"So... it... would... seem!" A guttural screeching sound emanated from Everyone’s now entirely black silhouette, and the energy surged forward with more power. That multiplication device of Everyone’s proved to be pretty useful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyAarakocra They/Them Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 Tocf appeared behind the void-eyed man in a puff of rainbow smoke. "I'm not good at one-liners, but just die, please." A spectral approximation of Nerdy's narrationblade appeared in Tocf's hand. He stabbed the void-eyed man in the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You use ascendant powers, in defiance of the law against Narration. Edited February 23, 2023 by xinoehp512 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilometers comes surging down, landing on his feet. I am going to kill that wretch. No one hurls Kilometers Fifty-lives and gets away with it. "It takes a lot more than that to finish Kilometers Fifty-lives scum! Perhaps I should teach you a lesson." Noticing the situation, he looks to the guide, ignoring the void-eyed man. "We know not of your laws. If you wish us to follow them, you must teach us them." The ally walks to Sequence, Everyone, and the brave adventurer.

Immortal Platypus Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 oh. Then ignore what the ally said. Kilometers is pretty much immune to those shenanigans, so what he said is still canon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I wasn't talking to you. She turned back to Everyone. Granted, your chaotic energy isn't Narration under common parlance, but the nature of the law acts upon all such reality-warping abilities. Such is the power of the Plotblade that is wielded by the Lord of this realm. She turned and glared at the void-eyed man. The same goes for you. Do not think I cannot tell what you were trying to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only those powers that do not violate the Continuity have any meaning, the guide explained cryptically. Beyond that, it is not a question of whether or not it can be done; it is instead a question of whether or not Onyx cares to administer judgement. 9 minutes ago, Being of Cacophony said: Also, how likely do you think it is that we actually get the Plotblade without a fight?

Everyone’s dark foggy glow faded, and they came back into view. “Hm.” They said, frowning. “So what you’re saying, is that teleporting is not okay here?

The energy resists being cut. 4 hours ago, Sequence said: Everyone’s dark foggy glow faded, and they came back into view. “Hm.” They said, frowning. “So what you’re saying, is that teleporting is not okay here? If that’s what you’re saying I’ll gladly stop.” Not necessarily. What you have been doing so far is most likely not enough to draw his ire. Just be warned that if Onyx feels that you are using too much power, he may impose limitations. 1 hour ago, Being of Cacophony said: "I see. And I'll take your silence as a no. Should we return to the normal time-stream then?" The guide bowed her head. Then she was gone. The inspector yawns, awakening. His eyes snap into focus as he surveys the scene, frowning. "Drop them," he commands. "But-" the void-eyed man objects. "Do you want me to take you to the castle or not?" The void-eyed man sputters, speechless, for a moment as the inspector fixes him with an even glare. At last, grumbling, he releases the energy holding the adventurer and Everyone in place. "This isn't the last you'll see of me," he threatens, grabbing the inspectors arm agressively. In a flash of black, the pair vanish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequence she/they Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 Everyone stretches as they are freed from the cage. "No excessive powers." They said. "Got it." Sequence nodded too.
