(The discussion thread is here
)
Welcome to HGS: Another Side Another Story. It is a roleplay spinoff for the Hunger Games Simulator forum game, akin to both the RP's in the Roleplaying section as well as the ITTs in Forum Games. It tells the story of the Hunger Games in the Arena of Panem, the nominators who sent the tributes, the tributes themselves both in and out of the Arena or even other people relevant to the Games. In addition, it also tells their stories beyond the Arena.
You can jump right in with any character, like your nominator self, your tributes, etc. The structure of this RP will be open-world. Don't worry about not being skilled/experienced enough or being new to RP'ing. Finally, ASAS accepts any skill level or RP style. Other than these, there are some important rules to note, which are:
- No godmodding will be allowed or tolerated here. The offending player will be given punishment depending on the severity.
- Please communicate anything important you plan on another player with the said player first. Don't just execute it without their consent.
- Don't be rude to other players, both out and in-universe. This extends to RP offenses like railroading, guilt-tripping, coercing, or other forms of forcing them.
- This RP is related to the Hunger Games Simulation:Beyond the Possibilities forum game. Thus it will have events based from that game, including the tributes. This means if you want to RP as tributes, please nominate them officially on the thread first, with misses not being counted. This has to be done after an incident with a player who hasn't joined the game itself yet.
- Since this RP is Loose Canon in relation to the main HGS thread, the host's interpretation of events isn't necessarily 100% canon. Every player has the right to deviate from what the host says and go with their own interpretations. If multiple players have their tributes involved in the same event(s), please communicate with each other so that you're on the same page regarding how you see them.
- This RP chronicles the lives of the nominators and their tributes behind the scenes. While dark plots are acceptable, the overall tone of the RP should be light-hearted and comedic. This RP is not a Cosmic Horror Story or action story about defeating evil. It is a Slice of Life comedy with some adventure to it, first and foremost. Our previous RP, Convergence, is not representative of the intended tone, and the grimdark tone of that RP is one of the main reasons it was retooled.
- Nominators and tributes alike can transform into Pokemon whenever they enter a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon World (but they can bypass this with certain items/methods or shapeshifting) or via other means outside it such as a season event, Transformation Trinkets, or shapeshifting. The players are free to choose the Pokéforms that best suit their characters and even give them color schemes outside the standard and Shiny colors, but there is a hard rule for this. If you want your character's Pokéform to be a Legendary, Mythical, or Ultra Beast, please ask the RP mods for approval. Outside the Arena, these Pokéforms are still OP, but we want to give leeway for tributes who theoretically can have them such as deities.
- Other rules are covered in the RP guides: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13414403220A81433600&page=1#comment-1

Here's my opening RP post:
Detective Gamechanger's Base
A sharp-dressed man in a green suit and yellow tie is standing by the entrance of the base. He is of average height and has whitish skin, though still a bit darker. He is Billy, one of the nominators and the organizer of the party.
Indeed, after the nominators' returned and settled their problems, they decide to have fun with a party. Billy also sent invites for all the other nominators out there, as well as basically anyone else, including tributes, non associated parties, interested nominators who haven't participate yet, or even those who just wants to hang out.
The place itself in the base is refurbished for party purposes. Fancy chairs and tables are set everywhere for people to relax, as well as put food and other objects for the latter. There's also various collections showcased, including those belonging to the Detective, like his classic cars. Various themes to the base are set too, including detective noir as GC would have preferred.
Billy is now awaiting for other guests to arrive. He is also ready to give them a pleasant surprise during the party pertaining to his nation.

Bale's base
Lemmy just stared at the scene, more confused than anything as to what happened. Naturally, Tokage also prepared to slash at Morgan but fortunately, Xoichi imprisoned him before he could.
"Oh! What are those funny guys? Do they turn people into balls?" he asked Xoichi.
The Morgrem looked more disappointed than anything at everything that has happened.
"...A cage. Really? You idiot, don't you know I could very well escape from that easily? And you... You claim you can't break down... What about that blue-haired girl with you? Maybe that'll be enough. You've started it. By indoctrinating Scipion and made him abandon us." he hissed.
