Galvix jumps up-and-down excitedly, and takes on a somehow even more excited grin.
"HowDoIPutThisOn? INeedToKnowSoICanDoThis! It'llBeAwesomeIKnowIt!"
Fury tilts his head.
"You heard him."
He glances back.
"As for me...I'll be back with Alpha again."
He disappears in a flash of red flame.
Galvix flinches, and spins around to look at Walpurgisnacht's resurrection. He stares in shock, going completely pale.
"...OhNo..."
Fury reappears by the Guardian, and, along with Shadow and Neo, they catch Alpha's movement, and look down. Shadow grins, waving.
"Welcome back, Alpha!"
Fury folds his arms, smirking, though a good deal of happiness and relief is visible in his eyes.
"Hey, you woke up! Great job pulling through!"
The Guardian smiles, and lowers his head down to the ground, looking down to Alpha.
"I am glad that you are awake...Sssir Alpha. Fury wasss tasssked by Gamma to keep watch over you while you recovered, and I accompanied him."
When Neo's pointer out, he nods, looking equal parts happy and proud.
"It was an honor to be of service. You are welcome."
He then blinks, and stares blankly for a moment.
"..."
He looks back to Shadow, and blinks again.
"...was that performed correctly?"
Shadow facepalms, but nods, smirking.
"Yeah, you did fine."
Everyone flinches as Walpurgisnacht is resurrected, and Shadow shudders.
"Yikes...that's a serious jolt of Negative Energy..."
Everyone looks over at the location of the massive Witch, and the Aspects jump back.
"Woah! Why was she the one Siggy brought back?"
Shadow blinks, and stares.
"...did you just call him Siggy?"
Actions:
Shadow pulls the Rugged Robo Wrecker from his back, and charges it to full strength. Then, using the second-post privilege, he performs an overhead slam with the tool into the ground, which creates a chain of volatile explosions which surges toward the Dark Magical Girls in an attempt to do AoE Damage.
By the way, Touch of Jaraxxus should totally be off of Arkus now. :P
Light sends a radiant pulse toward the mechanical Witch, attempting to damage and stun her, then he casts a reflective barrier around the AG's, protecting them from harm by bouncing attacks back at their sources.
There's a sudden crash as a large mass of vines bursts out from underneath the undead Walpurgisnacht, attempting to entangle and jam the massive mechanical monster's inner workings. Spirit steps out from the Sanctuary, glaring bitterly at the towering Witch, steeled by memories of the trauma caused by the monster. S/he performs a second action by causing the vines to sprout massive, metallic-fanged jaws, and the newly-ferrophagous plants snap down on Sigma for a double-strike.
Arkus begins chanting an incantation, spending a turn to focus his energies. Then, with a shout of "Incendus!", a large gout of violet flame surges from his wand, pouring over the Dark Magical Girls.
Galvix hurriedly has Aarik help him equip the weapons system, and then launches what he can at Walpurgisnacht, seeing the reincarnated Witch as the most imminent threat. He then sends an electric jolt at Sigma in an attempt to overload his circuits.
Neo takes a support role on these two turns, attempting to place a nanite-induced regen on the Brontosaurus and the Guardian, and trying to passively buff the damage done by the rest of the AG's.
The Guardian lunges at a Dark Magical Girl, his venomous jaws snapping shut on the fallen hero, and he shakes the hapless entity like a ragdoll before flinging it to the side and diving into the ground, using his second move to burrow.
The Brontosaurus rears up, and brings its front feet crashing down on said DMG, stomping it into the dirt. It then bellows, and braces itself, ready to evade or block an attack.
The jagged shards of foreign metal embedded into Sigma's chassis begin to flake slightly, showing signs of corrosion and serious disrepair. Some tiny spots of what is apparently rust can be seen on the pieces.
Plus three to Tabbune.
Has anyone talked to Talist, perhaps on the Discord, maybe? School is making things a bit iffy for me, but, does he have any plans on returning?

@Auriga: Tabbune (who is male) is actually charging +4 per turn, as the GM is speeding up charges by +3 per turn so we don't get screwed. We usually don't list self assists, though. Also, giving back assists to people that assist you is usually appreciated.
