He turned and scanned his surroundings. The laboratory was a somewhat large one, being circular in shape and having only one small window. Plenty of marble counters took up the space, as well as dozens of shelves and bookcases covering the whitewashed walls. Books, papers, quill pens and inkwells, along with countless glass vials filled with multi-colored liquids and mixing bowls brimming with indiscernible ingredients cluttered up the counters and shelves. Menacing-looking tools of surgical use gleamed from their stands on the walls. The one window served as a skylight, allowing natural light to filter into the room. Temptation's gaze fell upon the small bundle the alchemist had left on the counter. He stepped up to the marble island and freed the small, glittering clump of amethyst. He glanced to the left and saw a large bowl filled with matching purple stones. For several seconds, he felt panic rising as he realized he was at a blank as to what to do with the crystals. I could crush them, but that's exactly what the alchemist needed. I could try to destroy them in a harsh chemical mixture, but I don't know which ones to use, and all it would do is dissolve anyway. For crystal energy--or really, energy in general--cannot be destroyed or suppressed; it can only change forms and substances, be manipulated, even, but whatever happened to the crystal, its essence of the energy would be the same. Desperate, he finally came to a decision. I'll bury them somewhere--somewhere none of Fear's goons can ever find them. Then they won't be able to use them. And I'll free the prisoners while I'm at it. He found a satchel and stuffed all the crystals he could find in them. As he did so, he glanced over at some mixing bowls containing cookie batter, presumably what the alchemist was going to mix the powdered amethyst crystal into. Temptation briefly berated himself for not bringing any more bottles of the antidote with him. They would have been quite helpful. "Don't worry about what you can't change, just keep doing what you need to do," he muttered to himself. He quickly made his way back down the tower. Now to find a fast horse.
Hm, it's mainly the names, and how all the characters interact based upon the relationship their names have.
*waits for bulletin on progress*
Ah yes, the names. That sort of happened randomly when Tigress named the first character Temptation, then I liked the idea so I named the second one Joy, and then we kept up with the theme.
Haven't had to try it yet.
Yeah, seeing all the new characters emerge has been fun.
That's okay. I'm a very patient person. *isn't a patient person*

Awesome. Glad you've enjoyed it. Got a favorite character?
Lol. Still haven't had to try it yet. I'll just let you know when I've done it.
