Have you read the Scream Your Heart Out series on live journal by quirky_anecdote? If not it’s so good
I haven’t read a lot of the stuff in live journal cuz I can’t figure out how to navigate it

is it bad that im like, so excited for mikey to do the spell on leo? and go into his mind and whatnot? like its gonna be terrible. the kid probably wont be able to handle it (atleast not on his first try?) and nobodies going to be able to really *comprehend* just what bishop did to leo. like yeah mikey can talk about it all he wants but unless the others see it for themselves itll be next to unfathomable. and also the angst. i love the angst. knowing your style and the last chapter its probably still going to get worse but oh my god am i ready (hoping?) for the comfort part soon. all im getting at is that down with the stockholm has me on the edge of my seat. its consumed all thoughts. screaming crying throwing up. <3
Tumblr media
asks like this make me go SCREEEEEE 🥺 thank you. i’m excited to show what mikey and barry have been up to all this time.
i will say this:
comfort is right around the corner (sprinkled with some angst ofc) then we will get quite a bit of it for mmmmmaybe a week ;)
THEN THINGS GET REALLY BAD AND CLIMAX HAPPENS AND EVERYTHING IS EXPLODING IN OUR FACES
more healing and comfort after (yay)
thank you for sticking around i look forward to the rest of the journey we’ll take together ♥️

Chapter 6, Finale
*crunch* A red claw grabbed Alexander’s arm in a Vicegrip and twisted! The sound of bone snapping was drowned out by the man’s scream. Lifting him high, Skeeter looked him in the eye. The monster raised it’s head, a Durant’s gnashing maw reveals itself! Saliva and strands of silk splash over Alexander as the mandibles smash together with a metallic crash, just inches from his face. He aims a kick at the monster’s torso, but only succeeds in getting his leg caught and bringing the monster down on top of him! Pain ripples through his leg and arm both as teeth and claw rend flesh from bone.
The ranger struggles to free himself, to reach out for the broken styler, but only finds exposed wiring that burns even with his electric resistance. The weak charge is barely enough to make Skeeter flinch as he slams it into it’s face over and over again, desperate to find some way, any way to end this fight! No use, no escape.
Wild Skeeter used Bug Bite
*rip* Yellow spines fly and prick Alexander’s face, “No!” He cried, the ranger’s prized Jolteon struggling in the monster’s mouth, it’s needles crunching as the insect continues chewing on it’s white neck fur, just barely holding back the mandibles from tearing open it’s neck.
“Stop! Stop! Please, no more!” The monster Ditto’s mouth opens wide for one more crunch, the hollow sound of a Durant's trap jaw clicking into place, a telltale sign that they’re about to come crashing down!
No time to waste, Alexander pulls a hand back, drawing on the last bits of power he can pull out of his belt, and swings.
“SCREEEEEE!” The sound of hundreds of bugs screeching all at once rings through the room. The mutant insect reels, it’s body flexing and morphing, attempting to push the jagged plastic from the styler out of it’s eye. Alexander rolls free, clutching his fainted pokemon close as shadows from the twisting amalgamation dance in the spinning light. It’s scythe flails wildly and slices the bulb in two, leaving all three in perpetual, roaring darkness.
*spark* The faint light of Jolteon’s failing electricity provides a slight beacon, one small flash at a time. The things seen in those flashes… it’s better not to describe. But seeing his chance to escape, Alexander makes for the stairs! Heart pounding in his ears louder than the sound of his shoes on the aged wood deafen the ranger. Almost there. Almost free!
“No…” A thousand red lights flicker through the forest.
Alexander was hurt by Infestation!
“Get off of me! Get off!” Ripping himself away from the swarm he slams the door of the abandoned building closed, the sound of chattering limbs pounding against wood finally returned sound to his ears. But it did little to distract from the horror making it’s way up the stairs.
A mass of bloody limbs, constantly forming and reforming stalks it’s way up and into view. In the center of it all is that bloody eyed face ;)
The mass charges into him and all at once Alexander is consumed by pink mass! A thousand tiny mouths too numerous and too painful to describe on their own tear into him like a blender. Gurgling, the ranger reaches out for something, anything… *click*
Light surges into the room! A red explosion at first, then smaller blinks accompanied by the sound of a tiny ball rolling. Rolling. Rolling… *crash* The ball explodes! But it held for long enough. Jolteon weakly climbs to it’s feet, having been revived in those brief seconds the pokeball granted. No moves left, the two pokemon used struggle! Again and again they clash until it looks like the tiny dog looks like it’s about to keel over again.
Alexander used Struggle!
Alexander was hurt by recoil…
Alexander whited out.
*chime*
“Say what?!?”
“I don’t get what’s so darn hard ta get.” Skeeter, once more covered in bandages from head to toe, leans over to the opposite hospital bed. “When a wild pokemon wants ta be yer friend, it’s gonna battle ya!”
“I’d hardly call THAT a battle! I’m gonna be having nightmares for weeks!” Arm in a sling, Alexander sulked next to his Jolteon. The little guy was already back to full health and lapping up hospital jello from a cup.
