Starwaddle
Ugh...does anyone have some curry? We need to heal...
Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome gets up with some minor wounds and continues walking

The only thing very damaged is my pride and I know I don't have much left
FemJokerboi
Vishnu! Diaraharn!
*Heals party for full*
Let's keep moving people!
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Wakes up*
Huh.....
Starwaddle
Yay...wait...when did we lose the van? Oh God damnit, we lost the van! Stay here, I'll go get it. *Walks away in a random direction*
-Labrys-
The Party has emerged victorious, though battered. Robin is still unconscious, incredibly weakened, though physically unharmed. It seems to be more of an exhaustion. Laura stands at attention, black blood dripping from the corners of her mouth as she smiles.

"Sorreh I lostya for a bit! You were stollen from meh!"

She pouts and licks the blood into her mouth before nodding.

"Upahead! There's a safe place! C'mon!"

She picks up Robin with ease and skips ahead of the group, traveling down the dark tunnel...
Mishimans
*He feels better as his pain fades away*

*He straightens up*

Well now I feel better for actual movement.

FemJokerboi
Let's follow her guys
*Follows Laura to the safe room*
Aitome_Korichi
What's gotten into her? Well can't complain about a safe place....
Bgammax
*Gamma picks up the pace as Laura rushes past them*

Well you're sure in a rush. No need to be so impatient
Mishimans
*He runs after Laura*

Damn and I just got healed too.
Akamoto_Nanaka
*follows Laura*
Lets Go!
-Labrys-
Laura grins wickedly and kicks a shoe back at Mishimans as he tried to catch up, sticking her tongue out at him.

"Ehehehehe! Fucko~"

She laughs and skips it a large, marble clear area. It's circular with a massive domed ceiling, etched with images of flowers and angels, a ring of benches lining the walls in the center, a magnificent fountain of gold depicting a fiery fist throttling a gasping human, screaming in pain, as several other humans kneel in helplessness on the ground. Blood red water trickles forth into the basin...
Mishimans
*He barely manages to dodge the show*

*He then glares at the back of Laura's head*

Disturbed lunatic.

*He stops at the sight of the fountain*

What the hell.
Bgammax
*Gamma glances at the fountain for a moment, but turns away from it and moves on, deciding not to comment on it. Instead they turn to Laura*

So.... Feel like telling me about this place?
FemJokerboi
Well this is.... elaborate. Mishi, is this one of your places again?
Aitome_Korichi
Well that's not disturbing....

*Aitome sits down on a bench and tries his best to tend to his wounds and clean his coat
Mishimans
*He offers Joker a disbelieving look*

Just how messed up do you think I am.

*He points at Laura*

This is probably the product of her crazy mind.

*He walk up to her*

Sweetie I wonder who exactly gave you permission to make this in a shadows domain.
FemJokerboi
@Mishimans
Well, you have been pretty depressed lately, so your mind improbably in a dark place right now... you never know...
*She sits down on a bench and relaxes*
Akamoto_Nanaka
Hey Nikki! Why don't you ever leave this place?
Mishimans
*He suddenly feels an innate sadness at Joker's words*

I'm not depressed ...

*He can feel phantom pain stemming from abuse*

I just have too much to think about lately.

*He forces a neutral expression*
-Labrys-
Laura turns to Mishimans and grins evilly.

"Oh this wasn't me sweetie. This was the masses. This..This is nirAzA. An ancient structure deep within the hearts of man...One that is truly inescapable."

She suddenly sounds much more mature and serious, sighing slightly as she admires the statue.
FemJokerboi
Uhhh, where did her accent go?
Aitome_Korichi
Nervana? Wasn't that some edgy band in the 90s? Why did they build this place in Mamatoes... how did they get in the Metanerves in the first place...
FemJokerboi
@Aitome_Korichi
Aitome.... please..... you're physically hurting me with how many names you got wrong in that one statement
-Labrys-
Laura shakes her head and laughs, a sexy, mature laugh at Aitome.

"Funny funny pretty boy."

She reaches back and slowly begins to untie the string of her mask, still talking.

"nirAzA. Like I said it's an ancient symbol of Humanity. It never dies. It never fades. It is truly, omnipotent."
Aitome_Korichi
I thought I got it right? What is it then?
Mishimans
*He gazes at Laura with a suspicion*

Even if this fountain is made by humanity itself you still appear to be comfortable about it.

