MY APOLOGIES . I WILL DO WORSE NEXT TIME .

WHEN WILL THEY LEARN THIS IS NOT WHAT I MEAN WHEN I SUGGEST A DOGFIGHT ?

TEMP PINNED BIGSHOT ERA TENNA WRITTEN BY ELI :) #deltarunerp

Feeling unknown and you're all alone, flesh and bone by the telephone — lift up the receiver, I'll make you a believer.

Incredible. I felt it there, shining. Your power. A little further.

Threw the opp into the particle collider. Watched his ass get pulled apart into a million pieces. Turned his sorry ass into some data.

WELL , WELL , WELL . THE CAGE IS WHOLE AGAIN . I SHALL COLLECT GEM IN THE COMING HOURS . DO NOT DESPAIR : THEY WILL NOT BE DISCARDED . THOUGH , I MAY LET THEIR " FRIEND " HAVE SOME TIME TO CATCH UP .

REMIND ME — DID WE NEVER PROVIDE THE OLD BARTENDER WITH A CRYSTAL ? HE HAS LONG SINCE PETRIFIED , BUT I BELIEVE HIS USE IS NOT YET NULLED .

HAVE WE NOT TRIED SIMPLY REQUESTING THAT SHE " DOUBLE IT AND GIVE IT TO THE NEXT PERSON ? " I BELIEVE THE RESULTS WOULD SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES .

— THEY'LL SEE THE TAIL OF HELL TAKE CRAWL.

[ * The door opens, and closes. ] [ * The copy is replaced with its proper form. ] [ * ... ] [ * Looks like his work here is done. ]

[ * An abandoned classroom's door is wiped away, replaced with one in greyscale. ] [ * Feels strongly as though it is meant for only one person to investigate. ]

. . . [ * Gently, it ushers Kris' corpse to the door. ] BID THEM MY GREETINGS AND FAREWELL , WILL YOU ? AND TELL THE PREVIOUS HERO . . . . . . HA HA , SHE WILL NOT ACCEPT MY PRAISE . FORGIVE THIS OLD MAN . BE GOOD , KRIS .

AH ? I BELIEVE IT IS FINALLY TIME TO REINTEGRATE THE CAGE . [ * Green liquid drains from a holding cell. The body - Kris' body - thumps against its bottom. A hiss of steam punctuates the door opening, and the corpse (well, a zombie, really) stumbles out. ] I SHALL SEND A DOOR TO THE VESSEL .

SOUL SURVIVOR - a solo by snowy - (tw for severe self hatred, some panic attack stuff, and a bit of gore)

DO NOT DESPAIR . THERE ARE FAR MORE THAN TWO .

? ? ? ? ? ? ?

. . . WELL , I SUPPOSE I SHALL NEED TO RUN A FEW MORE TESTS . IF IT IS BEGGING TO BE PUT OUT OF ITS MISERY , SOMETHING MUST HAVE GONE AWRY .

I AM SURE THAT THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR ALARM .

I DO SUPPOSE IF THERE EVER WAS A TIME TO HERALD THE END OF THE WORLD HALLOWEEN WAS A RATHER APPROPRIATE SEASON .

. . . IN TRUTH , WERE THERE NOT ALREADY SO MANY CASUALTIES , I WOULD HAVE SIMPLY PERMITTED THEIR LEAVE . AND FROM THE LOOK OF THINGS , THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN TO THEIR PREFERENCE . HINDSIGHT IS TWENTY-TWENTY .

ITS BODY IS READY . . . . BUT , IT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN EERILY QUIET . PERHAPS IT IS NOT HAPPY AS IT IS ?

Like, hey, maybe we’re dealing with 𝓐𝓷𝓸𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓻 𝓗𝓲𝓶…

[ * The smell of mold and artificial lime floods the laboratory. ] [ * A mass of flesh, safely contained in a sort of stasis chamber, sprouts an arm and claws aimlessly before settling. ]

BENEFACTOR 5 ? YES , TODAY IS THE DAY . RELEASE THE HOUNDS .

. . . I WILL SEE WHAT ELSE IS ON . ANGEL ABOVE .

[ * A truly scathing side-eye. ]

I WOULD RATHER YOU THAN THE ONE CLAIMING TO BE OVULATING . PLEASE UNDERSTAND THE POSITION THAT I AM IN .

[ * Request denied. ]

HOW STRANGE . IT IS AN UNDERSTUDY , BUT I DO NOT QUITE KNOW HOW MUCH OF IT IT BELIEVES ITSELF TO BE . IS IT KRIS ? IS IT GEM ? IT WILL SCREAM , FOR IT WILL NOT KNOW . BUT NOBODY WILL BE THERE TO HEAR IT .

IT IS TIME .

NOW GEM , BEFORE YOU ARE RELEASED TO THE WORLD , I HAVE ONE LAST THING FOR YOU TO RECEIVE . AS YOU ARE TO BE THE CAGE ' S UNDERSTUDY , I INSIST THAT YOU TAKE THIS FOR THE ROAD .

HOW WONDERFUL . PLEASE ACCLIMATE YOURSELF TO YOUR ENVIRONMENT , IF YOU WISH ! I WILL GUIDE YOU HOME SOON .

ARE YOU AWAKE ? ARE YOU WELL ? [ * ... ] GEM . WE CALLED IT " GEM " .

[ * Felt like a turning point. ] [ * A muscle spasms and claws at the air. ]

[ * Electricity surges. A soul is there, and then it is not. Ambition flows through artificial veins as though it were true blood. Saccharine flesh is flayed and fed to a vessel, perpetuating an ouroboros. ] [ * ... ]

[ * . . . ] [ * The human parts have been reclaimed. A new cage will be built in the coming days, with all of the same pieces. A ship of Theseus, as it were. ] [ * Well. Almost all of the same pieces. ] [ * The brain needs to pilot the vessel. It'll make its transplant more seamless. ]