“Heh, sorry bout that! I forget ya can’t just smash humans through one of them pokecenter machines. You’d think I’d know by now, after pretendin ta be one for so long.”
“I still don’t get that. Why’d you have to ‘test’ me in the first place?”
“Yer a smart guy. I figured after you kept asking all those questions it was only a matter of time fore ya found out about me. And well, we can’t have just anybody figuring us out, ya see?” Everyone in the room turns to face him :) [except for one very confused Rattata]
“R-right. But you’re not gonna go around testing just anyone like you did with me, are you? …Skeet? What are you writing?”
PROF. OAK
LANCE

greetings, zak! although there may be no need for such a formal greeting since . . . in this ask i’m just screaming about —
B A B I E M A R I U S ! ! !
SJTSYKDKYDKY GIANT IRKSOME MENACE (sososososoooooo very lovingly. affectionate. endeared. [ insert every synonym that shows up on the result of my google search ] to the highest possible degree, although not by a normal amount, i think) NOW SEEN WHEN HE WAS A PRECIOUS TEENY TINY LITTLE BABIE BOY ( . . . this may no longer be within the normal territory of ‘liking’ )
screeeeee! the amount of angsty, likely, of course, ykw who we’re talking about content in the event! systkzyks all of that content is going to be fed into the brainworms of imagining angsty von hangups— i mean von hagen— i mean— . . . eh, i don’t think it matters that much when both of them mean pretty much the same HAHAHAH
this is probably just my deluded brain infested with brainworms seeing things through incredibly skewed eyes only focusing on brainworm headcanons, but do i maybe see another frame behind babie marius? and the silhouette of a person in the frame? ( DYDYKSTJZGJSTJ i should probably wait until hyv gives us more pixels to see . . . )
IS THAT A MIRROR REFLECTING GIANN TAKING THE PHOTO OF BABIE MARIUS? IS THAT A PORTRAIT / PHOTO OF MAMA VON HAGEN? IS THAT — //is dragged away by hyv into the waiting area and silenced.
anyhow, kindly pardon me for screaming and going insane in this ask, it would be understandable if this went ignored. many thanks for your patience 🙇‍♀️
have a pleasant day ahead!
⚜️
salutations, fleurdelis :DDD pls im so delighted this started off formal and then took a hard swerve to marius screaming JHVKJAHFKASJ
IRKSOME MENACE!!! i hadnt heard that one before im so using it from now on to refer to marius as an alternative to my usual "infuriating bastard". he is So Many Synonyms of this and also yes, soon, we will see BABIE VON HAGEN
and OH DEFFO, WE R GONNA GET ANGST. all the bday2 ssrs have been deliciously emotional (i watched artem's a few weeks back and HOO BOY) and i am sossosoossosOOO EXCITED the von hangups are fascinating and i want to study this family and their effects towards marius' psyche under a MICROSCOPE
how r ur eyes so good omfg i could only make out the canvas but i can also see the frame/mirror thing in the back now that u mention it......when the full pic comes out we are gonna die, WE RLLY WILL
HE WILL BE SO SMALL AND SURELY THE CONTEXT WITHIN THE CARD STORY WILL ANNIHILATE US <3!!!!
i hope u have a great day too :D

Tumblr media
@battletowered​ commented My url? (If you get a ton dw about doing mine Ra :3c)         ⊱⊱ Url Meme Thing ⊰⊰ // not accepting
Tumblr media
My Opinion on;
Character in general:  Leon was. . . honestly I was dissing him during the first cutscene thing they have of him. . . and even to beating him in the championship battle. I kinda had the initial dislike how I get with characters that are really popular. How they play them: LISTEN I’m not just obligated to rant about Whimsy’s muses. I love the headcanons and the deep depth added to Leon with everything! He’s a lot more than just what is seen on the surface and I love it! The Mun: LISTENNNNNN I am definitely gonna respond to it because man I loved talking with you back in the other fandom and being able to strike up again and have our muses interact--and be chaotic again--has been amazing. I have no regrets meeting you and talking with you!
Do I:
RP with them: AHHH YESSSSS Want to RP with them: all the time!
What is my;
Overall Opinion: I will screeeeee forever about Whimsy and any of their muses! The chaos is wonderful and all the development we’ve got planned for Leon and Raihan is amazing! I’m too happy to be able to talk with Whimsy again and get our muses interacting in a new fandom 💜 it was fun in the past and it’s already been such a hoot for the month-ish I’ve been on this blog!

The remake of Princess maker Go!Go! Princess is about to release and I’m going to document my journey
It’s currently 8:54 PM. I’m in an inn located in Florida. I’m staying here for the holidays and I brought my switch with me, along with my computer and vita.
9:00 PM. I’ve got a bag of sour cream and onion chips and a copy of Battle Royale by Koushun Takami (novel version!). I’ve also got Studio Killers playing in my hearing aids (Bluetooth hearing aids are weak af but they are the FUTURE I SWEAR).
