Morgana, Bipedal Form- Garden

"Ha, you're going to have to move faster than that to get past me"- Morgana was cut off as a strange fog rolled in, and everything slowed for a few seconds. "What the-?" As if immune to the magic mist, the white wolf shot past him before time continued on as normal. He growled and tried to catch up, but she had gotten a good amount of distance between them as they reached the garden.

"Hey, I didn't know magic was allowed!"

Bedroom

A little bit of that old bloodlust got to Akira. Much as he hated to think about it, fighting was fun to him. Even as he lost to Ryo, he felt alive and powerful. Maybe that was the ultimate sign of how wrong he was.

"Akira Fudo." Akira said, smiling only a little bit. "You're a Saiyan? I'm a Devilman. I led other Devilmen too, but I'm no prince." His smile widened. "I learned a lot about fighting. You think Saiyans are the greatest warrior race, you haven't seen the terrible things humans and demons are capable of. Nuclear bombs. Armies. Bigotry. You're making a big statement."

Chun-Li, Bedroom

"Tenko, you do know that our captors are filming our every move, right?" Chun-Li said as she sat on her bed and looked around the room for any sign of a camera. "This is another demented reality show of theirs, which means we'll have no privacy from whoever is watching this show."


Juri, Kitchen

"Eh, I'm happy with my noodles," Juri waved off the breakfast and continued to eat her noodles, only pausing from it to talk. "Besides, sweets just aren't my thing."

"You might be able to bribe Chun-Li to dine here with those pancakes, though you should replace the strawberries with blueberries if you really want to get Chun-Li to come running," Juri chuckled at Jan, as if referencing an inside joke. "She's definitely got a sweet tooth on her."

Kitchen - That Little Girl Keeps Bitchin'

"Huh? I don't need help with the steaks, just the... waffles...." Valkyrie replied to Ionia, slowly turning around from the stove to the counter, a feeling of dread suddenly forming in her gut. Or at least where her gut would be if she were a human. Being a sword meant that her gut was replaced with some sort of series of magical gears and power sources that probably just incinerated pancakes if she tried to eat them, instead of digesting food like a flesh-and-blood person. But still, she felt some dread there, whatever you called it. Her dread kept rising as she rotated where she hovered, until finally she saw what was on the other countertop.

The unattended waffle iron, where inside of it the unattended waffle was being disproportionately burned on one side, which meant that any second it was going to -

The waffle iron burst into flames as the waffle inside of it burned hard and fast, a plume of smoke rising from it. The chocolate contributed its own burnt sugar scent to the baked funeral pyre, one last reminder of what could have been.

"Nooooooo!" she cried out, kneeling in front of the counter and seemingly having tears fall from her eyes, despite her lack of tear ducts. She had both of her hands braced on the countertop, and balled one of them into a fist which she lightly pounded onto the surface. "It was going to be perfect!"

"Who does that!?" Valkyrie said to the camera, still unhappy about 'the incident'. "The waffle didn't do anything wrong, and it deserved to be cooked and eaten by someone who cared about it."
"I didn't even ask you to help with anyone else's food, it was just your own waffle, whyyyyyy?" she begged Ionia.

Kitchens

"Oh, that would be most welcome!" All but clapping her hands together at the sheer enthusiasm, Corrin couldn't help but falter as she saw the giant hunk of meat brought out. At the very least she didn't have to eat all of it considering that the good woman (even if she was rather scantily clad) was cutting out a portion.

Sadly for her appetite, due to the fact that someone else didn't want to serve herself her own meal and left the batter inside of the strange gleaming contraption for too long, the whole thing seemed to have spontaneously combusted and became a flaming hazard. "FIRE!" Knowing full well that to leave such a thing to make other flammable objects catch go up in a blaze was bad, the queen decided to put it out the only way she knew how.

