Super Smash Quest - Story - Chapter 489: A Warped Tattle-Tale
Date: January 4th, 2008.
Trivia: Tournaments continually tried to be featured in this game, but they rarely ever went according to plan, and even when they did, it tended to be really boring. (Excepting that one time in Season 4 when things got really crazy.)
Metal Man (GM): Questers are at HQ. Currently the tournament's about to get started. Anyone else who hasn't already signed up for it should now. Additionally, people reading books would be at last finished reading them.
Dragoshi: *Already signed up and confirmed a while back, and has prolly' now finished reading the Assault Rifle book. Yayz. *
Kamui: *He was there of course, he signed up, so he felt obligated. He only wished he had used more time to hone his skills as well.*
Digifanatic: *Chilling out, maxin', re--ahem. In R&R, waiting for everything to be figured out.*
Aribar reaches the end of his book as he's heading to the tourney seating room...* "Hrm. This holy book was a little dry, but..."
Metal Man (GM): Dragoshi: The book you read will allow you to conjure up an Assault rifle and then strafe an enemy line, threatening all of them.
Deloth slaps his Cure book shut. "Phew... someone should make Cliff's Notes of these things."
Metal Man (GM): Metal Man is still in the R&R, looking over the disc. SIMBER is walking through the hallways.
SIMBER: "Hm. If I didn't know better, I'd say this whole disc issue was related to me in some way." He idly spins through data while walking, most likely seen by several Questers.
Digifanatic: "Oh?"
Dragoshi: *Prolly' walks past SIMBER as he goes to return the book and whatnot* "Hm?"
Deloth gets up and heads to the library to return this book, passing SIMBER on the way.
Metal Man (GM): There's a convenient book slot outside the library. SIMBER turns to both of you.
SIMBER: "The Void corrupted me to his purposes. That disc must be an uncorrupted object like I am. Therefore it really came from somewhere else. The only reason the technology is real is that somebody else already made it."
Deloth: *drops off the book and heads back through the hall, noting the others and SIMBER stopped there.* "What's up?"
SIMBER: "...And get this... without Magitek or any sort of foolery. So The Void was really just a giant plagiarist."
Aribar eavesdrops in on the conversation since he's also going to return his book.
SIMBER: "Of course, this could mean bad things. Whoever has this technology natively would be more powerful than The Void!"
Digifanatic: "Oh geez..."
SIMBER: "What was attributed to Atlanteans or Solarians, could just really be the works of somebody more advanced than we'd know. Of course, our records on such are spotty... I don't know exactly what world to look in. Do you have any ideas?"
Dragoshi: "I see."
Digifanatic: .oO(Why must information like this suddenly be conjured before what's supposed to be a time of relaxation and friendly competition?)
Deloth: "No, but if I come up with something, I'll let you know."
SIMBER: "Has to be something. If we don't look, we may never find out the missing chip, or at least, who owns this technology. Perhaps they don't threaten us because of their power... that only makes it a greater shame to forget."
Deloth: "Dunno. Maybe the library has something?"
Aribar hrms, thinking.* "I don't know... We could go to Hyrule and ask the Triforce possibly. Go to the Mushroom Kingdom and ask the Stars. Consult the Galactic Federation's databases, but I doubt they'd have much information..."
Deloth: "Wanna go check those sources? We could burn some time, if nothing else."
SIMBER: "The Triforce is not in one piece. The Stars? Possible... as is the Computer. Of course, you simply need to use the warp room for those."
Aribar: "I'm trying to think of other Smasher worlds where we could gain information, but besides those I've already said.."
SIMBER: "I will be waiting if you are willing to go and look."
Aribar looks about to the others.* "Any other ideas?"
Deloth: "Nope. Let's go hunting." *Heads to the warp room.*
SIMBER: "I know a number of high-tech worlds, myself. They might posses some data."
Dragoshi: "And what may some of those worlds be called, if I may ask?"
Aribar: "You're an AI of the Galactic Federation too, right? You could search them for information?"
SIMBER: "No. I am based here. They are based in their dimension. The worlds I know of which are significantly advanced are: Lylat, Mobius, Mute City..."
Aribar: "Ah.."
SIMBER: "Galactic Federation Home Planet... The world of X and Zero. That is about it."
Digifanatic: "Well...nonetheless, it's good that you bring those names up."
Metal Man (GM): The warp room has an easy list of coordinates. One would see the 'Mushroom Kingdom', and even a sublist of locations under that once you select it. Also, Hyrule, Galactic Federation, etc.
Digifanatic: "Well, I say it might not be a bad idea to try one of the higher-tech places, first."
Aribar: "I would imagine it would be easy enough to check all of them out. Just go there, ask if they have the information, and if they don't we move on."
Digifanatic: "Yeah."
Deloth: "Hrm... want to try Lylat first?"
Digifanatic: "Sounds like a good idea..."
Aribar: "From what I know, the Galactic Federation and... Lylat is Fox McCloud's domain... Both expand over numerous worlds and would probably have the most information."
Kamui: *sits at the side, dancing to the "Happy Happy Joy Joy" song, not looking much like he was happy doing it* (<--- joke)
Digifanatic: "Yeah, you're right...affiliated with Fox and Falco..."
Dragoshi: "Nah...I'd rather try Mobius. But, I'm outnumbered here." :/
Digifanatic: "We can go there second."
Deloth reaches over and selects Lylat.
Metal Man (GM): You select Lylat.
Aribar: "Sounds good to me. If we're wrong, we'll just waste a little bit of time."
Metal Man (GM): It shows Corneria as the main destination. Do you confirm?
Kamui: *stands to the side, just sitting there he watches on a moment, then brings a hand around and presses "confirm" for the hell of it.*
Metal Man (GM): The warp appears.
Aribar heads into the warp.*
Kamui: *follows on after Aribar.*
Digifanatic: *warp.*
Dragoshi: *Ker-follow.*
Metal Man (GM): WARP. You appear inside a building. Corneria's administrative one, in fact. An old-looking dog-man in a red army suit of sort salutes you.
General Pepper: "Hello, I am General Pepper, and welcome to Corneria. Normally I don't greet guests, but I've heard a lot about you... especially what you did to the vile Star Wolf group. What can I do for you?"
Kamui: *salutes in return, not really knowing the story at the time being but he kept cool and silent waiting for someone else to explain* ...
Digifanatic: "We come to look for information on a disc that we came across a time ago."
Aribar nods.* "Aye, we were hoping that your organization might have some data on it."
Dragoshi: *Also does a return salute, and stays silent, letting Digi and Ari do the talking.*
General Pepper: "Hm. What kind of disc, exactly? What kind of technology?"