1.2.1 Hugmaster+Carla suddenly appears, in a dubious existence between canon and non-canon leaning towards the latter. I then shamelessly plug my memo game, without giving any references to what it is in front of Sigma. Sigma is confused, as is Hugmaster, although Hugmaster already knows meta elements of [REDACTED]Quest.
Before this entire attack becomes a shameless plug, Carla takes a step forward, blank eyes fixed on Sigma, before writing a note. To comply with international censorship laws, it says:
#gorillasoutforharambe
A troop of gorillas descend out from the ether, calling HARAMBE into the wind, before shouting, "GORILLAS OUT FOR HARAMBE!". More gorillas appear, again, and again, and again, shouting HARAMBE over and over again, multiplying again and again, until the Pantheon is filled with shouts of HARAMBE. Every person who supports #Justice For Harambe appears, and charges Sigma, as the gorillas step back, making way for the descent of something. Firstly, mememancer Meemstar crashes down, causing the Pantheon to shake. Sigma gets right into the noose, and Meemstar hangs him, before forcing him to drink many gallons of Mountain Dew.
The memes get to his mind, before he sees a fraction of the Cube. This fraction causes him to stop for a few seconds, as Meemstar gets back into the noose, and disappears. The memes spread again, and again, and again, as the gorilla horde call out to their lord, Harambe. He descends onto the Battlefield, and roars, before Sigma stops, and realises that perhaps he should have changed alignment to something that wasn't Undecided.
Harambe steps, and rage itself, a fraction of that of the Alpha and Omega but still massive, fills the battlefield. Stone cracks. Flora dies. Fauna runs. Justice reigns supreme. Harambe charges forward, seeking justice. Sigma possibly considers that murdering everything in existence was a terrible idea, as his mind is rendered into filthy memes, before being punched in the face by an Transcendent Gorilla.
Hugmaster-dominated Carla then holds a Level 0 version of the Happy Cube in her left hand, and a note and bottle of Mountain Dew in her right, while she stares at Sigma's poor mental state.
HOPE vs DESPAIR [12/60] [+3 from Speed, +2 from Tabbune]
The Sisterhood [7/75] [+3 from Speed]
+3 to Tabbune. If you assist me, I will try to return it.

A slightly more insane than usual DTG attack, that was actually just an hallucination. /null
Update time, people! FLÄSHYN! (Let's do this!)
If anyone feels like handling my characters, I will be forever grateful. PM me if you're interested.
Fraissa uses a bunch of Dandelions Blastseed Plants to damage Sigma. (Where are these from?)
The Thunderbat attacks Sigma for 5000, then chains onto the Weapons Platform for 3000. Treant applies it's barrier to the Lion. Manasite Slime attacks the Weapons Platform and Sigma for 3000 each. Rofella attacks Sigma for 14000, and the Floral Wolf attacks for 3000.
Jon expends his Charge on...
75000 Damage to Sigma. What. Why would you... What the heaven is WRONG with you? Are you insane? You could do a lot better, and you did... THAT?
Xcano revives and attacks D 4 C. Are you people actually stupid? He's on your side, dimwit!
Jack? Andrew? Hugmaster!Carla does a Justice while controlling a filthy Memestar.
Oh. You. I know about *you.* Keep your filth out of my battlefield. And you ask what our Alignment is? I'm *sure* Auth is ready to tell.
As Sigma needed to have summoned Walpurgisnacht note I'm going to need to do Sigma first. I'm not doing an action for Alpha and Company or Aarik because I'm not sure they did anything.
Sigma Curb Stomps Jon. He is now Deeply Wounded.
Walpurgisnacht gets resummoned. Has 40000 Health. Summons Dark Magical Girls to attack in it's stead. Currently has Two.
But that's not all! Call now-
Hello?
Congrats! You win...
Heh. I'm baaaaaack...
The Black Cloud erupts from Sigma, and goes to the ground, reforming into a shape that looks like Speed-
I'm certain you all remember who I am. But for the twits who don't, my name is Ex. I'm here to make your life...
