The Turned Tables

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Yes. Well, I don't know what to make of this place yet, but I'm really happy to have met you, Dr. Frankenstein. You and I have quite a bit in common and I have a feeling we'll both be good friends here.

Shoehorn then turns his attention to V.

Why, yes. That's the same one. How do you know Eri, I wonder?

[KungFuCutbug]

[Hercules pauses to think for a bit.]

“...V, tu as dit? May I make a suggestion, for once we're out of here? I know the two of us have... unsavory history with one another. But, according to your subordinate, I believe this is a rare instance where our goals align. The both of us want to grow powerful enough that we may destroy him and exact revenge for the wrongs he's personally inflicted onto us.” [He then takes a bold step forward towards V and host2, his glare twitching into a grin. Those with keen eyes might notice something's... off about his eyes all of a sudden. Like there's an encroaching darkness swirling in the corners of his eyes.] “So, what do you think of the possibility of us working together to accomplish that? We can combine our forces, and any power given to me from memories will also apply to you. We'll be unstoppable. And then, when all is said and done... the two of us can crush his skull under our feet and reduce him to a fine, insignificant dust. Qu'est-ce que tu penses?”

[wingedcatgirl]

Why, yes. That's the same one. How do you know Eri, I wonder?

I met Eri only briefly, but he made a very good impression.

“...V, tu as dit..."

V gives Hercules a predatory smirk. I'd be in favor of such an arrangement, yes.

[Caret]

[host2 also smirks at Herc.] A union of our powers sounds like a wonderful idea if it would accelerate the process of destroying him.

[Kennifer]

Helena smiles.

[KungFuCutbug]

[Upon hearing V and host2's approval, Herc lets out a triumphant laugh.] “Fantastique! We'll need to discuss more of this plan once we find out where we are. For now, though... the Fragments are glad to have your assistance.”

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Wait, we're working together?! I get to work together with some of you?! Woah!!!!!

[Cassie]

"Syo it seems that some seek to take dyown the one who first sowed the seeds of harvest...Pretty interesting." Glasya says, after managing to catch a cockroach to eat.

[wingedcatgirl]

Wait, we're working together?! I get to work together with some of you?! Woah!!!!!

Only if we get out of here alive. I suspect not all of us are going to.

[Dookie]

“So if it hasn't become obvious yet, you're all similar in a weird way. Any guesses to what that is?”

[PointMaid]

We're all bedeviled by evil women named Victoria?, Frankie said, sarcastically.

[KungFuCutbug]

“Everyone is an idiot except for me, V, and her subordinate?” [Herc answers, snickering.]

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

I'd be happy to work together with any of you. I must be inclined to warn you all however, if anyone tries to turn on me, I will not hesitate to defend myself, Shoehorn says as he pulls out a hunting knife from his boot. And just so you all know, I was the leader of a gang, so don't think I will take it lying down.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Shoehorn chuckles at Frankie's quip. Hilarious, too.

[PointMaid]

Oh, I'm willing to work with others as well. Especially for a good cause. But I don't think you'll find me so easy to take down. ...And I also have weaponry. She shows her tranquilizer gun.

[wingedcatgirl]

... I'll not be tipping my hand just yet, but suffice to say, I'm armed as well.

[Cassie]

"...We're nyall hosts of murdergames!" Glasya says, grinning cockily.

[PointMaid]

Shoehorn chuckles at Frankie's quip. Hilarious, too.

She grins. Thank you.

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

We Arch-Mages would be glad to assist you as well on your mission... After all... To get to Awe... You must get to their Dimension first. And we Arch-Mages have been working on doing just that!

But do be warned... If there's anyone that dare opposes us...

DeeDee pulls out their scythe staff, and its eye opens, revealing a quite deep red, reptilian visage...

We will NOT back down.

[KungFuCutbug]

[Herc glances around the room for a moment.] “Ah, are we showcasing our weaponry?” [He extends an arm and closes his eyes, seemingly concentrating on something. Soon, something manifests in his hand—an odd but nonetheless deadly weapon that resembles a hybrid between a pogo stick and a rapier. He then opens his eyes again and dramatically holds the sword by his side.] “I consider myself quite well-armed. Ne me teste pas.”

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Maria stares at the weapons, starry eyed. She seems too starstruck at the other hosts brandishing their cool weapons to do anything with the colorful penknife in her hand.

[Dookie]

"...We're nyall hosts of murdergames!" Glasya says, grinning cockily.

“Correct! You are all hosts of some form of what is considered a “Murdergame”, AKA you hosted or were the ringleader for a game or event that lead to the deaths of many thanks to others.”

[Cassie]

"NYA-HA!" The ket yells cheerfully, making a big jump.

[PointMaid]

...It's not my fault my employees were so clumsy and let themselves get bitten.

[Caret]

And I assume that you dragged us into here so you can use us as participants in your murdergame, correct?
