Drink Machine Requiem
As usual, the black drink machine sits in an alley next to a stack of styrofoam cups. The sign on the side says, "Type anything, get anything!" There is a keypad to input both letters and numbers.
[Teddie runs up and inspects the nachine.] Ah yes, a vending machine, great. [He types "something that helps someone remember stuff" and patiently waits.]
Ooc: machine*
*In A flash of white flames the sin known as Hubris appears before the humble drink machine.* Only the best drink In the world is worthy of me. So I demand your finest drink...one that is perfect in every way. *Hubris types in the phrase "PERFECT" into the machine.*
At Teddie's command, a light gray mixture flows into the cup. It resembles mist in both appearance and the way it flows. The machine beeps wildly, trying to figure out what "perfect" is. Finally, it clicks, and a navy blue liquid is poured into another styrofoam cup.
*Hubris pick up the cup and examines the liquid before drinking it and tasting it thoroughly.* Hmmmm...
[Teddie picks up the cup with the light gray liquid and chugs it down without thinking twice.]
Hubris's drink is flavorless at first, but after a moment, it tastes exactly what one thinks the best drink SHOULD taste like. It's comparable to one's favorite drink, but with that extra "something" to make it a masterpiece. Teddie is immediately bombarded with the memories of everything he has ever experienced. It's so overwhelming that his brain short-circuits for a second to suppress the massive flow of information.
[Teddie holds his head for a moment.] Ugh maybe i should've been more specific...
*Hubris finishes the drink as he walks away.* This is...acceptable.
[Teddie reflects on one of the memories before he types something else in.] Hmmm, let's see... [He types "sword and gun skills" he doesn't really expect it to work, though.]
A neon orange drink flows into a cup. It smells like metal and anime. Okay, the second part was a joke, but still.
*In a poof of purple smoke, Jin pops up next to the drink machine. After looking it over, he types "MAGIC IS EVERYTHING" into the machine.* What can I say? Magic is my life, so how can I not ask for this!
[Yet again, he drinks it without second thought, hoping for a great result.]
*Dastardly rubs his hands together while hiding behind a corner* Heheheheh! Little do they know, I just filled up that machine with Dynamite! As soon as they order a new drink, KA BLOOM! Its a perfect plan! With several injured by the blast, I can take the lead, and win the wacky races! *Dastardly than smiles* Phew, all this talking to myself is making me thirsty. Guess I'll drink what I ordered from that machine. *He closes his eyes and takes something out of his pocket and tries to pour the drink in his mouth. When he opens his eyes he sees a stick of dynamite in his hands* Oh phooey. *The dynamite explodes covering Dastardly in a black powder* I've just been having the worst of luck lately...
Teddie drinks it, and is hit with a sudden urge to find a weapon. His senses become sharper, and he feels like he could take on the world... Jin's drink is a swirling pink and purple mixture. It bubbles, as if it can't contain itself. Poor Dastardly.
[Teddie starts chuckling.] Just one last time, maybe, possibly. [The last thing he enters is "every skill i'll ever need in a fight", expecting great things.] What could possibly go wrong?
The machine hums, then dispenses a red liquid. Not blood, of course. That would be creepy.
[He drinks it, savoring every last drop.]
*Jin dumps the whole drink into his mouth, chugging the whole thing in 10 seconds flat.* Ah, that felt good. Living in a desert sure dries my throat.
*Alaina notices the machine as strolls down the alley* *The book in her hand is slowly closed as she peers at the keypad* Now this is true workmanship of the modern era. I am almost surprised to find something as normal looking as this in a pretty nice alleyway. *She enters the word "hamster" and raises an eyebrow*
Jin suddenly feels a burst of energy. Pink and purple sparks form around him as his magical energy starts bursting at the seams. Teddie has a sudden realization. All the fighting techniques that come to him at once merge, and he understands the true rules to master battle: Don't get hit, and hit it till it dies.
The machine dispenses a foul-smelling liquid, which is mostly red. It has the metallic smell of blood, as well as a raw, fleshy scent.
*Alaina picks up the Styrofoam cup and wrinkles her nose at the red liquid* How can this even be considered a drink? It looks like the leftovers of some poor maimed animal and smells like it too. I guess this machine is not normal after all. *She sighs and dumps the drink on the group*
Welp, that was a good use of my time, now it's time to go reflect on the plo- i mean... The memory! [Teddie runs off... not before typing infinite amrita soda into the machine.]
The machine starts spewing amrita soda. The flow doesn't stop.
*Floats into the area sitting on a desk which is held up by multiple personas, noticing the peculiar drink machine and reading the message* Could this be my chance...? *The individual beckons to one of the personas holding it up, and it nods, typing in: "A larger nose", before the persona goes back to holding up the desk*
*A large man pushes his way past Faggor, laughing boisterously as he does so. He ponders the drink machine for a moment, before typing in "Gravy Vodka"*
