Guess J-Hope didn't want any Panda Cheese and paid the price for pushing Psycho Panda's Berserk Button
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."I'm just stuck wondering what that joke was now.
Time for a surprise round of "Help, I Don't Know These References!": first, what's the "impaled by a sentient sword" event referencing? Second, what's the "group of tributes try to stop a spinning, out of control concrete buffer" event a reference to?
At least True and Bandana Dee are here...

What is it, J-Hope? WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THIS THREAD!? WHADDAYA WANT!?
New Judgment side stories: "go back in time to kill Hitler" and "stop the concrete buffer!"
And sorry, Kaito, but I'll be too busy to host
"Leftover items still have value!"Malefor insulted the Boys so hard that they burned to death... Or he just burned them himself because he's a dragon after all.
"You're married like me, you know monstrosity can take many forms."The server should've died, hence the change in narration. This should be fixed next season.
Also, there are a lot of sentient weapons in fiction, not just sentient swords, but the Honedge line's the first to come to my mind.
"Rarity, are you okay? We gotta get you and your friends outta here soon!"I can’t think of any post-reboot tributes I had actually survive their games, so who’s sponsoring Hero?
Perhaps Marie really did revive Callie with the Dragon Balls?
What is this "signature" of which people speak?Espio, you idiot...
Part 3

The Simpsons Hit & Run - Never Trust A Snake

Just an eagle. (Feel free to PM me if you want to talk to me).Just a heads up Billy: GM Sniper II is a Mobile Suit, not a Transformer.
Edited by TheSilverShroud on Jul 9th 2019 at 4:28:53 AM
In my medical opinion the HEAVY IS DEAD!Omg, J-Hope's being chaotic online. XD
Isn't Hero a silent protagonist? (I haven't played Dragon Quest 11, so I dunno for sure.) Can't imagine a self-demonstrating page from him would be all that interesting...
What is this "signature" of which people speak?That mental image of Boba Fett ringing the bell at a pharmacy with a Sega Saturn in hand, tho. It's like Thanos doing the Smoulder or Snoke going down a Wet Banana slide all over again. Also, since Segata Sanshiro killed Boba in one of the early OG seasons, maybe he has that Saturn in order to avoid a repeat of that incident.
Boba Fett vs a Helicopter went down exactly as I'd have expected it to. Well, not the basket and the bread part, but the outcome was right.
Damn Vanya...
Also Ana getting banned on free ham sandwich day is a funny mental image.
"I'm Mary Poppins, Y'all!" - Yondu,20172016!Elliott's a furry dragon, so the event itself is right.
And we HGS regulars are in the same situation as the protag in Far From Noise. Let's talk to a sapient deer about the meaning of life before we fall off!

"Rarity, are you okay? We gotta get you and your friends outta here soon!"And here we see Snoop proving to the viewers at home who the top Dogg in the arena is.
Part 4
Battle Theme:
Trauma Center: Under The Knife 2 - Encroaching Shadows
- Pumbaa encounters 1977!Elliott. For some reason, he proceeds to sing Aloha O'e, in deep voice as he is a male boar, to the dragon, who seems to enjoy it.
- Nyusha finds a LifeStraw somewhere in the Arena, along with a description for it. She soon decided to test the product, by drinking from random water. She tries to avoid dirty water still, but she does think random clear water from the terrain still potentially have bacteria or chemicals, so she puts the product to the test in one of them. She stays healthy after doing it and doesn't get sick.
- Stonks Man tries to kill a tribute. He wanders into Shunt's camp, another CPZ, and shoots energy arrows at him. Shunt's plow manages to withstand it, however, and he is able to move faster than Stonks Man, pushing the Stonks Man into a nearby pit that looks similar to the Robot Wars pit, that Stonks Man is unable to escape from due to the depth and because Shunt also hit one of Stonks Man's legs earlier with his axe, before he presses a button that looks similar to the button from Robot Wars. The pit immediately lets out an intense airblast, launching Stonks Man up and into the Arena forcefield, electrocuting him to death before his dead body lands.
- Meanwhile, 2016!Elliott decides to train parkour with Shunt's fellow house robot, Matilda. 2016!Elliott is able to traverse the course quite easily with the help of his wings. But Matilda miscalculated the distance of the jump, and falls to a very deep hole, knocking her removable link out, meaning she died.
- The HGS Discord meets Masaharu Kaito, and asks him to lend him a hand. However, Masaharu Kaito takes this literally, and gives the Discord Silent Bob's arm, horrifying the Discord. It turns out that few hours before, Masaharu Kaito got into a fight with Silent Bob, killing him easily with his fighting skill and newfound metahuman power. One of his powered punches also happened to sever Silent Bob's arm.
