Bio on OC: Lucifer "Hoxton" Margatroid

Currently a W.I.P

"Did you miss me you wankers?" - James Hoxworth (2014)
"Nothing you dream of is impossible for me to accomplish." - Lucifer Margatroid
\ refers to (James Hoxworth (post-Payday 2)| Makai Form*
Name: Lucifer "James Hoxworth" Margatroid
Nicknames: Hoxton, Morningstar, (The) Devil, Demon Angel, (The) Demon, (The) Clown(s from TV), (Bank) Robber, Thief, Luci, (The) Beyonder, Jim Hoxworth
Age*: 39 (Birth year: 1981)
Common Location(s): Lunar Capital, Golden Grin Casino, Makai
Income: Fluctuates between hundreds of thousands (USD, at worst) to tens of billions (USD, at peak) per month [Golden Grin Casino]. At least tens of thousands [Crimes].
Appearance:

Hair*: Brown|Golden Blonde
Eye Color*: Hazel|Golden, Light Purple
Ethnicity*: Caucasian|Makai
Height*: 5'11|Omnipresent
Style*: Suits, Ballistic Vests|Divine Body
Build*: Thin|Irrelevant
Accessories: Clown Mask, Horns, 6 wings|Horns, Halo, infinite wings

Species*: Human (Demonically Possessed)|Demon Angel (God)
Language(s): English, Japanese, Chinese, Demon, Angel|Omnilingual
Powers*: All forms of Magic, Peak Lunarian Condition (Immortality, god-like physicality) Reality Bending, Limited demonic powers, Demonic Form, Infinite Willpower|All previous abilities taken to the highest level, Omnipotence (power-only, being surpassed only by his mother and having no equivalents after that), Nigh-Omniscience, Omnipresent, Invulnerable, Creation, Destruction
Power Explanations:

All forms of magic: It could literally be anything considered magic, demonic magic, angelical magic, magic for the sake of magic, go wild!
Peak Lunarian Condition: the average Lunarian would be considered superhuman compared to a human on Earth, Hoxton, being a demon, combined with his purity, is one of, if not the physically strongest being on the Lunar Capital, only surpassed by the gods that live there. Additionally, all Lunarians will not die of old age and Hox is no exception.
Reality Bending: while Hoxton can at best bend the rules of reality, he can't outright warp it to his liking, at least not in comparison to his true form.
Demonic powers: apart from magic, Hoxton's demonic powers are enough for everyone to consider him a "demon."
Infinite Willpower: Hoxton can do anything he wills, as long as it doesn't overwhelm the body of James Hoxworth (current host)
Omnipotence: Lucifer is all powerful (even more so as "The Beyonder"), being able to do things such as grant others omnipotence (and could as easily strip them) and kill himself without effort and revive if he so wishes. Additionally, because he's all powerful, with nobody can surpass him (except for Shinki, who granted him the gift and could as easily strip it)
Nigh-Omniscience: Lucifer knows absolutely everything about Makai, but has to experience every realm outside of it by himself to gain knowledge.
Invulnerable: No, not even Doomguy Co., 100+% Shaggy, and other meme gods in their true state could even dream of touching Lucifer. At best they'll serve to piss him off before being nothing but ideas into people's heads, if they get lucky that is.
Creation & Destruction: Can create and destroy absolutely anything effortlessly.

Career: C.E.O. of the Golden Grin Casino (since November 2018), Thief (since 2011, still ongoing), Swindler (since 1998, still ongoing).
Hobbies: Robbery, swindling, running the Golden Grin Casino, enjoying the Lunar Capital, throwing parties, relaxing on beaches, "breaking in" Alice's house|Sleeping in Pandæmonium, creating things in Makai, organizing surprise trips, sleeping in the World of Ice and Snow, embodying Makai.
Family: James Hoxworth (current host), Shinki (biological mother), Watatsuki no Yorihime (wife), Alice Margatroid (adopted sister), Yumeko ("older sister" and maid), literally any demon in Makai and Sariel (created family), Watatsuki no Toyohime (sister-in-law), Eirin Yagokoro and other Shinto kami (distant relatives), unnamed Hoxworth couple (adoptive parents), unnamed brothers (adoptive brothers)
Friends: Marisa Kirisame (burglary trainee), Rochelle "Clover" (mentee), "Bonnie" McGee (friend), Aldstone (butler), the Payday Gang (criminal crew, involves Bain and Locke), anyone involved with Eientei (proxy to the Watatsuki Sister's relationship with Eirin), Scarlet Devil Mansion (swindling victims, except Hong Meiling, Patchouli Knowledge, and Flandre Scarlet), Byakuren Hijiri (ex-prisoner of Makai, occasional therapist), gamblers (one-sided friendship, often victims of his scams and their hubris), Reisen (pet), Lord Tsukuyomi (common victim of Hox's trickery, but pretty stable friendship apart from that)
Enemies: Matt Roscoe (two-time traitor, torture victim), Hector Morales (ratted on Hox), "The Dentist" (traitor), police departments (enemies from his time as a bank robber), Federal Bureau of Intervention (especially for office agents, SWATs, and Hostage Rescue Teams), GenSec Industries, Department of Homeland Surveillance via the Force Z Elite Assault Legion, Murkywater, Kataru (groups that attempted to stop the Payday Gang), Overkill M.C. and other various gangs (victims of the Payday Gang), Houston (claims he "stole" Hox's identity, shared animosity), Captain Neville Winters (recurring enemy sent to stop the Payday Gang), anyone with a hatred against demons (shared animosity and defeated by Hox numerous times effortlessly), people he's swindled and/or were in debt to (for obvious reasons)
Information about Makai: The known dimension is not "a dimension," it's actually it's own separate cosmos, being connected to realms with large concentrations of spiritual and/or magical energy. Hoxton believes that Makai is simply Shinki's willpower (even higher than his) that manifested itself and the events that happened there is just her imagination running wild with the only "real" entities there being both of them.

Background: A demonic prince birthed from Shinki's womb, he grew up a good childhood, being a master of magic and the next creator god. Eventually, an event known as "Mystic Square" shook him up and he left for the U.K. where he fell into the life of crime after having a few mental problems. Originally one of the core members of the Payday Gang, Hoxton was arrested for 2 years and had flashbacks to his original life in prison. Being broken out, crime was his escape from reality and he committed more to suppress his memories. Eventually, after the Payday Gang disbanded, he bought the Golden Grin Casino and gambled alot until he started to wonder, "Who was my mother?" Eventually, fate, or a moon god decided to give Hoxton an important female figure in his life. Marrying the Lunar Princess, Watatsuki no Yorihime. Hoxton was pretty happy until he realized he had different origins.

Summer 2019 funny dialogues compilation (Part 2)

Part 1 here.

CASINO DE RAKUICHI RAKUZA

For this one, I'm just gonna do Okita J's origin story. Very guda guda.
Mashu: But why is Okita-san a Swimsuit Swordsmaster…? You were supposed to remain at Chaldea…
Okita: A-Actually there is a deep reason behind this, though explaining it will take super long… blah blah blah Miburo~…
Nobu: Eh? We’re getting a flashback or something?
(getting a flashback)
Okita: La la la~ Yay, Swimsuit Okita-san’s great victory! Man~ how many years did it take to nag them for this swimsuit… it’s this super depressing arc where years dragged on while Nobu kept poking me non-stop for being a swimsuitless pleb. Oh well, who cares, today’s the day! That’s right, finally…! Finally this Okita-san has gotten herself a swimsuit! Actually, isn’t this swimsuit too much of an overkill! Check out this ribbon on my chest, so kewt! Hehehehehe… I wonder how Master, Nobu and the rest of the gang will think…
(wishful scenario STARTO)
Swimsuit Nobu: Eeek!? What’s the meaning of this Okita!? Where does that sickeningly cute swimsuit comes from------!? When you’re that cute ain’t it my Great Defeat or something!?!???
Okita: Hehehe… yep yep! Even dumb Nobu can figure as much. If Okita-san dons a swimsuit, my charm will skyrocket to the level of Strongest Shinsengumi ☆ Waifu of the Bakumatsu period! Not even an overstatement!
S Nobu: Damn you, I always thought the best you could get would be some shitty lame Quick T-shirt, how foolish I was! Ain’t that the most disgustingly cute swimsuit in this century!
Chacha: Yeah that looks absurdly awesome! So awesome Chacha can’t help but to take off my hat to show some respect, or rather, take off my kabuto! To begin with summer’s too hot! His Highness’ kabuto basically steams my brain alive!
Majin: Sasuga the original me, your swimsuit is stupendous. Be careful or your cuteness will become a target of the Counter Force, okay.
Kagetora: This kind of godliness, even if you were to be praised as the incarnation of Bishamonten, no even as Benten-sama’s incarnation nobody would even argue back. More specifically speaking you could even get some OP legendary-leveled passive skill like Divinity A+ or something! Probably!
Mori: Uhyahahahaha! What the heck is that outfit! Looks right at home with the kabuki folks! You could even make the wise Rikyuu go into some kind of barefooted tap-dancing frenzy!
Hijikata: Hmph… I never noticed it until now, but who knew you little brat possess this much charm in you. You shot my kokoro right outta my torso. How tight do you normally wrap sarashi, huh? But I expect no less from Captain of Shinsengumi’s First Squadron, Okita Souji. On this occasion how about changing your title into DAINAMAITO ☆ OKITA?
Ryouma: I must say that swimsuit is some transcendental bomb. Japanese sun without a doubt rises from Okita-kun. You agree, Oryou-san?
Oryou-san: Yeah for a human that swording punk is way too pretty, don’t tell me she’s an ULTRA fairy who fell from the sky? I’ll give ya a case of frogs as celebration.
Izou: Wassap! Sasuga Strongest Bishoujo Swordsman-sama of the Bakumatsu period! This shitty small-fry manslayer Izou has no choice but to lower me head before ya! Please let me massage your feet?
Okita: Aww~ stop you guys, you’re embarrassing me. Welp but it’s true tho! After all Okita-san’s swimsuit version is too cute for this world!
S Nobu: Right on, Okita! Well, once again, let the shitty-lame-T-shirt-wearing me who cannot even hold a candle to your foot congratulate you, genius swordsman swimsuit bishoujo Okita-sama, along with everybody else! Grats to getting a swimsuit! Congratulation!
And everybody else: Congratulation! Congratulation! Congratulation! x9
Okita: (blushes) Thank you very much everyone! Thank you very much! I give my thanks to the Bakumatsu period for staying alive up to now and to all the Shinsengumi! Swimsuit Okita-san, great, super duper great victory~!!
(back to reality)
Okita: --something like that definitely will happen! La la la la~! I gotta show everyone immediately!
Off she runs, when from the other end of the hallway comes XX-chan.
XX: Man! Who would have thought the moment I was done making instant ramen they would make me sortie in a jiffy! Not my lucky day! But I’m a resourceful space detective after all, didn’t even take me more than 3 minutes to destroy my targets! Another day, another space crisis averted. I’m definitely getting bonus pay this year! Oh yeah, since I’m back so fast my ramen shouldn’t get soggy yet! Wait for me, my last cup of ramen this month!
(and then HIGH SPEED ACTION IMPACTO!)
XX: Ouchie ouchie… excuse me… I wasn’t paying attention… You’re that Okita-san from the boiler room right?
Okita: (ded)
XX: You alright? It was just a little bump, and I don’t see any scratches on you…
Okita: (ded)
XX: Umm, why aren’t you replying? Hello? Anybody home?
Okita: (ded)
XX: CQ? CQ? Respond if you hear this pleeaaase?
Okita: (ded)
XX: …d-don’t tell me.
Okita: (ded)
XX: …S-She died!?
(skip to some suspicious-looking factory)
XX: T-This is serious… If I get caught for killing non-hostile protists (wow, rude, what are humans to you, molds??), they’ll definitely reduce my bonus this year, actually would they even give me any!? At this rate I might not even be able to afford instant ramen next month…! Then there is no choice but to do whatever it takes to save her, WITH THE POWER OF SPACE SCIENCE! Fortunately I somehow managed to find this mysterious factory, so I might be able to put together something with spare parts from my armor… No, I must be able to! Go me! The God of Bonus Pay will watch over you! This is one battle I cannot afford to lose!
XX: Now, commencing the remodeling operation! Errrr, this part goes here… For now let’s install this Galaxy Cell Drive on her instead of a life support system, and for a power source Imma use this energy gem I picked up that time from the primordial universe without knowing jack about it. All that’s left is to install this rather-obsolete-by-Universe-standards jetpack onto the reactor…
XX: And done! Theoretically perfect! Theoretically! Now, rise from the dead! My bonus! …nope I mean, warrior born anew! SWITCH, ON! REVOLUTION!
Okita: …(groggy)
XX: All right, it was a success!
Okita: Wha-!? What on earth…?
XX: Glad to see you have come to your senses. I’m just an innocent person who found you unconscious in the hallway and decided to give you medical assistance.
Okita: T-That’s so kind of you… I’m sorry, my health has always been frail, so I can drop dead with just a little nudge.
XX: I agree. Now I’m even more convinced I did nothing wrong here. Btw you can rest assured now, since this jetpack will be protecting your body from now on.
Okita: T-That’s so kind of you… I see…, wuh, hold up? Jetpack? EEEEHHH!? Wha-What the heck is this!? Je-Jetpack!?
XX: It’s actually a Space Combative Gadget With Built-in Life Support System, are you not satisfied with it? I guess it’s a little outdated but for the civilization level of this planet it’s definitely an OOPArt. Did you know if you try hard enough you might even be able to do air combat and stuff?
Okita: NOPE NOPE NOPE, to begin with a jetpack!? Though I might not look like it, Okita-san is still a mainstream bishoujo swordsman of the Bakumatsu period you know!? How weird would a jetpack be!? What, a Bakumatsu Jetpack!? (fwoosh~~) Woaaah! I’m f-flying!?
XX: Ha ha ha. ‘Course you’re flying, you have a jetpack after all. You have been reborn, Okita Souji-san. That’s right, you’re now the JET swordsman who soars through the blue sky… OKITA – J – SOUJI! (comes up with an appropriate name)
Okita: OKITA – J – SOUJI!? Wuh… what the hell is J supposed to mean!?
XX: Jetpack, so, J.
Okita: That’s not the problem here! I can’t walk outside like this, please take it back! (struggling) H-Huh? Hey, it won’t come off…?
XX: No it won’t. It’s your life support system too. Errr, according to the manual for the M-DRIVE core… what’s the operating duration………. AHHHH!?
Okita: W-What is it?
XX: M-My deepest apology. I was rushing too much so I didn’t read the manual carefully enough. The life support system will operate in 72 hours, that is, 3 days in Earth time…
Okita: What were you doing, operating on me without reading the manual. I’m not a plastic model, what would you do if you had confused the left leg with the right one… WAIT 3 DAYS!? MY LIFE ENDS IN 3 DAYS!?
XX: The manual says so… I-I’m terribly sorry, I didn’t intend for this to happen…
Okita: WHAT ARE WE GUNNA DO!?
XX: P-Please don’t panic! At times like this, we should calm down and pour ourselves a cup of instant ramen.
(she actually starts making instant ramen… AND THEN THE AHOGE TWITCHES!)
XX: …My light bulb is lit! Holy Grail! That’s it, at times like this we gotta get ourselves a Grail! If we have a Grail we can do whatever we want! IIRC you can win a Grail if you join and win the Swimsuit Swordsmaster Tournament that’s being held in Vegas right now, right!?
Okita: S-Swimsuit Swordsmaster Tournament you say…!
And that’s all for the hilarious backstory of J Okita-san.