9:15 PM. About 2 hours and 45 minutes to launch day. I haven’t disclosed this yet, but I bought the digital preorder. In battle royale, I’m low key suspicios of everybody. I might actually finish the book tonight, but I doubt it. It’s about 600 pages long of small text and I’m on page 147. My switch is charging next to me. I WILL PLAY SCREEEEEE-
9:21 PM mini update: there is no specific schedule for my update times. Also, this can also serve as some sort of mini look into my average Saturday night haha! Just staying up late gaming.
9:30 PM. About 2 hours and 30 minutes to launch day. My book is still very good. I don’t want to spoil anything so I won’t be getting into detail, but I probably will slip because I’m tired. Jack Stauber is finna sing me to death.
9:40 PM. About 2 hours and 20 minutes to launch. I started playing smash. I’m really bad at smash. I’m also very bored. It takes me about 2 to 3 minutes to write an average report.
9:48 PM. I’m losing a lot wow. Everyone knows that PM is superior race but that’s ok.
9:52 PM. YO WHICH PAC MAN GHOST IS BLINKY AND WHICH ONE IS INKY I AM SCARE
10:00 PM. Two hours to launch day! Stuffs been same as always. I’ve been browsing reddit a bit in the meantime cause I’ve got nothing better to do and I can’t leave this post.
10:07 PM. The hearing aids have fired a warning shot. They’ll die in like 10 minutes. I guess I’ll just listen to ascension until then.
10:19 PM. I’m apparently really good with ice climbers. Also, DA BAFF. My pot quality is deteriorating so I’m getting a bit more tired mentally.
10:27 PM. Dang time is flying by. The news on the tv is all like “ooo look politics” and I just don’t c a r e UWU.
10:31 PM. I keep falling off the stage come on oh my god go neyshdidnhw.
10:41 PM. Jeez time slow down! I’m gonna miss the time! Also, I would like to say I don’t expect the game to release at 12:00. It’s just sort of an act I wanted to do to appreciate this game series. From now on, 12:00 will be written in red, as well.
10:51 PM. Basically I’ve gone back to playing FE:3H. Which I was playing before I’ve started this. I’m playing Black Eagles.
10:54 PM. Reminder for me to check the save file. I almost overwrote mine while I wasn’t paying attention! That would have been terrible.
11:01 PM. Remind me to stop playing at around 11:45 or so. Thank you beyond the screen.
11:09 PM. I’m thinking of readin again, but imma go into battle or something idk anymore honestly I’m just This weird mix of hyper and n u m b.
11:14 PM. I came into this so ready and I still really am exited but like I’m kinda tired but NOPE HAHAAAAAAAAAAA TAP YA TOES AND CLAP YA HANDS
11:17 PM. My hearing assistants bit the dust haha.
11:23 PM. My time is growing shorter. Maybe I should just watch Unnus Annus and give up on this for a bit idk. I just don’t want to lose all I’ve done on this blog.
11:30 PM. 30 minutes. I actually can’t play even if I wanted to because of network restrictions. I’m glad I embarked on this drowsy journey.
11:33 PM. Oh yeah I forgot to mention the microwave almost EXPLODED TWICE in this place. Two different microwaves as well.
11:40 PM. Well, this has actually been rather fun. Just with a side of Sothis and OwO
11:47 PM. I really hope I can get to internet soon tomorrow. I’d love to play my games soon. I really like princess maker and this game will make me pretty pleased.
11:52 PM. I’ve sort of run out of things to say. Personally, the game looks really fun, and it’s a shame I can’t play right now, but I hope people have fun with it. It’s so close to 12:00.
11:58 PM. Doot doot NOOT
12:00 AM. That’s it. It’s over. Goodbye

I !!!! appreciate you !!! and your nice comments !!!! and funny thoughts !!!!! and amazingness !!!!!! SO MUCH
No, YOU’RE breathtaking! :D
So like, I’m normally super awkward when it comes to liking or reblogging or anything, because my likes normally function as a “read this later�� button, and I am an awkward soul who is still wrapping her brain around the idea that yes, this is my blog, I can put whatever the heckdoodle I want on it and no one can tell me I’m Bad™️ for reblogging my fannish interests. So normally I’m a silent reader. Because I’m awkward.
But then, I found My Brother’s Keeper back in March (through your Eric fic because he is my SON and I LOVE HIM), and I got about halfway through and saw that bit where you said you’d heard that only like 10% of readers like something, and that you were counting on that because you really hoped people were enjoying your story. And I was filled with a Righteous Indignation at myself, because hot dang this fic was good, so I went back to the beginning and liked every single one.
And then, I started spending more time on your blog, and I started seeing the way you tag things. I’ve told you this before, but the way you tag things is just...so good. So energetic and joyful and genuinely amazed by the work of others. And for a while that got stuck in my head as “wow, I hope I can make something that makes Bee tag like that,” but about a week ago, when I was filled with the Urge to reread all of MBK all over again, possibly twice, that thought switches to “...does anyone tag Bee’s stuff like that?”