"Stop. All of you. Or I punch you one by one." Onox suddenly growled, having enough of the mess. The Toxtricity approached the cage before breaking it easily. Instead of jumping at somebody, Morgan looked angrily at Onox, not very happy that he intervened.
"Please. Why should I?"
"I don't know. But you should. Everyone's staring at you. Morgan. Do it for the boss. You promised him no troubles. You're doing troubles." Onox stated.
"It's not my fault if I say hello and then everyone is pointing guns at me." Morgan said, still smirking.
"I've listened. You threatened her. You say hello when you greet people, not that you'll harm them. I understand you're angry at them but please. They can be nice. You promised the boss." Onox tried to resonate. Morgan looked at the sleeping Scipion and sighed, calming down.
"... Since when did your brain start to grow? Fine. You've won that one Onox, I did promise him that. Guess it doesn't hurt making a fool of yourself from time to time in public... This time, and only this time, I'll behave for Scipion's sake. As for the future... we'll see." he said, reluctantly accepting to stop messing around.
Onox approached Dave, visibly embarrassed by what happened. The Toxtricity visibly tried to felt bad instead of his boss
"I'm sorry. Ditto guy? My boss told me you're able to change forms like a Ditto, so you're like a space Ditto... Whatever... I... Well, Morgan doesn't like you. But I try. Please don't tell the boss about this, I don't want him to feel bad because of that. Don't be angry."
Morgan sat on a wall. He still intended to talk to 6k1, but decided to wait a bit for the tension to disappear, studying the other guests from afar.
Onox then smiled, having an idea. "I know! EVERYONE!, PET THE BOSS!" he yelled to everyone, willing to ease the tension. He proudly showed a still sleeping younger version of Scipion. At this point, the Zorua looked like an actually cute plush and it was hard to believe that he was the younger version of the infamous nominator.
Back with Fluttershy, Cerberus looked at her with curiosity. That pony... That stare reminded her of her own. Instead of backing away, she mimicked Fluttershy, trying to do the same stare while flaring her wings as well.
Meanwhile, Persephone said nothing as she watched Morgan, more amused than anything.
"Childs these days... 300 years ago, they were far more civilized. Qu'importe. It was lord Giratina who presented Scipion to me and asked me to raise him a bit. Back then, he was just as sadistic and easy to anger as today, but he was far shyer, kinder, and less pompous. He even started to practice for theatre! Giving his illusions, he was, and still is a good actor."
Suddenly, Marilyn started to play annoying music. Arthur was busy drinking, paying no attention to that. Persephone and Clyde were immune by this and watch with amusement for the former and confusion for the later the other's reactions. Onox was too dumb to notice it and Lemmy actually liked it.

"One last tango, 47."
"Yeah. Here's hopin' they don't fork things up when that time comes."
Lovely Legilimens
The others ignore Morgan's rants, even 6k1, Sans, and Power, who just came back from registering their acts. Onox then tells everyone to pet Scipion, but even if he looks cute as a Zorua, they still remain cautious about him.
"Don't touch his mane," 6k1 warns her guests on her earpiece, "it won't end well."
Fluttershy, meanwhile, just continues staring at Cerberus.
"Think you can scare me like that? Think again! And if you dare lay any of your heads on this Starble, I'm telling your owner!"
Mimi shakes in her sitter's hooves, but pouts at the Hydreigon the same way she did at the Dark Star back in the Recovery Room.
As Persephone watches Morgan's meltdown, she muses on how her son's a good actor.
"Pow-Pow liked being in plays, too!" says Heart, "though she preferred being the narrator instead."
"She took the acting role for a change one Hearth's Warming," adds Miranda, "but we had to bring her to her room when her cousin forgot his lines..."
"I heard that!" Power shouts from across the room. Loud music suddenly blares, and she draws up some earmuffs for herself and the others while they cover their ears, except for Sans.
"quite an earful for ya, eh? ehhh?"
"SANS!!!"
"I just want what everyone else has, that's all."
Dagded Dujardin
Annoying Music Begone
Daffy with earbuds, calmly walked to the source of the music, before he pushed the power button and shut it off.
