| 21 | * Allies: For Lucy, it varies. |
| 22 | * Opposed By: [[Pantheon/ReligionAndFaith YHVH]], [[Pantheon/{{Heroism}} Superman]], [[Pantheon/{{Superheroism}} Batman]], and [[Pantheon/{{Leadership}} Darkseid]] |
| 23 | * Enemies: '''[[Pantheon/LandAndSeaTravel Travis Bickle]]''' and any and all taxi drivers, both on the mortal plane and the Pantheon (especially non-speaking English ones), [[Pantheon/{{Costumes}} Albert Wesker]], [[Pantheon/FormsOfImmortality Alex Wesker]], [[Pantheon/LivingWeapons Alexia Ashford]], [[Pantheon/{{Trickery}} Victor Von Doom]], [[Pantheon/{{Planning}} Doc]] [[Pantheon/DeathManipulators Scratch]], [[Pantheon/VillainousSuccess Mr. Shadow]] |
| 24 | * "I AM EVERYWHERE." This is the message in which every single cellphone and computer screen read. Then...she came. Out in front of the House of Knowledge, a dark, bubbling mass appeared. The mass then grew, taking shape, until it's form was that of a woman with dirty blond hair and clad in a slinky black dress, with a pair of expensive pumps completing the outfit. Lucy has arrived, having quite ''literally'' [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence ascended to the Pantheon]]. |
| 25 | * Before shedding her mortal coil (quite literally!), Lucy was a student studying overseas in Taiwan. Then her boyfriend was killed and she was made to be a drug mule for the powerful synthetic drug known as [=CP34=]. Her path to godhood begun when one of the packets ruptured, releasing a massive dose of the drug into her bloodstream. End result? She developed various pre-coded abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis, mental time travel, and the ability not to feel any discomfort, such as pain. |
| 26 | * Due to her unique status of actually knowing everything, ''every single deity'' in the Pantheon are getting rather annoyed by her 'Do-as-I-say-because-I-know-everything' attitude. Not like Lucy didn't want to know everything, but that's the hand dealt to her. |
| 27 | ** Of course, every once in a while, whenever Lucy tends to rub the deities the wrong way, Batman and Captain America smack Lucy with a couple of Nerf bats, telling her while this is indeed the Pantheon, 'this is not her world.' |
| 28 | * Lucy is also the only Goddess in the entire Pantheon that could (and would) get away with ''just about anything,'' and no one could stop her. Of course, while the Main House can't do anything about her status, they have set in place a couple of failsafes to keep her (and her steadily-growing powers) in check. |
| 29 | * As for the drug known as [=CP34=], it has been decided by the higher ups that [[http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-C7_hZPzdecY/VMQzM9cAnwI/AAAAAAAAD60/UE0DIAwauF0/s1600/lucy.png one packet shall be locked away inside the Vault for safekeeping]], while the others shall be destroyed. Lucy will be the only deity who will ascend through this drug. |
| 30 | * The deified members from the Marvel Universe note Lucy's [[Creator/ScarlettJohansson uncanny resemblance]] to [[Pantheon/RacialAppearances Black Widow]]. Of course, this doesn't stop Lucy from taking on Widow's likeness for her own amusement. While Widow is not amused, she is (somewhat) friends with Lucy. |
| 31 | ** Lucy also grew a relationship with [[Pantheon/OrganizationsProfiles Motoko Kusanagi]], having impersonated her under the alias [[Film/GhostInTheShell2017 Mira Killan]] and using her technopathy to aid the Major's cyborg body. |
| 32 | * While Lucy is one if the smartest in the Pantheon, there are those in the Pantheon that are smarter than her. As Tony Stark once said, " Everything special about her came from that drug." |
| 33 | * Albert and Alex Wesker are leading the charge in their attempts to use Lucy to further their research. While the packets of [=CP34=] are out of their reach, the Weskers both believe that the secret lies within Lucy's blood. Once they unlock the secrets, then they can get their revenge on the Redfield siblings for ruining their plans. |
| 34 | * Travis Bickle, the Patron of Taxi Drivers, ''hates'' Lucy due to her treatment of his fellow cab drivers back when she was a mortal. Granted that she was on the road to godhood, but still... |
| 35 | * Due to [[Creator/LucBesson shared origins]], has gotten along with Leeloo, and is always willing to give some protection to [[Pantheon/CombatOther Leon and Mathilda]]. While Lucy knows that as powerful as she is there is no way she could take on Leeloo's "nemesis" Mr. Shadow on her own, she won't back down on joining the fight against him - her brain improvement led to detachment that deems concepts such as "Evil" to be meaningless, but there's no way Lucy can let literal world-destroying forces go by unchecked. |

In general, any [[Pantheon/SCPFoundation SCPs]] who refuse to cooperate with the Foundation, [[Pantheon/{{Advertising}} The]] [[Pantheon/{{Mammals}} Incubators]], [[Pantheon/MachineryAndTechnology The Church of the Broken God]] ([[EnemyMine with some exceptions]]), [[Pantheon/MachineryAndTechnology Sarkicism]], [[Pantheon/ReligiousPractice The Fifth Church]], [[Pantheon/OthernessAbominations Ghatanothoa]], [[Pantheon/ExtraterrestrialBehaviour Ithaqua]], [[Pantheon/{{Colours}} The Colour Out of Space]] |
| 51 | * Rivals: [[Pantheon/FantasticalLeadership The Global Occult Coalition]] |
| 52 | * Though not a singular entity, the Foundation has collected so many weird and odd artifacts over the years that it has a very in-depth understanding of how extranormal beings operate and, as a result, have developed many effective methods in fighting and containing them. Realizing that they would work better as allies than enemies, the head deities allowed the SCP Foundation to establish a permanent presence in the Main House, where its primary duty is to oversee the House of Treasures, maintain the status quo of the Pantheon, and make sure that the mortal realms remain unaware of the events that transpire in this plane of existence. |
| 53 | * Operation Gotterdammerung is proceeding as planned. Xanatos: Phase Six, complete. |
| 54 | * The Foundation once tried to "neutralize" [[Pantheon/PositiveReaction Fred Rogers]] because they deemed him too powerful. It didn't end well. |
| 55 | * [[Pantheon/{{Superheroism}} Batman]] is rumored to have very close ties to the Foundation; it has been further hypothesized that he may in fact head it, or at the very least provide a rather sizable chunk of its data as regards to other gods in general and super-beings in particular. |
| 56 | * Due to its vast collection of various artifacts, it's rumored that the Foundation has an SCP or procedure to kill, incapacitate, or contain ''any'' being or deity it comes across. It commands great fear and respect among the lesser deities after stories of its "neutralizing" of one of [[Pantheon/NarrativeGenresNToZ Haruhi's]] alternate universe counterparts began to circulate. |
| 57 | * Apparently has a few agents watching the [[Pantheon/{{Teleporting}} Sages]] [[Pantheon/IdentityIssues of]] [[Pantheon/{{Disguises}} Gensokyo]], and in particular Yukari Yakumo, just in case she decided that it would be better if the Pantheon 'disappeared'. In turn, however, the gap youkai has her trusted shikigami (and said shikigami's own shikigami) keeping tabs on the Foundation itself in case they go ahead and classify all of Gensokyo as an SCP. To make matters more complicated for both, human esper Sumireko Usami has begun to look into this shadow war by her own volition, which can potentially compromise them, leading to them [[PublicServiceAnnouncement making announcements regarding Sumireko's involvement]]. |
| 58 | * Has recently formed an alliance with the agents of the Series/{{Warehouse|13}}, past and present, due to their similar missions. Ditto the Men In Black, who also work for keeping a masquerade. |
| 59 | * May have [[VideoGame/{{Control}} The Federal Bureau of Control]] as one of their fronts. |
| 60 | * Have refused to comment on the rumors that their logo was originally a "Five-Minute Foundation Orientation" tool. |
| 61 | * Despite all the truly evil things they have done in their goal of [[StatusQuoIsGod maintaining the Status Quo]], the SCP Foundation is forever a true ally to Humanity and their guardians from the things that lie in the dark. ''The P stands for Protect. Remember this.'' |
| 62 | * A break-in at the Foundation caused quite a stir throughout the Pantheon, especially considering it was still dealing with the fiasco dubbed "The Great Upheaval". That is until it was discovered that the only thing missing was the utterly-harmless [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-999 SCP-999]]. Agents of the Foundation found the cuddly, blob-like entity in the company of [[Pantheon/MagicAndSorcery Madoka Kaname]]. The [[spoiler: recently depowered]] Goddess claimed ignorance, both of the creature's nature and how it had come into her possession; it had apparently appeared in the middle of the night in her room. She reluctantly parted with the creature: after everything she had dealt with, she had found the SCP's presence very cheering. Considering the timing and nature of the breakout, the Foundation has a relatively good idea of who was behind it. |
| 63 | * Their current project is to find a way to get [[Pantheon/{{Tears}} Isaac]] in as a SCP [[spoiler: after the reveal of his devil form came unwrapped.]] Unfortunately, [[Pantheon/{{Ambiguity}} Lucifer]] also took a interest in Isaac and is considering having him as a adopted son he could train. A war to get Isaac first could break out, making the Pantheon anxious. |
| 64 | * Annoyed at misspellings and ever worried about documentation, the Foundation has created an amusing method to keep the name right: whenever someone in the pantheon calls them "[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/system:page-tags/tag/shark-punching-center SPC]]", [[Pantheon/AquaticLife Bruce]] is punched and the misspeller is subsequently chased by the shark. Of course this led to problems for the [[Pantheon/TheatricProduction Samurai Pizza Cats]] once, and the Foundation is currently trying to implant an exception for them. |

| 81 | * Opposed by: [[Pantheon/PredecessorsAndMentors Izumi Curtis]] |
| 82 | * Annoyed by: [[Pantheon/MachineryAndTechnology Vril Dox/Brainiac]] |
| 83 | * Additional Relationship with: [[Pantheon/PhysicalAppearance Van Hohenheim]], [[Pantheon/MilitaryRanks Roy Mustang]], [[Pantheon/BodilyForm Dante (FMA)]] |
| 84 | * It has many names; you can call it God, The World, The Universe, but most refer to the entity as Truth. An almighty being, it maintains the laws of EquivalentExchange and oversees the ''FMA'' universe. Those who perform human transmutation will face its punishments, [[JerkassGods though can be rather amoral about it]]. It is karma personified and now chooses to interact with the Trope Pantheon. |
| 85 | * The Truth is somewhat of a hollow version of oneself, a ShadowArchetype to the alchemist. Whenever someone visits its temple, the CosmicEntity will appear as a [[TheBlank blank silhouette of them]]. Has entertained the ideas of representing the ShadowArchetype trope, and was disappointed by the Ebon Dragon. The Truth considers him to be [[TheDevilIsALoser pathetic]]. |
| 86 | * Rather similar to Outer God [[Pantheon/DimensionalAreas Yog-Sothoth]], being a CosmicEntity who guards great knowledge. Possibly the Outer God's ''FMA'' counterpart. The two get along and work to maintain proper knowledge and stability throughout the multiverses. It's also somewhat similar to the Source, and like with the Source, Darkseid hopes to plunder the Truth for ultimate knowledge and power. More concerned with the Dark God due to his greater success rate compared to Father. |
| 87 | * One of its functions is to punish those that try to play God, as "despair is for the conceited." Hasn't explained how Father managed to get out of his prison but has stated it's not that concerned, as it has the Court of the Gods keeping him in check and is capable of reclaiming him at any moment. Considers Light Yagami to be particularly conceited, and laughs at his futile attempt of trying to be [[AGodAmI "the god of the new world"]]. |
| 88 | ** Approves of Tartarus, as it serves as a punishment for mortals who committed great hubris. |
| 89 | * Serves as a cosmic incarnation of justice and karma, doling out ironic punishments towards those who break alchemy's taboos. These punishments can come off as cruel, such as [[spoiler:stripping Roy's sight despite his human transmutation being literally forced, though Truth responded it's why he got off easy, as opposed to losing his eyes like some other alchemist who willing tried a transmutation to see someone alive again]]. Izumi in particularly has told Truth to fuck off. That being said, [[OmniscientMoralityLicense it IS karma]] and serves the gravest of punishments to those earned it. [[spoiler:He turned out to be a TricksterMentor to everyone, with the Elric brothers being the ones who finally grasped his teaching; as such, he is proud to see them in the Pantheon.]] He approves of Sans and Ghost Rider for trying to enforce karma. |
| 90 | * Ensures that the laws of life and death remain consistent within the ''FMA'' universe. While death is a permanence there, [[DeathIsCheap it is far from it in the Pantheon]]. The Truth doesn't mind, as the flexibility of mortality follows the laws of the universe that the Trope Pantheon bides by. With life and death being under its domain, it understands and is fine to work with Death of the Endless. Likewise, it respects Beerus due to the importance of destruction and doing his job. He does wish the God of Destruction was more prudent and responsible with his job. |
| 91 | * Maintains the Gate of Truth, which contains all the knowledge in the universe. As a custodian of great knowledge, it gets along with Histoire and Hermaeus Mora. Vril Dox has attempted to loot the Gate of Truth for information to no avail, though his constant attempts annoy Truth greatly. |
| 92 | * Disapproves of the Incubators for their attempt to overthrow the system of entropy. Also disapproving of Homura Akemi for similar plans of usurping the natural system. In general, the Truth detests those who try to break the laws of nature, such as Nerif. Bill Cipher is a major frustration because of his desire for a WorldOfChaos. |
| 93 | * Gets along with the Living Tribunal, for being much like itself; an arbiter of cosmic balance. Being karma incarnate, it has an honorary seat in the House of Justice. Also gets along with Nemesis as she is the spirit of retribution, dealing with the arrogant. |
| 94 | * Seems to be concerned over Zanza, not just to the ability to reshape the universe [[InTheirOwnImage in his image]] but [[spoiler:being a mere mortal [[WasOnceAMan who had done so]]]]. |

