No no no! I have overcome many difficulties in my time with you humans, but this—this is something I simply will not do!" "Calamity, I just want you to put on a hat. It's cold. Your ears will freeze." "Hats are frightening and dangerous—" "…how?" "And I will not have them near my precious and fragile brain!" 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 Luckily Calamity has not yet entered the doughnut shop if that's his reaction to wearing a hat. Realized I'd almost forgotten about Lexi so, random appearance!

The Young Pyromancer Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 2 hours ago, DirtyOoklafaceFullOfLame said: It can if you're so nervous you forgot how to grammar. And the only thing I can picture Jade doing is this: Reveal hidden contents So, there'll need to be something else keeping her from running out of the donut shop. Someone grabbing her arm and offering some sort of argument should do, but…seriously, she's not going to like this. Because we're good at creating snacks that straddle the line between "delicious enough to make the angels sing" and "liable to summon an eldritch horror from the depths"? (Though in fairness, I've never tried Funyuns. Pizza rolls are more my thing. ) 2 hours ago, Ookla the Lurker said: What about if even more Epics showed up. Would that make her like it more? 2 hours ago, DirtyOoklafaceFullOfLame said: More Epics, possibly. Calamity would just scowl and be emo at everyone, so why not. I feel morally obligated to say "NO ABSOLUTELY NOT NO NO NO NO NO" to anything involving Nighthound, unless that thing happens to be his death. Okay, then sounds like Nicroburst and Blindside should enter! Maybe Funtimes should start running, and Nicroburst could do his thing again, and teleport everyone off the ground and Nate saves everyone, and then Funtimes is shocked enough to hear everyone out. Then they could work together, and Blank, Epoch, and Typhon could join together as the (mostly) benevolent Epic overlords to prevent them from messing up their plans! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it would only work if Nicroburst ends up bumping Nate, because he needs a chain to Bloodlight people, and the only other way would be if they all teleported to touch him and/or each other in the air. Which seems improbable. If he gets boosted, though, then he can just light the whole floor or possible ignore his human limitation to light the people directly. Or both, which would actually save them the pain of being Backlashed. EDIT: Which would work even if Nicro touched him after teleportation.

I find it ironic that Calamity, the Big Bad who created terrifying Epics like Steelheart and Obliteration, has more fears and phobias than Backtrack. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not be too hasty here. After all, Backtrack is definitely afraid of Calamity but I don't think even Calamity could be afraid of Backtrack.

This ruse is actually so brilliant that people rush into the shop to see what she's talking about, some of them unfortunately behind Jade and Nathan so they're still within view.