Summer 2019 funny dialogues compilation (Part 1)

Hi all :) In these posts I’ll be sharing some of the fun bits of dialogues from the Swimsuit Swordsmasters summer event. They are mostly short and fun exchanges between the characters that you can enjoy reading along with the summaries of the chapters that you can find down here.
Here are the summaries of the Las Vegas summer event from last year, done by various good souls. With the exception of the translations by pplovesk and shinyklefkey , most of these were summarized by Itqan Madani on their Facebook. They used to be posted on reddit by kakarot12310 but since the posts have been removed for some reason I'll link directly to Itqan Madani instead.

The new Chaldea Director's first swimsuit event:
Goldolf: “I heard you need permission for leyshift so I came to see. What exactly is this? Swimsuit? Swordsmasters? Don’t do pranks more than twice a month. Or has the Japanese heat wave got to you that badly? Ah well, I do understand the wish for a summer vacation. A commander’s job is to ensure the subordinates’ welfare. No benefits, no labor, right? However, however, you see...”
“AREN’T WE! IN AN EMERGENCY! SITUATION! RIGHT NOW!? Hasn’t the surface been wiped blank! Where are you gonna find a beach, let alone walking around in swimsuits?! Do you understand!? We ain’t gonna have a summer of our dream where we mess around in some five star resort, are we!”
Gudao: “Got it.”
Gol: “LIKE HELL YOU DID. YOU GOT NOTHING! Can’t have Swimsuit Swordsmasters if you don’t leyshift to America, how the hell am I supposed to swallow that ludicrousness!? I’m not swallowing that! You’re lucky I haven’t questioned your sanity!”
Vinci: “Now now commander, calm down. There there~”
Gol: “Telling me to calm down is one thing but stop patting my belly already...”
Vinci: “C’mon, haven’t things been like that always? As long as there is a wish to a Holy Grail-equivalent of magical resource, a singularity can emerge. It juuuust happens to be Swimsuit Swordsmasters in America this time. What’s so strange about that?
Gol: “...
... hey, am I that guy? Am I the crazy one here?”
Holmes: “Ha. Ha. Ha. Well then Commander, you will grant permission, won’t you?”
Gol: “Why can you smile with such a straight face... SCARY! YOUR SMILE IS SCARING ME!”
Upon arriving at Las Vegas:
Siegfried: “This city is false. Everything here is formed from the battle of the Swordsmasters. This city is not unlike a battlefield itself. I feel the call of battle rousing my blood. It’s not within myself, but this Heroic Outfit is speaking to me”
Hoku: “(this guy is so cool! I wanna imitate him...) y-yeah, I also feel excited. It’s not me. It’s the swords speaking to me.”
Sieg: “I see, you too are burdened by the whispers of the swords. Must be painful.”
Hoku: “(No good, too cool! I might be taken away if I let my guard down! No, I can’t let this get to me yet! I still need to become the best swimsuit swordsmaster! I’ll defeat anyone, ancestors, please watch over me!)”
Mashu: “why is she all silent now...”
Sieg: “she’s facing her destiny. Let us treat her gently.”
Mashu: “r-right.” Gudao: “destiny...”
Sieg: “that’s right, destiny.” Hoku: (tremble furiously!)
Sieg: I understand. Her trembling stance is what the orientals call the battle trance! Hoku: (this man, how much more is he going to make me shaken!?)
Hoku: Hehe. (playing cool) Sieg: What a fearless smile. As expected, donning four swords is naught a matter to you.
Hoku: (blush more furiously!) Sieg: Oh, she’s in a battle trance again...
“The sunlight, the tan, the wet skin, the cute little boys! Summer is the best!!!”
(Musashi, being an open onee-san, 2019)
Apparently Musashi has been trekking on foot half a day from Grand Canyon to Las Vegas. “No udon, no burger, just walk and walk and walk...” And then she is ashamed to show up in front of us (because event spoiler blah blah blah) so...
“H A I, K O N I C H I W A, tourists-S A N! I’m just a regular American Heroic Spirit D E S U!”
Sieg: “you’re American...?” Musashi?: “Y E ~ S U! Check out this W E S T E R N bikini, perfect as a cowboy gunman right? K A T A N A & P I S T O L double wielding! O H Y E A A A!”
Guda:
Option 1: nope nope nope nope nope nope
Option 2: nope nope nope nope nope nope
And this little gem:
Gudao: A bunny suit? / Umm, aren’t you supposed to be a Swimsuit Swordsmaster too?
Bunny king: I am Swimsuit Lion King. The great owner of the Casino Camelot. There is no mistake. Why because, my suit... is water resistant.