| 117 | * Other Relationships: [[{{Pantheon/Destinies}} The Cutie Mark Crusaders]] (offering to be their journalism mentors) |
| 118 | * Within the Youkai Mountain lays the home of the tengu. Tengu are known for many things, but most relevant thing is that they love to gossip and write articles about the goings of the world. One of the most vocal tengu is Aya Shameimaru, who in particular likes to scoop out any and all interesting articles around Gensokyo to write onto her newspaper called Bunbunmaru Newspaper- and she'll do just about anything to get a headline. |
| 119 | * Was actually ascended in the past- but much like other Gensokyoan deities like [[Pantheon/CommonColors Sumireko Usami]], she was eventually taken out as one of the many that got removed during a massive reorganization effort. That's not to say that she left the Pantheon completely since then- she just lost access to juicier areas for her to spin a story. SmashCut to [[Pantheon/{{Currency}} Chimata Tenkyuu]]'s ascension, however, and soon Aya found herself alongside most of Gensokyo in arms against [[Pantheon/{{Advertising}} Brand X]] for trying to profit off of their main culture- their Spell & Ability Cards. Aya's main role during the uprising was to spread the word as fast as she could, not just across Gensokyo, but also the Pantheon, delivering special editions of the Bunbunmaru Newspaper that had been written in multiple Pantheon-known languages courtesy of Kosuzu Motoori. However, when it came time to strike Brand X itself, Aya joined the fight, and with the rest of Gensokyo's top brass, they successfully take down the organization [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown in a brilliant display of danmaku]]. And yet...she never accepted the reascension offer at first, unlike [[Pantheon/MannersOfAuthority Keiki Haniyasushin]] & Kosuzu, as she felt content with what she had now- a great story to be told for years to come. But with enemies new and old cropping up for the land of fantasy since then, as well as exciting and horrifying new prosect, she finally pulled the trigger and returned to the Pantheon at large. |
| 120 | * To say that Aya's got some weird quirks is quite the subject to touch upon. For some time prior during her first ascension, there were rumors going abut that she was a girlfriend of sort to her creator ZUN, explaining the weird amount of exposure she got across quite a few incidents (except [[VideoGame/TouhouShinreibyouTenDesires that time when]] [[Pantheon/HolyAuthorityAndPower Toyosatomimi No Miko]] woke up from her slumber), as well as [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1035334_zun_and_his_beer_super_7.jpg a certain outfit from his wardrobe]]. These rumors have died down quite significantly since then, especially now that ZUN has an actual wife. There are also theories about that she takes panty shots and other naughty pictures of many deities and sells them for money. No one has really proven either of these, but many have conspired to believe that Aya was the one that helped [[Pantheon/ComedyGenres Tsubame Kayoi]] gain membership into an exclusive group of servant deities - a theory that had infuriated a certain Sakuya Izayoi. |
| 121 | * Aya is classified within Gensokyo as a tengu- more specifically, a crow tengu, who generally are relegated to information gathering. So naturally, she would, when off the clock, go around to meet some of her feathered fellows, such as Nyotengu, who isn't the most talkative to her reporter when it comes to their respective origins and societies, and instead would often get into beef with her over trivial matters, a feat very few of Nyotengu's other rivals have seemingly accomplished. She feels pity forwards Setsuna, anther fellow tengu, due of her being an outcast from her clan due of having white wings instead of black ones, to which Aya says that she totally doesn't feel like she herself is an outcast, [[BlatantLies no way]]. She also has a certain attraction towards the Murkrow in the Pantheon as they happen to be crows as well...but agrees that they are much better off with [[Pantheon/MagicArchetypes Marisa Kirisame]], since Aya's more busy with her job. Speaking of, given the seven's (1 Marisa + 6 Murkrow) kleptomaniac tendencies, Aya firmly thinks that they would make for great front-pagers for the Bunbunmaru Newspaper, [[BatmanGambit just by doing what they do normally]]. |
| 122 | ** Her classification as a tengu has gotten the attention of a certain scientist known as Promestein. The scientist in question, who also happens to be someone dedicated to learning the truth of the world that they lived in, should’ve been an easy ally for Aya, right? Absolutely wrong- Aya has expressed a ton of disdain towards Promestein’s chimera research and practices, flames only further fanned when Promestein openly wished that she could include crow tengu in her research. It took her heralds a significant amount of effort from stopping Aya from slipping into a BloodKnight phase and going ham on the scientist (Granted, Hatate & Megumu were also rightfully pissed). |
| 123 | * Charlotte E. Yeager, a member of the 501st (not [[Pantheon/LoyaltyAndServitude that one]]), thinks rather highly of Aya, a position most don't normally take when it came to the tengu. Both happen to be speed freaks with a rather carefree attitude, and their dynamic usually is a GoodCopBadCop one, with Charlotte being the good cop and Aya being the bad one. They also seem to just take life as it goes, feeling carefree about it, which has seemed to further root this strange friendship. |
| 124 | * Aya's pedigree as a reporter is...to put it lightly, very fluctuating. In general, her reports and headlines are generally in the range of mundane, to overexaggerated, embellished with inconsistencies and fallacies, apparently. However, this isn't always the case, really- it's just the norm for her. |
| 125 | ** She claims that she prides herself on only reporting the truth, but what she actually writes is not as honest. First of all, she will report on anything she thinks will make a good article- usually actual incidents that are mostly just mildly interesting happenings with different people. Secondly is that her articles are filled with rumors, exaggerations and some biased opinions, not helped by her admitting that most people only read the headlines and look at the pictures and rarely read the whole article. Due of these reasons, most people don't really read her newspaper that much unless they want to pass the time- some people even use her publications as fuel for fires. |
| 126 | ** She can be incredibly noisy and obnoxious when it comes to getting new stories, but she can change her behavior to be more polite to fit the situation when it comes to getting interviews. She doesn't really want to pick up fights, but don't let that excuse you from the fact that she's well over a millennium old, extremely fast, and unaware of just how strong she is. After all, despite where she stands in tengu society within Gensokyo, she is one that you do not want to mess with, regardless of your own strength. Unless you really don't want her to write articles about you, it is generally preferred to tolerate her presence than to try to drive her away. |
| 127 | ** Her career has had some high highs and very low lows. For instance, a high point would be a [[Manga/TouhouSuzunaanForbiddenScrollery dedicated Human Village version of the Bunbunmaru Newspaper]], distributed through Suzunaan; however, this establishment was challenged when Kosuzu's herald, Mamizou Futatsuiwa, [[MaliciousSlander conducted a smear campaign]] to dissuade these. A low point in her career, ''and I mean low'', was when she tried to turn her paper into a weekly tabloid paper filled with even more falsified stories (real-world political allusions, calling out "immigrants" like the members of Eientei & Sumireko, and even criticizing Gensokyo's incident resolvers) than the norm, something she admits to. It never actually got to the print as she cancelled whole thing in the fear that she was being used by Lunarians to possibly turn her lies into the truth- a suggestion heavily drilled into her by [[Characters/TouhouKanjudenLegacyOfLunaticKingdom Hecatia Lapislazuli]], [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech among other things.]] [[spoiler:However, a recent development involving Aya happens to involve one of her heralds- [[Manga/TouhouSuichoukaLotusEaterTachiNoSuisei her boss Megumu, who caused a minor incident that Chimata took advantage of and hold a market at Reimu's shrine.]] Aya tried to expose her own boss's machinations with the coerced help of Geidontei's owner Miyoi Okunoda, but upon witnessing Megumu & Chimata's meeting afterward, though, she had a change of mind and proceeded to report it as just what it is- a minor incident.]] |
| 128 | *** The consequences of starting a rather unsavory publication has also been a feeling that other members of the Pantheon had shared. The Cutie Mark Crusaders, for instance, set one up as one of their many schemes to get their marks, which, naturally didn't end well. Spongebob also had to undergo reporting for a tabloid such by Mr. Krabs' command in an attempt by the entrepreneur to get more money; [[spoiler:unlike Aya's attempt at trying to oust her boss Megumu for the red snow incident,]] Spongebob did turn the tables & exposed this shady business model of Krabs', shutting it down. Aya herself went to meet these fellow deities- she reminded the [=CMCs=] that the journalism business is tighter than it looks and offered to teach them the proper way to chase headlines, commended Spongebob for his brave efforts, and disapproved of Mr. Krabs' motivations for his paper- [[{{Hypocrite}} well, pot calling kettle black, no?]] |
| 129 | ** Other journalists in the Pantheon generally have a negative opinion of Aya, unsurprisingly, given her reputation in Gensokyo. Tamie Nogi for instance looks up to Aya as a symbol of going after headlines, but isn't as approving of her methods. Lois Lane & April O'Neil commend Aya's strength despite being a reporter, but like Tamie, aren't approving of some of Aya's attempts at getting news (oh, and speaking of Lois, her husband Clark also against her for that reason!). J. Jonah Jameson, who also generally has issues with bias (especially towards [[Pantheon/HeroicRoles Spider-Man]]), is also disapproving of Aya for just how much she fabricates and exaggerates her own stories, so much more than him ''even'' on news regarding Spider-Man, despite acknowledging her prowess as a photographer. And finally, Diana Christensen is impressed by Aya's work, especially on the unpublished tabloid that would've made Bunbunmaru truly heinous, and was disappointed when she learned of this fact. The tengu herself, however, would rather go for a one-way nosedive into Misty Lake instead of working with Christensen. |
| 130 | *** You may have noticed that Aya has very few enemies, but generally dislikes and is disliked by others. However, there is ''one such reporter'' that gets Aya's blood boiling, however- that being Louis Bloom, whose own methods of hunting headlines even disgusted her, let alone how he rose to prominence, through extreme cutthroat tactics and resorting to violence. Even though she herself isn't much of a saint when it comes to journalism, comparing Louis to the tengu makes her absolutely holy, and she'd be more than willing to start a smear campaign on him if she could gather enough on what he does at the Pantheon. |
| 131 | * As stated earlier, Aya is about 1000 years old, meaning that she is quite wise- though you may not know that from seeing her firsthand. She is also the fastest being in Gensokyo, able to have sustained flight that exceeds that of [[Pantheon/{{Vampires}} Remilia Scarlet]]- who has managed to circle the entire Moon really fast once, a claim that Marisa boldly made and has surprisingly been backed up by other Gensokyoan deities. She is freakishly strong and potentially stronger than she thinks she is, a topic that has put the Pantheon/CourtOfTheGods into quite a conundrum. |
| 132 | --> '''[[Pantheon/LawAndJustice Eiki Shiki, Yamaxanadu]]:''' The topic of Shameimaru's abilities has been one that has stymied us for a while. We have conclusively decided that her previous ascension rank of Lesser Goddess is unsuitable, but Overdeity is out of the question for her. [[BrokenBase A surprising amount]] of us in the Court believe she should be a Greater Goddess, but the rest, myself included, would see her more as an Intermediate Goddess. |
| 133 | ** Her abilities to control the wind are very, very strong, and could only be even stronger with that [[PaperFanOfDoom fan of hers]]. The wind, to her, could even carry the conversations and rumors that are spoken up. As such, deities in the Hall of Pantheon/WindAndAir, as well as other air users like [[Pantheon/ChildArchetypes Wendy Marvell]], [[Pantheon/GenderSexMiscellaneous Artoria Pendragon]], and even Gensokyo's own [[Pantheon/ReligionAndFaith Kanako Yasaka]] are very keen on seeing just how powerful these abilities are. They would get their wish, though, when [[https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/19710578 she flew right into]] Kamen Rider Faiz one day as she is, per usual, hunting for a scoop. The ensuing scrap forced out quite a bit from the two, a display that certainly made headlines later that day for Aya, but they soon realized their misunderstanding and have been friends since. |
| 134 | ** Aya Shameimaru, is, without question or even contest, the fastest person in Gensokyo. So fast, that, according to Barry Allen (aka. the Flash), she could potentially even make contact with the Speed Force if she really puts her mind into it. With that in mind, the duo decided on a money match- 10 laps around the Pantheon, running past the main entrance of every single House (that feasibly has such), loser has to work for the other for a week. And while Aya was incredibly fast and can definitely prove Barry's theory, she ended up having to serve as a janitor for a week at STAR Labs. She disliked the experience, but at least found respect for the speedster since then, which stemmed into a disliking of his archnemesis Eobard Thorne, a disliking paid in kind. |
| 135 | ** The camera that Aya carries has the ability to remove projectiles caught in its flash, especially danmaku. There are two other deities that have a camera with this kind of power- those being [[Pantheon/{{Logic}} Seija Kijin]] & Sumireko Usami. Nowadays, Aya feels rather neutral abut both despite having slandered and reported on them in the past, an upgrade from her previous feelings towards them. She is, of course, one of many who were horrified to learn of [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown Seija's fate]] at Yuuki Terumi's hands at Suzunaan, a headline that she reported with the utmost truth and precision. She still shudders whenever she sees the front-page picture for that article. |
| 136 | * Can also be found in the Hall of Pantheon/InvestigativeWork. She's...rather unpopular there. |

