The New Yorkers
The Maxx looked to the web-slinget with palpable confusion.
"...so what do you do?" But as the Rhino charged forward, he groveled, childishly pouting as he kicked a piece of asphalt away, before his eyes widened. What if...
"Spider Boy... swing me at him!"
He rolled up into a ball, spiked claws out and digging into the ground.
"You seem stronger than you look, so show it to me."
The Great Ezcape
Little Guy panicked seeing the two Gundams beginning to combat one another, and as he looked to Delta-R there was a confusion in his heart on how to deal with this. He was still young after all.
That's when The Medicine Vendor rushed down Little Guy's spine. Ears low, ans teeth beared, his voice sounded a tad harsh,
"Don't worry... hold them off. She's mine."
Little Guy huffed and though limping, would charge forward, grabbing another quintesson knocked cold to strike into his opponent.
Deux would feel someone's presence behind her, and very swiftly did she find the Medicine Vendor applying a strong kick to her lower back, knocking off her pedestal. She wouldook up yo dee him staring down, fox ears raised where his pounted ears had been, fox tail slowly swaying behind him. Though he still wore a faint smile, palpable anger was present.
"Leave... I won't tolerate anymore people harming Ez. Especially, from people like you."

AwawaMission: Defeat the Giant Monster
Kong howls as he gets bitten and flung at Croque like a rock. However, thanks to his speed boost from the Regent, he manages to twist and stop himself short of a collision, digging his axe into the ground to slide to a halt, cutting a gash into the terrain.
Ghidorah's beams take Malzeno out of the sky. He conveniently lands near Ghidorah's legs, and as he recovers, he tries to shank its ankles.
Godzilla decides to return the favor for Ghidorah's earlier blast, beginning to charge up his juicy hot-pink Atomic Breath...
UTOPIA Post Part 2
Apex Batman
Seven is still clinging to Apex Batman. He has bruises and tire marks all over from getting run over by the Batmobile along with him, and he might have a few teeth knocked out, but he maintains the Solid-as-Gold Seven Day Lock to restrain the foe's attacks.
"Heh...might as well give up now, bozo!"
Ainz lets out an audible sigh, standing back to avoid accidentally hitting Seven with a sword attack meant for Batman. "He's going to get himself killed."

Godwyn the Golden
Young Sephiroth gestures to Law, N, and Stark, using his shiny metal wing to get their attention.
"If he attacks the girl again, you" Law "swap my position with her. And if I can then keep up with him for any amount of time, you" N and Stark "pressure him with projectiles from a distance."
Shinryu seems to know what Godwyn is about to do before it happens, quickly shooting back up into the sky to avoid the hologram that would have otherwise battered his face. He weaves around the light and lightning striking near him, gathers up corrupted aether in his body, then casts Diamond Dust, making an explosion of ice centered on Godwyn that creates massive protruding ice crystals. It also covers the ground in slippery ice, with the purpose of making Godwyn slide uncontrollably if he moves, or potentially even slip and fall if he tries to jump.

