Iron Base

Mason: I wasn't aware she talked me up like that, but yeah, I'm her brother. And I'd like to make sure my sister doesn't get hurt more than she already has.

-He turns to Lewis.-

Mason: You, go off and do... whatever. Have fun. I'm coming with Blondie here to get Alonya to safety.

Team Iron Fuckhouse

-Owen carefully scoops Alonya up and starts carrying her off, Sombra somberly following-

---

-A change washes over Heracles. A... mad enchantment of sorts-

-His pupils shrink, his draconic muscles bulge, and his normal disgruntled expression turns into one of pure, unadulterated feral rage-

Heracles: <rrrrrrraaAAAAAAAAAAA   AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH>   

-The roar echoes through the base as he charges, tearing down and destroying everything in sight with claws and wanton attacks-

-Fun fact: Since "Shard" is technically a Ghost/Dark type, the Play Rough hits "her" particularly hard. As they fall, Ever's kick knocks the wind from their chest and they go rolling back several feet, gasping for air.-

"Shard"'s Attack was reduced!

"Shard": Ugh... guess the game's up now...

-Meanwhile, the second Shard - who has now dropped her question mark - staggers forwards upon being hit, before whipping around to tear at both Gabe and Plague Doktor with a Brutal Swing.-

Shard: Nice try. Won't save you.

-Cytokinesis remains silent as she brings a Blizzard down on the field, condensing the icy mist into razor-sharp clusters that swirl around her.-

Trans rights are human rights. JK Rowling preaches hate. If you sit at a table with five bigots and say nothing, there are now six bigots.

Team Iron Auxiliary Scrapheap Base

-The entire base from top to bottom shivers under the sheer weight of combat. The supports set under the base to keep it stable during tectonic activity are buckling under the strain.-

Alolan Seas, The Red Wings

Cid: You know why I do this.

*FWOOM! FWOOM!*

Balthier: I know, but that doesn't mean you're right!

-Cid's concussion ray has one significant advantage over Balthier's slug thrower - he doesn't need to reload. He slowly stalks his assailant around the deck as the Sky Pirate Captain ducks and dives under other combatants and machinery.-

Previa: Um... Um... Um... Oh! HEY!

-Previa dives over by Zrone.-

Previa: I need you to run a formula for me. If the result is greater than 10^12th, blink once. If it's lower, blink twice!

-He then lists off a string of calculations with units that make no real sense, though the result does come out to just over 10^12th power.-

Skies over Alola

*BZZT! BZZZZZAP!*

Lewis: Sure - Whoa! -startled by the echoes of the roar- I need to find my Pokemon. Thanks again for saving me! -runs off- (What in the Fonz's name was that! I hope Manasseh has found Dasher...)

There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.

Due to an issue with data vampires, we present to you a summarized version of this post's events.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to get garlic, a stake, holy water, and various religous symbols.

-Shaun, Beowulf, and Tsunami got together and paused in an empty corridor.-

-Ace explained where Tapu Bulu would likely be held and why he can't access the computer system.-

-Achille has begun to lead the group in search of an Iron grunt so he can execute a plan.-

---

-The Confagrigus/Draugr Wight is wrapped in Caterpie string...and enclosed in an Ultra Ball.-

Farkas: <What.>

-The Draugr Wight bursts out of the ball.-

Draugr Wight: <Aar, Viik Niin!>^Translation Servant, defeat them!

-The rest of those sarcophagi? A multitude of them burst open, revealing Yamasks.-

Farkas: <Great...>

-His stance changes as he rushes at the Confagrigus.-

Farkas: <I've had enough of your kind!>

-He strikes the Confagrigus with an Obscura coated blade.-

-The Confagrigus responds with a Will O' Wisp.-

Farkas: <Oh, for the love of Talos...>

-Meanwhile, the Yamasks begin to swarm the group.-

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Team Iron Base

-Mason stands up, gestures for Mako to follow, and heads off after Owen.-

Mason: No prob, Helix guy, good luck with the rest of this mess!

Alolan Seas, The Red Wings

Zrone: -His eye flickers, constricts and glows and then resizes back to it's full size-

-Then blinks once-

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Cris, not able to do much else, tries to keep them at bay with String Shots.

Tsubasa, meanwhile, tries to Peck the ones that get too close away.

"life is just a series of increasingly canon-eluding ao3 tags" ~ everydunsparce "Keep your hellfruit away from me, tempter" ~ also Every

Ever: Lucius, you've made a lot of poor decisions, but this is, like...another level.

-unimpeded by people punching him, and helped by Access, Ever pulls himself to his feet-

-and then the Blizzard happens-

Ever: Can nothing today go right?

-he dives somewhat awkwardly in front of Lucius, though it's about 50-50 whether he's trying to protect him from the consequences of his teammate's attack or just keep him from rejoining the fight-

Ever: Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow—

-Access swears loudly, but it's rather muffled by the fact that she's completely buried in snow-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Alolan Seas, The Red Wings

Previa: Good shit! Then I just need to slap on one more circuit... Then... just... gotta...

-A strange pulse fires from the dish atop the heap of circuits and wires. The clouds above seem to twitch like muscle before gathering.-

Previa: HOLY SHIT IT WORKED! WOO! I AM A GENIUS!

-The sound of rolling thunder heralds the clouds metastasize into a massive thunderhead above the entwined vessels.-

???

-Ugh.-

-Noise.-

-Ignore.-

-Rest.-

-Sleep.-

Alolan Seas, The Red Wings

-He blinks out in rapid Morse- [WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME WE MADE A WEATHER MANIPULATOR]

[ALSO WEAPONIZING THE WEATHER IS AGAINST THE TERMS OF SOME RULESET I NEVER BOTHERED READING]

[IT'S AMAZING]

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Artoria just stares in both awe and terror.

