Asimov Island, Bar

-Lucius goes rather red and grins at Levi.-

Lucius: I have no idea who you're supposed to be, but he sure looks handsome~

-He takes a beer from the crate before rather sheepishly looking between Levi and Ever.-

Lucius: Oh, uh... right, I should probably introduce you two. Ever, this is Levi, my boyfriend. Levi, this is Ever, the, er... the friend who might now be slightly-more-than-a-friend I mentioned earlier.

She raises an eyebrow at Levi.

"... Well."

She leans her head on Scarlette's shoulder.

Hajime: "...Well, this isn't good."

Rumba: <Hey, we can still take them!>

She shoots a Bubble Beam at the Lucario.

Hajime is startled as a Minior suddenly falls from the sky and stutters, his surprise clear even behind the mask.

Hajime: "Uh... hi... what just... you... You... here as part of the party or something?"

Tauros: <Well, could've just fallen from the sky or something.>

Asimov Halloween, Ama-zing Chase

Ama: ... Not ideal, but I can work with this.'

Ama makes a shoving motion downwards and the obscura wrap anchors to the ground.

Asimov Halloween, It Is A Mistery

Ama is a ways away, with Brynhilde and Sainte close behind. Hellebore and Alstroemeria are about 3/4 of the way there towards them.

Asimov Halloween, Awoo

"Like, the Mawile who worked at a magic store handed my Rockruff a scarf and left. And then I put the scarf on and now I look like this."

Marco takes the scarf on his head off and turns into a Rockruff. Then he puts it back on.

"So yeah. The Rockruff parts are like, attached to me too."

off the shits

-Scarlette blinks at Levi's sudden appearance.-

Scarlette: Uh, hi. Damn, didn't expect that Lucius could get two—

-And then all words are lost as Luciana leans her head on Scarlette's shoulder, earning a blush about as red as her name indicates.-

---

Mason: ...Huh. That's... huh. Wow.

-He just sorta looks at Marco's Rockruff-y features curiously.-

Mason: They can feel and everything?

Halloween Party - Outside

Oberon: <Treacherous rogue!>

-He gets backstapped and falls forward.-

Oberon: <Mayhaps it doth be the time for thy ultimate attack!>

Elizabeth: "Hone Claws."

-Oberon looks annoyed but rakes two Obscura claws together.-

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Asimov Island

Levi blinks at Lucius with a somewhat blank expression for a moment before taking a deep breath and clasping his hands over Lucius's.

Levi: Babe. Babe. The next time we're chillin' together at your place, I'm going to sit you down and we'll binge all four completed seasons of the modern JoJo's Bizarre Adventure anime adaptation. I might even bring over some of the tankobons as well. This is a highly important cultural touchstone that you need to be educated on.

Levi then turns his attention to Ever.

Levi: Oh! So you're the paramour that Lucy landed the slam dunk on! Great! Name's Levi, nice ta' meetcha!

Levi holds out his bad hand to Ever for a handshake. Ever may notice that 1) two of the finger holes where his pinkie and ring finger should be are empty and b) there is some rather unpleasant looking scarring all up his arm.

Still, it doesn't detract from Levi's cocky, handsome charm.

Silas stretches as he begins marching back to his Airship, his bed calling to him, Roxy and Harold right beside him, Harold to his right, Roxy to his left, Bishop behind them. He's still thinking about what Drakos literally portaled in to say that he was invited to the awards ceremony, seeing as he killed DeCross.

"You kill one Megalomaniac giant monkey head and suddenly people expect you to walk on water," he muttered.

Harold smirked, "Next up, parting the red sea."

Silas rolled his eyes as he stepped into the Oblivion Wing, making his way to his bedroom and collapsing onto his bed, Amber, Snakeye, Tae, and Oliver were already asleep off in the room. Silas grumbled and flipped himself over, "That was fun, exhausting, both mentally and physically, but fun."

"At least you're emoting more," Hacks responded, Silas nodded in response.

Roxy smiled, "Hey if you go to that Foxverse, I can take over looking after these guys!"