Metal Man (GM): He walks over to a computer and begins typing.
Digifanatic: "Well, it's supposed to contain information on just about every kind of weapon imaginable..."
Digifanatic takes out his Dex to see if there's an image of the disc.
General Pepper: "Every kind... I need to know what's special about it. All planets here have some pieces of data on technology, but most of it is probably useless to you."
Metal Man (GM): The dex shows a tiny purple disc.
Dragoshi: "And various other things. It's apparently all the ultra-tech from The Void's era of convoluted madness...Without the Magitek and all that other idiocy."
General Pepper: "The who and the what? Never mind. Your mention of high-tech indicates that its only link to us would be here."
Metal Man (GM): He brings up a hologram of a dusty red planet named Titania.
Deloth: "Can we get there from here?"
General Pepper: "An ancient civilization lived there and built up the most powerful security devices known to man. They died off mysteriously. Their devices continue defending the planet. Even Star Fox can't get inside the facilities there. You can get there, but I doubt you'd be able to get inside. The defenses are as high tech as what you just spoke of."
Digifanatic: "Wow."
Aribar: "Huh. Sounds like it might be a lead, but if you can't get a force inside..."
Kamui: "Maybe a teleporter?"
General Pepper: "It's rumored there's machines with which you could acquire their technology inside, but our scanners can't penetrate their stealth fields and Star Fox himself was only able to fly on the surface... tried that, the teleporter blew up. It's got a field around it, it isn't going to let any unauthorized people through. And as we don't understand the language on there... well... yes. It's pretty much hopeless for us."
Aribar: "That probably doesn't give us much a better chance.."
Digifanatic: "Hmm...if nobody's there, is it ever possible that those devices will just run out of energy and shut down? The problem I see there is that it probably wouldn't happen in our lifetime."
General Pepper: "The devices are around 15 thousand years old, and have continued killing people all this time with unmatched efficiency."
Digifanatic: "Dang."
General Pepper: "It may be powered by our sun, which means it may last forever. Or near it. Even Andross avoids most of the surface. To make matters worse, though, his ghost has been sighted in the desert there."
Kamui: *scratches his neck* Where are there solar panels located?
General Pepper: "Solar panels? We haven't found any. They must have some other technology."
Digifanatic: "Well, if Magitek is long gone..."
General Pepper: "Similar machines to those on Titania have been found on the sun itself, but... that's the sun. You can't just go there! Magiwha? These things are purely technological."
Deloth: "Well... I think we need to head to another place. I'm not feeling like getting barbecued by automatic defense systems."
Digifanatic: "Basically a word used to describe old weapons that relied on a combination of technology and magic, that's all...it's eradicated now, though."
General Pepper: "Perhaps if you can find a link elsewhere and a key, then maybe you could take a look. Otherwise, several generations of pilots have flown to Titania... and never returned."
Digifanatic: "Out of curiosity, have things like asteroids and such blown up as well?"
Aribar: "Aye, it does sound like we may possibly be back later once we have talked to other leaders, but for right now... It does seem impossible.
Dragoshi: "Quite."
General Pepper: "Asteroids? Sure. The defense system blows everything up. I wonder if it killed the people who made it too..."
Digifanatic: "Huh..."
Kamui: *sighs, trying to think as to what they could do next.*
Metal Man (GM): The warp back is open.
Deloth: "Well, anyone ready to head to Mobius and check that out?"
Digifanatic: "Sure."
Dragoshi: "Yea, that sounds good."
Aribar: "Aye. Thank you for your time, General Pepper."
Deloth warps back, then changes the warp to Mobius once everyone's ready to go.
Kamui: "I got nothing." *he shrugs, then nods to Pepper before turning and walks off to the warp.*
General Pepper: "It has been a pleasure... I've always wondered what those defense systems were for." He salutes.
Aribar returns it and heads back into the warp.
Metal Man (GM): You warp out. The Mobius warp shows some interesting options. You see: "GUN Headquarters, Central City. Final Egg. Mystic Ruins. Angel Island. Little Planet" and "Casinopolis."
Dragoshi: "...Hmm..." *He tries to remember which place had the King Strider in it.*
Aribar: "I... Don't know where to go. I'm not very familiar with Sonic's world. The Mystic Ruins, Angel Island, and Casinopolis don't sound very technologically advanced...The GUN Headquarters and, if Final Egg relates to Robotnik, might help."
Metal Man (GM): That part's off to the side in "Ruined Section of Central City."
Kamui: "Let's check out Final Egg."
Dragoshi: "I say we check out Central City...Well, more specifically, the ruined section in which we found the King Strider. Though, Kamui's idea also works."
Deloth: "Sure."
Aribar: "I place my vote on the GUN Headquarters. I'd rather not deal with the back-stabbing Robotniks if possible.
Deloth: "I second it."
Digifanatic: "Makes sense."
Kamui: *Is ready, waiting for the people to make up their minds as he already had his made.*
Aribar: "Mmm... Majority rules it seems. *Confirmed.*
Metal Man (GM): A warp to GUN HQ appears.
Dragoshi: *Enter.*
Kamui: *turns, making his way in to the warp.*
Digifanatic: *Hit it.*
Deloth enters the warp.
Metal Man (GM): You open the warp and run in. You appear inside GUN HQ. It's a big room full of monitors showing parts of the world/city with a giant picture of the world. A gray-haired man with one eye blue and the other yellow turns to look at you.
GUN Commander: "And who the devil are you people?"
Aribar looks to the Commander.* "Apologies for the unannounced entrance, sir. We are the Questers. We've come here for a bit of information."
GUN Commander: "Why should I give you information? I have a hard time protecting this base from the likes of Shadow the Hedgehog."
Kamui: "Perhaps we could help you."
Aribar: "Well, we're more on...Sonic's side than Shadow. I suppose the both of us have a common enemy in that regard."
Deloth: "We just need to know if you know anything about a disc, sir, then we'll be on our way."
GUN Commander: "A disc? No, I don't know anything about a disk." He looks to the area with people and monitors. "Hm... more intruders in Sector 7... send reinforcements." *He turned the the Questers.* "I'm afraid I can't read minds, so unless you have a clear idea of this disk, I'm going to have to ask you to leave."
Dragoshi: *Brings up the picture of the disc via the Dex* "This disc, specifically. It contains information on very high-end technology."
Digifanatic: "It's believed to be created by an ancient society."
Aribar: "It is supposed to contain incredibly advanced information by some remarkable civilization. We have turned up few leads as to who it really belongs to."
Kamui: -.- "Ok then, can't say I didn't try helping you."