Seeing that the futuristic abode didn't really have any access to a source of water to her more medieval world view, the girl grunted before pointing her arm at the offending iron before what appeared to be thick rolls of bandages uncoiled from out of nowhere. Firing off a steady stream of water while preventing the more... monstrous quality from appearing in plain view, the human water hose went to work on being a discount fire fighter.

Kitchen

Rinoa had set about getting the cutlery all sorted out, and had been about to go get the plates when the unmistakable sound and smell of fire reached her.

"Huh?"

She whirled around, only to find that Valkyrie was beating on the counter in a dramatic fashion, the waffle iron was on fire, and Corrin was trying to put out the fire.

"Hold on! Water!"

After briefly bringing her hand up to her chest, she throws it outwards, sending a burst of water (mich weaker than the combat application of the spell) at the ignited waffle iron.

Medicine - Main Hall

That the girl was so attached to Hieda surprised Medicine more than a bit. Still, that this girl was truly attached was clear to see. Honestly it tugged at Medicine's heartstrings a bit. That said, she couldn't let it distract from the important bit. This human had declined her generous offer, proving herself possessed of the same perfidy and selfishness that characterized the species. The only difference here seemed to be that this one lacked the power to express those sides of herself.

Altogether it left Medicine unsure as to what to do. Honestly she should just off this one and be done with it, but her genuine attachment, a relationship that would end in heartbreak once the girl realized the truth was saddening. More than anything Medicine just wanted to done with this conversation.

The next moment Medicine's right arm shot forward, clamping her hand over Toko's mouth. Chloroform welled up from in-between her fingers and palm. The youkai held Toko until the girl went slack, at which point she let her fall into a heap unconscious.

Afterwards Medicine glanced around, for there had to be someone here worth dealing with. Her gaze fell upon a masked figure against the wall. She couldn't make out any details, beyond the fact that the colours of their respective outfits matched. Curious, she floated towards the cloaked man.

"Hello. Are you interested in hearing about the emancipation of dolls?"

Flowey- Stairs to the garden

So, the cat was pretending to be an human and the bug that his wolf was a goddess? Considering his own experience with being stuck in another form, this could be interesting. But he wanted to have more private conservation. He burrowed straigth to the garden, and when the animals finished their little race, he got out. He greeted them while doings his best saccharine facade.

"Howdy, folks! I'm Flowey, Flowey the flower! And golly, it's nice to see other non-human there! I was feeling a bit out-of-place. You aren't plant, but a cat, a bug and a wolf aren't bad too." His last sentence was deliberately meant to see what was their reactions to being called what they outwardly seemed to be.

Vegeta, Bedroom

Vegeta's smirk disappeared.

"Sounds like your world's humans and demons destroyed each other. Just like the Saiyans."

That last statement had an added hint of remorse, the same kind of cynicism that Akira painted his words about humans.

"I said that Saiyans were the finest warrior race in all the galaxy. I never said they were the proudest. They cast that pride aside to serve a tyrant and got themselves wiped off the map for it. I don't represent what the Saiyans were, I represent what they should've been."

Bedroom

It wasn't the full-blown sobbing from earlier, but a few distinct tears started crawling down Akira's face for sure.

"Countless Devilmen threw away their humanity to throw themselves in with Satan and serve him." He said. "And countless demons ignored their humanity until it was too late, serving Satan. And all of the humans, they extinguished themselves out of fear of the demons. It wasn't pride that any of us lost, it was our hearts."

That and multiple limbs, of course.

He wiped his eyes and flashed Vegeta his terth. "When I win this, I'm going to make it all okay though. We just needed a second chance. You'd know about that. I'm looking forward to fighting you for it."

Vegeta, Bedroom

Vegeta couldn't help but flinch as he saw the tears dotting Akira's eyes. This sensitive soul was deemed fit for this competition? Considering the average power level, himself included, Akira must have at least matched his current, suppressed power.

He offered the boy another smirk, and lightly tapped his chest with a fist. It was pretty clear that fight-happy Vegeta was looking forward to that fight as well.