| 149 | * Followers: [[ComicBook/TheSpirit The Octopus]], [[VideoGame/Borderlands2 Zer0]] |
| 150 | * Allies: None, but it seems to get along with [[Pantheon/NamingConvention Beetlejuice and Hastur]] |
| 151 | * Enemies: Arguably everyone who knows about it. More specifically? '''[[Pantheon/{{Otherness}} The SCP Foundation]]''', [[Pantheon/PlainNeutral The Men In Black]], the House of Pantheon/{{Knowledge}}, especially [[Pantheon/AnalysisAndRecords Houka Inumata and Twilight Sparkle, Trope-tan]], [[Pantheon/MachineryAndTechnology Vril Dox/Brainiac]], [[Pantheon/MonsterTypes the Brainspawn]] |
| 152 | * SCP-2521 is a highly enigmatic being. Its origins, motivation and many things about it is unknown. This is due to the fact that the SCP ends up stealing anything written about it for an unknown reason. Or people if they talk about it. Pictograms, pictures and symbols don't trigger this effect, which is why [[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-2521 its article]] [[PaintingTheMedium is in pictograms]]. |
| 153 | * Because of how the entity steals any information, the description had to be written and stored by the Admins as they are more than powerful enough to stop SCP-2521. Still, SCP-2521 will continue to kidnap any god who speaks it, ''so don't'' unless you're a Greater God or higher(and even then it's unwise). And it was very unhappy that it couldn't pluck away their archives, though content that the majority of what it is remains a secret. |
| 154 | * A natural enemy of the House of Knowledge, but mainly on their end(ironic, given it's part of the same house). While it hates how the Admins have kept a written record, it doesn't care for the rest if they don't talk or write about it. They find this extremely frustrating and want to figure out what SCP-2521 is. Vril Dox and the Brainspawn's desire to know everything makes SCP-2521 a major pain. |
| 155 | * It's mainly the Hall of Pantheon/AnalysisAndRecords which opposes the enigmatic SCP. Asides from the already mentioned Admins, it doesn't like Trope-tan as she is able to store information as seen with this site without it taking that information. As they collect data and list things respectively, Houka Inumata and Twilight Sparkle weren't happy with SCP-2521's arrival. |
| 156 | * Some like [[Pantheon/LustfulBehavior Panty Anarchy]] believes the various ropes and bristles emanating from SCP-2521 could be used for...[[PowerPerversionPotential other things]]. SCP-2521 doesn't like to think about that. It straight up doesn't think about the House of Symbolism, given how it doesn't react to pictures and symbols even when used to describe it. |
| 157 | * Because nobody knows what SCP-2521's goals are and what it's really like, it lacks allies in a real sense. However it does seem to get along with Beetlejuice and Hastur. This is based off how like it, they will show up and cause trouble when mentioned. It sees a kindred spirit in them. |
| 158 | * When SCP-2521's mysterious reputation started to make rounds after its sudden appearance, [[Pantheon/{{Knowledge}} Hermaeus Mora]] immediately took an interest to it. The Daedric Prince claims it knows a lot more about it than most people do with its knowledge and documents stored in Apocrypha and part of what he said implies that it is one of his [[UnwittingPawn Unwitting Pawns]]. Whether or not the Prince is telling some amount of truth or is just as ignorant as everyone else is up for debate, but the Prince's attention to the SCP is... concerning. |
| 159 | * Takes people and written words with its sticky tentacle-like bristles. Given the heart that shows up when kidnapping, it may do what it does out of love. Or is a narcissist who perceives verbal information as reflections of itself. Presumably doesn't apply for those beyond the fourth wall, [[Characters/SCPFoundationSCPs given TV Tropes has a character page on it]]. So I'm probably [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou sa-]] |

| 182 | * Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/FantasticalLeadership Repli]][[Pantheon/MachineryAndTechnology force]] |
| 183 | * As Mission Control is a very common trope among superhero/elite soldier teams, Alia is a representative of many, including a few navigators who've worked with X and/or Zero in the past. She considers it a great honor and promises to do her best. Unfortunately, doing her best at one time consisted of ''over''doing it. During the admittedly stressful [[VideoGame/MegaManX5 Eurasia colony collision incident]], she would near-constantly break into {{exposition|Fairy}} to the point it interrupted the flow of the mission. Though she mellowed back down after the sobering events of Zero's death and became more efficient in her advice later on, she admitted during the [[VideoGame/MegaManX6 Nightmare investigation]] that she was personally concerned about X. Being that that incident involved her old friend Gate becoming a vengeful Maverick and took place only weeks after Zero's second destruction in the Eurasia crisis, emotions were probably running high. Eventually, she and X sat down and talked things out, following which she fully returned to her previous professional self and even took on new understudies/teammates in her position. It's because of her work since then that the Maverick Hunters successfully campaigned for her ascension. |
| 184 | * Prior to the Eurasis crisis, she once had a close friend named Iris; they briefly worked together as navigators for the Maverick Hunters and Iris was constantly putting over her brother's good work with Repliforce, another military unit formed to take down Mavericks. When Repliforce defected abruptly out of pride and later when Iris had her meltdown attacking Zero, Alia was taken aback. She still hasn't fully registered what she thinks of them since then after they've entered the Pantheon. |
| 185 | * She was suspicious when Redips, the Hunters' Far East HQ Colonel, sent X and Zero on a [[VideoGame/MegaManXCommandMission special mission]] on the artificial island Gigantis with a B-class Hunter named Shadow instead of Axl and didn't put her or her compatriots Layer and Palette on navigation duty. Her suspicion was justified when they came back from the remains of another orbital elevator and reported the truth of the mission, as it turned out Redips was a pure evil copy-generation Reploid just like Lumine. |
| 186 | * One day the original Mega Man, Proto Man, and Dr. Light all turned up while Alia was conversing with the Hunters, just to personally check on X. After meeting them and making fast friends with all of them, she was inspired to look up footage of their adventures in her world's past. During this research, she found that their most frequent enemy was the jealous megalomaniac scientist Dr. Wily. While her dislike of the madman and relief every time he was defeated was only natural, it evolved into a particularly strong distaste ever since finding out that it was the energy he put into Zero that would mutate into the Maverick Virus and cause all the headaches she and her friends and colleagues had to deal with over the years. Though Wily actually gets along with Zero in the Pantheon thanks to an epiphany the scientist himself had at some point where he apparently existed in her time as a sort of cyber ghost, she's still instinctively bewildered at any trace of the mad doctor's soft side and still doesn't trust Wily. |
| 187 | * Speaking of the past, she also met Green Biker Dude, the Hunter who died almost immediately after being deployed alongside X to stop [[VideoGame/MegaManX2 a Maverick factory uprising]] which took place before she became a Navigator for the Hunters. Though amazed that he was able to get so good with a Ride Chaser, she finds the concept of a Hunter who relies almost completely on his riding skills rather impractical and is thus not surprised that the Maverick Hunters haven't chosen to rebuild him. On that note, [[AmbiguousSituation Gate's final fate in the mortal coil had]] [[LeftHanging remained unknown]]; his mortal body had been left in the possession of Alia herself, who had the choice to restore him or not. Now that both of them are in the Pantheon, the whole situation became more awkward. Neither is offering any answers. |
| 188 | * Has made friends with other attractive female genius scientists such as Bulma and Asami Sato. Through Asami, she also became acquainted with Avatar Korra. When she was let in on the scope and nature of Korra's powers, she became astonished at the existence of the Avatar, which she likened to "a human Mega Man." |
| 189 | * Her inspiration to see the past eventually turned to the future, and Clockwork helped her out by showing her bits from every future and alternate continuity successor/counterpart of the Mega Man line. While pleased to learn that the Maverick Virus conundrum would be solved with the creation of the Cyber-Elves, she was surprised to find that [[VideoGame/MegaManZero Zero in a new body would be the next Mega Man]]. However, she was shaken to the core at finding out that her world's future would be ruled first by an errant Copy X, then by Dr. Weil and Omega. She can't help but look at the three with scorn and regard the future they would ruin with regret, knowing that her dear friends and everything they fought for will be completely desecrated. Still, she was pleased to discover that X and Zero's fight would eventually be won, the world they fought for rebuilt, and their powers and memories preserved through [[VideoGame/MegaManZX Biometals]]. She finds Vent/Aile and Giro to be worthy wielders of X and Zero's mantles respectively. |
| 190 | ** She found the existence of [[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork a world where communication/network technology got the major advance instead of robotics]] very interesting. She was touched by Lan and [=MegaMan.EXE=]'s connection [[spoiler:especially after it turned out they're brothers]], but was eternally dumbfounded at [[spoiler:the sheer scale of villains and scourges that they've taken out in their time]] until she had an epiphany that it's all powered by virtual reality. Still, she found herself taken aback by the curveball of that world's future 200 years on, where the main threat/power would come from [[VideoGame/MegaManStarForce alien visitors with half-armor, half-electromagnetic bodies]]. In regards to Geo Stelar, there were times (including at the beginning) she didn't know whether she wanted to give him a hug or a swift boot to the rear, though he ultimately turned out heroic enough that she settled on the hug. |
| 191 | * She regularly seeks out other deities who offer mission control and support to their teams to share information and advice with each other. Through this, she's forged friendships with many individuals such as Otacon, Bentley, Barbara Gordon, and the Normandy and Investigation Team support members, in hopes of creating connections to forge alliances with the Maverick Hunters. Many of these folks she admires for their dedication to protecting their charges from behind the lines. She's especially keen on The Tactician, whose entire thing is making sure that none of his/her charges die. |
| 192 | * Has Batgirl's particular respect for stepping out of her comfort zone as a Navigator and beginning to take a hand in active duty, a thing that Barbara herself has had to do both in reverse and straight up thanks to [[Pantheon/{{Laughter}} The Joker]]. |
| 193 | ** Speaking of combat abilities if she ever has to take to the field or just travel across dangerous territory between bases, she is armed with a Buster, and even has a sort-of Variable Weapon System, though obviously neither are at the same power level as X, and she can only arm herself with the Special Weapons he used during the [[VideoGame/MegaManX8 Lumine crisis]]. To ensure her safety, X has allowed her to use all of those while he settles with all the other Special Weapons. |
| 194 | * She finds the evil A.I. [=GLaDOS=] to be utterly disturbing, and outright motioned for [=GLaDOS=] to be declared a Maverick for the latter's desire to find, test, and destroy all humans at the Aperture Science center. |
| 195 | * As far as intelligent computers go, she's far more comfortable with the likes of EDI. In fact, EDI was the one who warned her about [=GLaDOS=] as an example of [[AIIsACrapshoot A.I. being an utter crapshoot]] when she was considering suggesting one for Hunter Base. EDI's ''Normandy'' teammates have been pretty kind to her as well; Liara has offered to help devise a cure for the Maverick Virus, while Joker has suggested he could possibly make advanced training videos for the Hunters' aircraft carrier pilots. |
| 196 | * One of her high priestesses was Zero's future caretaker, the scientist Ciel. Naturally, when Ciel finally ascended, she gave Ciel a congratulatory hug. They still speak often. |
| 197 | * She is ''not'' on good terms with the Angry Video Game Nerd, due to an [[https://youtu.be/Q3iEn5rzMnw?t=297 incident]] that nearly made him [[RageQuit quit his career outright]] because of her unwanted MissionControl stopping his progress with her game. Likewise, Alia is not fond of his [[ClusterFBomb foul language]] as it has the potential to blow out her audio receptors ''(and also, because it's just plain rude.)'' |
| 198 | * A grainy, seemingly-damaged piece of security camera footage from the now-non-operational Grave Ruins Base's Hall of Glory throne room shows what looks like a group of women examining the broken remains of two destroyed Reploids… |