HIMEJI SURVIVAL CASINO

Anne and Mary scene where Kotaro is able to record their battle tactics (that you definitely want to read):
Gang member: wheeze… wheeze… wheeze Finally caught you now. Damn cheeky girl, took me ages to track you down! (perverted laughs) But it was worth it hehehee…
Anne: Kyaa~ Don’t~ (monotone) What kinds of depravity would you subject me to?
Gang member: What do you mean, what kinds… Hiihiihii, don’t play dumb!
Samurai: (menacing giggles) Kukuku… It goes without saying… (WHIPS OUT KIARA P0RN!) We’ll have you read out loud this phantasmal book “Compilation of the Eiten School’s Dharma of Sensations!”
Anne: (dumbfounded)
Samurai: Of course, you have to read this in a tsundere-like voice that hides the inner ZUKKON LOVE of an osananajimi love interest, understand!
Anne: (What the heck is ZUKKON) (TL: “zukkon” means “madly in love”)
Anon Warrior: Ah, then I would like to request an onee-san voice pleeze. Lemme explain, you see, I recently became a working adult, and everyday feels like a constant grind full of social responsibilities… So-how-about-a-scenario-where-I’m-a-high-schooler-who-lives-alone-for-some-reason,-then-this-onee-san-would-cling-to-me-and-rant-with-beer-in-her-hand:-“Working-life-sucks~-But-how-can-a-kid-like-you-understand~”-But-when-I-protest:-“Don’t-treat-me-like-a-child!”-she-would-go-ara-ara-fufufu~-then-turn-towards-me-with-a-charming-smile-no-bratty-high-school-chick-could-pull-off-and-whisper-playfully-into-my-ear:-“Want-me-to-treat-you-like-an-adult-then? ♡”-pretty-please!
Gang member: You turn into a real motormouth as soon as people ask you about your delusions…
Samurai: My bad. Pretend you didn’t hear anything just now.
Mary: (dash into the scene!) Seriously! You got me lost in that lengthy rambling too!
Mob enemies: Wut!? (promptly get ambushed)
Anne: Umm lemme see lemme see… “Indeed. Let us head to the temple.”
Mary: Please don’t read that book for the love of God.
Gang member: W-Wait… Why do you guys have more members…?
Mary: I act as Anne’s equipment. So we’re two people, but still one Servant. Yaaaay. (cute grin)
Gang member & Samurai: T-That’s cheating… (drop dead)
Anon Warrior: …for the new lady who just appeared… a scenario where an osananajimi that I treated like an imouto who used to hang out with me plea… (dead)
Mary: You wouldn’t stop until you die!? (blush) And about that request, why does it have to be an imouto… I’ll do just fine as an onee-san too!
Anon Warrior: (crawl up from his grave with a shit-eating grin)
Mary: One express ticket to hell for you! (kick him away)
After Kotoro’s recording stops, Gudao has an option to respond: “Nevermind their tactics, can I know who that cultured Anon Warrior is?”
Later, to trick Anne and Mary using their own tactic, Gudao also disguises himself as equipment to act as baits for the 2 thirsty pirate onee-san.
Mashu: Are you going to be okay, Master…
Gudao: Please pick up my bones after they finish me.
mUSAshi: You’ll be fiiiiine. Neither meat nor bones will go anywhere!
Execution stage:
Mary: …h-huh? Master! What are you doing here?
Gudao: I’m lost…
Mary: Geez, you’re hopeless. Wait, if you’re here then you’re also a player right? …huh, equipment? I see, just like me… (blush) Yeah that makes sense. If I fit, then Master should also fit… But… playing the role of equipment… alone all by yourself…
Mary: Hmmm~ (scoot closer) Hmmm, mmm hmmm~ (scoot much closer)
Anne: (barge in) Hey, I found you!
Mary: (startle!) Yikes, Anne!
Anne: Hmph! It’s unfair to steal a move on Master in secret.
Mary: I’m not doing anything like that. To begin with, aren’t you supposed to be our lookout?
Anne: Teehee~ :D I heard Master was in the bamboos, so I just acted on my own without thinking.
Mary: Aww, what am I going to do with you :D Welp, all the more fun with just the 3 of us here!
Anne: I know right ♪
Anne: (thirsty mode ON) Let’s. Get. It. On. Then ♡ Master, you’re supposed to be equipment, right? In other words, it’s natural to treat you like our belongings, right? Ah. Non non. Of course we won’t go rough on you. We’ll juuuuust gently…
Mary: (invade personal space) Hug you…
Anne: (invade personal space) And press our cheeks on yours…
Mary: (dominate personal space) And do things we normally can’t do with you…
Anne: (dominate personal space) Do them lots and lots and lots ♡
Mary: Now, keep your eyes closed okay, Master? ♡
Gudao: Guys… look…
The girls: ?
Gudao: Sorry.
And then of course you gotta beat them up cuz god forbid we ever get laid.
MechaEli: (landing down) I have confirmed the tournament announcement. So Mary and Anne have been defeated, right?
Gudao: Since when can you fly!?
MechaEli: Since forever. This skill was installed as soon as I was manufactured. This is better than summoning the sea with some Noble Phantasm right?
(Getting flashback of dolphin railgun: Jeanne: “Yaaay~ I’m gonna filled the world with dolphins! :D” Reese: “DO PHI PHI PHI PHI PHI PHIN!” – translation: incredibly foul-mouthed dolphinspeak that mustn’t be transcribed)
Gudao: ...Yeah, you got a point.

PHARAOH CASINO

(For this part I just wanna comment that Schez takes up the role of the security chief of Pharaoh Casino to help Nito who is currently being possessed by Medjed-sama. Brown girl finally grew a spine for her friend 😭)
Gucchan just came out of a date with Xiang from the casino when Carmilla suddenly asks her to join Gudao’s band of phantom theives, so she just beats you up. But then we win instead so she’s like “fine fine what the hell do you want to talk me into”.
Carmi: “I know from my research, you lost a big sum in the casino just now right? The lover date just barely healed the salt. Don’t you want to get back at them? This heist will benefit you, because you see, what we’re after is the arrogance of a concept like casino itself.”
Gu: “...yeah, now that you mention it, what rubbish. Casino or whatever, rubbish. Why would I have to humiliate myself in puny humans’ rules for play pretend? Getting them back for making fun of me in front of Xiang-sama... very well, such detour may be fun” (cute fang grin)
Gudao: (Oops, paisen / She’s surprisingly...)
Hoku: Hey hey, wassup with this girl, she’s surprisingly easy to fool!
Mashu: No Hoku-san blurting that out is no good! Be flexible, Gu-san! Flexible!
Well, their plan to infiltrate the Casino is actually making Gu explode into a bloody mess to scare Schez off.
Planning stage:
Gu: “So what’s the big plan? As long as it’s not on the level of “No choice but to self-destruct right here!” that some purple-headed strategist’s been doing lately, I’m fine with anything.”
Carmi: “...”
Gu: “Say something! You’re pissing me off!”
Execution stage:
Gu: “excuse me, I feel ill...”
Schez: “oh no, this is not good ma’am! We must give you medical assist right away or else you might die...”
Gu: “...now that I look at it, this place is filled with nothing but white and slippery-looking guys (Medjeds). Wouldn’t it be more fitting to have strong intimidating guys around? This is too all-age for what I’m about to do.
Schez: ??
Gu: “I feel ill, ah really ill... Wait this is exactly what that strategist likes to do isn’t it! Hey what the hell I’m pissed!”
Carmi: (psst! Stick to the plan!)
Gu: “OH YEAH YEAH FINE I’M THE KIND OF WOMAN ONLY GOOD FOR THIS SORT OF THINGS RIGHT HUH?! EXPLODE RIGHT, I JUST GOTTA EXPLODE IS THAT IT?! Fine, here we go. [ETERNAL LAMENT!]”
(Splat! Blood rains everywhere)
Schez: I-I’m going to dieeeeee! Wait she dieeeeeessss??!
And then later when they bait Cleo out she’s all like what the hell is with all the ruckus and why the hell are the patrons screaming “meat...! meat...!”

SUITENGU CASINO

Assassin Creed: Lip edition #1:
Carmi: “QP farming is for plebs. I’m staying in the hotel for beauty treatment. Rather, why would you ask a phantom thief to do anything but to steal. I have no business with Sutengui. “There are no hidden treasures in Sutengui. Only the sound of cheering and empty holograms...” That’s what my Mistress Sensor has whispered to- (rocket punched, dead)
Lip: “Failed to detect a surprise attack from behind... is your sensor only good for detecting jewelry? Were you really an Assassin? That’s what you get for wearing a swimsuit not your age... I mean for turning into a Rider.”
Assassin Creed: Lip edition #2: Okkie: “GO GO GO! You’re dumb for running alone! No mercy for you, assault from 3 sides! Yep yep, survival games are the best! Sorry Maa-chan, I gotta stretch my limbs sometimes! To begin with, isn’t Sutengui like, that evil casino run by Lambda? There is definitely an evil aura well hidden there... even Hime can see darkness there... Kurohi (black Kiyohime? Third ascension?) said “it’s kinda scary” too... Ah well, today Carmi and Nero let me loose so I’m just gonna de-stress in the woods~! Ora ora, your back is wide open! You’re 10 years too early to join the battlefield beibii!”
Lip: “Same goes to you tho. Must be because your belly fat causes you to get slow.”
Okkie: “Whaa!? Whatcha mean, I took boxing class and went on a diet properly to prepare for summer you kno- (rocket punched, dead)
Lip: “You talk too much. If you’re aiming, keep your breath down and be quite. Were you really an Assassin? I don’t think you can join the cool Archer club with that much meat on your belly...”
Assassin Creed: Lip edition #3:
Fuuma: ... Lip:... Fuuma: ... Lip:... Fuuma: ... Lip:...
Fuuma: ...excuse me. You’ve been following me for quite some time, anything you wanna say?
Lip: ... sigh. Assassin class is truly cunning. Noticing me tailing like that... I just wanted to put you down gently... (not sure if rocket punches are considered gentle 🤨) that would have been a hat-trick... could you please read the mood here...”
Fuuma: (...but man, that’s really some dress she’s wearing... I can’t look straight... sasuga Vegas... no calm down Koutaro, calm as still water... at times like this, lord Kintoki would keep his cool and look straight without fail...!) (pretty Kinbro would just go beet red too tho)
Fuuma: Sorry but I’m in a hurry so I can’t dawdle here. Maybe if there are taxis around...
Lip: Oh that won’t be necessary. I have class advantage against Assassin after all ★
Fuuma: A giant...!? (about to say “fist” but he ded)
After capturing our Servants, Lip leaves us a threat letter: “I have to wonder how you’d challenge Sutengui with such lame Servants. The “distiny” of annoying flies are to be squashed flat. I’ll be using the three I captured at the beachside.
PS: Splitting watermelons is fun.”
Then you find out she actually buries those three in the sand to play watermelon splitting with their heads…
Lip: At the moment due to some circumstances Melt has turned into a Lancer, so I would prefer that only Saber people would beat her to a pulp.
Fuuma: Umm, aren’t you guys sisters?
Carmi: What are you on about. This is what siblings are like.
Fuuma: :C (Aren’t family members supposed to get along!?)
Hoku: Saber class is fine right? Then no need to worry, I’ll take her on! Leave this to us. There is no need for you to concern yourself anymore.
Lip: No role for me to play anymore? Isn’t this kind of situation where you recruit me into your party! Right, Gudao?
Gudao: If we leave her alone, it might be dangerous... / Lip is definitely our trump card.
Lip: Rogue! Passionlip will do her best! Given enough time, I can turn anything into a cube. If push comes to shove, the whole casino can just go poof!
Okkie: Yep, she’s a monster. On our side or not the level of danger is the same, Maa-chan T__T
Announcer: Welcome to Sutengui. We’ll now perform belonging inspection. Please spare the time to cooperate with us.
Gudao: it’s dark... / security is strict...
Mashu: yeah... if we don’t hold hands in this darkness we might get separated...
Sieg: (boing~) Where are you Hokusai? Are you there? (boing~) What is this smooth and elastic material that the more you hold it the more your hand digs in... (boing~) the texture is so soft, if I have to say... don’t tell me this is... (boing~) the breast muscles...?
Hoku: Dummy, that’s Octodad, stop grabbing his head! You can stop holding onto my belt now!
After getting out of the dark security check, Siegfried has squid ink on his face...
Melt’s casino is pretty hardcore. It converts your EXP into slot tokens without asking and if you lose you’re basically EXP food for Melt. Looks like the day before Gudao gang gets to Sutengui, Blackbeard and Columbus gambled their EXP away and died.
Bart: Each coin here is worth 1 million QP. Instead of fraud, they just play big. Returns are big too. If you get a triple the slot machine will eject 10 coins, a jackpot 1000. Do you know what this means?
Hoky: Each coin a million... then 1000 would be like, 10 billion QP!?
Sieg: No, on the other hand... we could lose 1 million QP in exactly 3 seconds!?
Gudao: This woman makes 1 million QP a second...! / This man loses 1 million QP a second...!
Koutaro being too much of an good guy:
Fuuma: That Alterego (Protea) must originally be a kind hearted girl, she’s just been deceived by that evil factory manager. If we defeat that rider, there shouldn’t be a need to fight her anymore!
Columbus: ?? ???
After we kick Columbus’ ass:
Protea: uu~ mister factory manager was too noisy, that woke me up...~ but he already kicked the bucket...? He didn’t even seem like he put up a fight... but I’m glad everybody else is okay! ... so let’s p l a y a w h o l e l o t, o k a y? Even if I make a little mess, Melt will fix it for me!
Fuuma: Huh!? Shouldn’t she be a good girl at heart??
Gudao: To begin with why would you even have that kinda idea / (oh, right, he didn’t know she went nuts on the skate ring earlier)
Melt’s plan getting sabotaged and her losing her cool is funny xD
Melt: The day has finally come... In just an hour everything will be mine. Though some little things remain, everything must come to an end. A star is destined to retired as a star. A bird never fouls its nest before abandoning it. For a swan like me, this is the perfect way to end things.
...
Hehe, hahahahahahaha! Ah geez, this is awesome! Nothing beats how happy I’m feeling right now! The biggest nuisance BB is gone, no other annoying boss characters left either! Yay!
And then...
Announcer: Fire broke out at the factory. The manager has run away. Protea, scouted to be the giant kaiju has been put down. Cannot compress EXP points to Melt-sama. Recommend starting all over.
Melt: Hey Siri, come again? My brain couldn’t compute that just now.
Announce: Repeat. You lost everything. Please redo the whole thing.
Melt: .......that so. Well, what happened happened. No I’m cool, I’m perfectly cool. This is Gudao’s masterplan isn’t it. I expected no less. (menacing lip licking) But I still have my turn you know? Right now I’ll go upstage and drain each and every member of the audience. Should be enough of a level-up to beat you pests into a pulp, right?
Announcer: I think you should say “Hey Siri, tell me the bad news” now.
Melt: ...Hey Siri, tell me the bad news.
Announcer: For some reason all the audience is gone. Currently, all Melt-sama has in your possession is a flat (read: pettanko) zero.
Melt: Hey Siri, eat shit and die!
Turns out the Gudao group shout to the audience that not only should they should leave because of danger, since Melt is unable to perform, they will instead host an equally beautiful “golden songs from Her Majesty Nero, or rather 10 songs, no make it a 3-day 3-night all-you-can-listen-until-you-faint show!”
Nero: wow! To be able to convince the audience to leave so quickly, the MC must have conveyed my direction really well!
Fuuma: (looks to me they’re running away in fear, but I should probably avoid pointing that out...)
Part 2 will prolly cover Jeanne's dolphin railgun and Okita's ridiculous backstory :D

Part 2 here.