For now, there was one more thing he needed to take care of.

"Hey, Sidney Knight! You can hear me, can't you? Care to tell me how you've managed to suppress my powers? I can determine the why, but you're not going to tell me you wished on the Dragon Balls, so what is it? How did you accomplish such a feat?"

Ammy and Issun, Garden

"Heh. Well, I did say we'd show you some tricks, didn't I? We didn't even need to do that to win, but I guess furball wanted to show off." Issun boasted, though it was debatable if Amaterasu would have won the race without it. "There's a reason they call her Full Throttle Ammy."

Then that talking flower popped up, introducing himself. Issun's eye twitched. "I'm not a bug, dang it!" He leaped down to face Flowey, but Amaterasu was already in front of the flower, body tensed and lowered, eyes narrowed, slightly angry but not quite snarling. Something clicked, and Issun jumped back on her head.

"Wait, I remember now. You were talking about murdering people with that crazy lady with the ring, weren't you?" He scowled. "We may be stuck here together, but you aren't gonna kill anyone on our watch, you got that?"

Tenko Chabashira - Bedroom

Tenko's face took a concerned expression as she listened to the boy's description of his homeworld. Male or not, no one deserved to live what he went trough. She then decided to attempt to console him. "Hey, Akira? You don't need to beat yourself up for that, okay. A devilman is what you transformed into last time, right? If what you say about the others is right, that means the fact that you kept your humanity is already impressive." Tenko then had a great idea.

Her face brigthened up as she cheerily explained it to Akira. "In fact, the mean that you surpassed it only means that you can also become more than a degenerate! I think that you have the right mindset to become a follower of Neo-Aikido! And when you have mastered it, you will become capable of beating any demon that cross your way! So, do you agree to be my student?" The smile that Tenko showed to him was a genuine show of kindness, even tough it was a prideful one.

Akira right? Just....who is this Satan person you keep talking about? I can tell he was a villain but well, you do keep mentioning him."

Maestro Ionia Achtelnote Fails at Being Human
How are humans supposed to eat if things so easily start burning down the second you look away from them? What's next, would one of them burn to death for playing the clarinet too hard?
"Truth be told, I did get a little satisfaction out of seeing that machine woman scream in agony at the time, though I didn't realize it," Ionia said, leaning back in her chair, "because hearing someone scream in agony is very painful.
Ionia clutched at her ears harder, physically recoiling when Valkyrie begged for an answer and everyone else jumped in to scream fire and shoot water. Quick to recover, she started her own assault by asking in return "Then I don't care for waffles! If something is really that much of a hassle, then I won't eat it you naked woman!"

Elsa - Will Not Send Nudes; Bedroom

"I'll do it for anyone who asks, but i wouldn't go as far as to presume that everyone would want one." Elsa replied to Tenko. "But I don't look that old, do I?"

Jimmy's comments went unanswered, brushed off as just a young boy who (hopefully) didn't know much about actual romantic relationships. Not that Elsa did either, but she'd managed to glean information from Anna over the past year, so felt safe to assume her knowledge was greater. After all, teenagers didn't go around kissing each other, did they?

As the conversation continued around her, what she already suspected was confirmed. These people were like herself, in that they had supernatural abilities. The Prince, Vegeta, spoke of his great strength and ability to fly, while the young man in tattered clothing claimed he was possessed by a demon.

Alright, that one was a little scary. But if no permanent harm could come to them in this house, they had nothing to worry about, right?

Besides, it could be that he didn't understand his abilities. Many in the past had been quick to judge anything supernatural as a sign of the devil. Even Joan of Arc, a woman of God, had died accused of heresy.

And as they spoke even more, Vegeta told the tale of the end of his people, a spacefaring race given by his repetition of their galactic pedigree, as Akira told the tale of his.

It seemed Akira was a Devil opposed to Satan. A novel concept.