GUN Commander: "Hmf. Gerald Robotnik's technology is more advanced than anything possibly on there. If you want to really check it, you should go up to the ARK. This is where our defenses are coordinated." *He yells at another guy to send an armored brigade to another area.*
Deloth: "Alright. Thanks for the tip."
Aribar shudders at the mention of the robot-creating menace.*
Dragoshi: *Hisses at the mention of Gerald.*
Metal Man (GM): You have gained: Coordinates of the ARK. You may warp there once you hit HQ.
Deloth heads back to the warp.
GUN Commander: "This blue armored guy is taking all my time right now. He's doing stuff with flying cars. It's really making me mad..."
Aribar: "Blue armored guy?"
Dragoshi: .oO(...Blue armored guy. ...Hoo boy.) *Just heads back into the warp.*
Aribar: "Hazarding a guess... Metal Sonic?"
Digifanatic: *heads to the warp and is ready to select 'ARK'*
GUN Commander: "Who? No. A Blue man. With robotic toys. He's been attacking us now that Robotnik is gone. Claims he's with some 'Klein Toys'."
Kamui: *looks towards the warp, then over to the Commander* "Last chance, you want any more help or not?"
GUN Commander: "He's nuts, that's what he is. There's no such thing! I don't need help from random interlopers... my men are holding their ground."
Kamui: Suit yourself. *he said in a calm tone, as he turns around and heads in to the warp.*
Aribar: "... Umm...Interesting. Well, it appears as if most of my colleagues have left, so... I apologize for wasting your time, Commander." *Enters zee varp.*
Metal Man (GM): The camera glances, showing men with armored suits, rocket launchers, and other ballistic weapons pretty much holding their own. Then you're back at HQ, with no more answers than you had before.
Dragoshi: "I still say we check out that part of Central City that had the King Strider in it. Maybe he could be of help." *of some help.
Aribar: "I know nothing of him, but if you know someone who could help us... That's more of a lead than what we got from that GUN guy."
Dragoshi: "Yea, he really wasn't of much help aside from the coordinates to that ARK place... So, let's go to that ruined part of Central City then...If there aren't any objections, of course."
Kamui: *Sigh* Fine.
Digifanatic: "Okay, then...good thing I didn't confirm anything." *rejects decision and changes selection to Central City.*
Aribar: "None here...As long as he isn't some psychopath who will eat us."
Digifanatic: "Don't make me think of images of 50-foot versions of Kirby."
Dragoshi: "Nah. He's actually an ally of ours we picked up a while back while we were searching for parts for that reality-fixing device. The first one, I mean."
Digifanatic: "Now that would be scary."
Aribar: "Ah.
Dragoshi: "Eh. Just carefully place a few mines under it. It'll prolly' go flying. I mean, sure it's a giant pink marshmallow, but it's still, well...A pink marshmallow. That eats everything. Can't forget about that."
Digifanatic: *confirms Central City.*
Metal Man (GM): The warp opens.
Dragoshi: *And, into the warp we go.*
Kamui: *makes his way through warp, again.*
Aribar does that crazy enter-warp thing.
Digifanatic: *LEEEEET'S go.*
Metal Man (GM): You appear in a large room before the King Strider.
King Strider: "Come again, have you? What can I do for you today?" It's a...giant shiny dark-ish square-ish robot guy with a crown.
Metal Man (GM): This is some sort of control room of sorts. Looks scientific.
Aribar: "Ah, greetings, sir." *Just stands back this time, feeling a little out of place in such a technological place.*
Dragoshi: "Oh, nothing much. We just need info on a disc..." *Shows the King Strider a picture of the disc* "It contains very high-end technology from the era of the convoluted insanity of The Void."
Kamui: "Say that three times fast."
King Strider: "I'm afraid I don't know anything about that. I'm mostly a GUN experiment, some of my fellow robots were corrupted during an incident involving him though..."
Aribar mutters, "I wonder if E Li Three is among that list... Course, don't even know if he's from this world."
Digifanatic: "Yeah..."
Dragoshi: "...Ah, yes. I remember that. Do you have any ideas on potential leads...Aside from the ARK, I mean. That commander guy back at that HQ already told us about that." :/
King Strider: "Gerald Robotnik was involved with it, The Void would probably know what his technology would look like."
Kamui: "Perhaps we should check the ARK now."
King Strider: "Additionally there is the Eggman, but he's been gone for so long... you wouldn't have anything to look at."
Kamui: *shrugs his shoulders* Perhaps not, but that's just my gut feeling.
Dragoshi: "Yea...That and he'll apparently make himself known to the world when the time comes, apparently. ...Or so this thing says." *Looks at the Eggman Locater device, if he still has it.*
Metal Man (GM): It says the same thing as always.
King Strider: "If you knew any other Robotniks, maybe those. I don't know... I hardly know what goes on outside my area."
Aribar: "Hrm...Whatever happened to Ivan Robotnik?"
Dragoshi: "Ah. Fair enough, then. Well, thanks." *Calls back a warp to H. *HQ.* "He was apparently fake or something."
Metal Man (GM): A warp to HQ appears.
Dragoshi: "Like George. The Void's convoluted insanity is weird like that." :/
Kamui: *turns and walks off in to the warp* "How many times are we going to be doing this?" -_-
Aribar: "Figures; the universe conspires against the thought of a good Robotnik.." *Warp enterage.*
Dragoshi: *Heads into the warp and goes to select the ARK once everyone's through.*
Digifanatic: *back to HQ.* "Hmm...what's the closest thing to the Master Emerald that doesn't involve quests to balance ourselves?"
Metal Man (GM): The ARK pops up, and is selected. A warp appears for it.
Aribar: "Mario's Star Rod and such, Hyrule's Triforce... Umm...I can surprisingly think of few such artifacts."
Dragoshi: "...Quests to balance ourselves was the Ultimate Emerald Digi. And thing was fake."
Digifanatic: "Sorry."
Dragoshi: "'Cause it was on Genetia, which was pretty much another one of The Void's lies."
Digifanatic: "I knew it was some Emerald. It's been nearly six years..."
Dragoshi: "No prob. I just remember some of the most pointless crap sometimes." :/
Digifanatic: "Same here. That wasn't one of them."
Metal Man (GM): The warp remains open.
Digifanatic: *warps.*
Metal Man (GM): You appear on the main room of the ARK. Oddly, it lights up for your appearance.
Dragoshi: "Like that one time when The Man was talking about how we left him only one body, then Leviathan, Julian and I agreed on how bad that sounded. Levi was all 'You do not say things like that, if you want to be taken seriously as a villain.' And Julian was all 'That all sounds...INCREDIBLY GAY'. And, then-Oh, screw it." *Enters the warp.*
Julian: *And Julian's there too! Must have hopped into the warp when no one was looking.* "Yo."