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."UTOPIA - DEICIDE
The Godbuster brimmed with cosmic power made manifest. It was perhaps the one thing about it that would not change - that needed no prodding from Miquella to work, merely the use of the Absolute Solver to bypass these pesky keys. It was a gun. Its purpose was to harm. And it needed no convincing or charming to do exactly that. In a complicated world Miquella sought to simplify, it was exactly what he needed.
The cockroach-like weapon saw its hills-like quills glow and retract in its body, smoothing up its surface as the weapon gathered its power, said glow disappearing as more and more of its quills vanished. And when it finally came online, brimming with power, the massive creature of a gun seemed to almost struggle to contain the endless energy it was about to unleash. "Almost" being key, for it held on by way of stabbing its long claws into the world, stabilizing itself as it frothed at the mouth, its "face" peeling backwards to reveal a comparatively simple barrel, ooze-like substance dripping from its "mask" as it did so, like lips being pulled back to reveal a monstrous jaw.
'O Fate. The decider of everything. I have no need for you in my Utopia - the course of existence is mine to decide. Rest now.
There was no hesitation nor doubt - Miquella was not moved by "Ninten". He had discarded his doubts for a reason - every course of action he took was decisive. And as such, there was not even an instant of hesitation. It a child had to die for Fate to die, so be it. And at the final instant, the Godbuster went quiet and all the energy within it seemingly vanished, leaving only a long, dark aberration in existence.
There was no beam or anything of the sort that could be called an attack. There was nothing about this blast that hinted that it was something that could be understood, comprehended, blocked or dodged so easily. A blast of pure light escaped from the barrel of the Godbuster, with more than enough power to completly obliterate Aspects, Divine Guardians or anything of its ilk. The Godbuster fed into the power of every universe it drained, giving itself the properties of those universes and granting it the ability to bypass everything that could otherwise imperil it. Space, time, thoughts, matters, memories, all were annihilated before the might of something that erased everything, and that could be seen from the Arena doing that, with the world in front of the Godbuster simply ceasing to be.
It was the ultimate weapon of UTOPIA - the means by which Stark and Batman sought to earn freedom from the capricious heavens that plagued the Earth. And it proved every bit worth of the money and time that went into constructing it as it delivered an impact that travelled far beyond the world of UTOPIA alone and smashed into everything besides it. Once again though, it was no mere beam. What was fired was indescriptible - it was something that ignored time and distance and death and all forms of way to resist it.
Some random world away
"That can't be..." Despite seeing it with his own eyes, Golroana trembled in disbelief. "The land of traces... The infinite world created by the gods..." He mumbled in a trance.
Anos Voldigoad, who merely by releasing his destructive power and walked seven footsteps had annihilated all that was in that land, smirked before his hapless "foe". "Not even the land that could record seven hundred millions years of traces could withstand seven of my footsteps, it seems?" And then Anos's face became blank.
"Oh FU-" And the Godbuster's far-off attack engulfed him, flaying him alive and leaving Anos only two seconds to scream in hapless terrors and fear as the various powers that made him beyond death failed to keep him from being utterly disintegrated, along with Golroana, along with the entire world.
Gate of Utopia
Gojo and Sion blinked as destruction incarnated was unleashed. And the Godbuster quivered, energy making its entire body shake and twist as saliva fell from its cannon. It shook its head and then turned towards the Divine Guardians that were heading the way of UTOPIA - it had no need to destroy the Arena. Indeed, it meant for its next attack to be smaller in scope, as to focus the power more efficiently.
But as it detected danger heading its way, in the forms of a line of dissident thoughts, the weapon turned towards the Divine Guardians, light building up within it as it prepared to blast them to ashes instead. And though Gojo and Dark Sion saw an opportunity to try and disable the weapon here and there, Miquella's brainwashed army gathered around it, forming a powerful shield - daring anyone to try and attack it as it began the process of speeding up.
Aw man. Looks like I'm gonna break a sweat. Gojo said, sweating slightly in awe at what he'd seen - but prepared to try and make a difference all the same.
However, a fight wasn't necessary yet - the army made no move yet. It simply dared these godlike beings to attack.
BATMAN
Pfttt, of course I do. I bleed, but I never die. Can you say the same, Robin? Batman cracked his neck and shoulder as he watched the performers perform a... oddly morbid attack on him, he turns around, grabbing Seven's arms to keep him on his back as the cross would then slam into Seven.. And then Batman turn around and smiles as "Pyra" grabs the hammer, bearing down on Batman in a way that, he admit, would hurt even with that armor and Golden Vow stacked on top of each other.
But that's if he took it.
As the hammer bore down on Batman, he suddenly vanished, reappearing next to Pyra, dodging the hammer head as he gave her a smug look, fist clenched but not swung. Next was Jason, whom Batman then run at, with unusual speed for one clad in such armor. Regardless of how Jason would handle "Pyra", Batman would try to let him have the first swing.
If he did, Batman would duck and punch at unimaginable speed, impacting Jason right in the chest with explosive power that would be able to lift Jason off his feet and send him ragdolling at the other end of the room.
If he did not, Batman would start running, the ground cracking beneath his feet as he moved himself over to him. Then, as Jason would prepare to strike, Batman would swing his cape right in his face, with the daggers at the end of it being an extra "distraction". Should Jason be hit in the face or even blinded, Batman would then proceed to punch at him once in the kidney, then once in the face, then once in the neck, more or less trying to batter him in the torso, arms, shoulders and face with increasing power, ending with an uppercut.

Batman would then throw batarangs over at the group and close in on them before suddenly jumping in the air, letting a swarm of bats appear at his feet in a wide circle. They'd lash out at any enemy in the victiny, looking to disorient them by flying in their faces and clawing at them, or otherwise just... flying at them. And then Batman would come in, about a ton of metal and muscles flying about the battlefield with impossible, nightmarish grace, attempting to hit Vanilla, then Kass, then Honey, then Vanilla again, then Tony, even the chicken, with heavy punches and kicks, flinging himself across the battlefield like a much younger man. He would generally try to hit everyone with at least one strong punch or kick, except Ainz, the biggest and mightiest foe.
For him, Batman would suddenly come sliding forward twice, covering the distance in a manner Ainz could try to predict with a swing. However, Batman would try leaping over his head, grabbing his explosive gel and applying it over his head mid-swing. Then, he'd land behind Ainz to try to detonate the gel on his face before swinging a mighty punch at his back as he fell back.
Any attempt at interrupting Batman would be met with the fearsome TIGER DROP. A skill Batman copied that allows him to instantly retaliate to an attack with a devastating counter, so quick and strong as to be ensured to hit.
That done, Batman would grin, stick his hand out and gesture his fingers back and forth.
I'm the goddamn Batman. How much of a shot do you think you have against someone who tangled with Superman?
TIGER DROP - An overwhelming autohit move that allows Batman to land an explosive counter on anyone that try to get the drop of him! Coordinate with allies well to take the hit and land blows on the Dark Knight!
That's rad! Kiryu thinks to himself.

Beelzebub
grins in audacity at seeing the Domain be formed. He doesn't even try to prevent it due to being too far.
Did you just open a fucking domain?! Kusakabe yells, watching as a serene village replace the room containing the orb.
Beelzebub, for his part, is unfazed. He had one use of Chaos left before he could not use it anymore - it was a technique that damaged his body well. And it it hadn't been for Miquella, he would likely be very badly weakened - Satan's decision was a suicidal tantrum under the confident belief that Chaos would overcome his enemies. It hadn't, but he blamed it on the fact that they had escaped - and one of them was missing anyhow.
That he did. But it will save none of you. Beelzebub grinned, watching attacks rain on him. Raising his skull in his left hand, Beelzebub used Gates Of Hell to deflect them, but Siffrin's power and Kuveli's unexpected attack send him reeling backwards, with Beelzebub being sent reeling, arms snapping back to indicate their combined might was enough to surprise and overwhelm him.
I was expecting Siffrin to be empowered! But that woman... How? Beelzebub thought to himself as Kusakabe and Shadowheart let themselves by engulfed by the light of freedom. No matter! I simply need to weaken them more this time. They must not be able to outrun Chaos again... Beelzebub kept thinking. To deal with that, he grabbed the skull in his right hand this time.
SORATH VAU - WAVE Beelzebub drove his skull into the ground before swinging it upwards, sending a wave of piercing vibrations. His main target is Andras, whom he noticed is trying to do something - with the way Sorath Vau works as a wave, attempting to stop it won't work - the vibrations cross through any defense. One will need to move him out of the way or find a way to cancel it.
I'll deal with it! Shadowheart would move next to Andras and create a Guardian of Faith by clapping her hands together and thrusting them forward. Appearing in front of her is, ironically enough, an angelic creature, albeit one clad in golden armor, with a shield and sword matching its theming. It swing said sword against Sorath Tau, dispelling the wave, but nonetheless gaining cracks over its armor, curiously before even making contact.
I'll protect you! Just focus on praying to your deity! Shadowheart said.
However, Shadowheart's intervention took place late in the attack, meaning the rest of the group will need to deal with it, which will spare the Guardian of Faith the damage from dealing with it. And as it goes in, Beelzebub attack, targeting Casper and Doll. He'd stop, bending his upper body back, powerful muscles rippling beneath his frame as his own vibrations weaved through his body.
SORATH TAU - ARROW! Beelzebub would send a single vibration forward like an arrow, attempting to have it impact Doll and Casper like a freight train. Then, regardless of success, he would jump up in the air over them, skull in his left hand this time as he came down at Casper with his right arm turned into a deadly vibration blade.

