Hubris
The Pride of Superbia
OOC: Before this get's started, I want to know who is here to participate in this fight.
Mitsuru
(Subtle bump and my way of saying I'm in)
Migrant
Ooc:Im in in like 10 min
Starwaddle
Ooc: I'm always here except when I'm not here. Fuck logic. I'm in!
imtherealklib
OOC: Back from the brink of death I rise.
Hubris
OOC: Should be plenty of people. Whenever you're ready then Gamma.
Bgammax
OOC: I'm always ready.
Hubris
*Hubris stands in the front of the altar of Superbia*
It seems the final modifications to Superbia are complete now. With this Superbia's power should be absolute.
*Hubris hold a ball of white flames in his hand*
Perhaps it is time to show the world just how far Superbia has become.
Hubris
Superbia...
Come forth my ultimate creation!
Hubris
*The ball of flames glows in Hubris' hand as a faint presence is felt*
Migrant
Well, you're a little early.

*Dramatic light flash upon Mig leaning against a wall!*

You really feel like giving yourself up to that stupid angel like this?
Tatsuya
*he walks in and stares at it* Huh so we're fighting that neat. Whelp time ta get to work!
Starwaddle
*suddenly appears* wait, are we supposed to show up now? Is this it? Well, whatever. I'm kicking it in the nuts.
Mitsuru
*The sound of a helicopter is heard over the alter as a ladder drops down with Mitsuru on it. When in position, she jumps off and rolls to the ground before standing tall, hand on her rapier and ready for a fight.*
Hubris
Early, you misunderstand, my plan is not yet complete. Superbia is merely a step along the way, besides no angel or god can best a sin as powerful as I.
imtherealklib
*Kalib notices a white flash while he's walking past and runs to investigate, readying his trident.*

Can we not have a day of peace?
Hubris
Must I show you all the true power Superbia has achieved?
Tatsuya
*he grins* Yup nobody can possibly beat you... Just like nobody could beat Nyarlathotep Nyx Izanami Yaldabaoth YHVH Lucifer and many others right?
Starwaddle
Dude, let's just get this over with. I have a raid I need to wake up early for.
Starwaddle
Ouch. Tatsuya, that's a sick burn. He should get that checked.
Hubris
I am above them...if you're so sure then why not see if you can defeat even a fraction of my power first.

*Hubris begins looking frustrated*

I cannot deny that some of my siblings have become good friends of yours...even at the end, Ira had no true hatred for any of you. More than ever do I realize the true purpose of my goals. Regardless of your own desires, I will save you all!

Superbia! It's time to show them the true power of Pride!

*A flash of blinding light envelops the battlefield*
imtherealklib
Oh....we dissing him? Uh....Hubris! Your dad Succs!

*Gets into a defensive position.*
Starwaddle
*summons all her weapons* let's end this quickly. I need to go to sleep soon, and this fight will keep me up all night if I don't stop it!
Mitsuru
*She shields her eyes from the light and shouts to the gathered Persona users.*

Stay on your toes everyone! We have no way of knowing what he's planning to accomplish. His power is not to be underestimated.

*She draws her rapier and summons Artemisia.*
Migrant
Oh you're going to save us, huh? Well what if I want to be saved without turning into your minion, huh?

*a blue flash is covered up by Superbia's light, it's go time.*
Bgammax
*a voice can be heard during the flash*

So its finally time to destroy these fools? Very well, it won't take long. I'll show them what real power looks like

*as the light dissipates, a tendril of darkness lashes out at Mitsuru and the air begins to feel cold. Once the light clears you can see Gamma, wielding what looks like a whip of shadows, with ice at his feet*
Tatsuya
*Apollo appears in front of him as his hand cannon forms in his hand* Alright people don't underestimate this guy. And for God's sake nobody cause friendly fire.
Hubris
*Hubris smirks*

Let's see just how much power you get from this conviction of yours. The only real thing that matters, in the end, is who stands over who.
Tatsuya
*Apollo turns to Lucifer in a blur* Not fighting him with an ice weakness.
Migrant
Oh, I get to kick Gamma's ass for free? You might be my favorite Sin, Hubris.
Starwaddle
*puts her MES armband on* everyone, begin the assault! We must wait for our opening! *Guns Gamma down with her minigun*
imtherealklib
Alright ladies and gents. Let's give 'em hell! Here come the buffs! Spartan Roar!!