Metal Man (GM): The monitors light up and suddenly display images of people. In fact, of all sorts of random old scenes. They flip through, random voice clips filling the room chaotically.
Aribar looks about, keeping a hand on the hilt of his blade...*
Kamui: *Is simply following behind the group, ignoring the multiple voices for now.*
Metal Man (GM): You see Zio talking of an alliance. Metal Man punching his hands through a door. Kuja killing Questers with Flare Star. Eggman and the dancing Charleses. Denon at the head of his flagship, the Archellago. The Void blowing up Saga, juxtaposed to Yurie's description of it. Smithy laughing, Kales leading people to the ruins of the Stadium. It just continues on and on and on and on.
Dragoshi: *Looking at Eggman and the dancing Charleses* "...By god, that was fucking crazy."
Metal Man (GM): The Man walks by, The Anger gets killed by Julian, Sha'fol holding his sword over Atlantis, Bowser and Dracula telling the Questers they were in a reality show... The Stadium frozen over with ice; Skyhigh taking aspirin. E Li Three laughing as bananas blow up Questers.
Dragoshi: "Now to figure out if this thing has any info on the disc we're searching fo-..." *Looks at the part about Bowser and Dracula* "...Okay, what were they smoking.
Julian: "You like to hear yourself talk, huh?"
Metal Man (GM): Razor fleeing from Metal Sonic with Aribar; Charles speaking with Ivan Robotnik, referring to him as 'The Master' Doopliss appears everywhere. He apparently liked to travel. It continues and continues until the events begin to speed up and blur together.
Dragoshi: "Yea. Bad habit of mine." :/
Metal Man (GM): Zooming out it begins to show the outline of a nondescript being, who looks vaguely human, nothing else.
???: "I already got here first, Questers. Why are you looking for me? There is nothing to be found."
Dragoshi: "Anyway..." *Coughs, and looks at the being.*
Julian: "Wasn't aware we was lookin' for someONE."
Metal Man (GM): This being speaks with modulated voices from the movies. It's impossible to tell who it is.
Aribar: "Greetings... Whoever you are. We are here for information."
Kamui: "Oh here we go."
Dragoshi: "No. We weren't. We were merely looking for information on the disc. But, whatever." *Just looks at random mysterious person number whatever.*
???: "Your search for information involves me. But I am a very busy person. I can't just help you. I've been watching all this time."
Julian: "You're not another 'The', are you?"
???: "No, no, I haven't been directing it. Only a madman would direct events as they have occurred. Ha ha ha, no, I despise them. They were all very poor inventions of The Void."
Digifanatic: "Heh..."
Dragoshi: *Snrks.*
???: "You want information on a disc which I know about. But I can't give you that for free. I'll tell you that The Void stole some of the ideas on it from me, that I will."
Julian: "So who are you? An' do you know anythin' about the disk we're lookin' for?"
???: "Who am I? I'm not telling you. Know about the disc? Why, I know everything. I've watched it, after all!"
Metal Man (GM): He/she/it laughs.
???: "If you want the disc, then you will have to do me a favor. There is a man I dislike named Dr. Proctor. Don't you hate him too?"
Digifanatic: "As a matter of fact, we do."
Aribar whispers to the others, "Who's that?"
Dragoshi: *Would make a comment about how if this person knows everything then they'd know that the whole mysterious all-knowing person thing is getting old. ...But he doesn't. He just nods.*
???: "Kill him and take his object, and bring it to me. I will then tell you some information. Also, do not tell anyone of this display you just saw, or I won't visit you again."
Julian: .oO(Here we go again.) "What's the price? Got it. Anythin' else you'd like to tell us while we're here?"
???: "Just don't go mad. That's too typical. I hate that. You want something else? Well, if you like side-quests..."
Metal Man (GM): He/she/it chuckles.
???: "There are a number of high ranking bad guys in your midst, that you may encounter during missions. If you defeat them I will give you rewards."
Digifanatic: "Sounds like an interesting scenario."
???: "It's harder, but I tire of watching bad guys get away alive. They must all die!"
Digifanatic: *muttering to the fellow Questers* "But is this too good to be true?"
???: "There is a purpose in what I do you will never understand, for I know nothing because I know everything. All very scientific, you see."
Julian: "Sounds like somethin' we was gonna end up doin' anyway, but I like the sound of rewards...So, you want us to go take out Dr. Proctor an' anyone else that gets in our way? Then you'll tell us about the disk?"
???: "Most definitely."
Aribar: "No offense, but you sound like a loon who wants to look like he's controlling us."
???: "Then there won't be any bad guys to steal it from you, you see. And then to say they control you and it and everything."
Dragoshi: "Those kinds of people are annoying."
???: "Control you? I wish. Then I would take out my personal enemies. But I don't control you, I couldn't. I can't enforce anything I say, you could ignore everything I said and I'd be helpless. I'm miles and miles out of range."
Dragoshi: "I see."
???: "Besides, you came to me! I didn't care. I would have kept on in silence and you'd have never known or been effected. I use this disguise because I despise becoming involved in one of those big things where guy X helps you and then is evil and then you must kill him. There's other idiots for that which you've, thankfully, killed."
Deloth: "Smart man."
Dragoshi: "Quite."
Digifanatic: .oO(Okay, now it sounds like he IS one of them.)
Julian: "Yeah, we've gone though this before, if you couldn't tell...but hey, you don't turn on us, we don't turn on you. Simple as that."
???: "In fact, if I find any of them, I will point them out so you can kill them a lot."
Kamui: "Thankfully"?
Julian: "Solid."
???: "I can't really turn on you. I mean. This is the most I can do." The monitors flick on, then off, then back on again. "Rawr. Rawr. I'll melt you with possible epilepsy."
Aribar crosses his arm... Somehow. He really does not like this new predicament.*
Kamui: "-_- Yeah, ok."
???: "Then again, if you looked away I would be robbed of my potential epilepsy powers. Plus these monitors are made of glass and these buttons on the dash can turn off the sound and monitors entirely..."
Deloth: "So, uh, about the disc..."
???: "Kill Doctor Proctor and bring his shiny object to me and you shall receive what you need to deal with it. The Void stole some of my ideas, those ideas helped make that illegal compilation disk there. There's others, too. If you keep searching they might have help for you too. His so-called Atlanteans and Solarians plagiarize multiple advanced cultures across the multiverse."
Dragoshi: "...That convoluted interdimensional bastard." *Facepalms.*
???: "Yeah, I know. I tried to stab him, but my fork was too many millenia worth of lightyears away to reach. Maybe some day we'll meet face to face."
