Alt places the Bloodstained Foil back in the inventory in the hopes of pacifiying 15.

(sorry about the house, guy. i'll come around to fix it once this has all blown over.)

SOUL, without looking at it, teleports the memory titled 'no no no no no' onto the Monolith.

First things first, I accept Bill's deal BUT I refuse to give over the 40 SP until he gives me the double-damage, as he hasn't bothered to state he will give me the ability to do that, and for that matter, he hasn't asked me to give him 40 SP. In other words, as its written, there's no actual deal, so why not actually make one? Bill gives Roxxanne the ability to deal double damage on all her basic attacks and spells against Bill, his Friends, and Xavier's Robots/Drones/whatever you call them, until they are all gone and all fighting against them is over. Better cover every base. Roxxanne then gives Bill the 40 SP direct to his SP Bar.

Don't say I can't pitch a fair deal.

As for Xavier, what happens-wow.

You did not know Roxxanne could get eyes like that. Like, they're all black and they're actually leaking some black fluid? It's more like there's holes in her skull now. Yet, the near-illusion of her skin nearly fades in the process. The Dolls don't look nearly as creepy for the most part, but you can tell that no matter what, Roxxanne is angry. It appears she's so angry that, despite being at the Base with Gladius and DarkSide, that her clone can't really help but copy the main body, which is currently right in the optical of the X-Saber she stands right next to in the Bill Battle, and speak.

"Xavier that's not what I meant and you know it. I do have the Intelligence needed to aim a single Mindcrush at you and only crush part of your mindscape so I can crush all of your computing knowledge away did you know that? Gone because you had to be an ass and think you can just do whatever the hell you want for science without consequence there's ethics committees for a reason. If it's all that's important to you I will take it away painfully slowly and permanently and I will smile as I do it. What you've done to 15 is abominable and callous. What you're trying to do to Gladius is needlessly cruel and effectively baseless. What you've done in general is careless and thoughtless of everything other than your own lousy self who's worth less than the floorboards he sits on. You have absolutely no clue how shit works for a Descendant for being so arrogant about making one. Do you know how descendants work you brainless ass?"

"We get what we want and we will raise heaven and hell and smash them together if that's how we get what we want. Impossible is a word that does not apply to Descendants. We are about to kill that Triangle with only one casualty a measly Glitch Endoskeleton and we are going to make you regret everything you've done to Gladius everything you've done to 15 everything you've done period and the kicker is you will be coming along for the ride with US just so you understand exactly AND I MEAN EXACTLY WHAT THE HELL YOU'VE DONE!!"

"Oh, Gladius!" Roxxanne states, now facing Gladius with the clone body (while the real one continues to give Xavier the Golden Freddy stare). The black fluid does not vanish but her eyes return to a more normal state, which is kind of still scary as her sclera are totally blood red and she's suddenly smiling as if she wasn't just shouting at Xavier right then and there. "Xavier, do you want to know about what he did for his 15th attempt and what I'm going on about with 15? Do you already know? Let's just review: that thing you have to call your brother attempted to have a human consciousness do the dirty work of handling Irecreeper's workload in containing the extreme power. Surprise, it failed, and now it's possessing his little guiena pig, a completely innocent girl. She is being ordered to kill by something, whatever it is, and she can't resist. What's doing the ordering, logically, is either Xavier, Ire 15 or the Chaos Butterfly-hell knows which." Roxxanne states. As Toast is a bit of a robot, she uses the convenient plot-induced camera that she installed on one of her arms to confirm the events by showing what's going on at the tiny house. "I'm fairly sure that girl is familiar? I don't know who she is, to be honest, but I know that Xavier knew who she is, and I know that you know who she is. THAT'S the kicker-too much of a coward to do it himself so he opts to preserve his 'genius' by having her take the fall. I don't know who she is, and I wish I did-but you know. Xavier extinguished you in that house because you didn't really mean it. I hope that, if nothing else, this gives you the motivation to mean it, because very shortly, we WILL mean it. We won't kill him-it'll be hard for us to stop us from over-torturing him, in fact-but we will MEAN IT. Do you understand?"

