Disruption in general is standard in the Nexus. Sometimes it comes in the shape of a minor inconvenience and sometimes it's an actual crises. Sometimes it's something in-between, a quirk that seems like it ought to be harmless but is in fact terribly traumatic to those who run afoul of it.
I've found myself stuck in clothes I didn't ask for, and I've found myself in the midst of a blizzard that lasted months. I know there were darker things that happened before I ever arrived here, as well, though I'm unclear on all the details.
I've given the children protective runes to carry with them in the Nexus. I could make you one, as well, if you'd like. It wouldn't be much, little more than a luck charm with a shielding spell you can activate for a short time, but if it would give you an added sense of security...?
That...that would be very kind of you. To have a being of apparent power tell me that I was his to do as he pleased with, in a body that was not my own, which I could not transform...
I never want that to happen again.
Intellectually, I know that we do have an anti-violence field.
Emotionally, this is a situation I have been in before, and one in which resistance would have cost me my life at the time. One of the Senators treated me as a personal toy until Soundwave did...someting I don't quite understand to his mind, and made it impossible for him to tolerate even the sight of me. He still managed to hurt us after that, but he couldn't do it that way, and then Soundwave's brother got involved, and that is how Soundwave ended up in debt, but with legal title to me and to two of my sibs.