| 213 | * Under watch by: The House of Pantheon/MilitaryAndWarfare and some sectors of the House of Pantheon/{{Weapons}} |
| 214 | * Meteora was originally just an NPC from a game called ''Avalken of Reminisce'', who came into the real world thanks to Altair summoning her and other creations in order to break and destroy reality. Initially when she arrived, Meteora was having existential issues and wanted to meet her creator, but unfortunately he had died in a motorbike accident a few week prior, but she eventually recovered from the fact that she could never meet him. The reason for her ascension is that, both in her game of origin and in the real world her primary role was to explain things, which eventually landed her a position in the pantheon. |
| 215 | * After the events of the Elimination Chamber Festival, [[spoiler:Meteora was the only creation that remained in the real world since [[YouCantGoHomeAgain the portal back to the fictional worlds requires someone to open it and stay behind]]. It wasn't a big deal for her as she grew to love the real world and even was granted citizenship by the Japanese government. She even decided to write a book about the events that transpired involving the creations coming to life]]. |
| 216 | ** That said, given the fictional nature of the pantheon, Meteora was granted her magical powers once more. But she only has access to them whenever she is in her temple. |
| 217 | * The existence of the Pantheon was something that shed some light into Meteora's understanding of fiction, as it pretty much confirmed that what she considered to be "reality" was merely another fictional world and she and other creations belonged to [[ShowWithinAShow fiction of said world]], often based or referencing works from the real world. She also learned that the Pantheon wasn't limited to just Media originated in Japan but also from all around the world and even from different mediums entirely. |
| 218 | * She quickly learned that Altair was also an ascended deity in the pantheon, something that initially concerned her wondering if she was feeling better after their last encounter. Both remain on good terms, even if other people have told Meteora that Altair [[KarmaHoudini didn't deserve to be left off so easily and deserves worse]]. And she doesn't necessarily disagree with those claims, as there is still a possibility that Altair could be a threat in the future. |
| 219 | * Another strange fact that caught her attention is that there were other people that [[Creator/InoriMinase sounded like her]], something that she already knew before hand since he learned about that back in the real world. That's why he ended up befriending Chino Kafuu and Yuki Takeya, although she [[TheStoic has more in common with the latter]]. That said, she has no sympathy for Swim Swim, who could be arguably worse than Altair in some aspects. |
| 220 | * Her former role back in the world she originated from was that of a librarian, and while she grew over the limitations of said role, she still does like to read books and frequents the House of Pantheon/{{Knowledge}} as a result. That's why she is also friends with other librarians or bookworms such as Yomiko Readman, Twilight Sparkle and Shiena Kenmochi. |
| 221 | ** Sometimes, her wanting to learn more about the Pantheon's nature has driven her to seek more unorthodox information, which eventually lead to her having a rather [[NoodleIncident unfortunate incident with Hermaus Mora that she would rather not talk about]]. That's the last time she is delving into [[TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow forbidden knowledge]] and will stick with what she knows. |
| 222 | * Has an habit of stealing military-grade weapons and the like to use them in combat whenever trouble arises, something that she started doing when she arrived at the real world. The more sensible members of the House of Pantheon/MilitaryAndWarfare have tried to regulate the equipment she takes so she doesn't go overboard and have tried to keep an eye on her. |
| 223 | ** There is another person who has shown similar behaviour and that was none other than Homura Akemi. Meteora doesn't know what to think of her, while she appreciates her dedication towards Madoka, she thinks her methods are rather extreme. |
| 224 | * Very skilled in the art of analyzing and planning ahead, as she was a key player in figuring out why creations were coming to life and how to defeat Altair so she doesn't destroy the real world. This in turn made her allies with other brilliant minds like Batman and Spock, the former even asking her in formulating a plan to combat the Anti-Monitor given her involvement in CrisisCrossover. |
| 225 | * Turns out that she isn't the only person who is tasked with the exposition as Maechen already had one of those aspects covered, but nonetheless both him and Meteora ended up befriending each other. There was also Fi, who while she had an unrelated role in the pantheon, is also prone to exposition. |
| 226 | * Shido Itsuka once approached Meteora, as she reminding him of Nia Honjou and wondered if they personally met before. She also saw a lot of her friend Sota in Shido so that might have been the reason they became friends so fast. |
| 227 | ** Shido introduced Meteora to a his new friend Haruto Tsukishiro, who initially confused her for Nene Higashiyama due to [[Creator/InoriMinase her voice]]. Apparently, Haruto encountered Nene inside the [[DreamLand dreamscape]] in the form of a storybook and thought Meteora could help him in his travels thanks to her area of expertise. Although dream exploration was uncharted territory for Meteora, she nevertheless agreed to lend her assistance. |
| 228 | * Once retold the story of ''Re:Creators'' which conveniently featured a [[SexierAlterEgo sexier Meteora]] defeating Altair [[CurbStompBattle in the first fight almost effortlessly]]. Of course, nobody thinks that version is accurate to begin with. |
| 229 | * No, she might be named Meteora, but she has nothing to do with Music/LinkinPark's second album. That didn't some people from jokingly calling her Linkin Park. |
| 230 | * Has got along greatly with all of the Doctor Riders, very much appreciative that esteemed healers such as them are still so welcoming to getting along with creations after the events of their series. Meteora has especially been getting along with Poppy Pipopapo aka Asuna Karino due to the latter's status as a fictional character brought into the real world. Currently, Asuna has been aiding in Meteora's adjustment [[spoiler: into the real world after she has been BroughtDownToNormal.]] |
| 231 | ** That being said, she naturally is disgusted and horrified by the actions of Masamune Dan, with Meteora deeming him every wrong with a Creator. |

| 245 | * Enemies: '''[[Pantheon/HuntersAndSlayers Colonel Miles Quaritch]]''', [[Pantheon/Warhammer40000 The Imperium of Mankind]], [[Pantheon/ReligionAndFaith YHVH]], [[Pantheon/NamingTheme Emperor Zurg]], [[Pantheon/{{Slaughter}} The Xenomorph Drone]], [[Pantheon/BeastOther The Tyranids]], [[Pantheon/{{Toxicity}} Hexxus]], [[Pantheon/{{Celebration}} Carol/Mom]], [[Pantheon/{{Workmanship}} Mr. Plinkett]] |
| 246 | * Distrusts: The House of Pantheon/{{Commerce}} |
| 247 | * Neytiri is the second-born daughter of the Omaticaya[[note]]translates to "Blue Flute"[[/note]] Clan patriarch Eytukan, growing up to learn through songs. When Jake Sully was sent to infiltrate the Na'vi, unknowing of this she would serve as his mentor. Eventually they would form a bond and become mates, leading to Jake genuinely joining their cause. Together, they would fight off the RDA and protect Pandora from humanity. |
| 248 | * Both her and her species have a much more advanced nervous system than humans. Her "ponytail" is actually a specialized bundle of nerves that allow her to interface with virtually any animal and plant on Pandora. This is due to the life there being more connected, the entire ecosystem being one network. She can't plug into any technology however, though she does show a passing interest in other interfaces like Film/TheMatrix. |
| 249 | ** There have been scientists who want to help in this endeavor, but she has been turning down those who ask nicely, and fighting off those who don't. She's not that eager to connect that way yet. |
| 250 | * At first, she kept her distance from human gods due to the conflict between man and Na'vi. Colonel Quaritch was utterly enraged to learn that both Jake Sully and the person who killed him had ascended. However she got over this as most humans didn't have a reason to invade Pandora, and some completely understood her plight. Pocahontas in particular identified with her a lot, as they're both TheChiefsDaughter and fought off supposedly more civilized colonialists. Not to mention that Film/{{Avatar}} is an allegory of sorts for the Europeans invading and exploiting the Native Americans. |
| 251 | * Her planet was invaded due to the valuable substance known as unobtanium. Because of this, she is wary of the House of Pantheon/{{Commerce}} and gods who might wish to exploit it, like Momcorp. She is protective towards Cael Cynder due to producing the stuff, and Nibbler due to his [[SolidGoldPoop dark matter leavings]] having been exploited. |
| 252 | * Has a bond with the animals of her world, making her a FriendToAllLivingThings. As such, she gets along with Fluttershy. She seems to be fond of Trevenant due to being a protective tree, and understands Ood Sigma due to how his race was viciously exploited by humanity. |
| 253 | * Given Creator/JamesCameron, she has been warned by Jake and [[Pantheon/RuinAndDestruction Ellen Ripley]] to not let the Xenomorphs anywhere near Pandora, lest [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=872221 this be the result]]. Given what it would do with their UnusualUserInterface, this is completely justified. What the Tyranids might do with the biomass is arguably worse, and no-one wants to know what Emperor Zurg might do if he hijacks Ewya. |
| 254 | * Well aware that Film/{{Avatar}} is a GreenAesop. Her sympathies lie with Gaea due to being an entity very similar to Eywa, along with Captain Planet. Like Jake Sully, this is in hopes humans have less of a reason to go back to Pandora. |
| 255 | * Due to YHVH's devastation to the environment in His obsessive desire for control, she opposes Him. She really opposes Hexxus due to being the living embodiment and pollution, and showing interest in industrializing and polluting Pandora. The Imperium of Mankind hopes to take advantage of Pandora, who asides from [[AbsoluteXenophobe their typical attitude to xenos]] see them as just as arrogant and full of themselves as the Eldar[[note]]not that they're much different[[/note]]. |
| 256 | * It's believed that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ru9fw7szQw her and Jake mating]] involved using their hairs. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0D8IRIYBSnk Many a joke]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oHTPs-6Ey4 has been made about it]], which gets her really embarrassed. She's really annoyed at [[Pantheon/TheatreAndSpectacle the Robot Chicken]] for the latter, and makes it clear she doesn't kiss and tell. When [[Pantheon/TacticsAndStrategies Zapp Brannigan]] tried to ask if she had boobs in a clumsy attempt to seduce her, she just rolled her eyes at this. |
| 257 | * [[Pantheon/AntiHeroism Gamora]] wants to know why [[Creator/ZoeSaldana they sound the same]], though otherwise remains neutral on her. [[Pantheon/SpaceAndCosmos Captain Kirk]] wondered if she ever met Nyota Uhura because of their similar voices. |