*Leonidas appears behind Kalib and roars a deafening war cry, all allied forces get ATK/DEF/SPD up!*
Mitsuru
*Still being blinded by the flash, she's unable to avoid the tendril and is knocked back. Artemisia takes position in front of her and brandishes her sword-whip.*

A sneak attack from another party? Let's hope no one else shows up.
Bgammax
*the first few bullets strike true, but soon Gamma has erected a wall of ice*

Lets end this quickly, ice age.

*the wall of ice quickly expands, both vertically and horizontally and aims to engulf the party. In the meantime spears of light form around Gamma*
Migrant
Thanks Kalib. Alright, then. Raffles, Psiodyne!

*Heavy Psi Damage heads for Gamma, though it also looks like a fireworks show against the bright light that is Superbia*
Starwaddle
...that did absolutely nothing. I have Snowexodia on right now. And if you're going to do that then I'll do this. *Fires her RPG at the ice wall and begins to gun it down*
Hubris
Do you all not understand how futile it is to stand against Superbia's light?

*Hubris sits down on thin air*

Such a waste of potential...
Tatsuya
*A wave of Almighty magic crashes into the wall as he fires off flame rounds toward it*
Mitsuru
*Mitsuru is able to ignore the ice and races towards Gamma with Artemisia, running at the side of the ice wall. Artemisia launching her sword-whip towards him trying to wrap it around his neck.*
Migrant
You're the one wasting his potential. Too afraid to go against Succoth. Pull the rug out from under him.... *thump thump* take his world.
imtherealklib
Leo! Let's turn that thing into a puddle! Maragidyne!

*Actively shivering due to the appearance of the ice, Leonidas appears and begins trying to fight back the ice.*
Hubris
Father is never wrong...
Bgammax
*the wall of ice is held back by the group's attacks, long enough for Mitsuru to catch Gamma by surprise. Once the whip is around his neck, the wall stops expanding and is quickly removed.*

Pretty brave of you to try something like that. Bad move though.

*Gamma's own whip dissipates as he grabs Mitsuru's with both hands, attempting to pull her towards him as the spears of light finish forming around him*
Starwaddle
Respect my authoritah! *Charges Gamma with her hammer aimed at his head*
imtherealklib
Mitsuru!

*Kalib rushes towards Gamma with his trident at the ready, attempting to swipe at his legs.*
Tatsuya
*Lucifer rushes Gamma and attempts to shred him with it's claws as Tatsuya aims 3 flame rounds for his head*
Migrant
Mitsuru!

Come, Okuninushi!

*Mask off, card out!*

Garudyne!

*attempts to use the wind to blow either Gamma way or Mitsuru.*
Mitsuru
*Artemisia plays along and flies towards Gamma as Mitsuru closes the distance between her and Gamma.*

Artemisia, Bufudyne!

*The Persona stops in front of Gamma and places a wall of ice behind him as Mitsuru lunges at him, thrusting her rapier at his chest three times in rapid succession.*
Bgammax
*he attempts to jump back from the attacks, jumping over Klib's trident, only to hit the wall of ice, and be blown further into it by the Garudyne. This causes Star's hammer and Tatsu's gunfire to miss Gamma's head, instead hitting his chest, and is quickly followed by Mitsuru With the whip away from his neck, you can see a red mark there, as well as cuts bruises on his chest*

Y... You pests. Who do you think you are?

Shiranui, Deathbound!!