*He suddenly plasters on a smirk*

Oh excuse me I have no even introduced myself in the midst of this.

How rude.

*He offers a mock bow*

My name is Mishi and I don't believe any of the crap your saying.
FemJokerboi
Seriously, why did her voice change? Did she go through puberty in the 5 minutes we've been here?
Aitome_Korichi
Neveda? Isn't that a place somewhere? Why would it be here....

Not sure why your asking us Heart Stealer...
-Labrys-
Laura gently lowers her mask, revealing a young, teenage face with bright blue eyes and flowing pink hair.

"Oh really? You don't believe a being older than you? King of Shadows my ass. Mishimans, you are nothing but a weak sham. An infant."

She grins wildly, baring her fangs wickedly, which now seeing her whole face, seem completely unfitting.
FemJokerboi
I thought someone might know a reason as to why....
FemJokerboi
Woah! Lumina?! ... No, it can't be....
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Mutters*
Reminds me of Onee-chan....
Mishimans
*He back away from Laura and gazes at her with an impassive expression*

I may be a sham but at least i don't look like a dead reject.

*He plays with a hidden knife*

Just what exactly are you Laura?
-Labrys-
"I am but a Shadow that resides here Mishimans. Nothing more. Nothing less. It truly is unfortunate. But I was made into one to save my life. Just before Mom died. Daddy had to do it. Because daddy..."

She gestures to the passed out Robin she put down...

"Mom left daddy to keep him from getting hurt."
Aitome_Korichi
Huh? What is going on anymore?

*Aitome looks at Laura in disbelief and confusion
Mishimans
Interesting family story but you have just proven that you are not a shadow.

*He looks at Laura with a steady gaze*

Shadow have no such things as families or friends.

We are simply born empty into this world.

Clearly you are not like the rest of us hun.
-Labrys-
Laura steadily walk up and rests a hand on Mishimans' chest grinning.

"Says the " Shadow" that was possessed? Several times? Like a man? I question your legitimacy too...but I promise you. I am a shadow."

Hey eyes glow bright yellow as she cackles and takes a step back.

"I am a Shadow. You think I remember crap before I was born? I'm just going off of what Daddy and other Daddy told me. Or my " Bosses""
FemJokerboi
@-Labrys-
Wait, by any chance, are you related to a girl named Lumina?
Mishimans
*He offers one last blank look at Laura and pushes her hand away*

I guess the two of us are pretty unique shadows .

*He sighs*

However I am done with this shit for today.

*He yells at everyone*

Call me when the crazy girl leaves.

*He then dissapears in a swath of shadows*

Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome sighs and gets up

I dont get it at all...
-Labrys-
Laura laughs, choosing it ignore Joker for the time being as her eyes return to normal. She plops down with Nana by the fountain and pulls a Capri Sun from her sweater, sipping it happily...

"Y'all take rests. We gots tah keep goin through dis ere level."

Her original accent returning, she smiles and sip more of her juice, leaning on Nana lightly...

Resting replenishes the Party's SP slightly and restores their Health.

OOC: due to a family emergency the continuation will unfortunately be delayed until Sunday 6pm EST. I'm sorry. I hate my life.
Shiza_Salad
OOC: Ripperoni. Good luck!
Robin-K
*Stirring, Robin awakens, slowly sitting up as he held his head, headache already forming from using 'his' power*
..Owww..that..I felt that one...
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Nana wakes up in the illusion she made, removing it and becoming visible*
Starwaddle
*drives up to everyone in the van* I found it! I found the van!
Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome gets up and looks around

Is everyone ready?
Robin-K
*Looking at the others, Robin stood up*
You guys all okay..?
*His grey eyes noticably looked over to Nana when he said this*
Akamoto_Nanaka
I'm hungry.....
FemJokerboi
*Joker wakes up and stretches* Mmm, that was a great nap! Are we ready to go now?
Aitome_Korichi
As good as I'll ever be. More importantly are you okay?
Robin-K
@Aitome_Korichi
Yeah, I'm fine..
Just being an idiot and using a power I shouldn't be using.
It was worth it though...
Some of the team was getting hurt too much and I didn't want that to happen..
FemJokerboi
@Robin-K
Yeah, that power was super awesome! You really helped a ton! You're super strong. We should soar sometime
Aitome_Korichi
I wont lie, that power probably saved us, however, you shouldn't hurt yourself.
Migrant
*Hey look, a black ooze on the ceiling. Hey look, someone's falling from it... Oh shit, it's Migrant! *
Nacci
*Nacci is next to the group, standing up straight with her eyes closed.*