While Elsa could probably explain that Sidney Knight was making use of advanced technology, or who Satan was, she let the questions go to those they were directed to. Instead, she walked further into the bedroom, something that had been said catching her attention.

She arrived where Chun Li was sitting, and sat across from the young Asian woman, a concerned look on her face.

"You say that we're lacking in any privacy, that our captors are recording our every move. Surely they wouldn't record us in the bathrooms, right? They did say they were gender-segregated in the interests of privacy."

Sidney (Bedroom)

Suddenly, a blue pillar appeared next to Vegeta, vanishing a second later to reveal Sidney, who did not look particularly pleased to be speaking with Vegeta yet again.

"Technology. That's literally all I am allowed to tell you, the information is classified beyond that. Shock of all shocks, they don't feel the need to tell the people they captured how they're restraining their powers. But as I have already attempted to explain, our technology has advanced eons past even your own former Saiyan people. There is nothing that we cannot do with our technology."

Kitchen

Jack's reluctance to be used as a kitchen appliance did a 180, much like he physically did to "look" over to Valkyrie.

"Oh, mama," he said. "Yes ma'am!" He floated over to the griddle, expertly flipping pancake after pancake, while Magnus watched the sword's work in shock. What made him change his mind? That the girl called him cute? Who even calls a sword 'cute'? Wouldn't that just be an insult to him as a weapon? Magnus' many questions were interrupted by the outburst by the stove, with the waffle iron literally bursting into flames. Magnus could only watch the following kerfuffle, the screaming, and the quick dousing of the fire.

After a short pause, he spoke up. "Pancakes are done."


Bedroom

The arrival of Sidney caught Jimmy's attention who, while not a part of the conversation, did hear something he was wondering about.

"Hey, you," he said, walking up to the host. "Where's all the cameras? Aren't people supposed to be carrying them around and following us?"

Meanken Since: May, 2013
#194: Feb 15th 2018 at 11:19:51 AM

Sidney (Bedroom)

She turned to Jimmy. "Generally, we don't use the type of large cameras you have in mind nowadays. The one you saw me using earlier-"

As if on que, the camera floated into the room, focusing on a position to allow it to see both Sidney and Jimmy.

"-that one is my own personal camera, I like to use it so I have direct control over the angles. And as you saw earlier, it has other, secondary funtions, such as a shield generator powerful enough to block anything up to a nuclear weapon. That one cost a pretty penny, but it's more then worth the cost. Anyway, the house uses cameras built into the house walls, a system that lets it get any angle it wants."

She pressed a few buttons on the tablet, then looked at the girls in the room.

"By the way, the producers don't want me to tell you this, they're horny men who are hoping you're not going to realize it, but this room has cameras too, so I don't advise getting changed in this room. That curtain won't stop anyone from recording it. Use the bathrooms. They don't have cameras in the stalls or showers. Regulations. As long as you remember to close the door or curtain, no one will be able to see you."

"Th-thank you for putting that out," Valkyrie said to Corrin and Rinoa, exaggeratedly wiping her tear-filled eyes with her arm. All of the water they had blasted the stove with wicked off of her 'clothes' thanks to it being part of her mechanical body, and she slowly stood up.

"Well if you're going to be a meanie like that, then you'll never get to taste my special waffles until you apologize!" she shouted at Ionia. With a harumph, grabbed the waffle iron and started to turn around. "And I'm not a woman," she added as an aside. "I'm a sword."

Hovering towards the garbage, she threw the soaked and burned waffle-corpse into the trash, and then went over to her bowl.

"I'll make a special batch of waffles ♥ just for you two," she added to Rinoa and Corrin. She once again started putting large quantities of ingredients into the bowl, mixing them with a steady and machine-like precision.

"Good job! ❇ You're a natural!" she added to Magnus. "Now that the pancakes are done, I have eggs, bacon, and sausages on that other griddle, so that's a great start for now!"