Daffy: That takes care of it.
He then turned around and saw Bale come out to the main hall.
Daffy: Oh, you're here. Heh, you missed a lot, yappie boy.
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."
Lovely Legilimens
Power puts away her muffs and her unfinished drawings of the extra ones. "Thank Celestia that's over..."
"I would've lost my hearing right now!" says Miranda.
"At least I have treatment for ruptured eardrums..." says Heart.
6k1 approaches the host and says hi.
"Hey Bale, nice party we're having so far! If you don't mind me asking, how did the battle go?"
"I just want what everyone else has, that's all."
Dagded Dujardin
Battle
Bale was a bit reclutant to actually answer, but decided to do so.
Bale: It went well, luckily no one got hurt, thanks to the Riders disabling their weapon and the others defeating the Legion's members.
He then turned to Gale.
Bale: You know, even Gale helped out by fighting Grogar, that was mighty brave of him.
MG: Plus, it was funny to watch as Palpatine was sent flying.
Bale: Scipion did free Tabby but he got angry that we judged him for being a sadist and ranted about how he wanted to be a Nominator and a killer... Weirdo.
Warning
Xochi did not appreciate Onox's action of bending his bars but let him be after he calmed down Morgan.
Xochi: That's appreciated of you, Onox. But don't try again in the future, and if you threaten to punch anyone, we'll take lethal force with you as well. Now everyone go back to business.
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."
Diana Burnwood
Bale's base
Idiots. All of them. At least the Morgrem was slightly distracting. the Dark Star thought, looking angrily as Mimi pouted at Cerberus. The wild Hydreigon wasn't mad though. She was impressed by Fluttershy. It reminded her of how Persephone managed to catch her, minus the Mismagius's intellect and creepiness. The dragon growled and lowered her heads.
Suddenly Bale appeared. Cerberus started to smell a familiar scent. Another Hydreigon's scent. The big Hydreigon approached Bale and started to sniff at him.
Eventually, the loud music was stopped, thanks to Daffy's efforts.
"Thank goodness, at last someone is being useful here!" James complained, as usual.
Onox nodded at Xoichi.
"Okay. But I'm really good at punching people to calm them down. I could have tried to poison or electrify them, but my boss says it usually ends with people dying."
As for Scipion, some guests assembled around him to pet him. Mewtwo and Alex were amongst them although the legendary just wanted to humiliate the Pokémon, going as far as touching his mane.
Unsurprisingly, that was enough for Scipion to open his eyes.
"Uuughh... How long have I been asleep?"
"Boss!" Onox happily exclaimed. The Zorua looked at him shocked.
"... Why are you so big? Wait what kind of baby voice is that?? AND WHERE THE HELL ARE MY CLAWS???? ONOX!! A MIRROR!!"
The Toxtricity obeyed and took the first mirror he found, showing to Scipion that he became younger.
"WHAT THE FUCK??? MOM!!!!" the Zorua yelled in horror, causing Persephone to gracefully laugh. Aaron restrained himself from laughing while Tokage was on his guard, still fearing that Scipion might cause troubles while Lucian was still hiding behind him, afraid. That wasn't the case for the other Pokemons, with even Alex rolling on the floor, laughing like crazy.
"Serves you right, midget." Mewtwo added. Giegue looked amused at the situation while Lemmy paused the game again to laugh loudly.
Obviously, Scipion lost it and targeted Onox. But while he would have caused damages as a Zoroark, Persephone's potion also suppressed his void powers and most of his abilities. Scipion looked more silly than anything, his tiny paws only trying to hit Onox's legs. The Toxtricity looked at him confused.
"Boss? Are you doing a massage for me?"
"NO I'M NOT!! I... I..."
Scipion eventually gave up. Getting angry would put him nowhere. He shamefully tried to hide his head inside Onox's arms.
"Fuck... I look ridiculous in that form!!" he complained, trying to hide tears of shame.
"Well.. You can still bite people! And you're cute, boss."
The Zorua looked at him with tearful eyes.
"Am I?"
