(( well hi there ))

scree. SPOILERS AHOY and something like 5-11

[lostapprentice]

[The Resistance has located Luke Skywalker: this much has been determined by the First Order. Spurred on by the renewed threat of the last Jedi (and at Kylo Ren's insistence, Skywalker's new protege as well), the master of the Knights of Ren has been officially assigned the task he'd longed to complete. This means more resources, more soldiers, more focus, and best of all, more freedom in how he completes it.

But this also means he's even more isolated than he was previously, only sending the occasional transmission to the Supreme Leader and the rest of the First Order, when he'd found new leads or needed something. He's also been very careful to not garner any unnecessary attention as per the Supreme Leader's orders, despite his own feelings about walking about without the mask he feels is his true face. He knows better than to argue with Snoke over something so minor.

That said—even with lightspeed travel, the galaxy is a large place, and approximately two months have passed without much of a clue. General Hux has occasionally suggested he return to more useful duties until they gather more information, but Ren's insisted that he can find Skywalker, he only needs a little more time—

So here he is, on some backwater planet where the exchange of questionably legal goods and information is common, Force strangling some poor ruffian in a back alley who was unfortunate enough to not have the information he sought, simply out of pure frustration at his lack of progress. Nobody will miss him anyway, Ren thinks to himself when he thinks of Hux's admonishments over his recklessness and temper.

His sense of the Force has been dampened over the past two months, too conflicted over what occurred on Starkiller Base to be able to truly calm himself and focus—which means he has no idea how close Han Solo has come to him without him even realizing.]

[OOC: AU where Kylo didn't kill him, but still hurt him enough to disable him or something?? I won't accept dead dads >:(

Let me know if this is cool!]

11 - more like "I saw you existing young man"

[notthissithagain]

[The Resistance has located Luke Skywalker. And just like that, all hope is supposed to start streaming back into the galaxy like a brand new day. Or something like that. Hard to start believing in that sort of thing, even if years of association and one very Force-sensitive kid (not to mention mother of said kid, and uncle of said kid) later convinced you the weird old Jedi ways actually were a very real thing.]

[The Force being real, Jedi being real, that's one thing. Luke being found equaling the day being saved, the First Order blown to hell... that? Too hard to swallow.]

[Because Luke just being around wasn't going to automatically fix everything. Wasn't going to jog the trooper kid out of whatever comatose state he'd fallen into, or suddenly change the minds of all the other idiots still marching under the Order's flag. Or...]

[... or bring Ben back.]

[He didn't want to think about that. He hadn't. Not for years. There'd always been some slim hope the boy was still in there. Somewhere. All while dodging gangs and smuggling rings supposedly superior to his skills, listening to Chewie yell about this and that, he'd ignored the possibility there wasn't anything left of his son.]

[The whole lightsaber through the shoulder thing sort of put a damper on the denial.]

[Just lucky the big Wookie had been in a position below the walkway to grab onto a leg when he'd fallen. More than one life he owed his friend. More than one incident they weren't going to talk about for a while. The injury wasn't as bad as it could have been, all things considered, but even so...]

[... Even so, you needed some space to breathe for a while. Keep a lower profile than usual. Sort some things out.]

[Maybe it's fitting to be in a cantina on some backwater world. Blending in. Looking as down and out as everyone else here, nursing whatever it was they had in front of them.]

Somewhere in between "training" and "threatening", probably

[payingfordeliverance]

The problem with Luke Skywalker being aware of your status as an ex-Sith, Break thinks, is that then Luke Skywalker gets it into his head that he can send you his problem students.

Which, yes, okay, there's really no better place for them to go. Break lives the hermit life on a planet so far removed from everything that it doesn't even really have a name, he's damned hard to kill, and if there's anybody who can clobber the Dark Side out of arrogant young teenagers, it's him -- this is the price he pays for having walked both sides. Ah, well. If he were to be completely honest, it secretly pleases him when he's given a juvenile delinquent to terrorize. Hermit life is pretty lonely. That this one is Skywalker's own nephew, though, is worrisome.

He knows the history.

"Now, now, Mister Ben -- or are we Mister Kylo today?" Xerxes can't blame him for that, he used to be a Kevin. "If you get too angry at it, you're only going to make your own life harder, you know?"