GODWYN, DESTINED CONSORT OF MIQUELLA
The holograms themselves are just that - holograms. They dispel upon being hit, but they'd already lost their purpose after attacking. Still, Miquella take notice of the attack, as well of the fact that it had been successful in driving the likes of Zero and William to despair... or hand-chopping misery. And even as counters over his ideology rain over him, he decides that it doesn't matter to him. He also has to decide that because he's quickly caught off guard by the next attack that comes his way.
Namely, Galvadoll using a gigantic fuckoff cannon right in Godwyn's face.
Oh. Miquella said, before Godwyn left himself to be engulfed by the light, vanishing beneath it and giving the group some time to reconvene as the beam blasted through and went off into the distance beyond the Tree of Life. But as it did, and as it threatened to hit some of the floating figures, a roar would emanate from it - one that neither Miquella nor Godwyn could produce. And a golden beam of light would strike out from within the Fusion Canon's blast, as the head of a golden dragon stuck out, matching the sheer power of Galvadoll's gun, creating a beam clash between them that illuminated the battlefield with colors to make one go spastic.
Godwyn emerged, surrounded by three ghostly disembodied heads belonging to the same dragon, of mighty size, the heads alone filled with scars and remnants from a past battle. And it spat a second beam, which would overwhelm Galvadoll's fusion cannon decisively, hitting anyone besides her as the two beams would drag themselves forward across the battlefield, engulfing anything in front of Godwyn in golden pillars of flames that would generally try to hit anyone in the battlefield.
And then the third head would roar, as Godwyn rose to the air, arms spread to the side as Placidusax's third mouth would fire a beam, this time doing an horizontal sweep to try once again hitting everyone on the battlefield at once, leaving out a trail of destruction in its wake once more. And then, as Zerenis attacked, Miquella would detect the bizarre nature of the attack and retaliate by turning Godwyn into light, zipping across the battlefield to directly reach Zerenis, turning back to normal once on top of him.
He'd stomp the ground first, once again causing spikes to rise from said ground to try to impact Zerenis all over. Pillars of light would fall in front of Miquella and Godwyn directly to impact him further, with Godwyn then swinging his right axe horizontally, with red bolts of lightning falling in front of him, then his left axe horizontally, with pillars of light this time, then he'd leap to perform a X-shaped slash with his two axes (having crossed his arms in front of his body), leaving out bolts of lightning and light in his wake, crossing the battlefield in front of him to once again hit anyone in front of him.
His timing is slightly off due to the ice - it causes Godwyn to slide forward farther than he thought he would, which coule save Zerenis's life by making Godwyn glide past him.
Got it. Law answers Sephiroth during this, with some time being bought by the... manoeuver.
Despite that and his size, Godwyn's movements are fluid, effortlessly moving around and swinging his axes with controlled precision and strength. And as he completes the upwards motions of his swing, Godwyn roars, threatening to stun people near him. This buy him time to slam his axe into the ground towards Zerenis, with the axes getting stuck on said ground regardless of success before Godwyn pulls them out with a violent upwards thrust, causing red bolts and light to erupt from around him, crossing across the entire battlefield to, once again, become an Area of Effect attack that threaten to hit everyone.
And then Zero would come in, with Godwyn nonchalatanly raising his axe to block the attack. Then the axes clash, and Godwyn is forced to his knee, a look of shock on Miquella's face as Godwyn uses his second axe to place it beneath the first. A miscalculation on the god's part, which William, N, Stark and Joanne exploit well, marking Godwyn's flesh with red marks and burns
Pressured, Godwyn turns to light, blipping upwards and then coming down hard, attempting to crush Miquella, Zero and Joanne with an explosive stomp attack. Once that is done, and regardless of success, Miquella himself goes on the offensive as Godwyn blips across the back of the battlefield, once again at the speed of light. There, Godwyn channels light on his axes, raising one axe over his head while holding the latter at his chest level. Holiness gathers around the weapons as he does it, then he swing them, sending a gigantic discus of light forward at the group, with the intent to cleave through all of them.
It moves at the speed of light, dodging is impossible - one will need to block it. Jumping, even high, or ducking, even low, will result in damage still being taken.
DISCUS OF LIGHT - COOPERATE WITH ALLIES TO BLOCK THE ATTACK OR TAKE MASSIVE DAMAGE
But Miquella isn't done - he spreads his arms to the side and Godwyn begin rising in the air, a soft golden glow surround them. And spread onwards, not quite covering the full battlefield, but still moving swiftly.

Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterGateway to Utopia
Shadow and Neodyme stare in confusion at Fate, noticing that he's still holding the Primordial Shapeshifter, and Neodyme exchanges a glance with Shadow. Shadow throws up his hands in exasperation.
"Whadda'ya' mean you're 'not sure‽' I had two choices here, bringing this up to either you or to Mara, and like Hell I'm gonna' trust her with this when I've already seen her twist plenty of my deepest grievances against me today with her needless cruelty!"
Shadow and Neodyme stare blankly at Fate's comment about the Godbuster, and Shadow takes on a disbelieving look.
"...do you even realize what
you just sai-"
And then he senses the Godbuster waking and starting its firing sequence, and doesn't just go pale, but all color quickly and entirely drains from both himself and his clothing as he stares in absolute shock.
"HOLY FRICKIN'- NEOGETOUTRIGHTNOW!"
Shadow tackles Neodyme, and the pair just barely have time to warp a safe distance away from Fate before the Godbuster fires, and can only watch in horror as the hellish weapon of mass destruction unleashes its payload where they had just been.
They exchange a silent glance, both sensing the full gravity of the situation, just how powerful this weapon is, and what it was able to do with a single shot.
—Beat—
"...aaaaaaaaaaaaaaare you FRIGGIN' KIDDIN' ME‽ WHY THE HELL WOULD ANYONE BUILD THAT THING‽"
"Did it just- Those worlds- I-"
Shadow snarls in anger, glaring in the direction of the Godbuster's blast, and pulls Neodyme close, giving a reassuring glance to his sibling.
"I'm sure everything's going to be okay. Just stay present, alright? I know this is probably the worst possible introduction to this place, now that everything's gone to crap for the fiftieth time in a friggin' row, but we're gonna' get through this, okay? We have way too much riding on us to just give up now."

"Life isn't a fairytale. There isn't always a 'Happily Ever After' waiting for you at the end of the road." ~ Isengrim Heath-Stalker"Let's go."
As he goes from a walk to a full tilt sprint, Jason barrels headlong towards Apex Batman, ducking to avoid the hurled Pyra before throwing a punch the second he manages to close the distance. Apex Batman manages to successfully evade his oncoming fist, however, and send him flying with a retaliatory strike to the chest. Now sporting a large fist-sized dent in his body armor, Jason crashes to the floor with a pained grunt.
"Blast him! Rush him from either side!" he shouts at Salazar and the two Yazuka respectively, catching a thrown batarang and crushing it to pieces.
When Apex Batman comes lunging towards him, he quickly manages to bring his forearm up in time to block the blow, the impact knocking him back. He then shakes his head.
"Superman held back against you. I WON'T!"
As Apex Batman focuses on taking Ainz out first, Jason charges at him like a runaway freight train in bid to seize the fallen Dark Knight by the front of his armor and use his Venom-boosted strength to slam him hard against the nearest wall. Should his attack succeed, Jason will follow up by attempting to relentlessly brutalize Apex Batman's face and torso with one savage punch after the other, bash his head into said wall after the Bane-level beatdown, and take off running once more to grind his cranium against the surface ala Broly pulling the exact same maneuver on Goku before launching him up towards one of the gargoyles he'd armed with an explosive.
"I don't know. Perhaps they consider it a small price to pay in exchange for saving countless worlds. I only hope they didn't make the decision lightly," Thor says.
"Something along those lines albeit minus the brain eating. A friend of mine and I encountered a shapeshifting monster, I nearly strangled it to death for daring to use the memory of my mother against me," Loki says. "But the wretched thing managed to escape before I could crush its throat. In retrospect, I really should have gone for the head."
"Look on the bright side, Hrimnir. At least you have some powerful new allies now," Sylvie says.

Proof of a True Hero
Nymbulda saw Batman moving around like a madman. Evading Pyra's hammer... jumping for Ainz. A mortal man with way too much time on his hands. She'd just have to wing it, stabbing forward, trying to find purchase in his chest wirh Percival's sharp end.
"Starting to wonder just how paranoid you are!"
But as the bats clouded her vision, biting and scratching at her as they screeched in those high frequencies that rung through her skull-
Did the batman deliver a pretty strong kick to the back of her skull. She went flying a tad, rolling over the ground. Blood formed at the edges of her eyes, and there was a pained gasp-
That than led to her immediately picking up her lance again, calling out to Cap, Jason, and Kiryu.
"Our future is looking grim, and the chance to enjoy it is looking thin. But! We don't live or die based on his whims! Onwards with me! It'll hurt, but if he thinks we mean nothing, we'll prove to him otherwise!"
She'd lunge first, a roar leaving her as she would try to stab him again. The explosive blows would rock through her body, throwing her back another 15 feet. But instead of just rolling along the ground, she'd instead just lunge back in. All the bloodclotted patches and bruising made raw across her face and chest seemed only to invigorate her.
In fact for Kiryu, she'd share the hits meant for him, aiming with her horns to tank the hit. Parts of her horns broke, bloody pieces of coral-like growth scattering from the impact-
And yet she soldiers on.
"How rude of me Mister Wayne! For being free!"
Stabbing her lance into the earth, she through her shoulder forward to meet his face head on, trying to literally pin him between herself and Cap's shield.
The Manmade Horror Beyond Comprehension
Without his heart, Casper was actually losing color. And getting slower. Looking to Doll, he just sighed and left out a depressed sigh.
"Are we dying? We're dying aren't we..."
That's then when he saw the angel descending... and grimaced.
"...maybe not."
He reached his hand up, clinging onto doll as a mutilated corpse practically.
"Putting your trust into you... get me on the back of the totem... SHADOWHEART! SEND YOUR COWORKER TO COVER US!"
Meanwhile, the Totem was having fun with Beezlebub turned away, and grabbing a piece of debris from the village, gnawed it into a spear, cackling as it ran forward and tries to throw the spear into his back to catch his attention. And if it did, the bull-head would slam itself into the ground, narrowly avoiding Beezlebub as the creature flipped towards him, slamming it's palms down trying to catch him. It moved more like a spring coil bending our of shape as it reached him.
"Δ ₣ØŘ€V€Ř ŦΔƤ-ŦΔƤ-Δ-ŦΔƤƤƗŇǤ ΔŦ ¥ØỮŘ Ħ€ΔĐ

