This was just great, isn't it? Somehow the observatory is left in a power outage, and along that, everyone is locked inside! Roy wasn't sure how the observatory managed to get into a lockdown, he hoped it can get fixed relatively soon. There were so many dangers and risks that came with them being stuck inside- such as shortage of food, medicine, and most importantly no way to get out. Roy wasn't claustrophobic, and it was just by the Flame Alchemist's luck that he had his flame alchemy. Once orders were handed out to all the groups, Roy used his small flame like a candle, weaving his way through the dark building to be lead to his room.

Roy had candles stashed in a drawer. They were old fashioned candlesticks, but they would work perfectly for his group to pad around and search for more candles. Without another thought, once he was in his room- he ripped the drawer open, and pulled out four candlesticks. Without another sound, the male padded out of his room, using his flame as a source of light to lead him back to the grand circle.

Once the bobcat re-entered the grand circle, the male placed the four candle sticks down on the ground. With a snap of his claws, the male used his flame alchemy to light each candle, emitting more light to the area. "Versaillespalace! Cass! Onision! Beverley!" The Lunar Lieutenant called out with a booming, commanding voice, ears flattening to his skull. "Come over to me and grab one of these candlesticks! We need to search the rooms in the observatory for more candles- I know others have some in their rooms. We need all the candles we can get our hands on, we need to get the observatory lit up with light as much as we can. Also, don't feel bad about taking the candles- people can replace them later on if they wish."

Came the cold, mocking tone of Oni as he arrived at the scene when he was called, taking the candle shakily. How was he supposed to hold this? Maybe he could put it in a lantern and hold it like that. Yeah, that sounded better that holding melting wax, thanks.

"Why not find some lanterns? I saw a storage room down the hall, we could find some glass vases and make lanterns out of it." He suggested quietly, moving to stand beside the three-legged feline with cold blue eyes.

Despite being here for months and months, it's still hard for Roy to wrap his head around other abilities. Abilities that also included fire, like Versailles using her mind to control fire. Roy has grown so used to alchemy, it's been proven to be quite the challenge to watch others control elements without much tax. The laws of alchemy are driven into his brain, and it's hard to work around those laws after years and years of following them. He couldn't help it but blink in confusion as the panther's hazel eye began to burn up, heating up, and eventually making making a small flame in her pupil, that shot out of it, jumping onto one of the wicks. Not that long after, her makeshift flame consumed one of his flames, and left the wick. His blue eyes watched the floating flame's every move, watching it dance over to it's controller, and float beside her. Roy had to fight the urge to speak up and question how she did that, as this isn't the right time for that. I'll ask her later, once we aren't in this mess, He thought to himself as he gave the panther a firm nod at her comment, before his ears pricked up at her question.

Shoving his thoughts away from her ability, the bobcat focused on her question for a moment. Honestly, Roy didn't really think of checking storage rooms(there has to be storage rooms, without a doubt), he was quite glad that Versailles brought that up. "Good point, there should be some storage rooms either in the Bunker or the underground complex. We should check those for any extra candles before going through members rooms."

"What the fuck do you think this place is, a dungeon?"

As soon as those words made it's way to Roy's ears, the first thing he thought of was the Fullmetal Alchemist. During his time in Amestris, Roy rose the ranks of the military relatively quickly. He was around 29 years old when he became Colonel. He was in charge of a unit, which meant he was a Commanding Officer to subordinates. He was also the commanding officer to the Fullmetal Alchemist- who was only twelve when he joined the military. The last time he saw Fullmetal, the kid was around 15(almost 16) and his little brother Alphonse(who was much nicer than Edward, definitely didn't have an attitude like Fullmetal) was 14, turning 15. He remembered Fullmetal having quite the temper, was stubborn and strong-willed, he wasn't afraid to be hostile towards his authorities and could be quite selfish and self-absorbed. That comment that came out of Onision's mouth, it just sounded like something Edward would say, he swore he almost heard it through Edward's voice. He had to think for a second, snap his head to look at the almost fireball and remind himself that who he's looking at isn't Fullmetal. He's already mistakenly called Bastilleprisoner Fullmetal, it wouldn't be good if he called someone else it too.

"If you aren't going to take this seriously," The male snapped with an authoritative tone, "Then you're more than welcome to sit this one out." After all, this is Suiteheart's and Margaery's child, this won't be the first time he scolded them. All he could really wonder is where this child managed to pick up the foul mouth from. "But if you want to help regarding the situation we're in, you better loose that attitude, am I clear?" He commanded as his gaze locked on Onision for a moment, eyes blazing with authority and no room for an argument.

Lanterns would be a good idea too, actually. Roy mentally added it to his thoughts, reminding himself to grab any lanterns when going through the storage rooms.