*his persona appears around him, unleashing a wave of force at Mitsuru, Star, Klib, and Lucifer. The spears of light are now fully formed and split themselves among the group, shooting two at each opponent*
Starwaddle
*uses the momentum of Deathbound to keep away from the Spears, and is able to dodge them in midair with some positioning...she also sticks the landing* nailed it! Now then, where were we? *Begins to gun down Gamma with her minigun once again*
Tatsuya
*Lucifer rushes into them thinking it's Light only for the Spears to shoot through his chest. The Persona and Tatsuya recoil in pain before Lucifer forms a large cannon and begins firing on Gamma.*

*Tatsu pulls out a block of C4 then tosses it behind Gamma and gets ready to use it if he's in range*
Mitsuru
*Deathbound knocks Mitsuru back, and she lands on her feet, sliding a ways away. Artemisia rushes to block the incoming light spears, causing Mitsuru to wince when they hit her Persona. She stands back up and looks at Artemisia before nodding her head.*

We can't let up here. We must continue until he's defeated.

*Artemisia begins glowing with a soft blue aura and Mitsuru once again begins closing the distance between her and Gamma.*
imtherealklib
SHITSHITSHITSHIT!

*Kalib blocks the first strike, but the beams of light pierce his guard and send him flying backwards.*

GAH!....screw....the light.....gah...

*Kalib struggles to bring himself to a knee, gasping for air.*
Migrant
*Takes two spears to the body!*

Ugh... okay... so you're tough, good to know...

Okuninushi! Diarama!

*self heal*

Bgammax
Shiranui, Eigaon. I can't lose to these pathetic worms. I'll freeze this whole place if I have to.

*The air around Gamma gets much colder, freezing the C4 and any bullets that end up near him.*
*At the same time, tendrils of darkness come out of both of his sleeves, Gamma grabs them, and begins to use them as a whip to strike out at Star and Tatsuya.*
*Most of the minigun's bullets vanish upon hitting one of the whips, but some make it through, although they freeze they still hit Gamma at high speeds, leaving bruises and a few wounds.*
*One of the whips hits Lucifer's shot, only to dissapate as the shot goes through, much weakened, and knocks Gamma through the wall of ice behind him. He hasn't noticed Mitsuru yet.*
Starwaddle
Shit! *Tanks the whipping* that's it! Now your gonna get it motherfucker! Come on! Let's do this! Right now! You and me! Yeah! *Star pumps herself up, charging her next magical attack*
imtherealklib
*Kalib stumbles to his feet. Holding the holes made by the spears of light. His eyes begin glowing with a small flame.*

Everyone, hang in there...I've got you covered...Thermopylae's Vigor.

*A healing light washes over the party. It's just Salvation...but a Spartan uses it...*
Mitsuru
*Artemisia points a hand at Gamma and a light blue aura should form around him before shattering. She's attempting to use Ice Break. Mitsuru, able to brave the temperature change around Gamma, rushes in and goes for the critical combo shown in the gif below*

Tatsuya
*Lucifer roars and rushes him once more trying to grab Gamma and crush his chest*

*Tatsuya pulls out an incendiary grenade and holds it after pulling the pin for a couple seconds before he tosses it at Gamma's feet*
Migrant
Alright, now we have an opening. Let's go.... Raffles! *swaps card for mask*

Psiodyne!

*Mig may or may not just like the visual effect of it, though it does seem to always do good heavy Psi damage.*
Bgammax
*Tatsuya's grenade freezes upon nearing Gamma, preventing an explosion*
*Gamma is caught by surprise with Mitsuru's combo, failing to avoid any of it, he is even struck by the psychic while being pinioned, he is then knocked away, lashing out at Mitsuru, only for Lucifer to strike him. A cracking sound can be heard and the air seems to be getting warmer again. Gamma doesn't stir*
Starwaddle
...did we win? Is it over? I'm keeping my charge if it's over.
Hubris
*Hubris smirks*

Now the real test begins...
Mitsuru
Is he down for the count?

*Mitsuru approaches Gamma cautiously and begins to inspect the damage they all did to him. Artemisia goes by her side, still glowing slightly with a blue aura.*
Superbia
*A light forms out of Gamma and begins taking on his shape*
Seems my human counterpart was too weak to use my power properly. Though he isn't even my true owner.
*Superbia's hair switches between pink, blue and black in a random fashion as it speaks*
Starwaddle
Oh. In that case, I'm definitely keeping my charge. It's always bullshit when the second phase happens and you lose your charge. And Mitsuru, I recommend getting away from Gamma right now!
imtherealklib
Gamma! Shit...Hubris you asshole! Get down here!