Roxxanne prevents Gladius from doing anything rash-namely, leaving the Base. "We need to wrap business up with Bill first, because he's holding the key piece to fixing this mess. But once we do-whatever happens next...He'll regret it. He WILL regret it. Until then..."

Roxxanne proceeds to whistle over TOFS and DarkSide to make SURE she doesn't go anywhere even with this knowledge. "Xavier's house is impenetrable, but I have a strategy to get inside...But first, we need to kill Bill. You may be needed to rush into that fight for a brief bit-these two are here to make sure we keep to that. THEN we go after Xavier. I won't be joining you for that lovely affair immediately. I will have uglier business to attend to, more subversive business..."

"Excuse me." Roxxanne says, as she immediately jets to the Temmie Superstore, still near-vibrating in barely-contained rage, but skipping along and acting altogether too much like a little girl for her anger. She runs up to Glitch Temmie, smiling way too innocently for what she's about to say.

"So, you may or may not be aware of that...ASS, lying there at that 'abandoned' house, doing weird things. His name is Xavier, he WAS the Morality Core, and quite frankly what I've seen of him is abominable. He's bad for business-he'll be willing to go to any extent to do whatever he feels appropriate for his research. And I mean any extent, from what I understand. He needs to be restrained. He needs to be stopped. He's nearly killed his own sister out of petty irritation and her concern for his mental health-I don't want to know what he'd do to a Delivery Temmie if that constuites a crime worthy of death in his mind. I'm not sure why he was ever a Morality core to begin with, and while our current opinion on the situation inclines us to return it to him for maximized stability...There may be conditions that would all but guarantee that it would go to you instead. I'm not sure whether or not you can afford to supply help, but I'll leave this here for your consideration, m'kay? M'kay."

Roxxanne proceeds to purchase two more Temmie Teas for 2 gold. We should have three now, Ire (I bought one Last turn). None of these are to be used right now! I'll give the word.

Finally, she runs to the Laboratory passage, calmly walking to the end. She opens the door at the end of the hallway, as 15 can't be in two places at once and she's at the house. She's ready to bolt in case things go south, though.

@Cyan: No deal, that's a trick. He HAS a Skillpoint, but no mention is made of giving it to you.

@Battlefury: You may accept the YV Figurine if you can. You'll be healed this turn as well.

----Bill's Shrine (aside from deals)----

First, having accepted Bill's deal for double-damage, I immediately exploit it to move up to G8 and take advantage of the Fragile state on Bill to deal a TON of damage via a Basic Undeath Orb attack. (Bill Damage: 39-45/181. Exceeding 181 at all is bad for the purposes of this damage total and the Phaseskip strat). I then back off to E9. "Everyone! Group up, heal up! Get ready to kill next round, and take out those Sabers!"

@Mabuz: Move to L6, Icebolt the X-Saber. (X-Saber damage: 10-12; may be Frozen for a minicrit, probably slowed if not)

@Lyra: Get out of Range 3 of Bill and give Toast a Divine Shield.

@Toast: Move OUT of the way of Bill's Cane Laser zone. No-one's going to be at-risk so there's no point in tanking it. Rev up: Ice in safety.

@Siria: Move to E8 and snipe bill (Bill Damage: 54-60/181). Chug Green Sap Jar to cure Providence and heal a bit. Retreat to D7.

@HealerX: Hey, look, a Critaug! Move to C10 and fire on X-Saber 2 (X-Saber 2 Damage: 11-17). Retreat to B9 afterwards.

@Insert: Snipe X-Saber 1 with your Caneshot, make it Electric. (X-Saber 1 Damage: 16-18)

@SWAT Temmie 1: Move to C7, Shoot X-Saber 1. (X-Saber 1 Damage: 20-23) Retreat to B8.

@SWAT Temmie 2: Move to C7, Shoot X-Saber 1. (X-Saber 1 Damage: 24-28) Retreat to C8.

