"Confiscated" means you won't get your stuff back. This TSA-approach doesn't make much sense in a world where there's just too many fauna and flora trying to kill you. I'd insist on getting everything back on leaving, regardless of what it is. And enough weaponry to survive in the meantime. These cutthroat "guards" wouldn't fill me with confidence for my own safety.
Yeah, ‘confiscated’ usually means ‘forfeited without return’. On the other hand, I can see why it might get a bit touchy to tell a Danrir their goods will be ... ‘impounded’. ^_^
“It’s okay. I have all my important gear microchipped.”
I think the weapons handed over voluntarily will be returned when they leave, but anything they find on the body searches will be taken. (like for instance, Nemi's hidden needles).
They should have asked for a check on the weapons though to make sure they get them back.
@A.Moose: Hopefully they'll get their stuff back! Lol. The party is mostly just trying to play by the rules of Caelune at the moment for Nemi's sake. :')
You gotta do all the checks. Remove shoes and socks, declare any personal meds, take your laptop out of its bag, don’t put Cain on the x-ray conveyor belt... and of course they’re EXTRA suspicious of everything on Mikey.
I hope they don’t confiscate Kylie’s charm, though :( We’ve lost it one too many times already.
The mental image of Cain setting off the metal detector just has me face palming and laughing XD poor Cain! An X-Ray would definitely confuse a LOT of people...
Let's just say that the checks aren't so rigorous, so Kylie should be fine~ it's just the one guy that's going to get a pretty thorough check... >~<
This particular Kijinni makes Jinn look positively tolerant in comparison! Also, I think I need to stop watching prison movies... My first reaction to the frisking of Mikey was cavity search!
I would say Kylie should definitely be concerned about the eventual and timely return of her Stiles! She might not want to tell them about its origin, but she doesn't want to lose it either, I would think. The others' possessions would also be important to them. I'm very concerned the group didn't question this further.
All in all they're not being treated very well. Is that just because of Mikey, or are all strangers viewed with this amount of mistrust?
Being busy might help stave off the madness that is 2020. Stay safe, Happy Friday!

Guess it was good timing Lyn joined up with them given everyone will be weaponless but him, since he's got his FISTS! XD
Lyn's definitely the one you want on your party when weapons are prohibited :D
I think that they're about to take his necklace.
Well, I would not agree to that - I would suggest storing it all... (oh, a Stiles original - confiscated)... =S
And don't worry, weapons aren't being confiscated here XD; otherwise Kylie wouldn't agree to it. That's her precious gift from the Defender after all!
(going back to my corner now where I belong)
Also, I'll be honest - writing this scene had me considering all the possibilities. :'D But this is a PG-13 comic (lol) XD

As for the madness that is 2020, I am just thankful you guys are still here and reading in the midst of it ;v;* thank you!
That said... Mikey must be careful with the power of ABS. With much power comes much responsibility.
