Nico heaved a sigh of relief when Raph's eyes faded to their usual bright-but-not-glowing green and smiled.
"Yeah," she answered, just as vaguely, before sobering again. "We should-- We should try to get out of here." She rose to her feet, brushing dead plant matter off of her long red skirt, and offered Raph a hand up. "I don't particularly want to hang around for round two with your reality's most terrifying compost heap."
She took a step back and her heel tapped against something metal. As she looked down to see what she'd kicked, confusion bubbled up from somewhere inside her.
"Oh," she said softly, almost distractedly. "That's...mine."
It looked like the Staff of One, but not the Staff of One Raph had seen her carrying around. This one was simpler, with a larger gold sphere on the tip, split in halves to reveal a stripe of silver lining, and the circle on top of that didn't have any jewel accents. Nico stooped to pick it up, still frowning at it like she wasn't sure what it even was.
"Anyway," she said, finally pulling her eyes away from it. "We should go. I think we're in some weird shared consciousness or something, let's just try really hard to imagine an exit and get going."