"The Devil & Max Sullivan: Book 2" (Fiction)

I dropped a thousand on 8 and shook the dice, tonight’s the night I can feel it in my bones. Taking my shot I watched the dice tumble across the board and come up short, “Shit” I took the last of my chips and walked away, Vegas was looking more and more like a mistake every day. Strolling through the casino looking for a hot table I spotted a familiar frame passing through the crowd, I only saw her for a second but there was no mistake, it was her. I didn’t waste a second looking around, I cashed out and headed for my room. As I got on the elevator an older guy stepped in with me, something about him gave me a bad vibe, he never spoke but I couldn’t shake the feeling he was watching me. The elevator stopped on the 6th floor and the old man got off, as the doors slid shut he turned to face me, his milky white eyes were the last thing I saw as the door completely shut.
The doors finally opened on my floor and as I stepped out I spotted a kid coming out of one of the rooms. I didn’t think much of it as we passed one another in the hall but just as I got to my door I heard his voice. “Hey mister you dropped something.” Instantly recognizing it I turned around, but there was no one there. I unlocked the door and rushed into my room, as soon as the door slammed shut I started packing. I set my bags by the door then called the front desk to let them know I was checking out, there was no answer. I hung up the phone and started to walk out, just as I grabbed my bags someone knocked. Releasing my grip, I pulled the pistol from my waistband and clicked off the safety, easing up to the door I looked through the peephole staying as quiet as possible. Three rough looking types (great) I stepped away from the door and called out, “Who is it!?” I heard someone clearing their throat. “Room service.” I had to smile, these guys were clearly watching too many gangster movies I tried to remember exactly where they were standing as I took aim and fired. I could hear them scrambling in the hall as I shut off the lights and got in the closet near the door, with a loud boom they came crashing in waving guns around. They didn’t even bother to look in the closet (amateurs) I stepped out and shot the one closest to me in the back of the head, the other two put their hands up and stopped moving. “Turn around slow.” They did as they were told and the second they were both facing me I shot the one on the left, smiling I stepped closer and pressed the barrel to the last ones forehead. “What seems to be the problem here boss?” He shifted his eyes to me without turning his head,” You killed our brothers and kidnapped our VP’s old lady.” Flashbacks of dragging a woman into a black room fluttered through my mind, taking a deep breath I stepped back and pulled the trigger, I was on the elevator and headed for the parking garage before the bodies could get cold. The elevator dinged as it came to a stop on the 6th floor, the doors slid open to reveal that same old man standing exactly where I’d seen him last. He didn’t move, he just stood there staring at me with a strange expression on his face, “You getting on or not old man?” he responded by smiling at me then opened his mouth releasing a wave of earthworms and dirt spilling down the front of his suit, flipping him off I mashed the button to close the door….
Once I finally made it to my car I tossed my bags in the back seat and hopped in, the second I slid the key in the ignition I heard her chuckle. Slowly glancing up I saw her reflection in my rearview, she was in the back seat. “Hello Max.” I closed my eyes and put my head down, “You gotta be kidding me. What do you want?” She smiled that wicked smile, “Oh nothing, I saw you were in town and thought I’d pop in to say hello.” Taking a deep breath and shaking my head I started the car, “Go away. I don’t have time for your bullshit.” She smiled and in the blink of an eye she was gone, I cruised the strip for a while before I hit the road. A few hours later I was pulling up to a motel just off the highway, once I was settled in I walked to the vending machine for a coke. I stood there gulping down my ice cold soda when I felt someone tap me on the shoulder, “Excuse me sir, but could you spare a couple of dollars?” I turned around to see a teenager, he was 17 possibly 18 years old. His hair was long dirty and matted, his clothes were tattered old rags that looked like they’ve never seen the inside of a washing machine and he was barefoot. “Christ kid, you can’t go around sneaking up on people like that, it’s a good way to get yourself killed.” He stepped back and smiled, “My fault, I didn’t mean to scare you. I was just hoping I could maybe get a few bucks for something to eat.” Looking around I put my hand in my pocket and thumbed a few bills. “I’ll tell you what, I’ll give you 500 dollars if you can do something for me.” He stepped back with an angry expression on his face, I already knew what he was thinking and I had to laugh. “Calm down there Skippy, I’m not trying to buy your hole. I need someone to keep an eye out while I’m staying here.” I saw him relax as a curious smile slowly eased across his face, “So you’re gonna give me 500 bucks to be a look out? Who am I supposed to be looking for?” I took another swig of my soda and pulled out the money. “Bikers specifically, but if you hear anyone looking for Max I need to know about it. We got a deal?” The kid nodded his head and I gave him 200, “You’ll get the rest in the morning, I’m in room 14 knock twice if you see anything.”
I went back to my room and fell asleep, after an hour or so the smell of something rotten pulled my out of my dreams. When I opened my eyes it seemed like the smell got worse, I sat up to see that old man from the elevator standing in the corner of my room. A writhing pile of earthworms and dirt stood knee high around his legs and when he spoke his voice sounded like there were dozens of people talking in unison. “You have been” I didn’t let him finish talking, I grabbed my gun and fired causing him to explode and cover everything (including me) with the worst smelling sludge I’ve ever come across. “What the fuck!?” some of it got in my mouth and I almost threw up as I got to my feet. The second I stood up the room started to vibrate with a low hum that made my teeth rattle, as the sound got louder I found myself fighting to stay awake and before long I was falling to the floor splashing down into a pool of that black sludge. There was a moment of absolute silence, I was floating in an ocean of darkness looking up at a star filled sky, a tapping sound cut through the silence and the world around me started to spin. White light blinded me for a second then I was back in my room lying face down on the cheap motel carpet. (Tap, tap) The sound that brought me back was coming from the door, I got up looking around the room realizing the goo was gone but I could still taste it on my tongue. I didn’t bother looking out the peep hole I just flung the door open to see the kid standing there looking nervous. “There’s a group of guys asking questions at the front desk. I think they’re looking for you.” The kid came in and closed the door while I grabbed my things. “Damn it stinks in here. What’ve you been doing?” I looked at him for a second then dug in my pocket for the rest of his money. “Thanks for the heads up, you better get moving before they get here.” as I handed him the cash the door came crashing in.
There were five of them all together, the first one through the door pistol whipped the kid and the other four rushed me, they were in the middle of beating me to death when I heard that low humming sound and everything went black. I don’t mean I blacked out, I was completely conscious, I just couldn’t see anything. Over the next few seconds all I could hear was them screaming along with the sound of bones breaking and blood splattering. When it was over I sat there watching the darkness ooze down the walls slowly revealing the light as it pooled in the center of the room forming itself into the old man from the elevator. He smiled then vanished leaving me with an unconscious kid and a room full of dead bodies. Sirens whaled in the background while I woke up the kid, he sat up and wiped the blood off his face looking around the room. “Holy shit! What happened? Did you do this?” I grabbed my bags and headed for the door, “The cops are coming, you better get moving.” about half way to my car he came running up behind me. “Hey wait! Can I get a ride? You can drop me off at the next town, I can’t deal with the cop’s dude. Please man, I gotta get out of here.” I shook my head and hit the alarm, “Get in.”
We were on the road for an hour before either of us said a word. “So what’s all this about? Why’re those guys after you?” I grabbed my cigarettes off the dash and lit one up, “It’s a long story. What’s your deal, why’re you running from the cops?” he smiled and let the seat back. “They ask too many questions.” We didn’t talk much after that, I drove till the sun came up then stopped to get gas. When I got back from paying the kid was gone, once I finished fueling up I hopped in and started pulling off. I was just about to pull onto the highway when the kid came running up to the passenger side tapping on the window while franticly pulling at the handle. “Let me in, let me in!” the second I popped the lock he dove in laughing as we peeled out of the parking lot. I glanced over to see him counting a wad of 20s and 10s, “What’d you just do?!” he smiled, counted off 50 and stuffed it in the cup holder. “Got some gas money.” Getting comfortable in the seat he chuckled a little, “I saw some guys shooting dice on the side of the store, so while you were chatting up the cashier I took your gun and robbed them, speaking of which.” Leaning back in his seat he pulled my gun from under his shirt then slipped it back in the glove box…
Chapter 2:
The kid’s name is Sam, I was supposed to dump him in the next town but he’s managed to make that a lot harder than it should be. We were speeding along the back roads somewhere in Texas when a state trooper lit us up, pulling off the highway I already knew how this would play out but what happened next threw me for a loop.
As the trooper approached the vehicle I glanced over to see Sam was gone, after the usual line of questioning I was pulled out of the car and placed in cuffs. The trooper was walking me to the squad car when I heard Sam’s voice from behind us, “You should’ve let him go.” before he could turn around a hand gripped the top of his head and in one swift motion mashed down. There was a wet crunch as his spinal column compacted and his skull caved in, his lifeless body crumbled to the pavement revealing Sam standing there with a huge smile plastered across face. Laughing and kneeling down wiping his hands on the officer’s uniform he chuckled, “That was awesome, I didn’t think it would work. Bet you’re glad I’m here now aren’t you?” Watching him retrieve the keys from the officer’s pocket I noticed a slight wisp of black smoke coming from his eyes. “You’re one of hers aren’t you?” Sam glanced up at me with a disappointed look, “Why does everyone think we all work for her? As a matter of fact I can’t stand the old bat, no matter what happens she gets all the credit.”
