MOCK WEEK - WEEK 1 TRIAL

It was noon on Friday.

No matter where they were, no matter what they were doing...the moment the chimes rang out through the hall, they felt a change.

The world...began to expand, as they felt themselves leaving the world they were on, and towards another, much larger world...🗈



This new world looked like...the inside of an ornate courtroom, like something that wouldn't be too far from some kind of grand fantasy novel.

The Witch, Lambdadelta was there, sitting in the most important place, smiling brightly at everyone. There was no music to be heard, but... perhaps on another plane, in another place, someone else heard music as they gazed upon the proceedings.

As they looked around, they might have also been surprised to see that their forms had changed - perhaps only slightly, or a much more dramatic change. It seemed like this place demanded a different form in some way, even if it was just a change of clothing.

...There was a deep silence in the room, one that no one wanted to break. It was the faint tension in the air, like the moments before a race or a competition begins.

Yesterday had been the start of the game. But now, armed with all they knew...now, they had to truly go up against the Witch, and somehow.....win.

Right?

No way in hell.

[If his fists couldn't hit her he knows a weapon he doesn't really know how to use would be pointless. But that doesn't seem to be discouraging him]

Then what will you do?

[She seems vaguely interested.]
overlordad: (9)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
I told her she'd pay if she did it, and I don't make threats lightly. Even if I can't win I have to play it out- it's on principle.
artificialhighness: (017)

[personal profile] artificialhighness 2019-02-17 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
So, your wish is to make good on your threats to the witch?

[The phrasing is very deliberate.]
overlordad: (74)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
She took something I had a claim on- even if it's just for the weekend. I can't allow that-!
artificialhighness: (078)

[personal profile] artificialhighness 2019-02-17 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
And what was your claim?
overlordad: (65)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
[That... actually makes him pause, flustered]

I... hm...
artificialhighness: (when will robots have wifi)

[personal profile] artificialhighness 2019-02-17 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
You do have one, don't you?

[Prod. Prod.]
overlordad: (76)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
We made a deal...
artificialhighness: (025)

[personal profile] artificialhighness 2019-02-17 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Of course. What kind of a deal was it?
overlordad: (84)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
After he got manhandled by the goat I told him I'd teach him to get out of grabs like that. We fought on the beach. It was an investment: you teach someone something so you can get something out of them learning it. Having allies is useful...
artificialhighness: (078)

[personal profile] artificialhighness 2019-02-17 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Do you make deals like that with all your children, as well?

[That seems to be his M.O. as of the moment, after all.]
overlordad: (45)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
...

Vanitas isn't my kid...

[He frowns, unsure]
artificialhighness: (053)

[personal profile] artificialhighness 2019-02-17 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
No?

[PLS CONFIRM ANSWER.]
overlordad: (22)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't summon or fuck him into existence. That's usually how this works.
artificialhighness: (when will robots have wifi)

[personal profile] artificialhighness 2019-02-17 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
I assumed that you adopted.

[She was not aware of the summoning clause.

Demon families are even weirder than robot families.]
overlordad: (26)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I mean guess that's also true.

[Does that mean he adopted Vanitas. Is that how this works?]

[personal profile] ladyscarred 2019-02-17 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
What are you going to do then?

[It's dull, there's not a lot she could add to all of this.]
overlordad: (41)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Ruin her fucking weekend, that's what.
ladyscarred: (before I forget my feelings for you)

[personal profile] ladyscarred 2019-02-17 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh it's a manly pride thing, right. Sigh.]

... Even if you managed that, she'd just teleport away. That's how witches are.
overlordad: (9)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
If I don't, then when Vanitas comes back, if he does, how am I supposed to call myself someone worth teaching anything?

[He snarls... though it's funny- before he always told his kids not to pick a fight unless you know you'll win. But having a foe he has no chance against just digs into him in a way he's never had to deal with before]
ladyscarred: (So why won't it disappear?)

[personal profile] ladyscarred 2019-02-17 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
...You were calling yourself that..? What were you teaching him?

[She just blinks at him. Because what?]
overlordad: (51)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
I promised to teach him how to fight hand to hand better. We practiced on the beach.

[More like they just threw hands for a while but still]
ladyscarred: (Grief is nobody's fault)

[personal profile] ladyscarred 2019-02-17 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
You did a good job of that...

[so good he killed a guy, she cannot argue that.]
overlordad: (83)

[personal profile] overlordad 2019-02-17 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Kid already could fight better than most, honestly. Better than I could at that age.