Onox nodded. That was enough to calm Scipion down, who chuckled.
"Fine. If that means I can fully enjoy the party and talk to everyone without causing troubles..."
Scipion sighed and climbed towards Onox's head, staying on it while avoiding the electric mane. That way, he'll still be "bigger" than most people. Scipion still looked angrily like Aaron, like if he was saying One word, you're dead.
"Anyways. I'm hungry." Scipion said before noticing the Switch. He smirked playfully when he saw that Lemmy also brought Super Smash Bros Ultimate with him. Ori then climbed on Scipion's head, also wanting to pet him. Surprisingly, Scipion accepted, and most shockingly did not get angry when the spirit touched his mane. That was a sign that for once the Zorua was ready for everyone, except the Rescue Squad, especially Aaron, to pet him anywhere.
Back in his corner, Morgan couldn't help but puff at the sight. At least he had to admit, Scipion looked more cute and harmless than anything. Satisfied that all was going well so far, Persephone turned back to the other moms (and Miranda).
"Ah yes. It should have been embarrassing for her. Scipion also had troubles with his first companions. I am sure he did cause some to your daughters and their friends, even before the Nightmare Fuel incident."
"One last tango, 47."
Lovely Legilimens
6k1 rolls her eyes. "I can't understand what's going on in his crazy mind, but glad that you all did well."
"And you gotta thank her and Twilight for sending reinforcements!" says Power.
Meanwhile, Cerberus leaves Fluttershy and Mimi alone.
"Shh... it's alright," the pegasus says while cuddling the Starble, "that big scary dragon's gone now."
Scipion then wakes up and gets annoyed by the other guests petting him. 6k1 and Power try not to laugh while Fluttershy approaches the Zorua to ruffle his mane.
"Aren't you adorable?" Fluttershy coos.
"Huh, I guess he's not so bad in this form," says 6k1.
"Still, I'd err with a side of caution."
Miranda and Heart also try stifling their giggles while Toriel thinks of letting Frisk pet Scipion, too. She'll still keep an eye on them, though...
"Troubles?" Toriel asks Persephone.
"With our children?" adds Heart.
"I don't recall him laying a claw on my kids before that incident..."
"Or mine either."
"But he still hurt them one way or another," says Miranda.
"What happened to him, by the way?"

Partying
Tabby sees Onox breaking Morgan out of the bars. She rolls her eyes in disgust that he didn't get what he deserved and goes back to playing Smash Bros. Then,her mind changes.
"Take over for me,Charlotte. This guy I'm playing as is easy to master."
"Okay?"
She goes to where he is sitting and flips him off.
"Go choke on Cat Feces,you son of a bitch."
Tabby walks off and then goes see what the commotion is about.
"Damn,he small. Probably more puntable than Morgan."
She steps back when he wakes up as do the others. She only laughs as he throws a tantrum and tries to attack Onox. She then walks back to see Charlotte again.
"Hey Charlie,did you win for me?"
"Yeah,surprisingly for my first time."
'Heheheh,thank you. Could I have the Joycons back please?"
"Okay but we should take turns."
"Yeah."
She then sees Scipion in the corner of her eye eyeing the switch.
"Well,here's come trouble."
"Oof."

Bale's base
The Zorua slowly relaxed. Scipion had to admit, it felt nice being at the center of attention without being hated by everyone and he felt good being petted like that. Scipion wasn't sure if this was how he truly felt, or if it was because his mind may have also turned into a more childish one. He unconsciously squeaked when Fluttershy called him adorable.
Back at the Switch, Mewtwo noticed that he was in this game.
"Interesting. I may try this thing later." he said to Giegue, seemingly disappointed by the lack of Mother characters.
"You seem upset."
"There isn't even Ninten in this game..." he sighed.
The Rescue Squad also noticed the game.
"Hey Aaron. Maybe we should play against Scipion in that." Alex whispered.
"I... don't think that's a good idea. I know there's a Lucario in that game, but I never played such things before."
"C'mon! Besides, I've heard there's a Charizard in that game." he laughed.
Persephone raised an eyebrow.