...
FemJokerboi
*Joker sees Miggy falling and catches her midair*
Looks like an angel just tell from heaven....
Robin-K
Is there any good..?
Nana is hungry...
*Robin patted her once again, hoping that it'll help until she got good*

@FemJokerboi
*Robin grinned*
Well we could spar but I'm not bringing out that power. It's kinda of something I only use when I feel like I need to
Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome sighs at Black Mask and Heart Stealer

You 2 just wont stop will you...
Migrant
*Blushes upon being caught by Joker* Oh you... Say, where is this? I was leaving that lab and then... Here I am.
FemJokerboi
@Migrant
Well, we're currently in the depths of Mementos, little lady!


@Robin-K
I'm tougher than I look! You might need to use it against me!

The golden fountain of an armored fist throttling a human, others begging helplessly on the ground stands tall at the center of the room. The tall domed ceiling is pristine and etches with angels smiting lower beings, save for the odd spot of black ooze that Migrant fell from. Star drives into the circular chamber up to where everyone sits on the circular chain of benches...upon Inspection, Laura is nowhere to be seen...
Starwaddle
Do you guys have any idea of what I had to go through to get the van? I had run away from a fuck ton of stuff while trying to navigate this place! With that said, I'm not leaving this van for any circumstances. I'm not losing the van again!
Aitome_Korichi
I thought you were a god? Can't you just use a gps or something?
Migrant
Okay so... someone fill me in. Why does Mementos look like some weird smiting cathedral?
Akamoto_Nanaka
Does anyone know where the toilet is?
Starwaddle
I could, if this place didn't turn into a maze for some fucking reason!
Aitome_Korichi
No idea, Something to do with either Nevada or Nervana....
Aitome_Korichi
How would that change putting a gps on the truck to track it?
Robin-K
*Looking around*
What the hell is this place..?
It isn't exactly cheery nor is it something I'd choose as a holiday destination
Starwaddle
It's a van, and Mementos apparently doesn't like GPS's!
FemJokerboi
Yeah, this place kinda gives me the heeby jeebies
Akamoto_Nanaka
Anybody?
Nacci
*Nacci wakes up from sleep mode inside the van. She starts looking around at the people she's with.
She looks over to Star, still inside the van.*

Excuse me, I was requested to serve as back-up on this mission, however I do not know it's purpose. Could you please explain it to me?
Robin-K
@Akamoto_Nanaka
You doing okay..?
Still trying to find food...and toilet I guess..
Akamoto_Nanaka
I gotta pee!
If I don't find a toilet Imma pee right here!
Starwaddle
Basically, there's a bunch of strong shadows running around, and we have to destroy them before they run up into the upper floors of Mementos and possibly getting loose in Shibuya.
FemJokerboi
@Akamoto_Nanaka
If you're gonna owe, do it near a tree or something!
FemJokerboi
@Akamoto_Nanaka
If you're gonna pee, do it near a tree or something!
Nacci
I see. I shall now proceed to find shadows and annihilate them.

*Nacci exits the van and begins to walk around the area, looking for shadows.*
Migrant
Huh, so are the shadows related to this new decor or not? Because I feel like they're unrelated...

*blinks at Nana* U-um... what Joker said!
Robin-K
*Robin scratched his head as he tried to come up with something to help Nanaka*
..Fuck...hang on...
ummm.......
Migrant
OOC: BTW I think Discord's servers just imploded.
-Labrys-
The floor shudders, and there is a ding like an elevator, a marble porter potty rising from the floor...
Nacci
OOC: Yeah, they're working on it.

I MADE A THREAD ABOUT IT DONT TALK HERE
-Labrys-
OOC: Yeppppp
FemJokerboi
Oh hey look, there's your bathroom
Migrant
Huh.... that's.... convenient.