| 274 | * Ascended when he heard that Mordecai and Rigby were in the Pantheon, and wanted to make sure that they didn't do anything wrong. |
| 275 | * Even though he's said to be able to fix anything, he's absolutely horrible with technology, and stays far away from the houses of Gaming and Technology. The sole exception to this is when he fights Polybius, who he believes to be the reincarnation of the Destroyer of Worlds. |
| 276 | * Has formed a friendship with Luke Skywalker due to the fact that [[Creator/MarkHamill they sound the same]]. |
| 277 | * With his ascension, Skips has asked to put the Fists of Justice in the Maximum Security vault. Even though he's the only one with access to it, he's decided to let Mordecai and Rigby handle it more often as of late (much to their chagrin), seeing how they're better at the job. |
| 278 | ** Because of his possession of the Fists of Justice, he's made good allies in Garnet and Touma, the former admiring his gauntlets and the latter respecting his ability to fight stronger beings with his fists. |
| 279 | * Many deities in the Pantheon know of the story of why he skips: it's a sign of remembrance of a woman he once loved. What most don't know is that [[spoiler:he indirectly caused her death over a petty bet]]. Because of this, he sympathizes with Zero, who also [[spoiler:killed someone he loved]]. |
| 280 | ** Sometimes he checks one those in the House of Pantheon/{{School}} to give sage advice and stop anything like what happened with him |
| 281 | * Has become friends with Spike Spiegel, who [[Creator/SteveBlum reminds him of his friend Techmo]]. The two also bonded over their lost loves. |
| 282 | * Seeing how the Pantheon is filled to the brim with evil monsters, Skips decided to recruit others to create a task force designed to keep them in check. So far, he has managed to recruit Dante, Ghost Rider, and Doctor Strange, just to name a few. |
| 283 | * Because he literally cheated his world's incarnation of Death, the evil deities of the house of Life and Death have decided to challenge Skips in a series of party games. He's won all of them so far, but seeing how they're in a place where DeathIsCheap, he has little reason to worry, something he's well aware of. |
| 284 | * Despite the supposed rivalry with the Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon deities, he's on good terms with [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick; seeing them as more optimistic versions of Mordecai and Rigby. |
| 285 | * Even in the Pantheon, Skips' biggest weakness is his massive vulnerability to stress. Due to [[DeathIsCheap how death works]] in the Pantheon, it no longer kills him, but it still weakens him greatly. Because of this, he's been advised to stay away from the likes of Trollkaiger and even LOL Ranger. |

| 307 | * Being a BountyHunter is hard work, besides making sure that you have the right equipment, supplies and tools for the job. You also need the right information for your target. You need someone to tell you where to go, look, and be aware of. You need someone to help give you an assignment, mission, a target. You need a {{Handler}} like Greef Karga. |
| 308 | * A disgraced human Imperial Magistrate, Greef Karga is a member of the Bounty Hunters' Guild, the Guild Master of Navarro. As an agent of the guild one of his many responsibilities to give and ensure that there are enough bounties available for everyone. One of his favorite {{Bounty Hunter}}s is a [[LivingLegend Legendary]] [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Mandalorian]] by the name of Din Djarin, who he would place a bounty on after breaking the Guild Code, and rescuing "The Child". [[spoiler:He would later lift the bounty on both Mando and "The Child" after they helped save his life, and liberate Navarro of retirements of [[TheEmpire The Galactic Empire]]]]. With the resent amount of in-fights about who gets what job and how much of a cut they get, Boba Fett concluded that he was the best man for the job after hearing of his actions, profession, and history. |
| 309 | * When Greef first came to Pantheon, he was initially bewildered with how different and strange it was from his home galaxy. But thanks to Boba Fett, he was able to quickly familiarize himself to the strange new world. He was not only quick to learn the inner working of Pantheon, but was even quicker to establish a form of business inside of it. He made a contract within both the Houses of Pantheon/LawAndJustice and Pantheon/JobsAndProfession, so that way he can both legally and officially start his work with the Bounty Hunters in Pantheon. |
| 310 | ** He's even made some contact with the Houses of Pantheon/{{Royalty}} and Pantheon/{{Leadership}}. So that way he can work in some of the other Pantheon/PopulatedAreas without difficulty. |
| 311 | ** With some help from Boba Fett, Greef is working to officially establish a Guild, like the one from their home galaxy. With Boba Fett being the God of {{Bounty Hunter}}s and Greef being the God of {{Handler}}s, as well as being an actual Guild Master, the progress has been doing well. |
| 312 | * Something else that Greef managed to do was to bring in his new Herald, [[spoiler:Carasynthia Dune. A former Rebel Shocktroope and survivor of Alderaan]]. |
| 313 | * To those familiar, they'll notice that the Handler is typically something that known for spy-work, and not necessarily bounty hunting. There are two reason why Greef gets away with this. One, while not a government agency, he does work for a legal wide scale (galactic scale) organisation, is tasked with handing out missions and assignment to all of their agents ([[EspionageTropes not that kind]]) and is in charge of eliminating them should any go rogue. In this case, if someone beaks the guild code. The second reason, [[TheSpymaster Nick Fury]] is already here, and almost every known spy, agent, etc. works directly and answers to him. |
| 314 | ** That's not to say that they don't work together from time to time. When there's something that Fury can't deal with at the time, he pulls some strings, gives Greef an [[MysteriousEmployer anonymous tip]], some prepaid money and it's back to business as usual. He's even helped work with a number of agents and assassins from time to time. |
| 315 | * As it's his job is to give any available missions to the Bounty Hunters in Pantheon, he's marked a few as personal favorites. The most obvious one is Boba Fett, but besides him he's an good terms with Samus Aran and Captain Falcon. The two are ones that remind him the most about his home galaxy, and their incredibly efficient at their job. |
| 316 | ** Since he's the one responsible to give out bounties for anyone willing to hunt, a number of gods in the House of Pantheon/CrimeAndTransgressions aren't exactly fond of him. The same goes for other Gods with extraordinarily large bounties on them, like Ragna the Bloodedge, Vash the Stampede, John Wick, the all pirates in the Grand Line. He honestly doesn't have anything against them, but this is his job. |
| 317 | * As someone from the [[Franchise/StarWars Star Wars Galaxy]], it was only a matter of time before he came in contact with the Jedi Order. When he first saw [[Pantheon/SpeechNtoZ Yoda]], he thought that "The Child" had come from the future. He was corrected not long after, but he also began to learn much about the Order. But especially about the Force. Greef was amazed on how the Empire was able to almost completely wipe out all knowledge of the Jedi, especially since he was still young during the time they were very well known. |
| 318 | * To absolutely no ones surprise, Greef was not happy to see The Empire again, it's even worse since it's at it's full strength. He was horrified to learn about Palatine being a [[EvilOverlord Sith Lord]], the EvilCounterpart to the Jedi, and unlike "The Child" he's fully trained and adept in his Force Power and is actually one of the strongest in the Galaxies history. |
| 319 | ** Despite having learned that Vader has [[HeelFaceTurn reformed]], he's still one of most [[TheDreaded feared beings in the Galaxy]], so he does his best not to cross him. Same goes for the 501st Legion, [[spoiler:he had enough problems with other Storm Troopers. He does ''NOT'' want to deal with what accounts as the elite members of the Storm Trooper Army]]. |
| 320 | * His status as a guild master has allowed him the opportunity to work with a number of adventurers that have done some bounty hunting. Greef was quick to notice that the members of the [[Pantheon/FairyTail Fairy Tail Guild]] weren't exactly comfortable in working with him. But he's one of the only employers that work in a profession that they're familiar with. Thankfully he's drinking buddies with both [[Pantheon/BodySizes Makarov Dreyar]] and [[Pantheon/{{Alcohol}} Cana Alberona]], and is also in a bit of trouble. |
| 321 | --> Greef: Alright haw about this. What if I, helped bring up a [[AdventureGuild Guild]] that you guys can actually work with? |
| 322 | --> Makarov: I won't deny that the idea sound nice, but what do you get out of it? |
| 323 | --> Greef: Besides some cut the profit for whatever they make? A little good PR doesn't sound so bad. |
| 324 | --> Makarov: Ok. [takes a drink] And the real reason? |
| 325 | --> Greef: ... [[NoodleIncident I may or may not have accidentally angered some members of the GUAE and the GUAD]]. And need something to keep them occupied an off my back. |

While going on a trip to Tropical Land, Shinichi left her behind stating that he missed something inside the rollercoaster trip. That is until she went to Shinichi's home, thinking he is already home, only that she could never find him and encountered Dr. Agasa and a kid that she didn't recognize. The latter introduced himself as Conan Edogawa, with Ran taking an interest on the kid and wanted him to stay on her home where it is also where her father's detective agency came from. Now, she is helping her father solve crimes and cases whenever they encounter one, unaware that Conan is the one that solve all the cases and that he is Shinichi Kudo. |
| 348 | * She was chosen to ascend not only because it seems that either she or someone else will remind someone she is a karate captain, whether or not they are in a dangerous situation, but also that [[spoiler:she finally responded to Shinichi's love confession by kissing him on the cheek]]. Upon meeting Conan in the Pantheon, they were both surprised to meet each other, and she didn't expect him to have already ascended before she. Fearing that Ran will find out his identity soon, the Court of Gods set up a mandate to keep Conan's identity as Shinichi a secret from her until she discovers it by herself. |
| 349 | ** Given how... badly he's kept the secret from several others, despite having successfully sabotaged Ran's progress to finding him out several times, a lot thought that this mandate was stupid and that there should be some sort of middle ground as to what she knows of Conan that will stay in the Pantheon and not follow to the mortal realm. However, due to the threat of the Black Organization[[labelnote:*]]for all they know, it or some of its members are followers in the Pantheon, and even if DeathIsCheap, Conan is paranoid like that [[FridgeLogic even if a lot of deities know who he is without ending up in the Organization's sights]][[/labelnote]], and given how many others have already made it to the Pantheon even ''before'' ascending if they ever do, this mandate will stay in effect, but can be re-negotiated with Conan at a later date. [[spoiler:The Black Organization is now officially here, giving Conan even more reason to worry.]] She opposes Vermouth, having seen her hurt Haibara before, even if she doesn't know who her employers are. |
| 350 | * A former follower of Liam/Angel, he is happy to see the day that one of his followers got to ascend. She is happy to see him and hopes that he will do his best to atone his mistakes. She tries to give him advice when it comes to detective work that she learned from constantly hanging out with Shinichi and her father as he decided to become a detective and hopes he will be a successful one. Liam nonetheless appreciates the advice she gave him as he is far better at fighting demons than solving mysteries. |
| 351 | * She finally got to meet Shinichi's inspiration, Sherlock Holmes. She's somewhat happy to see that Shinichi isn't in the Pantheon, as while she does hold Holmes huge respect, she doesn't like the idea of hearing Shinichi rambling everything about him. She wanted to thank Holmes for being such an inspiration to Shinichi in his choices and possible career path, and that he became what he is today. During their first meeting, she asked him if he knows where her friend is, which he responded that he will tell her someday. |
| 352 | ** Considering that she is considered the Watson to Shinichi's Holmes, she was visited by John Watson. They do find some CommonalityConnection in that they both tend to ask questions to their respective partners when in comes to cases (although Ran started to do this less often, it's still there) and that they can be both protective of them by using their respective combat skills. She also feels bad to see how much he got {{flanderiz|ation}}ed by society, and noted that she hopes he will feel better someday and hopes that his wife, Mary Morstan, will ascend someday, considering that she died before Holmes returned, and hopes that they'll find true happiness along the way. |
| 353 | * As a karate champion, she wanted to know if there are any people that knows the art. This is when she met Makoto, who practices a style of karate called rindo-kan karate. She is curious to see what are the difference between her style of karate and Makoto's. The two respect and bonded with each other because of this and found that fighting each other is one of the most thrilling experiences that they ever have, with Makoto liking Ran even more for how kind and respectful personality combined with how considerate she is to her loved ones. In Ran's perspective, she thinks that Makoto's too serious and needs to calm down a little. |
| 354 | * She respects the Investigation Team for being able to solve the murders of Inaba by themselves despite the dangers of doing it, but she connected with Chie the most. They are both martial artists, have fears of the horror genre, with Ran encouraging her decision of becoming a police officer. Her thirst for eating also reminds Ran of Genta at times, and tries her best to teach Chie how to expand her cooking skills along with Yukiko and Rise. |
| 355 | ** Other Persona users she had the privilege of meeting that are tough like her are Akihiko Sanada and Makoto Niijima. She bonded with the former for their protective instincts from the people they love and being stubborn about it and their obliviousness of how the opposite sex attracted them. For the latter, she bonded with her thanks to her friendship with Sae Niijima. She felt bad that losing her father causes her to lose her passion as a police officer, which was eventually revived later on and also what she's been through, such as the rumors that she got as a student council president, being blackmailed, and being called useless to the point that it got her so much desperation to prove her usefulness. She also admires her sense of justice and hopes for the best for her. |
| 356 | * She isn't happy to see that Kaito Kid is a Pantheon god as he had rendered her unconscious once and disguised as her. He had also tried to kiss her when she thought that he was Shinichi. Kaito Kid didn't think that she would actually ascend, although he is spying on her using his dove whenever Conan asks him what she is doing around her day. |
| 357 | * Her father is a police officer, and still works closely with his former co-workers despite his irritating attitude and questionable idiocy. As such, she respects the law enforcement, but special mention goes to Lei Wulong and Chun-Li, not just because of their practice of martial arts, but also because they are competent in their job as police officers, which reminds her of cops like Detective Sato. She wanted to thank them that there are officers like them and that they try to make the world a better place. |
| 358 | ** She also respects Renee Montoya from those same reasons (minus the martial arts). When she heard that she got accused of murder, she sympathized with her as her father and her old captain also have gone through the same thing. She was also horrified to see that Renee's parents disowned her for being a lesbian. She's happy to see she got better from those experiences and hopes she will live a better life. |
| 359 | * Her mother is a professional lawyer and is nicknamed the "Queen of the Courtroom", thus she has huge respect to those that are lawyers with a sense of justice. Hearing about this, she met lawyers like Phoenix Wright, whom she respected because he has a huge sense of justice to the point he would rather have a client who actually committed a crime get a guilty verdict, although she thinks that he should have better deduction skills. She also got to meet Sae Niijima, who is happy to see her change of heart, developing a better sense of justice, and that she was able to reconcile with her sister (incidentally also named [[Pantheon/{{School}} Makoto]]), something that she wished that would happen to her father and mother, who were separated at the time being. |
| 360 | ** That said, she truly hates those a that are corrupted, which is the case with Manfred von Karma. She's disgusted to see that is able to convict innocent people with a guilty verdict, how he horribly educated his own children, and that he killed the father of his adoptive son just to keep a perfect record. She hopes to see the day that he will get karma when the time comes. |
| 361 | * One of her former teachers was a FBI agent, so she was curious to see if there are any that fit that job description. Meeting Will Graham and Clarice Starling, she is amazed at their empathy of criminals, she ended up pitying them hearing that they had been through against Hannibal Lecter, with Will becoming a literal drunk, and that one of their counterparts [[spoiler:ended up running away together with the serial killer]]. |
| 362 | ** There's also [[Pantheon/SpeechNToZ Peter Burke]], even if his division is more specialized for {{white collar crime}}s, though she was a bit conflicted at first with his partner [[Pantheon/SocialAndRecreationalWork Neal Caffrey]] (an ex-criminal) before learning of his backstory and acknowledging that he really wants to make things right. |
| 363 | * She cares a lot about children and will go to great lengths to protect them. As such, almost all kids love her because of her caring, nurturing attitude, but are simply afraid whenever her instincts kick in, but nonetheless love her and would totally have her as a babysitter. Although she is afraid of kids who don't have the mind of normal ones and creep her out, such as like Eric Cartman and Hansel and Gretel (not the classic pair, though). |
| 364 | * She fears ghosts, not because they are supernatural themselves, but because they would be invulnerable to her martial arts skills. She thus also fears other monsters, as she feels that they would be invulnerable as well. She tries her best to stay away from them as soon as possible, although her fear of monsters causes her to be an easy advantage by the evil-monstrous deities to be spook easily. |
| 365 | ** Until she was eventually backed into a corner and was forced to attack back. As soon as she realized that certain monsters are just as susceptible to her karate, her fear of them has lessened considerably. But those indeed invulnerable (like ghosts), she's going to run. |
| 366 | * She is extremely lucky in luck-based games such as poker and mahjong. Even though she hates poker, her luck in it is so good that it seems like she is a professional. A lot of people are disputed by how a girl who hates it is so good at it. When asked if she wanted to participate in an another poker round, she refused, as she prefers to keep a healthy lifestyle. |
| 367 | * Considering that she waited for Shinichi to permanently return, she is pitied by the entire House of Love, but special mention goes to Princess Cadence and Kyu Sugardust. The former feels bad for the pain that she held inside and hopes that Conan will finally find a way to defeat the Black Organization and reverse the effects on his body, or at least that she would know the truth. For the latter, seeing how made for each other Ran and Shinichi are, not to mention a few glares from Cadence, both are in her whitelist in that neither of them will be involved in her work (especially considering how much of a DudeMagnet Ran is). |
| 368 | * Also resides in the House of [[Pantheon/MartialArts Combat]]. |