"Really? Even when he first stepped into Panem, before he was accepted as a nominator? That would be surprising, honestly."
The old witch drank a bit and smiled at Heart's question.
"Have you ever heard about the fountain of youth? This is basically what I gave to Scipion before coming here. His physical appearance and abilities are now younger. As for his mind... well I should not reveal everything, Ohohoho!"
Persephone sighed. "It took me some days to brew that potion and centuries to master this magic. You don't know how many people would be ready to sell their souls to me in order to keep their youth..."
"One last tango, 47."
Light and Hope
Dave and Fira say nothing to Morgan's rants, knowing that open emotion cannot fully suffice when dealing with a psychopath. They leave to find some food to eat.
Before they could, Onox briefly speaks to him in regards to Scipion. He nods as a gesture of respect. It seems the Toxtricity is an airhead, but no idiot, since he is more perceptive than the first glance lets on.
The two eat in silence, soon joined by the Heroes of Hyrule, their friends, Ninten's group, and the Bradley family. The Hero of the Wild, true to the glutton he is, eats quite a lot, drawing embarrassment from his Zelda and laughter from the others.
Meanwhile, Edward and Winry are still butting heads over something, while Alphonse, who had managed to get out from under their noses, are chatting with Roy and Major Armstrong. Riza and Geras, meanwhile, are standing guard in case of further escalation.
Behind the stages, the order for performances are decided. The Rainbooms are to go first, with four songs, followed by Sans, Power and 6k1, the DJ Pon-3s, then any other performances that will be assigned in any order they wish, and Linkin Park as the headlining act.
With the acts decided, the Rainbooms quickly enters the primary stage, the instruments they need already on stand-by, introduces themselves, and begins their performance. Their short act begins with "Rainbow Rocks".
After the song, and a short moment to change guitars, the next song begins: "Friendship Through the Ages".
Meanwhile, the DJ pony and her human counterpart are preparing a few remixes to go for their dual set.
Hope: "Let's go. We'll be together." Lightning: "I only know... that soon, we'll be together."
Dagded Dujardin
Eaters
Ryuzaki didn't contain himself as he grabbed as much of the food as he liked and left to eat in peace, while Alastor merely reached out for a plate of Jambalaya in the table. Daffy, Amethyst and Ryutaros were gorging on all the candy nonstop, much to everyone else's annoyance.
Charlie: Hey, those sweets are not just for you three!
Daffy: Excuse me, pretty lady. But how are you supposed to stop me? This is a civil and non-violent party after all, woohoo!
He then pulled out a bag from hammerspace and loaded it with almost all the candy and sweet food and ran off to eat in peace, much to everyone else's distress leaving Charlie angrily taking a single cupcake off the nearly empty section of the table. Meanwhile, Moroboshi ate his food in peace, not showing anything more than mild amusement at the events going on. He then heard someone arriving at the Base.
Moroboshi: Excuse me, if this Bale does not mind can anyone tell him there's a visitor coming here?
MG: Hmm, I have no idea who you are, but I'll answer the door.
Meanwhile at the table, Amethyst and Ryutaros tried to eat what they could after Daffy raided the candies and sweets.
Ryutaros: Not fair, that weird goose took all the food!
Amethyst: Well, just ask for more, it's simple.
Ryutaros: I guess you're right, you do know more than I do...
The two then saw the spectacle begin and Ryutaros sighed.
Ryutaros: Oh what I'd give for the other Imagin to be here, we're quite awesome singers ourselves.
Amethyst: Oh, you mean the other colored guys?
Ryutaros: Why yes, we're like a big family. Although Ryotaro's not been around for long.
Amethyst: Who is he?
Ryutaros: Well, he used to be the regular guy that transformed into Kamen Rider Den-O, but he's been busy with his own life, perhaps too much to have time for us Imagin and our adventures. We last saw him 2 years ago, but I wish we could spend more time together, he was the greatest.
Amethyst: Been there, pal. But worry not, I am sure that no matter the distance, he's still your friend and always will be.
Ryutaros: Thanks, that helped a lot.