Silas gave it some thought, "Sure why not. Hacks already had his turn. Let someone else, plus Bishop can fly you guys around easily."

"Actually Captain," Bishop responded, "I'll be coming with you, I was assigned to you because of the Foxverse shenanigans after all."

Silas sighed, of course he was, "Better get a auto pilot program set up then."

Bishop nodded then Silas added, "Oh and send out a text to the J-Team tomorrow after breakfast, see who wants to join us beyond the obvious others for the Award Ceremony."

"Of course Captain."

Silas grumbled a bit, "Anything else we need to cover?"

Roxy shrugged, "Nah I think we're good, I'm gonna go take one of the 6 guest rooms."

Hacks nodded, "Same here really. You need to sleep. Goodnight."

Bishop drifted into the computer, and Silas passed out.

Daguerre leers closer, staring ominously.

Tommy: Well, yeah, I was about to ask that as well. I was present at the heist—my boss and I were brought in to report on the exhibit—and saw an outfit uncannily like that worn by one of the jewel thieves. You keep up with the news?

He gestured to Daguerre to fall back. It does seem to also beg the question whether Daguerre could even smell anything beside the obvious "they reek of alcohol".

Tommy: My associate Ivan and I have also spent a good portion of the previous weeks following leads to yet another possible antagonistic group. See, one of the members of Interpol had this altercation with what we thought was yet another masked criminal group. Judging from our witness accounts, it's something much worse. My associate does have a copy of our report and is looking for someone in PEFE or the J-Team to give it to. Interpol has been mum about most of it so we had a difficult time tracking down these people. One of them seemed a bit too obsessed with the Yonut stand.

From a distance, a blond roadie glowers at them menacingly.

-Lucius chuckles a little at Levi's obvious enthusiasm.-

Lucius: Fiiiiiine, if you insist. As long as you make sure to bring another crate of beer and leave some time for makeouts between episodes~

Levi smirks.

Levi: Aleikhem shalom~

He then turns to his boyfriend.

Levi: Oh! You think I would have a binge night of my favourite multimedia franchise ever and not be well stocked on the beer and junk food so greasy you get a heart attack from one bite? And that sloppy makeout sessions wouldn't be included? Oh you wound me, Lucius.

Levi laughs as he looks between Lucius and Ever, with periodic bouts of looking at himself.

Levi: -Slightly slackjawed- Hauh. Yannow, I'm noticing a trend here. Lucy.

Luciana: "But as I was saying before... Levi, was it? showed up, I decided to start the Kanto league challenge."

Asimov Party - Chase

Gloire, finding herself anchored to the ground, reflexively goes incorporeal, dropping Brynhilde.

Brynhilde, not expecting this but still determined to make the most of it, drops into a combat roll (made slightly more difficult by the fact that she's wearing a gown), using her forward momentum to stand up into a dead sprint, whilst also avoid falling on her face from the momentum.

She glances behind her at the two foxmons, sending out Signi and Sigmund.

Signi: <Oh, bother. Something to do.>

Sigmund: <You will not pass, foxes.>

Signi's snow warning activated! It started to hail!

Muddy: <No rift activity, you said, we'd have smooth sailing, you said.>

-Parrying a Glitchy tendril with an Aura cutlass-

Look, I did say yet, didn't I?

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

Kai: Yeah, I saw the report. And I have ties to some of the party fighting to defend the museum, as well — Minstrel, the man masked as a museum moderator in preparation to protect the premises from purloiners, is a particularly personal pal of mine. And also prone to provoking the application of alliteration and consonance into otherwise conventional conversation.

-They cough a bit, waving dismissively.-

Kai: That's a tangent. Back on topic. According to some of the reports, the "Rogue" of the heist team never actually made any efforts to steal anything, and they weren't even out in the open except to rescue Whiptail from what would have been a gruesome death by a thirty foot fall. Which... I couldn't help but find, I suppose, somewhat heroic? Romantic, even.

-They shrug-

Kai: The whole anti-hero vibe they gave off inspired me showing up here in their outfit, I guess. Besides, I'm a sucker for purple.

