Pyk nodded. “They are quite difficult to create, at least before a human has created one.”

[Initiating welcome process.

Loading.

Please hold.]

A fanfare sounded, and a slightly cheesy voice played in their ears.

[Hello, soldier of the future! My name is SI-3 and I’m here to guide you… to the FUTURE! All sets sold separately. Time travel is not a guaranteed result of using this product.]

Speakers near your ears, but the AI is just downloaded into the suit, not specifically the helmet.

It’s like an add  

Asher nods “hello SI-3” asher walked around a bit to get used to the suit.

is the weapon gonna be a thing you summon like a shard blade or is it in a sheath?

Shoe blocked the first, whirling around towards where he'd heard the hunter teleport.

Beosta quickly realized what was happening. "Shoe," she hissed. "Keep your back to me. Then he won't sneak up on us."

Nogard fell silent. They were doing the right thing... weren't they?

He avoided looking at Gail.

The Ancient Ghanderflaffle led Nogard in silence through at least a dozen corridors before getting to the teleporter room. "Here we are child. I do hope you are able to prove your innocence."

"Ooh, let's see it!"

"Well, all right then." Subversion started towards the Enuller. (invisibly)

2 hours ago, TwinStorm said:

The Enuller stabbed at Platypus's head as he fell, using the time it brought him to assess the situation. Retreat. Xanine, cover my escape. Seven-Souled will be pleased.  he said. A hunter leapt out of a portal, falling into another one, so as to fire a shot at both Shoe and Beosta and Platypus. The hunter near Shoe and Beosta disappeared through a portal.

"Oh, bother, he's gone. Oh well." Subversion appeared next to Bacon, hands on her hips. "I totally could've taken him." She seemed completely defenseless, no weapon in hand, posture unguarded. Behind her, however, around the area where someone might pop out of a portal to try shooting her in the back, the air shimmered very slightly for a brief moment.

"Then we'll steal one." said Perseus. "Think about it. The greatest heist in the Thread. Anybody who gets between us will be utterly obliviated."

A thought came into Perseus's head. ask him about Endings.

It's in a sheath. The actual armor caan also be stored inside the weapon when you want to take it off quickly, and can be extracted from the weapon and put on if you need it. This requires your fingerprint.

oh btw cool PFP

The armor continued in a cheery voice. [I see you have noticed the aided movement! The suit will be actively reading your intent, and it can aid you in any task you wish to undertake! The first thing I wish for you to do is stow your suit.]

The suit started to shrink away, until it was all contained in the knife. It returned then. [Now do it yourself! And do not worry! We have your fingerprint recorded, so only you can take it out of the knife!]

Erasing objects is no more difficult than creating them. For us, it is a great deal easier. The reason you cannot is because I am reinforcing it with my will. You must overcome that will in order to succeed.

Lettuce yawned. "Oh, hey, Sasha," he mumbled. "Anything happen while I was sleeping?"

Lettuce peered at Blue. "Didn't I talk to you earlier?" he asked. "Told you. No color."

Nogard followed gratefully. "Thank you. Sorry to bother you..."

 

"Oh hey, Subversion! I got a new dog!"

Tenth redoubled his focus, struggling against the Ennuller's defenses.

Gail had zoned out, having thought she saw Beosta's shadow down the corridor. Also, Qodi was finally awake. "Hmm? What are we doing?"

Perseus frowned, confused, but asked anyway. "What about Endings?" he said, acting casual.

"Ooooh," Lady Bug said, pulling some burrs out of her long mermaid sleeves. "Endings. That there is an interesting topic, my boy. Probably."

How were they supposed to hit him if he kept teleporting like that? She pulled out her crossblade again.

Shoe blocked more incoming shots. We're more vulnerable out in the open. If we were in a smaller space, with our shields we'd have the advantage.

As he pushed, he felt an iron will resist him.

"We're teleporting- to the main base of the Brave Adventurers, I think." Nogard glanced at the ancient Ghanderflaffle. "Thank you. Should we just... step through?"

@xinoehp512

Bacon frowned. "What about Endings? I don't know where it is, if that's what your asking. I believe it was last seen in the possession of a character named Moni, but who knows- I could be totally wrong about that."

"Oh," Gail said. "Okay." She stepped through without waiting for an answer. 

"Oooooo," Lady Bug said. "What's Endings? Oh-- is it one of those fancy swords everyone seems to love so much?"

Is there a Beginnings plot blade? Asking for a friend

He looked towards one of the nearby buildings. Let's just make our way over there.

There would be, yes. Every plot concept has a corresponding Plotblade.

It took several minutes, but they did arrive at a wall, which at least allowed them to flare out a little bit. It took a good 90 degrees out of their range of worry.

Does anybody own it?

On the other side of the portal, several brave adventurers waited. "You're one of the prisoners?"

"Moni? Any other Plotblades? Hmmm, Endings seems appropriate." he said, turning to Lady Bug. "Do you know of any Plotblades that aren't in use?"

Even as they spoke, their surroundings were lit on fire by the hunter, who had paused long enough to speak from the shadows. "Accept death's embrace, foolish ones."
