AMEN V: Rise of the Maggots

[Lord Magtok]

It actually involdved attempted murder more than a movie...

I'm still not entirely sure he didn't change anything important.

...Say, wasn't I right-handed before? Now I'm a lefty...:smallconfused:


*Saurous glaces at her, and then looks up at the cieling*

I wonder if it were possible to get several hundred thousand gold pieces...

*A massive bag of gold lands on the floor in front of the couch*

Sweet!

Wow. I wish all my stuff was fixed, and a concrete block fell on Saurous's head.

*The stuff is fixed, and a piece of concrete falls from above the head of a certain necromancer.*

[Vespe Ratavo]

The universe just gives up, and refuses to take any more paradox. The battle is transported to the troublemakers home....AMEN HQ.

The soldiers shrug, and continue fighting. A Space Marine shoots at Magtok.

[Saurous]

Ow...my skull. I wonder if I could get a Heal Critical Wounds potion....


.....

*Nothing happens*

Damn you, Karma!

*He falls forward, collapsing on the floor*

....could someone get me a potion? Or a bandaid? MC? Magtok? ....Ikari?

[Mr. Moon]

*pulls out scroll of Restore Greater Wounds and uses it on Saurous*

[Rex Idiotarum]

Kick'm when they're down!
* kicks Saurous *

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

*casts heal critical wounds twice on Saurous*

Oh, looks like I was beaten to it.

Wait a moment.

I REALLY WISH I HAD A DISPEL MAGIC SCROLL!

*dispel magic scroll falls from the sky*
*casts dispel magic on self*

[PirateMonk]

Seven pages? What have you been up to? And for that matter, what's going on right now? <Casts Intensified Cure Extra-Critical Barbarian Wounds on Saurous> Your lich arm fell off again.

[Lord Magtok]

....could someone get me a potion? Or a bandaid? MC? Magtok? ....Ikari?

You're kidding, right? Me? Help you? Like that'd ever happen. :smallbiggrin:

Just walk it off, you wimp.


A Space Marine shoots at Magtok.

*Magtok takes a hit to the chest, and flies into a wall. He then slides to the ground, unconscious and bleeding profusely.*

[Saurous]

*Stands back up off the ground*

...thanks, Moon, and everyone else that seemed to have healed me between the time I began posting, and the time I ended. And it seems that Rex kicked me in the shin. That wasn't very nice...

*He flops backwards onto the couch*


You're kidding, right? Me? Help you? Like that'd ever happen.

Just walk it off, you wimp.

I'm sorry, but half of my skull is not made out of metal.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*pulls out a sledgehammer and swing at Saurous's head*

[PirateMonk]

The golden-eyed clone cuts Magtok in half.

"You were mean to my friend Saurous!"

"You do know he's evil, right?"

[Mr. Moon]

*ties Cobra in a knot*

[Rex Idiotarum]

* Kicks Magtok *
Walk it off, wimp!

[PirateMonk]

No, really, what's going on?

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

The dispel magic should be kicking in by now.

Haha! Yes!

Now, why do I feel like I'm forgetting something?

Oh, yeah.

[Saurous]

*Grabs the sledgehammer, and slams it into the tied-up Ikari*

Anyone up for Crush-A-Cobra?

[Cobra_Ikari]

...*takes humanoid shape and crushes Saurous's hands*...

[Lord Magtok]

I'm sorry, but half of my skull is not made out of metal.

That's no excuse. I was just shot in my fleshy chest by a Space Marine, and flew into a wall. If I can stand and criticize you shortly after that, you can take a hit like a man too, you wimp.

*Swings a sledgehammer at Saurous's left kneecap.*

There. If you cry, I'll swing again even harder. If you scream, I'll shoot you. And if you ask for help, I'll kill you.


* Kicks Magtok *
Walk it off, wimp!

What the hell was that for?


The golden-eyed clone cuts Magtok in half.

*Dodges.*

[Mr. Moon]

That must be very uncumfertable, being a tied up humanoid. Must be bad on your spine.

*stabs Maggot* What? He didn't ask, I gave my help voluntarily.

[Cobra_Ikari]

...I untied myself, pay attention.

*blasts Saurous with fire and lightning*

[Vespe Ratavo]

A spartan hacks at Rex.

[Saurous]

...you think I haven't learned to take elemental damage like that by now, Cobra?

*Moves his leg out of the way of the sledgehamer, and does a round-house kick to Ikari's face*

[Lord Magtok]

*stabs Maggot* What? He didn't ask, I gave my help voluntarily

...He's still a wimp, and now there's a hole in my human eye because of you.

And it hurts. Ow.

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

*casts time stop and begins killing everything*

[Mr. Moon]

It's supposed to hurt, Maggot. That's the idea.

Edit: *Moon Called apears immune to the effects of Stop Time. Shestabs Fus.*

[Vespe Ratavo]

The Space Marines all fire at Fus.Weapon 1337, as they are immune to time stoppage.

[Lord Magtok]

*Is immune to time-magic, and runs away as Fus. begins his rampage.*


It's supposed to hurt, Maggot. That's the idea.

So is this. *Fires a magnum at MC's right arm.*

[Cobra_Ikari]

*takes the kick to the face without reacting*

...FOoL...

*obliterates Saurous's foot*

[Saurous]

...He's still a wimp, and now there's a hole in my human eye because of you.

And it hurts. Ow.

"Walk it off, you wimp." :smallamused:

*Is also immune to time-effecting magic, and gets limps away from Fus*

[PirateMonk]

<Is fast enough to move normally during the time stop and stab Fus.> Alright, I'll be torturing people to death at random until someone explains what's going on.

[Vespe Ratavo]

<Is fast enough to move normally during the time stop and stab Fus.> Alright, I'll be torturing people to death at random until someone explains what's going on.

Well, I went back in time to kill everyones great grandparents, but I failed and ended up at the Battle of Thermoplaye, but then Spartan-IIs and the Covenant and Space Marines and then we all came back here for pizza.