While he rambled on I was planning my escape, the second the cuffs came off I bolted to my car, jumped in and sped away. Zipping down the highway I saw someone step out into the road ahead of me, it was Sam. I mashed down the accelerator and gripped the wheel to keep control, I was going to leave him splattered across the highway, the closer I got I braced myself for impact. As my front bumper made contact the little shit phased right through it grabbing me by the shoulders and snatching me out of the car, in a split second I was standing on the road watching my car veer off the pavement and slam into a tree, there was a loud whoosh as it burst into flames taking my money with it. “What the fuck man!? Why won’t you go away?!” Sam stood there shaking his head dusting himself off, “You are one ungrateful bastard, aren’t you? I’ve saved your life, and kept you out of jail, do I get a thank you?” As he finished dusting himself off his clothes transformed from rags to a nicely tailored solid black suit. His filthy matted hair turned to dreadlocks as he passed his fingers through it. “No, instead you try to ditch me then you tried to run over me with your car!” he smiled and nodded his head. “I can see why she picked you, here’s the deal Max, I want you to kill her.”
“She’s been hiding here for a long time and.” Sam paused in midsentence then shook his head as black smoke started pouring from his eyes, “We’ll talk later.” He turned to walk away and vanished in a cloud of smoke as a familiar voice sent chills up my spine. “Hello Max, how’ve you been?” Turning around to face her there was a loud pop and I found myself standing in an office. Her back was to me as she stood there looking out over the city, I couldn’t help but to admire her figure for a second and before I could stop myself she chuckled, “You really shouldn’t look at me that way people might get the wrong idea.” She turned to me with that wonderfully wicked smile, “I have a new offer for you Max, my competitors think they can run the show and I need them dealt with. In return I’ll give you back what you’ve lost and toss in a little extra for your troubles, do we have a deal?” Laughing to myself I started towards the closest door, I paused to glanced back to her. “Why me? I’m sure you could handle this on your own, why do you keep dragging me into your shit?” The smile slipped from her face as she stepped over to the desk and took a seat, “Do we have a deal?” Patting my pocket I found my smokes, got one out and lit it then opened the door, “No, I don’t think we do. See you around.” As I stepped into the hall the door slammed shut behind me and as it did I was back on the highway standing a few feet away from my burning car.
I walked till the sun came up eventually coming to a town called “Ravens rock”. Stopping to rest under an old tree I fished the last of my money out of my pocket and counted it. A hundred and fifty Bucks, it would have to do till I could come up with a plan, as the morning rolled on and the sleepy little town came to life I started attracting attention. Strolling along I realized everywhere I went at least one person would openly stop and stare at me, the really odd part was no one seemed to notice. After seeing it three or four times I decided to walk up to the next person I spotted staring at me. Walking to the end of the block I turned right onto another street and as I made the corner I spotted an old man standing in front of a hardware store. He was in the center of the sidewalk, puffing on his cigar staring directly at me. From a distance I didn’t recognize him but as I got close enough to see him I realized I’d seen him before. He blew out a heavy cloud and scowled at me, “Leave my town or I’ll kill you myself. I’ve good thing going here and I don’t need you screwing it up.” I nodded my head looking around the street for a second then punched him in the nose so hard I heard it snap. Grabbing him by the collar I hurried him inside the store and locked the door behind us, long story short, I drug him in the back and beat him to death with a hammer then cleaned out the registers and got out of there.
I was two blocks away when the old man popped up again, puffing his cigar he blew a huge cloud that immediately engulfed me transporting us both to a bar. As the smoke cleared I spotted him pouring two cups, “Have a seat Max.” judging by the look on his face I wasn’t sure I wanted the drink but considering he probably could’ve killed me already I took the chance. “I am Stolas, and unlike the majority of my kind these days, I’m neutral in all this.” Tipping his glass to me he emptied his cup then poured another. “That’s the only reason I haven’t killed you. After your little temper tantrum at the hardware store I was tempted, but I’m sitting this one out.” sniffing my drink I finally took a sip. It went down warm and smooth coating my mouth with the sweet aftertaste of honey. I downed the rest of it as the old man slid the bottle over to me, “What is all this, Stoli?” He frowned at me and took another sip, “Its Stolas, and I don’t know. What I can tell you is, there’s a lot of bad news headed your way. Ask your little pal Samael he knows, from what I hear he’s in the middle of it.” Refilling both of our cups, he paused and looked at me. “So Max, what do I have to do to get you out of my town?”……..
Chapter 3:
Stoli agreed to give me a car and keep his mouth shut about seeing me. Heading north the day turned to night as the miles drifted by, since my money was gone the plan was to link up with an old friend of mine and pull a job or two for some fast cash. Passing through Colorado I came to a crowded truck stop, the parking lot was packed, people were walking around drinking and having a good time, I just needed gas. Once I got a pump I went inside for supplies, grabbing a few things I made my way up to the counter. “So what’s going on around here, is it always this busy?” The cashier an older lady smiled and glanced out the window as she rung me up. “Its Friday, all the locals go to the little club on the other side of the lot, things usually die down around 2 or 3 in the morning.” As she turned to grab my cigarettes from the rack I noticed a tattoo on the back of her neck, I didn’t recognize the symbol but something about it gave me a bad feeling.
Fueling up and watching the crowd move through the lot I figured a drink might do me some good, besides I was in no hurry to get back on the road. Once I had a parking spot and made my way inside I grabbed a beer and found a quiet corner far away from the dance floor. Scanning the crowd for marks and picking a couple of easy targets I spotted a crew casing the place. There were four of them, the point man or woman in this case was standing near the end of the bar, she was talking to a couple of different people but they didn’t seem involved. Two gunners, one by the restroom and the other near the front door, by the looks of them this wasn’t their first run. Looking around I found the ring leader, center stage in the middle of the dance floor, he was dancing with a group of people while the others waited for the signal. Polishing off my beer I got up from my table and walked out, as soon as I hit the parking lot I started searching for the getaway car, it didn’t take long. I put on my best fake drunk walk and staggered over patting my pockets looking for my cigarettes. Once I got to the trunk I pounded on it with my hand calling out to the driver, “Hey man, you got a light?” He glared back at me opening the door to get out, “Did you just hit my car, get the fuck out of here! No I don’t have a light!” Fumbling with my smokes I dropped them as he got closer, staggering leaning forward to pick the pack up I braced myself and as soon as he was in reach, I punched him in the balls so hard he lifted up on his toes. He wheezed and doubled over as I stood up grabbing the back of his head kneeing him in the face until he crumbled to the ground gurgling and spitting out teeth. Once I was done stomping his skull in, I put his body in the dumpster and checked the car. I found one fully loaded AR 15 and a Chiappa Rhino along with a few extra rounds in the center console, I took the guns and was planning on taking the car when the sound of gunfire from inside the club let me know it was show time.
Hiding behind some parked cars I waited for them to come out, it wasn’t long before they came running. As soon as they stopped to look around for the driver I opened up with the AR. The first few shots dropped two of them, I ducked down and moved to another position as the others fired blindly not knowing where I was. Circling around to my left I could hear one of the downed men screaming while the other two yelled to one another in the confusion. Creeping over to another cluster of cars and taking a quick look, I could only see one of them it was the woman from the bar. She was clutching a 9 in one hand and a bag in the other as she nervously looked around, taking a deep breath I popped up and dropped two shots on her center mass then immediately took cover and moved to another spot. The guy that was bleeding out in the dirt was still screaming his head off, pausing to listen I heard the last one yelling, by the sound of it he was close. Using the strap I put the AR on my back and pulled the revolver. Moving slow and low I kept closing in on the sound of his voice. When I spotted him I had to smile, he was clutching a second bag (Must be my lucky day) he popped up from his hiding spot and made a break for the car. Taking aim, I let him run for a second then put one through his lower back and he hit the ground screaming.
There wasn’t much time left I could already hear the sirens echoing in the distance, rushing I grabbed both bags then booked it back to my car and got the hell out of there. I was a couple of towns away when I finally stopped to check the money, not a bad haul a couple of thousand at best but it was more than enough to get me where I was headed. Before I could pull off there was a tap at my window, grabbing the pistol off the seat I turned to see Sam standing there peering through the window at me. “You gonna let me in or what?” My first thought was to throw the car in drive and smash the gas but then I remembered what Stoli said and unlocked the door.
Getting in looking around the car Sam Laughed. “Where’d you get this piece of shit? Come on Max, you’re letting me down, I had such high expectations for the old lady’s number one draft pick. So far I have to say I’m not impressed, I mean seriously, stick up kids and low budget bikers? What does she see in you?” Shaking his head Sam reached for my cigarettes on the dash and I grabbed his wrist before he could touch them. “The way I see it, you have two choices. I can beat you to death or you can tell me what going on.” Sam looked at me smiling as black smoke filled his eyes, he tried to shift away from me, when he couldn’t his smile was replaced by shock. Using my left, I grabbed my knife from the door panel and drove it through the back of his hand pinning him to the dash. “Holy fuck that hurts!! How did you?” I cut him off by bouncing his skull off window a couple of times then snatched the blade free and plunged it into his leg. “So Sam, What’s it gonna be?”