Weird, concerning, but convenient.
Starwaddle
...and now Mementos is using Nexus bullshit! Wait, Mementos is in the Nexus I think, so this is actually just Nexus bullshit!
Nacci
*Nacci continues to walk around the circular area, looking for shadows.*
Akamoto_Nanaka
Toilet!
*Nana rushes in *
Robin-K
*Pointing at the toilet*
Over there Nana, go for it!
-Labrys-
==Open The Stall?==

>Yes
>No
Migrant
I mean.... at least the Nexus isn't in Mementos?

Heh... heh.... *existential heh*
Aitome_Korichi
That's odd... we should knock...
Nacci
*Nacci begins to run back towards the group.*
Migrant
I mean what are the odds that we open it and a shadow pops out?
FemJokerboi
@Migrant
Very high actually. Still, she needs to go, so we should knock
Aitome_Korichi
Is the girl in here... what was her name... Larry?
Robin-K
..Dude..Don't jinx us..
Nana needs this...
*Robin facepalms*
Akamoto_Nanaka
Yes!
Akamoto_Nanaka
*pulls open door*
Aitome_Korichi
Still better than a shadow... at any rate let's try opening it....

>open
Migrant
*Sighs* Fine, let me just get ready for a fight.

>open
FemJokerboi
>open
Akamoto_Nanaka
If it's a shadow I'll PEE on it!
FemJokerboi
@Akamoto_Nanaka
Gross
Starwaddle
Open it up. Just go, it's probably not a trap.
>Open
Robin-K
*Robin chuckled at Nana's comment*
Heaven have mercy on the shadow that will stand between Nana and something she wants..
-Labrys-
Opening the door, a blue gray demon sits upon a toilet and looks up, mildly startled as he lowers his paper.

Belphegor: "Oh. Yo. Um. Gimme a sec."

He snaps his fingers and another stall rises...

"That one should be empty. Sorry."

He pulls the door closed...
Aitome_Korichi
N-n-no....
Starwaddle
...well that just happened.
Aitome_Korichi
I told you.... well no use dallying now...
FemJokerboi
*Joker laughs hysterically*
What the hell was that!?
Migrant
.... why?
Robin-K
*Robin started laughing out loud*
..Goddamm...hahahahahahhaha
Akamoto_Nanaka
*rushes to the other stall*
Open up!
Nacci
*Nacci arrives and puts her palms up to the recently closed stall.*

I sense a shadow within this stall. Is it not our mission to eliminate them? Why did we not engage the enemy?
-Labrys-
It opens. Its empty. Sweet release.
FemJokerboi
@Nacci
Let the shadow live, he's not hurting anyone. There s no need to slaughter unnecessarily
Robin-K
Oh right.
*Robin turns to the group*
Anyone have any food on them..?
Nana was hungry
Akamoto_Nanaka
Mine!
*enters the stall*
Aitome_Korichi
Its honorable to not kill something while its on the toilet Nacci.... besides if it doesn't attack us I see no reason to fight it
Nacci
*Nacci's eyes flash as she takes in the information, and puts her hands down and turns to Joker.*

Acknowledged. I will continue to examine the surrounding area.

*Nacci begins to walk around the circular area once more.*
FemJokerboi
@Nacci
*Chuckles* At least it's understanding....
Starwaddle
*starts playing a game on her tablet* fuck you, fuck you, fuck you in particular, and...I win.
Migrant
Hmm... what'cha playing, Star?
Akamoto_Nanaka
*Shouting is heard from inside the stall*
WHY DOES IT ONLY HAVE A URINAL!
Aitome_Korichi
.....

*Aitome facepalms and sighs

I thought I was going to be killing shadows and getting loot.....
Migrant
*laughs loudly!*

I'm sorry, what are those!?

*laughs more*
Robin-K
*Seeing as no one replied, Robin dug through his small satchel, trying to find something he may have had on him*
..Hmm.....
A-hah!
*Robin pulled out an apple, clean and pristine*
..Well..I guess this is better than nothing..
I'll give it to her when she gets out...
Starwaddle
@Migrant South Park Phone Destroyer.
Migrant
Phone Destroyer? Why do you hate your phone?
Akamoto_Nanaka
*comes out*
Stupid shadows, making a girl use a urinal.....
Robin-K
*While waiting, Robin fiddled with the apple as he pondered about Laura's words before*
...I'm her father huh....
Nacci
*Nacci keeps walking around the circle, headed for the opposite side the rest of the group is at, looking at the walls and ceiling for any openings or shadows.*
Starwaddle
I don't, it's just the name of the game.
Migrant
Oh... I see. *looks at Nana*