Several hundred pizzas falls in the middle of the floor. All the Marines, Tau, Eldar, Covenant, etc. stop fighting and go eat pizza.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*grabs a random marine, draws its soul out, and puts it on pizza*

[PirateMonk]

Oh. That's it? Meh. <Kills everyone>

[Vespe Ratavo]

Field of anti-godmodding. No one dies. Vespe grabs some pizza.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*throws flaming bolt at Vespe's pizza*

[Saurous]

Oh, look, pizza.

*Limps over, picks up a potion from a shelf with both crushed hand stubs, and drinks it. He then walks over to the pizza, both his foot and arms fixed. He puts some space marine blood on a piece*

[Lord Magtok]

"Walk it off, you wimp." :smallamused:

*Is also immune to time-effecting magic, and gets limps away from Fus*

*Shoots MC in the other arm, this time to get Saurous, his Happiness, Maur, and MC mad again.*

Wow...thats a lot of people who'll be filled with rage...:smalleek:

[Mr. Moon]

So is this. *Fires a magnum at MC's right arm.*

*Shoots MC in the other arm, this time to get Saurous, his Happiness, Maur, and MC mad again.*



*her arms are nearly blown off, and are bleeding profuesly* You just got me mad. *picks up her greatsword in her mouth and with an amazing show of neck muscels, procides to beat Maggot into a bloody pulp*

[Cobra_Ikari]

...huh. Magtok has a point.

*grabs MC, rips open a portal, throws her through it, and seals the portal before grabbing a pizza to eat*

[Vespe Ratavo]

Rage...hey! That's a good idea! A quick character sheet editing later...
vespe smash! grr!
He goes over and rage slashes Cobra.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*looks at Vespe*

...come now, let's be friends. I like you. Just not Saurous.

[Saurous]

...huh. Magtok has a point.

*grabs MC, rips open a portal, throws her through it, and seals the portal before grabbing a pizza to eat*


*Shoots MC in the other arm, this time to get Saurous, his Happiness, Maur, and MC mad again.*

Wow...thats a lot of people who'll be filled with rage...

......

I'm going to obliterate you both. :smallfurious:

[Rex Idiotarum]

[Lord Magtok]

Girrr, Magok!!!
*summons Dragon *


......

I'm going to obliterate you both.

And I'm going to count how many seconds it takes for me to die.

1...2...3...

[Vespe Ratavo]

ok. vespe be friends with snakey man. vespe want black olives on pizza. Black olives appear on Vespe's pizza. vespe also want greataxe! A greataxe appears on Vespe's pizza. yay!

[PirateMonk]

PirateMonk hurls an ICBINA Mk. II (MC's form) at Saurous.

"I'm not seriously expecting you to fall for it, but..."

[Mr. Moon]

((Have to go make supper, should be back shortly))

[Saurous]

*Draws a lightsaber and regular saber, and proceeds with shreding Magtok into small pieces. He blasts the shredded pieces several times*

((Or will you?))

[Cobra_Ikari]

[[ That's what you think. ;) ]]

No, Saurous, you won't, although I'm damn sure you'll try. But you can't obliterate me. Well...maybe you can, but definitely not in your current state. :)

[Vespe Ratavo]

vespe tired. vespe nap now. if talky man or shiny man or snakey man or piratemonky man or moon called lady or pogo man wake vespe, vespe crush. Vespe curls up with his greataxe and pizza on the couch.

[Rex Idiotarum]

Dragon cooks and eats Magtok's pieces, then finds it's way to the cloning lab.

[Lord Magtok]

Dragon cooks and eats Magtok's pieces, then finds it's way to the cloning lab.


*Draws a lightsaber and regular saber, and proceeds with shreding Magtok into small pieces. He blasts the shredded pieces several times*

Thank gods for decoys made of confetti. :smalltongue:

Wait...I'm still vulnerable to a second attack...:smalleek:

[Cobra_Ikari]

...aww...I remember my first pizza and greataxe party... :)

[Saurous]

Thank gods for decoys made of confetti. :smalltongue:

Wait...I'm still vulnerable to a second attack...:smalleek:

I know this will end with this being another decoy, but...

*Hurls lightsaber at this Magtok. It hits him between the eyes*

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

The Stargate no one ever noticed before suddenly activates, spins a bit, and 'flushes out', allowing a grizzled looking Fullbladder wearing clonetrooper armour and a grey cloak to enter the room from another planet I assume. He is followed by a small platoon of clone troopers, as well as a pair trolls wearing stormtrooper helmets. He appears to be carrying the armless, bloodied, unconscious body of MC.

"A portal opened up..... Moon flew out of it and hit me. I decided I'd better bring her back to Saurous. I can fix the arms."

Then he notices the grand cluster around him, and drops the girl to take up crossbow and lightsaber.

"Friends of ours?"

[Vespe Ratavo]

A litter of puppies crawls onto Vespe's sleeping body. They sleep on him.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*picks up MC*...oh, come on!

*rips open a chaotic dimensionhole and chucks her in*

[Lord Magtok]

*Hurls lightsaber at this Magtok. It hits him between the eyes*


Crap. You hit me right in the part of my brain made of cybernetics.

Everythings getting dark...and cold...I'm heading for a bright light...no, someone is leading me away from it...toawrds the darkness...*dies.*

*A new clone shows up.*

Wow...you really beat the crap out of him! I suppose I should try to avenge myself now.

*Draws a jet-black pistol engraved with odd little runes.*

Time to die, necromancer.

[Saurous]

*Saurous takes a step towards Fullbladder and the recently-dropped MC*

I guess you could say that. I suggest not dropping Moon, though. It'll only make her angrier when she wakes up. Need help fixing the arms?

...or not.

*Quickly follows through the dimensionhole*

[Vespe Ratavo]

((I'll be back in a little bit, dinner.))

[Lord Magtok]

*Quickly follows through the dimensionhole*

The coward's running away to save his mistress, huh?