"It" in this case is a training exercise that involves a large pile of smooth, round-ish rocks, which Kylo Ben here is supposed to be stacking into a tall, balanced tower by way of the Force. Kylo Ben is making faces like he wants to Force Choke the rocks, Break has noticed. Gee, they sure did get off to a bad start when Break waited until he was sleeping, took the small ship he arrived in for a joyride, and then left it somewhere and claimed to forget the location such that Kylo Ben is now quite stranded. Who'd have thunk.

fun time

[lostapprentice]

Ben—no, Kylo Ren, damn it—doesn't bother dignifying the stupid question with a response. He hates that he's here at all, thinks he should already be by Snoke's side, but he knows he needs to be patient. It's not something he's terribly good with, but he won't disappoint his future master. No, he just needs to wait... and bide his time... and—why the hell should he be wasting his time on stupid exercises like this when he's already proven himself to someone even better than Uncle Luke?

The 13-year-old's temper gets the best of him (as usual), and instead of stacking the rocks like he's been told, he tosses them in every direction haphazardly with his powers, not caring about the consequences.

"What do you know?!" he says angrily without looking at his new 'teacher,' his fists balled tightly.

[payingfordeliverance]

"All sorts of things you're going to need someday, bratling."

So says the guy who hasn't used the Force, not even once, since the kid turned up at his doorstep. Just now, he's perched on a nearby wall, a half-full teacup in one hand. Break will show off his own powers when he is good and ready to do it, but learning Kylo's personality has come first, and generally this requires refreshments.

"You're on a direct line to end up like me someday, you realize," he continues conversationally. "Assuming no one tosses you in a lava pit first."

If that doesn't scare him into at least paying attention, nothing will. ...the idea of ending up like Break, not the lava pit.

KIDNAPPING N SHIT

[zombiedad]

[Whoever's taken them, they must be pretty powerful to nab both an ancient archmage and a dark Jedi (in training?), and possibly pretty ballsy to put them both in the same cell. Meryl's come to in worse situations, but he still doesn't particularly appreciate the way his head is throbbing. Or the handcuffs keeping his arms behind his back.

He's aware of Kylo Ren tied up somewhere behind him, but he doesn't know much about him. He remembers something about a glowing sword, but he doubts their kidnappers have let them keep anything useful...

The old mage grumbles and pulls at the handcuffs. His magic is still sluggish - from the blow to his head, or some sort of antimagic field perhaps - and they're metal, so he won't be breaking them physically. Well, time to assess the rest of the situation.]

Are you awake yet, boy?

yaaaay

[lostapprentice]

[Whoever did this will suffer, is Kylo Ren's first thought when he opens his eyes, most of his body aching from wounds both old and new. Whoever their kidnappers were, they didn't waste the opportunity to snatch him while he was still recovering from his disastrous fight on Starkiller Base. His hair is sticking to his face uncomfortably, held there by drying blood and sweat, but he ignores his physical problems and moves to sit up regardless. As expected, there's nothing on him that might assist them, but not as expected, Ren finds his powers and senses limited in a way he hasn't experienced since he was a small child.

He turns his head at the question, teeth gritting at being called a boy despite clearly being an adult, regardless of whatever age or power his fellow captive has. Even the Supreme Leader treats him with respect.]

Mind your tone.

[Not that... he can do much at the moment. It's more of a mumbled comment than a real threat, with the bonus effect of answering Meryl's question.]

[huxceptional]

This week was just getting better and better.

Oh no, it wasn't enough that the Resistance managed to blow up his base that he spent years constructing. Nor was it enough that he had to rescue Kylo Ren from said base before he exploded along with it. No, none of those things were enough. Apparently, they also needed to be shot down from the sky and land in some backwater planet with more of his men dying from the crash.

Wonderful. Oh, and he was stuck with a still healing and angry Force user.

Luckily, the only not horrible thing about all this, a few of the stormtroopers did survive and Hux already sent them to gather supplies as they tried to figure out how to get off this planet. They either needed to somehow repair their ship or find a new one, maybe send some sort of message to the First Order to pick them up if it came down to that. Whichever was the easiest to achieve.

He lost track of Ren a while back, but he figured that he was out scouting the area or doing whatever he does. Something with the Force. Hux figured that he would be fine anyway and would return to the site of their crash eventually.

In the mean time, Hux sat by the bonfire that the stormtoopers created, as it was the only source of heat they had for the time being. He pulled his greatcoat tighter around him and tried to ignore the wound that was bleeding on his side. It wasn't terrible and he wasn't in any immediate danger, but it still hurt. Hux just didn't want to make a big deal out of it, especially when he had to give orders out.