@Battlefury: Move to E6, swing at X-Saber 1. (X-Saber 1 Damage: 28-33; 33% Dog Chance?) Back off to C7.

@Jondanger: Shoot the X-Saber 2 and retreat to C9. (X-Saber 2 Damage: 22-31)

@Chlorin: Run to D8, fire on the X-Saber 1, unless it's a Dog or dead, in which case shoot X-Saber 2 instead. (If alive: X-Saber 1 Damage = 36-43 (RIP if all hit) ) (X-Saber 2 Damage: 29-41) You do not need to move from D8 as you're in range of both X-Sabers form there.

@Temmie SWAT 3: Move to E10 and use your Medical Flakes on yourself.

@Temmie SWAT 4: Pack into F14 and fire on X-Saber 2. (X-Saber 2 Damage: 33-46; if X-Saber 1 isn't a dog, 25-36)

@Numbersoup: Move to D9 and use Guardian to grant everyone on that side 7 AC. You should move after all Temmie SWAT, Chlorin, Me and Jondanger for the maximized Guardian Effect, though for strategy purposes only moving after Me and Temmie Swat 3 is required.

@Nomble: Enjoy your Healmore setup-A 3x3 grid who'd love your attention. Move LAST to benefit everyone the most. Aim it at the C8 Square to hit everyone. Some may be at full HP but the positioning is still useful. Move to C6 to fire it as well, and don't retreat, because that protects Insert a bit better and we want Insert alive.

This turn is a bit of a pause on the DPS on Bill. so we can regroup and take out the X-Sabers (and give Nomble some heals). We're going in heavy on DPS next turn as Toast gets her Whir ready, Siria can Overclock some shots, and me and Generic can both unload Mindcrushes on Bill.

I am 98% sure we have the next turn locked down. It would take extraordinarily bad RNG to take us out, and while extraordinarily bad RNG is not news, we can probably still secure a next-turn-kill.

----The Bonfire----

Toast has this covered, mostly.

Ayaze will

----Other----

Note to self:

Toreador Tophat+Temmie Ears = ? (+1 INT (maybe), +1 Summon Damage, +1 Temmie Archer, +1 Temmie Endoskeleton on kill)
Maybe just a Temmie Ears upgrade for +1 INT?

Spider Charm+Origin String+Epic Mage Robes = The Amazing Spider-Robes (Epic Mage Robes, but -25% Fire Resistance for all the Spider Charm's benefits and a bit more?)

Scalebrine + Broken Scale Necklace + Mythril =Wing of Chaos (or something) (All forms count Melee, Magic and Ranged for purposes of certain passives.)

Upgrade Gladius's Lightform. Special attention to the Ax and Gladius forms as she has bonuses with both items. Someone should get on this.

Mythril: Should have an unknown but definitely high amount of gold afterwards, probably enough for at least Two Mythril. Items that ABSOLUTELY NEED Mythril to Upgrade:
-Fallen Angel (Toast is good enough, probably no)
-Caudaceus Metalstorm (For a 'better than tiny' upgrade. Strong contender-YES. Immediate first pick.)
-Chroma Hammer (upgraded recently, probably no)
-Night's Bladed Seat (very powerful but has been waiting for upgrades a while now. Probably second. If we only get )
-Wolverine's Rival (Again, DarkSide is already good enough. This is exclusive with a NBS upgrade.)
-Scalebrine (Ranged/Melee/Magic identity, instead of just one, is really powerful and requires Mythril off the bat.)

If you are not on that list, you are also not in need of Mythril and can use other materials to upgrade. So don't ask for Mythril if you don't own any of those weapons.

Finally: We're getting a Free Item from the Tem Supertore, to my knowledge of Tem's deal, as well as a LOT of gold. We can easily buy the Purple Flake, which I will be using. As for the free item from the Superstore, the Temmie Armor Patch is the most likely and obvious choice. Beyond that, the runes sound nice.