Well I'll just wait here for him to return. *Loads pistol.*

[Cobra_Ikari]

...he's trying. The beauty of a chaotic dimensionhole is that he won't end up anywhere near her dimensionwise. *grins*

[Saurous]

*Saurous lands in the middle of a surreal world. The sun is apparently a giant glowing baby-head, and four odd creatures run around. One of them, a purple one with a purse, walks up to him*

Bah? :smallconfused:

...I really f***ing hate Ikari now...

*He prepares to kill some Teletubbies*

[Lord Magtok]

...he's trying. The beauty of a chaotic dimensionhole is that he won't end up anywhere near her dimensionwise. *grins*

Hehehe...teletubbies...his sanity is doomed. :smallbiggrin:

[Cobra_Ikari]

...hmm...although I guess I better make sure MC doesn't die...

*looks kindly at the dimensionhole, then steps into MC's dimension*

...good dimensionhole. Now make sure Saurous doesn't get here.

*chucks the hole a treat*

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

Fullbladder looks at the rift. As he does his scratches the stubbly chin he apparently returned with.

"I can fix that."

He picks up toolkit and begins quite literally fixing the rift.

[Saurous]

*Saurous pops back into AMEN, covered in bits of various kinds of fuzz*

Where. The. Hell. Is. Ikari. :smallfurious:

If he so much as harms MC in the slightest...

[Cobra_Ikari]

*the rift whimpers*

Dude...you just emasculated my rift!

[Lord Magtok]

What dimension is MC in? And why am I still here, when I could be doing something more fun?

*Wanders away to tinker with some android of mass destruction.*

[Cobra_Ikari]

Oh, right, I'm here for a reason...

*starts working on healing MC's wounds*

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

"This would be easier if I had a Bioverse Turtle. Or knew what the hell I was doing. Hey, Cassie! You're a chef, do what you can with this. It's bound to make an interesting pie."

Fullbladder sends the rift's privates to the kitchen.

[Saurous]

*Saurous abruptly appears next to Ikari, and looks down at Moon*

So...is this the only reason you kidnapped MC? So you could suck up to her? :smallannoyed:

[Rex Idiotarum]

Rex grabs Ikari and hurls him across the room and opens 27 portals, identical to the one MC is in.

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe wakes up and walks over to Rex. He just sort of pushes him. vespe bored.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*Saurous abruptly appears next to Ikari, and looks down at Moon*

So...is this the only reason you kidnapped MC? So you could suck up to her? :smallannoyed:

No, it was to piss you off. But killing relatives to anger someone isn't my style. She's rather innocent in this conflict, yeah?

[Lord Magtok]

No, it was to piss you off. But killing relatives to anger someone isn't my style. She's rather innocent in this conflict, yeah?

You're Good, aren't you? :smallannoyed:

*From the ceiling, Magtok draws a sniper rifle, and shoots both Cobra and Saurous with magical instant-kill munchkin rounds.

[Cobra_Ikari]

I'm Lawful, Magtok. Not good. I can follow a code of morals without being good. I mean, I just kidnapped someone.

[Lord Magtok]

And I just shot you for being good...and feel really stupid.

Well, at least I shot Saurous, too.

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe sighs and goes off to eat dinner.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*shrugs*...don't worry. As long as people exist in their current state, I can't be killed. :)

[Saurous]

No, it was to piss you off. But killing relatives to anger someone isn't my style. She's rather innocent in this conflict, yeah?

...she is.

*He puts a hand over the bullet wound*

Magtok, that was not very intelligent of you. You should know by now...

[PirateMonk]

The Stargate no one ever noticed before suddenly activates, spins a bit, and 'flushes out', allowing a grizzled looking Fullbladder wearing clonetrooper armour and a grey cloak to enter the room from another planet I assume. He is followed by a small platoon of clone troopers, as well as a pair trolls wearing stormtrooper helmets. He appears to be carrying the armless, bloodied, unconscious body of MC.

"A portal opened up..... Moon flew out of it and hit me. I decided I'd better bring her back to Saurous. I can fix the arms."

Then he notices the grand cluster around him, and drops the girl to take up crossbow and lightsaber.

"Friends of ours?"


We have a Stargate? :smallconfused: <Charges over to the DHD and opens a wormhole to a black hole>

[Mr. Moon]

((I'm... back?

...

By the gods, what have you people done?))

*Moon Called lies motionless, unconscious.

[Saurous]

((I didn't suggest that we kidnap you. *Glares at Ikari*))

So...I guess you didn't manage to heal her fully yet, Ikari?

[Cobra_Ikari]

...no, you interrupted me. *grabs medical tools and returns to work*

...and I'm betting the magnum shots to the arms did more for her condition that my little abduction.

[Lord Magtok]

((I didn't suggest that we kidnap you. *Glares at Ikari*))

So...I guess you didn't manage to heal her fully yet, Ikari?

*Accidently trips and tosses a dagger at MC. Accidently.*

...oops.

[Saurous]

...oh, right. I knew I was forgetting something...

*He hits Magtok with a negative energy blast*

...anyway I can help? Other than shutting up?

[Cobra_Ikari]

*waves his hand and sends the dagger through Saurous's spine*

Think nothing of your mistake, Magtok, I know where you wanted it to go.

[PirateMonk]

Dagger Thrower got cloned.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*sends dagger into Saurous's head*

...wow, you guys need to work on aiming...

[Saurous]

...there seems to be a knife lodged in my back.

*He tugs on the dagger, and pulls it out of his spine*

I'm surprised I'm still standing by this point...

*Saurous puts up a barrier around Ikari, himself, and Moon. He also catches the dagger before it hits him in the face*

[Lord Magtok]

...oh, right. I knew I was forgetting something...

*He hits Magtok with a negative energy blast*

...anyway I can help? Other than shutting up?

Ow...negative energy hurts.

*Shoots Cobra, Saurous, and MC with the enchanted, jet-black pistol crafted in Arr-El's version of hell.*

[Mr. Moon]

*Moon Called twiches as the dagger lands in her shoulder, but remains unconcious.*

[Saurous]

Ow...negative energy hurts.