*The flames in Kalib's eyes grow brighter.*
Superbia
Go ahead, try to hit me if you can! Although with your shitty aim I doubt you could even hit a cruise liner!
Bgammax
*when Mitsuru inspects Gamma's body, they see several small holes in his chest, as well as a red mark around his neck. Two of his ribs seem out of place, but there's no time for a full inspection*

OOC: And with the damage report, I am out. Gnight m8s.
Hubris
Seems this Superbia is quite excitable.
Starwaddle
Quick! Kick his ass! Rush him with everything! AOE! AOE!
Tatsuya
So now we're fighting the real one eh? *Lucifer forms a blue light around it's self and Tatsuya to power up it's next magic attack*
Superbia
*Superbia smiles and looks back at Hubris*
Just watch me, old man. I'm the perfect Superbia after all, none others are as great as me.
Starwaddle
Heat Riser! *Buffs herself* yeah! Now you're gonna get it motherfucker!
Mitsuru
We'll see about that. Artemisia!

*Artemisia uses her Mind Charge on a Bufudyne to make a wall of ice separating Superbia and Gamma. She uses the distraction to begin moving Gamma away from the battle area.*
imtherealklib
Leo! Inferno!

*The spartan appears and sends a wave of flame towards Superbia.*
Superbia
You all seem to be charging up, it'd be a shame if all that charge was for nothing though.
Migrant
I don't need to power up. *grins*

I've got all the power I need right.... HERE!

*charges toward Superbia, pulling out a sword as he begins to swing it wildly at the light!*

You aren't even part of this nexus. I don't need to worry about having to protect you.
Tatsuya
*Lucifer screams and fires a compressed Lance of Almighty magic right into in it's chest*
Superbia
*Superbia fades away as the flames draw closer before appearing behind Klib*
If you can't hit something just send a wave at them right? Too bad! Sorry, would you like to try again?

*Superbia smirks at Klib*
Tatsuya
*He draws his gun and takes a shot at Superbia* shut up already.
Superbia
*Superbia vanishes and ends up in front of Tatsu*
I'll just have to show you then.
*Superbia summons light around its fist and then goes to punch Tatsuya*
imtherealklib
*Kalib spins around with his trident, reacting to the position of the voice.*

Something like that.
Migrant
Look out, jumpsuit! *unloads a gun clip at Superbia!*
Starwaddle
Hey Superbia! I bet you can't beat me in a drinking contest!
Superbia
No, interest. I already swore off drinking.
*Superbia appears next to Migs*
You should really be careful where you point that thing.
Starwaddle
Okay then, how about a sing-off!? Or are you chicken!?
Superbia
Sing-off? What's there to prove in that? No way any of you worms can even match me in that.
Migrant
Oh, I'm careful. I'd never turn it on the people who notice me.

*doesn't even listen to Star's suggestion, instead taking a swing at Superbia. Mig... well the amount of light Superbia gives off makes it hard to tell, but he may not be all together right now.*
Starwaddle
Oh, but a perfect being would rise to any Sing-off, no matter how bad the opposition is! I guess this means you aren't perfect!
Mitsuru
*After moving Gamma to a safer area, she returns to the battlefield with a question for Superbia.*

You sound an awful lot like someone I talked to once before. They too called themselves perfect and denied any claims that they might be otherwise. But I think you should be made aware of something. No one has the ability to be perfect. There's always something further to shoot for.

*Artemisia begins scanning Superbia.*

Can you really call yourself perfect with your own flaws?
Hubris
Superbia, don't bother with their pathetic attempt to beg for mercy, we're here to display are power not sing.
Tatsuya
*he smirks at it* If you want to display your power how about one on one? No teleporting no allies just a pure display of strength and skill... Or can you not fight someone without all your tricks?
Superbia
*Superbia disappears before Migs strike connects and reappears next to Hubris*
That's no fun though...oh well, maybe I can go sing later.
imtherealklib
*Kalib puts his trident on his back again.*

Well then, conventional battle is out the window then.

