The Velvet Prison

Artoria sighs.

Artoria: <Not this again...>

Reversal Mountain

Archer: <I wonder...>

He fires the grenade arrow at the bigger throne, hoping to destroy it. Not expecting it to actually do anything, mind, just out of spite.

Rin fires at the glowy red bits.

Ruby gets ready to heal if necessary.

Cerulean PMC

Luciana: "No time like the present, I suppose? Especially if someone's life is in danger."

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

Cerulean Pokemon Center

-Lucius, who has never been the sharpest witticism in the book of after-dinner speeches, grins at Shishou.-

Lucius: Why thank you! I've always considered myself to be pretty fillable.

Maul: ~I think you mean "fallible".~

Lucius: Yeah, that's what I said. Also hi, Maul, pleasure as always.

-He nods at Luciana, then turns back to Winter.-

Lucius: I mean, might as well use the excuse to get some practice in. What do you mean by "esoteric", though?

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.

Reversal Mountain

Ann: ...Fuck.

Rabbid!Ann: <Bwah!>

-They fire-

Stormchaser

If she tries anything funny...

-To Loki-

That being?

Velvet Room

This place again...

Doc: -Looking around- <I can't hear Galen...>

Crochet: <We've got some new people with us, I think.>

Igor: Congratulations, inmates, on your latest heist, though your rehabilitation still has yet to be completed.

-To the two newest inmates-

As for you, Julius and Susan, I am Igor, and this is my Velvet Room. A place between dreams and reality, mind and matter.

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

CPMC

Winter: Mmm. Anything that involves opening up. Aura sense, telepathy. Constructs? Sure. Physical enhancement? You bet! Much of anything else? Dicey territory.

<"Shishou": Head too loud. Full of bunk.>

Winter: Yes, thank you, I'm well aware of your opinions on the subject, crusty.

<"Shishou": Hmmmmmmmph.>

Cerulean PMC

Shaun: "Uh...welcome. You were pretty cool too. With the bandage and the shield. Thanks for...not letting me bleed out."

-He coughs awkwardly.-

-Midna is enjoying herself◊.-

-Everyone looks at Igor and the twins like this.-

Reversal Mountain

-Isbrand glares at Neo-Alovye and draws her blade.-

Isbrand: "Come on!"

Isbrabbid: <BWAH!>

-Isbrand does a dramaic, Pheonix Wright-style point at the Glitch. Two drone turrets and a pair of gatling guns open fire.-

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Velvet Room

Looking at the shackles on his wrist, Colton rolled his eyes, standing up and jumping before he could get shocked but still getting shocked anyway.

He noticed that Mercury and Camazotz remained even more silent than usual, given their almost unspoken bond. No confusion, nothing. Must not have any sort of power here, he realized.

[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]

Mason: Ah, that was nothing, really. Can't, like... do anything but hide with it. Which, I guess, fits and all, but y'know.

-Awkward pause-

Mason: ...Sorry for getting you hurt like this. And for dragging you into my problem.

Flare blitz unsurprisingly burns, Silas shakes his metal arm as it glows a bit from the heat, <Ow! Ow! Hothothothothot!!>

After a bit of shaking it opens some panels and vents the heat in a blast, Silas thankful that was designed for the aura storm, but he looked right at Perdita and growled a bit.

~Ooo, got him angry.~

"They're in close, close combat!"

Silas balled both of his fists and let out a roar before firing fisiticuffs in a furious flash!

Silas looks around the jail cell, and grumbles, "I was hoping this place was just a dream..."

He stared at Igor and then the twins, "You two are easily on my shitlist... along with this entire Arceus forsaken acid sequence."

Reversal Mountain

-Pent shrugs and just continues snapping off shots-

You're not the first maniacal villain we've stopped and you're not gonna be the last. Maybe that says something about our ability to handle this yeah?

The Velvet Room

-For some reason he can't quite pinpoint, merely being in the Velvet Room unsettles Pent and he silently watches from his cell on the second floor-

-Susan however, is looking around and being... Well not confused but maybe a little frustrated-

Susan: <Wow okay. This is... I'm not sure what to think of the fact that we're all in jail now. Thanks for the welcome?>

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Cerulean PMC

Shaun: "You didn't drag me into it, or get me hurt. I chose to get involved, and I got myself stabbed. You didn't force me into anything."

-He grunts a bit as he adjusts his position, propping his body up a bit more.-

Shaun; "And...don't sell yourself short, anyways. I can't do the kind of stuff you can. And anything behind infusal or basic constructs ends up with me like...this."

-He half-heartedly gestures at the hospital room.-

Shaun: "Point is, it's not your fault. I'm glad to...help? I don't know if what I did really counts as helping. But you're safe. Did he hurt you at all?"

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Reversal Mountain

-The attacks don't seem to do much to Neo-Alovye, except the ones aimed at her markings-

-However she glows and the markings seem to vanish as she fires multiple Flamethrowers from her body at the group-

-Several Valkyries emerge and fire at the group-

Vermillion

-Perdita is knocked over by the Close Combat, but gets up and lunges at Silas with one of her own-

The Velvet Room

Julius: Wha- What is this place? Why are we all in a dungeon?

Tagg's Room

Loki: <Something something the J-Team has powerful warriors, hand them over or face the consequences? Is the gist of it.>

Contact Me!