| 395 | * Shorty the Squirrel was once an ordinary if stubborn squirrel Mobian until Dr Robotnik decided to kidnap his friends and neighbors. He wanted to create a new type of Badnik called a Cybernik, a nigh-indestructible armored soldier. Shorty was to act as a battery, but a combination of his own stubborn nature and him damaging equipment beforehand allowed him to retain control and use it as PoweredArmour. A solo-working Freedom Fighter with the exception of his good friend Tekno the Canary who he met by saving her from being turned into a Badnik, as thanks for saving her Tekno upgraded his armour, revealing that it was made of Megatel a metal that Tekno had invented when she was working Robotnik, Shortfuse was known to [[AsYouKnow re-explain his backstory often]] as a sort of RunningGag. Despite his power he hated the suit, however he would eventually be freed from it as part of a feedback loop to stop Robotnik's mad scheme of environmental collapse. Though he has a good heart, Shorty can prove difficult to work with and [[HairTriggerTemper his name is quite appropriate]]. |
| 396 | ** [[Webcomic/SonicTheComicOnline In the "unofficially official" fan continuation]], Tekno would create a new suit that he could take it on and off without issue. However some tampering by outside forces eventually led to some falling out between the two. Eventually the two would have to deal with "Set", an alien impersonating the Egyptian god causing trouble for them, and Tekno eventually killing "Set". He has returned from Solstice but it is clear that his relationship with Tekno was almost broken beyond repair, but Shorty and Tekno have begun to take small steps to repair their friendship after Robotnik turned Tekno into a Cybernik using her own Cybernik suit that she had made for Shorty, his current armour is made from Badnik parts. |
| 397 | * Shorty hails from [[ComicBook/SonicTheComic a far-off place in the Sonic multiverse]], called "Fleetway Sonic" by some and the STC universe by others. There [[AdaptationalJerkass Sonic is more irritable]], Super Sonic is a SuperpoweredEvilSide, there are Freedom Fighters like [[WesternAnimation/SonicTheHedgehogSatAM "SATAM" Sonic's world]] yet more lore/plots are akin to the games, among other differences. As the first from his continuity to show up, he had a lot to learn about the greater Sonic multiverse. For starters, when it comes to those he recognizes he couldn't recall Amy having such an open crush on Sonic or using a hammer, the Amy he knows uses her crossbow. He expected all the versions of Tails to be of average intelligence, he was shocked to find out that most of them are geniuses on the level of his friends Tekno and Porker Lewis. He can't recall Sally Acorn being a Freedom Fighter and a Princess, the Sally Acorn that he knows of is a reporter than he sees on tv. He is technically part of the Freedom Fighters, but they aren't on the best of terms since (much to his regret) [[RevengeBeforeReason he chose pursuing Vermin over stopping Johnny Lightfoot from falling into a chemical vat]], they have somewhat repaired their friendship since then but Shorty still prefers to work alone. While on the whole Shortfuse works alone, but he has formed outright friendships with Sonic deities he isn't familiar with. |
| 398 | ** He is one of many enemies of Dr Eggman, who at first didn't get why he kept calling him Dr Robotnik as [[VideoGame/SonicGenerations "nobody calls me that anymore"]]. The good doctor's prime self may not be as tyrannical as the one Shorty is familiar with, [[AffablyEvil but just because he's friendlier doesn't mean he's any less of a villain]]; if anything he considers the idea of a Cybernik [[UnwillingRoboticisation something he should do to more woodland creatures]]. Shorty's focus on opposing him led to an altercation with E-123 Omega as they both assumed they were Eggman's creations working against one another. However Omega realized that they ''both'' share a similar grudge, as Shorty is also a "creation" that rebels. Shorty warned him never to call him a "creation" and he isn't interested in Team Dark. [[NotSoSimilar Also, Omega takes pride in his power but Shorty]] [[CursedWithAwesome hates being a Cybernik]]. When opposing Eggman the two act more as rivals, but with some degree of respect for one another. |
| 399 | ** The other villains Shorty recalls hearing about that exist in the prime universe are Metal Sonic, Nack the Weasel and Chaos. The latter was a lot less hostile than he remembers, being [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds a tragic destroyer]] [[HeelFaceTurn who had a change of heart thanks to Sonic]], [[AdaptationalVillainy instead of]] [[Monster/SonicTheHedgehog the utterly vile]] [[AdaptationSpeciesChange mutated Drakon prosecutor]]. He doesn't have any problem with the former incarnation, but tends to keep his distance. Metal considers him more of a nuisance and inconvenience and Nack the Weasel only has a basic good vs evil dynamic with Shortfuse. Shorty has mused that Metal is easier to keep track with than the one in his universe since there's only one of him, and has noted Nack's prime self is not nearly as impressive [[AdaptationalBadass as the criminal he's familiar with]]. |
| 400 | ** As for the newer Sonic antagonists he never knew about, he is understandable opposed on principle to Black Doom [[ToServeMan for the goal he has for the world]], and the different version of Solaris [[OmnicidalManiac for not wanting a world, or even reality as we know it]]. More personally, he considers Infinite a sort of EvilCounterpart of himself as they're both prideful and were empowered by Robotnik, but he remained a hero and rebellious while Infinite was a mercenary who joined Eggman to indulge in power-lust, cruelty and [[TheBully bullying]]. |
| 401 | * The RunningGag of [[AsYouKnow explaining his backstory]] may be what got him a position in the Trope Pantheon, but to the readers and people within it it's a source of derision. Some have made fun of him as "being as annoying as Scrappy Doo", [[InsultBackfire but Shorty doesn't see how that's an insult]] as he actually likes Scrappy. This is probably down to Scrappy being, well, a scrappy fighter and he thinks Scrappy's got spunk, so he enjoys fighting alongside him. Another hero lacking the best reputation, [[Pantheon/NegativeReaction Hot Rod]], was noted by Shorty. While they're ambivalent outside of the general fight against evil, Shortfuse was nice enough to say that he thinks it's unfair that Hot Rod got called a ReplacementScrappy considering [[ToughActToFollow who could really live up to Optimus Prime?]] |
| 402 | * Shortfuse is reminded of his own armor seeing Iron Man's PoweredArmour. He's not sure how to feel about [[Pantheon/TypesOfMechas Tony Stark]], as part of his wants to admit he makes impressive suits while another is reminded of the baggage of his suit and why he has it. Tony doesn't think he and Shorty would be a good hero team-up, but he does think he and James Howlett would get along; like Shorty Logan is on the temperamental side, and while his adamantium endoskeleton certainly helps him it wasn't by his choice and ''very'' painful. A JerkWithAHeartOfGold like Shorty, the two decided to talk with each other after overhearing Tony's musings and found they were starting to like each other. Though he'd rather not test it, Shorty wonders which is stronger and by how much; Megatel armor or adamantium blades. As he survived months in a ''volcano'' when an EMP knocked out his systems, Wolverine's pretty sure it'd be an actual challenge. |
| 403 | * While Megatel is nigh indestructible, it is not truly invulnerable. Robotnik once dealt with [[TheStarscream a traitorous Badnik]] made out of the stuff [[KillItWithIce by dousing him in liquid nitrogen and shattering him]]. The suit itself has a limited supply of oxygen so if he's stuck underwater he could drown, and it is susceptible to computer programs; aliens once aided him with a program that let him enter and leave the suit at will. Sadly, he lost this program in order to thwart his enemy Vermin the Cybernik. Shorty has chosen to tread carefully in the House of Pantheon/MachineryAndTechnology out of concern some of the more nefarious members will try to hijack the suit for their own ends, and when he has to visit the Hall of Pantheon/IceAndCold he avoids antagonizing any cryomancers. Shorty also avoids large bodies of water when in the suit. He was kind of freaked out when Wolverine revealed why he doesn't like swimming; his adamantium bones would sink him [[ImmortalityHurts and his healing factor would keep him drowning for a painfully long time]]. |
| 404 | * Because of how he was unable to take it off for the longest time, one wonders how Shorty was supposed to eat or use the bathroom, the only answer being Eggman's musing of "well, it's not like any of my Badniks ever needed it". However being stuck in the suit unable to experience those things or properly fit in to society certainly add to Shorty's distaste of the suit. He relates to Alphonse about the inevitable SenseLossSadness that comes with it. There are a couple other deities who know the pain of being stuck in a suit, but they're certainly not friendly; Dr Weil and Victor Fries. Like most people Shorty's disgusted at Weil for somehow being a ''worse'' tyrant and criminal than Fleetway Robotnik, and thinks the only mistake [[FateWorseThanDeath subjecting him to that fate]] was the people who did being stupid enough to let him potentially return. He's a lot less vitriolic at Mr Freeze as [[AntiVillain he's genuinely sympathetic]], but as he's still a criminal Shortfuse doesn't trust the guy. |
| 405 | * Seeing as how he was forcefully turned into a Cybernik and only kept his free will out of a mix of stubbornness and damaged systems, Shorty is ''appalled'' by the Cybermen. UnwillingRoboticisation is a horrifying concept for him and the Cybermen suppress their souls alongside with [[BodyHorror surgically altering themselves]] to be more mechanical. [[WellIntentionedExtremist They insist that it's for survival]], but Shortfuse agrees with the Doctor that it's a FateWorseThanDeath. Unsurprisingly the Cybermen, and anyone else cool with UnwillingRoboticisation, don't care what he thinks; they're more interested in incorporating Megatel into their design. Dr Gero is currently trying to capture Shortfuse the Cybernik so he can analyze the suit and upgrade his android body into one made of Megatel. |
| 406 | * Outside of the Sonic franchise Shorty has a number of specific deities he considers to be an enemy, first of them being Set. The pantheon's Set may not be the same one he had to deal with and he's in fact grateful that the imposter was dealt with, but the squirrel knows the real deal is bad news and wants to make sure he can't cause trouble on Mobius. However even Set is but a lamb to the ''other'' alien claiming to be the Egyptian deity, Sutekh the Destroyer. Though Sutekh [[OmnicidalManiac considers life down to the bacterium as his enemy]], [[PhysicalGod he finds Shortfuse's opposition]] [[UnknownRival as laughable]]. The Osirian is such a dire threat that Shorty is tempted to take [[EvilVersusOblivion Set's offer of a power up to help fight him]], but refuses to take it [[DealWithTheDevil because he knows he'll be indebted to the desert god]]. |
| 407 | * Agent Smith and Hal Stewart are also enemies of Shorty. The former is because he is a digital OmnicidalManiac who has the ability to take over and replace people both in the virtual world, and should they be able to leave the Matrix, the physical. Disgusted by his inhabiting of humans, he would rather hijack a strong Megatel body like the suit Shortfuse uses. Due to what nearly happened to him Shorty was disgusted to learn that the Matrix used [[LivingBattery people as a power source]], which motivates him to give aid to the crew of the Nebuchadnezzar. While appreciated, he's still a moody solo hero so it's not like they're friendly with each other. The latter is an enemy because like Infinite he sees him as an EvilCounterpart, if not an outright {{Foil}}-Hal also gained great power without meaning to (albeit because someone wanted a hero and not a minion), but he quickly abused his powers and was an entitled manchild. |
| 408 | * While mainly focused on revenge against Eggman and other singular enemies, gods who glorify machine supremacy or war itself are the two types of gods Shorty actively opposes. The likes of Pantheon/TheAssimilation and Pantheon/RexMachina are down to his long history opposing Robotnik's machines, and while they aren't beholden to any organic many have rather negative goals for organics like Shorty-they also would love to finish where Robotnik started and turn make Shortfuse their thrall. Many war-glorifying deities are opposed by the squirrel due to one of his adventures; when he was left without a purpose during Robotnik's overthrow he joined up with the alien Insectra Empire supposedly to fight evil aliens, but in reality they hijacked his suit in order to fight a pointless, bloody war. He's still ashamed by the whole fiasco and is disgusted by any group who's mission statement is [[ForeverWar endless war]]. |
| 409 | * Him and Brian Griffin don't see eye to eye; Brian thinks he's annoying, Shorty thinks he's pretentious and both have called the other HolierThanThou. Closer observation reveals the real reason they don't get along is [[AnimalJingoism because Shorty is a squirrel and Brian is a dog]]. While Shorty doesn't show many squirrel-like traits, Brian [[FurryReminder still acts like a dog]] and he has a very poor reputation in the squirrel community for hunting squirrels. Brian tried to rile up him more by giving him directions to another squirrel, that being Screwy Squirrel. While Shorty can be annoyed, Screwy's mischief and trickery quickly got on Shorty's nerves and he had a shouting match with him before storming off and leaving. |
| 410 | * Kronk and Squirrel Girl are not squirrels, but they do really like them. Kronk is capable of speaking squirrel, and he thinks the idea of a squirrel superhero in metal armor is pretty cool. Together with Squirrel Girl, the two hit up on the idea of making a squirrel-themed superhero team alongside [[Pantheon/GameMechanics Conker]] and [[Pantheon/CharacterRoles Scrat]]. Thanks to the latter's ComicallyInvincibleHero routine the group has earned the ire of much of the Pantheon/GrandUnitedAllianceOfEvil for defeating heavy hitters like [[Pantheon/GUAEMastermind Aku]] off-screen with squirrels, and perhaps most satisfying of all was Shorty punching out Eggman and breaking his stuff. However Shorty ultimately prefers working on his own, and asked to leave. He did enjoy his company, but he stated that it's not just an attitude problem from him; he's actually have criticisms to Doreen's way of doing things. |
| 411 | -->'''Shortfuse''': "With all do respect I don't think [[ParodySue your shtick]] is a permanent solution. Your powers are gag-based, so while you can thwart [[Pantheon/TyrannicalFigures Thanos]] you can't stop him for good because that wouldn't work tonally. I can humiliate Robotnik with you, but I don't think I can put a final end to his villainy unless it's done seriously. And I can't imagine [[LighterAndSofter you'd be compatible]] with [[KnightOfCerebus dead-serious villains]] like [[Pantheon/{{Toxicity}} the Lich]] or [[Pantheon/{{Villainy}} Femto]] either". |
| 412 | * For those wondering how he feels about the prehistoric squirrel Scrat, he feels pity and frustration. Scrat is stubborn like him and will never stop going after that nut, [[EveryoneHasStandards but Shorty feels it's not worth it]]. As for Conker he's ambivalent since outside of the brief time they worked together they don't have much in common. Shorty does like the squirrel girl Makoto Nanaya because in his opinion she has a good attitude, however this is more a general respect as he's otherwise not interested in her own adventures. Conker likes to joke his interest [[{{Stripperific}} is for]] [[MsFanservice another reason]]. |
| 413 | * As Shorty spends more time in the Trope Pantheon, he becomes more interested in being a better hero in order to oppose Robotnik. Finn decided to help him with that, as while opposing evil has always been his deal he's gone through a good amount of development and maturity in his time. Two other heroes who wanted to help and work with Shorty were Earthworm Jim and Finn. Jim, like Shorty, has his powers thanks to the super suit he wears, though he has no hang-ups or issues with it. Finn used to be a Stormtrooper before turning to the good guy's side, and he was indoctrinated as one when he was very young. Because of that, he can sympathize with Shorty's outrage at how Robotnik forcibly turned people into Badniks. |
| 414 | * He dislikes Godzilla and Mecha Godzilla because of their resemblance to the Mekanik Badnik a giant green dinosaur Badnik with a powerful breath attack. |