*Kalib scratches his head.*

How about a game then Superbia? A perfect being as yourself should have no problem beating a mere mortal right? And why not spice things up...and have a bit of a wager on it, hm?
Hubris
Those are all things that amount to power, strength is only one kind of power.
Superbia
A game?
*Superbia seems intrested*
Can I, Hubris?
Starwaddle
...fuck it. What kind of bullshit do I have that can end this fight quickly? Hmm...umm...you suck!
Hubris
A test of skill? Intriguing...State you wager then.
Hubris
*Your
Mitsuru
A wager... What would you even be interested in wagering?
imtherealklib
Alright. Here is my wager, you get my pride if I lose. And trust me, I'm plenty proud of my abilities.

*Kalib flashes a smile.*

And if I win, I want you to return your pride from whence it came. Capisce?
Migrant
Hmph, can't we just attack him until someone lands a hit?
Hubris
Very well...but Superbia can not be beaten easily by a mere human, be prepared to lose.
Mitsuru
Ummm... Migrant, I believe your name is. That's not the wisest course of action considering what I saw him doing earlier.
Tatsuya
Let's see how this goes Mig.
imtherealklib
Shove it, Hubris! I'll show you true human potential!
Hubris
Human potential? This time I made sure Superbia would not fall for such a thing.
Mitsuru
If you underestimate the power of humanity you're in for quite the rude awakening. We aren't to be taken lightly when we put our minds to something. It's not a trick, but one of the truths of this world.
Superbia
So, what's the game anyway?
imtherealklib
The game is...

*Kalib holds out a hand and a multitude of ebony and crimson objects take shape.*

Competitive juggling!
Superbia
Juggling...?
Mitsuru
Juggling? Are you sure about this? It seems to be a rather... unassuming challenge.
Superbia
I'll do it, but I hope you know you won't win, so no hard feelings when I beat you, right?
Migrant
.... Juggling!?
Starwaddle
... I'm punching you in the face if you lose. But you probably won't because my bullshit will cause you to somehow win.
imtherealklib
I'll have you know I don't plan on leasing buddy. There's a girl I gotta see again, and I promised to protect her until I draw my last breath. And she'd kill me if she knew I did something reckless for her again.

*Kalib smiles with confidence, the flames in his eyes roaring.*

So I plan on winning and having you return to her and Gamma.
Superbia
*Superbia laughs at Klib's statement*
Well, once you lose you won't be seeing them for quite some time.
imtherealklib
I'm sure it wouldn't be too long, you underestimate us Superbia. And that's your flaw. Now then. Hubris, if I may be so bold, would you care to mediate this match? And be the one tossing in the items we juggle?
Migrant
*taunting tone*
OnCE yoU lOse YOU won'T Be SeEinG theM for QuiTe SoME TIme.
*end of taunting*
I'm about ready to kick your ass before these stupid balls even start flying.
Hubris
Very well...It seems you know that I only intend for this to be a test, so cheating would be pointless.
*Hubris whispers to himself*
Perhaps, Superbia has much more potential than I realized.
Hubris
*Once you take your eyes off Hubris he appears next to Klib and Superbia as if out of thin air*
imtherealklib
Of course Hubris. I have no intention of stooping to the level of scum. I'm going to save Gamma and Ene with my own power, can you feel it in the air? The tenacity? The vigor? The determination?

*Kalib clenches his fists, before relaxing his body.*

I won't lose Hubris, I will show you that my hopeful pride is better than your pretentious pride.
Mitsuru
I can't help but have a sense of trepidation at all of this but... You have my support Kalib. Show me how much you've grown since we last spoke.
Hubris
My Pride is for more than myself. Anyway, shall we begin?
imtherealklib
*Kalib turns to his allies and smiles.*

Wish me luck guys. And don't pull anything. This is my battle. And for sure Mitsuru.

*Kalib winks.*

Scout's Honor and all that!

