In your past blog, you said the White and Black Spies were toons hired by The Null Order, is this still true?

Yes, they still are and they never seem to quit no matter how much abuse they take from either the heroes that catch them, the various other factions, or from themselves and their own traps....Much to the misfortune and annoyance of the heroes they keep on harassing.

======

Uzi, after having kicked their asses for the upteenth time: I think I'm starting to understand and feel how the other factions feel about us.

Luz: Same...

Demoman: Oh, I need a drink!

Null Eviction - Part 2

“Hey, hey. Getting tired yet?” Karma stood a couple feet from Alter, the both of them had taken on major damage. Karma lost a hand, a horn had been broken off leaving awful, jagged edges atop her skull along with her body being left with deep wounds that were beginning to heal after some time of being untouched. Even though she seemed to be in a dire situation. Alter was looking far worse.

A missing arm, a lost hand, a chunk of her thigh being completely missing as well causing her to rely on floating rather than standing. Her form stayed the same but seemed to be flickering to… Something. It was hard to make out but the both of them were beginning to regenerate their lost limbs and harsh wounds.

“Why…?” Alter’s voice could be heard, from the void that was her face there could be seen some black liquid falling from the area. Was that her blood?

“Why are you so different from me? We’re one and the same yet you haven’t reached the same conclusion as I have. Even being here! See her and knowing what she’s like!” Alter nothing but scorn for the people around her, the ones in her life, ones she called friends and family.

“Have you not thought about it? The damage they’ve done? The innocent lives they’ve made suffer? For what? A good fight?! Yes, everyone can be wished back but that doesn’t make the fear and horror go away! Imagine being so powerless, knowing your family is dying in front of your eyes until you succumb to death itself only to then suddenly be alive again in an instant like nothing happened. That’s nothing but suffering! Those Vacosian’s claim to protect Remnant but only think about the planet as an inhabitable home rather than the life that occupies it!”

Karma would be silent for a moment, thinking of her words before replying “You’re just a full on hypocrite.”

“What!?”

“You’re the same as you claim them to be. When you were on your warpath, killing all of your versions of my family, you made me watch as I couldn’t do anything about it. How can you sit there and say any of that as you’ve literally done far worse?! Does that timeline even have Dragon Balls anymore?! God and to think this was what everything’s been about?! You’re so-“

Alter began to laugh, cutting Karma off, the two of them were almost fully regenerated. The air was filled with impatience as the two of them wanted so desperately to get back to their fight.

“You know so very little about Ruby and what she keeps from you.” Her thigh had regenerated, walking slowly around Karma, the two of them mimicking each other’s movements now.

“Did you know, she knows our mother’s alive?”

Karma would stop in her tracks at the revelation. “You’re a goddamn liar.” Her eyes would glare at Alter whose form was almost fully restored, but that image she kept presenting, the void empty face with nothing but the glow of eyes, the gray skin… It was all starting to fade into color again.

“Well, I’d say go and ask her yourself but… You’re not leaving here alive.”

Karma had enough of this, jumping right in and yelling “Get the fuck out of my home!” A punch, landing square in that now half colored face if Alter’s which now showed features of a nose and a pair of lips. “And my damn timeline!” Another throw of a punch, one that was covered with energy that swirled with a darker hue of pink bordering the usual glow.

The fist was caught, the energy surrounding it dissipating like water evaporating off a hot surface. The hand that caught it wasn’t the normal grey skinned tone Karma was used to and when she looked at Alter, she saw now that her darkness form had completely dissolved and the woman standing back at her…

“This is not your timeline to call home!”

Karma had no time to respond or even react to the information at all as her body was thrown and immediately hit with a beam of energy that wrapped itself around her, surrounding her being. This wasn’t good, she couldn’t move her body at all, she noticed the beam was extending out from Alters hands.

“It’s time for you to see the truth, Karma.”

“W-Wait how are you-?!” Her body seemed to move on its own, forced to mimic Alters movements “Wait… Wait are you??”

Their bodies stood side by side, a calculated distance between each other and soon, a very special, integral ‘dance’.

“Fuuu-“

“No!” Karma tried to resist, tried to get out of this forced mimic state she was in, desperately trying to deny her body the precise movements the dance needed as it moved perfectly in sync with Alter’s.”

“-Sion!”

It was nearly complete, Karma’s heartbeat pounded in her ears, she didn’t know something like this could even be possible. Alter wasn’t one to play games like this! This had to be-

“Ha!”

Their fingers would flawlessly touch each others, from them a large radius of energy would grow and expand as color’s of black red and pink would clash collide and mix until regressing into a singular form, containing all of that impossible power into one person.