*Shoots Cobra, Saurous, and MC with the enchanted, jet-black pistol crafted in Arr-El's version of hell.*

*Saurous turns to Magtok as the bullets bounce off the barrier*

Okay, you idiotic, psychopathic, Darth Vader wannabe. I'm getting tired of you constantly trying to ruin everything. Can you see through the fog that blocks all your rational thoughts for a second to stop attempting to kill us?

[Cobra_Ikari]

...ok, that should be everything. Tell me if she doesn't wake up in about 5 minutes.

*drops a clear chaos barrier between MC and everyone*

...what, like I'm giving her back? :P

*throws a grenade at Magtok*

[PirateMonk]

We have a Stargate? :smallconfused: <Charges over to the DHD and opens a wormhole to a black hole>

It's nice how cartoonish this place is. If you don't realize there's a wormhole to a black hole right there, you can't get sucked in.

[Cobra_Ikari]

I know it's there...I'm waiting for my dimensionhole to get hungry. He loves wormholes.

[Saurous]

It's nice how cartoonish this place is. If you don't realize there's a wormhole to a black hole right there, you can't get sucked in.

Of course I know it's there. I just choose to ignore the things that you cause. It's odd how it works most of the time.

[Mr. Moon]

((I feel rather like a prize right now...))

*Moon Called continues to lie there, but does begin to sleep talk* The cat is hungry.

[Cobra_Ikari]

Don't feel bad, MC, I don't think of you as a prize. You're a person. One whose abduction severely angers Saurous. And he's cute when he's mad. ;)

[Saurous]

Don't feel bad, MC, I don't think of you as a prize. You're a person. One whose abduction severely angers Saurous. And he's cute when he's mad. ;)

...'dunno if I should be angry about that, or freaked out. :smalleek:

I'm trying to avoid thinking like that, but Cobra's making that kind of hard at this point. I still think of you as a person rather than an object, though.

[Lord Magtok]

*Saurous turns to Magtok as the bullets bounce off the barrier*

Okay, you idiotic, psychopathic, Darth Vader wannabe. I'm getting tired of you constantly trying to ruin everything. Can you see through the fog that blocks all your rational thoughts for a second to stop attempting to kill us?

Why would I do that? Violence is more fun.

*Shoots everyone except self twice.*

[PirateMonk]

I'm bored. I'll go topple Magtok's empire in a drastically alternate universe (one where Magtok can actually build and maintain an empire without being overthrown by rebels every half hour :smallamused: ), if no one minds.

[Vespe Ratavo]

ow! shiny man hurt vespe! Vespe charges at Magtok from the dinner room and rages. He swings a greataxe at Maggies head.

@V: ;-) Kinky.

[Mr. Moon]

*Moon Called continues to spout random nonsence* Bananas are sexy...

[Lord Magtok]

ow! shiny man hurt vespe! Vespe charges at Magtok from the dinner room and rages. He swings a greataxe at Maggies head.

*Magtok's head rolls around the floor awhile, and comes to a stop by Fus.'s foot.*

*A much calmer, more passive Magtok clone steps forward, and with a medical kit, and a smile, bends down to help heal Moon Called.*

[Saurous]

...so the Chaos barrier went away?

*He takes a step towards Moon Called*

Eh, works for me.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*steps through the barrier, carrying an injection to clear MC's mind*

...wait...

*pulls out an aphrodisiac and a banana*

...which to choose? Ah, I'm not that evil.

*injects the mind-clearing substance*

[Lord Magtok]

*Magtok continues to aid in healing MC, as a part of his mind screams at him to stop what hes doing and hurt someone.*

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe lies down on the couch, playing catch with Magtoks head and the puppies.

[Saurous]

*Sighs, and slumps into a chair*

Why do I even bother to help when everyone else always tries to stop me or does it before me...

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

Did someone say "banana"?

[Lord Magtok]

*Sighs, and slumps into a chair*

Why do I even bother to help when everyone else always tries to stop me or does it before me...

*Tosses a small box in Saurous's direction.*

Open it, necromancer. It may cheer you up.

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe stands up. vespe want ice cream. with sprinkles. Vespe saunters off to the fridge. He opens it up, and he falls out frozen.
aaahhhhhhhhh! He runs away, while he (the frozen one) lays on the floor.

[Saurous]

*Tosses a small box in Saurous's direction.*

Open it, necromancer. It may cheer you up.

*He drops it onto the floor in front of him*

I'm not opening anything you give me. Knowing you it'll be a massive monster, or an energy blast, or some sort of self-hating mental disease.

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe calms down. vespe want box! He picks up and opens the box.

[Lord Magtok]

*He drops it onto the floor in front of him*

I'm not opening anything you give me. Knowing you it'll be a massive monster, or an energy blast, or some sort of self-hating mental disease.

I, Kotgam Drol of Arr-El, better known as Lord Magtok of AMEN, am not out to get you anymore. Inside that box is a thing made by your own son.

He wanted someone to give it to you, but he was busy with something. I volunteered to give it to you in his place.


He picks up and opens the box.

*Within is a crude drawing with the words "Mommy will get better, Dad. Don't feel sad." on it.*

[Vespe Ratavo]

vespe sad!! Vespe hands the box back to Saurous and cries on the floor.

[Saurous]

...I...I don't...care. :smallfrown:

*He walks to the stairs leading up to the roof*

I'll be up on the roof, thinking about commiting suicide. Just call if you need me, which I doubt. :smallannoyed:

*He heads up to the roof*

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

Really, did someone say "banana"?

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe walks up to the roof. don't kill yourself talky man. i'll miss you. talky mans son cares about talky man, so why does talky man want to kill talky man?

[Lord Magtok]

...I...I don't...care. :smallfrown:

*He walks to the stairs leading up to the roof*

I'll be up on the roof, thinking about commiting suicide. Just call if you need me, which I doubt. :smallannoyed:

*He heads up to the roof*

Do you help...or do you let him kill himself?