After a bit too much glee in that final verse, the drawings on his body began to shift to be more or less... Beezlebub. Running on all fours, held in leash by Satan, sharing the lead with Miquella. As below them, layed naked and screaming, was Beezlebub himself, standing atop a writhing corpse of a familiar drone.
"ŦĦƗŞ ΜỮŞŦ β€ ŦĦ€ ŴØŘŁĐ β€ŁØŴ ¥ØỮŘ ĐŘ€ΔΜŞ

Its jaws tried to snatch Beezlebub off guard. As all it did was chase and chase him, speaking in his own voice.
"I swear it, don't fear it, just hear it, revere it
Blaspheme it, and sear it, you'll see it by clearance
Divinity's Instance is here and it's nearing completion
The Visages on the Wall will know it by twilight's accretion
The old gods are dead, your soul-blight secures it and

O Reader O Mine
Luckily, reactive armor had returned to Galvadoll and Gaikarmog, as strands of temporal webbings erupted from the impact sites, slowing down some of the damages of the beams as both the giants were slowly being cooked by the dragon heads.
Gaikarmog made eye contact with N as he tumbles away from where had stood, reaching out for William as Gaikarmog was now bleeding profusely. Starry orange, glittering star core plasma that leaked from his shoulder and right side. He seemed not only annoyed at his wounds, but also nervous. A low rumble left him as he saw the light heading their way. Dragging himself forward, he looks to N and mumbles something out, in a real tongue. Spoken words. But, it fails to meet any translations, so he grimaces, making the mental connections to whoever will listen.
Desires come at a price. Protections, require sacrifice. But, I've never been one to enjoy the rules.
Forming Cry energy around himself, he begins to heat from his core.
As if entering a chrysalis. His body did seem gnarled, Gaikarmog's own cyro breath eventually began to thin out, as he tried to make up the formation with hydro, rapidly cooled by anemo into a swirl.
A fountain of energy for those present.
Giving power back it seemed,
Close your eyes, say the word, and let the darkness guide your way.

Sirius opens his mouth, but seems to have become at a loss for words, so simply closes it, and tentatively walks over to Thor, pawing at his leg, silently asking for the God of Thunder to pick him up. Anya moves over to Isengrim and Orion, and settles in with them, sighing with a despondent frown.
"I can't believe this is happening...I don't like saying it, but...if I didn't know better, I'd say it was a mistake for us to come here...I mean, I really want to save Mum, but...everything here is so different from home, so much stronger than we're used to...we're all in way over our heads..."
Orion presses his forehead against Anya's, giving her a reassuring glance.
"It's gonna' be alright, Sis. We're in this together."
Daimion stares.
"...Hells, those things sound horrific."
Hrimnir nods to Sylvie.
"A small blessing..."
And then the group's attention is caught by a blast that sears the air in the distance. The cubs yelp in shock, and Isengrim scrabbles to his paws, bristling with a growl, as Daimion and Hrimnir jerk upright in their seats, Hrimnir having to keep from accidentally flipping the table over.
"...what in the name of the Nine Realms was THAT‽"

At Guivre’s lunge, Manmoth cackled and spread his shaggy arms wide. He wrestled with the gargant, throwing punch after punch at Guivre’s ribs and underbelly while his other hand attempted to pry loose the jaws locked firmly around his tusk. "I AM LEASHED TO THE ORDER, BROTHER! THE ORDER SO ANCIENT, THE HUMAN PARASITE WILL CALL IT NEW WHEN IT RETURNS! THE NATURAL ORDER!"
Homelander’s eyes found his and, intuiting what happens after a flying superhero’s eyes turned red with growing intensity, quickly turned away, the lasers singing the fur at the back of his head and even melting some of the flesh. But that wasn’t the worse loss; as the quickness of the motion, merged
with Guivre’s grip, snapped the tusk loose. A pained howl became one of fury. Manmoth attempted to snatch his now-severed pride from the wyvern’s jaws and thrust it into Guivre’s own flesh, using it now as an ivory spear.

With agreement to Angel, the android’s orb shook: "Indeed." And now, reinforced by an all-new material taking form into a human shape, he rose alongside Angel while running analytics on it for future reference. These crystals, if replicable, would undoubtedly be fit to serve as his “skeleton” in all future molds. But that was later. There was a now to be dealt with.
And for now, he lacked the materials necessary to manifest the many gadgets, missiles and laser-arms and fissile weapons saved as schematics in his banks, but that was alright; he could attempt to procure and process what he needed later. For now, he had Angel’s Gift, and that would need to serve. Eager—as eager as something of his origin could be—to test this new material, he rocketed from the sea and back into open air, thrust forwards by the burning and expulsion of raw energy at Ana from behind. Then, with seconds left until impact, Cittufeni drew back his arm and prepared to throw a punch.
No doubt she’d know he was coming. No doubt she’d avoid the initial attack, and counter with something else. Simulations played over eachother, all of them making empty promises of what she’d do. For the first time ever, he ignored them. If he wanted even a chance of the three of them triumphing here, he’d need to disregard the predictive programming built into him and rely only on himself, on his own memories of every fight he’d been in since coming to this place, to intuit what she’d do next. And of course, there was no chance at besting her physically. But it was his intent to at least keep her preoccupied, keep her in place throwing fists with him, for what Artemis had planned.
——
"Swing—?!" A smirk formed beneath his mask. Admirative of the Maxx’s style, he said: "Alright." Two webs thwipped against the Maxx’s skin. Checking first that no civilians were nearby, he took the two webs in both hands…and began to spin. Like a highland weight-thrower he built momentum, before loosing the Maxx at last at the approaching Rhino, watching whatever was about to unfold with glee.