Episode 6:

I actually really appreciate starting this episode not with a flashback, but with a fight scene, so that we can be introduced to best cat girl, Felicia. Speaking of introductions…
Felicia’s introduction, just like the ones of every other major character, is just great. Her just repeatedly saying “crush them” goes to show her obsessive hatred towards witches, and her rushing into battle despite her magical girl comrades telling her to wait goes to show how her hatred towards witches makes her impulsive and hotheaded. However, the fact that while all of her comrades struggle to take down the familiars, she just effortlessly mows them down, sending them flying implies that while she just rushes in without a plan, she’s at least got more than enough strength to cover for her rash nature. That, or she’s got some SERIOUS berserker rage. Nonetheless, I know that I would sure as hell want her on my party if I was an isekai protagonist. Her comrades staring at her in awe as she leaps in the air, familiars flying away from her, as she yells “I’ll massacre you!” sort of goes to show a point that I think was handled rather poorly in the game. Now, this is all based on my poor memory of Felicia’s introduction in the game, so bear with me. It is rather heavily hinted at that when Felicia enters her quote unquote berserker rage, she not only becomes a hotheaded witch slaying machine, she also becomes someone that even somewhat terrifies her magical girl allies. This introduction comes to a spectacular, albeit abrupt ending when the opening pops in. Overall, great introduction. Rather short, but still, a great one. 9/10.
So, just my 2 cents, but I like how the moment the opening ends, Iroha’s alarm clock goes off, as if to symbolize that Iroha thinks that Felicia’s introduction scene was just a dream. Or that the scenes in the opening were just a dream. It goes to imply that Iroha saw SOME dream, that I can tell. ~~My logic is fucking impeccable, I know.~~
Iroha wakes almost instantaneously. OK, I call BULL! I’m a 15-year-old that has an alarm clock, mine being something rather cheerful and energetic, and even I don’t get up and out of bed in less than 5 minutes. Then again, it MIGHT have something to do with the fact that this is a fantasy show… Nah, doubt it. Fantasy show makes no sense! Quick! Add one to the sin counter! Oh, great, ShaymemeSins is back…
“Ah, right, Yachiyo’s house.” Ahem, excuse me, but I insist. “Miss Nanami’s house for magicary and gifted kids”. Yes, I am well aware that “magicary” is not a real word. Sue me.
So, in 04:51, is that Asuka’s dojo? Because if so, have I mentioned how much I legit just love this show’s world building so far? Like, legit, just fucking great.
Well, I will give Iroha points for being a somewhat responsible 15/16-year-old and not immediately drinking the obviously evil water when she’s offered to drink it. I will not take points off for Felicia drinking it immediately without a second thought because, come on, it’s Felicia. She’s SUPPOSED to sort of be the group’s rash, hotheaded “Imouto”. I will, however, take points off for Kyouko not appearing and drinking the water with them. She IS supposed to do that, after all. Then again, it’s an adaptation, so I guess they DO get a bit of leeway.
Felicia just straight up tries to mug Iroha. Isn’t Felicia 13? And Iroha IS a 15-year-old magical girl. Couldn’t Iroha just like, IDK, Judo flip her and tell her to fudge off? I know Iroha would never do that because a. She’s WAY too polite, b. She doesn’t want to leave a bad impression on the Kamihama magical girls, and c. she doesn’t know Judo, but still. It’s fun to imagine, I guess.
Yes, Felicia’s transformation scene is short. Yes, it’s great. Yes, I love it. No, I am not a lolicon. No, I have no idea why I felt the need to say that.
Big hammer loli just 1 hit KOs a witch by herself. Remind me again why does anyone think those creatures are dangerous?
“The fee for saving you is 1,000 yen”. Ah, yes. Capitalism. Surprisingly enough, it actually doesn’t feel weird in this show about hopes, dreams and magical girls. And no, I am not being sarcastic, surprisingly enough.
Iroha: “So, like, I’m low on pocket money. Can I just buy you ice cream?” Felicia: “shut up and give me that ice cream!” Iroha: “huh. I guess what works on my little sister will work on every loli.”
And the series’ greatest steaming pile of aggression, Kyouko Sakura is back, bitches! I’ll be honest, can’t wait to see more of her. She’s a fun character, what can I say?
Wait wait wait wait WAIT! Felicia is a 13-year-old, and Iroha is a 15-year-old. By Japanese standards, even Yachiyo is a minor, and Yachiyo is 19, the oldest magical girl to date! (not including the spin off manga). What are these two underage girls doing in a casino? Actually, from the quick research I did, it seems slot machines (which is what Iroha and Felicia seem to be playing) are illegal in Japan, period, and are only operated by Yakuza members. I know Felicia is a mercenary, but she’s a MAGICAL GIRL mercenary, and 13 years old to boot! You CANNOT expect me to believe that she has connections to the Yakuza. (note: yes, I am well aware that we’re not expected to believe she has connections with the Yakuza, and that the only reason Felicia and Iroha are in a casino is to show their insane luck. Don’t @ me.)
So, list of games and what Iroha and Felicia got in each of them: 1. They got a triple crown at a slot machine, which I assume is meant to replace the triple 7 you usually see in American slot machines. 2. Iroha and Felicia get a royal straight flush, AKA a straight flush, which is the strongest hand in poker. It’s also over a 1 in 6 million chance. 3. They get what is called a “FEVER!”, which I assume corresponds to a ridiculously high score in a quick reflex or a dancing game. 4. They’re on the verge of pulling a 4-star rarity character in the incredibly popular Gacha game – “Magia Record: a Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Side Story”.
Felicia: “We’ve got it! Luck is on our side!” Me: “Cool it, Kazuma.”
Felicia: “You’ll cook for me?” tries not to cry Iroha: “Felicia, are you… Are you crying?” Felicia: “No! I can just already smell the onions you’ll be cutting! That’s all!” Iroha: “OK…”
Kyouko just lying on a rooftop, eavesdropping, eating a pocky stick.
OK, the feathers are actually pretty damn creepy.
Felicia is just fucking terrifying from 22:03 to 22:08. Legit nightmare fuel.
Overall opinion: Truly, a great episode, and a really fun one. It thrusts us into the action of the next “arc” without much wait, and a lot of the important things are paced properly. I’ll be honest, when I originally saw that Kyouko wasn’t with Felicia and Iroha to drink the water, I was a bit worried about how they were gonna integrate her into this “arc’s” final conflict, but when I saw her eavesdropping to Felicia, Iroha, Tsuruno and Yachiyo’s conversation, intrigued about this talk of an “Uwasa” and “lucky water”, it calmed me down. It finally reassured me that even though they might change things, they’re still gonna make sure everything makes sense. I really liked this episode, and I also really liked how they didn’t feel the need to delve into Felicia’s psyche or something like that. Don’t know about later, but she’s not exactly a complex character this early in the story. She’s the gang’s “Imouto” (or little sister, if you prefer), who’s angry at witches for doing such and such truly horrible things to her parents, and has a SERIOUES case of “berserker rage”, for better or worse. She doesn’t believe in teaming up, and she’ll work for whoever pays the highest. Her “character arc” for now is to learn that she should help her friends, no matter what, not the highest bidder. For now, she’s not exactly complex, and that’s OK. Not every character needs to be “complex” and “compelling”. The final score is a solid 9/10.

[All] Understanding the place, part 2

I listed every occurrence of the "place" used during season 3 in an attempt to try to "understand" it, as urged by Mr C in P16.
In P9 and P11, a "place" was used for the site of the portal by Hasting and Tammy. This was also how Cooper used it in P18. Mr C was looking for "a place" that the coordinates pointed at, and later he was seen following some coordinates to the white portal.
The NYC building top that housed what looked like an artificial portal was also referred to as the "place". Mr C literally materialized next to Twin Peaks Sheriff's station that was also called as the "place". Later in the same episode, Cooper's overlaid head was saying in that same station, "We live inside a dream."
In a Twin Peaks grocery store, Sarah Palmer seemed to briefly fall asleep at the counter. Like she suspected, the room was indeed different when she woke up. Or did she wake up? She wanted to get out of that "place".
In P1, Hastings was accused of murdering Ruth because his fingerprints were in her apartment. But he assured he had been there "only in a dream". So, was he still in that dream? Apparently he had gone to the portal and then transported back to what looked like his home, called as the "place".
Similarly, tucked neatly under the blanket, Major Briggs's giant headless corpse could not possibly have ended up in Ruth Davenport's apartment without a portal taking part in the proceedings. Was it because Hastings's travel partner's head was suddenly back in her apartment - or, what looked like her apartment - and took the Major's body with her? Again, the house was called as the "place".
Carl Rodd called Steven's trailer a "nightmare", and next Steven called it a "place". Things were not right in that trailer, and that still needs a closer look in addition to Steven being "the wrong man".
Locations such as the Black Lodge, the motel above the Convenience Store and Jackrabbit's Palace - the "make-believe world" - were called as "places". When Cole was staring to the portal that opened in the Buckhorn backyard ("this is the place"), he saw the Woodsmen standing on the stairs that led to the motel above the Convenience Store. The otherworldly version of the Roadhouse where orchestra played backwards and the crowd made space for Audrey to dance her dance was referred to as a "place".
Janey-E told Cooper the jackpot money was in their "secret place". Later, she said It was like all their dreams were coming true. Had Dougie winning the jackpot been their secret dream?
All of a sudden, it looked like Shelley and Red were in the same dream as lovers. Red asked Shelly, "Same place?"
Sophie warned Megan - who hinted about using drugs in her room - not to go to that "nut place", and then Megan told her an apparent crazy dream she had had about Billy.
The originator of this riddle, Mr C, called both some farm and The Farm - these two seemingly each other's alternate storylines - as the place. The former was where he had woken up to in the middle of nowhere, all blooded and miraculously alive, whereas the latter looked like Richard's dream.
The South Dakota Buckhorn itself may have been a dreamlike reimagining of the real Buckhorn that was in Nevada, close to Las Vegas.
If the word "place" was used as an abstraction throughout the season - in the style of several other words and phrases used for overloaded purposes - it seems to stand for both an entrance to another reality and that reality itself. But in line with the season's tagline about dreamers who lived inside their dreams, that alternate reality didn't seem to be your average fantasy fiction one but rather a dream that had grown into a world, a twisted and distorted version of the underlying real world to meet the fears, desires and needs of the respective dreamer.
This implies that Lucky 7 - repeatedly called as a "place" - and its apparent counterpart Silver Mustang Casino that had two dice showing 5 and 2 in its logo were ultimately more of the same.
This brings us to the remaining two instances of the "place". There were two individuals who didn't have a "place" to go. Thus, in line with the previous - for a reason or another - there was no dream left for them to live in. In P10, Bradley Mustang was defending Candie.

Bradley: "We fire her, she's got no place to go."

In P17, there was a Fire Walk with Me flashback with Laura and James meeting up in the forest.

Laura: "There's no place left to go, is there, James?"

This was probably a reference to what the Arm told Cooper in the Fire Walk with Me: Missing pieces when Cooper wanted to leave the Waiting Room but he was apparently stuck in the same limbo as Candie and Laura.

The Arm: "You are here. Now there's no place to go but home!"

In P17, Cooper met with Laura in the forest and started leading her through the woods.

Laura: "Where are we going?"
Cooper: "We're going home."

It seems then that even if Laura had no place to go, she could still go home, and so Cooper tried to take her there. That didn't work out. Laura was suddenly taken away, screaming. In P18, Cooper tried the same, with a much older Laura.

Cooper: "I want to take you to your mother's home ... your home at one time. It's very important."

That didn't look like such a great success either. This is something interesting to think about as the implication probably was that Laura didn't have a home left any more, and so trying to take her to what had been her home was no use.
But in the meantime, someone else seems to have been luckier.
Earlier, I proposed that when we apparently saw two Coopers wake up in the hospital and head to Twin Peaks, while one of them was the real Dale Cooper, the other was Major Garland Briggs, having come back for another chance in Cooper's likeness. I also proposed that the real Douglas Jones had been Major Briggs himself.
In P18, it seems we were misdirected to think that when some Cooper returned to Jones's home that it was just his newly minted tulpa, shrewdly sent to keep Janey-E and Sonny Jim company when the real thing wasn't available any more. But a more careful watch reveals that the tulpa Gerard created disintegrated immediately.
Hastings said that Major Briggs "wanted to go to a different place". The Arm reminded Cooper that there was "no place to go but home". And when hugging Janey-E and Sonny Jim, this Cooper said just one thing, "Home!"
Maybe it was only in a dream that Major Briggs was back home, but sometimes one's choices are limited.