Julian: "So we was played for chumps. What else is new?"
???: "You were intelligent in finding me?"
Dragoshi: "...Yes. That would be rather interesting should that hap-...I'd consider it luck, really."
???: "Because you could have instead gone for Gerald's recordings. They sound like wailing emo albums."
Deloth: "...Huh?"
Dragoshi: "Crawling in one's skin with unhealable wounds included?"
Deloth: "What's an emo?"
???: *Mocking voice* "Feeel my despair and lack of ravioli... feel my inability to save humanity... feel how I am unable to simply destroy people who get in my way... 'cause I'm a dumb scientist who accidentally created a world-destroying abomination..."
Digifanatic: "Kinda like that, Deloth."
Dragoshi: *Snrks.* *Which turns into chuckling.*
Deloth: "...Remind me never to meet one, then."
Kamui: *sits in a corner at the moment, yawning silently.*
???: "The Void was very serious of himself and his lack of sanity. And these cardboard guys you wind up talking to aren't much better. Work with me and the cardboard bad guys will fall over. Oh. Watch out though, Doctor Proctor's a jerk. Uh... anyway. If you want to find him, my long-range sensors show him trying to find his way through some ruins of a company named 'Datadyne'. Yeah."
Digifanatic: "That's a familiar name..."
Aribar: "Well... I suppose we have nothing else to do here besides embark on a quest given by a questionable creature... Of course, long range sensors help."
Deloth: "Datadyne, Datadyne... I've heard that before."
Julian: "Thanks for the tip." *Coordinates?*
???: "It's in that realm where every day is like a bad science fiction novel, and every five seconds a giant wago--,err, space ship--nearly runs you over."
Dex: "Coordinates appear to be the realm where Joanna Dark comes from. Earth in some future time. They have been re-entered into the computer."
Julian: "Who?"
Dragoshi: "...Eck, Datadyne? As in the place that involved that Easton jerk?" *He would know something about Easton being partially related, right? If not, then strike this thing from the records.*
Deloth: "Thanks for the heads-up... um, mystery person. You mind if I call you Question Mark? It's a lot more memorable."
???: "I do not mind. I prefer it to mysterious annoyance from beyond Saturn."
Dragoshi: "'K."
Metal Man (GM): The warp back appears.
Julian: "Whatever you say." *And we'll be warpin'*
Digifanatic: "Bye."
Deloth: *Warpinate!*
Digifanatic: *warp.*
Metal Man (GM): You warp back to HQ.
Julian: "A'ight, so let's go kill us a doctor."
Deloth: "Sure. Heck, if you're ready to go, I'm still all suited up and prepared."
Metal Man (GM): The warp to the ruined Datadyne HQ opens up.
Julian: *Onward!*
Deloth: *Warp again! WHEEEEEE!*
Aribar: *Decides to take a New Years Resolution to never go into another warp again. And then promptly breaks it.*
Dragoshi: *Whee, more warps.*
Metal Man (GM): You warp to the wreckage of Datadyne HQ. It's night. There's a gigantic pile of rock and debris around, and a Datadyne sign on the ground.
Digifanatic: *What is this? The fifth one? No matter what, there he goes.*
Metal Man (GM): In the darkness, a dark scientist slowly digs through rubble.
Dr. Proctor: "No, this one is not it... I require the right corpse to resurrect the great evil of this place, so that I may finish my research!"
Deloth takes out his sword and creeps towards the scientist, staying low. One good backstab...
Kamui: *remains in the back of the group drawing his gun out he places a hand to the slide and pulls it back slowly and carefully.*
Dr. Proctor: "It's bad enough my reploid project only half-succeeded..."
Julian: *Julian waits for someone to blow their cover...*
Dr. Proctor: "Ah! Now I have it." He picks up a dead body, and then juices up that strange machine... ..he brought it here, too, and it has new Datadyne parts on it! "Now... I shall revive the picture of evil... Mr. Blonde... at least, the model which those aliens made so many copies of."
Kamui: *brings the gun around, aiming at the doctor he aims a warning shot off to skim right past Proctor's ear.*
Dragoshi: *Also waits. And if no one does...Well, he'll just have to use an orange grenade, huh?*
Metal Man (GM): He sticks it to the body, and turns around.
Julian: "Hold it right there, Doc."
Dr. Proctor: "Hmf. It's too late." He presses the button.
Metal Man (GM): *ZKZYTBTKZVTYTKZBT* A gigantic white flash fills the area.
Deloth stands up and sighs, going into battle position. Thanks for blowing cover, Kamui.
Dragoshi: *Readies his assault rifle, and sighs.*
Metal Man (GM): The flash subsides... ...and a tall man in a trench coat, white trench coat, with a Blonde Haircut, is now the only thing standing there. He looks around, very angry.
Mr. Blonde: "Some one has threatened the man who revived me. That someone... shall die. For the Skedar do not like... would-be assassins."
Julian: 'The who?"
Metal Man (GM): He takes out a weird gun and charges it up. It turns blood red. He aims it at Kamui's head and fires!
Dragoshi: "..."
Deloth: "The Skedar? What the hell?"
Metal Man (GM): Kamui leaps out of the way as a gigantic explosion takes out where he was standing. He fires again. It's less powerful though. Yes, Kamui. Kamui is pegged. He fires again. His gun shoots its energy cell out onto his foot. He growls.
Julian: "You done?"
Deloth takes this opportunity to bum-rush Mr. Blonde and slash at him once.
Mr. Blonde: "No. I am Mr Blonde. You will all die."
Dragoshi: "..Okay, screw this." *Pulls out his own gun, the K7 Annihilator, and opens FIAR on Mr. Blonde.*
Metal Man (GM): He uses his bulky mass to try to counter Deloth. He blocks Deloth entirely.
Kamui: *brings the gun around in his hand, and fires off a pop shot for Mr.Blonde's head.*
Julian: "You ain't the first one to say that, you ain't gonna be the last." *Julian charges, rears back...CANNON BLOW!*
Dragoshi: *And, again...*
Metal Man (GM): It sails through his head like it isn't there. You both hit him. He reels back at both of you and charges like the 7-foot-tall freak he is. Threatens both of you.
Julian: *Oh no!*
Dragoshi: *And, Dragoshi dodges by dancing.*
Metal Man (GM): Julian is knocked backwards and takes damage.
Digifanatic joins in on this insanity! He's got the chance, so he might as well...Hyper Beam Matrix to Blondie!
Metal Man (GM): Mr. Blonde shoots at him as he rolls backwards.
