Well. That exploded quickly. Alicia could only blink as Karin practically snapped under Kisara’s teasing. Seriously she had never seen anyone flip out quite to that degree. And did she actually mean that first part of her freak out? Well… Alicia wasn’t going to judge anybody on their preferences. Or poke at her about it. If she wanted to clamp down on that, she had every right to keep that to herself.
Unfortunately for Karin, Kisara was not the one to let such a blow up go unused when it gave her something else to pester the poor Tamer over. ”Oho? Moving quick with the admissions! What, are you trying to imply Alicia’s your type of girl then? Come on, you can tell me~!” the ice maiden quipped with an evil grin, snickering to herself as she tried to contain her mirth at Karin’s first reaction. Alicia at least managed to restrain her own reaction at the spirit’s comments, only blushing dark at the implication she was posing. She feared she’d get dragged into this as well if she started shouting too.
”Kisara, she’s going to hurt you if you keep that up.” Sol cautioned off hand. Not that he expected the ice maiden to listen. Being a spirit made her much more likely to push the envelope at little further than normal if she thought she could get away without actually hurting someone else. And besides this was the most fun she’s had in quite a while. Even Isaac didn’t flip out quite this badly!

While she's really blushing and how Jeanne practically substituted whatever was supposed to be popcorn into chicken poprock and noms on it, Kisara just have to make her blush even redder. With practically almost anime panic face on her face, she start blurting out even more outrageous remarks.
"W-W-WELL SHE'S A BEAUTIFUL WOMA---WAIT, A BEAUTIFUL NEESA--WAAAIT , THAT'S NOT ALL WHAT I MEANT, I MEAN, WHAT ARE YOU MAKING ME TO SAY, YOU DAMN SPIRIT!?" she rose from her seat, still looking very humorous and shaken. She took a stance and launches a flying scissor kick to Kisara's head while shouting one last gem "NO MATTER HOW BEAUTIFUL SHE IS, NOR HOW MATTER I WANT TO BE AS BEAUTIFUL, I'M TAKEN GODDAMMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTT!!"
Of course Jeanne just somehow have to compliment this sort of move with a scoreboard that says "100" written in red ink, truly enjoying the show. Karin's kick would be nasty, but is it as bad as wrench to the head?

Could it have ended any other way? Could it have REALLY ended any other way? Karin seemed to have finally had enough after blurting out several more things that were both embarrassing and frankly quite flattering, the Tamer finally lunged into a full body flying kick at Kisara. The ice maiden, accepting from the get go that she deserved whatever Karin decided to dish out in return, played the part of the good sport and made herself a stationary target for the poor girl.
Naturally, this meant she took the boot to the face and went tumbling off into the distance. But she had to get one more barb in before she couldn’t be heard any more! ”I never made you say anything! You’re most honest with yourself when you’re flustered!” the ice maiden called back and she tumbled off into the distance somewhere. Toward the exit? Deeper into the Labyrinth? No one knew for sure, but no one really needed to worry because well she was a spirit and thus could do spirit things to have shortcuts back.
”That could’ve ended better…” Sol quipped.
“… Yep… Sorry she did that to you Karin…” Alicia noted, looking to the poor Tamer with quite the large blush on her own cheeks. What? Could anyone stay stoic after such heartfelt, if flustered, words?

"Aww, that's so sweet of you!"
An all-too-familiar voice chirped from one of the passages in the Tyrant's Labyrinth, echoing a little as it traveled down the all-too-narrow walls. Kisara, who had been punted down one of the passageways, would find herself far closer to the voice than the others were. Sure enough, Elliot would emerge from the hall she was kicked down, briefly stooping down and offering her his hand. At least somebody was a gentleman here! After helping the spirit up he would continue making his way over to the duo, waving. There was a bright smile on his face, especially as he looked back and forth and realized everyone here was someone he knew.
"Hey Alicia, hey Karin!" he said, looking back and forth between the two. Eventually his eyes settled on Karin. "Crushing on my big sis, huh? That's okay. I'm sure a ton of people do." And just with a few sentences, Elliot took a debate that was winding it down and probably reignited it big time. The sad thing was, there wasn't even a sign of teasing or malice in his voice. He just matter-of-factly commented that yes, Alicia was totally a great person to have a crush on. Honestly, he could be such a weird kid sometimes!
Similarly weird was the fact that he just showed up here. But to be fair, that was a point he seemed to find a little weird as well. "So, what are you guys doing here?" he asked, whether the dust from his hand grenade of a comment settled by then or not. "This isn't really the nicest part of the Digital World, is it? Are you guys looking for something?"