Ex then snaps his arm outwards (and into place), causing blood covered golden chains to stab Walpurgisnacht. About nine times.
I'll handle this.
Ex twists his arms with several cracks, changing into an impossible position a few times. The chains act like puppet strings, with Ex commanding Walpurgisnacht to force the Dark Magical Girls to attack Arkus.
He also starts singing Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life
from several places at once in a terrible off-key tone. Imagine it to be somewhat creepy, considering the situation.
Then The Party do their things.
Shadow uses his double action to do an AOE. 1000 Damage to Walpurgisnacht and both Dark Magical Girls...
Summoning another Dark Magical Girl.
Heh.
Light also summons a Dark Magical Girl. The Stun would have taken effect as a Double Action, but 3000 damage regardless. He also reflects the first attack on the next turn.
Spirit attempts to rip Walpurgisnacht asunder. Two more Dark Magical Girls on the side. 3000 damage to Walpurgisnacht.
Oh hello.
Ex manipulates his voice to sound like Kai.
Again.
Um, Sweet Spirit? Would you mi nd NOT TEARING MY MECHA WITCH TO SHREDS.
He summons a facsimile of Kai. In a considerably more dead fashion. Literally just the throw them off. Arkus uses Incendus on the Dark Magical Girls. All six of them. For 500 Damage each.
Backed up by Speed and Fira, using a nice batch of Aeroja and Firaja, dealing a further 1000 damage to each girl. Because.
Aairk and Galvix prepare, then open fire on Walpurgisnacht. 6000 damage. And three more girls.
The Guardian kills a DMG. Then the Brontosaurus kills another one.
The foreign metal grows from Sigma.
Ex doesn't even bat an eye, and by turning his arm backwards, he rips the metal out, into a pile... that's getting bigger?
And Ex melds more metal into the gaps the metal left.
Now. Who doth come at me next?
Suddenly, a slip goes Jon, Infinity, Speed, Shadow, Auriga, Fraissa and Carla. They can each select one item from the Trope Co Catalogue. Your selection will be permanent, and supply a permanent effect.

Huh. What's this joke of a mechanical monstrosity?
Fraissa heals herself. She then uses her Scepter to increase Rofella's damage by 5000 for the turn. The Thunderbat attacks Walpurgisnacht for 5000 and kills the resulting Dark Magical Girl. The Manasite Slime attacks Walpurgisnacht for 3000 and also kills the Dark Magical Girl. Rofella attacks Sigma for 19000. The Floral Wolf attacks Walpurgisancht for 3000. The Pack Lion and the Scaled Bear follows and attacks Walpurgisnacht. The Fruit Treant applies it's barrier to the Floral Wolf.

Shadow stares, and then he growls, straightening his hat.
"Oh, you should've stayed in that robot..."
He takes the Pummel Gun, and, after lining up a shot, blasts shells at the chains connecting Walpurgisnacht to Speed.EXE, attempting to separate them in order to remove .EXE's buffs from her. He then notices the Trope Co. leaflet blow by his head, and he catches it, opening it up. He examines it, and tilts his head.
"Trope Co., huh...? Seems interesting..."
Does this apply to all the Aspects, or just Shadow?
Light scowls, and flares his wings wide.
"Miserable fiend..."
He thrusts his hand to the side, causing an ornate longsword, composed of holy light, to manifest in his grip. He corkscrews forward, carried by his radiant wings, and then unleashes an assault on the group of Dark Magical Girls, spinning in a wide arc to cut through the crowd, and reflect projectiles.
Spirit, hearing .EXE's mockery, shudders at the realization that he's returned, but develops a determined look, and s/he searches for him in order to fix him with a withering glare. Their eyes fall upon .EXE's illusion, and s/he takes a step back, shock washing into their eyes for a moment, but s/he shakes their head, closes their eyes, and their hand goes to the thin vine around their neck, clutching the small pendant that Kai gave to them. S/he takes a deep breath, and opens their eyes, revealing a look of newfound confidence.
'No more tricks... I know Kai is alive! She and I share an unbreakable bond, and I can feel her life, her spirit, her love...you haven't hurt her, and you can't hurt her! I won't let you!'
