    Meat falls asleep and begins to dream. In this dream, he falls asleep and begins to dream. If italics could stack the letters would end up sideways, or even upside down. But they don’t, some Meat wakes up all the way and turns upside down to compensate. Then, he turns himself inside out, and vanishes. Wow, such positive feedback. Although Meat did get lucky there, with the fact that the brave adventurer is suppressing his insanity.

    Atreides’s arm abruptly jerks to a stop, and Rebus takes his hand and grabs his wrist, forcing him to drop the knife via a pressure point. The knife falls, then moves too fast and stops in mid-air. Rebus calmly catches it. “I’m sure you’re familiar with this device, though I should like to change the rules again after a few moments of this.”
  3. DragonHeir
    Meat grins widely. “All the time, except when I’m not! Even then, sometimes. Just say drab eht nocab three times if you need me!”
  4. DragonHeir
    Oh, that’s why the name sounded familiar! Also, did he just ignore getting headbutted in the throat? (Or at least an attempt to do so) Rebus puts Atredies’s knife back together, assembling one for himself. Then he slowly stabs at his opponent.
  5. DragonHeir
    Rebus ducks, trying to make Atredies slam Rebus’s head into his own neck. “You want me to bring out some ray guns? That’s a pretty established tradition in the sci-fi industry.” The parrot-man trips, then a large foot comes down on top of him. Its toes hurt to think about. Meat does a few soup reps with his eyelids, then considering both requirements complete, ends the vision and tries to bring the brave adventurer to the Dreamsmith.

    The knife disintegrates, and Rebus smirks, catching what has been converted into a punch. “You can’t exactly take away my weapons and expect me to let you use yours.”
  7. DragonHeir
    Utility fog sneaks under the blade, then catapults it into the air on a barely visible pillar. Rebus drops his own Plotblade, which disappears just after it leaves his hand. “Enough of those for now, unless you can use it correctly. Let’s see if you’ve earned your title.” Alright… I’ll need to think, and I should eat some dinner and get some things done anyway.

    The parrot-man is hit in the head by the barrel, and spirals, dazed, to the ground. “Hooray! I’ll go tell the others!” He gets further away despite not moving, singing. “What he said was very strange to me - mass is simply energy twice-multiplied by c! Thus we will prove he had gum and insane - and therefore recover the life of my brain!” Back in the non-nested dream world, Meat juggles bowls of soup using his tongue, thinking. “His person is practically a plant! Ood I let im go?” he asks Omen. You want any specific enhancements? They’ll definitely do heart, which will oxygenate and pump blood better than a normal one, enhancing endurance and ability to hold her breath. And also, of course, kill her if it even runs out of fuel. The sedative takes effect, and Ruia fall unconscious to the sight of the android unfolding some sharp tools from its arm.
  9. DragonHeir
    They’d replace a few vital body parts, which would then function better but also need some fuel you as-of-yet cannot get anywhere else. This makes it very hard to defect.
  10. DragonHeir
    Uh, you good with Ruia being turned into a cyborg? Because that’s what these people are going to do. The robot sticks the needle into Ruia’s arm, and sedative fills her. The robot helps her to a table as it (presumably) begins to take effect.
  11. DragonHeir
    Wait, uh-oh. It was a metaphorical maze. An android stands around a corner formed by a mysteriously glowing cylinder, a bookshelf filled with glass containers in elaborately winding shapes, and a modern metal detector. “You are the new recruit correct.” it drones, “you will be given an entry position and enhancements. Stand still.” A needle unfolds from the robot’s hand. The parrot-man drops the telescope, floating back and forth. “We need evidence of Einstein’s sugar gum! So we can prove he is insane. I will explain, then you can hit me on the head.” My dreams are strange sometimes, alright? The shadowy figure once again attempts facial expressions which are concealed by the darkness. “I am the Ghost, but such an event is dangerous for one of my profession. You don’t know how mercenaries work, do you?”
  12. DragonHeir
    The door swings open and the guard waves her ahead. The room within is cramped and winding, various machines, shelves, and tables turning it to a maze. Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. Rebus wants to prove there are more axes, so he can then find a tertiary axis or allow someone else to do so. I’m thinking there could be a pair of axis representing stability and purity, respectively. The purity simply indicates whether the magic is mixed with anything, but stability could allow a new set of more volatile powers. The man-parrot falls over then hovers into the air. “I am capturing you now! You must have evidence!” Kion stops his bleeding with a “restoration” but cannot think of anything to do to help. As the Machination is an organization and not an entity, the letter is sent to the Ghost, who leads it. A shadowy figure is projected to the group, and stands there, speaking in a deep and gravelly voice. “I would be happy to speak of business. What do you wish us to do?”
  13. DragonHeir
    Rebus leaps off the blade, landing next to him on the platform he’d created to allow the stunt. “That’s not going to work very well… The fog is all around us - practically invisible and undetectable unless it’s locked together. You can cut the bonds, and even the foglets, but you’d have to get every one if you wanted to make it actually go away.” The aforementioned airborne platform suddenly disintegrates back into foglets, dropping both Narrators to the ground.
  14. DragonHeir
    Rebus pivots mid-air, kicking off of utility fog to turn upside down and meet the upward slash with his own “upward” swing. “You’re good at this. Much more interesting to fight than that fire guy.” he says, balancing there through impressive arm strength.
  15. DragonHeir
    Ruia appears in a hallway, a grey-skinned guard standing at the end of it, not moving or facing towards her. Despite this, and without any visible mouth movement, the guard speaks. “Recruits this way.” The thing in the darkness, before Ruia did anything, nibbled on the grapefruit some more. Then it reeled back, surprised. Rebus takes the blow and flies backwards, skidding to a stop as tendrils of utility fog grip the ground. There’s a foot-shaped gap in the white section of the armor, which quickly repaints itself. Rebus smiles, eyes up but his head still tilted down (this is called a Kubrick Stare, and it looks awesome). Then he summons his Plotblade back into his hand, what appears to be a flashlight is constructed in the other, and he runs forwards, jumping between skyward jets of utility fog. This man has a good grasp of dream logic. Behind him is a man, who your brain acknowledges is also a parrot, despite looking like a man. He awkwardly holds a telescope, brandishing it at the brave adventurer.

