[Great an annoying hero... How mind-numbingly obvious- He's not from Classic or Fractal's side of the woods though.]

… Cassie’s tears were coming back… and her face screwed up again… before she lurched forward, her arms circling tight around Roxy’s chest.

“Y-You saved me… even after I…! I-I…!!”

Roxy folded her arms around Cassie.

“Yes. Yes, I did. No kid gets attacked by a stupid scrawny endo monster if I can help it.”

Cassie made a sound somewhere between a laugh and a sob, her arms tightening slightly.

At least someone was on her side...

[randomly--accessed--memories]

Had some ideas about Proto Vox and Niffty while driving

Vox and Niffty meet when Vox's boss hires her to make his clothes/costumes. She's not under contract with his overlord (not under contract with anyone, in fact); she's just freelancing, so she only comes by the compound once every few weeks.

The two of them form a tentative bond over the hardships they face due to their demonic forms, and their shared ambitions to eventually rise above their stations.

Vox is hamstrung by being locked into a deal with his boss and only ever being allowed to leave the base in her company. Niffty is just a regular sinner with no real power, but she uses her seamstress job and unassuming appearance to network and collect/trade information.

Vox is privy to tons of information about his overlord's business dealings and private affairs since he's almost always with her. Up until this point, he hadn't been able to make use of that information due to his limited mobility, but now he has Niffty. He shares confidential information with her, and she carries it back outside. She then trades it to others in exchange for favors/assets/information, which she shares with Vox whenever she sees him next.

They're able to keep this arrangement up for a few years. Niffty's starting to accumulate some power, but Vox is still stuck under his boss' thumb. One day, something bad goes down between Vox and his boss, and he confides in Niffty that he needs to get out of this fucking place; he feels like he's gonna snap if he doesn't. Sympathizing with her friend, Niffty decides to take a risk. She spreads a rumor that Vox's boss has done/is planning on doing something to slight the Radio Demon.

Just as she'd hoped, Alastor shows up at Vox's overlord's compound and kills her, broadcasting her scream to the city. Niffty is excited, not only because there's now a power vacuum that she can take advantage of but also because Vox is free. However, he's nowhere to be found. Niffty assumes he split to go strike out on his own and tries not to resent him for not getting in contact with her (and hopes that she didn't accidentally get him killed by sending the Radio Demon after the woman whose company he was always in).

Years pass, and Niffty builds up her business, eventually achieving overlord status. At an event, she happens to cross paths with Alastor... and Vox! She's thrilled to see him again (and that he's not dead). It turns out that Alastor took an interest in him when he went to kill his boss, and Vox has been with him ever since. Things were a bit rocky at first, but after a while, the two of them became friends– actual friends, not a master and servant like Vox and his old boss had been. With Alastor's guidance, Vox has been building up power of his own. He recently discovered that he can modify his body, and has just gotten his first augmentation: a pair of neon blue claws (which look suspiciously similar to Alastor's, but Niffty doesn't mention that). The two of them agree to stay in touch and possibly do business together now that they've got more than just information to offer each other.

Vox and Niffty remain friends, occasionally meeting up for business-related things or just to chat. Vox slowly upgrades more and more parts of his body. Niffty's happy for him that he's finally able to gain some control over the form he hated. She jokes with him that she's jealous; he gets to change his body however he wants, but she's stuck looking this way forever. Do ladybugs go through metamorphosis? However, things are starting to get tense between Vox and Alastor. She can't tell if it's because of the upgrades, Vox's increasing confidence and success, or something else.

Eventually, Vox and Alastor fall out. Niffty is just as shocked as the rest of the city when Vox emerges from their fight not only alive, but having forced Alastor to retreat. Yes, it was a stalemate and Vox came out of it the worse for wear, but it was still something no one else had been able to do before. While she knows the split from Alastor hurt him deeply, Niffty is happy for Vox that he's suddenly in the spotlight, ready to claim the power he always craved in a body that feels right to him.

Alastor has a dilemma now: he wants to make Vox pay for ruining things between them and daring to try to compete with him, but he doesn't want to kill Vox. He's also curious about a certain ability of his that he's aware of but has yet to fully explore. The solution to both problems presents itself in the form of Niffty. While she and Vox truly aren't that close, she's an easy target, and Alastor's been feeling spiteful these past few months.

Vox is shaken by Niffty's "death," but it does nothing to dissuade him from the path he's on– quite the opposite. However, he's horrified when he learns about Alastor's new maid. Seeing Niffty, a clever and driven woman who he'd once commiserated with over their pathetic demonic forms, reduced to a hyper, childish freak is like something out of a nightmare. Vox could hear the message Alastor was trying to send loud and clear: "If I can do this to her, I can do it to you too." The thought of losing everything and truly becoming the fool everyone had once assumed him to be was terrifying, but Vox's pride and hatred of Alastor would not allow him to back down. He took measures to protect himself from his former friend and continued working to build his soon-to-be empire.

When Vox and Niffty reunite at the hotel, neither them are in the right headspace to process what's wrong. However, there's a little twinge of... something deep within them both. Something like sorrow.

PROMPTS FROM BATMAN

🦇—-;; Bruce had been watching her for a little while, not quite sure what she's up to, if only because it is a little odd to see a teen out this late, let alone a teenage girl, who seemed by herself. Still, not wanting to assume he had waited until she did something that did warrant action. There's a slight tilt to his head as he shifts on his perch, hand moving to the grapple. He uses the device to land quietly nearby.

His cape is pulled around his shoulders slightly as he steps over slightly and hi eyes narrow a little. He'd cleared his throat to get her attention, and he didn't particularly like the response, but obviously she was. He should bring her to the GCPD, but even he knew that wasn't likely the best course of action here. So instead, Bruce scowls lightly for a moment and huffs.

