Nine-Nine Heart - Run 1

[idolpro]

[It's time for a new an exciting place, right? A land of adventure and fun and excitement!

Wait? Then why does this look like Tokyo-F. Like a Tokyo-F that has seen better days.

A dark purple haze has settled over the city, thick and suffocating, oppressive and heavy. The sky above is filled with yawning teeth and blinking eyes stare back at you. Buildings lie in tatters and their remains litter the landscape.

A few proud buildings still stand tall! The most prominent one among them - THE GAME TOWER. Though it is sporting more of an evil villain castle vibe than you remember. And it certainly used to be taller and not leaking out that purple smoke filling the air. Nonetheless it stands as a beacon in the city, the focal point in the ruin around you.

A voice echos in your head. "Find the Dark Master."

GAME START!]

Oh, come on. He's ....

..got absolutely zero redeeming qualities.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Reopen the door, mortal. It can be done.

[puzzlers]

[ he's trying not to make a scene, but he's doing his best not to cry. ]

T- Thanks.

[liftoft]

Ha! I like a guy who doesn't hold back when he wants somethin'!

[forgottenmercy]

[it's fine, he'll just assume evil 99 was Being Overly Grandiose.]

...you, ah, had a lot to mourn, didn't you.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

No, not really, but you all look a little shell shocked, but aren't crying or seem to have any new scars...

Please don't let me be the one to add more trauma to our overheaping plates.

[liftoft]

Oh, you know B? That's great! And yeah--Apparently where I come from I'm not just an astronaut, but the Ultimate Astronaut!

[puzzlers]

[ forgot a word in there, but we all knew who he was talking about. ]

Even though you're kind of the same person you're 1000x better than he is.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

I'm quite sure my patience can outlast yours.

[liftoft]

Huh, well--the fish doesn't really look big enough, but who knows how this shit works, maybe it'll work out! Let's try it!

[rollwithdisadvantage]

I see. You and your ultimate.

I know our world can be a little crazy, but then again so can yours.

[puzzlekeeper]

[ PLEASE. ]

This is the first time I haven't been able to tell if I actually died or not.

[ That's agreement btw, what the fuckity ]

[puzzlers]

I opened it once and that was the biggest mistake of my life. I refuse to do so again, especially when I have exactly what I want right there.

[ shoots a glance over his shoulder to king. ]

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Then provide it to me, and my rebirth will truly spell the end for those foolish Producers.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

The game is not over. And you all will pledge loyalty to me in time.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Looking at the smoking crater in the middle of the gaming table]

Everything died.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Of course. I'll try to deny it, but I will deserve it.

[Unfortunately, rocks falling is probably going to interfere with testing out that scientific theory]

[rollwithdisadvantage]

He perceives to be challenging. It is entertaining to watch him believe he can win.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

You're fine, CEO. Just fine. Look. Not a scratch.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Now aren't we playing role reversal. Didn't you chide him for punching his betters? And when it comes to betters I'm way above Exael.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Eloquent.

For the record, the fish probably wouldn't have worked.

[rollplayinghouse]

[You know you can put an arm around my shoulders and offer to teach me about card games anytime you want, babe]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Nine.

We are not overthrowing this godforsaken dump just for you to summon an even bigger asshat than who is ever running this joint.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Was worth a shot? Did you at least have fun?