Bonfire Orders:

@Sp33d0n, move to F10 and cast Melody on Shoot/Hot Pocket. Hot Pocket does more damage than a katana double slash, and both deal Electric.

@Hot Pocket, You'll have Melody, so you can act twice. Reload, then shoot the Tem of Cinders.

@Operative, Do the slashy thing on the Tem of Cinders.

Assuming no dodges, tem will be dead. Thats kind of the best we can do at this point.

HealerX gets a message from Roxxanne.

He dashes to C10, uses his Crit-Augmented attack on X-Saber 2, and jumps back to B9.

The Operative seems a little irritated at the Tem of Cinders for having managed to crit him... He's about to move and attack it, then stops, before blasting off into the sky on a jet of electricity.

_____________________________________

Seconds later, he touches down near the Rundown House. Somehow, it doesn't count as him having fled from the battle... It seems he only had the power to do this due to the fact that THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!... Operative. Funny... his eyes are normally green, but at the moment, they're an ominous electric yellow...

"XAVIER ELEM, YOU INSUFFERABLE BASTARD."

...Also, his voice is definitely not supposed to sound like that. There's a whole bunch of electrical sparks flying off of his body, out through exposed gaps in his armor plating, as he glares at the house... Or, more accurately, Xavier himself, staring uncannily accurately through the walls to his position regardless of where he happens to be. While he notices that the God Hand is almost inevitably present, he doesn't even bother sparing it a glance, just automatically dodging out of the way of whatever attacks are thrown his way by almost seeming to outright teleport away from them. His body language, and everything else, is strong enough indication to show just how pissed off he is.

"I saw your attacks on Chloe. Both of them. I was willing to turn a blind eye at the first, unsuccessful attack, but now that you've legitimately hurt her, this has become a more pressing concern. You heard what the person earlier mentioned, that guy who happens to be in a relationship with Chloe? Well, congratulations. You're looking at him now. So, while I am here, let me make a few things absolutely clear."

He raises his katana, the sword seeming to positively radiate with electrical energies, sparking up and down along the blade, then points the sword directly at where Xavier would appear to be if he were in line of sight.

"As somebody who happens to have been involved in a number of questionably ethical actions, I can safely and reliably inform you that attacking your own sister, regardless of the reasoning for doing so, is a remarkably asinine action to take. Now... During my time here, I've found that I've rather grown quite fond of Chloe. It's honestly refreshing to meet somebody who isn't just another damn psychopath like... hey, I shouldn't need to list examples, just breathe in a general direction and you're probably blowing air at a psychopath. So, when somebody happens to pose a threat to her, I am understandably going to be at odds with that somebody."

"I expected better from somebody related to her. Evidently, my expectations were set too high. Now, before I overload my circuits and accidentally detonate my own body like a continent-wide EMP, I had really better get on with what I came here to do. Specifically, threaten you. So, you had better listen."

At this point, if the God Hand is present and firing attacks, a large number of metal plates seem to almost rise up out of the ground specifically to surround it and block off whatever incoming fire Xavier may have intended to sling at The Operative. His power flares up, the sheer amount of electrical output rivaling that of several nuclear power plants, lightning shocks flying haphazardly around the terrain... although mercifully to the other Descendants in the area, they seem to arc away from people that The Operative doesn't want to hurt. Namely, the Descendants. Also, Gladius, if she's still in the area to witness The Operative at his worst.

"You have already doomed yourself to an unbelievably tortuous fate merely by harming Chloe. When, and this is not an if, this is a when... When I find myself able to get to you, I will personally ensure that you receive as much of a beatdown as I am able to give without killing you, unless you happen to either be a Morality Core, or Chloe or the other descendants manage to convince me to not torture you almost to death. That is the fate I shall make sure to inflict upon you. If you harm Chloe again, even if it is a single point of damage, nothing will stop me from personally trying out every single torture technique that I can find to make you pay for the harm you inflicted upon her. Shorting out your nervous system to make you have a seizure, sparking your body until your nervous-system-analogue burns out, using sandpaper and salt and splinters to strip you of whatever you happen to have that resembles skin, you name it, I will try it on you just to make you scream. And if you actually kill her outright, there is nothing in this world that will save you from me. Not the other Descendants. Not Chairitomb. Not Zetta. Not Flumpty. Not Chaos himself. YOU. WILL. DIE. PAINFULLY. And I will personally send you to hell myself."