| 453 | * It's a story basically everyone knows by now; a man emerged as one of the richest people on the planet. Yet no matter what he did, he couldn't express his love towards anyone. In the end, he ended up DyingAlone, where a reporter tried to figure out what motivated him. While he failed to find the answer, the audience was gifted with the answer; the sled "Rosebud" represented the love he so desperately sought and was taken away from him ever since he moved away from his mother and son. It was ironic that this world would be the only one that didn't know the secret origins of Charles Kane. |
| 454 | ** Kane at least managed to bring happiness to one person in the Pantheon. After languishing for her death at the hands of Sephiroth, Aeris no longer wanted to be remembered in that way. An opening was created for {{White Mage}}s, but she needed someone to take her place. It just so happened that Kane was more than happy to take the burden if it means having a second chance at happiness. |
| 455 | ** This development did not please Sephiroth as he was robbed of one of his greatest pleasures in the Pantheon. He has since attacked Kane on several occasions. |
| 456 | * His temple is the massive castle known as Xanadu. It houses [[CollectorOfTheStrange a wide variety of objects]], but holds very few people to maintain it. When he found out his beloved sled could still be in his castle, he frantically searched for it to no avail. It appears that the PowersThatBe has cursed him. His sled is indeed there, but his is doomed to be unable to find it among his vast domain. Some prophets say he will be reunited with his sled when he able to express an act of true love towards someone. |
| 457 | ** To add insult to injury, none of his past lovers want any part of becoming his herald. Neither Emily nor Susan want to be with a man who cares more about himself than his own lovers. The only familiar person in his temple is Jedediah Leland and even he failed to achieve any sort of herald status. Still, Leland hopes that this new lease of life will help him out in the long run. |
| 458 | * His biggest issue is that even with his ascension he has failed to gain any true allies. His first task in the House of Commerce was to attack the evil gods there to fight for the little man. Mr. Burns responded with a smear campaign that forced the House to severely limit his presence there. Not even Chester Bum could defend him with a straight face. |
| 459 | ** Scrooge and Kaiba promptly pointed out that while [[TheManIsStickingItToTheMan railing against the rich despite being rich himself]] isn't a crime, the two believed he is only doing so to win the love of the people rather than actually giving a damn about their plight. Though it is likely the two are actually mad because Kane has been hurting their own finances with his talk. |
| 460 | * The House of Love was less forgiving. The deities were horrified with the fate of both his wives. As such, they advised their followers against having a relationship with him. |
| 461 | ** One of his few allies there is Vlad Masters. He dismisses criticism for his [[InLovewithLove pursuit of Maddie]] as false, and sees a man who craves love as he does. As such, he gives Kane pointers on how to woo women... which will only likely to cause him to fail even more. |
| 462 | * Authors both deified and mortal despise his name. Kane reminds them of how their stories are so well known, the surprise is robbed from the viewer. This also arrives in the form of {{Content Leak}}s that reveal the nature of works before their arrival. |
| 463 | * He did manage to find someone as desperate to find adoration as he did. Norma Desmond arrived at his temple for a proposition; she would date him if he bankrolled her to more headline shows. Thus he helped Norma to attend a number of roles... all to a quiet crowd. Charles then proceeded to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51iohb6sOS8 clap to the encores himself]]. Thus, he was pilloried by the press once more. When Kane went to Jameson's office to protest, the news editor showed him the door. The two still dream of jump-starting their fame despite the setbacks. |
| 464 | ** In response, Lois Lane did some research on the man. With the help of Clark Kent, she released an editorial describing Kane as [[FreudianExcuse someone who never learned how to love someone]]. This helped gain some sympathy from the general public. |
| 465 | * One of his few true friends, Jay Gatsby tried to help Kane to better establish him in the Pantheon. He knows what it's like to be isolated despite having all the money in the world. It was a surprise to Jay how much more the common folk liked the two of them than their own peers and decided that the two should do more outreach work for those people. Unfortunately, Kane's own selfishness keeps getting in the way of gaining praise. |
| 466 | * Was weirded out that [[Pantheon/{{Logic}} a big-headed mouse named Brain]] sounds like [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed someone doing an impression of]] [[Creator/OrsonWelles Kane]]. While on that, he has ignored [[Pantheon/FacialHair Yosemite Sam's]] requests to check out [[Recap/TinyToonAdventuresS1E22CitizenMax that time his herald]] [[Westernanimation/TinyToonAdventures Montana Max]] [[WholePlotReference did a send-up of Kane's story]]. |
| 467 | * Got upset with Peter Griffin when he learned that Peter taped over Kane's movie and [[https://youtu.be/ILSbYH9pvjQ?si=YLdw124RASwFzYU0 spoiled the ending for unsuspecting viewers.]] |
| 468 | * He's also present in the [[Pantheon/RevealsAndTwists House of Narrative]]. |