And I have no idea if people do or not, but I decided that heck it all, I was gonna do it anyway. And I’m not super good at screamy reactions (other than SCREEEEEE, which you might have noticed), but I can ramble about writing style and meta stuff ad infinitum. Assuming there is substance to the writing, which frickit, there IS. Like, it’s amazing the way you can swing from hilarious trash goblin shedposts to just...achingly beautiful descriptions of pain and love and loss and just. Frick. It’s so good. I love it so much. You the best.
but also can we talk about the head like why is there a head in the backpack how long has it been there why does Anti need a head and why is he keeping it in his backpack is it a skull is it fresh what does he use it for why is there no mention of his head-keeping habits anywhere else does he have other body parts like hearts in the fridge why is the head not in the fridge what is going ON

Inui: "Tch...I've heard that before..."
Santiago: "When you've been a troublemaker ever since you showed up--no one wants you in town..."
inui: i dont even live in town directly, i just live on the outskirts, or is that illegal somehow?
Santiago: "Even that's too close! You're a nuisance, and worse, a witch--hardly any different than whatever a Kishin is..."
inui: oh here we go again, just because some of us sided with madness, suddenly we're _all_ evil. i've been hearing this bullshit for decades now.
Santiago: "Maybe if your kind would fix the mess your kind caused! But nope, you're just a troll, trying to embarrass people!"
inui: i'm just trying to live my life without trouble, and yet, you insist on bringing it to my doorstep with your racism and piss-poor attitude.
Santiago: "BECAUSE YOU MADE ME AND MY SISTER LOOK LIKE FOOLS! YES, I HATE PEOPLE LIKE YOU! And I'm sick of it! I'm sick of being mocked by you, having my sister dealing with bullshit from pervy men, and I just want to find whoever is killing people in this town! And all you do is think everything is a joke!"
inui: is it an apology you want?
Santiago: "Wh-What?! ...I-I don't know!"
inui: i mean, before the whole tar and feather incident, what did i, or any other witch, do to you to piss you off so much, huh?
Santiago: "I mean, look at me! You think I wanted this stupid weapon form?"
inui: ...
liz: ....
Patty: "...But you're a freaking cannon!"
Santiago: "WITHOUT A FREAKING MEISTER!" *slams her fist against a cave wall*

Santiago: "!!! You! What was your name...That missing person poster..."
girl: oh?
Santiago: "What was it...Lena Ocura!"
lena: that would be correct, miss officer.
Santiago: "THAT'S OFFICER SANTIAGO! And people were worried sick about you! Come on, I'm taking you home--"
lena: hehehe...AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! ah....people? worried about me? what kind of fool do you take me for? *her eyes widen intensly* my own father treated me like a plaything, as did his friends. and no one in school even knew i was alive. i had no one to look after me. i was on the verge of despair...but then, the madness found me, and saved me.

Schop: <She was clad in black, coming through this wasteland...We didn't know whether she was a threat--but we were starving...How could we fight against her if she was there to hurt us?>
tamaki: <what happened then?>
Schop: <Then she said she would rebuild this world--starting with us.>
fang-hua: <rebuild?>
Schop: <After the Disaster, we had no food...But when she gave us this...> *points to his tail* <...I no longer felt hunger.>
tamaki: <do you know where she is now?>
Schop: "..." *points at the other Amaterasu*
shinra: .....
Schop: <She built our god...saved our lives...She will come back...>
nozomi:.....??
shinra: ?? *looks in the distance*
*Something is shifting through the trees*
shinra: hello?
???: *growl*
shinra: ._.;
*A hooded figure appears*
shinra: !!!!!
juria: ah hell.
Ogun: "A human? Out here?"
shinra: *steps back* uhhh....guys?
*The figure's hood falls back, revealing--*
Infernal: "OUUUAAAAAHHHA"
juria: *flame gauntlets on*
Takeru: "EEP!"
tamaki: *runs in* return to the burning flames! *tail slash* ratomu!
Viktor: Q__Q "AAAAAH!"
shinra: hold on! *flies over to him*
*Viktor is flung towards--*
Viktor: "BURIED WOODEN SPIKES?!"
shinra *NICE CATCH* OwO;;; *gulp*
Viktor: Q____Q
shinra: for a moment, i thought your goose was cooked.
Viktor: T~T "Please don't say it like that...How did I survive this long..."
juria: *punches through one infernal*
*BARK BARK BARK*
tamaki: we got more coming!
Pan: *blows into his whistle*
*A dog rushes at Shinra--until a fiery lance descends in front of it*
shinra: nice save, ogun! *thumbs up*
Ogun: "No problem--now kick their asses!"
Infernal: "..." <Humans...>
fang-hua: ?!
Infernal: <Why are you here...?>
shinra: so it's another talking one, huh?
Ogun: "So, it has half a brain...”
Infernal: <Leave...or be sacrificed...>
shinra: <what are you talking about?>
Pan: <And why do you want the Shintai's regenerative power?>
Infernal: <'Regenerative'? No... It’s power is destructive!>
shinra: ??!! <what?>
Schop: <Liar! She regenerated our home!>
shinra: (is that why giovanni was searching for the key to the amaterasu? at least iris has it with her...)
Infernal: *cackles* <With that power, soon we will-->
*SLICE*
Arthur: "..." <No mercy.>
shinra: <like hell we'll let you people use it to destroy anything!>
Ogun: "So, what crazy plan do you think they were going to say before Arthur went Marie Antoinette on them?"
shinra: i think they wish to use this shintai for destroying something, whatever it is, it's not good...