"Satan was an angel—" Akira started and almost immediately caught himself. He couldn't assume they knew anything of what he was about to say. "Satan was an agent of God, the creator of the universe. Satan wanted to rule His kingdom and was expelled from it, wandering the universe until he found earth and the demons." Akira's expression literally darkened as the marks around his eyes deepened. "I can take satisfaction knowing that he tried to rise up and defeat God with an army of demons but came up short of an army in the end."


"I didn't talk about the other stuff because it's not your fucking business!" Akira snapped at the confession camera.

ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE of Akira and Ryo looking at one another fondly or intensely played for a moment.

"I am not ready to figure that shit out."


Akira was also not about to explain the specifics of humans, demons, and devilmen. It wasn't worth it. He wasn't sure about the "degenerate" comment though.

"I don't know if the will of a human is what prevents any degeneracy." He said to Tenko bluntly. "It's not that simple, but..." he sighed. He thought about the track. Akira absolutely understood athletics, at least.

"We'll both need to be stronger, and maybe you're right that Neo-Aikido has something for me." He flashed her his teeth again. "I'd be happy to be your student." He stepped past her to get at his closet. "Maybe they thought to bring my old track uniform here too."

Flowey- Garden

Inwardly, Flowey smirked. Yep, they were exactly the kind of self-righteous idiots that he imagined they were. But what else can you expect out of someone conceited enough to call themselves a god? Still, he maintened his transparent facade of good-nature.

"Golly, it's not very nice to call people "crazy" just because they don't share your values! What's so wrong with what we're planning? I mean, the guys we'll kill are going to be revived anyway, so it's not like it'll really matter. And trust me, dying is a very interesting experience."

Then he made a condencending smirk. His voice likewise changed to a more natural-sounding tone. "Plus, where do you think you are, exactly? The guys in charge aren't going to let you live in this place however you want. They'll put you in situations where you'll have no choice but to take away lives. Because in this world, it's kill or be killed. You can call yourself a god or an angel, it doesn't change the fact that you are at their mercy." Of course, he still intended to eventually kill these guys, but nobody said Flowey was an honest plant.

"And I call things as I see them. And right now, all I see before me are a tiny bug and a dirty mutt with delusions of grandeur."

004 surveyed his closet near his own bed, mixed feelings felt at his uniform being in there, along with the Super-Gun in its holdster. He thanked that he had more casual clothes there and removed his button up. This exposed his flesh tone robotic chest, which was swiftly covered by a dark blue turtle-neck. He'd been listening in on the ongoing conversation about privacy, the end of species and god.

"Can't speak for Akira's world, but I think the general idea would be consistent." He piped up, stepping away from his closet, talking to Estelle. "He's... a king of sorts, yes. The king of all kings, all powerful and all knowing... or so it is told" he explained more in an academic than fervent manner "I... have complicated beliefs about it myself."

Munsu, Bar

"...I see. Killing people for fun with your friend, that uh, sounds like a time. Doesn't sound boring!"

Well, that explanation only served to make things more confusing than ever. He'd have to ask someone who seemed at least somewhat normal, which probably ruled out the armored giant covered in skulls. Although Munsu thought he was beginning to understand just what sort of a person he was dealing with now - which was to say, a lunatic who murdered for her own amusement. That was going to be a problem. But calling her out now wasn't going to accomplish much, since it had been made very clear that they couldn't die here. He was pretty certain they'd be trying to kill each other sooner or later, even if it wasn't going to stick. He wasn't sure whether or not to correct Tira's assumption that he didn't kill anyone, which could hardly have been further from the truth. Then again, maybe there was a way he could turn her murderous nature to his advantage, if he was careful.

"Nah, I've killed plenty of people. A lot of them were trying to kill me first, but it doesn't really bother me. I honestly couldn't say why they picked someone like me. Maybe they think I'm a good survivor? I'm certainly adaptable."