Meanwhile MG walked to the door to receive the new attendee, and immediately recognized him.
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."
Lovely Legilimens
Heart nods at Persephone's explanation. "At least he's calmed down for the moment!"
"There are also age spells in Equestria," says Miranda, sipping some wine as well, "but only the highest-level unicorns can pull them off. Trixie was only able to warp Snips and Snails' ages because of the Alicorn Amulet."
"I'd like to become a kid again," says Toriel, "if only just for a day. Being a boss monster, I can't age if I don't have biological children to transfer my SOUL power to, but since Asriel is out there somewhere..."
6k1 and Power sit near Psyche and Ichi, respectively, and overhear the conversation about the Fountain of Youth.
"A de-aging potion?" asks Power. "Reminds me of that fanfic where Luna turned Celestia into a filly as a prank, but was forced to raise her because it was permanent for alicorns!"
"Heehee yep! And I remember nominating Babyfier for OT S70, and he turned Neo into a baby!"
The unicorn snorts, then whinnies when the Rainbooms go onstage. The other guests bring food to their tables and watch: Twilight, Fluttershy, and Mimi sit near Toriel, Miranda, and Heart while Frisk and Ralsei take another.
"Hey, I know this song!" says Twilight as she bops to "Rainbow Rocks". Fluttershy and Mimi also bop their heads to the rhythm, and when the former's human counterpart sings her lines in "Friendship Through the Ages", she sways her head.
"Aww, what a nice Friendship Song!" says Ralsei before singing along with them while Frisk just nods.
While the concert is ongoing, Sans thinks of going backstage to prepare his act, but just slacks off at his table.

Light and Hope
Dave and the others listen to the performance intently, enjoying the songs. Edward and Winry have stopped arguing at this point, and are now hugging, seemingly having reconciled their issue. Mustang smiles, fondly remembering an old friend. If only Hughes is still alive....
The Rainbooms then performs their song for the competition with the Crystal Prep Academy Shadowbolts, "Dance Magic", before capping off their short set with "Hope Shines Eternal". After that, the group thanks the guests before stepping down the stage.
"Ha! I'd like to see the lazy skeleton top that!" the human Rainbow Dash boasts once the group is offstage.
"This ain't a competition, Dash. But Ah do wonder what he'll do for his performance," Applejack replies in bemusement. The group smiles as they go towards the dining table for something to eat, talking to each other.

Lovely Legilimens
The Rainbooms sing their next song, and Twilight, Fluttershy, and Mimi go down to the dance floor and prance along, the Starble bouncing around as the lights flash. Frisk and Ralsei follow them there, while the parents and Miranda remain in their seats.
"Kids these days..." says Miranda. "I wish they could appreciate the songs of our time..."
"This song's my jam, though!" says Heart while listening to human!Pinkie's rap portion.
The band then sings their last song, and everyone applauds for them. As the others return to their seats, Twilight looks for her counterpart and asks her how she's doing. It's possible that she might not be the same Sci-Twi who fought in S80 or 94, but she doesn't mind that.
It's now Sans's turn to play.
"huh, wha? oh ok!"
He walks up to the stage, and Power stomps her hooves on the floor while 6k1, Toriel, Frisk, and Ralsei clap for him.
"heya guys! i'm sans, and i'm gonna play some of my favorite songs on a skeleton's favorite instrument!"
He pulls a trombone from nowhere and the rimshot sound plays on the speakers. Power and Toriel snicker.
"I'm not getting tired of that one!"
To Power's surprise, Sans plays his brother's theme first. Toriel claps along while Ralsei looks at him in confusion.

Magolor and Kirby sits on the theater where they listen to the songs, sitting right next to 6k1. After the Rainbooms' performance, Sans comes up and Magolor and Kirby clap their hands.
King Dedede approaches Mewtwo, Giegue and the other people playing the Switch. "What'cha playing?". Ness looks for Ninten, hearing that he is in the party. After encountering him, he introduces himself and Tracy.

