain to Raine.
"MΔYBE IF YOU WEREN'T SO BUSY BEING SUCH Δ FUCKING CΔSΔNOVΔ THIS WOULDN'T HΔVE HΔPPENED!" Thoren continues his rolling.
"THOREN! MY INTENTIONS WERE NOBLE! SHE WAS IN A BAD PLACE AND I HAD TO SET HER STRAIGHT FOR FUCK'S SAKE!" Seth yells back at Thoren.
"ΔND LEΔVE ME ΔLONE HERE?!"
Upon trying to make contact with Thoren, Raine would feel a very warm burning sensation, but it wouldn't quite reach harmful levels.

Smoke is now walking around, snacking on a small bag of chips.
He sees some commotion and smoke through the air, coupled with shouting. "It's probably nothing." He shrugs.
He scratches the back of his head and wanders towards the door.
----------------------------------
Remose finished tending to BB.
"Now so not be doing anything rash, or really. Any moving aside from basic functions like drinking and eating."
He takes off the gloves he had put on for the quick job.
"I'll return later to re-dress the bandages and depending on how it's looking I could give you an estimate on how long you'll be out of action....or at least how long you SHOULD be resting."
With that Remose leaves him and walks towards the door. He sees a robot exit and then Smoke shuffling over to linger nearby.
"Where was that robot going?"
"The Seth-bot? From what I could gather by General overhearing, is he's going to go get himself killed fighting this, "Omega" dude."
"Oh? Hmm. I think I shall tag along as well."
"Alright Doc.... Heh....Doc," Smoke chuckles. "Just uh be careful cause you're our only source of real medicine for the time being. If you need me just pester."
"I am positive I'll be alright. Anyways, I will return shortly I'm sure!"
Remose exits the dome.

"I....I'm sorry! This is my fault again...!"
Raine tries to catch him, ignoring the fact that the fire might probably hurt her if she's not careful.
This girl really needs to stop being so risky.

Upon being caught, Thoren's fire condenses and cools slightly. He almost feels like he's alive, but there is no heartbeat on his end, just a steady warm burn.
He stares at Raine thoughtfully with his blank eyes, though it might come off as looking pretty creepy.

Dylan seems quite content to rest for a while. He drifts off to sleep.... and his dream avatar appears in the same exact room.
He looks much like he used to, before the terrible incident happened. Just a "regular teenage boy" wearing baseball pajamas.
He enters the main ballroom area in awe of his surroundings. So many of them look so similar though. Were the developers really that lazy when they designed these npc's?
Dylan walks towards the crowd of assorted ball attendees. He notices something quite clear right away: nearly all of them have blank eyes.
They're all Dead.
It doesn't really matter that much to Dylan though. Even ghosts are better company than the computer players from the games he used to hop between in his dreams.
He walks up to one of the ones wearing a dress.
"...hi, my name's Dylan. Where am I exactly? My body just got removed from the final remains of the warden, and is still recovering. I'm pretty sure I'm still alive... somehow. Who might you be?"

FLord walks off going through one of the other doors... its getting pretty convoluted in here and-
...okay. Why is there a computer terminal hooked up to a broken door frame?
"...Guys?"

Raine tries to ignore the awkward, somewhat creepy feeling.
"Don't think I forgot all about what you did for me back there..."
She reaches for one of his hands and holds it tightly.
"T-thank you...If it weren't for you...I...I don't know what could have happened to me."
The girl Dylan tries to talk to turns around to see him.
"Oh, hello. I...was once a girl named Kat, but since there's so many of us here, I'd prefer that you call me Antheia."
She shows him a somewhat sad smile.
"Apparently this is Seth's Dream space...Though I have heard that it used to be called 'The Stage'...and was...or is part of his mind...? It's strange..."

The woman in white goes back and rejoins the ballroom. She covers her face with the fan again and wanders among the Kats and Seths.

Thoren stares at Raine even more, tears dripping down. His lips quiver, shakily forming a smile. He returns the strong hand grip. It's a bit uncomfortable of a grip, but at least his hand is still radiating heat.
Suddenly, he is enveloped in light. His grip remains warm and strong. The heart container necklace Alpha Seth is wearing also lights up.
A great flash reveals Thoren has changed somehow.
His tuxedo, and the raging fire has been replaced by a flame print silk shirt, and he is still warm to the touch. Still dead though.
Seth can feel a similar warmth, in addition to his natural body heat.
Outside, it has stopped raining and the sun is shining brightly. The light filters down through the stained glass ceiling, bathing the room in a red light.

FLord proceeds to smack into a wall, due to the sharp turn.
"WHAT THE HELL?!"

Niki is getting some major readings from her lighty senses. She can't ignore it anymore.
"Guys, I'm going out. Something big's happening and I can't just stay put while I might be needed." she says to whomever can hear her nearby, considering mystery person didn't even notice her calls earlier.
She walks out of the place as her dress fades back to her light mage robe.

Some of the seths hear Niki as she's leaving.
"is she sure about that?"
"she's the fucking mage of corn! of course she's right!"
"lucky warmblood gets to go outside..."
Alpha Seth seems concerned, but sadly he's stuck here for the night. At least he and Thoren have finally pacified Raine.
At the far end of the ballroom, some of the seths are taking seats and readying their instruments. The link seths have deployed their siren instruments for the others to use, though it seems some of them they don't know how to use all that much. Most of them stick to their cellos, knowing how to play it well enough.
In all the chaos, Marin had wandered off and had wandered over here. Her sundress has been changed to a beautiful blue gown, still wearing her necklace and hair flower.
"What song will you be playing on this fine day?" She asks the pianist.
"Only the best song ever. Flower Shoppe!" Mac smiles while Jasper facepalms.
"Flower Shoppe? I've never heard that one. I'd like to hear it." Jasper seems to be trying to make a "no, don't let him start" gesture, but she's to genuinely curious to heed his warning.
Mac begins playing that one vaporwave song that he almost always plays by default. The other seths with instruments, knowing this song well from having had to pass by Mac and his piano to get to the elevator of the tower, easily begin adding their own accompaniment.
Soon the ballroom is filled with music, almost beckoning to be danced to.
"...may I have this dance?" Thoren asks Raine, while still on the floor holding her hand tight.
Meanwhile, Raphael makes his way back to the fields outside. He has a hunch on something.
He begins walking off towards the two-story house in the distance.
Cojiro follows him.