He gives Xavier one last hell of a death glare, then the metal plates retract, and he rockets off into the sky again, out of sight before the God Hand can fire off a single shot of opportunity.


Wherever Gladius happens to currently be, a single metal plate much resembling The Operative's armor proceeds to extend out of whatever convenient prop happens to be nearby, bearing a note to her.

"To Gladius/Chloe. If you didn't see what happened, I just got really mad at Xavier due to his attacks on you, and may have somewhat threatened him with pain of torture, by which I mean I am heavily understanding what threat means. If you did see what happened... then, well, sorry you had to see and hear that. I'm scared of the idea of losing you, and seeing your health drop that quickly... may have triggered something I try to keep repressed. Namely, the explosive manner in which my anger manifests. So... sorry about that, either way. And if you saw or heard that happen and happen to disapprove, please don't be too angry with me. From, The Operative."
"PS. I'll avoid following through on that threat I made if you want me to not basically violate everything in the Geneva Convention."
"PPS. Please help me find a better outlet for my anger."

_____________________________________

Back in the Tem of Cinders battle, The Operative falls out of the sky, touching down at F7. There's a brief scattering of sparks upon impact with the ground, and one might note that The Operative seems heavily overloaded by recent events... He takes a slash at the Tem of Cinders and retreats to D7. If he for some reason then gets a shot of Melody, he then uses it to fire off a Shock bolt at the Tem of Cinders and retreats to D2 because the rules apparently allow for it if I read them correctly.

The Author hears something. This bothers him. He creates a clone, of Violant Ink. Somebody leaves, but it's vague as to who it was.

One of the Authors (spoiler alert: the clone) moves to F10, and uses Melody on Shoot.

The Author observes the next area over. But he doesn't see anything, and so comes back. The Clone disappears.

(when this battle finishes The Author might say something.)

<TURN ONE-HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-EIGHT>
Teag's Clone opts to go north of the Outer Wall. He finds a room filled with limbs and holy christ it's digusting augh-

cc: i ©an explain
cc: ...
cc: okay, maybe no(t)
cc: bu(t) i go(t)(t)a have a pla©e (t)o s(t)ore my limbs
cc: i(t)'s a hobby.

Battlefury then accept's Bill's deal. He loses 10 HP and gives it to Bill, in exchange for a Yung Venus Action Figure. It's pretty nice; the guns even shoot BB's. Alt then places the Bloodstained Foil in the inventory. Experiment 15 blankly stares at you.

aa: well =|
aa: that's certainly one way to stop me.
aa: ...
aa: thanks =D

Her face visibly contorts into the =D emote; her face is sideways and all.

aa: wait, so what am i to do now?
aa: go back-

In the blink of an eye, she vanishes, with absolutely no trace. She's somewhere else now, and you doubt that she's actually in your inventory. Darkside then goes over to help Chloe. His shade helps keep her steady and accompanies her as she heads back to the Ship. She takes a moment to thank you, her voice still weak.

ga: T-T-Thanks for your help.

She takes in a heavy breath, then exhales forcefully. She's agitated.

ga: Really...
ga: I can't really believe he did that to me.
ga: I know he's been sort of a gorilla lately, but I really thought that he was actually going to just apologize...

Once you've arrived at the MW Anti, you spend some time patching her up, sitting her down at the steps of the ship. This restores (7) HP to her. You then mention his loneliness.

ga: Yeah, loneliness does tend to do that, doesn't it?
ga: I just hope that's his only problem; loneliness, maybe I could fix.
ga: Deep-rooted mental problems; well, that's a little hard to fix. And torture wouldn't help with that, so good call on not torturing him...
ga: Anyway, thanks for helping me out. I'll just spend some time here to heal up naturally.
ga: Don't worry about me~

Chloe stands up, and heads into the ship. She speaks, heading towards a teleport pad.

ga: I'll just be resting in the cargo hold. Maybe I'll even get around to fixing the holes in it...