S/he sweeps their arms, and the carnivorous plants continue their attack on Walpurgisnacht with a renewed fervor, rending into the creature's joints.
Arkus narrows his eyes, and manifests his staff, twirling it in a defiant display.
"You dare show your face on the battlefield again?"
He channels his powers, and, with an incantation of "Restora!", casts a group heal spell on himself, the other Aspects, and their Entities.
Galvix stares, shocked. He then growls annoyedly, putting the weapons system into focus.
"ThingsJustKeepGettingBetter,Don'tThey?"
He shouts down to .EXE, taunting him.
"Hey,WickedUgly!"
He switches on the weapons system, raises a hand crackling with sparks, and grins.
"CheckThisOut!"
He slams his palm down on the controls, sending a surge of electricity through it, boosting the machine's effects, and he fires upon the DMGs as crowd control.
Neo narrows his eyes.
"You are awful."
Shadow blinks.
"...we may have to work on your combat banter, buddy."
Neo blinks, then looks back at .EXE, and sends a storm of metal needles at the Dark Magical Girls.
The Guardian hisses, and glares at .EXE.
"You deplorable, sssoullesss creature...I shall aid in dessstroying you...but firssst..."
He lunges, attempting to bite into Walpurgisnacht while the others are attacking her.
The Brontosaurus swings its great tail, attempting to swat the Dark Magical Girls into Walpurgisnacht.
Meanwhile, the foreign metal flakes further, beginning to corrode considerably.
Plus three to Tabbune.

Coolant Jammer Beta, Model 42
Well color me surprised. I expected this to be long over. But, if I remember correctly, it's pretty close to the end. Even if I did rejoin, I can't guarantee how long I would be able to post before the next month-long hiatus. Ah well. I'll see what happens. If that reboot ever comes to fruition, expect me to be more active there.
EDIT: there hasn't been any new post since this one, and the last before it was on the 14th, exactly one week ago. This is very distinctly worrying. Did school mess everything up or something? I notice progression has been much more slow than it was in the summer, it took me like five minutes to work back to where I last posted.

SECOND TURN BECAUSE THAT'S A THING NOW
—
Fraissa attacks Sigma by throwing thorns at him. She then uses her Scepter to boost the Pack Lion's damage by 5000.
The Thunderbat, Pack Lion, Scaled Bear, and Manasite Slime attacks Sigma for 21000 damage. They deal 6000 damage to the Weapons Platform due to their chain damage. The two Frostalp Gorillas attacks Sigma for a total of 8000 damage (before Fervorous Assault stacks because that depends on Walpurgisnacht and math). The Fruit Treant applies a barrier to one of the Frostalp Gorillas. The Floral Wolf attacks Sigma for 3000.

@Speed: How many DM Gs are currently on the field? I kinda lost count.
Sigma .readme
Sigma grunts, recovering from the mind-bending attack of last turn.
This is starting to bore me. Let's get this over with, shall we?
Multiple beams sweep the field, attacking everything present.
He then gives a Death Glare to Ex when the metal is ripped from his body.
That really hurts, you know! Whatever.
Alpha slowly, but surely, gets up, waving off attempts to help.
I'm fine. To answer Fury's question, though, he probably summoned her specifically for the sole reason of numbers. How he knows she appeared here, or that she even had that ability, though, I don't know, but I can tell you this: He's trying to buy time.
For what?
I have no idea. And to be honest, that terrifies me.
Aarik continuously fires at Walpurgisnacht using the ammunition Galvix supplies, then looks over him with a look that's somewhere between maniacal and worried, but is leaning closer to the former.
I should probably mention that I've never tested this weapon. Like, at all. So I don't know when it's going to blow up, 'cause that's what usually happens when I build something.
Looking over Galvix's shoulder, he shouts out to the Armed Armors.
Hey, Beta, can I get you over here for a moment?
Yeah, I'm on my way!
Excusing herself, she runs to the Vault Hunter.
What's up?
This is a bit embarrassing now that I think about it, but do you have any spare programs I can use? And, like, maybe keep?
Beta stands there, thinking.