Let him die!

Help him!

Let him die!

Help! Die! Help Die! Die! Die!

Wait...Saurous, before you kill yourself, there's something I have to ask you. Answer the question, and I'll let you finish yourself off.

[Saurous]

Vespe walks up to the roof. don't kill yourself talky man. i'll miss you. talky mans son cares about talky man, so why does talky man want to kill talky man?

Because no one really cares, and I'm sure they all want me dead. Magtok, Fus, PM, Cobra. Heck, I'm sure even MC wishes I was gone.


Wait...Saurous, before you kill yourself, there's something I have to ask you. Answer the question, and I'll let you finish yourself off.

What?

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe's barbarian idiocy vanishes for a moment. Saurous, they don't really want you gone. They're just playing around with you. You need to look on the bright side of life. Look at this puppy. Vespe holds up a puppy. He's happy. He doesn't worry about what other people think about him, he just does his thing. You need to stop worrying so much about what other people think of you, and just do whatever you want to do. They don't hate you. You think they do. Besides, what about your son? ok, bye talky man. Vespe walks back down.

[Lord Magtok]

The question is... If a tree falls in a forest, and nobody is there to hear it, does it make a sound? Answer that, and I'll let you kill yourself.:smallamused:

He'll never be able to answer that, and even if he does, I'll have the thingy ready to save him by the time he comes up with an answer.

[Cobra_Ikari]

...I know how to stop this, Magtok.

Hey Saurous! If you die, I'll have an affair with MC!

[Saurous]

No, it doesn't. Can I shoot myself/jump off the building now?


...I know how to stop this, Magtok.

Hey Saurous! If you die, I'll have an affair with MC!

...I'm still gonna kill myself.

[Vespe Ratavo]

good idea snakey man! better than long diatribe that vespe did! but...it...not...working...

[Rex Idiotarum]

Magtok, sound is thew compression of air, so yes, a tree falls, sound is present, now what you have to ask yourself, is that with no witnesses of the event, did it occur?

[Vespe Ratavo]

no, because the observer effect applies, so henceforth it never happened until someone from the future observes it, silly pogo man. but more important, we have to stop talky man from killing talky man!

[Lord Magtok]

No, it doesn't. Can I shoot myself/jump off the building now?



...I'm still gonna kill myself.

That's great news, Saurous. :smallbiggrin:

So I suppose Maur is going to need someone to act as his father figure with you gone. Don't worry, I'll make sure Maur goes to that academy you wanted him to. :smallsmile:

Here is a gun. *Hands Saurous a pistol*

Now if you excuse me, I have far more important matters to attend to.

[Vespe Ratavo]

Nerul comes up from the ground and walks over to Saurous.

COOL, I'M GONNA LIKE EATING YOUR SOUL. AFTER TORTURING IT HORRIBLY BEYOND HUMAN COMPREHENSION FOR FORTY THOUSAND MILLENIA. SEE YOU IN HELL.

[Cobra_Ikari]

...so...if he still kills himself...is that a go ahead? Maybe he wants me to flirt with MC...:smallconfused:...

[Lord Magtok]

...so...if he still kills himself...is that a go ahead? Maybe he wants me to flirt with MC...:smallconfused:...

I say go for it! :smallbiggrin:

Meanwhile, I'm going to try to figure out where I should dump Saurous's body.

A dumpster is too average, maybe in front of Maur's room...yeah, that'd be great! I can't wait to see the look on his face! :smallamused:

[Saurous]

Yeah, go ahead, I-

*A second Saurous suddenly walks up onto the rooftop, drinking a soda*

Hello everyone. Why are you all gathered around Happiness?

Aww, shoot. I didn't think you would come up here.

Happiness, I told you to stop pretending to act like me. I'm not that depressing. :smallannoyed:

[Vespe Ratavo]

yay! talky man not kill talky man, not talky man not kill not talky man, not talky man not kill talky man, talky man not kill not talky man! Vespe cheers. He curls up on the couch and goes to sleep.

[Lord Magtok]

Yeah, go ahead, I-

*A second Saurous suddenly walks up onto the rooftop, drinking a soda*

Hello everyone. Why are you all gathered around Happiness?

Aww, shoot. I didn't think you would come up here.

Happiness, I told you to stop pretending to act like me. I'm not that depressing. :smallannoyed:

Damn it! I really thought he was finished!

[Cobra_Ikari]

...you all heard the go ahead, though! I have witnesses!

[Saurous]

...you all heard the go ahead, though! I have witnesses!

Happiness is a completely seperate person, though. He has no governing in my affairs.

But, I-

No, you don't. I rethink this, and then go back downstairs to check on MC, and all this crap happens...

[Lord Magtok]

...you all heard the go ahead, though! I have witnesses!

Yeah, and if Happiness is also an aspect of Saurous's love, then his approval means all of Saurous probably approves! Go get her, before he changes his mind!

[Cobra_Ikari]

Happiness is a completely seperate person, though. He has no governing in my affairs.

But, I-

No, you don't.

...I'm Lawful, Saurous. I know exactly who and what is considered to be able to govern your affairs. *victory dance*

...oh yeah. "Check". That's what you were doing. Creep. :P

[Saurous]

He. Is. Not. He is no longer part of my mind, while the aspects of love and happiness are. He was even removed from his place as "Love" before he was banished from my mind.

And I didn't mean "check" like that! I went back down to see if she had woken up yet!

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

Silly PM. We can't be wormhole'd into a black hole. We have no DHD! We have a fancy little remote control, set to work only under my voice command.

[Rex Idiotarum]

Screw it Cobra, just wait a week for the fight.

[Cobra_Ikari]

There's a fight in a week? no one told me...

[Lord Magtok]

He. Is. Not. He is no longer part of my mind, while the aspects of love and happiness are. He was even removed from his place as "Love" before he was banished from my mind.