Digifanatic: *Super Blah!*
Julian: *Keep on rolling!*
Metal Man (GM): He dodges the Hyper Beam Matrix at the same time. Julian rolls out of the way. Mr. Blonde reloads and then goes to just punch Dragoshi in the face with the gun.
Dragoshi: *Punched in the face for base damage, whatever that is.*
Metal Man (GM): He punches Dragoshi in the face, stunning him and dealing damage.
Kamui: *brings his gun around placing it back to it's holster. He then makes a rapid hand movement, both hands, making a jujutsu sign. He then brings his hands around, and fires off a fireball at Mr.Blonde.*
Metal Man (GM): Mr. Blonde is hit by the fireball. He attacks back with a laser.
Dragoshi: *Dragoshi's response? Shooting Mr. Blonde in the face.*
Digifanatic decides to try an Icy Kick to Blonde after all those fire and explodie moves...
Metal Man (GM): Kamui is lasered.
Julian: *Julian shakes off the cobwebs and gets back on his feet! He moves in while Mr. Blonde is distracted and attempts to land a rib-shattering Liver Blow!*
Metal Man (GM): Mr. Blonde is shot in the face. Then punched in the ribs. Only... ...he doesn't have any. Still, full damage.
Kamui: *drops to one knee, before standing back to his feet* Tough cookie, huh? *He brings his hand around, and with a swipe of his arm fires off another fireball.*
Metal Man (GM): Digi also hits him.
Deloth reels back and hopefully catches Mr. Blonde in the chin with a Bomb Kick!
Metal Man (GM): He reloads, charges, and then fires a big exploding shot at Deloth's attack. Deloth leaps out of the way as the ground behind him is vaporized and hits Mr. Blonde. Mr. Blonde fires again at Deloth with less power.
Julian: *Julian then brings up his Golden Gloves, weaves, and tries to land a stiff hook to Mr. Blonde's jaw!*
Metal Man (GM): He is hit--but he has no 'head', it seems to be a hologram. You hit the base of his neck, which is something... else, but hit. Deloth evades the shot. He fires at Deloth yet again.
Deloth does a quick backflip in place, dodging the shot...
Dragoshi: *Anyway, Dragoshi then goes to spew acid in Mr Blonde's neck base or something.*
Metal Man (GM): Deloth is hit.
Deloth: *And gets shot by the second. Oh well.*
Digifanatic hangs back a little bit to try to do a Dex scan (no module stuff) on Mr. Blonde.
Metal Man (GM): He is hit by the acidic burst.
Julian: *Julian reaches the end of the arc of his hook's follow through...then reverses direction and tries to land a second one!*
Kamui: *brings his hands around, as he fires yet another fireball at the Mr.Blonde*
Dex: "...DING! Mr. Blonde. HP: 200. He is extremely tough and violent. Rumors say he's really an alien in a clever disguise. He possesses lots of guns."
Deloth whips out his sword again and takes two more slashes at Mr. Blonde's neck!
Dragoshi: *Dragoshi then jumps up and decides to come crashing down the annoying MISHTAH BLONDE.*
Metal Man (GM): He is hit by Kamui and Julian. He dodges Deloth. He is hit by Aerodrill. His attack is delayed, he fumbles getting a weapon out. He is hit by Slice 2. He finally gets out the big gun. It's... a gigantic shredder-like device.
Mr. Blonde: "Eat lasers, puny men."
Deloth: "...Oh, crap, he's got a Cuisinart!"
Metal Man (GM): He revs it up and it shoots lasers EVERYWHERE, threatening everyone. He has a really thick accent too.
Deloth: *VEROWWWWWWM KZZZZT ow.*
Metal Man (GM): All of you are blasted away, Power Rangers style, by the onslaught. And he now has to reload.
Mr. Blonde: "Ah ah ah ah ah ah. Take that, puny men."
Dragoshi: *Quickly gets back up, cricking his neck* "Hmph."
Mr. Blonde: "I will shoot you all full of holes."
Deloth shakes off the burns and runs forward to hit Mr. Blonde with a pair of Fire Spins!
Kamui: *brings his hands around, forming another set of hand jutsus. He then forms a number of ice shards between his fingers which he launches at Mr.Blonde.*
Metal Man (GM): He is slowly reloading. The cartridges to it are about the size of size 15 shoes.
Dragoshi: *Twisted smile on his face* "Yea, yea...Whatever." *Tries to steal something offa Mr. Blonde.*
Metal Man (GM): Which is about the size of shoe he wears. He dodges the theft. He's hit for base damage by fire twist, Kamui misses.
Dragoshi: *Then, how about an assault rifle to the gut?*
Digifanatic lowers his eyes and just stares down Mr. Blonde--and then turns his keyboard from his back to the front and pulls a tidy little sonic explosion, Beatles-style (A Day in the Life)
Metal Man (GM): He dodges Deloth's second fire Twist. He fails to dodge Digi's Day in the life. He is hit by the Assault rifle shot. He is STILL reloading.
Dragoshi: *MOAR THEFT ATTEMPT.*
Deloth flips backwards, using the extra space to pull off another Bomb Kick! This is FUN!
Metal Man (GM): He keeps the weapon away from Dragoshi. Then he gets kicked in the face.
Dragoshi: *Let's try again. :p*
Mr. Blonde: "Don't make me get ugly."
Digifanatic then runs in and goes for a quick Fire Punch just to stay hot, no pun intended...
Metal Man (GM): You grab the end of the weapon. He holds onto it...
Kamui: "Too late."
Dragoshi: "Aren't you already ugly?" *Twisted grin.*
Metal Man (GM): ...And turns it on with Dragoshi trying to steal it. Threatens only Dragoshi.
Dragoshi: *...Oh shit, Katamari.*
Metal Man (GM): Digi's fire punch hits. Dragoshi gets shredded and lasered, and launched far away.
Mr. Blonde: "Touch my weapon again and I keeel you."
Digifanatic: "That's it..." *runs over to Dragoshi and offers a Mushroom.*
Metal Man (GM): He himself is looking rather weak from the beatings. He sees Digi running towards Dragoshi.
Dragoshi: *Still alive, as he gets back up takes the mushroom, and eats it, still smiling EVALLY.*
Digifanatic: "I take it you'll want this right about now?"
Mr. Blonde: "I have had enough of you little heelpers." He chucks his weapon at Digi from behind.
Kamui: *brings his hands around again, as he fires off a nother number of ice shards.*
Metal Man (GM): Digifanatic is KO'd for a short time. The weapon then bounces into the air and explodes harmlessly. He dodges Kamui's failure attack.
Digifanatic: *OUT COLD.*
Mr. Blonde: "Is that all you got? You are patheeetic."