- Hero is unable to find food and gets hungry, despite having a Mobile Suit to traverse the arena. However, he then finds a chicken, with golden eggs on it. He then quickly kills the chicken, before cooking and eating it, as he is more focused on getting something to eat. He even tries to cook the eggs by cracking it, but fails as it's pure gold.
- GM Sniper II and Me get into a contest of who is the biggest badass. Somehow, Me is able to pull off many impressive stunts despite being small. GM Sniper II manages to come close too, being a Mobile Suit, but in the end, the Mobile Suit runs out of power and passes out from the exertion, but the backup battery of the bot switches on immediately. The Mobile Suit soon recharges back somewhere
- GG Gorilla crawls into a bonfire to warm himself, as his legs are still broken from Vanya's attack. However, the bonfire quickly grows out of control, and lits GG Gorilla on fire. GG Gorilla soon has to pee on himself to put out the fire, doing it succesfully.
- J-Hope, after being released from prison and recovering some of his hearing, finds Banjo and Kazooie in the Arena. He immediately uses the bandages he carries with him to bandage their faces, covering their eyes and blinding them. After J-Hope left, however, Banjo and Kazooie pretend to be mummies, scaring some tributes who fall for it.
- Ana manages to learn the White Dragon Breath spell somewhere between the previous night and this day. She soon gets seen by Malefor, who immediately tries to kill her. Ana reacts by casting the spell immediately from a distance. Spiked crystals immediately form on the ground on straight line, blocking Malefor's attack, before some of them impale Malefor. However, the spell does something unusual and special that is not normal to this spell. Malefor's body transforms into a crystal immediately, killing him as he is turn inanimate. Ana soon leaves Malefor, who becomes a crystal statue in the Arena.
- Reksio finds three orbs while wandering around the Arena. He soon tries to pick one of them, curious about it. Unfortunately for him, the orb he touches immediately turns into a black hole of the same size. The black hole immediately sucks everything around it, including Reksio, who gets painfully stretched arm first, while time is dilated for him, before his whole body gets torn apart by the huge gravity. The black hole soon disappeared after that, leaving just a big crater shaped hole in the part of the Arena where Reksio died.
- The Plaguebearer is in a library where he reads books. He soon finds two which interests him despite of him being a Plague doctor. They are books about Star Wars and Doctor Who. After reading both, he immediately works on a detailed thesis, which says that Boba Fett is possibly a Time Lord.
- Nero Bride meets the same Snowclone who Volk tried to bribe before. She reads his mind, and yet she only reads the part that he is the replacement for the previous President Snow. Since Nero Bride was revived before after her death, she sympathized with him, and the Snowclone befriends her in return.
- Takayuki Yagami finds another time machine, different from the one he used to kill Hitler alongside Banjo and Kazooie. He tried to test it too. Unfortunately for him, the machine is flawed, and few seconds later, he returns as a preteen, being confused by what happen, before becoming an old man when the machine gets him in again, and then a baby when the machine sucks him in again. He finally returns to normal, before remarking that he feels that his pants is wet, and wondering if it was by his old self or baby self.
- Joe Cool finds a Gunpla model kit, which he tries to assemble as he thinks Gunplas are cool. He keeps working on it without reading the instructions, and the result comes out as botched.
- Psycho Panda is wandering the arena, reaching the big hole where Reksio once was. Suddenly, a ghost appeared, and the full form of the ghost is then revealed as Reksio's mangled body. Psycho Panda is so spooked by it that he has a heart attack and died in few minutes, his dead body falling into the hole.
- Deceit and Snoop Dogg are both inside a secure glass chamber. They then watch the rabid Vanya wandering and seeing them mindless. They then stare at her, before she tries to reach for the glass, forming a middle finger in the process. They then wait out as Vanya scurries away from them.
- Volk tries to pick a spoon in the Arena. However, the spoon turns out to be magical, and it transforms Volk into an antromorphic cat instead. He soon sees a reflection of his new self in a mirror, and runs away scared.
- The HGS:BTP Thread, discovering Suga is J-Hope's friend, tries to attack Suga for what his friend did. The Thread fires a shrink ray at him. However, it hits Suga's dog tag in his chest, and it gets deflected back at the Thread, shrinking it instead.
- Maleficient starts to reflect on her situation, despite ruling Hell, after she saw the events happening in the Games. Eventually, she becomes an anti-nihilist, and strives to make the demons in Hell and fellow villains live worthwhile.