And I didn't mean "check" like that! I went back down to see if she had woken up yet!

Yeah. Sure. I think I'm going to laugh hysterically and go downstairs to work on some robot thing now. General DeathPainSadismTorture isn't working probably.

[Rex Idiotarum]

Not one planned, at least, remember, I'm a Diviner.

[Saurous]

Yeah. Sure. I think I'm going to laugh hysterically and go downstairs to work on some robot thing now. General DeathPainSadismTorture isn't working probably.

You all disgust me.

I'm going back downstairs. Call if you need me. Oh, and do me a favor. Don't need me.

*He heads back downstairs, sitting in a chair near MC. He looks over at her, and then falls asleep in the chair*

[Rex Idiotarum]

Why is it that tieir love is creepier than ours, Magtok?

[Cobra_Ikari]

Disgust? You're the one who's...you know.

...right, well, I'm gonna go sit down here and work on dimensionholing in the rest of my Cobra brothers and sisters. *starts making markings on the floor*

[Saurous]

Disgust? You're the one who's...you know.

...right, well, I'm gonna go sit down here and work on dimensionholing in the rest of my Cobra brothers and sisters. *starts making markings on the floor*

I'm what? Because I actually have feeling for someone without having several perverted thoughts about them (shut up)?

And, great, more Cobras.

[Rex Idiotarum]

Watch it, * Rex bites into his hand and pours blood into the circle Cobra was drawing, it then forms into three symbols *

There, now continue with that.

[Cobra_Ikari]

Just keep telling yourself that, Saurous...

...*continues the ritual, wondering what Rex's addition will do*...

[Lord Magtok]

Why is it that tieir love is creepier than ours, Magtok?

Wait...wha-? :smalleek:

I had that clone killed long ago, Rex.

What the hell are you talking about? :smallconfused:

*Wanders off to a lab, and has a long philosophical discussion with Reborn.*

[Mr. Moon]

((Saurous, you really had me worried there...))

*Eventualy, Moon Called awakens*

Mhh? *she sits up, rubbing her eyes. She pauses midway through* My arms feel... funny. *then she remembers what had just happened* Oh. Right. I geuss Maggot gave me new arms? That's odd of him. I'm not Mecha.

*she notices Sarous next to her. She nudges him*

[Saurous]

((I actually worried myself. I almost made myself cry. I'm a wuss, I know))

*Saurous looks up, and smiles*

Well, it's good to see that you're awake again.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*finishes his drawing and rips open a portal*

Alright, now for the calling...

[Rex Idiotarum]

O! You'll find that very dangerous without Caster's blood.

[Cobra_Ikari]

...Caster? Rex...what did you do?

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

*wakes up from short nap*

Mmm...yawn.

*looks in a mirror*

...not again.
Wait, didn't I get rid of that cursed item? Yes, I did!

:eek:

[Cobra_Ikari]

...perfect!

*casts Lock Gender Other on Fus*

[Mr. Moon]

*Moon Called smiles, then notices something about her hands* I think I have two left hands... *begins to investigate her hands until she's satisfied that her hands are fine*

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

Fullbladder, wearing his clone armour and helmet, plus cloak, hangs upside down from nothing with his head about level with Fus's.

"Well hey there, good lookin'. Care for a baked confection?"

He then offers her an oatmeal/toffee cookie. It is, again, a wholesome cookie. He alos tries to hide his crossbow behind his upside-down back.

[Cobra_Ikari]

Sorry, MC, I'll grab you a real medic once I figure this thing out...

...wait...do we even have a Cobra medic? That's distressing, I'll have to talk to the guys about it...

[Saurous]

*Moon Called smiles, then notices something about her hands* I think I have two left hands... *begins to investigate her hands until she's satisfied that her hands are fine*

...yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if you did. It was Magtok and Ikari that helped heal you.

*His smile lessens quite a bit*

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

Fullbladder, wearing his clone armour and helmet, plus cloak, hangs upside down from nothing with his head about level with Fus's.

:smallredface:

Umm...sure.

*takes cookie*

[Rex Idiotarum]

Well, first of all, there was that prank that I did to Fus in hi-er sleep.

Ah, but this place is crawling with evil activities on a plane on connected with any others similar to it, in order for you to draw things here from somewhere else, you need a concentration of energy. Preferably in organic matter belonging to the energy's original container. A cast has more energy per drop, and a powerful caster like me, has a lot more energy. Infact, Caster's Blood as a material component can neglect the effects of an Antimagic field, among many spectacular things.

:smallbiggrin:

Heheheh. I don't care. No, really. I don't. And, you, are paranoid.

[Cobra_Ikari]

...yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if you did. It was Magtok and Ikari that helped heal you.

*His smile lessens quite a bit*

...hey, I hadn't intended for her to get shot, man! I did my best!

...so who here is a caster?

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

"Dammit, Ikari. Stand aside and let a real physician do his work!"

Fullbladder resumes right-side-upness, hits the floor running, and tends to Moon.

"Dammit, Jim, you stitched her up wrong!" he spouts at the snake.

Still wearing his armour, he begins to work.

"Well, the left arm's stitching is fine... the right needs work and there's some sort of metal in your Organic Jetpack. I believe it to be a bullet. You'll never fly again."

With that he removes his guantlets and begins stitching the conscious Moon's arm.

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

...hey, I hadn't intended for her to get shot, man! I did my best!



...so who here is a caster?

Me, Saurous, Rex, Moon (I think) and... I think that's it, really.

[Rex Idiotarum]

I'm one, but to avoid the inevitable bloodletting, I'm gone.
*Fades into a Red and Black Swirling portal. The Rubi Oculi stare out at any onlookers*

[Mr. Moon]

...yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if you did. It was Magtok and Ikari that helped heal you.

*His smile lessens quite a bit*

*Moon Called notes the frown with some worry* I know you don't like Maggot, but Cobra isn't that bad. Annoying, but that's about it.

[Saurous]

Um, Fullbladder, are you sure it's a good idea to operate on someone like that? When they are still conscious?