Had Karin in better and less flustered condition, she'd retorted that the spirit is baiting her, but now she's just blushing so red. Jeanne meanwhile, feeling a bit disappointed that all this funny show have to stop right there reluctantly put away her chicken poprock. Karin was breathing heavily. At first when Alicia apologized, she merely was about to play it cool...
...until a certain guest appearance.
"W-W-WHAT ARE YOU SAYING EVEN!? W-WHO'S CRUSHING W---" nope, definitely sounds like a kouhai gushing over a senpai. "...I-I HAVEN'T BEEN NOT---" you've been noticed. Jeanne slowly raises back her bucket of chicken poprock and ate it veeery slowly, like she she's awaiting for the second level meltdown. "F-FOR THE SECOND AND LAST TIME I'LL SAY IT--"...no, she somehow have to repeat it as much as possible "FOR THE SECOND TIME AND FOR MANY TIMES TO COME--" that sounds like you're asking to be teased more about it, Karin!
The more her partner entered meltdown, the more Jeanne ate her chicken snack.
"I'M TAKEN DAMMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTT!!"
She was completely so red and spent that Jeanne was forced to answer it. "...So, to cut it short, I and Mistress Karin is looking for our digimental, while Miss Alicia is pulled by Miss Kisara here for whatever reason. However, while we don't find any lead to the said object, I'm very amused by all this fun, so I think this is a great and equal compensation."

Well… Hopefully things had died down now that Kisara was gone and she’d apologized. There’s no way this day could get any worse. Right? … She needed to stop tempting fate as the last person she wanted to have walk into this mess do exactly that. Elliot being here, without Isaac at that, was quite the shock to her. And then he cheerfully sets the inferno a blaze again. Without even intending to be teasing or malicious. Elliot had… Elliot…
Sol looked over at Alicia, who had gone stone still and pale, eyes shrinking steadily and expression affixed into a crooked and much-to-large grin as she stared at Elliot. ”uh oh… bombs away…” he deadpanned while backing up. The fuse is lit. The restraints have snapped. Impact in 3… 2… 1…
“E-E-E-ELLIOT WHAT THE- WHY ARE- SHE’S NOT- I MEAN THIS IS-. I-I MEAN YEAH, SHE THINKS- ERR AND WELL SHE’S CU- AAAAAGH WHY DID YOU HAVE TO SHOW UP NOW!? IT DOESN’T EVEN MAT- L-LIKE SHE SAID SHE’S TAKEN AND, AND - OH GOD WHY NOW!?” The poor red head shrieked as she stood up, blushing from head to toe with eyes wide and body shaking from the embarrassment of the whole thing.
”Wow! Alicia are you tr-“ Kisara began as she tilted her head, having gratefully accepted Elliot’s help to rejoin the group.
“Y-YOU SHUT UP YOU DEVIOUS ICE WITCH YOU’RE THE O-ONE WHO STARTED THIS WHOLE MESS BY POKING FUN AT KARIN ABOUT THE RI- N-NEVERMIND JUST FOR ONE SECOND SHUT UUUUUUUUUP!” Alicia screamed back, interrupting Kisara. Only as she was screaming she hadn’t realized that the ice maiden had floated over to Alicia’s side and then, with all the innocence of a scheming weasel, ‘bumped’ the off-balance Spirit user so she started to topple towards Karin.
“W-W-WHA- KISARA WHY-AY-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!” And with an unceremonious collapse, Alicia tumbled into the Tamer, knocking the both of them down with Alicia practically laying on the poor Tamer and looking her in the eyes. And it was at that point Alicia’s brain just shut down period.
”… Kisara…? Run. Just… Run.” Sol advised.