With great power…you know the rest.Hub Turtalis
Before Carth can respond, he's back to blocking spears. Then a hammer shatters the barrier and he barely reacts in time to avoid being pummeled. He observes for a moment before raising his palms up... and shooting miniature energy spears back at Gerson!
Well he didn't say no.
UTOPIA - RAGNAROK, God-LOSER
The reactive armor from Gaikarmog turned the attack from excruciating to "only" very painful on Galvadoll as she was sent back. She recovers to just barely avoid the followup attack, then have to focus in quickdodging the followup attack to his followup attack (which she was out of range of since she wasn't in front of him).
Then the discus starts being prepped and she goes over to Stark.
"Right, you. The rich guy who funded this mess, help me power up a barrier so we don't completely get destroyed." she says to him, generating one as Gaikarmog also boosts her up as she reluctantly once again puts some faith in the big guy.

Beelzebub
This is going to hurt, Doll thinks as she decides to instead of trying to dodge the undodgeable or unlockable to simply reinforce herself with Dark Energon to facetank it for Siffrin. It... really fucking hurts and she's staggered but not down and out and bears the brunt of it for Casper (who quite frankly she's surprised isn't dead).
Then Beelz himself drops down at them with a vibroblade. So she opts to quickly manifest a blade of her own, though the hasty make of it means it only holds for a bit before shattering. Just enough time for her to grab Casper with her other hand and short range tely away.
And then she lifts him up telekinetically and fucking throws him like a baseball at Totem.

Batman
Batman: Arkham Knight loading screen ambience
Thor blinks in surprise before picking Sirius up.
"I only hope this one doesn't go on to become more than a mere nuisance. We're dealing with enough nonsense as it is," Loki says.
"Better than no blessing at all," Sylvie says.
Cue the blast going off overhead.
"If I had to wager a guess, I'd say the battle has shifted in one way or another."
For The Heavens Contain Enough Beauty That I Am Driven Blind
In the distance, a heavenly comet sailed beyond the sky, roaring its way across the cosmos. Its deafening growl cut through the sound of battle, and Ana glanced, for just a moment, towards its source.
She said nothing.
As the roaring subsided, Artemis's light grew to a blinding intensity, drowning out the lights of Miquella and Ana in sheer resplendence— at least, locally speaking, when it came to the former. Ana's eyes and attention slid up to Artemis, finding her in an instant. Her lips crept up into a smile.
"I do not... fear. You understand," she said, slowly agonizing over every word, "Those thoughts. Those... feelings. The biochemistry, electrical signals, unquantifiably uncomplex machinery— I am... Beyond."
Both Angel and Cittufeni attacked at once.
"Beyond thought, and life," she said. Her voice was calm.
She caught Cittufeni's punch, and grabbed ahold of his fist with psychic energy attached to the stump of which of her arms was still flesh, the force barely causing her to recoil.
"Death, and the darkness you think... it entails."
Angel descended with a swing of her sword. Ana attempted to simply take Cittufeni and throw him into her attack, but Angel flash-stepped a distance so swiftly she was able to deliver a slash that forced Ana to let Cittufeni go, or else take a strike directly.
"Time, and space, and reason—"
"—Can you be quiet for a single second!"
Angel shouted out, brandishing the Aegis sword. "I know what you are, Ana. I get it, for god—" Ana raised an eyebrow as Angel corrected herself. "—For goodness sake, do you ever do anything but spend every moment of your existence trying to make everyone's beautiful lives into hell?"
Ana opened her mouth, but Angel cut her off from speaking.
"That was a rhetorical question, and you know it!"
Having successfully captured Ana's attention, Angel threw her sword away from her, and straight at Cittufeni. The weapon surged into his hands, igniting with emerald light.
Suddenly, Cittufeni felt his faculties expand. His ability to simulate instantly transformed.
If he merely willed it, he could select a single outcome from what he foresaw of the future, and that outcome would become inevitable. Probability would bend so that any feasible desire could become reality given enough time and permutation.
With the obvious catch being that Ana, as always, would almost certainly find a way to resist him anyways. Still, it was rather handy, to put it lightly, controlling the passage of fate.
Angel rushed at Ana, engaging her in a high-stakes, short-ranged fistfight, keeping her occupied for long enough that Cittufeni could get a grip on this new power, as well as buying time for Artemis to prepare whatever decisive thing she had in store.