*Moon Called notes the frown with some worry* I know you don't like Maggot, but Cobra isn't that bad. Annoying, but that's about it.

Eh...I don't know why I do not trust Ikari. It's just something about him...

[Cobra_Ikari]

...ok...so...*pulls out vial and knife...let's start with Saur.

*chucks Saur some anaesthetic*...there's enough for you and MC.

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

"Excuse me, are you a Druid, a Field Medic of the Republic, a trained surgeon/general physician, and a psychotic scientist/wizard mix? I didn't think so. I know what I'm doin'."

[Cobra_Ikari]

*slashes Saur's hand and holds it over the vial*

[Saurous]

"Excuse me, are you a Druid, a Field Medic of the Republic, a trained surgeon/general physician, and a psychotic scientist/wizard mix? I didn't think so. I know what I'm doin'."

...no. I'm just the scientist/wizard mix, and took up advanced medical training from the Empire. And necromancy does allow for the learning of advanced surgery techniques.


...ok...so...*pulls out vial and knife...let's start with Saur.

*chucks Saur some anaesthetic*...there's enough for you and MC.

I suppose that I do not get a choice in having blood removed?

...guess not...

*Blood slowly drips down into the vial. Saurous cringes very little*

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

...perfect!

*casts Lock Gender Other on Fus*

Oh, no! What will I do? [/sarcasm]

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

...no. I'm just the scientist/wizard mix, and took up advanced medical training from the Empire. And necromancy does allow for the learning of advanced surgery techniques.


"So... what? You can hit the bodies largest organ--the skin--with the scalpel on the eighth try? Bloody StormMedics. I'll give you a point on the Necromancy, though. But I can find the best herbs for soothing headaches."

[Cobra_Ikari]

I suppose that I do not get a choice in having blood removed?

.....guess not....

...nope! *uses blood in summoning ritual*...

...I call...KITAN!


Oh, no! What will I do? [/sarcasm]

...be female?

[Saurous]

Great. I'll be taking my hand back now, if you don't mind.

*He pulls his hand away, and black streams of magic skitter up his arm. The streams seal the cut closed, as if it wasn't there*

[Cobra_Ikari]

*Kitan steps through the portal*

Welcome, brother!

*hugs*

[Saurous]

Wonderful, two cobra bretheren.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go get some sleep.

*He stands to leave, but instead slumps to the wall not very far from where Fullbladder is/was operating*

[Cobra_Ikari]

Oh, Kitan doesn't have an evil bone in his body. Actually...maybe this isn't the best place for him...

It's ok...

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

Finally Fullbladder finishes. He stands up, wiping his hands on his armour, leaving garish Moon-blood stains on the white material, and puts back on his guantlets.

"Told you I could fix it."

[Cobra_Ikari]

Should I go get something for the young lady?

*Ikari continues summoning*...who next?

[Saurous]

*Saurous, realizing that he never actually made it to his bed, stands back up in time to hear Fullbladder*

Yes, yes, you did. Do you think we should get anything for her or do anything?

[Cobra_Ikari]

*Kitan returns with a glass of water for MC*

Here you go, ma'am.

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

*walks into room, moving very choppy and laggy*

Can so
Can someone help me w
Can someone he
Help me wi
with lag?
Someone help m
Lag?

[Goblin Music]

*looks at Fus*

[Cobra_Ikari]

*stands up and goes to look at Fus*

*Kitan begins drawing something*

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

Fullbladder walks over and sticks his head in Fus's mouth, Clonetrooper helmet and all.

"Vocal cords seem fine.... Hey! Are those droids! I wonder if I was looking for them... You appear to be suffering from lag, miss."

He absently tosses a cookie to Moon Called, stapled to a handsome (*cough*) bill for services, and slowly lag-speaks to Fus that he can't do anything about Lag. Maybe Magtok can help the poor transgendered sap.

Then he offs to bed.

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

That su
sucks.
t sucks.

[Saurous]

*Saurous yawns, and heads for his room. He leaves behind a blanket for MC, and then goes to bed*

[Goblin Music]

*turns to look at Kitan*

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

Wait, I ha
I have an i
, I hav
an idea!

*reboots*

Keyboard error. Keyboard not recognized.

*logs in*

Wow, no lag anymore. I really should get my "computer" looked at.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*turns to GM*

May I help you?

Kitan, don't get too involved with these guys, they aren't your type, man...

[Goblin Music]

Hum.. oh! wha? *starts to fly RC chopper*

[Castaras]

Aww, I go to sleep earlier for once and I miss the best fight of time here. Man, I hate time zones.

Vespe uses Time Travel to go find Castaras' dad
Very difficult to find him y'know. He is hidden from time.

Fullbladder sends the rift's privates to the kitchen.
Hmm, extradimensional ingredients are pretty good for pies, they have an exotic taste, but they are very difficult to add anything but love potion to.

* Puts pie in oven *

...so who here is a caster?
I am one of the few true Pieomancers. I can manipulate pies with the darkest of magics, making deadly concotions that make even the hardiest taste-buds tingle.

[Cobra_Ikari]

You volunteered a little too late for my summoning, I'm afraid...

Would you like some help with your pie?

[Castaras]

Nah, I wasn't volunteering. I was informing.

And yes, some "help" would be useful, little snake.

* Grabs massive axe *

[Cobra_Ikari]

Please don't hurt my brother, Castaras. And what are you talking about, snake? He's quite obviously a human. So am I. :smallconfused:

[Castaras]

You look like a snake. :smallamused:

Actually, human bits might not work...they don't taste as nice as snake and most people don't like cannibalism.

[Cobra_Ikari]

Oh, I resumed human form last night.

*starts summoning Akahaji*

Is there anything I can do for you other than being an ingredient?

[Castaras]

I'm not being an ingredient. :smallannoyed:

[Cobra_Ikari]

Of course not! I meant me. You seemed to want me in your pie before you realized I wasn't a snake. Would you like some help with your piemaking, though?