Everyone reacts as usual to the stuffs. Cirno continues her antics with her fellow BPC members while freezing and eating few food, including an English beef. Meanwhile, Yukari is amused at Sans answer, before she says, "So I've also seen you at the Legion of Doom fight. I should say it was entertaining. For me, while I only dealt with their common soldiers in the end, I did use my danmaku and even my train at them."
Billy then notices the commotion, including Morgan being locked, which makes Billy satisfied as he hates what he did back in the fight and now. He even thinks that he's worse than Trevor for example. He then hears Bale saying that he can be the one who will run the school, so he answers to him, "I am fine with this arrangement Bale."
Next, Billy sees that Cerberus manages to calm down without attacks Arcturus, so he disengages his Stand. He then looks around to Arcturus, as his servants, George and Kayla, continue to guard Billy while only Kayla herself wanders around in the party. This time, Kayla greets Fira, "Hello Advisor Fira. My name is Kayla Farway, the other trusted servant of my boss, Billy. What do you think of this party so far Fira?"
As for Billy's tributes, they continue their antics too. Spongebob and Patrick continue watching the cartoons, being very excited by it until Daffy finishes it. They then have to watch the musical performances, being entertained by the prospect it. Spongebob even thinks of putting a performance, while Squidward has already prepared himself when there is an empty slot. Amiya also considers playing her violin to the live crowd, but she isn't confident in it yet. As for Jolyne, she continues playing Smash. While she has heard of the game back in her universe, she is actually not that familiar with it, but she tries picking a fighter that lines up best with her own fighting style: one that is heavily offense-oriented.
Suddenly, everyone sees that Scipion has reverted to a child form. When Onox comes to cool down the situation with Morgan first, then convinces everyone to pet him, Billy doesn't want to, as he is a serious person, plus Scipion is still dangerous. But the tributes don't think the same. They react in their own respective ways. In the end, Spongebob, Patrick, Narancia, Okuyasu, Polnareff, Caesar, Amiya, and Closure decide to approach Scipion to pet him, with Kal'tsit silently letting Amiya do it, suspecting it may be a bad idea as he is still a psychopath, but Amiya has to grow as a leader with her own choices, even if it's not a good one. Though Amiya also prepares her emotional manipulation power in case Scipion tries to attack her, hoping it can calm him down.
Then as Billy continues overhearing everyone's conversations and silently taking note of them, Marilyn plays her bad music. Billy is unaffected, but some of his tributes do. Fortunately, this eventually stops when the musical performances start. First are the ponies from Equestria, who put on performances that excites everyone. Arcturus meanwhile is very pumped up when hearing about it, dancing to the beats by stepping up his legs, jumping, and moving around.
Next, Sans plays Bonetrousle, which is still exciting for everyone. Cirno is even reminded a bit of her own theme, Tomboyish Girl in Love. Squidward and Spongebob meanwhile are both eyeing on the next free spots.

Eventually, the Rainbooms started to perform. Like Miranda, Persephone shook her head.
"Yes. Maybe if they had a harpsichord..." she sighed, before smiling again.
"Hmmm... I might also participate into those musical performances... "
Like the others, the Pokemons cheered for the Rainbooms, with Alex rivaling Link in terms of gluttony. Arthur raised an eyebrow when Sans pulled a trombone out of nowhere.
"...Sounds familiar."
"What?"
"Remember when you took saxophone's lessons and played horrible songs?"
"Excuse me? They were not horrible!" James protested.
"Sure." Arthur sighed before drinking beer again.
"Pfft... Anyways, how many drinks did you took since you've arrived?" James asked mockingly.
"Ten."
James growled. "...I don't know how you do to being sane while drinking so much."
Meanwhile, Scipion looked at Onox. He could felt that the Toxtricity was feeling bad.
"What's wrong?"
"...I wanna play. I wanna play on stage boss."
Scipion titled his head. "And? I don't see the problem. Pretty sure you could."
Onox looked down. "Yeah but... When I play, I'm creating electricity. And you say that it's bad for people..."
Scipion rolled his eyes and chuckled. It wasn't the first time this happened. Onox was very found of Metal and Punk music and would usually attempt to play some for Morgan and Scipion in the past. Except that the two Pokémons were forced to get far away from him to avoid being electrocuted, much to Onox's disappointment.