“…”

The figure would stand there in silence as an internal battle will be made within.

okay, here's my take on where c.larice fits each season -

season 1. she's a trainee at the academy. she's almost graduated. she knows jack from lectures he's given, and he's picked her brain on a few cases, since she's at the top of her class and is excelling above everyone else. her fellow students don't like that she seems to be becoming jack's favorite, and so she's often alienated from them, but she doesn't care. she literally only has one goal by being here, and she's achieving that goal. by the end of season 1, she's graduated and jack recruits her for his team.

season 2. jack asks clarice to be his new hound, since will has been detained for murder. she's still new to this, but she catches on fairly quickly. she's immediately thrown into the deep end, and jack starts to realize she's kind of a handful, as she likes to go off by herself and make accusations where there isn't any evidence, aka working on a hunch ( even though she ends up being right every time ). as a distrusting person by nature, she doesn't trust hannibal or will that much, but she also doesn't believe will was the cause of the murders he was accused of. which is proven later on. she continues to work for jack, beside will, even though they do not get along, at first. she also intends to get closer to lecter, as she believes that will was right and that there's at least something off about him. by the time they find out that hannibal is actually the ripper, it's too late. clarice shows up to find alana and will almost dead, and abigail actually dead this time. she waits there until jack and the paramedics arrive and then she waits in the hospital to make sure her colleagues make it through the night before she starts searching for where hannibal ( and bedelia ) might be. she's there the night hannibal surrenders himself at will's house, right beside jack.

season 3. with hannibal locked up and will refusing to see or talk to him, jack brings clarice to try and get hannibal's help. it's a long process, but she goes twice a week for years to speak with lecter, gaining his help with cases and, in return, giving him information about herself. jack doesn't like where this connection seems to be going, but it's working, so far, so he doesn't stop it. by the time will comes around and is finally willing to ask hannibal for information about the red dragon, clarice starts to distance herself from hannibal, realizing that she may have gotten too deep into his mind ( and him into hers ). by the time she hears about hannibal's escape ( will at his aid ), and they make it to the top of the cliff, the two men are already gone, but despite the improbability of their survival, clarice knows they aren't dead. another one of her hunches.

post canon. clarice either figures out where the two of them went or ( if we plot ) hannibal and / or will have given a hint, only for clarice as to where they are. she's still working under jack, but she's pulled back a bit from the bau, so when she says she's going on sabbatical, he doesn't bat an eye. she makes sure to cover her tracks as she travels to find them, though she isn't sure what to expect when she does find them. she can't be sure she'll be able to turn them in once she catches up.

A new chapter! [Part one of two]

[wings-of-life]

Pap laughed softly as the napkin was thrown at him and bounced harmlessly off his shoulder. "Ah oof ouch, how could you Angel." He playfully flicked it back at her from where it landed on the counter. It missed wildly. "Damn, you escape my wrath this time. I'll get you back later." Null pointing out all his favorites was hopelessly endearing. He could see why Angel had latched on to him so easily. "Those are some good picks kid, can't argue with you there." Angel got a brow raise from Pap with her last announcement. "Oh? You have a mystery snack you've been hiding from us? Well, I'm ready when you guys are."

"R-Really?" Null looked at Angel with big eyes, completely floored at the idea that she'd bring him food like this even when he was back in the void. And then she went even further by saying he could come visit whenever he wanted! He teared up a little, thankfully having the forethought to set his cup down before leaning forward and pulling Angel in for a tight hug. "Th-thank you s-s-so m-much!" He didn't mean to become such a blubbering mess, but just the offer itself meant so much to him. He managed to get himself under control before too long, pulling back to rub at his eyes with a small sheepish smile. "S-sorry. I um...y-yeah I'm r-ready too, wh-whenever you are."

She quickly ate her slice of pie so as to not keep them waiting too long for their mystery dessert. She was surprised when Null looked at her with those big eyes though. She hadn't realised that to her such a small thing as her bringing him food or letting him come over could mean so much to him.

She was taken even more aback when he suddenly hugged her. She'd been wanting to show him physical affection of her own but hadn't been certain if he'd be up for it. With how long it had been since they'd last seen each other, how overwhelming being in her verse must be for him. She hadn't wanted to risk making him uncomfortable. But when his arms closed around her she put her arms around him almost immediately, stroking the head of his head with one hand. "You're very welcome Null, and I mean that. And we can take it as slow or as fast as you need. Being here in this underground is already a big step for you, I know."