"Is trouble not what you were looking for?" The Bat asks, it's not a question that requires an answer, but he steps forward then, ignoring the street light for the moment. He'll gloss over what he'd seen her doing a moment ago for the time being, given the more concerning fact she's out here alone. "I mean, out here by yourself, is it really worth it with all the risks out here in Gotham?" It's not a safe city at night.

Fuck me, I thought one of the kids found this blog.

[aletheialed]

The Chief Prosecutor from overseas, Miles Edgeworth... at first, Rayfa had come here to see him for a completely different reason to the one that's taking up all of her attention now.

Honestly, she doesn't remember the man particularly well. It's no surprise - she was in such an awful state during the time that she'd spent with him that she barely gave him a second thought with everything that had been on her mind. But he'd been kind to her - she remembers that, and she'd wanted to thank him for it. There may have been other reasons for her seeking him out, too, but right now... Rayfa has forgotten about all of them for one very specific reason: the mystery that she's determined to solve.

That is to say - the question of whatever it is she's been experiencing whenever Miles Edgeworth is nearby.

If you were to put her on the spot, she'd say it feels like spiritual power. But that makes no sense. For one thing, Rayfa has never heard of a man having spiritual power! ...Though until recently, she hadn't thought that anyone from outside of Khura'in could channel spirits... and so much of what she'd believed about the spiritual world had been wrong that it would hardly surprise her to learn if she was mistaken about more. Still - it's strange enough to have made her second guess herself. Then, there's her next source of doubt - the fact that Rayfa can't even channel spirits yet herself yet. So can she really trust herself to accurately discern what she's feeling to begin with...?

To be honest, she hates it - being so unsure of herself. It brings up bad memories in her... uncomfortable feelings that she'd hoped she had finally got rid of. But that's exactly why she's so determined to figure this mystery out right now - so much so that it takes her three times until she realized her name has been called by the man she's been staring at for the past half a minute.

"Oh! Ummm...." Suddenly, Rayfa feels awfully embarrassed. Not that she has anything to be embarrassed by, of course! Her curiosity is completely reasonable, and as the future Queen of Khura'in, she is obviously one hundred percent justified of wanting to get to the bottom of this matter!

"Mr. Chief Prosecutor! Did you- say something to me just now?"

"Ha! I'm gonna make this look easy like, Muscle Guy!"

Fortune reported as ordered, though...no one had told her to come in full combat gear. But she'd demanded to be allowed to take a more active role in Rex's 'bad guy hunting time', as she'd called it. Though the more polite term would be 'superheroism'.

Unfortunately, given her...enthusiasm, and seemingly boundless capacity for violence, some ground work had to be laid down first.

And that meant superhero lessons.

"Well come on, then! What's first? Close quarters combat drills? A little range time? Torture 101? Come on, come on, I'm ready already, like! Aw this is gonna be just like boot camp! 'cept this time I'm not suckin' off the drill instructor."

After an entire evening of sorting through florals and staring at various websites, he was certain he had his act together. It had been 15 years since his last date, but... with the bits of encouragement he'd been receiving he felt some of the nerves give way to excitement. Before he went to bed, with trembling fingers, he slipped the ring off the necklace that he always kept beneath his collar and stowed it safely away in a box of dried marigolds.

The next day, after a fresh haircut, at 20 minutes until noon, he arrived at the boba shop they'd agreed upon, a few small flowers wrapped in tissue behind his back.

Well, Rachael came in at an awkward time.

".....so. Ye got turned into a spider." The very tall, very buff lady with wings who sort of resembled Rachael's boyfriend, looked down at her chest with an ever increasing look of dismay. A long sigh filled the room.

"You get t'be Spiderman, an' I got turned into a woman. Fuckin' ballocks, this is."

Meeting The Dragonlord

@darkcacaocookieandfriends

Surely it was just going to be a peaceful night this time. And it was that time once again for her to do her usual ritual.

She lit a flame on the candle nestled into her freshly crafted paper boat and gently placed it into the sea to sail away in to the abyss.

The voices of her people still echo in her ears from the lake below. She could not help but to always return to the sea. A place where everything that fell beneath the waves became forsaken, never to be remembered or seen again... Only she remembered them, and only she mourned for their loss. It was her burden alone to bear.

It was her fault.

If only she was stronger, braver! If only she knew better...

If... Only...

She felt the restlessness from the sea and slowly began to hum, eventually singing the song she always sang to her people when times were rough.

Tonight she felt at her lowest. She had been tired and restless as of late, but she still had to pay her respects, regardless of her condition. It was the least she could do for her dear fallen cookies.

Meanwhile, there had been a Cacao warrior who had not only spotted her, but heard her, and quickly left to warn the king that the Ghost from the Urban Legend was finally back.

"There's no need for you to remember."

On Arikado's lips, the words he speaks taste like ash. He couldn't say why, exactly, they feel so hollow - after all, he doesn't want Soma to remember, and he really does believe that that's what's for the best. Not just for the world, but for Soma himself, too...

After all, if Soma starts remembering the past, no-one can say what will happen or who he might become. But more so than that, Arikado doesn't wish for Soma to bear that burden. The rage and grief felt by his father, so strong that they drove him to madness and devoured the man Arikado used to know, leaving nothing left... he has no doubt that Soma deserves better than to experience them again. ...Soma is different to Dracula - so it's only natural that Arikado would come to care for him, isn't it? After watching over him for such a long time... that's all it is. He's sure of it. So...

"You should just live your own life, Soma." Arikado insists, as he always has done, in response to Soma's latest question. It's not the first time they've had this conversation.

"Aren't you satisfied with what you have now?"