How'd that go? Never tried it, oddly enough.
Robin-K
Oh, Nana...Here!
*Robin handed Nana the apple*
It's better than nothing I guess...
-Labrys-
With a sudden lurch, the walls of the room rotate 90 degrees, causing the one entrance to connect to a different tunnel...Water suddenly flows through a now open channel and flows down a pair of canals on the sides of the tunnel.
FemJokerboi
Woah, the hell!? Water?
Akamoto_Nanaka
Thanks R-kun.
*Starts eating the apple*
Starwaddle
Huh...neat... okay everyone, get in. It's time to go deeper.
Migrant
H-huh!?

Did... did the room move? Is it time to go?
FemJokerboi
Let's bounce people!
Nacci
Interesting, the room works in the you may only access one entrance or exit at a time.

*Nacci walks over to the new entrance, but does not enter it.*
Aitome_Korichi
Um... are we going to get flooded?
Robin-K
Alright!
*Robin hops onto the roof of the van, lightly knocking the roof to indicate them to get going*
Akamoto_Nanaka
*warps on the roof*
Migrant
*Gets into the van because she's not crazy like Nana and Robin it seems*
Robin-K
*Grabbing hold of Nana's arm, Robin secure himself on the roof with his katana*
Careful, wouldn't want you to fall off...
*Robin smiled before turning to the front*
FemJokerboi
*Hope into passenger seat next to Star(who's probably druving* Let's move!
Aitome_Korichi
Alright... well this isn't pleasant at all...

*Aitome walks into the van and takes a seat
Nacci
*Nacci waits by the new entrance for the van to swing by.*
Akamoto_Nanaka
I won't fall.
Starwaddle
Okay, time to dive deeper into Mementos. *Starts driving into the tunnel*
-Labrys-
The Party hops into, or on to (depending on how Edge you're feeling), the Van and Star hits the gas, driving the party into the new tunnel. It seems to have a downward slope to it, as well as many twists and turn. It eventually comes to a fork in the road, the canal continuing down the Right path.
Nacci
*Nacci grabs onto the van when it passes her.*
Starwaddle
Hmm...I say we go right. It worked last time, and I have a feeling the canal is important.
FemJokerboi
Good thinking Star! Right we go!
Migrant
At the very least the water has to be flowing from somewhere...
Nacci
I do not have a preference on this matter. As long as we eliminate shadows, I do not care which path we take.
Aitome_Korichi
Well if you say so...
Akamoto_Nanaka
Right!
FemJokerboi
>Right
Migrant
>Right
Robin-K
Right it is...
Starwaddle
Right it is! *Drives down the right path*
-Labrys-
Veering the van right, the party follows the canal's flow, until eventually it Ts into a large, curving tunnel, noticeably made from concrete, rather than the red organic matter of Mementos...Looking in either direction and examining the curvature, it can be deduced that this is some sort of circular path.
Aitome_Korichi
There has to be something on the other side, I say we check it out.
Migrant
Hmm.... well this is interesting, indeed...

Likely artificial to Mementos? Like the room before? I'm guessing there's a way to get into the middle somewhere in this circle.
Robin-K
*Robin grins at the structure*
..Well, ain't this interesting...
Akamoto_Nanaka
We should go back, it's probably a waste of time.
Aitome_Korichi
I mean, we've already gone to far it would be a waste to not check it out.
Starwaddle
Meh, I'll just drive around. I'll start by driving right. *Drives around the circle, starting from the right*
FemJokerboi
Boy, this'll be interesting
-Labrys-
==UPDATE==
-Labrys-
As Star turns right and begins to drive around the ring, a red blur rockets past them, lightning crackling through the air. The red blur encircles their vehicle as grates suddenly slam up, trapping them in this quarter of the ring. Emergency alarms begin to sound throughout the area, blue and red light flashing. The blur stands before the party, shimmering, and impossible to make out.
Starwaddle
...oh shit...we tripped the security system...who wants to guard the van while I stay inside and support you guys?
Aitome_Korichi
We could always try diplomacy, it never works though...
Akamoto_Nanaka
I told you we should have gone back.
FemJokerboi
Robin and I will guard the van, everyone else support
*Joker climbs out of the van*
Robin-K
*Standing tall on top of the van, Robin immediately drew his katana and pistol, ready to engage it*
Nacci
*Nacci flips herself ontop of the van, and puts her palms up towards the blur.*

Permission to engage?
Migrant
Nah, this is a good thing. It means whoever runs this place thinks this is worth protecting.

