The Last Poster Wins! [V9]

[Bulbasaur]

Bulbasaur has been preparing for a side quest by himself, which explains his absence. He has finally preheated and is loaded with pizza rolls, so he sets off for the forest-that-needs-a-name.

[Sir Sivelos]

*Bulbasaur, the AntIvoId needs all the help it can get. You find yourself back on the Voidial Drydocks.*

Nightmare: Oh, I can. Shame that Image and those other Dark Writs have some sort of mental barrier around them. Funny thing is, I've met Image before… He came through the Rift once. Maybe I shouldn't have hurtled him through a Dimensional Hole?

Maybe or maybe not, he's still our enemy!

Nightmare: YOUR enemy. I'm only tagging along because I have nothing better to do. Also, you forced me to come along.

Okay, okay… Sorry. But can you help us?

Nightmare: You heard the Cueballs. Those things wield Star magic. Whether it hits my core or not… That's my kryptonite. I'm not taking any chances. I'm sitting out for this wave. Good luck. *NIGHTMARE vanishes.*

Okay then… *SIVELOS prepares himself for battle; he equips the THUNDER EDGE.*

*Nightmare gets a fiendish thought in his head; that the rest of the unit would be SO much easier with him, because they're assembling the Telescopers PERCISELY because they use STAR MAGIC; this would scare him off, preventing any abilities he has from coming into play and crippling the whole group when it turns out the rest of the units are DARK or PSIONIC in nature, foes he is DEFINITELY going to wreck.*

*Are you SURE you want to leave?*

Bulbasaur has been preparing for a side quest by himself, which explains his absence. He has finally preheated and is loaded with pizza rolls, so he sets off for the forest-that-needs-a-name.

*I am totally willing to hear out a sidequest thing. On the other hand, PERHAPS NOW IS NOT THE TIME, with hordes of enemies attempting to annihilate existence!*

*Are you SURE you want to do this?*

*Bulbasaur, the AntIvoId needs all the help it can get. You find yourself back on the Voidial Drydocks.*

*Oi, no bunnying him. I'm giving him a choice on the matter.*

*gives Sivelos Something Cold and Eerie*

Tazz: SCaE?! Dude! I hope you have more of those to share! That's good crafting material!

*Tazz is right. Most things around your level improve well with SOMETHING COLD AND EERIE.*

[Ganyu]

As a matter of fact, I do keep getting SCAE most of the time and other eldritch bits and pieces. I don't really have much use for them. *gives Tazz Something Cold and Eerie*

Nightmare: As much as I'd love to… Oh, fine. You convinced me. My plans are put on hold; I'm a sucker for this sort of stuff. Let's do this. *NIGHTMARE cracks his knuckles.*

Dark Mind: I trust your plan is coming along smoothly, then?

Nightmare: Oh, it is. But that's something for a later date... *NIGHTMARE makes a motion of locking his mouth with a key and then tossing it away*

Uh, plan?

Nightmare: What plan?

*SIVELOS blinks. For some reason, none of you can recall what Nightmare and Dark Mind were discussing.* What? Oh, right… Anyway, we have a wave to take out! Nightmare, you ready!?

Nightmare: Ready as I'll ever be.

Something Cold and Eerie for you too!

[Sir Sivelos]

Nightmare: So, what, are they going to piss around for a bit longer? Lovely, let me just do this...

*NIGHTMARE reaches in his robe, and pulls out some of the Monsters created by the HOLY NIGHTMARE CO. He places several HEAVY LOBSTERs around the area. HEAVY LOBSTERs are Very Fast Tanks. That's kind of it, nothing really interesting.*

Nightmare: A little more defense couldn't hurt, Recordmaster.

Tazz: Thank you!

*Tazz accepts one SOMETHING COLD AND EERIE.*

*As it turns out, that's a password for an instant death. You die and respawn.*

*You ready yourselves!*

Something Cold and Eerie for you too!

*You randomly secure a SPIRIT OF CHIRSTMAS for your gifts, which are ridiculously rare. It is a Legendary material item, bound to you. It's only used in Crafting the most rare and powerful items, or rather CHRISTMAS variations thereof. This might be something worth remembering in the future, even if you don't actually celebrate CHRISTMAS.*