You know what? Yeah. One of Speed's friends actually made a copy of Delta. I'm getting a bad feeling about this whole situation, so it's probably better if someone else hangs onto it for a while.
As she hands Aarik the drive, she pulls it back for a moment.
I'm taking this back when this is over, just so you know.
Alright, that's fair. I'll probably just end up using him for some quick calculations, anyways.
Good to hear. Even though it's a copy, it's still my brother.
As confusing as that may be for you, I'll take care of him, don't worry.
Thanks. That means a lot.
Beta places the drive in Aarik's hands and walks away. Aarik eyes the drive curiously.
Alright, here's hoping for system compatibility.
Grabbing a device on his waist, he eventually finds a port that he slides the drive into. After a few moments of the device (noisily) processing the data, a holographic prompt appears:
RUN PROGRAM? [Y] [N]
Tapping [Y], the device (which has been deduced to be a computer of sorts) makes the same clattering sound for a few moments longer. When the noise stops, a small voice can be heard emanating from the computer.
Ah. I was wondering when I would come into use.
You... don't need to be caught up?
I read the audio/visual data stored on this device, allowing me to learn all of the events that occurred between your arrival and now. While you should learn to turn off your apps, in this one case, it turned out to be beneficial.
I- You- What?! That is a complete and total breach of privacy!
If you wanted privacy, you should not have installed me into your... ECHO Device, it is called?
Aarik begins to form a counter-argument, then stops halfway through, opening and closing his mouth soundlessly. He eventually sighs and waves his arms in exasperation, shaking his head.
Alright, fair point.
Placing the back on his waist, he flips his GausstarTM so that the "barrel" is resting on the ground.
Okay, now it's time for business. Given all of the current variables, what are the chances that my plan's gonna work?
I would need information on your plan before making such a guess.
I'm gonna launch myself at Sigma.
Assuming you are planning on using the methods I believe you are planning on using, less than zero.
So, better than most of my plans. Got it.
How do "most of your plans" usually end?
You don't want to know.
I am sorry?
Stepping onto the neck of the Gausstar while making sure to keep his balance, Aarik looks at the others on the stage with him.
You may want to move back a bit.
Looking back at the monstrosities in front of him, he grips the trigger and pulls it. The resulting blast flattens the stage, creates a large amount of smoke and dust, and... successfully sends Aarik sailing.
YEEEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAWWWW!!!!
How is this even possible?!
Little trick I learned from a group of people: Kick reason to the curb! Nice people. I especially liked the toothy one.
Spinning forwards, he disembarks his "vehicle" mid-air, grabs the neck, and rights himself just in time to slam the weapon into Sigma's weapons platform (all of which was completed in a single, fluid motion), managing to completely flatten the right half of it, or at least make a massive dent, causing the large machine to kneel. All the while, his Fedora of Asskicking, in a clear show of defiance to the laws of physics, remains perfectly affixed to his head without any outside help.
You just had to do it, didn't you? You just had to make things worse for yourself. Well, ask and ye shall receive, as the saying goes.
The top half of the metallic titan begins to twist around, causing the loud screeching of metal on metal to fill the air. Halfway through the turn, two arms unfold from the shell as it rotates back, revealing a humanoid shape, which stands and turns to face the amassed warriors.
Round 2. All out. Let's go.
Sigma has become Sigma Ultima!.readme
You're gonna wanna get some charges going, just saying. Also, the finale to my characters' plot officially starts now, so don't touch that dial!

Suck it, troper!
Okay, so... I haven't posted in quite some time. So excuse me if I'm a bit... clueless.
I step onto the battlefield.
Ah, it's been too long. I miss the thrill of battle. But now I'm back and... I have no idea what's going on. Time to do a bit of reading.
I see that there are 145 pages.
...Yeah, not going to touch that. Alright so before I do anything, I take time to assess the situation and hopefully it'll become apparent to me.
Inventory:
Two katana blades, an AM MRS-4 rifle with an underbarrel grenade launcher, five canisters of fear gas, and a few frag grenades.
And some orange juice. No reason.
Okay, it's update time! Still lacking a witty comment. What is up with me?