He is seeking further information on Spider-Man's ascension, and whether or not Gods who never show their faces are truly worthy of Godhood. |
| 490 | * Hates Spider-Man with a passion that none of the other Gods can comprehend. He'll demand anything he can to ruin his reputation with: Photos, stories, [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons and even poems]]. |
| 491 | -->"Spider-Man is a menace!!!" |
| 492 | ** Not that his opinion towards other superheroes is any better. |
| 493 | --> "You Avengers, the Fantastic Four, you're all vigilantes! [[TheRealHeroes You're not real heroes like astronauts, or police officers, or firemen]], [[ItsAllAboutMe or newspaper publishers]]!" |
| 494 | ** [[Pantheon/PhysicalPowers Jessica Jones]] holds a particular grudge on Jameson given [[ComicBook/ThePulse she worked for him while pregnant with Danielle]]. |
| 495 | ** For years, people have been wondering [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKuxBRRKV1g just why Jonah keeps slandering Spider-Man]] [[spoiler:before finding out who he really was]]: [[WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries In one timeline]], [[FreudianExcuse his wife was killed by a masked man]]. There's the classic dilemma from Spider-Man being a vigilante ([[Film/SpiderMan3 the fact that if he snaps, it'll be hard to stop him]]). It can't be for the money, [[ComicBook/NewAvengers2015 as when he was given a chance for]] ''exclusive coverage'' on the Avengers' activities in exchange for ''not'' smearing Spider-Man, he ''still'' smeared Spider-Man. In another continuity, his reason is because Spider-Man helps heroes for free and Jonah feels less noble as a result. In ''Amazing Fantasy #18'', his reason is because Spider-Man bumped off his son John Jameson (the astronaut) in a TV show, [[DamnedByFaintPraise though he apparently thought "Spider-Man" was a catchy name]]. ("[[AndThatsTerrible And I do hate spiders almost as much as I hate cowards in masks!]]") One other source claims that he claims he didn't want kids emulating Spider-Man's reckless actions and drawing attention away from TheRealHeroes. In ''Behind The Mustache'', it's revealed that [[spoiler:his abusive stepfather was a war hero]], and perhaps he distrusts those who claim to be heroes (like Spider-Man) as a result (except he reveres his own astronaut son, and even stopped picking on Spider-Man when he was convinced that John Jameson ''is'' Spider-Man). One more solid reason however can be found in [[Literature/SpiderManSinisterSixTrilogy The Revenge of the Sinister Six]]: Jonah smears Spider-Man [[spoiler:in order to keep on spurring the Web-Crawler to continue being the best hero he can be, like some sort of negative reinforcement]]. |
| 496 | * His reaction to witnessing [[Pantheon/{{Otherness}} Godzilla]] causing a stir in the House of Knowledge? [[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bf6JDqQZoEM/UDVKwAWpbBI/AAAAAAAABLc/QbEqlYFD23Y/s640/Godzilla-23.jpg Throwing insults right into the King of Monsters' face.]] |
| 497 | * Occasionally he'd be receiving ridiculous propositions for certain news. If Jonah even agreed that it's ridiculous, his response is usually [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwSts2s4ba4 laughing and eventually replying with "You serious?"]] |
| 498 | * When he heard that Peter Parker managed to get out of the Fallen, he yelled out "[[MemeticMutation AAAWWW YYYEEAA]]!" |
| 499 | * Prefers not to comment on how [[Pantheon/FieldsOfScience Cave Johnson]] [[Creator/{{JKSimmons}} sounds like him]], but has stated he could write a month's worth of news out of the whimsical stuff Aperture created. Despite the latter opposing his views towards Spider-Man in favor of replicating the results, Jonah believes if all goes well, it could run the actual wall-crawler out of business. |
| 500 | * There are certain rumors running around that he has known about Peter Parker's secret life as Spider-Man [[http://i.imgur.com/7eyrZ.png since the very beginning]], something he supposedly revealed when Venom allegedly attempted to expose it. |
| 501 | * Was approached by [[Pantheon/InvestigativeWork Louis Bloom]] regarding some freelance work, as while Bloom usually works with videography, he's still specialized in the kind of sensationalism that the ''Bugle'' loves. But Jameson also has some standards and after hearing from Peter how he and a lot of other reporters had almost been seriously hurt because of Louis' schemes, Jameson resolved not to be taken in by his sweet talk and told him he already had enough photographers on his payroll. |
| 502 | * Madison Paige also does freelance work for the ''Bugle'', and despite disliking his obsession with getting pictures of Spider-Man as well as his overall hardass demeanor, the two nonetheless share a mutual respect for one another, as Madison can tell that [[BigEgoHiddenDepths he's a good person deep down]] and Jameson strongly approves of her integrity and good character. |
| 503 | * The tension between and Soviet and American deities doesn't abate Georgy Zhukov's courtesy towards anyone - something he shares with Jameson, another hot-tempered, straightforward man who holds zero prejudices or IrrationalHatred because he HatesEveryoneEqually. Jameson for his part has written both positive and negative exposes on Zhukov's conduct, and that untempered streak of objectivity sort of impresses the general. |
| 504 | * Eddie Brock would eventually come in contact with J. Jonah Jameson again. While to two aren't exactly friends, at the very least they don't hate each other. Eddie eventually found out that Jameson is the reason why he's been having an easier time then when he first arrived in Pantheon. He said that it was because Peter asked to help let others know that he's a hero now, and that he's trying to help. Jameson tells him not to thank him, but to make sure he doesn't do anything to make him regret his decision. |
| 505 | * Diana Christensen is predictably despised by a large number of journalists in the Pantheon for her abysmal treatment of the news program all for the sake of higher ratings, and overall lack of ethics. Jameson (along with Louis) will happily denounce her practices in their newspapers, which Diana doesn't mind as she sees it as free publicity. She's also snidely hinted at Jameson that the way he puts a savior like Spider-Man on the front pages calling him a menace isn't much different from what he claims she does. Jameson by his turn holds that he's doing it strictly for the public safety and he really believes what he's saying. |
| 506 | * Jonah once reported about Kilian Experience cheering for a terrorist attack, which greatly irritated the youtuber. While preparing to strike back via calling cyberbullying, Kilian was asked the context of the quote. He explained that it came from his political science video on creating the perfect the perfect society and to do that he had to end much of civilization and create a dystopian one out of it and run a DeadlyGame. The idea is to create an environment to produce a revolutionary to rise up but they ended up... killing everyone and damning the last vestige of humanity to extinction. [[NotHelpingYourCase Yeah.]] But in a roundabout way he succeeded: [[MetaphoricallyTrue No one is complaining. Therefore, society is perfect]]. |
| 507 | * Though he may be very much anti-Spider-Man, his articles when not reporting on the web slinger are actually rather fair and informed. He is also willing to retract any information that is found to be false, even information on Spider-Man. Suffice to say, [[EveryoneHasStandards he isn’t too happy]] to hear about fellow journalist deity Aya Shameimaru, whose reports are far more exaggerated than his on Spider-Man. And she does these over-the-top reports constantly, too, given that its basically one of the main forms of media that Gensokyo has, a fact that he will concede to the tengu. |

| 526 | * Springfield's Channel 6 is the most watched channel, and somebody has to be the anchorman. That being Kent Brockman, the opinionated, judgmental and ratings-hungry news show host of Channel 6 News. He's also involved with Eye on Springfield and Smartline. |
| 527 | * Because of the various chaotic on-goings that come with the sheer variety and power of all the deities, Kent Brockman jumped at the opportunity to present it. He sure as hell isn't going to let someone "boring" present the pantheon news, though often by "boring" everyone else thinks "professionalism". Half of why pantheon members watch him is because of his foibles and trying to make things more dramatic than they are. |
| 528 | * Thinks that he should be part of the Hall of Types of Narration. He was considered, but asides from being a better fit for Sources of Information he kept trying to push his agenda there and got on the nerves of the gods present. He thinks they're just jealous. |
| 529 | * Tends towards more schmaltzy and sensational stories, rather than more important stories like he's supposed to. One time, he ended up distracted from a kid under a well by talking about a squirrel that looked like Abraham Lincoln. Who ended up also being assassinated and further diverting his focus. The actual Abraham Lincoln wasn't pleased. |
| 530 | * Most don't care for Kent Brockman on a personal level, as he often feuds with other Channel 6 figures, especially Arnie Pye in the Sky. A lot of this has to do with his ego. Because of this he can understand where James Cameron is coming from by being a PrimaDonnaDirector. Of course, this is probably just him wanting to get an interview with the director. |
| 531 | * Doesn't have many friends, but he did manage to get along with J.Jonah Jameson. Jameson is also sensationalist, though they often argue on the other not be professional enough. Spider-Man just rolled his eyes at this. |
| 532 | * Despite his behavior, Kent Brockman does try to be professional at times. This was pushed upon his interaction with Metatron. [[Pantheon/ReligionAndFaith YHVH]], wanting to skew the pantheon's news channels for propaganda purposes, suggested Metatron make Brockman be focused on His cause. [[EveryoneHasStandards Even he utterly refused]], only to be let on fire. YHVH doesn't care enough about him to try again and Metatron doesn't feel like wasting his time, but Kent still takes it personally. |
| 533 | * Fears Light Yagami due to his first public killing via the Death Note being the fake L on TV. He is afraid that Kira will blackmail him, but so far he doesn't think Brockman is worth his effort. Also, while Kent Brockman remains neutral on the denizens of Springfield, he opposes Sideshow Bob due to the time he tried to cancel television with the threat of a nuclear bomb. |
| 534 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4jWAwUb63c Once overreacted to ants magnified on the screen]], thinking it was giant ants planning to conquer the world. [[NeverLiveItDown Infamously]] he decided [[TheQuisling to sell out]] [[MemeticMutation and welcome the new insect overlords]]. He avoids ant deities so he's not reminded of this. He also avoids Bill Cipher, since when someone tried to pull TheQuisling [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O96Jure38bA this happened]]. |

| 552 | * Interested in: [[Pantheon/ChildBehavior Harriett M. Welsch]], [[Pantheon/LoveInterests The Katawa Shoujo girls, Cheryl Blossom]], [[Pantheon/MedicalConditions Hisao Nakai]] |
| 553 | * Tamie Nogi is the president of [[OneGenderSchool Vincennes Academy's]] newspaper club. While this wouldn't normally be a big deal for most schools, she and her club have significant influence among both the students and faculty. This is mainly due to the school being a BoardingSchool that is mostly isolated from the outside world, making her club the sole source of valuable information. |
| 554 | * Many of the matters she covers include student council election results, sports-related stuff, and covering TheOneGuy who had moved into their OneGenderSchool as part of an "experiment" on whether going coed is the way for the school's future. |
| 555 | * While she does take an interest in this guy, in most scenarios she would be a HopelessSuitor due to focusing on her job as a reporter, and him focusing on the main heroines. In one scenario, however, [[AscendedExtra she gets]] [[PromotedToLoveInterest to become a protagonist herself]], [[GenreSavvy seemingly realizes this]], and [[ThirdOptionLoveInterest becomes a love interest for him outside of his "core" circle of friends]]. |
| 556 | * She is more than willing to [[IntrepidReporter go to dangerous lengths]] to cover stories, even so far as to facing {{Yakuza}} at gunpoint and taking photos of the armed men. [[Pantheon/{{School}} Makoto Nijima]] chastises her for this reckless move, as her past experiences had her in a similar situation that could have ended badly. She admits her recklessness to the StudentCouncilPresident, and makes it a point to keep distance from the House of Pantheon/CrimeAndTransgressions whenever she can. |
| 557 | * Sees Harriett M. Welsch as a worthy apprentice, and she takes the time to teach the young girl about basic journalism and photography. In essence, she practically sees a lot of herself in her. |
| 558 | * Is reluctant to approach [[Pantheon/FightingStyles Kazuma Kiryu]] due to him being associated with the {{Yakuza}}. However, when she learns that he's actually nicer than he looks, she comes to respect his good nature, and even decides to interview his exploits so that other deities would get to know that he's actually a rather good person. |
| 559 | * Looks up to other journalists and reporters in the Pantheon, in particular Lois Lane and J. Jonah Jameson, mainly due to their high-standing influence and reputation. She herself seeks to be like them when she grows up, in particular wanting to be an anchorwoman on national television. Thus, she's often seen going around the rest of the House of Knowledge in her constant quest for more stories and improvement in her writing methods. However, what Nogi ''doesn’t want'' is to go overboard with her reports and how she gets them, which is why she is a bit disapproving towards Aya Shameimaru, and a lot more disapproving towards Louis Bloom. For Aya in particular, she would very much want to keep her friend Masaya away from the tengu at all costs, not wanting [[CannotKeepASecret anything that comes out of Masaya's mouth]] to end up in the Bunbunmaru. |
| 560 | * Outside of journalism, she also has an interest in relationships and love, partly thanks to her aforementioned status of being PromotedToLoveInterest. She can often be seen conversing with deities from Pantheon/LoveInterests in her free time, in particular with the Katawa Girls (due to being from a similarly exclusive school as her own), as well as Cheryl Blossom (due to both of them being {{Third Option Love Interest}}s). She also takes an interest in Hisao Nakai, mostly because of his resemblance to the same guy that she went out with in her possible scenario, although this time she wasn't willing to go that far on him. |
| 561 | ** Is opposed to Irene Adler despite their similar circumstances, mostly because of [[spoiler:her true nature as Jamie Moriarty]], which she manages to deduce after taking the time to observe her. |
| 562 | * With Konomi Yanase's ascension into the Pantheon, Tamie is relieved at meeting a familiar face. Immediately, she seeks her acquaintance out to try and get a story from her. |