Turning to Jeanne, Elliot nodded. "Oh! Okay. I can help you guys out with that," he said, voice merry. "That's actually why I'm here too! Well, sorta. Y'see, my bro and I were looking for our latest spirits. We figured with the whole order-chaos thing, a giant plant maze would fit the bill perfectly. I mean, you're taking all this chaotic life and ordering it into a nice, organized maze. That's pretty relevant, right? He took the south side, and I took the north side, and we promised to meet up if we don't find anything in the next hour.
So far, we haven't had any luck. But its been a nice chance to get out of the ho- wait, what?"
Elliot blinked. Wow, this was a totally new side of Alicia! Hell, it was a new side of Karin, too, even if it was one he had walked in on earlier in the conversation. He didn't really expect two of the more no-nonsense people he knew to suddenly start blushing, stammering, and tripping over their words. Hell, and tripping over each other, with a little bit of creative help from Kisara! Honestly, Elliot hadn't expected his little comment to send them into that much of a frenzy. Yet now they were soulfully staring into each other's eyes like it was a romance manga, a visual so crazy Elliot almost wanted to start cracking up over it.
Nevertheless, he kept his composure, making the unfortunate mistake of not following Sol in his backing away. Instead he blinked, looking down at his new friend and surrogate big sister. "You see, this is why I gotta find a date for you," Elliot said, statement aimed at Alicia. "And not with my brother, either. I know you think he's cute, but he's taken. And way too young for you." Oh god, Elliot just dropped that bomb. How did he even needle that information out of Isaac in the first place?

Oh my, this might be probably the MOST JUICY THING EVER IN DIGITAL WORLD! Jeanne ate more and more as she watched how Alicia also start to broke due to the teasing--and the bomb dropped by Elliot. She's really tempted to mutter something along the line of "There is a point where we needed to stop and we have clearly passed it but let's keep going and see what happens"... well, at this point they're beyond salvation. However, the one that takes all the cake and icing is of course... the prank by Kisara.
....Alicia on the top, sandwiching the much younger girl. If only this is anime, smoke would be visible rising from the younger girl's. She slowly dropped her bucket of chicken and leaned closer to Karin's mouth.
"...Let's see... mhm? Mounting position...? ...Riding? Yeah, she's riding you, you're not riding her... she looks like mount everest? Oh, mounting position? ...You're talking in circle here, mistress..." she listened to her again, and this time... "...Her boob's big? ...You felt like you're smooshed by two Fuji-san (Fuji Mountain) made of marshmellow? ...Marshmellow heaven? But there's nothing between you two. Volcano...? Ah, her face is as red as volcano. OK, that's official, Karin.EXE has crashed, Error 404, Karin.EXE not found."
...and thus the girl lost consciousness along with burst of nosebleed...
"...Oh, Alicia is cougar?" TWIST THE KNIFE DEEPER, JEANNE, WHY DON'T YOU!? "Mistress is taken though!" SHE KNEW THAT ALREADY.

Why, oh why had it come to this!? How could everything have gone so horribly wrong in such a quick way!? Why on Earth did Elliot have to come and drop a bomb on everything right after things were cooling down!? Once Alicia’s brain finally kick started again, she couldn’t help but blink at Karin, who seemed to have passed out at some point… with… a nosebleed… Whyyyyyyy? Of course, then Jeanne had to twist the knife further by calling her a cougar. “…” And now everything that had been relayed from the blankly muttering Karin came to mind. Well, at least she had extra outside confirmation that she was good looking. ”Well, why not kiss her Alicia? This day’s already shown a whole bunch of sinful aspects this relationship can have so what’s one more on the pile? You yourself thought she was a cutie.” Kisara quipped, trying to goad a response out of Alicia. Alicia’s response was to get up, turn into Mercurialdramon all of a sudden, slide over to a convenient corner and promptly melt into a babbling pile that wasn’t even really making any kind of understandable words anymore. Kisara blinks and looked at the still assembled group. ”Uh… I guess that’s a literal rendition of ‘falling to pieces’…?” the ice maiden asked in surprise. Sol just groaned at the pun and face palmed… (Edit: As for the comment Elliot made, read this thread for context: digimonforumrp.freeforums.net/thread/2967/sooner-alicia? )

