::So, Onni, you've cornered your cousin... and you find there are two of her.

And one is unzipping her back like it's a suit, as the demon Noriko climbs out.::

Comments

[becomeanwarrior]

They're... doing it by... trying to combine you two!?

[ That's the only conclusion he can draw from that. ]

[theheadmonarch]

::... The two go to a balcony to smoke.::

[becomeanwarrior]

Wait, duh, Storm - Shin vs Neo! They're trying to get you to... fight? And the two of you fighting will cause it???

C'mon - you can't just walk away from me, I'm doing my best here!

[theheadmonarch]

::Ponders... and taps something and slides her phone over to you, it's on the search page of a video site, with the top result being a video of the "Black Catcher" opening of Black Clover.::

[becomeanwarrior]

I'm not sure how this is still charades, but...

[ Taps it, watching, squinting. Oh jeez, I don't think this helps at all, but... ]

Black Catcher... Is it something about the visuals? Or is it the name...

Or is it the protagonist? Is it cancelling something else out that they want to do?

[the_deadlights]

::Shaking you hopelessly while mute.::

[becomeanwarrior]

Hey, don't blame me for being bad at charades when you're also bad at giving hints! You're supposed to be able to make it easier to solve, not harder...!

I swear, for being the same person you two have half the brainpower when you're in the same room! Can't you two put your heads together and give me an actual hint that makes SENSE!?

[ Gently grasping the skulls of both Norikos in frustrating and brings them together with a CLONK. >:< ]

[theheadmonarch]

::Onni, the universe tilts five steps to the left, and after the clonk, you see a pink haired Gyaru... cat(?) girl in place of where your cousin and her doppelganger used to be.::

[becomeanwarrior]

[ Oh sweet god in heaven what the fuck did I do. Oh god my head is suddenly pounding. What did I do. ]

...Nor...iko?

[theheadmonarch]

That's me, the cutest teenage Empress of Japan. Why do you look like a cat got your tongue?

::Blink blink.::

::That's definitely your cousin. Back in high school. Hair dyed pink. And if she insisted she was a cat girl. And definitely Gyaru coded.::

[becomeanwarrior]

[ Oh fuck. Ohhh fuck. Don't panic, Onni. Don't panic. ]

You should, uh. See for yourself.

[ Breathes onto thin air, fogging it up, as he rubs it clean with his sleeve as it manifests into a mirror to show your reflection back at you. ]

[theheadmonarch]

... Oh. At least we look like the cat's meow?

::Blink blink.::

[becomeanwarrior]

Isn't that the least of our worries!?

I'm still trying to figure out how to deal with a certain God-Empress from another timeline!

[theheadmonarch]

Well. You should be more concerned with the fact she's going to use the [qrzbaf] of their [Jnec-Nolff bs gur Vzzngrevhz] to consume our reality, starting with Earth.

[becomeanwarrior]

The hell is a-

[ Wait. Hold on. There's only a number of things that can be. Hold on. Think, you stupid detective!

Grabbing and shaking you. ]

She's going to use a queerz-baff, right? That's what you said?

[theheadmonarch]

No, I said [qrzbaf]. It's not an "A", it's "the". Plural.

[becomeanwarrior]

Don't confuse me now, cuz!! I'm onto something!

[ Points at you. ]

Queerz-baff.

[ Points at your phone. ]

Aisenburn. Babs. Queerz-baff.

Yes?

[theheadmonarch]

No. Aisenburn has nothing to do with [qrzbaf] except as a comparison point of the reality that you're dealing with!

[qrzbaf] is like the thing that took over the hotel.

[becomeanwarrior]

And what is that comparison point? I don't think you effectively communicated that either!

Right, right! queerz-baff! [ Pulls up phone. It's an image of Shiroko sucking down boba tea. ] Queerz-baff!

[theheadmonarch]

The comparison is that that world is a ["Znkvzhz"] in the same way Aisey is a ["Znkvzhz Shfvba"]. That's why I sung Heats and Storm, why are you so bad at this!? Do I need to sing Dragon too!?

That's not [Qrzbaf]. The thing you fought in that hotel is a [Qrzba]!

[becomeanwarrior]

The hell is a Zank-vz-herz? I get the Getter comparisons but I don't get what you mean by the rest of it!

I get Queerz-baff are Otherworlders, you airhead! That's what I was trying to establish! Shiroko's part otherworlder, if you've forgotten!

[theheadmonarch]

["Znkvzhz"] is why I sang Heats! THINK!

No, why would I remember that, that [Qrzba] inside her is never fronting!

[becomeanwarrior]

That's why I was asking for clarification! It's almost like I don't know half the leaps of logic you take, cuz! Ugggh! Okay, so, she's using Otherworlders to consume our world... okay, I don't know how she's directing them, but.

Well, you told me "Combiner" is wrong. "Fusion" doesn't have enough syllables... Zank-vis-herz... Zank-viz-herz...

[ Squints a bit. Then a lot more. Looking at you. Pulling up a picture of Aisenburn on the phone. Squinting. Looking back at you. ]

...You can't mean to tell me you mean 'Maximum'.

[theheadmonarch]

Ding ding ding, Ping Pong.

[becomeanwarrior]

[ Rears his head back and slams his whole noggin into yours. ]

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN BY THAT, YOU SUPER DOUBLE BIMBO?