-Upon the mention of "something much worse", Kai frowns.-

Kai: What was this "masked group" like? If need be, I can carry the report forward.

Tommy: Whoa, that's what they're calling themselves now? I mean, I'm probably not the one to judge since I've covered masked hoohaws with even lamer names, but come on!

Beat.

Tommy: Well, the gist of it is that they popped up, assaulted Detective Shun and kidnapped one of his superhero operatives. We assumed, initially, that they were some sort of supervillain organization. Yet another overblown overcompensating group of idiot villains led by some gangster who go around saying "prepare for trouble, we're team whatsername so surrender or feel our wrath." Geez, you'd think having to deal with ridiculous hams like Aeroraptor or comically inept doofuses like that rich kid and that domineering redhead is bad enough. Really, I sometimes pity police and superheroes who have to deal with that BS every time. I mean, is showboating really necessary?

Tommy attempts to catch his breath. Daguerre leans over, trying to look at the details. While the jury was out on whether he can even detect the smell, the appearance of that costume was undeniable.

Eyesight is the strong suit of birds, after all.

Tommy: Part of the initial reports was that they were using above-the-baseline technology not currently known to be mainstream. They claimed to be from a time traveling organization of some sort. And I say "claimed" because otherwise nobody would believe me if I didn't put that in.

Daguerre: <Why did I even bother to think I could sniff them out when just looking at them was all I nee—stupid bad lighting.>

Tommy: Whoa there, Daguerre.

Angela, A Hospital, Late-afternoon on the 31st

-It had been an exhausting day, wandering around the children's ward handing out candy and talking quietly all done up in her stage costume had tired out the poor singer star human-bunny, enough that she needed to find a seat in the hall. It was some good karma, doing something for charity beyond mere funding, but the effort had her feeling drained and at the ends of her empathy-

This could of been their last Halloween, hell some might not even make it through to-

???: A drink, miss?

-Susan was roused from her dark contemplation by the offer. Taking a moment to recenter she looked up and managed a forced smile at the scruffy and ordinary man who had approached with a bottle of water, the seal already popped-

Susan: Thank you..?

???: It's no problem miss Eary.

Susan: Well I'd like your name so I can thank you properly.

Jerry West: We have met before... It's me, Jerry. ... You forgot didn't you..?

Susan: Oh, give me a moment and I'll remember...

-As Susan took the bottle of water gingerly and tightened the cap, a bulky and athletic man in a red and black wrestling outfit stepped out of one of the wards and had stopped in the doorway to watch-

Susan: Right yeah, Jerry! What're you doing here?

-She remembered! She-... Jerry's face faulted for a moment as his mind tried to outpace his mouth-

Jerry West: My s-sister has a condition... This hospital had the only s-specialist available.

-Phew, flawless-
-Susan was immediately suspicious-

Susan: Well then. Have some candy and relax, I gotta get back to making some little wishes come true.

-With all the grace that she could muster, Susan tried to stand up... Jerry was in the way-

Jerry West: Y-you should have a drink, easy to get dehydrated in hospitals.

-The large and imposing man standing in the doorway made a guttural cough and wandered over-

Luke Van Luke: Step off lad, give the lady some space.

Susan: Yeah I gotta be somewhere.

-Jerry froze up and stiffly stepped aside once he realized who gave the intimidating command-

Susan: Thank you.

Luke Van Luke: Hey, gotta watch out for people.

-With the scruffy and ordinary man slipping away down the corridor at a just-slightly-above-casual pace, Susan picked the opposite direction and started walking. At the first opportunity she dumped the bottle, still entirely full and tightly capped, into a wastebin-

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

-Kai seems to sober up slightly-

-They're still kinda inebriated, mind, they just don't look the part at the moment.-

Kai: ...Time travelers. Pardon me for asking, but which superhero operative got kidnapped?

---

Scarlette: Oh, nice. After me and Rose's thing, I think I'm gonna pass on any further gym challenges, Alola was just a sort of "finally get out and do something and start handling myself after being cooped up for months" thing.