Elliot blinked, trying to process what was going on. Karin had passed out, and Jeanne was bumbling about all kinds of strange stuff, and Alicia was . . . okay, what was Alicia even doing? So that left Elliot as the last human standing here, somehow. Did that mean he won? What did he even win, other than a front seat to a super confusing day? He looked around at Jeanne, Sol, and even Kisara, as if asking them for help on understanding anything that had been going on right now. When even Elliot's vacant smile gave way to bewilderment, it was clear something funny was going on.
He walked over to the goopy puddle that was once Alicia, giving her gentle pats on the head. Or, rather, where the head should have been. He could barely tell what was what anymore. Of course, knowing today, he was probably accidentally patting her butt or something. "Hey. Hey, c'mon, its okay," he said, trying to find the right words to motivate his puddled friend. "You're Alicia! You're smart, and pretty, and strong, and funny, and brave, and helpful, and hard-working, and really nice. You shouldn't have to be embarrassed about stuff. C'mon, get back up, please." He waited to see if the dragon would actually get back up, but after a few seconds of waiting and trying to cheer Alicia up he started heading over to Karin.
"Um, should we keep her head up?" he asked, looking worriedly around the room. Just in case he pulled The Good Pillow out of his bag, preparing to gingerly lift Karin's head up and slide the pillow underneath. "I'm sorry my big sis was too stunning, and ended up knocking you out," he said, looking around for anything else he could use to help. "Does anyone else have tea? A blanket? Something? I don't wanna just leave her lying here like this . . ."
You know, for the guy who caused half of this trouble in the first place, Elliot sure could be too sweet for his own good.

While Kisara was goading response out of now goopy pile of mercury, Jeanne tried her best to contain her laughter at all this funny situation to no avail. Goodness, that was just way too good! She snrked as now the pile become so babbling and honestly just about to pushes the knife deeper, but without her needing to do it, already Elliot is in action! Attaboy!
"THE PROBLEM IT'S NOT SHE'S TOO STUNNING," Karin suddenly woke up, blood gushing out even more, but she doesn't care. "LIKE SHE SAID YOU ICE WITCH FROM THE WEST, STOP MAKING IT EVEN MORE AWKWARD FOR US--"...You just admitted that Alicia is stunning? Way to go, Karin! "...I MEAN, I'M TAKEN--" you said that for the third time already. "OOOOOHHH! AND I DON'T NEED A KISS, I'M NOT A PRINCESS! I NEED SOMETHING ELSE---"
"...How does the marshmallow heaven felt like? Maybe that's what you need?" Jeanne offered a suggestion.
"My back felt hurt because of the grass but above is..." she made a strange hand gesture in front of her own chest "boin boin and it was rather odd the first time but it was rather g---"
She quickly sent a glare at her partner who immediately cackles like no tomorrow.
"JUST WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE ME TO SAY, YOU SADIST OF A PARTNER!?"
"Something to twist the knife deeper."
"...I hate you."
"But you also love me~"

Unfortunatley for Elliot, there would be little to no response from Alicia no matter what he did. The puddle of mercury did little but ripple from each pat. No word got anymore then more senseless muttering. She was well and truly out of commission for the time being. Which was a bit distressing to say the least.
”So~oo,” Kisara began, flashing a thumbs up to Jeanne. ”You keep saying your taken but you keep gushing over Alicia so much! AH! Is it possible one’s not enough to satisfy your desire?” Kisara… what are you getting at. ”Goodness it’s a wonder the other guy or girl is still standing!”
And now the devious ice maiden was cackling. When would the teasing ever end? ”I mean really, you say she’s stunning, and now you focus in on what’s really holding your attention!” Kisara then smirked, looking at Alicia. ”Well she clearly needs some help now to pull herself together! You’re not gonna leave your new sweetheart hanging, right Kariiiiin?”
Sol blinked and glared at the ice maiden. Apparently, he simply lacked the will to actually say anything about Kisara’s antics anymore. Shouldn’t this have ended with the flying kick? It should’ve but then Elliot decided to be the most unhelpful he’s been ever. The dragon shot him a look in turn before sighing.

