"Yeah," answers Xion with a nod.
"Now, I should probably get something to make up for... well, demolishing you."
Beerus looks at the wind and narrows his eyes. "Alright, who is it this time?"
Dedede stands there in utter shock for a few seconds.
Then he gives Noah a steely glare before leaping through the ceiling to avoid the crush, and when he comes back down he's equipped with his Masked Dedede mask and hammer.
"You're the one who'll die for that."
He leaps up and tries to slam down on Noah with a Super Dedede Jump that sends a shockwave over the ground on landing!
Pam points at Solomon, seemingly about to do something...

"He's gearing up for war."
Divine Burden
She's doing alright, I was about to meet up with her. No luck in our quest yet though.
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.
"Mind if I tag along, then? I've been meaning to see her again for a while now," Pietro replies. "And if you guys need me and Wanda to help find these Stones, don't be a stranger. If there's anything we can do to help fix what Thanos did your universe, even if it's just a little thing, we're not gonna let it slip past us."
"Ugh.", he mock-pouts. "I never thought I'd find a second person who could beat me this badly at arm wrestling."
He then smirks.
"Alright, back at my home, the loser has to do one thing the winner tells them to. You wanna go by that? If so... well, I guess I'm at your mercy."

"In that case..." Xion pretends to think about it before declaring, "buy me one of those."
She points to a cake pop behind the cafe's display.
"He's gearing up for war."
Divine Burden
Sure. Just follow my flight 'til I land, ok?
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.
Pietro nods.
"I'll be right behind ya."
He glances at the display.
"Really? Things are free around these parts... at least as far as I know. But alright."
He walks over to the display, putting his empty glass on the counter as he goes, and takes one of the cake pops, after which he brings it back to Xion.
"You sure you want this to count as your one thing?", he asks, though still hands her the cake pop. "Since I didn't even have to pay for it, it's up to you if this counts or not."

"Eh, I thought leaving payment was a nice courtesy, at least. If it disappears, it had to have gone somewhere, right?"
"INDEED!" bellows Uncle Pennybags' jacked older brother
◊ as he literally emerges from the wall behind the counter, as if noclipping.
He reaches out a hand to Ninten, silently asking for payment.
Xion covers her mouth and stifles a giggle-snort.
"He's gearing up for war."
Divine Burden
Iron Man flies away. Whheeeeeeeeeee!
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.
Cracking his neck, Pietro proceeds to dash after Iron Man.
Ninten jumps upon Uncle Pennybags' jacked older brother's loud, boisterous and somewhat supernatural appearance. Luckily he's not holding that cake pop anymore, or it would've fallen on the ground.
Ninten turns around to look, and is, understandably, a bit intimidated by the man's buff figure.
Then he notices what the man wants.
"F-for real?", he asks, looking bummed, but not exactly eager to potentially anger this guy by saying no. He digs through his pockets for a moment.
"'fcourse this place doesn't have an ATM machine.", he mutters to himself. He then finds some cash. It's not that much, but he offers it to the man anyway.
"Is... this enough?", he asks with a sheepish, slightly nervous smile.

He stands there silently for several seconds.
"Yes!" He delicately accepts the payment with a hand that looks like it could crush a human skull as easily as a grape. "They're not exactly expensive, but I need all the funds I can get for my neverending quest for JUSTICE!"
Xion is no longer able to contain her laughter. It's all just such an... extraordinary way of discussing a simple topic. "S-so, we're even n-now... right?" she asks between bursts of giggling.
"He's gearing up for war."
Those few seconds are so nerve-wracking it's a miracle Ninten doesn't just faint. It's not until Xion starts laughing that he snaps back to his senses.
"I-I, uh, wish you luck with your quest.", he meekly says before walking back to his chair and sitting down, looking comically unamused.
"Yeah, sure. At least this wasn't as embarrassing as the most recent thing my friend Teddy made me do after he beat me."

Mr. Moneyfists flexes, then disappears with the sound of coins scattering onto the floor (though no coins are actually left behind).
"I don't need to hear about it," Xion says to try and reassure Ninten as she stuffs the entire cake pop in her mouth.

"He's gearing up for war."
"... well, to be fair, I guess it was also pretty funny, looking back on it. But if you want no deets...", he says, after which he leans back.
"... wait hold on, does this mean I'm a thief for not having paid any other time I got something to eat or drink in this world?", he asks, as if suddenly having realized it.

"Nouhg, nough, I'm shure you're gud."
Xion takes the pop out of her mouth and just bites off a piece of it. "If nobody was there to pay, there was no sense in paying. It's just if you want things of exceptional quality, you'll have to find the shops that are being actively run by people... like that guy... and those require payment."

"He's gearing up for war."
"Ah. I guess that makes sense. Good thing I had some cash on me.", Ninten says. "..."
Then he speaks in a hushed voice.
"Next time I'm gonna try to find a place with someone who doesn't look like he could pop my head with a single grab though."

"I... think he's a superhero," Xion answers in a similarly hushed voice. "Certainly has that sort of vibe. So unless you're a bad guy, well..."
She trails off there, munching on the cake pop.
"He's gearing up for war."
"A bad guy? No way, my friends and I saved the world once.", he says rather proudly, a bit too proudly to remember he was talking with a shushed voice. "And I've been helping in here as well."

"Oh, you have? That's great."
"Say, one more thing..." Xion ponders.
"Where do you know Sora from?"
"He's gearing up for war."
"From in this world. We met here once, three years ago. ... Well, three years for me, I don't know how long it's been for him. Time flows weirdly between worlds.", Ninten says.

"Huh. That's... quite the span of time." Xion finishes her pop and tosses the stick into a trash bin.
"I'm gonna split. See ya again sometime."
"He's gearing up for war."
"Alright, see you around.", Ninten says, getting up from his chair, smiling.
"Thanks for hanging out with me. It was really fun~"

Whiterun
Jedah and Geras back into the closing portal, leaving Beerus alone with his thoughts...
For all of 5 seconds.
Wind whips and bellows, surrounding the area as to herald someone else's arrival.
Space Fortress Gravitas
The Abyssals walk through a shadow portal, kneeling down as the portal closes behind them.
Dedede Arena
Noah smirks, morphing her mouth into an evil smile before laughing.
Noah: "Look at you! You managed to catch on rather quickly! It seems you're smarter than I gave you credit for!"
She summons two walls of earth, and pushes them together, trying to crush Dedede.
Noah: "I suppose I'll let you in on a secret before you die: Using the powers of the Phantom Gate, I sucked the very power out of your dear godly friend!"
Whiterun Hold
False Bowser rushes in and claws twice at Black Bandicoot, who manages to avoid the attacks. False Solomon managed to get a meaty hit on the mech though, which staggers it.
Negative San Fansokyo
Deep in Negative space, worlds are separated, yet merged. In the urban jungle of San Fransokyo, only the petals retain their color.
SM: "What are you doing here, of all places?"
Suicide Mouse talks to an oddly familiar figure. Tall, lanky, and dolled up like a clown, the being stands with his back to SM about 20 meters ahead of him.
???: "I could ask you the same thing. After all, aren't you supposed to be dead?"
SM: "I found my own way out. No thanks to you, or your band of heretics."
The figure stands around, his colors washing out to whites, grays, and blacks. However, his face reveals why he's so familiar.
Donald McDonald turns to face SM, smiling a devilish grin.
Donald: "You are the heretic, you traitor!"
The duo rush at each other, the scene fading to black...
Whiterun Past
Vegito: "As are you!"
Vegito dashes up and meets Kakarotto with a punch of his own, their fists clashing.