Jon orders a Portable Hole. This saves you once from Death, keeping you on Mortally Wounded. The effect is reapplied if you die and respawn.
Jon smacks Sigma with an idea. How the heaven did you do that? You shouldn't be able to attack someone with metaphysical objects! 3000 damage!
That joke of a mechanical monstrosity is a witch. I think. I honestly have no idea, I'm just manipulating it into killing things.
Fraissa heals herself for a stage and by that I mean doubling her barrier, because she is already on full health, and uses the Scepter to increase Rofella's damage this turn.
The Thunderbat attacks Walpurgisnacht for 5000 and kills a DMG. Two more spawn to take it's place. The Manasite Slime attacks Walpurgisnacht for 3000 and... summoning one more DMG to take the place of the place of the DMG it killed. Rofella attacks Sigma for 14000. The Floral Wolf attacks Walpurgisnacht for 3000. The Pack Lion and Scaled Bear attack for a total of 6000. 5 DM Gs result from those three attacks. The Fruit Treant applies it's barrier to the Floral Wolf.
Fraissa summons two Frostalp Gorillas. They whale on Walpurgisnacht for 8000, because I write these before working out the field stats. 2 more DM Gs.
Fraissa also claims the Elite Mook. This gives you a permanent entity that acts like a player. You can summon *any* elite mook, it doesn't need to be Nature related, even though I know you will. Examples are Militia Lieutenants, Badass Enemies, Super Mutants or Hammer Bros. If the entity runs out of Health, it dies. It takes two turns to summon a new Mook.
Continuing my not checking Walpurgisnacht's HP before writing this, Shadow assaults the Golden Chains connecting to Walpurgisnacht. Damaging Walpurgisnacht and kicking DMG production into overdrive, 3 DM Gs summoned.
Buddy, the chains are made of something a bit more sturdy than gold. That being Tungsten Carbide. Plated in Gold. And protected with Souls. I wonder how many souls were destroyed protecting these chains?
It only affects Shadow, as I think he's the primary Aspect. It'll affect the rest if they reconverge as the Party.
Light does some fancy sword crap. On all the DM Gs. Dealing 167.5 Damage to every DMG, even ones that aren't there yet because I'm too lazy to work out how many are here at this point and how much damage you'd do.
Oh, yes. I'm sure you can. So tell me, will you, where is Kai at the moment? If you say "The Sanctuary"... you might want to double check that. Let me tell you a secret. SHE ISN'T THERE.
Ex noticed that motion of them them touching the pendant on their neck.
Aww, isn't that cute? I wonder how your going to live with yourself after you find out that she is missing and never coming back. You knew I was coming. You did nothing to stop it. Does that make it your fault?
Ex is slightly annoyed at Spirit attacking Walpurgisnacht some more.
Yes, Arkus. I *do* dare to show my face again. Sigma here needed a bit of a boost.
Arkus uses Restora on all wounded Aspects and their Entities. Yeah k.
Ex pulls up a pillar of white fur and leans on it.
That's the best insult I've ever heard, Neo.
The sarcasm is tangible.
Neo fires a needle storm at the DM Gs. As there is aproximately 16 at the moment... 187.5 Damage to all DM Gs.
The Guardian bites Walpurgisnacht, summoning another DMG.
The Brontosaurus kills a DMG and deals damage to Walpurgisnacht. Summoning a DMG.
More from Fraissa and Company!
Mind breaking up your action for me? Makes my life heaps easier.
Fraissa attacks Sigma with thorns. 3000 Damage. She then buffs the Pack Lion. The Thunderbat, Floral Wolf, Pack Lion, Scaled Bear, Frostalp Gorillas and Manasite Slime all attack for a total of 32000 damage. The Treant applies a barrier to an Ape.
If she wasn't dead before, she is now.
Ex snaps his neck backwards to talk to Sigma.
Can you still see the metal? How it's rusting, corroding, multiplying, right there? Me leaving it there isn't going to do you much good. A bit of pain now is better than even more pain later, isn't it? I don't want you dead.
He snaps his neck back into place.