    "Teleportation!" he cries, but his intended destination was outside Ragnorok. He takes a spear to the side, the spell failing. @TwinStorm, you didn't respond to Rebus's actions in that post. The thing in the darkness nibbles on it, sharing with Ruia. @Halcyon The Only It is very surprised by the resulting flavor, and would have yelped if it could.
  17. DragonHeir
    Well... You'll see. You can try though. The mercenaries are teleported away by a man with one of Rebus's teleportation network nodes, the end of the pole it's on clearly ripped from the ground. The mysterious ball of darkness looks at the GrapefruitIt. Hello? it says in a language that few can speak.
  18. DragonHeir
    Several things exploded, most significantly the teleporter's grenades. The scorched remaining mercenaries collect what is left of their allies's equipment and bodies, and then hope another teleporter can come pick them up. We'll, looks like I'll be needing a new plotline. The Machination will be back, of course, but finding people is hard even with magic. I should go to sleep, probably, but I want something new to think about beforehand.
  19. DragonHeir
    the man lounged at the axe wielder The teleporter, being a teleporter, makes a portal in front of her and pairs it with another behind the man's head. She retreats, and the turret mercenary takes her place, throwing seeds at the man.
  20. DragonHeir
    Good typo there. Rebus might do that, if he was trying to annoy a particular fiery person into doing something rash. The stakes are metal, just sayn'. Inability to contend with technology is a disadvantage of having combustion powers, though this stuff runs on more flammable fuels. These two facts together made the previous fight rather bad, in my opinion. Maybe the rematch can actually be better. The axe wielder turns it sideways, sweeping the flat of the blade through the man in an attempt to turn his hands and arms to smoke. The turret person turns it on anyway, sending a chunk of metal at the man at high speed, as the turret jerks backwards several feet, leaving a rut in the ground. The teleporter makes a small gate into the man's lungs, drops a live grenade in, then closes it.
  21. DragonHeir
    The mercenary explodes, but another teleports behind the man and swings an axe crackling with electricity at him. A third stakes some sort of turret in the ground, vines growing around it as anchors. Good choice. The room warps as the brave adventurer walks through it, first getting longer then abruptly contracting and leaving a blank wall in front of him. The commotion beyond gets louder, and the sounds of both singing and fighting can be heard.
  22. DragonHeir
    The closest mercenary, a cyborg who apparently has a flamethrower for a hand, activates it and sends a plume of fire towards the man. This will go well…
  23. DragonHeir
    The Ghost resolves to bill the employee, whoever they were, if this person turned out to not be the brother. A gate opens behind him, and several people step out, ending with a woman in crude power armor who waves the gate closed. A vision forms around him, of a room full of random objects. A commotion can be heard off in the distance, but there are no windows. Haly was wondering who was with Lady Bug, and thought it was me and not you.
  24. DragonHeir
    The Ghost places multiple cells on standby, dismissing the illusory figure but maintaining the scrying.
  25. DragonHeir
    The Ghost takes the paper and pen back, and they disappear. “Do you know where your brother is to be found?”
