FREE!!! Free at last, free at last, thank God, I'm free at last! So awesome. I mean no offense.. but I'm sure Casey is just as relieved. Also? That temporary flying spell is wore off by now. Eh, kinda liked part that for a bit. Never flew before. We've been testing it out every day, this tether thing. And now we're free.

Damn, I need to see you, you hot, wonderful, talented, beautiful pyrogirl of mine. I've missed you so much, not gonna lie. I thought of you the whole time. But.. I really need to see you in person, like right NOW. Are you still tied, or are you free too?

YES! Jess, it's been great...but I cannot wait to sleep nak alone again.

[Pretty]
And you. Are you free from Andy? I miss you, I want to see you. Once your poor sister is sorted out...freakin' angels.

Okay, just an OOC note. I'm cool with handwaving and having the Loki shows up for mind probe and evil sensing thing as requested by Cole and Parker. Could have happened maybe the day before or so. I think Penny would be there due to the tether, plus Ben and Andy also, as they're staying there til it's over. Not sure if Parker was present. Cole would have welcomed it, and it's cool if Erin didn't mind. He also has recording stuff if allowable, like a tape recorder and videocam (thinking that it's better to have something solid rather than hearsay, though there are 3-4 other witnesses).

Also, going from being told in the chat, the gaze isn't to sift through all memories, mostly just feelings and emotions at the time, intentions, thoughts, in addition to looking for any evil present (and not finding it since he's good). Intentions would be to just endure this vacation until he goes back to his life, mostly annoyance at the "he's evil" thing but not real anger about it, and also making sure penny feels comfortable and safe during this since he has a family too. That last part would have a "secret!" type vibe, he raised her in NYC just to keep her away from the mess and so she wouldn't be involved in it.

An extra idea is if Loki and Cole also talked. Cole would definitely understand about being called evil before their time, lol. I think it was mentioned that Loki can tell when someone is lying or not, or if there's deception. Since he is good at it, mwahahah Cole would have answered each question clearly. He'd also have probably given details about the point he had come from, how he liked doing his job to help other people, and fighting evil people. And probably that he moved on from Phoebe long ago, so that's not an issue either. The only real deception would be that he didn't outright confess to having a wife and kid, least not verbally, merely aside from saying he has his own life apart from all others in Lawrence, as he lived in NYC. REasoning for concealing it is more of a "I just don't want my family involved in that stuff, or to go through what I did with the sisters years ago when I first showed up, plus it's my way of staying away from them as per our arrangement" sort of for protection rather than any ulterior reasons.

Then when Loki left (I'd assume after telling them his assessment, as well as stating that he definitely isn't an evil guy, and anything else Loki would ike to mention), Cole would have an "See, I told you" type look (and with shaking head lol) at the others before walking into another section of the room, like the kitchen, or to the couch or something to pick up a book. He maybe wouldn't want to look at anyone for a while. So.. that's all I can think of. Questions, comments, ideas for post-probe reactions, or anything to add? Also, Erin, if I missed anything or need to change a part, let me know and I can edit. :)

Okay, so I have a daughter named Jade from back home. Yes, and she knows full well the Halliwell paranoia about me, and that we went 20 years without me turning evil And a wife too. Oh, and no. It isn't Phoebe. Surprising, I know So those of you who were present, you do still remember Loki's scan didn't find any evil, right? Okay Parker, test passed, now you guys stay away as soon as Penny is free

[Allana]
Hey, could you heal her? She probably isn't hurt too badly. I just want to make sure she's perfectly fine, no bruises, or cuts, or anything else those trees did. She will be in my room getting ready for the tests. Ariel, Ben, Andy, and Penny are also present, though Penny is for the tether and the two guys are by choice. Um, maybe you can even get a sense of me not being evil, but then Loki already did that

[Group Filter; Cole, Penny, Andy, Ben]
Penny, daily reminder time: call your family. Okay, that's done. Now just a little announcement. I've come to a decision. Jade is going to stay here in the room. Just need to get a fifth bed. Gonna be more crowded. But again, not my choice. But first Ariel is going to test her. Ben, she wants you there for that too, so you being here already certainly helps. Allana will also need to heal her, hopefully. But after that? When she passes, and I know she will, just as I did, I'll get to setting her up in here. No mind probes for her though, I'll forbid it

holy.... what the... TESSA! If you were trying to give me a heart attack? MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

((pretend this was posted last night, post-untethering, handwave, handwave...))

Has anyone considered the possibility that this place might not be a town at all, but just a part of some sick bastard's bizarre snowglobe collection?

Guys? I just found a fully functional bowling alley. Something new to do; score!