Yatta!Jorrvaskr
Siris settles into Thor's lap, nestling into him with a sigh. He's clearly nervous, as he's trembling like a leaf, and his eyes flick up to meet Thor's, a look of uncertainty visible in his gaze.
"...thank you...I'm...I'm really scared right now, Mister Thor...not just for us, but for everyone out there...I can't imagine how bad the Gods' lives must have been for them to try to destroy Utopia, or to try to hurt us here...I feel so bad for them..."
The other cubs exchange a somber glance, and all nod.
"...honestly, I'm scared as well."
"I don't like to admit it, but me too."
"I think we all are..."
Isengrim gives his cubs a nod.
"Believe it or not, I am too..."
His cubs give him a surprised look.
Isengrim turns his gaze to each cub pointedly, continuing.
"...but that's to be expected in this circumstance. It's not healthy to be completely fearless. And, rest assured, whatever happens, I won't let anything come between you and me. Not now, not ever."
He smiles.
"I promise."
This seems to help put the cubs at ease somewhat, and they settle slightly, though Sirius still nuzzles into Thor, while Stela glances up at Sylvie, giving her a thoughtful, hesitant look, before lowering her head to rest on her paws, curling her tail around herself.
Hrimnir shakes his head, frowning gravely.
"I hope the heroes who have joined to stop these corrupted Gods are able to turn the tide..."

Save
- Dystopia - the Battles
Furious Cowl, Apex Batman - Trick-Stars and Bros
|You (are pissed)|
“FUCK THIS MAGICAL GIRL ASS SHI-”
“Pyra” works best at long ranges and setting ambushes, but conversely if you catch “Pyra” off guard at extremely close ranges, they’ll freeze up and can’t respond quickly!
The punch connects in close range, sending “Pyra” hurling towards a wall, the force being too much for “Pyra” to respond mid-flight!
|Honey and Kass|
“”PYRA”!”
Honey and Kass attempt to rush towards “Pyra” to help their friend recover, but is blocked by Batman’s Bullet Hell attack!
Honey and Kass both take a few Batarangs and bats as they use their weapons to dispel some of them, though compared to “Pyra” they don’t feel as much pain from rage adrenaline of their friend taking a forced hit.
Cue Tiger Drop.
|Honey|
“Damn, not having friends to share the pain is such a scary thing…”
Meanwhile, “Pyra”, who barely recovers from the giant attack from rage adrenaline witnesses the barrage, decides to do something even in such a bad state.
|You|
“Time for an Ol’ Reliable Charge-Up Attack…”
“Pyra” weakly plugs the Snow Halation SONG Drive into Victoria and starts playing.
Snow Halation creates a protective bubble that also acts like a Shockwave Stomp. As one of TA’s signature “Group Charge” attacks, as more allies join in, the size, expansion speed, and attack power increases as well!
Not only that, “Pyra” is indirectly calling for Kiryu and Nishiki’s support!
Honey and Kass are among the first to detect “Pyra” playing, and is among the first to provide support:
|Honey|
“ Fushigi da ne ima no kimochi / Sora kara futte kita mitai / Tokubetsu na kisetsu no iro ga tokimeki o miseru yo / Hajimete deatta toki kara”
|Kass|
[We can boost this shield as well!]
The Bros, for now, will also boost Snow Halation with… Koopa Troop black magic I suppose.
Blindingly Bright Axe Knight, Godwyn - Cyclones
| Joanne |
“ None of you can spell. ”
Cue Explosive Stomp about to hit the Cyclones’ Orbit Attack!
Which Joanne just dodges because Godwyn is trying to attack a “Joanna” that doesn’t even exist
Joanne quickly reforms as Monica and Lily falls back, and attempts to use her axe like a tennis racket to swat Godwyn upwards!
Regardless of success (Joanne splits apart then reforms near her friends if she fails), the team will then divert focus to the discus attack.
|Lily|
“This looks like something that can only be blocked.”
| Joanne |
“ The harder you block, the harder a Shieldbreaker skill will fold you. ”
Despite her comment on blocking attacks, Joanne will still set up a large Paladin Barrier to block Godwyn, with Lily seemingly adding icicles onto the barrier to damage Godwyn back when he crashes. Monica sets up another tailwind to hopefully slow Godwyn down or even block him back.

Du-Du-Wa-Do-It, Arena KatsudouJapan!!
Ouazo just look up the whole time, trailing the figures. He wasn't sure why he should follow some worthless thiefs, but he listened to the arthrophod anyway. His target couldn't have gone that far - nor would he need so many... consulations with the local when she couldn't possibly do the same.
But yet, those were the advices of an old and wisened beast, whom he would be foolish to dismiss out of the blue.
I am looking for a human female. She has treaded in my domain and left it in one piece. I intend to undo that.
Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterUsing his axe to tear the turret free of its supports, Thorsig dropped from the roof and onto Deux’s gundam, crawling along its ridges until he reached the cockpit, where he promptly began smashing his axe in an effort to break his way in, unaware that the Medicine Vendor was already within.
Deux was…a human. Worse yet, Ex was an alien. So then why, why, had he sprung to defend the xenoling? He growled at himself, yet did not cease his hacking. This was twice now that the little xenoling had proved to be the undoing of his morals. He despised it, he despised her for the failure of his ideals, but on a deeper level he wasn’t yet ready to examine, he despised himself, not for allowing them to fail…but for waiting so long to do it. None of that changed the immediate problem that needed to be addressed, that Deux was a traitor, and if there was one thing Thorsig hated more than xenos, mutants, robots, heretics, Warpspawn, inquisitors, bureaucrats, bad mead, and himself, it was a traitor.

Maxx soared through the air, and as he swung towards the Rhino, he narrowed his gaze at Rhino's own face.
He unsprung and kicked Rhino straight in the face with both feet, using his momentum to sail across the street with Rhino as the board. Once they hit the curb, Maxx the swung around and aimed his claws at the Rhino, seeing if they were conked out or not.