She warps away. Meanwhile, actual you heads to the Crossroads, and patches up. This fully restores your HP and MP. Roxxanne then accepts Bill's deal, obtaining x2 Damage in exchange for 40 SP. He also opts to let you slap Xavier extra hard, because that'd be sotra funny. Roxxanne then goes full nightmare mode. The X-Saber itself seems to be taken aback at your sudden form, and Xavier's voice reflects that.

ut: Y-Yeah, sure you can.
ut: But honestly; you think what I'm doing to my sister is baseless?
ut: She's ruined multiple years of work. Wouldn't you be at least somewhat pissed if somebody went out of their way to ruin your life?
ut: Honestly. It's so simple, and I'm appalled that you can't see my reasoning.

You then tell him he doesn't know how descendants work.

ut: Really?
ut: I know descendants. I have the best descendant.

He proceeds to give you a mostly wrong lecture on how descendancy works through the Saber, sounding smug and cocky as he speaks. At least he knows about how it relates to Godmodding, and the powers of "creativity" it grants. You then tell him that he'll regret stuff.

ut: Y-You really think you're so good?
ut: My prediction? The moment you take a step into my property, you'll be filled with bullets.

With that conversation over, your clone opts to talk with Chloe, following her down into the Cargo Bay. She's lounging on that SP-granting Couch in the Cargo Bay. She too, is taken back by your appearance. You then go to show her Experiment 15 through a camera feed that Alt has, because she's a robot.

ga: ...I see a panel of sorts?
ga: I don't see this girl you're talking about...

...Experiment 15 vanished earlier. Whoops.

ga: ...I wish I could help you identify her, but I'll need a picture, at least...

You then bring up the subject of torture on Xavier.

ga: ...Only do something awful like that if you really need to!
ga: I- really...
ga: D-Do you need a drink? You're really tense...
[small][small]ga: Also, please stop looking at me in that creepy, murder-y way; you're kinda scaring me...[/small][/small]

She remains in the Cargo Bay as you head over to the Temmie Shop. You talk to Glitch Temmie as you purchase two Temmie Teas, increasing your Chatterbox skill by 1.

"Help with Xavier? We don't really have anything against him; he's been here once or twice to purchase parts for his machines, but that's about it. Plus, you've already called upon us to fight a triangle, and that's dangerous enough. If it would help, I could give you a description of the parts he purchased. I have a list somewhere..."

To top off this ridiculous post, you then head to the Laboratory Passage (Teag opts to join you, too), and walk down it calmly, opening the door at the end. You walk straight into a room full of sentry guns. An alarm blares. A voice crackles through an intercom...

ut: My prediction was right. Who knew?
ut: (I can't believe Chaos's outhouse didn't fool you. It was foolproof, I say.)

The sentry guns rain hell upon both you and Teag. Both of you duck under the storm of lead that surges towards you, and you're soon back down the hallway. At least you've discovered a lower passage into his house...

Insert +1's his MP, while Clone HealerX heads to the cargo bay to pump Chloe full of needles. This fully heals her. She gives you a nice smile. The Operative then takes back his player's title of edgelord. He's actually rather spooked by your appearance; or maybe he's spooked by the fact that you're with Chloe. As you predicted, the God Hand attacks you, simply attempting to slap and smash you for unknown reasons. It misses every attack thanks to Rule of Edge.

ut: gorilla HONESTLY HOW THE HELL ARE ALL OF YOU gorrillaING INSANE WEIRDOS WITH SUPERPOWERS

...he doesn't respond for a couple of moments after. He does talk eventually, though, the God's Hand still attacking all the while.

ut: Okay, okay.
ut: If it really means that much to you, I won't touch your precious, precious 'girlfriend'.
ut: Just don't bring your stupid gorilla over, and this'll all blow over.
ut: I say stupid, because now I know what to proof my robots against, just in case you do mount a siege...
ut: Idiot.

