When Roy made his way over to attend this meeting, the possibility of the observatory loosing power didn't come to mind. The bobcat made his way over as usual, taking a seat in his regular spot as he looked over towards Bastilleprisoner. Ears pricked, the male listened intently to the Astral Seraph's words, his attention mainly caught at the mention of the buddy system. So, he's leading a group alongside Versaillespalace. Roy didn't know the panther that well, actually they probably haven't spoken once before, so this should certainly be interesting. His blue eyes scanned the crowd for the panther momentarily, thinking of the members assigned in their group- Onision, Beverly, and Cass. Just like Vi, Roy didn't know those three that well- without a doubt he's about to walk into this group blind. Though, he hopes to get it relatively under control- there was probably a reason why he was paired with members he didn't know. Who knows if he'll trust any of them that much, but hopefully the buddy system will do it's purpose.
Roy couldn't help it but feel silently surprised that he didn't hear his name again during the meeting. He would have sworn Bastilleprisoner would have made some kind of comment directed at his capture with Jacob. If it weren't for everyone's interventions, Roy would have surely burned the Typhoon Dealer. He didn't realize how much his frustration and outrage drove him back there. It was all thanks to Riza for legitimately carrying him out of there- she pulled him out of the tense environment. While it was terrifying to see Riza so upset with him, at the end it helped him notice how wrong he was. He wasn't going to capture again, that's for sure.
Finally, the differences between Starrynight and Bastilleprisoner were finally beginning to show. Roy remembered being pissed beyond belief when Bastilleprisoner continued with Starrynight's peace talks, after the trouble Tanglewood cost them. It didn't feel like Bastille, and didn't make sense at the time to start an alliance with them. It felt so much like Starrynight's actions influenced the young leader, and he hoped it wouldn't sway him more in the future. And now, the future is upon them- Bastille is handling this situation far differently with The Typhoon than what went down with Tanglewood months back. Bastilleprisoner wasn't even that mad at Carolina for killing a Typhooner(he wasn't mad either, the Typhoon are enemies after all), only reminding her not to kill future captures and gave her a promotion along with it. Bastille even captured two Typhoon kids himself- which caused the male to blink in surprise for a second. What the hell are they suppose to do with children? Most children are oblivious to politics and the world around them- they're going to babysit these kids while attempting to blackmail Pincher. Wonderful.
Unfortunately, Roy didn't get to think more on the matter. His thoughts trailed away when lightbulbs above blew out, the bobcat's head snapping upwards, sparks flying everywhere. What the hell is going on? He began to wonder, before the lights flickered and flashed, before everything turned to darkness. A power outage. He thought to himself, before he froze at what he heard next. Locks licking into place, echoing through out the observatory. Well fuck, He cursed to himself in his head, throwing his simple power outage out of the window. They were locked in too, this would have been fine if the lights just went out! The eerie silence from his groupmates didn't last long, as before he knew it, panicked voices began to fill up the dark room. Without another thought, the male quickly rose one of his front paws and snapped his claws, causing a spark to ignite. Barely any seconds went by as a small flame came to life above his raised paw, like it was a candle. It wasn't a huge source of light, but it was something. Roy wasn't about to transmute a large flame without knowing who and what he's nearby(they don't need another fire, this time there would be no way out). Hopefully this can lead him and others to some candles so they can light up the observatory, and then hopefully figure out a way to fix this mess.