Except that this time, the nominator had a solution.
"Wait here. I'll be back soon." Scipion said.
"But boss! Your mom tol-"
"I know what I'm doing." the Zorua laughed before turning invisible with his illusions, leaving Bale's base. He eventually came back, carrying an electric guitar on his back.
"What's that?"
"I just stole this from an idiot in Panem. Try playing with this."
Intrigued, the Toxtricity scratched one string and gasped upon hearing the sound. It was exactly the same sound when he was playing on his scales.
"That way you should be able to perform without hurting someone."
Onox smiled wildly and violently hugged Scipion.
"Boss! Thank you so much!!"
"Gah! Careful, I'm a Zorua now! You're going to break my spine!"
Eventually, Onox left Scipion alone, focusing on learning the instrument in a corner. The Zorua approached the Switch.
"Oh, Mr. tiny Scipion! Wanna play with us? Mr. Mewtwo wants to play as well!"
Mewtwo looked down at Scipion but accepted that he joined the game. Aaron and Alex also joined, much to Scipion's anger.
"Ugh... You know what? I'm going to crush all of you." Scipion cackled, taking Ridley. Mewtwo said nothing and chose himself. Alex took Pokemon Trainer, deciding to play as Charizard only while Aaron played as Lucario. Aaron looked suspicously at his archenemy, still not trusting him.

"One last tango, 47."
Lovely Legilimens
While Sans catches his breath to prepare for his second act, Miranda asks Heart, "how does one play a brass instrument without a throat?"
"Don't question it, silly!" she replies. "Nothing makes sense in the Arena, remember?"
"Except... this isn't the Arena."
Heart winks and giggles. Microphone feedback then catches everyone's attention.
"my next song is dedicated to one of my friends here..." says Sans. A spotlight moves around the hall as the drumroll sound plays, and it lands on Toriel.
"Who... me?"
"yes you! this might be a wee bit emotional tho, so here goes..."
He takes a deep breath and plays Asgore's theme, with a brass accompaniment playing on the speakers as backup. Toriel cups her mouth and tears up.
"What's wrong?" Heart asks her.
"I'm fine... it's just that I'm still not ready to forgive my ex for what he did during the war..."
"You're not alone, Ms. Toriel..." says Miranda. "I also left my hubby... many years before Pow-Pow was born..."
"What happened, if you don't mind me asking?"
The teal pony feels a lump in her throat. "It's... personal..."
"I understand. At least for us, we're on good terms now. It'll take me a long time to move on from everything, though."
"As for me... I just hope that I'll never see him again."
While Sans continues playing, Power calls 6k1 over to go backstage. Once there, she tells her her plan.
"I'll be drawing a custom piano that's fitted for my hooves."
"I still wonder how Coloratura does it on a regular piano."
"Why are you asking that if nothing makes sense in the Arena?"
"I just want what everyone else has, that's all."

New Visitor
The new visitor revealed himself to be Tsukasa Kadoya, he was warmly greeted by MG, who was happy to see a familiar face.
MG: Oh hey, dude... Wait, you weren't even invited!
Tsukasa: Don't mind me, I came here for a quick look at the place, I heard a party was being held here.
He walked around and saw the spectacle on stage, smiling as he enjoyed what was going on, before walking towards Ryutaros and whispering something to him, Ryutaros was excited by it and ran to Xochi to request a music number following Power's.
Ryutaros: Heheh, our number will blow you guys' ears away!
Amethyst: Well, then I'll wait to see what you got.
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."
Kirby
Bale's Base
King Dedede arrives near the Switch and sees the others playing something. King Dedede proudly asks them about what game are they playing. Bandana Waddle Dee also arrives and asks them the same thing.

Game
Daffy quickly appeared in front of Dedede, practically teleporting to explain him the game.
Daffy: Well, you see, Big Bird. These guys here are playing a game known as Smash Brothers... Without you, and it is real fun.
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."
"Aww... yeah, I've been there. It sucks. Better luck next time. I'm sure you'll eventually get at least one."