You bolt off, and somehow send a message to Chloe. She opts to call you. If you don't pick up, she leaves a message.

ga: H-Heya! You know you could've called, right?
ga: Why's everyone's first response torture, anyway? Could you answer that for me?
ga: It's kinda infuriating...
ga: I do understand you, though. I wouldn't want you to die, either!
ga: ...Even if you do respawn. Death must still feel awful.
ga: ...and please don't torture him! It wouldn't help. At all.
ga: If you need an outlet for anger, though, I do have a few suggestions.
ga: We could simply hang out and rest a bit. The Cargo Bay's SNES is still here; maybe we could play that? Maybe there's a few games that you guys didn't use when crafting the generator. That'd be a pleasant surprise.
ga: Or if you feel like it, we could spar, if combat helps you. Or maybe I could just summon a Blaze for you to beat on.
ga: ...I'm not really sure what you like, actually.

...If you picked up, she awaits a response. Otherwise, she opts to say goodbye, and hangs up.

That was quite the long update, geez.

<ZONE 6>
SOUL takes the "no no no no no" memory, and teleports it straight onto the Monolith. Then, the "nox5" proceeds to [REDACTED] the [REDACTED], piercing [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] explosion [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] and suddenly, the Monolith is no more.

...I hear you can win this turn? Well. I must say that you've all played this fight extremely well; minimal deaths versus a person who can easily crank out 75 damage in a single shot! Well played, indeed.

<BATTLE: THE BONFIRE, TURN FOUR>
The Tem of Cinders is run through by the Operative. It staggers backward, beginning to melt. It lets out a long, drawn out, pained "h0i" as it melts. Once it's fully melted and is once again a white blob, it fades into dust...

...The Soul of Flames floats out of the body, then snaps in two, and dies. Victory!

I make sure i'm not at Xlavier's house, moving very close to the tem Superstore. I quickly fill the containment chambers with Mage Robes, before covering them in Attack Notices. I then take 40 Glitch Gel, and cover all the Containment Chambers in glitch gel.

Next, i take the Origin Flesh, 20 iron, and 10 titanium, and 33 wire bits. I make 3 of the wire bits into Circuit Boards to begin. Next, i melt down then of the iron ingots, but first i crave some generic protection runes into the Origin Flesh, expending 4 of my MP and 2 HP worth of my blood to fuel them. Then, i cover the Origin Flesh in said iron, but not before tempering the iron and modifying it to be slightly better in magical terms. I then spend the next few seconds genericly enhancing the result of this.

Then, i melt down the remaining 10 iron and titanium, before fusing them together into an alloy. Said alloy is called "Edgium", because for whatever reason it's jet black. Like, really black. Like, blackier than the edgy hoodie could ever hope to be. I then cover the Origin Flesh in said alloy, before sharpening the edges of the metal on some Swordstone, a material that happens to exist on nightmare mountain for no reason and i totally didn't just make up. I then crave multiple lines into the origin flesh.

I then proceed to add wiring to said lines, before craving a round shape in the middle of the Origin Flesh, where i place in Circuit Board. I then take all the Edgium Shavings/pieces lying about from the mound i craved into the origin flesh, and melt them down before using the remaining wirebits to create a glowing, red, eye, shaped like that of the Origin Zombie. Due to the Edgy propertys of Edgium, the wires glow red.

As stated on the Discord, this is supposed to add 1+ DMG and 1+ AC. Due to the eye, maybe a bit of accuracy too. As for a name, i'd use "The Merciless", because the edge is real.