Kamui: "-_- Today is not my day."
Dragoshi: *Twisted, hateful expression.* "You know, I tire of your existence. Let's fix that, shall we?" *Smiles, as he zooms over to the annoying blonde dude and blasts Mr. Blonde in the stomach or something.*
Mr. Blonde: "Ah ah ah ah ah."
Deloth: "Will you SHUT UP?!" *Two more slashes to the neck!*
Metal Man (GM): He is hit in the stomach and begins shooting sparks.
Mr. Blonde: "Uh-oh. Mr. Blonde is going to eeexplodeeee."
Metal Man (GM): He suddenly explodes, engulfing the entire area in fire and debris.
Deloth: *Sore loser.*
Kamui: Oh crap. *Gets ready to die.*
Dragoshi: "...It's better than having to listen to-WOAH!" *...Yea. Definitely a sore loser.*
Digifanatic: *Can't do anything about it.*
Dragoshi: *And, Dragoshi survives.* *Albeit in pain.*
Kamui: *Ish on the ground, twitching and burnt. OUT!*
Metal Man (GM): Dr. Proctor is scorched by the explosion. He gets out and shakes his head at all of you, surveying the exploded wreckage.
Digifanatic: *Still standing...or conked out on the floor...whatever. He's still alive.*
Deloth: *A few blisters... okay, a LOT of blisters, but I'm still okay!*
Dragoshi: *Shoots Proctor in the legs, because seriously.*
Dr. Proctor: "You want another piece of me? I can re-revive him."
Dragoshi: *Then in the arms, just because.*
Metal Man (GM): Dragoshi shoots at Dr Proctor. The Doctor laughs as he uses his device to heal himself.
Dragoshi: *Actually, not the arms. In the head, instead.*
Metal Man (GM): Digi is awake now.
Deloth aims at said device with ANOTHER two sword slashes! GINSUUUUUUU!
Dr. Proctor: "Your attempts to kill me are sad."
Digifanatic: .oO(We've got to take him out of his arena.)
Dr. Proctor: "I only want to help the world. But if you want to die, then..."
Metal Man (GM): You shoot him repeatedly, slash at the machine, chuck rocks at him, even drop a small car on him.
Digifanatic: "I don't think you qualify as a help."
Dragoshi: "How does helping the world involve the idiocy you're doing." *idiocy.
Dr. Proctor: "I am helping to revive that which is dead. You merely want to kill everyone."
Dragoshi: "Some people should stay fucking dead."
Digifanatic: "Well, we're trying to kill the people th--yeah."
Dragoshi: "Don't you understand?"
Dr. Proctor: *Smiles* "But these people I revive are not really all that bad at heart if you get to meet them. Besides, my machine can change that."
Dragoshi: "I highly doubt that. No one can truly change."
Digifanatic: "Not sure if we feel like believing you."
Dragoshi: "'Sides, with some of the stuff you did earlier...Yea."
Deloth: *huff, huff, REALLY tired from the overdrive of attacks there* "Yeah... besides, you're on Question Mark's hit list."
Valentine Kilmer: *She appears via warpping.* "That's enough out of you questers. Your blood lust ends for now."
Dr. Proctor: "Why, all I need is to find the most evil being ever and invert their power to complete my research." He brushes a bit of dust off his forehead. "Who's what? I don't care what nobodies think of me."
Dragoshi: "...You idiot. It wouldn't be that easy."
Deloth: "Back off, Val. We're not finished with this nut yet."
Dr. Proctor: "I am studying good and evil. Currently, you are registering as chaotic stupid."
Dragoshi: "What if you get killed in such an endeavor?"
Digifanatic: "In your mind."
Dragoshi: "Also, that chaotic stupid thing is an artifact."
Valentine Kilmer: "I will not back off. All you can do is listen to him and accept it."
Dr. Proctor: "You tried to kill me and you saw how well that worked. My machine will heal itself and me as long as it is powered."
Dragoshi: "Put it away before you fucking break it. Heh. Some things can destroy faster than those that can heal."
Dr. Proctor: "I could re-revive Mr. Blonde, but I learned what I needed from him. He was much like you. He only died because there was only one of him there instead of six. Just as much as one of you vs. six of him would die. This also shows how the greatest Reploid Hunter is reduced to nothing by your multitude."
Deloth: "The greatest WHAT?"
Dr. Proctor: "Therefore I believe you are not so much good but multiple, and by multiple you are enforcing chaotic stupid on the universe."
Dragoshi: "...What did I say about the chaotic stupid thing? Seriously. No one listens."
Dr. Proctor: "The real good guys would trash you in a minute, but I dare not tell them of you." He chuckles.
Valentine Kilmer: "...Sadly, I have no argument against that."
Dragoshi: "Real good guys?"
Valentine Kilmer: "Heroes."
Dragoshi: "Hmph. You sound more like an overzealous prick if you ask me."
Deloth: *tiredly* "And who ARE these real good guys?"
Dr. Proctor: "The guys who fight for right instead of fighting for fight."
Deloth: "We DO fight for right, you freaking moron. Where have you been for our ENTIRE CAREERS?"
Valentine Kilmer: "So you're saying that a hero could outmatch the questers, correct?"
Dr. Proctor: "Well, they go by many names. Mario... Link... Samus... the only reason they don't turn on you is because they don't know what you're doing."
Dragoshi: "Just like a broken record..."
Dr. Proctor: "The heroes outsmart their foes. In a fight they would win easily."
Dragoshi: "Hey."
Dr. Proctor: "Broken is not what I am, for I shall be telling them what you do and see how long you last against them. Hee hee hee hee."
Valentine Kilmer: "And are you calling yourself a hero, Doctor?"
Dragoshi: "Do you have anything that doesn't come in 'broken record'?"
Dr. Proctor: "I am a neutral interloper."
Dragoshi: "More like a fucking annoying interloper." :/
Dr. Proctor: "My experiments are to test good and evil."
Valentine Kilmer: "Enough, Dragoshi."
Dragoshi: "..."
Dr. Proctor: "I have revived good, and I have revived evil. I have inverted it once too."
Dragoshi: "Yes, as I have seen."
Dr. Proctor: "If I can find the true nature of it, and whether or not it is based on hearsay or reality, shall be determined when you next fight true heroes."
Valentine Kilmer: "Are you hoping to gain a balance of power over this, Doctor?"
Dr. Proctor: "No. I only have my experiments to do. I do not need power. It is a weakness."
Valentine Kilmer: "Of course."
Dr. Proctor: "One I have seen from this very battle. It makes the brain rot and the ability to have foresight decay into nothing."