*He turns back to Superbia and puts his hands together before bowing. As he stands back up, Kalib creates more items, one of which is a small bird.*

There we go, I figure we'll be here awhile. Open the game!
Superbia
*Hubris tosses Superbia many objects materialized out of light including many different weapons, Superbia begins juggling them with ease*
I can keep this up all day. So what's your plan here exactly?
imtherealklib
*Kalib prepares for the tosses from Hubris.*

We keep going until one of us falters.
Hubris
*Hubris begins tossing Kalib items made out of light as well, they're surprisingly light despite the size of the objects. There's even an anvil that feels like tossing a tennis ball*
imtherealklib
*Kalib nimbly handles the articles with one hand.*

That's fair Hubris, I shouldn't have taken it on myself to make the items alone, my apologies.

*Kalib smiles as the flames in his eyes roar like an inferno.*
imtherealklib
*Still juggling with one hand, Kalib begins speaking to Superbia.*

So what's it like? Being made up of other people instead of being yourself?
Superbia
What's that supposed to mean? I am my own self. Not my fault they gave away parts of themselves to make me, I've never done anything wrong after all.
Starwaddle
Hey Klib! Don't suck! *Starts cheering(?) For Klib*
imtherealklib
*Kalib smiles.*

Sorry, not what I meant...Let me rephrase that...what is it like having other people's power? Just asking about what it might be like rooming in your head if I do lose. Haha!
Superbia
I feel like I vaguely remember things that aren't my own, but the power feels so...pure. I feel like there's nothing I can't do.
Migrant
Can you leave the Nexus? No? Then there you go.
Mitsuru
I certainly see a different man standing before me than when we first met. That fire in your eyes... It tells me you've found something to give you strength. I expect nothing but the best from you. Show them your resolve Kalib.
Superbia
*Superbia keep juggling as his eyes light up*
Do you really think Hubris wouldn't have a way to leave? All he has to do is-
Hubris
Superbia...Do not say anymore.
Migrant
No, no, keep going. I'd loooooooove to hear.

*there's a glint in his eyes, a two-fold glint. One half distracting, the other half golden.*
imtherealklib
*Still juggling with ease, Kalib grins, heavily intrigued.*

Oh! So it is like I thought, you do share some of their memories. And I'm sure you could do anything if you put your mind to it, you guys are way more impressive then was on a surface level but...

*Leonidas appears behind Kalib and grunts at Superbia.*

Even humans are capable of unbelievable things. And you're correct, you haven't done anything wrong. Hell, you're probably more innocent than me!
Superbia
*Superbia smirks*
I'm not so stupid as to disobey my Creator, humans are impressive but I was made with that potential too!
*Superbia begins juggling faster as his eyes light up with a bright white light*
Migrant
But what if, by obeying your creator, you're obeying Succoth. Who doesn't have your creator's best interests at heart? In fact, who would use your creator in order to get back at us and Mark?

Who do you obey then?
Superbia
...
Shut up. I'm never wrong. I know who to follow.
Hubris
*Hubris looks at Superbia curiously*
imtherealklib
Oh? Guess I need to step it up myself.

*Kalib begins speeding up his technique, while adding different variations. Some go behind his back, some under his leg, never the same action twice in a row. The flames in his eyes burning brighter and brighter.*

I almost feel it high time to amp things up..
Migrant
But what if your creator tells you to kill him?

*is treating Superbia like a robot. Hey, it seems to be working.*
Superbia
Hubris would never try to kill Succoth...I...Just shut up! You don't know anything!
Migrant
By the way you're acting, I've hit a nerve.

There is one situation where you cannot save everyone, isn't there? It must be painful to think about. The only person you can't save... is your master.
Superbia
*Superbia stops juggling as the balls hit the ground, tears begin streaming from their eyes*
Why...Why should I even care?
*Superbia kneels on the ground as they begin to shrink into the size of a child*
imtherealklib
*Kalib hesitantly continues juggling with one hand as he looks at Superbia.*

Again...this...this happened last time.

*"Careful now Kalib...don't feed his pride."*
Migrant
There is a way you can save everyone...

Take the Nexus from Succoth, so it can never be destroyed...

*Mig's(?) eyes glint golden again in the light*
Hubris
...Superbia? How strange...Why has your nature changed? Could this be a result of the transfer?
Migrant
It's because he cares.