Schop: <At least you avoided their leader...>
shinra: <their leader?>
Schop: <His name is Tempeh. He runs with others in cloaks, but you can recognize him by those ears.> *imitates with his claws...devil horns*
shinra: !!!!!!!
Ogun: "Oh no..."
Takeru: Q_Q
Schop: <??? You don't like big ears?>
shinra: <those werent ears. they're horns.>
Schop: <...Is that bad?>
shinra: <horned infernals are really, really dangerous.>
Schop: <...> *gulp* <They keep coming here. Killing us. Hunting for their stones...>
nozomi: <stones?>
Schop: *nods* <Flat stones, chipped away.>
shinra: ....<do you know where tempeh is?>
Schop: <He keeps his followers around God...>
shinra: <then we'll just have to lure him out.>
Pan: <Our mission is to explore the cause for the Adora Burst--I think we should be checking this 'God.' I am not interested in fighting against a Demon.>
shinra: well, if the demon is inside, then drawing him out is our best option while you look inside.
tamaki: he has a point.
juria: yeah, i dont mind fighting a few infernals. *cracks knuckles* otherwise i'll get rusty…
Pan: *sigh* "Fortunate to have some of our most fight-happy members here..." *looks at Schop* <Lead us to God.>

Walter: "Then I figured out I'm pretty good at observation, so I went into surveillance and just kept learning other things, like drawing, typing, programming, PhotoShop..."

shinra:......
nozomi: wait, i see something.
-seems to be a door-
Arthur: "You think it goes somewhere?"
shinra: inside the shintai most likely...
Pan: "We need to investigate inside..."
fang-hua: *nods*
shinra: ogun, tamaki, juria, takeru and i will keep a watch outside.
Arthur: "I'll go inside to guard the investigators."
nozomi: *nods*
Pan: "And stay quiet so not to attract attention."
shinra: we'll try to.
Pan: "Okay." *blows his whistle*
shinra: >~< (YOU HYPOCRITE!)
Schop: *SHHH!*
Pan: ._.; "...Sorry."
-and so-
Viktor: *holding a flashlight*
nozomi: it's surprisingly clean in here.
fang-hua: yeah, you'd think a 250+ year old structure would have a bit of dust inside it...
Arthur: "Likely gnomes."
fang-hua:...*sweatdrop* right....
*Sounds like metal rustling...*
nozomi: ?! *turns*
*A metal shutter has slammed shut*
nozomi: !!!!
shinra: !!! ah heck.
Ogun: "They found us..."
tamaki: *battle stance*
*Cloaked figures emerge from the shadows*
juria: heh, alright. *flame gauntlets on*
Figure 1: <Intruders...>
shinra: ..... <i'm guessing you're tempeh?>
Tempeh: <Who are you?>
juria: <the group that's about to fuck you up, that’s who.>
Figure 2: *grabs Juria from behind* <LANGUAGE!>
juria: *grabs the figure’s arms and tosses them over her*
Figure 3: *GROWLS, rushing at Shinra*
shinra: HYAH!
Figure 3: *flame claws grab Shinra by the ankle*
shinra: !!!
Ogun: *TACKLE*
shinra: woah! thanks man!
Ogun: "Any time..." *tosses a lance behind Shinra, nailing a Fire Dog to a tree*
tamaki: ratomu!
Fire Dog: *evaporates*
shinra: <why are you trying to cause destruction? these animals did nothing to you!>
Tempeh: *chuckles* <Sorry...But to me...> *summons a fireball* <You're all just animals to me!>
shinra: !!
*The fireball rises--then splits into pieces, descending like meteors*
Tempeh: <I'LL BURN IT ALL!>
shinra: !!!! *dodging*
Schop: *hanging onto Shinra* Q_Q
Takeru: "EEK!" *trying to fling fire missiles back, knocking some fireballs away--but into the trees*
juria: *grabs one infernal by the head and slams it into the ground*
Infernal 4: *SCREAMS INTO THE GROUND--shooting up fire under the rocks*
Schop: <HEY! DON'T DESTROY THE FOREST, TOO!> D : <
shinra: <sorry.>
Schop: -^-
Ogun: <This jackass has a death wish...> *tosses another lance--*
Tempeh: *catches it*
Ogun: "?!!!"
juria: what the fuck?!
Tempeh: <...> *grins* <You have no idea...> *tosses it towards Juria*
juria: *dodge* heh, you're really...really...beginning to piss me off.
Takeru: <Um...Sir? Why are you doing this?>
Ogun: "WHY ARE YOU BEING NICE TO HIM?!"
Tempeh: "..." <I want to die.>
tamaki: <then please, let us put you to rest!>
Tempeh: "..." *points at Juria* <Her. Let her try.>
juria: alright then. i'm gonna enjoy this! *THROWS A PUNCH*
*CRACK*
juria: *SCREAMS* FUCK!!
Ogun: "Juria!"
Tempeh: *taps his chest* <No matter your flame, it is not strong enough to kill me...But her...> *looks up at the Shintai* <Your 'god' can.>
juria: shit...at least i still have my left, you cant kill an oni so easily, after all...
shinra: ....