He wasn't completely alone, as a couple of stormtroopers were keeping watch just a few meters away, but no one was really close to him in proximity.

[lostapprentice]

Ren had wandered off both to get time away from the others and to make certain there was no one to notice them on the ground, even though he was still injured significantly. In front of the stormtroopers and Hux, he kept his stride even and his posture straight, but as soon as they were out of sight, he let the exhaustion show. His patrol was made with a slight limp, but he didn't allow himself to slow down terribly much—they were down half a squadron, and Kylo Ren had to pick up their work, since Hux wasn't the type to step forward and do it himself. He needed to be there to give orders in case any of them came back, anyway. He had a more strategic mind than Ren, who tended to focus on a single goal at a time.

It was strange how for once nothing negative about the general came to mind, but he was too preoccupied with other thoughts for petty insults.

His patrol done and nothing of significance found (though he did note some animals for potential food, if it came down to it), he returned to the makeshift base camp, his strides even but slower than his usual pace. As strange as it was for the troopers to see Kylo Ren without his mask, their gaze only went to him for a moment before they returned to their lookout. Though Ren hated it, his helm had to be left behind on Starkiller Base, which meant the still-healing red streak across his face was obvious to any who saw him. He tried not to think about how it might be seen as a sign of weakness and his defeat as he sat somewhat heavily next to Hux.

"We're lucky the Resistance hasn't already tracked us down to finish us off," he said, quietly enough that only the general would be able to hear, but without looking at the other man. "Perhaps they weren't aware of who was on the ship."

[huxceptional]

There was definitely a risk for keeping a bonfire, lit and burning for everyone to spot where they were. Whatever species inhabited the planet could find them and attack, not to mention anyone that might be searching for them. However, they were going to freeze without it. They just had to risk it and Hux had a blaster on him if it ever became that bad. It was also a reason why he had two of his soldiers out and patrolling.

Hux looked up at Kylo when he returned, noting the red mark across his face. It looked rather painful, but he figured that there was no point in bringing it up. Ren lost the fight against the girl, but he wasn't about to start an argument with him while they were stranded. No, that could come at a later time when they weren't relying on each other to survive.

Although, it was almost strange for Ren to talk to him like this without his mask on. No voice modulator to make him sound more threatening. Honestly, Hux was surprised to see him unmasked for the first time back when they were talking with Snoke. He definitely looked less menacing now, but he was still no less dangerous. Hux could admit that, only to himself though.

"Count what little luck we have left." Hux figured that the Resistance wouldn't blow up their ship without knowing that they were part of the First Order. They probably didn't know that the ship had the highest ranking general and the dark Jedi on board and thus just assumed that shooting them down was enough, but he'd rather not chance it. They needed to pull together and leave as soon as possible.

"Some medical supplies were salvaged from the crash. Patch yourself up." Hux said suddenly, although he didn't look at Ren either. "Don't think I didn't notice the fact that your wounds have been hindering your ability to even walk." There weren't that many supplies left and Hux wanted to save them for more grave injuries, but making sure that their strongest fighter was in a better condition was also vital.

eyebrow waggle

[reyofsunshine]

This was a terrible idea.

A really terrible idea.

Sure, Rey was no stranger to terrible ideas in her life, but this one certainly took the prize. Unfortunately, Luke's reluctance to do anything was exceeded only by the utter necessity for someone to do something, and if that someone had to be her and that something a terrible, awful idea, then so be it. The fact was that she did need a teacher, and well, she'd gotten an offer from one Force user in the galaxy at least. But Rey wasn't about to just surrender to Kylo Ren and give him what he wanted. Oh no, if this was going to happen--if this had to happen--it would be on her own terms.

It was almost embarrassingly easy to capture him, really. The hardest part was combing through Resistance intelligence to predict where he might be going, and after that it was a simple matter of flying the Falcon there and waiting.

... With a gas mask. And a close eye on a few specific read-outs on the console.

As it turned out, Kylo Ren was not immune to poisonous gas. And on a related note, Rey was capable of estimating the appropriate volume of poisonous gas to fill the Falcon's cabin with that would effectively knock out Kylo Ren without killing him. Both of those things were at best informed guesses and thus were quite satisfying to find out for certain.

