Alphonse Elric, A is A: Legs to Walk

  • The encounter with the AXIOM Scout during the Team’s first excursion into the Disney Villains Victorious Gridlocked world. The AXIOM’s overweight citizens are outfitted with weapons and VR technology to act as unwitting shocktroopers under the illusion that they’re playing a harmless game. One of these poor dupes is defeated and taken out this illusion, confused and terrified upon witnessing the terrible reality he finds himself trapped in. The Team attempts to keep him alive for as long as possible, but his unhealthy, innocently hedonistic lifestyle ensures he doesn’t survive long in the Wastes before expiring. Fluttershy is devastated at the sight of a wasted life.
