Kubi jumps over the lightning and shoots another dark orb at the Lunatic Cultist.


Majima makes a small 'go ahead' gesture. "Not gonna make another shot?"

Phew ! What is it with lightning and these guys ?! says Dante, avoiding it a bit. He does get chocked though, and get blown backward, harshly landing on his back.

Feel free to do another. she says, clapping a little.

"Heh, who said I wasn't going to?"

GE!Thor retrieves his ball, takes a moment to aim, and throws it down the lane, successfully picking up the spare.

The Lunatic Cultist quickly moves up and begins flying out of the hallway, afterimages of him trailing behind. He then creates multiple orbs of lightning that start to shoot at them. Survivor dodges the lightninh and jumps high in the air, trying to hit the Cultist. Unfortunately he dodges it and throws another ball of lightning in his face, but Survivor cuts it in half before it can hit him.

Majima flashes his pearly whites as he steps up after Thor. With a Mad Dog Special, he gets...

a 7/10 split. OOF.


Kubi gets hit by a lightning ball, knocking the Copy Ability out of him. He starts running around in a panic.

Dante cut a ball of lightning in half and fire away with his two guns, leaping in the air via a demonic sigil of some sort. He's accurate and his barrage of special bullet is endless, fueled by his demonic power.

Sarah focus for real and get a strike, since she went for a flashy yet "simple" solution !

Muhahaha !

"Now, now, Sarah, it's merely a game! Let's try to avoid getting overly competitive!"

Admittedly somewhat weirded out by the sight of Sarah acting different from the calm and mature woman he knew best, GE!Thor proceeds to more or less hurl his ball down the lane as if it was Mjolnir, netting him a strike.

Survivor stares at Kirby running around. He doesn't know why he's doing it though. Survivor throws some more beenades at the Cultist.

The Cultist destroys the beenades, but also gets hit by the bullets. His cloak gets some holes, but there doesn't seem to be anything under it, only blackness. The Cultist would start to shoot homing fireballs. If they missed they would start to follow their target. Survivor blocks one of them but the other explodes in his face.

Kubi raises his guard and takes chip damage from the fireballs.


Majima follows suit with a strike of his own.

It's always a bit funnier when everyone's trying their hardest. she says, winding up her strike, and being pretty careful with it. She launch and only two quills remain standing.

Dante dodge the fireballs and observe as they begin to home in. He claps his hands and make a dash for the cultist, with the blaze trailing behind him.

The Lunatic Cultist sees this, and a magic circle appears around him, creating 4 other Lunatic Cultists. They stand in the air in a line, 1 by 1. They all start attacking Dante with fireballs.

"Ha ha! Now, which one is the real one? Choose the wrong one, and you're in for a surprise~"

He begins lauging maniaclly again. Survivor tries to attack one of them, distracting them from attacking Dante and making them start to attack him. He dashes to the side, and thinks of his next plan. He looks at Kirby, then he remembers when he sucked up the laser and got that power. He frantically looked for sonething he can throw at him, but only finds a sickle.

"Oh well."

He throws it at him, not even knowing whether it will work or not. After he has thrown it, he attacks one of the Cultists with a sword combo. It hits the correct one, and he goes backwards, flipping. Then he starts scrambling himself with the other Cultists.

"I've known you for so many years, yet your behavior still manages to confound me at times..."

GE!Thor rolls his ball once again, only to unfortunately wind up with a 7-10 split.

Kubi inhales the sickle, becoming FARMER Kubi.

The Kirby gains a straw hat over its head.

He starts throwing a barrage of sickles with strange boomerang-like trajectories. Each one arcs sideways in its path towards a different Lunatic Cultist.


Majima points at Thor and laughs.

At the borders of Primordia and NLA, Lust is talking to Greed and a not-too-amused-looking Pride.

   "So I believe this is the best course of action to take."   , Lust says. Greed leans against the wall and shrugs.

   "Can't disagree with you there."   

   "Hmph."   , Pride groans. Greed glances at him with evil amusement.

   "What's wrong with you, big bro?"   , he mockingly asks.    "Won't you 'pride' yourself for assisting in freeing the others? I'm sure Father will be very 'proud' of you."   

Pride shoots him an angered look, after which Greed starts laughing.

   "The only reason you can laugh at me without fear is because, for whatever reason, you two kept your bodies while I turned into a Spirit."   

   "I won't deny that."   , Greed grins.    "But I'm gonna abuse the hell out of it."   

   "We'll see who laughs when I have my body back."   

   "And probably Selim too."   

   "Agh, don't remind me. With my luck right now, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the price to pay."   

He grins darkly before turning around.

   "I can only hope that he's just gone forever."   , he says, his eyes darkening, but his grin also fading, and having turned around to hide this to not give those two any stupid ideas that he might actually miss the little nuisance. Which he doesn't. Not at all. He likes it being quiet in his head again, save for the torrent of screaming souls of course, just like the old days. He'd be happy if Galeem's attack just outright killed Selim.

That's what he tells himself, and he's never lied to himself before. So why would he now?

Greed and Lust share a glance between one another. The three of them had come from the same essence, so Greed and Lust have a slight feeling that Pride isn't entirely truthful with his words. They don't try to delve further into it though. His issues are his own to figure out.

Fallshorn Isle, Primordia

Omega was, in a word, disappointed. He hadn't managed to block a single bolt, and now Rbade was looking rather toasty. Recalling his 「Stand」, he flared up his staff, jumped forward, and made a wide swing at Lup.