- Akuma finds himself in a convulated situation. He gets thrown into a mysterious, out of dimension realm where the physics are chaotic as a consequence of Reksio's orb causing spatial distortion, making a rift that hits Akuma. After being confused by his situation, Akuma manages to figure it out, before escaping from the realm.
- Joe Cool sees Suga singing a song, being able to control his sonic skills now. Joe Cool, wanting to be the cooler guy and perform instead, immediately goes up the stage and kicks Suga in the groin, causing him to scream and release his skill. Suga soon stumbles away while in pain.
- Pumbaa and 1977!Elliott, for some reason, decided to imitate robots. They imitate their movement and action, as well as do Mr. Krabs robot dance.
- Masaharu Kaito finds The Plaguebearer, before singing Friday to him for 50 minutes, after The Plaguebearer gets himself trapped. Masaharu Kaito sings badly, and after 50 minutes, apologizes to The Plaguebearer for it, before going away
- Nyusha and Me have a thumb wrestling contest. Despite of Me's small size, Me wins as Nyusha is not very physically skilled
- 2016!Elliott gets spotted by Nero Bride, who tries to bring him down, despite making peace with the 1977!Elliott. 2016!Elliott soon sees a baseball flying, kicking it with his tail. The baseball gets shot strongly into Nero Bride's face, stunning her for few seconds as 2016!Elliott camouflages and escapes
- The HGS Discord reveals itself that is a reincarnation of one of the original Hunger Games tribute, Peeta Mellark.
- Vanya, still rabid, sees a rat. Unable to control her spell, she uses her magic, which also improves being uncontrolled, to turn the rat into what happens to be her favorite food while hunting it. She then eats it and seems to enjoy it.
- Ana and GM Sniper II gets into a heated argument after Ana insults Gundam. GM Sniper II is very enraged after Ana repeatedly insults and make fun of Gundam in the argument. However, rather than killing her, the Mobile Suit flies away from her instead.
- Hero manages to corner Volk with his Mobile Suit, before forcing him to dance, saying that he'll spare him if he entertains him, but he'll kill him if he either refuses to dance or bores him in the dance. Volk is soon forced to do the chicken dance, entertaining Hero enough that he spares him and leaves
- The HGS:BTP Thread finds Shunt. Carrying a Master Ball, it immediately throws the ball at the house robot, capturing Shunt like a Pokemon easily. The Thread soon can control Shunt as it catches it.
- J-Hope finds Takayuki Yagami. After his stint with attacking Banjo and Kazooie with bandages, he asks Takayuki Yagami if he likes BTS. He said he doesn't, and J-Hope responds by killing Takayuki Yagami, pushing him off a cliff. However, Akuma then finds Takayuki at the bottom of the cliff, and carrying a reviving item he got from the Arena, he revives Takayuki as he is a big fan of Yakuza.
- Boba Fett finds a spellbook. Reading the contents of it, he learns how to turn his body to a different material and stay alive, much like with carbonite. But he is also able to move too while transformed. Maleficient soon sees him, and try to kill him, thinking he is a hero, as she wants to provide happiness for villains. However, Boba Fett turns his body to fire proof steel, making it tough against Maleficient's attacks. He soon escapes from her and survives.
- Deceit, hearing about what happened to GG Gorilla, laughs at him. However, this angers GG Gorilla, who proceeds to pull Deceit despite being injured, and drags him to the top of a mountain and into a cliff, in full view of all the tributes who are still alive. He then gives Deceit a rough wedgie in front of every tributes.
- Despite Matilda and Volk agreeing to eat Banjo and Kazooie, they don't carry with it, as one of them is dead and the other is not doing it yet. Ironically however, Banjo and Kazooie themselves later try to eat Snoop Dogg, after accidentally smoking some weed and seeing Snoop Dogg as a meat. Snoop Dogg, however, escapes from them by blowing weed smoke as smokescreen, as well as to distract them.
Fallen Tributes◊: Stonks Man, Matilda, Silent Bob, Malefor, Reksio, Psycho Panda
Just an eagle. (Feel free to PM me if you want to talk to me).Is it just me, or does this thread have less pages than it's supposed to?
Anyway, what the hell, J-Hope? Have some respect for non-ARMYs, geez.
Of course, Pumbaa would be friends with one of the Elliotts. They're Disney characters!
And if you're wondering why my text is like this, it's because we accidentally shrunk ourselves.
"Rarity, are you okay? We gotta get you and your friends outta here soon!"Obviously Malefor had to die like in his source material.
Also Maleficent conquering Hell ? The title of "mistress of all evil" makes perfect sense now.
"You're married like me, you know monstrosity can take many forms."