*steps through the portal*

Monkies?

[Castaras]

Nah, I can pieomance things easily on me own.

And what is that that you've just summoned?

[Cobra_Ikari]

Alright, miss, but don't hesitate to let me know when I can help!

Another of my brothers...he's a little...off.

I lost my brain, so I got a monkey. Mmm, fairies!

[Castaras]

Two questions: How many brothers do you have, and how many are going to invade AMEN?

[Cobra_Ikari]

...nine or ten. Or so.

...and I can only summon one other one...the rest, I can never remember the summoning words for...

Cheese sandwich.

*nods*

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

So, wait. Ikari ISN'T a snake?

:smallconfused:

[Castaras]

Four Ikari brothers? Gonna be interesting.

@^ Seems like it.

[Cobra_Ikari]

Four Cobra brothers. I'm the only Ikari, thank you.

And I was never a snake. :P

Well, there was that one time...

Shut it, you.

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

Hey, Fus. Lookin' good! ;)

Then that comment isn't at all creepy then, if he's not a snake.

[Castaras]

Sibling rivalry - almost as laughable as the split personality syndromes that Magtok, Saurous, Fus, and a few others have.

[Cobra_Ikari]

*starts summoning his 3rd brother*

I want to quack like a duck. Quack. Quack. Mooooo...

[Castaras]

Hmm, whatever you say Ikari brother #2.

And Fus, why are you a girl?

[Cobra_Ikari]

It seems to involve some kind of magic?

I...am a STEALTHY ninja!

*steps through the portal and closes it*

[Castaras]

So who's the new one?

[Cobra_Ikari]

That's Hanmon, he's-

*punches Ikari hard*

...*wheeze*...a bit mean...

[Goblin Music]

RC car zips around AMEN

[Castaras]

Oooo, a fight?

* Summons popcorn *

[Reptilus]

"You wouldn't happen to have room for another member, would you?"

[Castaras]

Sure. Sign here, and here, and here, oh and here.

[Cult_of_the_Raven]

Raven comes in after a long chase through the woods. an Evildoers work is never done. i've got ten minutes before i have to go back out there and blow up some more random NPCs.

[Rex Idiotarum]

Well, Reptilus, that wouldn't matter, if you're evil, you'll assert yourself in, or become a preexisting member's bitch. It's what evil people do.

[Cobra_Ikari]

...I sense a disturbance in the Force...

[Goblin Music]

the RC car pops a wheelie.

[Lord Magtok]

Sibling rivalry - almost as laughable as the split personality syndromes that Magtok, Saurous, Fus, and a few others have.

I've killed all the other Magtoks off. Even a personality potion can't make me divide now.

[Castaras]

Shame, shame. I'll have to try other methods. Like this new thing I've created.

[Korith]

I've killed all the other Magtoks off. Even a personality potion can't make me divide now.

Ah, but which aspect of you is the best?


EDIT: Furthermore, if evil cannot exist without good...haven't you neutralized your evilness by eliminating the good?

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

Shame, shame. I'll have to try other methods. Like this new thing I've created.

Have you tried Metroids?

[Castaras]

Have you tried Metroids?

Not yet, I might try them later.

* Heads over to the cloning labs *

[Lord Magtok]

Have you tried Metroids?


Ah, but which aspect of you is the best?

EDIT: Furthermore, if evil cannot exist without good...haven't you neutralized your evilness by eliminating the good?

I merely wiped a few personifications from existence. Lets not get philosphical.

...Oh, and metroids hurt. Please don't use 'em. I still have a scar from my last Metroid encounter.

[Castaras]

* Walks out of cloning lab with vials of strange and weird substances. Heads for kitchen *

[Lord Magtok]

* Walks out of cloning lab with vials of strange and weird substances. Heads for kitchen *

I'm not going to be eating anything for the next few hours, now.

Hmm...I think I'll go visit EVIL and see what they're doing.

[Castaras]

Meh. I'm not adding this to food. Don't worry about it.

* Puts vials in kitchen *

I think in EVIL Deathcow's doing therapy.

[Goblin Music]

Can i come Mag? *readies RC chopper*

[Lord Magtok]

Can i come Mag? *readies RC chopper*

Go right ahead.

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe wakes up. He scritches on his character sheet. Ah, it's good to be a bard again. Or.. Vespe scritches on his sheet again. Gestalt! I am the BardBarian! Vespe celebrates this by running around and swinging his greataxe.

[Rex Idiotarum]

*Rex Snatches Vespe's Char-Sheet.*
Hm.. It says here, you died two turns ago. *writes -10 in the HP section*

[PirateMonk]

PM jumps in and activates the Stargate Nox-style. Replicators swarm through. He walks off.

[Vespe Ratavo]

Fool! This is GURPS! Now I just have to roll against my HT... *rolls a 3* Aha! Critical Success!

((GURPS is awesome. I have a 7 inch stack of 3rd edition books...I have no life.))

[Mr. Moon]

Moon Called walks in with her arms compleatly back to normal "Once again, I severly regret leaving my chambers." She says, after looking around.

[PirateMonk]

Fool! This is GURPS! Now I just have to roll against my HT... *rolls a 3* Aha! Critical Success!

[Vespe Ratavo]

Vespe goes back to sleep.

[Saurous]

...why do I even bother getting up every morning? WHY?

((*Does the "I got the Shivering Isles" dance*))

[Mr. Moon]

"That's... a very good question." Moon Called says, with a sigh.

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

PM jumps in and activates the Stargate Nox-style. Replicators swarm through. He walks off.

Time slows somehow as Fullbladder valiantly falls in battle, under a swarm of Replicators, while trying to defend his precious Stargate. Covered head to toe in the metal insects, he is pulled down even as he blasts them with his rifle and his crossbow.

His clone armour and all his weapons are then used to make more Replicators. The one made from his crossbow attains a sentience beyond the collective and lunges at people with it's strange, enchanted pink talon-legs.