Tempeh: <She was made to destroy...With the flame my follows are creating inside, tapping into the shintai's power, will create an explosion that should reach...How far? Maybe to Qingdao.>
Takeru: <!!!! No!>
tamaki: <you're really willing to risk innocent people's lives, just to die?!>
Tempeh: <I will go to Heaven! And there, I will have all that was taken from me--including my servants! You, priestess--you could serve me!>
tamaki: *flips him off* <SCREW OFF, OLD MAN!>
Tempeh: <SINCE WHEN HAVE PRIESTESSES BEEN SO POORLY MANNERED IN THE LAST 250 YEARS?!> >_<###
shinra: <she's rather unorthodox, to be fair->
tamaki: GET BENT, KUSAKABE!!

Arthur: "I'm a Knight of the Round Table: I know all things round."
nozomi:....
fang-hua:....what?
nozomi:.....*facepalm*
Pan: *sad whistle*
Viktor: "...Um, no offense, but pi is 3.14, not 3.41..."
nozomi: actually, there is more to pi than 3.14, you see the number's in pi- *ramble ramble ramble*
Arthur: "..." *already walking away* "It's the hundred thousandth's place..."
fang-hua: *sweatdrop* she really knows her stuff, huh?
Pan: "At least someone does..."
Viktor: ^\\\\^;
-outside-
Ogun: "Shinra! Snap out of it!"
shinra: hu-huh? wha?
Ogun: *tossing lances at remaining Infernals* "You zoning out again?! Was it that link?"
shinra: i think so, but it didnt seem as homicidal as the last time.
Takeru: "...Yay?" *swinging arms to knock back Infernals*
tamaki: *DOUBLE TAIL SLASH*
Ogun: "Come on, Shinra--while she starts the prayer!" *tosses more lances*
shinra: right!
tamaki: burning soul, ashen smoke, the soul that desires release, ashes to ashes, may thy soul return to the flames. ratomu!
Ogun: *runs at one, shoving into their chest--* "Yoruba Forge!" *shoves more into the remaining Infernals--then lifts his arm to increase their heat*
Infernals: *SCREAMING*
Ogun: "...Riveting."
shinra: nice one. *thumbs up*
Tempeh: <...> *shaking*
juria: *slams two infernals heads together*
Tempeh: <M-My servants...Stop...Stop!>
tamaki: <we're only trying to help put them to rest!>
Tempeh: <I'LL PUT YOU TO REST!> *rushes forward*
tamaki: !!!!
Tempeh: *pulls back his hand--then thrusts it forward--*
*SLICE, CRUNCH*
tamaki: !!!!!!!!!!
Takeru: "..." *coughs* "...Ow..."
tamaki: TAKERU!
Tempeh: *withdraws his arm* <That's one animal put down-->
tamaki: why you-!!!
-nine fiery tails appear-
~CAT-O-NINE TAILS!~
Tempeh: "?!!!"
tamaki: *charges at him* MREOW!
Tempeh: *knocked back by the force of her blow*
Takeru: *collapsed*
shinra: takeru, dont you die, patti's gonna kill us if you die!
Takeru: "...'Die'? But...I'm fine?" *sits up*
shinra: ._. b-but how-
*The hole in his jacket...starts to re-assemble?!*
shinra: .____. WHAT THE-?!
Takeru: ^^; "I guess that clothing Patty had made for me helped..."
shinra:.....what?
{Patty: "Show it to him!"}
{felisia: here, this sweater will keep you warm and protected from harm. it's also inflammable~ ^^}
{Takeru: QwQ "This is so kind--thank you!"}
{Patty: ^w^ "This way if someone stabbed you through the chest, you won't die!"}
shinra:.......better not to ask.
Takeru: "In any case, the worst is over--"
*BARK BARK BARK*
shinra: aw dangit.
*Dogs rush at Takeru, grabbing onto each of limbs*
Takeru: Q___Q;
shinra: *kicks them away* FUCK OFF, FIDO!
Takeru: "I can only regenerate clothes, not limbs!" *tosses two dogs*
tamaki: hyah!
Tempeh: *struggling to get up* <Damn you...Can't you let me have this...Not for me...but for God!>
shinra: <we're not about to let innocent people be killed.>
Tempeh: <If they are innocent, God will welcome them to Heaven! But you? There's only Hell for you!> *summons a scythe...*
shinra: *takes a stance*
Tempeh: <Your souls are mine!> *swings the fire scythe*
shinra: woah! (hey, whoever that adora link was just now, please help!)
???: <Protect...>
shinra: *looks at the shintai*
-inside-
*BA-THUMP BA-THUMP BA-THUMP*
fang-hua: ?? is that a heartbeat?
nozomi: *looks down the corridor* .....
Pan: *looks...* "An inner chamber?"
fang-hua: now how do we get in there?
beauty: *BEAK SLICE*
Viktor: "...Huh." <That's helpful!>
beauty: <just dont break anything in there.>
Pan: "Hmm...This chamber has boards around it, likely increasing the sound of each vibration..."
fang-hua: hmm.... *looks up* ?? an arrow?