Meanwhile, Mordred shows up. <... I'm jealous.>

Artoria: <You are also not a god.>

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

Team Iron Fuckhouse

-There is a roar near the battling foursome-

-Heracles suddenly bursts in and attacks anything that gets near, homing in on Lucius in particular-

-Gabe's eyes widen and he rushes over to Ever-

Gabe: I am so sorry about this but GET IN THE BAG WHOEVER YOU ARE

-he stuffs Ever in his hammerspace bag and runs, Plague Doktor in hot pursuit-

Silas and his team were in a panic headed for the exit, Silas wanted to get out of dodge before the obibital bombardment started, Bishop, Hacks, and Snakeye not far behind.

He was surprised to see Jimmy again, "What the hell?"

Jimmy was also in a sprint with his team out of there, "Situation is FUBAR! Getting the hell out of dodge!" was the only explanation Jimmy offered.

Silas called to the others, "Base is falling apart. Retreat is optimal. Leave now."

"Shoulda figured that wouldn't work. Hacks, Dark Pulse please."

Hacks nodded and fired off a dark pulse at the Cofagrigis as Silas readied another Ultra Ball.

-Ever's intervention does save Lucius from a few nasty scrapes as the Blizzard rains down upon the two and everything around them.-

Lucius: I... I don't need your-

-Suddenly, Heracles!-

Lucius: -softly, but with feeling- ...Fuck.

-Shard wheels around, eyes widening behind her mask.-

Shard: Lack the means to kill this particular god. Time to make a retreat. Cryo?

-Cryokinesis whips up another cloud of ice and mist with hail, allowing Shard to dart forward and grab Lucius before dragging him back into the shadowy mists.-

Trans rights are human rights. JK Rowling preaches hate. If you sit at a table with five bigots and say nothing, there are now six bigots.

Admin D returns El Santo and Kane as he rides off on Omega.

"We'll talk about the ethics of what I did later. I need you to go here and drop me off before the others catch up."

He points to a place on his holomap of the base. Consequentlu it is where Lucius and Ever are.

GIVE ME YOUR FACE

Ever: Oh, you have got to be shitting—

-bagged-

-he says a number of things after that, but they're all muffled by the bag, which is good because rating-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Vee: -to the retreating Omega- <Yeah, NO SHIT>

Megan: N-no. Pippy, Vee, Bunker Bust–

Pippy: -suddenly exhausted- <Megan, Vee, no.>

Megan: ...

-she exhales and collapses to her knees-

-...-

Megan: -to Rose- ...thanks. For stepping in.

No mind to think. No will to break.

Iron Base

-Rose leers as Admin D and Omega run away.-

-And then her expression softens, and she turns toward Megan.-

Rose: ...No problem, Megan. I guess the cat's out of the bag now, huh?

-Nora's expression likewise softens from her intense battle-ready look to something more solemn.-

Nora: <Rose...>

-Pixie goes up to Megan, licking her face and offering Warm Doggo Support^TM-

Team iron base

Anubis: <sorry, we kinda just got here, so we haven't run into many people or mons. We did steal some soda from their vending machine though.>

-"Mor, attempting to stay awake as Homor carrys her, drinks a coke. She then starts vibrating from the caffeine"-

Mor:<...my face tingles>

-"As they follow the Durant, Honor notices a door with security on it"-

Honor: Hmm, hey metal bug thing (note: Homers never seen a Durant before), how about we take a look in there.

-"Honor points to the security room"-

Let's all have fun

Up rides Omega, "TARGET IN SIGHT! PREPARING TO NEUTRALIZE!"

Omega sticks his arms out, ready for D's command.

Alolan Seas, The Red Wings

Previa: WOO!

-Lightning starts to strike the ocean around the two ships. The pirates, being somewhat superstitious about the weather, look on in horror at the sudden maelstrom that is developing around them.-

Balthier: Blast it all.

Skies Over Alola

-The sky splits open.-

-A familiar, massive body falls from the sky in an impact course with one particular unnamed island.-

Laambo: {I RETURN, EARTHLINGS! AND I WILL SSSSSSSLAAAAAAAUGHTER YOU ALL!}

-He lands on top of the base.-

Team Iron Auxiliary Base

-The base lurches as the support struts underneath it fail spectacularly. The body of the base lands on the old igneous rock that was once magma in a volcanic shaft.-

-The base rings like the most base triangle you'd ever heard.-

???

-Rest.-

-Noise.-

-Sleep.-

-Noise.-

-Ignore.-

-Noise.-

*Bwoooooooooooooooom...*

-NOISE.-

-NOISE NOISE NOISE NOISE NOISE NOISE NOISE NOISE NOISE-

-   AWAKEN.   -

WHO IS DISTURBING MY ISLANDS?!

Megan: ...yeah.

-and Pixie comes up and licks her face. She giggles softly, worn out-

-Vee chuckles, worn out as well, then turns back to Rose, growing more serious-

Vee: <...I'm not so sure. Paula, you said? I'm pretty sure your...sister? Went by Paula. And she headed a, well, a "gang", and generally seemed more...less...less sad. Than you do.>

<And you were...distressed. At her mention. When we first met.>

<Is this a...a "claiming your sister's wrongs" sort of thing...? Frankly, I'm not sure what to make of this.>

-Pippy, meanwhile, gingerly fishes around in Megan's bag for a Revive and applies it to Pollen's ball-

No mind to think. No will to break.

"NONONO DON'T...neutralize..."

He sees that Ever and Lucius are gone.

"Too late." He says, pensively.

Sudden base rumble.

"We should leave :/."