Just found a rough draft of a Total Drama Season 7 I wrote over a year ago, it’s called Total Drama Sunken Island

I liked the 3 team idea in World Tour so I’d build off that. The contestants would be boated to where the island sunk and all the challenges would take place underwateabove water but all of them would involve water. For challenges fully underwater, each contestant would receive an Oxygen tank that lasts enough to complete the challenge. The team that won the challenge would get to sleep on a fancy Cruise ship, while the middle team would get a yacht, and the last place team would get a fishing boat.
We would have 3 teams and 8 contestants on each team. 24 total contestants.
Mighty Muskies:
Owen Noah Gwen Duncan Courtney Emma Heather Alejandro
Wonder Walley:
Mike Zoey Jacques Lindsay Tyler Beth Sammy Amy
Congested Crappie:
Geoff Brody Cody Devon Carrie Shawn Jasmine McAurthur
Episode 1: 3 way volleyball: challenge would be the teams playing volleyball in a 3 way match, lowest scoring team at the time the winning team hits 10 points goes to elimination. Wonder Walleye would end up in elimination while the Crappie would win
24th- Amy
Episode 2: Treasure Diving: teams would have to dive for a guided Chris with their teams branding on the bottom. Congested Crappie would end up losing after Jacques sabotaged McAurther finding the Chris. Jacques won the challenge for the Walleye.
23rd- McAurther
Episode 3: Chris-ulet: teams would have to scavenge Chris’s old house to find the one thing he left down there, his beloved amulet with his own face on it. Winning team gets to choose who to eliminate from the losing team. Wonder Walleye would end up losing the challenge while the Muskie would win. They end up choosing to vote off Zoey to weaken the Walleye.
22nd- Zoey
Episode 4: Eagles Nest: The teams compete in an underwater 5v5 first to 3 eagles nest game. Jacques would play a phenomenal goal keeper to win the challenge for the Walleye, while the Muskie would end up losing. They end up voting off Courtney because she is too obsessed with being more authoritative than Heather and dominating Duncan. She was caught conspiring behind the teams back multiple times at this point.
21st- Courtney
Episode 5: Laps: Chris and Chef set up an underwater swimming trail around the whole island that the teams would have to race around. The Crappie would end up winning and the Muskie would lose. The team ends up voting off Alejandro to split him and Heather up despite Noah being so poor at underwater challenges. Plus payback from season 3 for Owen and Noah
20th- Alejandro
Episode 6: Underwater opstical Course: An opstical course is build from the rubbish left underwater and the teams must clear the course with all their members to win the challenge. The Walleye would end up losing and sending Jacques home since the team is under majority control of Lindsay, Beth, Tyler and Sammy who has been befriended. They picked him over mike because he was annoying them and they didn’t like his evil suggestions.
19th- Jacques
Episode 7: Capture the Flag: so every 7 episodes they would have a challenge that does not involve swimming. It is called the lucky 7 challenge. So episode 7, 14, and 21 would not involve swimming. For this, the teams would have 3 islands to hide their flags on, and whichever team recovers their flag from both the other teams islands first wins. They would boat in between the islands to capture the flags.
The Muskie would end up losing after all their members aside from the defenders (Noah and Emma) were tagged out. Noah and Emma were not aware of their surroundings, losing both their flags very early as well. The Crappie ended up winning. Emma ended up getting voted off because the cast was tired of her distracting Noah, and Owen was bias towards Noah so he and the rest voted Emma.
18th- Emma
Episode 8: seashells: for this challenge it was shallow water hunting as the team had to pick 5 of the best seashells they could find to show the panel (Chris, Chef, and former contestant Harold). The Muskie finally won a challenge, and the Walleye are sent to elimination off of Lindsay’s poor performance (she broke the 5th shell) she was voted off, but Tyler took the elimination for her to try and win her back since they had broken up the episode before. They ended up back together.
17th- Tyler
Episode 9: Hot Potato: The team would play hot potato with a water ball, and the timer was randomly set by Chris so the teams had no idea when it would go off. Brody ended up making a poor decision to toss the team the challenge, while the Muskie won 2 straight. This episode ended up being non-elimination.
Episode 10: The Brawl: Teams would have balloons placed on each contestants back, and they would have to pop the balloons off each team. Noah ended up performing much above expectation and the Muskie and Walleye ended up forming a temporary alliance to take down the Crappie since the Crappie had only lost one member thus far. They managed to take them down, and then the Muskie best the Walleye. Brody almost ended up getting sent home because he lost his mojo in episode 9 and never got it back, but they ended up sending Shawn home because he hadn’t really done a whole lot all season since he was freaking out a lot about underwater zombies. Since they can walk underwater btw.
16th- Shawn
Episode 11: Battleship: Each team would have 3 boats, and would be required to sink each other’s boats. First team to lose all 3 was out. The Walleye ended up losing while the Crappie rose back to the top. Beth ended up getting sent home by the Crappie when it was Lindsay Beth vs Mike Sammy, and it was 2 votes Beth, 2 votes Sammy. They ended up choosing Beth over Sammy and sent her home.
15th- Beth
Episode 12: Atlantis: Each team would have to build an underwater infrastructure to the best of their abilities for judges Chris, Chef and former competitor DJ to look rate. The Muskie ended up with a collapsed building which was blamed on Noah since he planned the building out. In reality, it was sabotaged by Jasmine after Noah had trash talked Shawn and his zombie stories in front of her on multiple occasions in the season to this point and finally pushed her over the edge. The team sent Noah home for blowing the challenge.
14th- Noah
Episode 13: Painful Water Balloon Fight: Waterbaloon fight. Each member of each team would be granted a single wooden pole to stand on. the challenge was to knock all the players off their poles. The Crappie still have an oversized team so the Muskie and Walleye agreed to team up in a 7v6 situation, but the Crappie were ready. On the backs of Brody (who snaps his bad mojo streak here) and Jasmine they first knock out the Muskie, sending them into elimination, and then the Walleye. The Muskie voted off Owen, only to learn the challenge was a non elimination challenge when suddenly Don shows up as part of his contract to host the next half of the season while Chris would take his vacation time.
Episode 14: The Big Boom: The 2nd Lucky 7 challenge of the season. Don finds is funny what Duncan did to Chris’s home in All-Stars, and in return he builds 3 exact replicas of the homes and tells the teams to blow them up. He says as long as they all blow the houses up, they will all be safe from elimination. Each team ends up blowing up the house successfully and it pans to Chris wiping a tear from his eye while he sits on the beaches of Jamaica and only says “Harsh dude”. It was in fact a non elimination round again. Duncan creates such a fantastic replica that Don gives him an Idol of invincibility that would protect him from the next Muskie elimination if it were to happen before merge, but post merge it would expire.
Episode 15: The Great Dive: Each team is takes with 3 different dives. One massive cannonball dive, one elegant dive, and one very high up Dive. For the Cannonball, Muskie took first with Owen, Crappie 2nd with Jasmine, and Walleye 3rd with Sammy. For the elegant dive, Walleye first with Mike, Muskie 2nd with a surprising performance from Heather, and Brody bellyflops into 3rd. For the final dive, Carrie takes first by jumping instantly, Lindsay takes 2nd after her team fools her into jumping, and Gwen ended up not jumping in time, resulting in a 3 way tie for first.
Don decided to send every single member in the show to elimination aside from the three winners and Duncan because of his immunity. So Duncan, Owen, Mike and Carrie were safe and not voting. Cody ended up surprisingly getting sent home here, the reason unknown. He was friendly to all and it ended up costing him the game.
13th- Cody
Episode 16: Don wanted to make an Omen to redonculous race, so he had Don boxes installed at Pahkitew Island for the start, where they would have to as a team perform Synchronized water dancing. Once the judges approved, they would be allowed to access the Don box and get the challenge at Bony Island. The challenge was an all in. The teams had to build a boat to speed their way to the sunken island and reach the Chill Zone. Last team to reach the Zone, may be sending someone home. The Muskie ended up taking the win, while the Walleye shockingly edged out the Crappie who suddenly went ice cold. They ended up sending home Brody because he became a liability when he lost his mojo. The challenge ended up being an elimination too so Brody was gone this time. (Not rehashing a lost mojo story, just sending him home.)
12th- Brody
Episode 17: Merge Mayhem: The teams were informed in the beginning of the episode that this would be the merger. Survive this and make it to the merge. In confessionals contestants revealed they were shocked Sammy was still in the game, and that this challenge probably benefitted her the most since she was the least threat. Don placed himself inside a locked cage (with lots of oxygen) somewhere on the sunken island, and only the winning team would be safe from elimination tonight. Their job was to bring him back to the shore of Bony Island.
Geoff had a grudge and believed his team broke the mojo code by voting off Brody while the team insisted they couldn’t Iet him continue to throw challenges every time he lost his edge. The Muskie ended up winning the challenge. Geoff annoyed his team so much that the remaining 3 Crappie votes for him. The Walleye on the other hand, formed an alliance to vote off Jasmine since she was the biggest threat for the merger. Geoff voted for Jasmine because he was most annoyed at her and it ended up being Jasmine going home shockingly in a 4-3 vote count. Geoff realized he was wrong in the end.
11th- Jasmine
Episode 18: Biggest Shark: Duncan and Heather suddenly form an alliance since Duncan begins trying to prove he’s bad again, and Heather is actually a villain again. The challenge is to show Don the largest shark. Heather ends up winning, and manages to keep her and Duncan’s alliance a secret. In elimination, Devon is surprisingly sent home.
10th- Devon
Episode 19: The Save: Kind of like Harry Potter and the Goblett of Fire, where they have the closest ones to the contestants underwater each contestant in the beginning was told they can pick 1 former Total Drama contestant from any season.
Owen- Noah Gwen- Leshawna Duncan- Courtney Heather- Alejandro Mike- Zoey Lindsay- Beth Sammy- Tyler Geoff- Bridgett Carrie- Devon
Lindsay was upset Sammy picked Tyler That being said, Gwen ended up winning the challenge and saving Leshawna first. Don said the top 3 were safe tonight. 2nd ended up being Carrie and 3rd Sammy. Lindsay ended up being more concerned about Tyler than Beth and helped Sammy on accident. Sammy ended up gaining a lot of people on her side when Lindsay chewed her out for what other people thought was no reason. Also Lindsay never saved Beth, the producers had to. They ended up voting Lindsay off, to her surprise
9th- Lindsay
Episode 20: Old vs New: Don decided to split the remaining contestants into 2 teams, marking the first ever unmerge in total Drama history. He stated it would be the old members vs the new members. Don announced Geoff would be put in the new cast for his performance on Redonculous Race. Old: Owen, Gwen, Heather, Duncan vs new: Mike, Sammy, Geoff, and Carrie.
The challenge this week was dive to the bottom of the ocean and grab a ring that had been tossed down there. Then, they had to toss the ring onto the nose of a bottle nosed dolphin. Then they had to ride the dolphin through a flaming hoop and from there race to the finish.
Geoff tossed the challenge for his team when he continued to miss the ring toss onto the Dolphin. His team eliminated him for this when he began weeping about tossing games again and having flashbacks to Brody.
8th- Geoff
Episode 21: 777: the third and final lucky seven challenge. In this one, Don had build a casino and told the teams they were to win as many Don bucks from the machines that they could. The Old team ended up losing the challenge, as Duncan cheated and got his team penalized for it, but Don revealed it was a non elimination challenge! Owen and Gwen then found out Duncan and Heather were working together. Because they voted Owen off this episode.
Episode 22: A Triathelon: In a callback to the Season 1 finale, Don came up with 3 challenges for the teams. 1st up was the water skiing challenge. Owen and Mike were to compete in that one. Second up was the kneeboarding challenge, which Gwen and Sammy were to compete in. Third and finally, it was a jet ski race to the finish between Heather and Carrie. Duncan was to drive the boat while Mike and Sammy would have to swap drivers in between the 1st and second challenges.
Owen ends up sucking at waterskiing and the team never recovers from the fall. Duncan and Heather threaten Gwen to vote with them, or else they’ll vote for her and send her to a tiebreaker in which she would be eliminated. Gwen complies and Owen gets voted off, feeling very sad that he had been betrayed twice that season, and from his closest friends. Duncan calls off the alliance because he felt bad after seeing Owen sad.
7th- Owen
Episode 23: Chef’s Buffet: Don reveals he planned to merge the teams here, but since they were already so neatly in a 3v3 he would leave them together. The challenge was to fish, with their bare hands, and cook the fish on a fire they would start with their rafts, and the judge panel, consisted of Don, a returning Chris, Chef, and former competitor and recent eliminee Owen would be the judges. Owen ends up giving the Old teams fish a bad score, causing them to lose and be sent to elimination. Gwen, Duncan and Heather all don’t trust each other, and none of them talk about who they’re going to vote for with each other. In confessional, Heather gives a goodbye speech as she believes she has no chance. Gwen shockingly gets sent home in a 2v1 vote. Duncan votes her because he thought she’d vote him off with Heather because of what he did. Plus their history.
6th- Gwen
Episode 24: Merge Squared: This challenge takes place on 4 separates rafts with Heather in the middle. a good old game of competitive pickle in the middle. With 5 people, and in a square formation. The teams were merged again. Just to be put in a brand new style, 4v1 game! This challenge was a game of four square between Duncan, Sammy, Carrie, and Mike while Heather was in the middle, standing on tall wooden pegs trying to intercept the ball. She had a net. The goal was to pass the ball between her legs 10 times without her intercepting. They would score a point if they did. Otherwise, she would score. It was first to 4 points.
Heather ended up miraculously coming back from a 3-1 deficit and defeating the team of 4. Don was shocked at the outcome and said it had never been done before but Heather wins the 1v4!! The votes are cast and it ends up being the end of the road for Sammy’s very impressive run.
5th- Sammy
Episode 25: Don announces there was to be a change of plans, and two contestants were to be eliminated this round to leave two for the finale. Don reveals there are two formerly mutated contestants in the mines that have been there all season. Ezekiel and Dakota. He says they were both demutated and are ready to be evacuated. Whoever brings each of the contestants up, wins a trip to the finale. Duncan ends up saving Dakota first and by a large amount of time, securing his spot in the finale. Don encourages him to mess with the remainders in a way of getting a bonus of choosing who to face in the finale for winning. Duncan goes straight for heather and exclaims “FOR OWEN” as he knocks her off Ezekiel, allowing Carrie and Mike to grab him and tie reaching the surface as they both emerged at the exact same time. Heather is eliminated, but Don says they will have to have a 3rd place challenge in the jam packed finale!
4th- Heather
Episode 26: The Reloaded Finale: Don and Chris both host this action packed finale. There is a board with the previous 25 challenges on it. Don is given the honors of spinning first. He says it’s a throwback finale. And for the 3rd place March to be settled first, he would spin a challenge for them to repeat. He lands on episode 3s challenge, which reminds Mike of Zoey since it was her elimination challenge. Chris reveals he had hidden a marshmallow down there in his house to scavenge and bring back to him, since the original was to bring back the necklace he left there. Mike and Carrie take off but it ends up being Carrie coming out on top when Mike finds Zoey’s necklace down there and he tosses the challenge while leading to bring it back with him. He loses the marshmallow and Carrie advances.
3rd- Mike
Carrie and Duncan each get to spin the wheel for a challenge. Duncan spins Episode 10, the balloon popping one. Duncan and Carrie get balloons on and begin trying to pop. Duncan comes out on top of that challenge taking a 1-0 lead in the finale. He is on game point to become the first ever 2 time winner in Total Drama history. Carrie spins Episode 14, The Big Boom. The episode Duncan conquered earlier in the season. Carrie sighs and Duncan exclaims “yes!” Duncan is ready for his massive boom following Carries mediocre boom, only to hear the Dynamite dude fizzle out. He looks down and the dynamite explodes in his face leaving black smoke everywhere.
It’s 1-1! Don exclaims. “Now, it’s a 1 on 1 tie-breaking footrace to the chill zone, which rests on the new island” Carrie takes off in a head start as Duncan falls over briefly. They both scavenge for wood to build a boat to sail over. Carrie goes with a sail boat, Duncan a raft and paddle. Carrie is caught very quickly as Duncan passes her.
The wind suddenly picks up behind Carrie and she flies past Duncan to land aboard shore with the peanut gallery of all the contestants ever in Total Drama watching, she runs into the chill zone and chills off with the million!!

