[CONTINUE] Week 1 || Act: mingle

[foundationmods]

Monday comes onto the snowy town once more, though it still looks as if it's 'night' as ever.

Then again, you are underground. That's just to be expected, considering no natural light can get down here in the first place. The Monsters around you are just as friendly as ever, despite this being your second 'time' trying this monday.

...Though....are there a few less Monsters here than there were before? ...Nah. You must be imagining it.

You still have a mission - and after the events of the last trial, you want to do your best to stop whatever is causing this.

But, hey. You really do have nothing but time now to figure it out.

Oho? Another member of the Brotherhood of Knittery? You've gotta stop being so multitalented, guy. You're gonna make me look bad! And that's really, really hard to do!

[ Giovanni starts perusing the shelves, trying to determine if the monster Dewey Decimal System bears any resemblance to the human one. Does he have the number for the knitting section memorized? No, but also, yes absolutely. (746.43, for the record.) ]

...Ssssoooooo. You're a cop, huh?

[ His tone is casual, but his back remains to Chuuta as he speaks. ]

[homeecspacecop]

[Chuuta can keep going when it comes to multitalented housework things, don't test him Gio.]

Yeah, we're space cops.

[soupervillain]

[ noooo stop showing up Giovanni and his two talents!! ]

Uh. Hypothetically, if someone here committed a bunch of crimes that weren't in space... would you still, y'know, arrest them?

[ He scoots one leg closer to the exit, ready to bolt, depending on Chuuta's response. You'll never take him alive! ]

[homeecspacecop]

[You're not being subtle at all there, Giovanni.]

Hypothetically, if someone was an alien and committed crimes on a planet that doesn't have laws about alien crimes, then we'd arrest them.

But it's not like anyone has the same job here as they do back home.

[soupervillain]

[ Giovanni puffs out his chest, offended. Any plans of escape are momentarily forgotten. ]

I do! I'm still a Banzai Captain! Just 'cause I'm not in my world anymore doesn't mean I can't keep fighting the evil fight! I have a ton of minions here and everything!

...If we're still speaking hypothetically, that is!

[homeecspacecop]

I guess it depends on what you mean by "evil".

[soupervillain]

Like... stealing stuff?

[homeecspacecop]

... why are you stealing things?

[soupervillain]

So I can turn them in to the higher-ups and work my way through the Banzai Blaster ranks until I become a Banzai Baron! And then, I assume, rule the world somehow! Also, because some stealable stuff is just really cool!

...Also, it's me. The hypothetical guy. I feel like I need to address that in case it was confusing.

[homeecspacecop]

[That's stupid.]

It's really stupid.

[soupervillain]

No it's not! It's my life's purpose! What's stupid about it?!

[homeecspacecop]

You're stealing stuff to give to people so you can get promoted to maybe rule the world. Nobody's going to actually promote you to that, since you'll turn into their competition.

[Chuuta's right, but maybe his world works differently than ours!]

That would be even more stupid.

[soupervillain]

No, see, getting promoted wouldn't make me rule the world, but it would give me an entire organization of minions at my command! Then I could take those minions and do the world-ruling thing my own way! See? It's foolproof!

[homeecspacecop]

No one's going to promote you enough for you to get your own minions. You're going to be stuck as a minion forever.

[soupervillain]

Okay, one, harsh? Two, shows what you know, because I already have my own minions! A loyal cadre in my world, just waiting for their boss's return, and also a bunch here! On this very mission, even! So you can just... shut your super cool space cop face!

[homeecspacecop]

Really? Who are your minions here?

[soupervillain]

Do you want their real names, or their minion names?

[homeecspacecop]

They have minion names? [You know what? This might as well happen.]

[soupervillain]

All minions have minion names! Even I, the humble boss standing before you today, once had a minion name! And it was a really cool and intimidating one!

[ It was Creampuff. ]

Anyway, the ones on this mission are... [ He starts to tick them off on his fingers. ] Deathseeker, Death Charmer, Pepper Spray, Super King, Sawbones, and Curtain Call.

[ Chuuta might need it explained who exactly these people are. Unless he'd have more fun guessing. ]

[homeecspacecop]

What was your minion name?

[He'll figure out who Pepper Spray is soon enough...]

[soupervillain]

.........Would you believe Doomkiller?

[homeecspacecop]

... no.

[soupervillain]

[ sigh :c ]

...Creampuff.

[homeecspacecop]

[That gets a snerk, which develops pretty quickly into full-blown laughter.]

Sorry! Sorry!

[Creampuff!]

[That just gets Chuuta giggling again.]

[soupervillain]

[ I mean... he'd probably laugh at that name too. Giovanni bears this with moderately good grace. ]

It's a comment on my superior baking skills. For the record.