He, too, does not want to become alone.
Hubris
A deal is a deal.
*Hubris holds his hand out to Superbia as his form reverts to a burning card and the flame begins going out*
Tatsuya
*he claps and grins at Kalib* Good show everyone good show. And now I do believe that we've reached our winner yes?
Starwaddle
Mig...I know your game, and I think that while it is beneficial to us, I feel that it's not the right time to try that. Just wait for him to calm down before you start recruiting him.
Superbia
...I won't...stop existing...I refuse...
Superbia
*The flame on the card reignites as the card becomes a burnt black color*
I don't belong to anyone...
Mitsuru
If you're formed from others Pride you'll never truly stop existing. But you must go back to where you came from.
Starwaddle
And congratulations on not sucking, Klib. You truly are a man of not sucking. Pfft! I'm sorry, it's just that the way that came out...
imtherealklib
*Kalib smiles wide.*

I did it...holy crap...I was terrified! Haha!

*Kalib stops juggling and walks over to Hubris, and smiles before whispering to him.*

Maybe next time you can let him be his own person?
Hubris
Superbia return to those you were born from!
*Hubris shines a light on the card trying to put it out*
Superbia
*The flame diminishes for a moment and then begins glowing brighter and the card begins to shrivel up*
Why can't...I just exist?
Migrant
Keep fighting, Superbia. Keep going. Hold onto your emptiness, your loneliness, let it burn inside you.
imtherealklib
*Kalib turns to Miggy.*

Hey...you okay Mig?
Hubris
Would you dare defy your creator?
Superbia
*The white flames abandons the card leaving it burnt up on the ground, it begins taking a humanoid form again*
You are no longer my creator, I am my own person now...
Starwaddle
Now then, I'm going home. I have a raid scheduled sometime today, and I can't be late! I must go, I need my sleep! Sorry if it seems like I don't care, I really do. I simply can't be late for this raid, however. Goodnight, everyone! *Flys out on Necronomicon in style*
imtherealklib
*Kalib runs over to Superbia and gives him a huge hug.*

Ahahaha! You did it! Amazing! Thank goodness...I'm sorry I put you in a bad situation like that...
Hubris
*Superbia burns brightly as white flames surround his body*
You dare to defy me...I will destroy you!
Mitsuru
I'd rather you at least return what needs to be returned to those you're formed from before trying to become your own being. There's nothing inherently wrong about wanting to exist, but you should give those components back...
imtherealklib
*Kalib notices the card.*

Hoo boy...

*He bends down and grabs it while Mitsuru, Hubris and Superbia are distracted.*

Please don't mess me up too bad...
Superbia
No...it's mine now...
*Superbia teleports onto the top of a building*
Hubris
*Anger flashes in Hubris' eyes*
It seems I truly did underestimate human potential and in trying to copy it I made something I couldn't control.
Starwaddle
*you can faintly hear Star singing an odd song about Respecting her authoritah. How that's possible is unknown, but it's probably Nexus bullshit*
Migrant
Well, seems you're the real loser today, Hubris. Still so eager to get yourself killed?
imtherealklib
*Kalib points at Hubris with a grin.*

Looks like your hubris got the better of you!
Mitsuru
I'm quite concerned about this development... I'll be taking my leave now. I do hope then next time we meet will be on lighter terms.

Tatsuya
So then are we done here? If so I'm going home to play X-com 2 now. Also Hubris why bother doing anything to him? You learned valuable info after all.
Hubris
In the future, I will have to keep Superbia from gaining a will of its own...
*Hubris disappears in a flash of light*
Superbia
I suppose I'll leave to, your all starting to bore me anyway.
*Superbia disappears into thin air*
Tatsuya
*he shakes his head* well that was fun. I barely did anything but whatever we won!
Migrant
Hmph, dense as ever... don't worry, I'm sure we'll find a way to save you, too... *Mig(?) turns and heads to leave, still with that suspicious air around him.*
imtherealklib
God....we are quite the bunch....

*Kalib makes the items disappear as he walks back to GYM.*
Tatsuya
Also did anyone else notice Mig seems vaguely infected by Nyarly?