Next up, i do the following at a somewhat slow and careful pace. First, i reshape the Saurite Tiara as the following: I draw lines, much use those used for the wiring in the Merciless, on the tiara. Suddenly, the areas with lines drawn upon them seem to sink in, the metal sightly compressing and densing, before adding in the wires. I then will the metal to cover up the wiring, very slowly and slightly stretching over the gaps. I then modify the previously-unmarked symbol that the Tiara is centered around, reshaping it into more of an eyesocket. I proceed to make an eye out of 5 Edgium (aka 5 titanium and iron), I then melt down 10 glass shards and make them into a lens, which i add unto the eye, before creating yet another Circuit Board and expending 10 more wire bits to make the eye functional, before attaching the Eye to the eye socket modification i just made with 2 wire bits.

The result is the Mind's Eye, a slightly modified Saurite Tiara with accuracy bonuses instead of penalty's.

I then equip the Mind's Eye and the Merciless.

SHOW THEM GODS AND DEITIES, generic.

Toast flips the Jadesaw around, grabbing it by the blade. She swings the motor portion through the air like a hammer, until...

CRACK!

Some invisible wall in front of her shatters, the cracks only briefly visible, before vanishing. There's a surge of light, and data from another video game enters the mindscape.

sniff
sniff, sniff
Do you smell that?
*It smells like guns.

Limit Break Expended! Rogue becomes Toast's new special.

Toast then tips her metaphorical fedora and flies away, into the outhouse lab. She dashes down the corridor and slides into the sentry room on her side, one legs raised and hand on her hip. There's the unmistakeable sound of a fusion core being primed to detonate.

Nerf it.

Toast's mechanical upper torso explodes, taking her and a fair chunk of the area with it. She then revives, and is possibly turned into swiss cheese by sentrys.

Or not.

Toast rolls her eyes, smiling,
Dang it, Roxxanne, why are you being so logical??

Her initial plan to explode being denied, Toast uses her inspiration a bit more constructively. She takes out the Infernal Torment, and slams it down on the OCDS. There's a satisfying sound of flamethrower/railgun combob slamming down on Omnidisciplinary Crafting Station.

:crafttime:
MSPal: It's Crafttime! with FC!

She takes the Glitch Gel, and chucks a bunch of it in the IT equivalent of the fuel tank. Although, given that flamethrowers are flamethrowers, that fuel ain't gonna last long. So, Toast smelts down 6 Titanium Ingots to use for a complimentary upgrade. She makes sort of a thinly-walled tube; hollow, and open at each end. At the top and bottom, pieces of phase matter are placed, and Toast runs some energy through it. She changes space, the traditional medium which the Phase Matter affects, to time. She only does this to one piece of phase matter- the piece at the top.

Krus, Da'stin-Rass, Teth-Ah'stin!

At that, the Phase Matter glows, switches pallete from a light pink to a pastelly lime and its properties with it. She places the newly crafted tube into the Torment's barrel, bottom first. Basically, a bunch of shenanigans will happen will occur while passing through the Phase Matter. Just take a moment, 30 seconds perhaps, to visualise the possible shenanigans. Set a timer, even. I'll wait.
...
...
...
Have you visualised them?
If so, great!
If not, you're probably doing it wrong. Try again.
Now that you have hopefully visualised the possible shenanigans, we can continue to the part where I define which shenanigans in particular will occur. The combination of time and space shenanigans cause duplications in the gel as it's fired, both back into the tank and forwards, towards enemies. This effectively refreshes the gel upon use with no paradoxes occurring!
This should theoretically give it some kind of damage boost, and a glitch effect. Probably. I don't know.

Next, she does an upgrade for the Potions of Regen.
...or maybe not since I am OUT OF TIME. Shwoop.

~~

Alt pushes a medium, mirror-esq. disc shape out of her arm. She taps it lightly in the centre, and hands it to Roxxanne when she passes.

...That should hold my memories of the last 3 minutes I've experienced. They're in colour, too!

Alt then apologises about breaking the man's house, and uses some of the salvaged bits from the whole and some wooden planks (shrunken) to help him fix it.

After she finishes that, and apologises again, she unshrunks herself and goes north, using the power of FLIGHT and GRAV-ORE to safely mine out the Gold there.

~~

SOUL goes through the door.

THIRD STRIKE X2 COMBOB.