One hyperspace jump later, and Rey with her new "cargo" were home.

rubs hands together

[lostapprentice]

He should have known, really. That it would be a trap, that there was no way she was drawing him out just to have a chat or to accept his offer right out. But Kylo Ren was reaching a frustrated point in his own training, and he wanted an apprentice of his own badly enough to dare to hope. He thought he'd be able to fend against whatever she had in store, but he didn't expect her to use a malfunction on his father's ship as a weapon against him, of all things.

Future objective: Make a mask with proper filtering system.

Kylo Ren woke up sluggishly, sprawled awkwardly against a familiar floor and soaked with sweat. There was a crick in his neck from the awkward way his head lay on the floor, but that was the least of his problems; he was still feeling the effects of the stupid gas, wheezing through his mask and his limbs half-numb as he tried to push himself up enough to at least sit and take in the situation. His helm was almost suffocating, honestly, but he wasn't willing to take it off at the moment, both because it would take even more effort and because he wasn't about to trust that the girl (or someone else) wasn't about to point a blaster at his head and fire.

Supreme Leader would berate him later for this in his own way, he knew. His words may have always been encouraging, lacking harshness, but Ren knew there was a danger behind the disappointment. He couldn't afford to let his weaknesses get the better of him, or Leader Snoke would eliminate them for him.

hons gently

[reyofsunshine]

Kylo Ren was waking up sooner than she anticipated, which was a bit annoying. But, then again, now that she'd finally landed on Jakku, Rey thought it might actually be lucky that he did. She certainly didn't like the idea of dragging him across the desert like a pile of scrap, and she'd left her speeder back at Niima Outpost--not that it would still be there after all this time. Rey could only hope someone traded it whole for a handsome number of portions instead of ripping her baby apart for scraps.

But that was neither here nor there. Right now she had to deal with Kylo Ren.

Her prisoner.

"Get up."

She nudged his arm with her boot, keeping her voice as hard and commanding as she could. Ren's lightsaber she'd long since removed from him, but he was by no means not dangerous, and that was why she had her blaster pointed at his head.

"And take off that mask, you won't need it."

[It's strange to be back at Empatheias, especially since some of his few remaining friends mentioned that he's been gone for over a year. A lot has changed, new cities, new technology, new people...

No Bucky.

Steve lets out a low sigh, but he does his best to stand up and put his focus on the task that's been assigned to him. He's adjusted to a 70 year change back home and he can do this now. It helps to know that this won't be forever and that a group of people are waiting for him back home.

Not to mention, he'll definitely find Bucky again.

With his familiar shield strapped to his back, he sees his partner already waiting by the entrance and he hurries over with an apologetic smile.]

Although he does wonder if many of these trinkets are actually still here and in one piece given their age, he'll nonetheless do his best to complete the task assigned to him.

He really has no other objectives right now. Although he would prefer to spend all of his time attempting to find a way to return home, he's hit a bit of a dead end. Perhaps learning more about this world by spending time out in it will help him gather the information he needs...

Speaking of assignments, though—it appears his assigned partner has arrived, a few minutes after the agreed-upon time, and he turns to watch Steve as he approaches. Well, he's not complaining. It could have been like Hank, and Connor would have been left standing here for at least a good forty-five minutes.

His face and voice are definitely humanlike enough to fool most, but there's a very slight hint of an artificial buzzing behind his pleasant tone, and the blue circular LED on his right temple is another hint to him being something else.]

Correct.

[People don't usually want to shake hands with androids, but it's not as if he's unaware of the custom, so after a glance and a brief moment of hesitation, he takes the offered hand and shakes it. ... it's pretty clearly got no real character in it, as he's neither done it before nor does he have much in his program about it.]

I'm certain we'll be able to locate the items within the day, if they're still here. I've been observing the area, and I've noticed signs of clawed animals of some sort and recent movements within the ruins.

[Although he's not quite the android he was when he first activated, Connor is nonetheless all about completing the objective first and building relationships later. Even being in this world for a little while hasn't helped him much with small talk.]

8U!!

[boldsimplicity]

[A large carnival in a mostly peaceful and modern city, such an event is expected for the natives and the people that have been brought here from various worlds. Almost everything from a traditional carnival can be found here-- rides, games, food, and of course, a haunted house. The volunteers have went all out in decorating the building, as it's the main attraction and something to bring a little more excitement to this city.

The setting is simple, a group of 8 people are only allowed to enter at once. The workers say it's easier to scare people when it's a smaller amount and they want to give people a good fright tonight. They also want to encourage the group to work together, since no one can leave the building until all 8 individuals are at the exit. Of course, easier said than done, given the branching paths and the fact that the group is split in half in the very beginning... not to mention the almost mazelike structure of the building.]