-Lucius grins at Levi.-

Lucius: Sounds like a date, then~

-His grin then fades as he looks between Levi and Ever, noticing Levi's expression.-

Lucius: ...Oh no. No no no. Don't you start going on about "type" too. I keep saying, just because you're both blue, Jewish, super pretty and a little bit fae, that doesn't mean... okay, maybe they might've been onto something. Maybe.

Levi: Love. Darling. Honey. Habibi. Motek. Listen to yourself. You have a type. And that type is blue.

Levi laughs as he cracks open a beer.

Stylus and Harold tilt their heads at the sign, "Something's up..."

<Totally...>

"We're going in there?"

<Absolutely. You made me turn into this form for this stuff. We're going.>

Harold opened the door and Stylus marched in, Harold right behind him.

The Shaunji proceeded to double jump right over Shaun and started throwing what appeared to be ninja stars right at him, right from its forearm, It proceeded to just say Genji lines on repeat before darting out of the way.

The Parody had taken the form of Ike, it proceeded to block the incoming attack and swung its sword wide.

The Parody has evolved into a full on Alakazam, and sprouted extra limbs, the gun parodies it had shifted into swords, it let out a raspy laugh and proceeded to start swinging at Lyra.

The Symmetra just stood there, and flickered more, as if waiting for something, seems not all of the pen Parodies were exactly stable. It quickly set about just using the beam gun, as if indecisive about how to go about attacking.

The Parody!Pent begun firing the gasters, its aim was off, seems what the Pen had said, it had fought back attempting to make this a fight they could win.

Arthur stared at his parody, it flickered and moved a bit, glitching on the first few steps and could barely stand. Arthur sighed, this should be easy enough to deal with.

The sound of a inhuman roar coming from his Parody changed that, it began to shift and mutate, becoming much larger, the left arm becoming mechanical as horns grew. Arthur stared in horror as the thing became a large demon, the helmet became horns, it let out one last roar, raised its left arm, and opened fire.

Arthur dodged out of the way as the Cyberdemon roared again, the room shook and minor alterations took place, he recalled his mons, no need to get them wrapped up in this nonsense.

"WHY DID I AGREE TO THIS?!" He asked himself dodging rocket fire.

Silas sat in the gallery eating some breakfast, Roxy and Harold walked in from their rooms, having opted for the outfits the scarf had granted them, they sat down and Silas stared, "You're not gonna take the reversal candy?"

"Not yet," Roxy responded, "Besides if I'm filling in wouldn't make much sense for me to do so."

Harold nodded, "And I just like having non digitgrade legs, though I find the lack of a tail weird."

Silas smirked a bit, "I find having a tail weird."

Snakeye laughed, <Y'all find a lotta things weird. So, whats this about Ribbon filling in?>

"Well the Foxverse called and they want me back, apparently there is a award ceremony and honestly I want to go."

Tae rolled his eyes, <Of course, the universe where you're a mercenary captain and ace pilot would be attractive.>

Amber shrugged, <I find it neat, I'm glad he's got something he's interested in. And hey Ribbon could totally run this outfit.>

Roxy smiled and stuck her tongue out at Tae, who sighed and went back to his breakfast.

Silas shrugged a bit, "Hacks had his turn and nobody else has volunteered. Bishop will be joining me in the Foxverse and Oliver is still young."

Oliver landed on Silas's head and ruffled his feathers a bit, <I could lead if I want to.>

Harold smirked, "Let me guess, you just don't want to."

Oliver let out a "hmph" and flew off of Silas's head, landing back on the couch.

-Lucius, now very red from a combination of drinking and embarrassment, looks up indignantly at Levi.-

Lucius: I am not! I am neither adorable nor flustered, I am a very suave and charming individual who's always in control of the situation.

-He throws his arm around Ever.-

Lucius: See? Ever has the right of it. I'm not so shallow as to fall for someone simply because of their colour scheme. Now if they're super pretty, on the other hand, that's a perfectly valid reason to be smitten.