She smiled warmly at him when he pulled back, letting go of him when he did. "No need to apologise, I'll be right back." She took one more bite of her pie before slipping off her chair and going around the bar and into the back. A few moments later she returned with a tray radiating with cold. On it were three beautifully made Starfait she had kept hidden in the freezer in the back so that they wouldn't melt before they'd be ready for them. "Here we are," she placed the tray on a free spot on the bar before retaking her seat, "Now be careful not to eat this too fast, Null, or you might get a headache, Okay?"

“ if anybody were to kiss me, i would want that person to be you. “ (Maika to Hera, gen 2 FFXIV)

"Aww, really? You mean it~?" Was Hera slightly drooling at the prospect of kissing the viera before her? No, not at all. Totally not at all. Wiping away what spittle there was, she quickly regained her composure, and smiled over at her friend. "Well, thank you for flattering me with that compliment. I promise you, it is much appreciated!"

[multiversal-fusion-reborn]

"You get what you pay for....And Gray Monitor didn't feel like paying for much~..."

Strix, after Gray Monitor ordered the Black and White Spies to capture Uzi Doorman for her great power.

Prologue - Null Eviction

Stepping through the void portal Karma took a look around the area, vast nothingness. It was exactly as one would expect when entering a vast white void. Completely empty except for the exit building that lay just a couple feet ahead.

“Echo!” Her voice would somehow echo even though there was a lack of walls for her voice to bounce off of. Maybe she was just that loud.

“Good morning Vietnam!!!!” And again the echo would bounce her voice back, earning a small laugh from the brawler before she set down the small bag accompanying her to the ground and opening it up. “Ok, now just to double check. Capsule box full of food and drinks? Check. Sensu beans? Check. And… Some extra clothes. Yup. It’s all here.”

‘What are you planning now?’ The voice inside her head would stir like a dark cloud in Karma’s mind. Clearly agitated, as usual.

“I’m not gonna spoil the fun. Just sit and wait.” Karma would begin to stretch as she talked. “You know, I was thinking. You were right, I’ve really lost my drive. My passion or whatever you wanna call it. Maybe being a house wife wouldn’t be too bad. But you listened to what Ruby said too, training is about moving forward while attaining goals and being proud of yourself and who knows, one day my specialties may be needed to help with whatever threat my come our way. So. I’m really tired of being stuck in the same spot. I think it’s about time I snip the dead weight from me already.”

The brawler would finish her little warm up. “So, anything else to say?”

‘….You and that bastard are fools. But I’ll play your game.’

“Fuck you’re predictable.”

Karma would sigh and look at the building that served as the exit to this dimension. There was a bit of hesitation in her movements as she feared the worst outcome of her plan. That, and she would also be doing something very stupid. “Man, I should have said goodbye to some people. But the last thing I wanted was someone worrying about me.” Or a couple people.

“Oh well, at least Dad’s a quadrillionaire.” Her hand would glow a bright pink, summoning a ball of energy in her hand that would soon encase her palm. “I’m sure she’ll cover me when I get out.”

‘Wait! You don’t plan to-‘

“Sure do! You ready Null? No way in! No way out! Let’s do it!”

Despite the screaming of the alter in her head, Karma would launch the pink energy ball right at the exit, effectively blowing the building away until there was nothing but dust and rubble.

‘You goddamn idiot! You’ve doomed the both of us!! When I get out of here-‘

“Yea see, that’s the next thing… You ready to come out?”

“Cause now. I’m gonna kick your ass.”

[starrymused]

Why was she super cute? Link had always known Hyrule's princess was beautiful (even if he hadn't gotten the chance to gaze upon her) and that was undebatable, but for her to have such a cute and approachable personality too was a welcome surprise.

He shook h is head but smiled to show that he appreciated being offered her potion stash. Maybe at the end of all this they could get to know each other while chugging potions but he hoped it didn't come to that. Really, he didn't want her harmed at all.

They continued on and Link felt like the end was near. Not their end, mind you. Null's. They would put a stop to this and bring peace one again. Another door was before them and they headed on through, bold in their step. Waiting for them was the fake Zelda, surrounded by two clawed arms. Null was finally here.

As their enemy spoke of their intentions and what they desired, Link had to wonder why the opposing side always felt the need to monologue. Unfortunately, they had one piece of the Primal Energy, taken from the fake Zelda who had stolen it from before. But he and the real Zelda had their own pieces, which would be enough to overpower Null.

Link shared a look with Zelda, the real one, and nodded. It was time to end this.

YES. Yes! She was killing it at being so cool!

"--Oh! Yes!" She tossed her hair confidently. "Yes, I'm perfectly fine!" Then she blushed, "Thank you for asking. What about you? Are you okay?"

He didn't look hurt, but she wasn't surprised.

"I have extra potions if you need them!"
