I picture Nana recounting her "happy memories of Papa" during the experiments performed on her at the facility. I also picture the Votum Party's GOOD characters shocked responses to her tale...[lol]

Not sure how the EVIL teamates would react, because Even Evil Has Standards.

Always check the manual, and yes that picture is REAL

First off, Happy Halloween, guys! I certainly hope that you've enjoyed yourselves tonight; personally, I enjoyed watching Corpse Bride and Coraline, though I'm still a major wimp and freaked out at appropriate times.

Secondly, Strat, when you said "Scott took Pit through the corridors", didn't you mean Sokka?

Me, I treated myself to the Evil Dead Trilogy, just like last year.

Well, Theta is officially creepy and saddening to me now. Heres why:

Hear that Creepy Child voice at 4:50? That's what happens to Theta.

Also, I was rewatching RVB episodes and realised that Theta is red and blue instead of just solely red.

I just watched the finale of Season 10 of RVB. And holy shit, it was amazing. So many twists, plots resolved and just genereal amazing moments. I just... wow.

And Roosterteeth's new show. Holy shit they're making an anime called RWBY, and one of the main characters has a SNIPER SHOTGUN DEATH-SCYTHE!

Admittedly I didn't make it too clear, but Zero's entered the training room where Flutter rush (I'm still unsure how to spell it) and Scott were sparring/fighting and spoken up.

June 18, 2012: Hazama, who is disgusted by the fact that there are so many liars in the world, and Fate are told by PIPBOY that, while there are no records actually confirming or denying the existence of other Wish-seeking crews, is confident that this is the first time that the recently-created Votum has been used for such a purpose.

November 8, 2012: A completely different group of individuals discover that the inverse of the above statement appears to be the truth, with the only differences between then and now consisting of one Wish fragment and a few new (or at least not seen earlier) people, one of which being an enigmatic Guest that has appeared in a training room that was certainly not 'recently created'.

Oh, unraveling this mystery is going to be fun.

Hmm... is our next challenge set, or is it a secret? tongue

Also, finding out a way to make a Scott Pilgrim challenge is a lot harder than you'd think. At least for me. Ideas anyone?

Well, there is that side-scrolling, beat-em-up video game (which, sadly, I've never actually played before) if you need an excuse as to why Scott can't just beat up some evil ex-boyfriends by himself. As for how to incorporate the Wish into the setting, as with how the Firebenders seemed to be using it to help develop tanks and airships, perhaps Gideon could find some way to 'level up' from it.

Did I mention before that I love the Scott Pilgrim series? Because I do.

#687: Nov 8th 2012 at 9:26:17 PM

[up] Didn't think about that. I could see that working, and the fact Nega Scott is a playable character makes it pretty cool. I'd have to go play it to find out the story, though I've probably got time to do so. Gideon with the power of a wish fragment? That'd be scary.

Also, didn't know that. Then I hope I'm not slaughtering Scott's character in the RP. tongue

Nice to know that I've been of help. And personally, I think your interpretation of Scott is well done; fascinating and funny to watch in addition to having a tragic side that makes his character complicated and developed.

On a similar note, if I ever had control of a BlazBlue arc, it would probably start out by splitting the party early on and meeting different main characters, giving each group separate objectives, sparking some fights between friends that will likely end in draws and cause the groups to combine their goals, and then ending with a confrontation with a Wish-enhanced Nu-13/Relius Clover (depending on which game the arc takes place during). Such an arc probably won't happen from quite some time, though, as every time I've pictured my Hazama coming face-to-kneecap with the original, it never ends well for the little guy.

[up] Thanks grin

Now, a Red Vs Blue arc would be interesting. It could take place in the Blood Gulch Chronicles for a bit of humour, or the later seasons for action and mystery. Or even the Freelancer storyline. I could make the Meta the boss, when all his powers are working.

Your next challenge will be mostly focused on interpretation, with perhaps the only battle being the boss battle. I have two ideas for this challenge: they're ready to go, and both will be challenges, just a question of what world will be a challenge first. Both are based around 80's movies about the 50's: except one is about a time machine and the other about a jazz-singing eating plant.

Just because it's based on a musical doesn't mean the characters will sing. But there will be songs.

Good. If that wasn't the case I might have had to take a bat to you.

You know, I've never actually seen that movie. I have the basic idea of what happens but the rest is a mystery. Oo Oo Oo Oh!

Also, Scott singing? I think the closest he ever got was rhyming with Matthew Patel, which he failed to do. It'd be fun finding ways to mangle any attempt at Scott singing. tongue

When I saw that I read it as Ski Free and instantly thought of everyone getting chased by that bloody yeti. [lol]

Also, what's Skid Row?

But yeah. So far in two RPs I've had my characters wind up being shipped purely by accident.

[up] Ha how so?

That was happening to my character in an RP before it closed. One show of gratitude and it was pretty much set in stone.