"I hope you're right, Mister Thor…", Sirius whimpers.
Anya glances between Sirius and Thor, flattening her ears a bit, then perks up, thinking of something.
"Hey, Pop?"
Isengrim blinks, glancing back to Anya.
"Yes?"
Anya glances between Loki, Sirius, and Isengrim, looking thoughtful.
"So, Sirius and I were talking to Mister Loki, and he told us about a friend that he has, and I wanted to know if we could meet her later."
Sirius blinks, perking up at Anya's words, and glances between Loki and Isengrim.
"Yeah, I remember!"
Isengrim chuckles, smiling.
"Oh? Well…"
He gives Loki a curious smile.
"…what's this friend of yours like?"
"Life isn't a fairytale. There isn't always a 'Happily Ever After' waiting for you at the end of the road." ~ Isengrim Heath-StalkerAs the Maxx made contact, Spider-Man leapt up from where he stood, pirouetting over the Rhino flying back, and dropped a little red ball; webs springing from the gizmo’s side and instantly clinging to two streetlights on either side. Rather than crash into any of the buildings lining the street, the Rhino fell back into this net. Even if he were still conscious—which, after the Maxx’s blow, he most surely was not—he’d have been hard pressed to escape. Still, just to be sure, the Spider-Man webbed the villain’s hands and feet to the net. In the near distance rose the wailing sirens of the approaching damage control, too late to stop it yet just in time to clean up…as always. The Spider-Man zipped across the street, clinging to a wall near the Maxx and addressing him. "Good fighting. I don’t know that I’ve seen you around before?"
With great power…you know the rest.The New Yorkers
Spiderman found Maxx just staring blankly ahead, facing where the Rhino had been. The webbing surrounding him. How he rested suspended above the ground. But it didn't seemed like he was even acknowledging it.
The Outback
The Young Spider carries alot of responsibility. Smart kid. But he seems like a pushover. At least he's trying his best.
The Maxx looked amidst the thick jungle, Izs gathered around the edges of his vision, snickering and cackling. Sneering, hungry grins not focused on the incapacitated Rhino Knight, though he bore some scars. They looked to the quasi-human jumping spider boy before him.
"...Why did it all feel so familiar? I don't like that."]
Was his first response to the masked wonder, before looking up at him with his hands against the ground like retro-caveman piece.
"... I live in a cardboard box in district eight. I'm not allowed in the shelter. I'm Vengeance. I'm... The Maxx... You?"
AwawaFamiliar? There was a whole can of beans to unpack with this guy, that much was obvious. Not that he minded. "Just a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man." Though he was admittedly thrown off by the Maxx’s description of himself as “vengeance.” And that he lived in District 8…Spider-Man looked him up and down. He doesn’t look like a bat, but I guess crooks don’t see as well as night. Especially when their heads are getting knocked together. "You know, if its a place to stay you need, I know somewhere not far from here. I know the owner. I’m sure he’d let you in."
With great power…you know the rest.New Yorkers
Maxx shook his head, dragging his claws along the ground as he tapped his feet against the ground.
"I couch surfed at Casper's occasionally. The Totem? But Baz thinks I'm off... She didn't tell me to leave. I just didn't want to annoy her. Don't know if the dude you know would like me around... Unless he has the good cable networks..."
As he rocked on his heel he did seem despite how vibrant his colors were... stiff. Like he was always spaced out. That's when his expression seemed to go from vacant and lightly murderous to...
Intensely focused.
"There are Izs around us... they haven't followed me in a while. So they must be following you. Spider-Man..."
Before he returned to again, furrowed brow as if contemplating how to break someone's neck.
"...That's funny... you looked more like a spider earlier."
AwawaCaspe—?ohhhhhthetotemiveheardofthatguy
"It’s worth checking, isn’t it? And besides, you’re not the weirdest guy he’s ever taken in…no offense…" Then came the change in appearance, to which the Spider-Man was privy. "Izs?" That, coupled with his final comment, and the masked menace came to a new reckoning: Clearly he isn’t all there…mentally. I think he needs more help than just a place to stay, even if his heart does seem like its in the right place…
With great power…you know the rest.

Godwyn
William's elemental reserves were drained by helping Gaikarmog, worsened further when the piston kinda does its thing. Given Godwyn powering up by Miquella showing up he can recouperate some losses. He'd open his mouth but says nothing when N shoots him. That's not Miquella — likely a projection from his actual area over yonder.
With Miquella's intangibility in mind maybe he could use something to draw him out or force a tangible projection to be formed. Maybe a Domain Expansion? Not yet, the fact he gave out so much power defending kind of makes the move a borderline last ditch. The holograms come out. He points his ha—
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
nd.
Normally a painless near-usual experience — even during the prison break — the sensation is now renewed. He's missing a hand and regenerating a human one takes a fuck ton more energy than his usual vitruvian form. Worse yet he dropped the Hand of Malenia, the one blade he reforged specifically to better hurt beings like Godwyn. He can use his regular attacks but he is one for efficiency after all
Amidst the lightning, he nearly gets a new haircut while picking up the sword. He heats its base up to a red hot glow.
What follows is a scream that befits the gutteral agony he's experiencing he forcibly shoves the blade's tang deeeep into the exposed bone and muscle. The visual irony of doesn't even cross his mind, he can't afford to lose it now and using it as a prosthetic guarantees it wont.
With adrenaline violently pumping through his veins, he gathers as much energy as possible into the blade, teleports, then unleashes a flurry upon Godwyn.
LARP
Homelander intends not to be so firmly pressed against the earth with some animal thing on top of him and
fails to swat Guivre away. He gets up, having been grounded annoys him. The fact the manmoth even had the strength for that was outright baffling. Minor inconvenience now turned into mild. Thankfully by the time he gets up Guivre's back to being up close. Even better, clashing.
"Now keep. It. Still." He makes eye contact with the Manmoth, frowns, and immediately tries to laser him blind. Straight to the ocular.