In the meantime, Aarik launches himself at Sigma. His Nice Hat insists that the laws of physics don't apply to it, so it stays on Aarik's head despite Physics' protestation. I'm gonna deal the same damage as the Nukem, dues to the Gausstar not being a weapon that Aarik has. So you swapped too. So 22000 damage to Sigma, and killing 3 DM Gs.
Sigma becomes Sigma Ultima.
Now things get interesting. My turn.
Ex twists his arms a whole bunch, breaking them in at least 4 different places each without noticing. This causes Walpurgisnacht to command all 14 Alive DM Gs to utterly decimate Aarik. 42000 Damage.
Hunter fires up the cannon on VIXIV and fires away at Sigma. 7000 Damage. (I think my Bomb should be ready, but I keep forgetting to alter the cooldowns for everything.)
Speed and Fira claim the Holy Hand Grenade, adding 25% to all outgoing damage. Because they infuse Speed's sword with it. They test out the new Holy Blade on Sigma, dealing 3750 damage.
Since Walpurgisnacht is defeated, the chains connecting disconnect. Ex, instead, splits them up into enough smaller chains to connect to each of the DM Gs in five places, each wrist, each ankle and the top of the head.
It's...

The group steps back, though Shadow and Fury appear a bit hesitant. Fury tilts his head.
"Okay... That's concerning...the last thing we need is havin' the field overflowing with monsters..."
Galvix blinks, and looks to Aarik, looking much the same way, though having more childish excitement than psychotic glee.
"AreYouSerious‽ You'reHavingMeRunAnUntestedMachine‽ OneThatCouldViolentlySelfDestructAtAnyTime...?"
He hesitates, then laughs excitedly.
"Man,INeverGetToHaveThisMuchFun!"
He gives a devilish look in Sigma's direction.
"Well,Let'sMakeTheMostOfIt,Then!"
The group catches Sigma's metamorphosis, and Commander Protoh grimaces.
"...that's a big problem..."
Shadow slightly tips up the brim of his hat, and pulls down his scarf, revealing his face. He gives .EXE a cold smile, hatred burning in his eyes.
"Souls, huh? Honestly, I'm not surprised...I wouldn't put it past you. Well, I think, if they're bound to this thing, and if they've been in your grasp, especially, then they must have suffered for a very long time.... At this point, I think, if I actually did play a part in their dissipation, then it's actually more of a desired last gift..."
He returns his hat and scarf to the usual obscuring position, and takes a defiant stance.
"You're not going to guilt-trip me..."
Ah, I see...well, I think I've picked...but...just let me run it past you once. I'll PM you.
Shadow, using a weapon charge, conjures a fan of poison-coated blades, small and triangular in shape, which he holds like a hand of cards, and, with a sweep of his arm and a flick of his wrist, he sends them toward one of the remaining Dark Magical Girls. As it cuts in, he reveals that each blade is connected to a thin steel line looped around his fingers, and he sharply pulls down on them, attempting to out-puppeteer .EXE and get the DMG to attack her peers.
Light blasts a beam of pure, unfiltered sunlight at the crowd of DMGs, and glares at .EXE.
"You unspeakable Demon! Nay, you are a pox on the very name 'Demon'! I know of Demons with much more worth than you!"
Spirit recoils in shock, and an agitated hiss slices through the air.
'What‽ What did you do‽'
S/he shuts their eyes, and searches for signs of Kai in the Sanctuary. Unable to find her, s/he searches elsewhere, rapidly sweeping over the battlefield with their consciousness, and then over the entire surrounding area, eventually attempting to directly attune to her signature. S/he suddenly opens their eyes, which have taken on a dark sheen, accompanied by a tigerlike snarl.
'You complete and utter scumbag! No! It's not my fault! I will find her, and I will rescue her from whatever unbelievable Hell you've trapped her in! But, before that, when I get the chance, I'm going to put an end to your evil with my own hands!'
S/he growls in anger, and causes the two carnivorous plants to burst into multiple clusters of woody, thorn-covered vines which attempt to rip Sigma apart at the seams.
Arkus glares angrily, growling.
"You simply do not know when to leave well enough alone...you and that abomination of technology and magic...the world would be a better place if you were simply to perish immediately...