Taako, satisfied with the extra-toasty state of Rey, turned his attention back to the battle at hand, and fired off a ray of frost, missing the main mass of the moving target that Omega had made himself into, but striking him in the hand instead. The reduced speed and sudden impacted threw off the timing of his strike, and Lup took advantage of this by trying to throw Omega into Rbade. Omega, understandably, was upset by this.

Dylan presumably did something, but we will have to come back to him at some point. By that, I mean please post your prior action and your current action next time you post, please. I'd very much like to still include you in this.

Stage Morph

During a lull in the combat, Taako looked over, and noticed the sudden arrival of Kulve Taroth. Lumasi sent an image of the scene to Ansar, causing Taako and Lup to both focus on the dragon.

   "Ah, another subject, come to follow a true monarch?"    Lup/Ansar said, keeping her attention on the SI Gang.


Meanwhile...

Time for more character updates! The scene with Nyr, Thranix, Megan, and Iraaxos is gonna be in the past, methinks, as I would like to continue that scene, but I would also like to get their usage back — and I need Iraaxos, specifically, to be free for a thing.

Fateless stomped across the volcanic plains of Cauldros, looking for rare materials with which he might be able to manufacture some new kind of ammunition or armoring.

Iraaxos, thoroughly satisfied with the events from earlier and the chaos he had caused, slipped out of NLA and contacted one of his cultists, who then ran off and contacted others. Megan attempted to pursue the draconid, but Thranix and Nyr held her back, reminding her that such an event would be suicidal.

Rho, the ever-unfortunate conjurer, was currently pinned underneath a tree in Noctilum. How he got there is anyone's guess, but he probably doesn't want to talk about it. He'll probably be fine, to be honest.

Tiamat was attempting to run as much divination magic as her limited mana pool could manage to support the SI Gang, but without a real way of communicating with them at the moment, she was of limited use.

Takumi, Camilla and Peri are sitting on a bench in NLA, all observing Samsara and her sign.

Alright, team-building exercise !

ROYAL GUARD ! he says, timing his attacks so as to block the fireballs right as they're upon him. It allows him to wade through them, since they're a bit distracted, and he attempts to reach the cultists... only to jump !

Trickster ! he yells forth, teleporting behind the cultists to try to get them struck by their own fireballs.

Sarah points at Majima.

Hey, let's see how well you do, now !

GE!Thor pointedly ignores Majima's laughter, shaking his head.

"Are we actually going to finish this bloody game, or simply waste our breath on needless taunts and challenges?"


Border of Primordia and NLA

BE!Pietro stands alongside Lust and Greed as the two converse with Pride, having mostly recovered from the injuries he sustained in his toss-up with the then-puppetized Lust.

"Greed, Pride, you've been wandering around this place for a while now. Did either of you notice Father, girly Sloth, kid Wrath, or the other Homunculi before Lust and I bumped into you?"

All 5 cultists get hit by the sickles. The one in the middle was the real one. The real one gets hit, gaining a gash on its robe and laughs maniacly as the other 4 release giant ghost dragons that fly toward Kubi.

These are very strong dragons, and they move incredibly quickly, trying to ram him all at once. The real cultist gets hit by his own fireball, and his coat catches on fire. Survivor uses the chance to throw a storm of Beenades at the Cultist, which succeed, stinging him all over and doing good damage. All the damage causes him to go to the second phase.

Rey switches guns and procures a grenade launcher, firing it at Taako.


Majima stifles his laughter and proceeds to get a spare.


Kubi dodges the first dragon, but the next three charge right through him, blowing him down. He quickly inhales the Copy Essence that was knocked out of him and re-acquires the Farmer ability.

   "Not a sight of 'em."   , Greed says to BE!Pietro.    "That Dark realm is tricky to navigate, and there's parts where we can't get further, so we aren't able to explore everywhere yet."   

Pride turns back around.

   "No luck on my end either. And in this state I can't spread out my shadows to look over greater distances. This would be so much easier if we could just find Gluttony. He would be able to sniff them out easily."   

   "Until we do find any of them, we'll have to do with what we have."   

She glances up at the faraway ship of Thanos.

   "... should we go ask if our makeshift leader has seen something?"   

Greed doesn't look too sure, and Pride huffs.

   "We don't need his help."   , he just says, not elaborating, so it's probably because of his pride again.

The fun is in the banter, Thor. she assures, closely spectating Majima and folding her arms.

The lunatic cultists begin to laugh, all in sync with eachother. They send out shadowflame orbs, which flew to the whole party. Survivor dodges them, and shoots a Terra Blade Projectile. It hits, creating another gash. By now the Lunatic Cultist was low on health, and becoming frantic. He begins to shoot contstant lightning, whilt the clones back him up with the homing fire balls.

"That depends entirely on one's definition of fun, Sarah," GE!Thor replies, watching as well.


"I heard from a friend of mine that Thanos is kind of a condescending asshole who treats his temporary 'allies' like dirt," BE!Pietro answers Lust. "And the last thing I need right now is some giant purple... shaved gorilla talking down to me while he strokes his own gigantic ego. But I've freed you all from brainwashing and held up my end of a certain bargain, so finding/freeing the others from Galeem and Dharkon is probably just the next logical step. All we need is a plan to actually get there..."