Something good's in this circle.

*she climbs on out of the van*
FemJokerboi
@Nacci
Permission granted
Robin-K
So I guess it's just three then huh..?
We've got this...
*Robin grinned as he eyed the enemy*
Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome yells out to the blur

Hey! We don't wanna fight you! We just need to get past!

-Labrys-
The blur laughs in a deep, distorted voice.

???: "Get PAST us? You think you can do that? Think you can beat us?"

Two more red blurs step out from behind the first one, now standing on either side of him. In unison:

???: "We are the best. The fastest. You will surrender immediately. Lest you desire to die?"
FemJokerboi
@Robin-K
*Prepares her weapons* You ready to beat the shit outta this?
Migrant
Oh, three of them, divide and conquer or burn one down fast?
Akamoto_Nanaka
What are your terms?
Robin-K
@FemJokerboi
*Robin grinned*
...you bet your sexy ass I am.
Let's get this shit started!
Aitome_Korichi
Well looks like we are going to have to dust some knuckles...

*Aitome puts his hand on his Envoker

Ready when you are.
FemJokerboi
Everyone focus your magic on them, Robin and I will clean up any loose ends.

@Robin
Better not slow me down....
Starwaddle
Let's just get this over with.
Nacci
*A card appears in front of Nacci, and she puts her hands on either side.*

I am ready to engage the enemy. Please give me the OK.
Robin-K
@FemJokerboi
Oh please..
Not slowing worth shit.
*Robin grins as he pointed his pistol towards the enemy*
Get out of our way..!
Migrant
*Mig is surrounded in a swirl of blue flame before revealing her... thief outfit?

Well and her usual black mask (not pictured because I'm no artist, I just use other's work)*

....If not for the fact we're in a life or death situation, I'd be screaming right now. So instead I'm gonna take my frustration out on you if you don't get out of our way!
FemJokerboi
*To the shadows*
I suggesst you flee before I kick your ass....
Starwaddle
...note to self: wear more dresses.
Aitome_Korichi
Black Mask doesn't have a black dress? Strange...
Akamoto_Nanaka
So bloodthirsty....
Robin-K
If it means keeping people safe then I'll be as bloodthirsty as I have to be..
Akamoto_Nanaka
Yeah.. but rushing into battle i a good way of getting people hurt too.
Robin-K
I'll defend them..even if I go down doing so..
FemJokerboi
@Akamoto_Nanaka
You have to do what must be done to save someone. This isn't bloodthirst, it's called duty
Akamoto_Nanaka
But there's no need for anyone to get hurt if there's no battle.
FemJokerboi
@Akamoto_Nanaka
Theres about to be one. We need to pass and they won't let us. Clearly, they will attack us. Use your brain
Robin-K
*Robin froze on Nana's reply before his stance eased slightly*
..So..only fight if we need to...
..I..I can agree with that...
Akamoto_Nanaka
Why do we need to pass, there's another road.... If we negotiate there's a chance they'll let us go....
Migrant
Issue is, I imagine the other road is equally blocked. And if it isn't, then that means they're guarding something in this specific spot.
Starwaddle
To be perfectly honest, I would rather not get into a fight if I don't have too.
Aitome_Korichi
*Aitome sighs

Are we fighting,negotiating, or trying the other path?
FemJokerboi
*Joker eased up a little* If anyone gets hurt, it's not my fault, it's yours...
FemJokerboi
I guess negotiating will do
Akamoto_Nanaka
Trust me, if they force us into a fight I'll happily blow their brains out!

But there might not be a need.

Sure the other side of this road might be blocked, but the other road might not be.
Robin-K
*Robin nodded*
I'll gamble with that chance then.
We'll take them down if they attack
Migrant
Very well, then.
-Labrys-
The blurs shake their heads and sigh in unison.

???: "Man you guys are indecsivive...Why does the boss even care about you? You're all over the place. Diplomacy, fighting, how to fight, then infighting....Uhg. We're tired of your bullshit. We're taking you punks DOWN!"

They all take fighting stances!

???: "We'll bring you in, no holds barred!"