Elliot jumped back in surprise at Karin's sudden awakening. If he hadn't gotten out of the way sooner, he probably would've gotten his head bonked! Still, that made the situation fine. Mostly. Right now Elliot's focus was now on the blood gushing from Karin's face. If blood got on his good pillow, he didn't know what he'd do. It was his most prized possession, and like the only thing he could sleep on. But he had also given it up for now out of the goodness of his own heart, so he couldn't really say anything about it just yet. He just hoped Karin wouldn't start spraying it everywhere, keeping in silence for the time being.
Then Kisara started teasing. Again. The first time it was kind of funny, when both Karin and Alicia were reacting super-silly. But then Alicia had gone all non-responsive, Sol wasn't even talking anymore, and Karin was stuck in the same loop of panic. He was way too worried about his friends to be amused now! He turned to Kisara, trying to find the right words. "H-hey! They've had enough, Kisara," he protested, gesturing to the completely unresponsive Alicia. "I know you like playing around, but I think you really started to hurt Alicia's feelings. I mean, she's not even talking anymore . . ."
He considered leaving it at that, with a worried voice and big, sad eyes. However, slowly, a grin started forming on his face. "Besides, its not like you're one to talk about new sweethearts. You were all over my brother on Halloween when he was in that Leo costume, remember?" Selectively canon! I chose selectively yes. "And I'm pretty sure it was your idea to make Alicia flirt with him at the maid cafe, right?
But that's okay. We don't gotta talk about your big, dumb crush on my bro if you don't want to."
If Elliot had a mic, he'd drop it right now. He could drop his walking stick, but that'd be dumb. So he dropped nothing.

There's a saying... break the things that already broken then its useless... but if you twist something too much, that something can be a different thing entirely. Suddenly, Karin stared at Kisara, but this time it's a deathly cold stare. "...Well, how about this, stop right now before I give you Karin's 100 hit leg combo. I'm not a spirit user, but I'm still very mighty athletic if you ask me. I'm going to count to ten, if you still grinning, I'm so executing the combo."
Welp, playtime over. Jeanne approached Alicia and poked her. "Are you still there?"
...Of course suddenly Elliot dropping a bomb made Jeanne's ear perks. With a grin of a predator, she now looked at Kisara. Oh my~ "I think I got some juicy stuff to share with Maia now... Oh but Kisara, aren't you old yourself? Did you hypnotize poor Alicia to do your bidding to flirt with Isaac? That's sly you know... you can just materialize and something you know?"

Kisara giggled a bit, before sighing. ”Ah don’t panic Elliot. You don’t live in someone’s mind and not have a good idea of how far you can go messing with them. Alicia’ll be fine soon enough. I mean if she was really over the deep end she wouldn’t still be in Mercurialdramon form. She can’t Spirit Evolve without some kind of focus in her mind.”
Now to the much more serious matter at hand. Taking a breath, the ice maiden looked over to Karin and, in a massive 180 from her previous antics, drew herself up and settled into a fairly stoic expression. ”However… Even I can admit when I’m wrong and I’ve taken things much too far. Karin, for what it may mean to you, I am sorry from the bottom of my heart.” Well. That was certainly a huge shift in expression.
And then Jeanne had to try and shift things and turn the tables on Kisara thanks to Elliot dropping his own bomb on her, making her tilt her head back and . ”Hah! Can you blame a woman for having a little fun? And Isaac’s so much fun to mess with! And hey, if Maia’s upset with that then it means she doesn’t know I mean nothing but good natured teasing.”
Then she turned to Elliot and flashed him a grin. ”Also I hope you know this means war ’Princess’. Maybe not now, maybe not tomorrow, but I’m getting you back for this.” Uh oh.
Meanwhile, Sol went over and grabbed Alicia, digging claws in to get a good grip before yanking up. The liquid dragon was lifted bodily off the ground, and the dragon spirit in turn flicked his wrist hard. With a snap the Mercurialdramon was suddenly filled back out from melted blob to proper dragon shape, with Alicia shaking her head wildly. “Ugh… someone get the plate on that semi…?” she asked blankly.
”We’re in the Digital World, remember Alicia? Kisara was causing all sorts of shenanigans.” Sol answered her. Alicia just grimaced and shook her head one more time. This was just not her day, was it?
“Uh… okay so what’d I miss while I was just lazing about?”