Dragoshi: "Anything can be a weakness, actually. But that isn't the point." *Just listens.*
Dr. Proctor: "I am extremely strong in my ability to only defend myself instead of fight. It is weak people like Mr. Blonde who then die from weak people like the Questers."
Valentine Kilmer: "Weak in mind you mean."
Dr. Proctor: "Indeed."
Dragoshi: .oO(Not going to repeat the broken record thing.) "I suppose."
Dr. Proctor: "But I shall stop talking. For I am a broken record and my words are nothing. I should be dead because I apparently annoy the Questers and a mystery man. I will just allow my actions to speak for themselves then. Farewell."
Metal Man (GM): He vanishes suddenly, leaving behind a black poker chip. It smokes, like it was recently set on fire.
Dragoshi: "...Whatever." *Walks over to the poker chip.*
Digifanatic isn't touching it any time soon...
Valentine Kilmer: "...Inspect before touching it."
Dex: "Poker chip. It is... a used up smoke bomb device."
Valentine Kilmer: "I knew I should have came instead of having tea while assisting Dr. Light. Metal Man will hear of this."
Metal Man (GM): A warp back to HQ appears. You've managed to figure out the new thing to do: Find out what Dr. Proctor is smoking.
Dragoshi: *Walks over to Mr. Blonde's exploded remains...If there's anything left of them. >_>;;*
Metal Man (GM): Of course, he tells some truths, as will become painfully obvious at HQ... but... some things are crazy.
Kamui: x_x
Metal Man (GM): He exploded utterly. Dr. Proctor and Mr. Blonde were apparently wise to your stealing ways.
Dragoshi: *How annoying.*
Metal Man (GM): Kamui is just now revived from losing a life. Still missing a life though.
Dragoshi: *Oh well. Drag will just take the poker chip and head back to HQ, then. :/*
Valentine Kilmer: "Dragoshi. A word when we return." *Goes into the warp.*
Kamui: *jumps to his feet, looking around rapidly, then runs in to the warp.*
Digifanatic: *warps* "Man, oh man..."
Julian: *Julian was out getting a hot dog when the previous conversation happened, and is now at HQ. Yeah.*
Metal Man (GM): ...Dr. Proctor made good on his word. Metal Man doesn't need to hear about it, because he has a weird expression on his face when you return.
Dragoshi: "If you have something on your mind, Metal, then please do say it." :/
Metal Man: "...A weird man appeared and told us you went around killing people and cursing and ignoring logic and everything. I told him I liked to hurl shoes at people, but some of the Smashers heard it and got real mad. Looks like you'll be fighting them sooner than you may have planned. Several of them have challenged you, the Questers, to a battle as to who's the real heroes."
Julian: "What'd I do?"
Dragoshi: "No, it's more like what we, as a group have done."
Valentine Kilmer: "I was a moment too late myself, Metal Man."
Digifanatic: "They're actually believing that quack?!"
Kamui: *sighs, narrowing his eyes as he felt he was going to take the fall on this.*
Dragoshi: "Maybe he's right, maybe he's wrong."
Digifanatic: *is shocked that they'd listen to a nut like Proctor.*
Metal Man: "He didn't really need to say much, easily available recordings fill in the blanks."
Dragoshi: "I'm not really surprised by this thing, in particular."
Valentine Kilmer: "He's crazy, but I think he was right about the questers."
Julian: "Hey, he shot first. I acted in self defense."
Dragoshi: "...Oh well. Just another bridge to burn."
Metal Man: "Of course, they didn't agree if all the Questers were 'Chaotic Stupid' or anything, however they were intrigued by his point of 'the True heroes will win.'"
Dragoshi: .oO(Though, I have a feeling, that this is going to be a rather peculiar experience.) "Well, I don't blame them. That's also left me a little curious."
Valentine Kilmer: "So what are your plans now, Metal Man?"
Digifanatic: "That part I get, but the chaotic stupid is a low blow."
Dragoshi: "And it's a freaking antique, Digi. Don't forget about that."
Metal Man: "So you've got Mario, Pikachu, Star Fox, Ice Climbers, Kirby, and Meta Knight challenging you as a group. My plans? He tried to put something on me, but when I explained to him I hadn't gotten my required vitamin Hoyle yet, he gave up trying to understand me. I'm going to be watching for some world class fighting, myself."
Dragoshi: "...Again with the vitamin Hoyle? Sheesh, Metal. you must burn through a lot of cards."
Julian: "That's 7."
Metal Man: "I mean, think of it. Some of the best Smashers fight selected Questers to determine who's the best."
Dragoshi: "Sounds fun, actually."
Valentine Kilmer: "...I hope you know I will not support you Questers against the Heroes."
Dragoshi: "...Eh. I know."
Valentine Kilmer: "And next time, Dragoshi, watch your mouth."
Metal Man: "I will be the neutral party. Because about all he was able to come to on me was that I was insane. The Smashers tended to agree with him."
Dragoshi: "No promises, Val." :/
Julian: "This is sure to be a ratings-getter, though...I'll sanction it. Whoever can fight whoever, I'll broadcast it."
Valentine Kilmer: "Even the Brawler has more willpower than you, Dragoshi."
Metal Man: "Yes. Anyway. Good work looking for the disk. It appears SIMBER found some data to tell you about later."
Dragoshi: "Eh." :/
Valentine Kilmer: "If you want to mouth off and look like a fool, do it on your own time."
Metal Man: "And sure, Julian. I'll help comment on it. Er, commentary... yeah. Whoever wins, we can have some fun doing it."
Digifanatic: "I just hope today's events don't lead into a severing of alliance between us and the Smashers."
Dragoshi: .oO(Just as long as it doesn't end up as some idiotic 'Whoever wins, everyone loses thing'. Then it'll just get annoying.)
Metal Man: "Unlikely."
Dragoshi: .oO(Unlikely, but...Hey. Stuff happens.)
Valentine Kilmer: "Well. Whatever the case may be, Mr. Sawyer is your biggest hitter. Try to plan things out as you go."
Dragoshi: *Just nods, and starts writing stuff down in his notepad, such as Question Mark's stuff, and Proctor's own words. :/*
Valentine Kilmer: "Good. You're taking notes. Maybe there's hope for you questers after all. It was sad when I read about a Ninja pulling from the group and outsmarting Dr. Robotnik and Dracula. Dwell on this as I go resume my work with Dr. Light." *She hovers away.*
Dragoshi: .oO(...I miss that guy.) "...'Kay." *Continues writing down notes.*
Digifanatic: "So, if all goes properly, this'll be a great exhibition before the tournament. "
Dragoshi: "..." .oO(If all goes well being the operative words.)