[breaksthemold]

[He has to save Rose.

It's the lone thought that keeps him going, his singular motivation, even though Ethan would like nothing more than to just close his eyes and rest. But Rose, his baby girl, his daughter, is waiting for him... even if she's been torn apart by those monsters. It doesn't make any fucking sense, but he'll find a way to save her. He has to, there's no way about it. That's what a father does.

So, even though his limbs are sore and his left hand still missing a couple of fingers, he sets his exhausted eyes on the familiar, cursed village. He's just retrieved the second flask from that crazy bitch with her dolls, but that's only half of what he supposedly needs. He doesn't understand, but it's the only lead he has. A small fragment of hope in this fucking nightmare.]

And this nightmare will end. [He says quietly to himself, but still alert enough to his surroundings. Who knows what sort of freak may appear out of nowhere? He knows now to always have a gun ready on him, even if it's just his trusty handgun for now.]

average... sure

[noblegarnet]

[Ferran has to assume this is another dream—whether it's a reflection of an ancient past, a distant location or simply another nightmare. Judging by the fact that he's taken on the monstrous full moon form that he detests, along with the bleak surroundings and distant sounds of screams and gunfire, though, he's betting on the latter. Worse, he seems to have been robbed of the ability to glamor himself, and his too-long fingers grasp his necklace as he flutters from roof to roof, his moth wings scattering dulled but glittering dust.

He hesitates to approach the ruckus for some time, but when things seem to quiet down, he makes his way towards the shaded area across the suspended bridge, his curiosity taking hold. For a dream like this, he'd expect to have met someone by now, whether he was trying to avoid others or not...

If Ethan happens to look up at the sound of branches shuffling above him, the first thing he's likely to notice are the enormous red eyes blinking down at him, glowing against in the dim light of the overcast day. Pale wings are spread out between the crooked branches, and his watcher's limbs are far too long and thin for a person of his size—although the lightness with which the winged being seems to have perched would tell Ethan he wasn't anything normal, anyway.]

bad dad of sad lad, jamjar style

[chimericalclaw]

Everybody needs a little villainy to spice up their life. The basics: 6'2", with clear care put into his appearance, Zekarion holds himself with confidence but gives off the sense of someone thoughtful, generous and open-minded: the right kind of person you'd expect to have the connections needed as the CEO of an international company. This is usually bolstered by the aura of charismatic magic he emanates on a regular basis, but who knows whether that'll work or not. :) The name he gives to anyone who asks is Altius, and he will (gently) protest at any other address.

The setting can be whatever, feel free to pick and I'll roll with it 👍

⬬ introductions

[Wherever Zekarion has ended up, it's utterly unfamiliar to him in a way he couldn't have expected, even given the idea of Spirits attempting to pull him away from his goals. That is to say, whatever mundane information gathering he's doing at the moment is strained, with a level of tension in his posture that even his impressive self control can't hide. There's an edge to the vaguely polite smile he gives anyone who approaches.]

All of this is quite something, isn't it.

⬬ tasks!

[After his initial anxiety has faded into more of a low dread and a fully internal conviction to go back here he came from, he starts going about whatever normal life may be here. Gathering supplies, shopping, searching for tasks or work—whatever's needed for him to make his way into something resembling power that he can wield towards the aforementioned goal. He'll do it without hesitation, but that doesn't mean he can't make a remark or two about it to whomever's working or gathering or shopping alongside him.]

I haven't had to start from nothing in a long time.

⬬ oh no somebody help

[The first time active danger makes itself known—maybe even the first few times—Zekarion does not use his power in any discernible way. Monsters, natural disasters, unnatural disasters, whatever it might be—he'll play the role of the unarmed civilian who's nonetheless a leader of sorts, ushering others who can't fight away from the danger and, at times, even putting himself in harm's way to ensure their escape.

Knowing he can heal himself from almost anything does allow him to keep his secrets for longer, and a little injury in the name of that goal is hardly enough to deter him. Plus, it gives him the added bonus of gaining a positive reputation as someone selfless despite his apparent lack of relevant training or special skills.

He might be injured by the time someone approaches, or he might not. Either way, with authority:]

You can't come this way, it's not safe.