Mason: ...I... right, sorry. He, uh, got me a couple of times before you showed up, but I managed to patch myself up well enough. It's you I'm more worried about.

-For a moment, eye contact is impossible for Mason.-

Mason: ...I went overboard with my abilities once, as a kid. It left me sick for literal years, and probably could have lasted my whole life if not for an actual, genuine divine miracle.

Cerulean City

Shaun: "Oh shit that's right you're like Ludmilla."

-He stares at his lap for a moment.-

Shaun: "You wanna...talk about it? There's probably a chair in here somewhere. Or you could just sit at the foot of the bed."

-He coughs.-

Shaun: "I'm bad at reading social cues so feel free to stop me at anytime."

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Velvet Room

Caroline: -zapping the bars of Silas, Susan's and Julius's cells.- QUIET INMATES!

-Ren can't see them, but he recognizes the voices of the new inmates.-

Ren: Still, thank you for the praise Igor.

Caroline: See Inmate I-A knows how to act!

Ren: But can you do the new ones a favor, and explain why we're locked up like this? It should answer a few questions and ease tension about the decor.

Caroline: And I take back what I just said.

Justine: Inmate I-A does have a point, Caroline.

-to Igor- Master, we shall go prepare for the ritual. Please call us if you need us.

-The twin Magnimites float out the rear exit of the room, and into the darkness beyond.-

Mason: Well, I... could give the short version I guess.

-He takes a seat in the chair.-

Mason: Long story short, I... did a really big bad forbidden-by-everything Obscura thing so I could escape from the Phantom Class, and was your typical homeschooled sickly child after that. And then Xerneas fixed that personally.

Velvet Room

Des is still on his cot, refusing to get up from it.

"Enough of the 'formalities'. Tell us who are next target is and send us on our way already."

GIVE ME YOUR FACE

Cerulean PMC

-Shaun mouths the words "forbidden-by-everything Obscura" then shakes his head.-

Shaun: "...that's rough, buddy."

-He bites his tongue and shskes his head again.-

Shaun: "Seriously though, that's terrible. But..at least you're better now."

-He chuckles.-

Shaun: "Sorry. I'm not good at these kinds of things when I'm not nervous and riding the aftereffects of painkillers."

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Reversal Mountain

Ann: -Ducks for cover before throwing some grenades at the Valkyries-

Stormchaser

-To Loki-

Yeah that's not happening, tell your master he can get stuffed.

Velvet Room

-To Julius and Susan-

Igor: This room, the chains, your clothing, it is all part of the rehabilitation. Now, Caroline and Justine will demonstrate something that will help you on your quest.

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

-The twins roll in two large guilatines with dark blades whose edges glow with blue light and frames made of wood stained blue. The emblem of the Velvet Room glows in blue energy on the front sides of the blades.-

Justine: As our master has said, in order to facilitate growth in the sub-personas you all possess and even create new ones, our master has authorized all inmates access to execution rituals.

Caroline: You all better be greatful! This is an extreme honor!

Aria: Excuse me!? Executions?!

Justine: You heard correctly, Inmate III-B.

Caroline: Since our newest inmates have yet to get sub-personas, what better way to demonstrate than by making them right here!

-Caroline jerks her left magnet and four demons held by spectral black chains are pulled into view by an unseen force.-

-Ren, Aria, and Oscar look on at the demons struggling on the floor: Jack Frost, Silky, Helios, and Maso.-

Elizabeth: -looking at Jack Frost- "No, don't do it."

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Velvet Room

-The Twins grab the Helios and the Silky and drag them behind the guillotines. Then throw blue cloths over them and bind them with gold ropes-

-The vauge shape of slender bodies with heads are locked into place, still struggling to escape.-

-The Twins look to Igor.-

Velvet Room

Crochet: -Looking at the blades- <Yeesh, those look nasty.>

You know I've been wondering if demons truly die when they're destroyed or not...

Igor: -To Caroline and Justine- Do it.

Luciana: "... That was an insult, Lucius."

She looks around idly.

"Well, if we have a method settled, I imagine we should get moving? Though, where to?"

Reversal Mountain

Archer: <A shame.>

He puts his bow away and takes out his swords, raising one and summoning a protect field around himself whilst charging at the Valkyries, hoping to close on one and use it as something of a shield.

Hopefully the boss would refrain from friendly fire out of pragmatism, if nothing else.

Rin: "Hiding the obvious weak spot's unfair!"

Ruby: <Bwah!>

The Velvet Prison

Artoria looks somewhat disgusted by the guillotines, but says nothing.

-Susan looks... Confused for the most part-

Susan: <Huh... That's peculiar...>

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

-The Twin nod at Igor and then to look up and the blades which shudder sinisterly before becoming motionless and...-

*WOOSH!* *   KERTHUNK   *

-The figures' heads are simultaneously cut off by the falling blades.-

-Red and black ichor oozes across the floor, before all of it pools in front of Susan's cell and floats up become energy that forms into a new demon.-

-A ragged Machoke-like demon in ragged clothing of a old-Unovan military uniform. The weight of wars hangs over him, the victories far more than the defeats.-

Tin Patriot: -Saluting Susan- Greetings! Reporting for a contract Miss! I am thou... Thou art I... I am the one who never came home, Tin Patriot!

-Tin Patriot form shrinks into the form of Susan's Thief mask, which appears on the food tray in her cell.-
