The Intent reaches the Nullite, and the metal collects fully into a sphere. Half the arm ceases to exist as the remainder drops through the floor, leaving a hole. A pulse of ordered darkness destroys the air around it, sucking more nanomachines in. The arm, now an orb of grey metal and magical blackness, stops two floors down. It has Ennulled the gravity and its own trajectory, allowing it to hover in place, and lightning arcs off of it. Security personnel in the form of utility fog clouds have already attempted to detain it, but fry, fall apart, or are wiped from existence as the electricity and ordered darkness make contact with them.

Bat sighed. “I bet she’s really smart, too,” he said. “And that’s why you’re so smart. And she probably really loves writing you, because of how similar you are.” Disclaimer: these are Bat’s views.

AWWWW HALY “Well…” he frowned thoughtfully. “Probably some guy with a computer. Someone who knows what it’s like to be alone. And… and either he hates me for having things he doesn’t, or he loves me for it.” He took a deep breath. “And if he hates me, then this won’t end well for me, because he’s too bitter. If he loves me, then… either it’ll end badly, and he’ll cry, or it’ll end perfectly, and he’ll be happy.”

At least he thought those were strawberries. “If my Author’s a girl, she probably doesn’t hate me,” he said. “If I’m a nice person.

Plus, she still looked nervous. He didn’t want her to be nervous. He hugged her again.

On the Great Wizard's innocence, I mean." “He probably didn’t want to steal the Plotblade for himself.” Unintelligible responded. “But his actions did have harmful consequences.” He took another sip of tea. “So I’d say he’s partially guilty?” 6 minutes ago, Halcyon The Only said: “We’re gonna be okay,” he whispered. “I promise.