⬬ just kidding get out of the way

[Then there are larger threats. At some point, there's no way for him to avoid using his magic—or this particular danger has something he wants, and he's going to take it. Hell—maybe what he seeks is yours. Good luck.

The gleaming yellow of his eyes behind a black domino mask, the high-collared cape with pauldrons, the pointed metal of his gloves and boots—they all paint a decidedly different picture of the man. When the thin jet-black blade materializes in his hand and a sneering grin comes to his face, it's almost hard to see how this is the same person.]

I'm going to enjoy this.

⬬ pick your poison!!

other shenanigans; feel free to use the above scenarios or any game prompts or whatever and let me know, we'll figure it out!

Introductions

[sweepers]

[Wherever the hell they ended up at, it hardly mattered. It was all the same in the end. They were stuck here and there was no way to go back home... Yet. There was no way she was going to sit down and do nothing about it, after all. For now, she was just biding her time until she found a way, checking possibilities as they came her way.

It had been a week or two now, having -- mostly -- settled in enough to the locale when she came across an anxious-looking man searching for information himself. Choosing not to approach him right away, she simply studied him, gauging what to expect. A prim and proper guy who clearly cared about his outward appearance. Honestly, he reeked of authority. Not that she couldn't possibly know that firsthand, but she had seen plenty of authority figures in her short lifetime. It's all she ever saw while living with Carl. Corporate suits who ran the world as she knew it. All corrupt sons of bitches when it came down to it.

But even if she didn't approach him, he decided to make that move first. Simply glancing at him as he approached, she had a polite smile back, careful to examine for signs.]

It sure is. A little weird to take it all in, but I've dealt with worse than this.

[And then a beat.]

Why so tense? It's not the most ideal place to be stuck in, but surely not something to be so troubled over either.

[fortunatesea]

[Being forced to live in a regular society was not an easy adjustment for Morgana, especially in a town that's so far away from the ocean. Not that she hates being here, living amongst humans and being free from her duties at home, but there's still that part of her that yearns to swim through the waters once more. It feels kind of selfish thinking that way, maybe even childish, because didn't she get her wish? A chance to finally choose what's important to her?

....

Self-reflection is hard, but luckily this well-dressed man is here to bug. When you don't want to think about difficult things, you pester others.]

You will conquer this hardship. [She gives Zek the most unenthusiastic thumbs up in the world, but it's happening. Go, fight, win, Mr. Businessman that's definitely a human because he looks like one. Granted, she looks human as well, just... a little oddly dressed. With no shoes. A true heathen.]

As I am conquering mine. [She lifts her other hand that's carrying a bag of groceries. Yes, she is going to conquer dinner tonight.]

wildcardish;

[middaydream]

[As Zek wanders around the village, he'll eventually come across one peculiar scene. There's a garden, well, sort of, it's mostly a garden that's a work in progress. There's a fence and the ground's been tilled, but nothing is really growing. Maybe the owner just planted something or they're just really bad at growing things, but Zek will soon spot one young woman crouching on the ground and staring at one particular spot on the garden.

She's pouting, one cheeked puffed as she pokes at the small stem that's peeping through the ground. It's a sign of some growth, but it doesn't feel enough. Logistically, she knows that it takes more than a week for things to grow, but ugh it feels forever so far! Both her cheeks soon puff as she breathes in more air, eyes glaring down at the innocent bud.]

Grow! [It just feels important that she can do something like this. Grow flowers and vegetables and everything like that. If she can accomplish this, then... maybe there's hope for her friends back home.] You will grow and become pretty.

oh no

[laserguy]

[It really feels like the universe hates him.

He was supposed to find a way to control his powers, know the extent of them and everything. Professor McCoy even mentioned about crafting something to help him at least see until he has that control, but none of that matters anymore. He's not at Xavier's Institute. He's somewhere else, away from the one person that really cared about him, away from a place that was supposed to help him, trapped in a world that's unfamiliar and he can't fucking see just to top it all off. Scott wants to rip the stupid cloth off his face, but he can't, he doesn't want to destroy anything in front of him.

He doesn't want to risk hurting another person, like he did to his classmate back at his old school.

So, even though there's clearly danger around, maybe some giant monster attacking one side of town, Scott doesn't find himself caring all that much. Like a sullen and stubborn teen, he in fact walks towards the direction of that terrible screeching noise, with one voice managing to cut through all that screaming. It's a command that gets Scott to at least temporarily stop as he looks in the unknown man's direction.]

Yeah, who cares?