Viktor: "...Arrow?"
-there are 9 other arrows on a pedestal-
Arthur: "A white arrow, fitted into the space above the door, like a key in a lock..."
Viktor: "..." *shakes*
nozomi:...viktor? are you alright?
Viktor: "Vibrations like heartbeats...White feather arrows...Genkoku...S-Sacrifices!"
nozomi: what are you talking about?
Viktor: "There's a human in here--a human sacrifice!"
nozomi: ??!!!
fang-hua: a human?
Viktor: *nods* "Likely the traveler Schop saw..."
-outside-
shinra: (so, you're this 'god' schop mentioned, huh?)
*It's dark...A face emerges...*
Woman: "..." *shakes her head 'no'*
shinra: (then, who are you?)
Woman: (Not a god...A willful sacrifice...)
shinra: ?!
Woman: (I came here, knowing I could use this power to restore...)
tamaki: *slice slice*
Woman: (Why did you call to me?)
shinra: (please, help me fight this demon.)
juria: oi, ogun!
Ogun: *taking off his jacket* "I think we need to give Shinra some time..."
tamaki: good call.
Ogun: *pulls off his shirt, as flames snake off his fists and around his arms* *flame tattoos cover him* "Flamy Ink..."
Tempeh: "?!!"
Ogun: *his fist collides with Tempeh's face--and instantly sends him sailing across the ground towards Juria*
juria: *PAWNCH*
Tempeh: *slow motion "WWWWWWAAAAAAHHHHH--* *knocked into the dirt*
tamaki: wow.
juria: huh, not bad at all. if things were different, you'd make a great addition to the hell blaze gang.
Ogun: >_>; "Yeah, I'll pass..." *shoves Tempeh at Juria with another punch*
shinra: (so will you help us? schop and the others are waiting for you.)
Woman: (With what? My power is focused on maintaining the restoration of this Oasis...I have only enough power for one second of your time.)
shinra: .....*grin* (a second is all i'll need)
Woman: (What can you do?)
shinra: (whatever it takes to protect this place.) .... (you have the adora burst too, right?)
Woman: (Yes.)
shinra: (something about you is like the preacher from the ashen flame...what are you, exactly?)
Woman: (I am no different than you.)
shinra: ....
Ogun: *panting, swinging--and missing Tempeh*
shinra: (ok, i'm ready.)
Woman: (Then I bestow onto you...Divine Protection.)
shinra: ok, here goes nothing! *charges*
*Everything is motionless...Tempeh stands, ready to pierce Ogun's heart*
shinra: *rushes in and kicks* HAH!!
*Tempeh's body immediately sails up to the sky and across the Wasteland*
shinra: *jumps up and...*
-…-
shinra:....(am i....floating??)
*The Wasteland is below him...but the Oasis is gone!*
shinra: ?!?!?! (WHERE THE FUCK AM I?????!!!!)
*It's windy below...There's one cloaked figure below...*
shinra: ??
Cloak: *clutching a staff, walking* *pants* <...Why, God...>
shinra: ?? (is that...?)
*It's Tempeh, 250 years ago*
Tempeh: <The Great Disaster took all from me...My fortune, my home...my wife...my daughter...>
shinra: .........
Tempeh: <Why was I the only to survive...I hate this...I hate it all!> *slams his staff against the ground*
-fwoom-
-a figure emerges....the preacher-
preacher: ......
Tempeh: "!!!" *falls to his knees* "Wh-Who...?"
preacher:....*she says nothing. she just smiles*
Tempeh: <...God?>
shinra: (so then the preacher came from the tear in space...?)
Tempeh: *clasps his hand* <Lord! I beg you! Return to me that which the fire took!>
preacher:... *takes a bug from off her sleeve, and places it upon tempeh*
shinra: !!!!!
Tempeh: <??? What--URK!>
preacher: *walks away*
Tempeh: *panting--before he screams, clutching his face*
shinra: !!!! (so he lost everything in the disaster....)
Tempeh: *his eyes are ripped apart as horns form from them, a fire emerging from the center of his face...and he laughs*
shinra:... *he is slowly returning back to the present, tears falling*
Woman: (You cry?)
shinra: !! *rubs his eyes* (y-yeah....i'm still only human, i guess...)
Woman: *nods* (He is not the last to fall for her deception...)
shinra:.....(sho....inka....)
Woman: *nods* (A charlatan, playing God, infecting religions with lies...)
shinra:....(are you....from the tear in space as well?)
Woman: (...I spent an eternity in Adora...)
shinra: .....
Woman: (That 'preacher' and their bug awoke the Burst within me...I followed her here, brought by the will of that Shintai...to create, not destroy.)
shinra: hmm.....
Woman: (She has deceived your world to imagine her as the God of many religions...I do not have much more time--my energy is running out...Thank you...)
shinra: ....(any time)
-CRASH-
tamaki: !!!
shinra: *he fell through some trees to the ground*
Ogun: *collapsed on his back, panting* "H-Hey...Just drop on in...Heh."
tamaki: what the heck happened just now?
shinra: a lot....mm....*he collapses to his knees and vomits before passing out*
Takeru: "!!! Oh no!"
tamaki: *runs over to him*....h-he's alright, he's just fainted....
