[Action] 010 - 4TH WALL

[fallenambitions]

...

[Alexei is standing at the entrance of CB1 and just...marveling at the large amount of people here today. Did whomever normally brings them here have some sort of malfunction?

Well he could just stay inside, but something tells him that it wouldn't have matter. He's off to two locations today, first to the battle dome and then to the orchard. With all these people he should make sure no one's badly tampering with the mikan trees]

Comments

/adds to your load

[infinitiasoul]

[When Alexei gets to the trees, he might notice a little girl reeeeaching up to try and pick a tangerine off the branches. She's quite short though, so she doesn't look like she's having much success...]

/dun curr

[fallenambitions]

[...Now who was that? And wingless as well. He walks over and picks the mikan fruit she had been trying to retrieve and offers it to her.]

[infinitiasoul]

[Sophie was so concentrated on getting that one fruit that she didn't notice Alexei come up at all. She blinks when he manages to retrieve the fruit so easily and takes it when he offers.]

Thank you...

[But despite her initial interest in the mikan, she's quickly distracted by the slight familiarity of the man, which she ponders as she stares (rather intently) at his face.]

[fallenambitions]

You're welcome. [Alexei unfortunately does not share the same recognition back with her, oblivious to her staring for the moment. Though he's sure she was around Luceti before...]

Are you a new arrival?

[infinitiasoul]

...A new arrival? [She's not quite sure what that means, although the fact that she's looking around at her surroundings does suggest that she realizes she's not in the same location that she was in before. Sophie ends her observations by looking back at Alexei and canting her head expectantly.]

[fallenambitions]

[...you vaguely remind him of a certain princess.] This is Luceti. You were brought here just like everyone else. [Though why she didn't have wings was a mystery]

[infinitiasoul]

Everyone else is here too? [Sophie perks up a bit at that statement because obviously "everyone else" translates into "all of her friends".]

Where are they...?

[fallenambitions]

They-...[Yea, he got that impression too, but he'll continue on the conversation]

Who exactly are you looking for?

[infinitiasoul]

Asbel and Cheria and Pascal and... Richard. [She sounds a tad unsure on that last name.]

[fallenambitions]

...Those names sound familiar. I've never met them personally, but I'm quite positive they're here.

[likeafinalboss]

Excuse me! Desco is looking for a final boss to slaughter. Do you know where she can find one?

[fallenambitions]

[He glances at the strange individual that was talking to him. Final boss...?]

What do you mean a final boss?

[likeafinalboss]

A final boss is the strongest force of destruction and calamity in the whole wide world.

Desco thought that you might be a final boss, but now she is not so sure...

[fallenambitions]

[...Sounds like she just described the Adephagos]

Unfortunately, the only thing that would match your description is still in my world.

[likeafinalboss]

R-really?! Then Desco is the final boss of this world by default!

[fallenambitions]

Eventhough I said that, not everyone here is from my world. A final boss from another world could be here.

[...why is he even having this conversation?] Why are you so determined to seek out this final boss? Be one?

[likeafinalboss]

Desco wants to become the final boss of this world, so first she must annihilate the competition.

[didyoublink]

[And just outside CB1, there is a statue.]

[fallenambitions]

[...ok. He sees the statue, but thinks nothing else of it. Probably the Malnosso adding some new renovations to the place for all he knew. Moving along now...]

[didyoublink]

[There's also a statue by the battledome, actually. Kinda looks like the same one. But hey, clearly two of a kind, right?]

[bossing]

[There's a man, dressed all nice and "fancy", waiting outside of the Battle Dome. And once Alexei catches his eye, which would be pretty instantaneously, he's gonna call him out in the most polite way possible.]

Hey, dork! Aren't you a little old to be playing dress-up? Know what, don't answer that. Just tell me where the fuck I am.

[fallenambitions]

[How polite.]

Luceti. [a short response he gets then.]

[bossing]

Wow, that tells me everything I needed to know. So grateful. [The sarcasm is strong with this one.] How about you fess up where this Luceti dump is so I can get the hell outta here.

[fallenambitions]

[...All right let's examine this man for a moment. Pompus, dress rather nicely, wingless as well. Wonder if he's seen any real action or just the type to sit in their fancy mansions?

Anyway, after one look at the man, he moves pass him, towards the battle dome.]

If you want information, come inside.

[bossing]

Long as I get answers. [He sighs, starting to follow Alexei inside.] I swear to god, if I get wrapped up in some fucking idiotic costume party with a ton of virgins...

[fallenambitions]

[He moves to one of the control panels]

There seems to have been some sort of malfunction in the system. You weren't meant to brought here, so I'll see if I can send you back and you can be on your way.

[setting level difficulty to hell-] You have a name of the place you were previously?

[bossing]

[That simple, huh?] Brought here? Some sort of teleporting bullshit involved? [Kinzie would be better about this.]

Steelport. Just toss me down to my tower, and we'll be square.

[fallenambitions]

Yes, that's exactly it. Sometimes people have difficulty grasping that concept, but that is how everyone arrives here, usually accidentally.

[He puts "Steelport" into the computer. He's not sure if it's the right location, but he doesn't really care.] The room with the teleportor back to Steelport is in this room here.

[The designated room lights up, and the door opens]

[bossing]

You sure you didn't fuck this up? [It's almost too easy. Nothing's ever this easy for him.]