He closes his eyes, and slams his staff into the ground, creating a bubble of violet energy.
"Bastium!"
He casts a healing shield spell, focusing on the Guardian this time.
Neo suddenly glares, and clenches his fists, beginning to rise into the air on a large chunk of ferrous rock that has been torn out of the ground by his rapidly-spiking Magnetic field.
"At least I made an attempt, you sick, pompous, infernal bastard. I cannot possibly fathom just why you even exist. Your life has absolutely no apparent purpose besides ending those of others, and making one poor Royal Heir's life a living Hell. I may be strange compared to most beings, but at least I arguably fit into the order of the world. You are an unnatural plague on Reality, and you offer no benefits to any other living thing. That means it would barely be seen as morally questionable to wipe your repulsive visage off the face of the earth, and, added to that, it is safe to say that, if you simply trudged off to curl up and expire, there would be none in the entire world worse for it, and everyone who ever knew you would in fact rejoice if they learned of your sad, pathetic demise. You truly are a meaningless, sniveling little cur."
Neo punctuates his final word with a stomp of his foot, causing a field of razor-sharp iron spikes to jut up from the ground underneath Sigma's feet. The others all stare in speechless awe at Neo's sudden tirade, most astonished most by the fact that, accompanied by a violent reverberation, he never raised his voice above his usual synthesized monotone. Galvix eventually manages to recover from his shock, and focuses his efforts onto Sigma, though he shouts back at .EXE.
"YouHeardMyBrother! YouHaveNoPurpose! You'reUseless! YouCan'tWin! JustLeaveAndNeverHarassAnyoneEverAgain!"
The Guardian burrows, attempting to create a plan.
"Never have I heard an insssult that containsss sssuch a complete deconssstruction of a perssson...I am sssurprisssed..."
The Brontosaurus charges at Sigma...over the top of the Dark Magical Girls. Once it reaches the maniacal mechanical mastermind, it rams into him at full speed.
The scrapheap's corruption spreads further, beginning to seep into the fraction of Sigma's hull that .EXE surgically removed.
Plus three to Tabbune.

Fraissa looks at the falling Wallpurr. Well, whatever it is, you have a pretty bad taste in reanimation. She then zaps a nearby floating DMG from the sky with nature mana. Pesky wraiths.
She aims her staff at her Pack Lion, giving it +5000 attack damage this turn.
The Thunderbat, Pack Lion, Scaled Bear, and Manasite Slime attacks Sigma for 21000 damage. 2 of the attack hits the DMGs from the chain aspect of their attacks.
The two Frostalp Gorillas attacks Sigma for a total of 8000 because they just retargetted from attacking Wallpurr.
The Fruit Treant applies a barrier to the other Frostalp Gorilla.
The Floral Wolf attacks Sigma for 3000.
Using her Elite Mook, she summons a Heartbound Hawk.

...so, it's been more than a month...pretty quiet on this front.
...Talist expressed an interest in maybe coming back, which is cool...
I'd like to apologize to everyone who's still following this thread for my absence. I'm currently in the middle of a big move, and there's no end in sight, it seems, but I am still wanting to continue this, so please hold on for a bit longer. Again, I am so sorry about this, it is unacceptable.
Suck it, troper!
@Alpha: I get that. My family plans on eventually moving somewhere else in the city, too, so that's going to be a big change. I know I won't be able to walk to school anymore.
So, I understand completely if you guys don't want to take in a nooblet at this point, especially given that this would be a little thread necromancy, too, but if there's any chance you'd be willing to take me in, is there any way I could get a concise recap? Just the few posts up there are intimidatingly long, and there's well over a hundred pages...
Hey, you. Yeah, you. Chin up. Things get better.
Wannabe roleplayer.
I would love to join in if we were starting a new game, too. Sorry about the necromancy, I literally just found this!
I think I'm a bit of a munchkin. Tell me if you can help!
THIS IS MY FINAL FORM
- Casts Necro++**
Wait. Not yet. I was gonna...
But not yet? Only four people have posted.
DOUBLE POSTS, ACTIVATE! * **