????: my, my, my~ i was wondering what all the ruckus was~
juria: ??
Ogun: *sits up* "?!"
kii-tan: hello, little humans~
Ogun: -_-# "How long have you been there?"
kii-tan: a while, enjoying the show. hope you dont mind~ fufufu~ oh, and hello to you too, schop-schop~ ^^
Schop: >3< <Stop that!>
-the door opens-
Pan: "What was that noise?!"
Viktor: "??? Did you fight or something?"
nozomi: is everything alri-....... !!!!!!!!!! o-o-o-OGUN! Y-Y-YOU'RE NAKED!!! >/////< *covers her eyes*
Ogun: O\\\\\O "I-I still have my pants on!"
nozomi: *hands him his coat* h-h-here! >////< y-you'll get cold!
fang-hua: ....hey, what's wrong with shinra?
tamaki: *she explains the situation*
kii-tan: *yawwwn....* hmm~? *glances at pan* *tiny blush*
Pan: "???"
Ogun: >\\\\<;;;
Viktor: *frowning*
tamaki: so what did you find inside the shintai?
Arthur: <We think it's her...>
Schop: <...> Q_Q
-later that afternoon-
shinra: ......*places a hand on the door* thank you...
Pan: *looking on*
*silence*
juria: so they're using human beings with adora burst to power these things?
Viktor: "It's the only explanation that makes sense, based on previous history I read...Maybe even that one woman who keeps talking to Shinra..."
shinra:.......*shaking*
Pan: "And who is to say she went in willingly? This traveler who approached Schop and the animals went in on her own--but what did the Church do? Or Haijima? Or even...our own forces?"
shinra: .....
{hitohashira me: *screaming*}
Ogun: "...Shinra..." *pat pat*
shinra: *wipes eyes* i-i'm gonna be ok...cant go breaking down and crying over every little thing, r-right? *tries to smile*
Ogun: "...Heh. Hero's smile?"
shinra: yeah.
nozomi: so how does 'pi' come into play with this?
shinra: not sure, but we know the preacher's plan, now. sacrificing the 9 remaining adora users in the amaterasu and re-create the disaster from 250 years ago. we know where the first 6 are, we just have to find the remaining 4.
Arthur: *walking around* "...I mean, this is a round facility...And pi is the ratio of the circumference to diameter, like a magic number, maybe the 'Pillars' are pi..."
Takeru: "How do we find the remaining four? We all don't have the Link, and investigations don't seem to be getting us very far..."
shinra: maybe me and mikami's psychic dreams might come into play to help? it's a stretch, but it's the best we got.
Ogun: "This kind of news could shake the foundation of Death City...again."
Pan: "So we better be discreet. This information does not leave this group, except to your commander, Shinra."
Viktor: "..."
shinra: understood.
nozomi: right.
Schop: *carrying a small satchel* <Nozomi, a little help?> *holds up the bag*
nozomi: <ah, right.> *helping to carry the bag*
Takeru: -^- <What do you want, potato thief?>
tamaki: takeru, dont be rude to schop.
Takeru: -3-
nozomi: ^^
Schop: <I'm sorry for stealing your tubers, so now that we got our Oasis back, I gathered these. They don't have the same flavor, but maybe it'll feed you?>
Takeru: *studies one, bites in--* "MMMM!"
Schop: ^^;
Pan: *looks around* "I think we had best head back to our vehicle..." *looks at Kii-tan*
kii-tan: you know, i can show you a shortcut through the mountains to get you to yao-ming~ *wink*
Pan: "???" <And I should trust you why?>
kii-tan: <even though i dont care too much for humans, your group did keep me entertained, so i figured i'd pay you back~ fufu~>
Pan: "..." >\\\>; "If you aren't lying, it'll be helpful."
kii-tan: would you rather risk the sand worms?
tamaki:... alright, we'll take your word for it.
Ogun: "Will we need gasmasks?"
nozomi: we better wear them just to be safe.
Pan: *nods*
Viktor: *hands them out*
Arthur: "Come along, Shinra..."
Schop: "..." *climbs up on Shinra's shoulder* <How is she?>
shinra: <i think she seems to be doing well...>
Schop: QwQ <...Thanks.>
shinra: <so what will you do now?>
Schop: <...Wait for her return, and protect this land.>
shinra: .....<you do your best, ok?> *smiles*
Schop: <...Will you come back? Maybe explain more what a 'hero' does?>
shinra: <maybe someday.>
Schop: ^w^ <Okay. I'll keep digging until I'm strong enough to fight them! And if I'm not, I'll find you to help me get stronger!>
shinra: <sounds good.>
Pan: <It would take us about 2 days to get back to Qingdao. How much time will this short cut save us?>
kii-tan: about a few hours.
Pan: "Hmm..." *gets into the driver's seat*

axel: i once kept a lizard in my pocket one day during 6th grade.
Asher: "...It get out?"
axel: i just fed him sunflower seeds. megatron's pretty chill. that was the lizard's name, btw.
Asher: "..." *small laugh* "Not 'Dino-Bot'?"