Summer 2019 - The Swimsuit Swordmaster Seven Colored Showdown: The First Casino - Section 1

As always, lemme know if you see any typos!

Prologue
Start - Part 1 , Part 2

The First Casino

Section 1 – Himeji Survival Casino

With Iori’s know-how, we’ve set our sights on Osakabe’s casino. The section begins with a quote.

“---When people escape from reality, power unbeknownst to them surges forth.”
- By Princess Wall

From this statement, we move to a jungle.

???:
---This world is fun. Because there are no manuscripts.
---This world is cruel. Because there are manuscripts.
The speaker fires gunshots into the underbrush.
???:
Ahahahaha! So! Much! Fuuun!
Ammo from the sky. The howling of guns.
And this princess can stay far away from the the burden of manuscripts and the like with all the stuff to do here.
I mean.
Since the manuscripts never end, Osakabehime needs to keep escaping from the high-strung reality. A-duh.

Osakabehime, now an archer, stays hidden among the jungle foliage.

Osakabehime:
Survival games are the best. Having drinks once it’s over is the best.
Drinking some ice cold ciders, washing off your sweat with a hot shower, forgetting about manuscripts, and continuing on into the night as you please.
Aaahhh ---Vegas is the best!

Lancer Kiyo sneaks into frame.

Osakabehime:
Oh yeah, about those manuscripts…I probably won’t even have time for them.

Closer.

Osakabehime:
I’ve got a wishy-washy feeling that my stick in the mud, demonic editor (Kiyohi) is getting close.

Closer…

Osakabehime:
…But, try as she might. Nothing can tear me away from my escapist fantasy.

Almost at her back…

Osakabehime:
This princess, is gonna beat her in a flash, then I’ll keep having fun however I want!

Everything goes black…and we move back to our own group, still on main street.

Mash:
We’re finally here, Master.
Following her advice from before, we’ve found what has to be the casino she mentioned.
The one Iori-san told us about I mean. The [HIMEJI Survival Casino].
Since it’s called “HIMEJI”, it has to be Osakabehime’s.
Katsushika Hokusai:
Who’s that ye speak of? Ain’t they from my home country too?
Siegfried:
Indeed. But, whenever you mention Himeji...
You all tend to appear bothered in some way. Does it have something to do with the location?
[Well...we're just thinking about Okki ] [Well, there was the Čachtice Pyramid Himeji Castle incident...]

Option 1:

Katsushika Hokusai:
Really. Mayhaps Miyamoto Musashi is having drinks with them somewhere else then!
Miyamoto Iori:
…………

Option 2

Katsushika Hokusai:
Really. The famous Čachtice Pyramid Himeji Castle…
….
…No. Wait. What the heck is that?
Mash:
Err…
Seeing that building is making us dizzy, because of some past memories (trauma) from it...

Branch Merge

Miyamoto Iori:
W-Well, let’s not get wrapped up in whatever you mean. You have the chips we need to get in, right?
Then let’s get goin’! Let’s challenge them to a Swimsuit Swordmaster match!

You enter the HIMEJI, which is a mix of western style casinos with red carpet flooring and tables, but with Japanese sliding doors and architecture for everything else.

Mash:
So this is the HIMEJI casino…
The interior resembles a Japanese style, but it winds up as pretty off-putting.
Oh, but there’s slots, roulette, poker…and hanafuda too.
Fou:
Fo-u! Fo-u!
Mash:
Fou-san really loves hanafuda. But there’s someone over there already…is that Jaguar Man-san?
Jaguar Man:
Mu.
I wonder why looking at these hanafuda cards gives me such bizarre nostalgia pangs.
Sitonai:
Hmm, you’re right. Somehow, I feel it too…
It’s like, [A small feeling of nostalgia towards memories that didn't really matter]
Jaguar Man & Sitonai:
Fu fu fu…
Jaguar Man:
So, you throwing in the towel yet? How's one more match say to you?
Sitonai:
When I get involved with you, there’s a super big feeling of danger, but…
If I always got frightened like some puppy, then the goddesses inside me would complain!
Jaguar Man:
Kuhahahaha! That’s the spirit! Bring it on, complex Divine Spirit from icy lands!
Sitonai:
Bring! It! On!

The two of them bash together in a violent game of hanafuda.

Mash:
Huh?
I thought that if you didn’t have a Swimsuit, you couldn’t reyshift to Las Vegas…

[That’s what he said…]

Siegfried:
…I have my doubts too, but let’s shelf that for now.
What's more important right now is seeking out the manager of this casino, it's Swimsuit Swordmaster.

On the other side of the casino, Bartholomew and his pirates are waiting in front of Mecha Eli 2.

Eli Mark 2:
So, you have come to challenge this casino’s Swimsuit Swordmaster. Please take your ticket.
Mash:
There’s a huge line already…
Katsushika Hokusai:
Seems like she’s popular.
Mash:
Well, let’s go and let Osakabehime-san know we’re here, at least. Or maybe she did this to avoid stuff like that…

Kiyohime pops up again.

Kiyohime:
MA!
STER~!
<3 <3!

[…!] / [Morning. What’re you up to?]
Option 1:

Kiyohime:
Sorry to keep you waiting, Master~. Your love slave, Kiyohi is here (note)

Option 2:

Kiyohime:
GLARF!

Kiyohi spits up blood.

Kiyohime:
Fu, fufu…such wickedness, to be so assertive…it makes me want to avert my gaze, and thrust my spear at reality…
Mash:
(Up to no good then)

Kiyhoime:
Ah, I see there’s others with you. Could you have come here for the Swimsuit Swordmaster challenge?
Katsushika Hokusai:
A’ course! I, Katsushika Ōi…nay, the legendary Hokusai, has come to do just thus!
Kiyohime:
I'm loving the enthusiasm.
Mash:
Kiyohime-san, what’re you doing here?
Kiyohime:
…I came here to urge Okki to do her manuscripts, but she’s being persistent about this Swimsuit Swordmaster business.
Uuuu, I don’t want to have to keep covering for her alone like this…
Our Doujin Circle’s going to get renamed from [Princess x 2] into [Princess x 1]…
Mash:
Osakabehime-san is being difficult about her manuscripts here too then…
Well, if I were put under the same pressure she has for them, I’d probably feel the same way…
Kiyohime:
The only way to get her back on track with her manuscripts is to have her know the feeling of defeat as a Swordmaster.
But since I haven’t been able to get any party members…I’ve been in a rough spot.
Musashi Iori:
Well, that’s all fine now. Since we came here specifically to challenge Swimsuit Master Osakabehime.
We’ll make give her last words in a flash, then give you the chance to swoop in and have her do her manuscripts!
Siegfried:
(This dry, matter-of-fact attitude makes it undeniable that she’s Miyamoto Musashi…)
(But since she insisted on calling herself Iori for now, I shall keep calling her that. Yes)
Kiyohime:
Thank you all so much…
But, you have a [Letter of Challenge], right?

[“Letter of Challenge”?] / [I need more than chips?]

Kiyhoime:
Yes. To challenge a Swimsuit Swordmaster, you must present one as proof of skill to your opponent.
In other words, you must use an exclusive [Letter of Challenge] to face any of them.
Mash:
Now that you mention it, the Swimsuit Lion King mentioned something like that before…
Kiyohime:
…If you don’t have one, then how about you spend some time here and take in some Japanese sights?
There’s a lot to do aside from the Swimsuit Swordmaster fights. I recommend going on some serious sightseeing first, too.
Siegfried:
Hmph, you pose some truth in that.
Know the enemy, and know yourself --- Sun Tzu said that.
We should plan our moves forward as intellectually...yes, intellectually.

He pushes up his glasses.
[ (He pridefully, purposefully, said that so he could jiggle his glasses…!) ]

Gordolf:
Do Servants even need glasses?
…Actually, I don’t think he’s even worn them before now.
Da Vinchi:
Hmm, is it his attitude that’s bugging you? It’s because his WIS stat has gone up.
Gordolf:
I see…
…Hey, wait. We don’t even record a WIS stat, do we!?
Miyamoto Iori:
Anyway. Let’s do what we can about Osakabehime.
We should try to find out what kind of style she has as a Swimsuit Swordmaster before anything else.

Back inside the jungle…

Rushing Guy:
There’s two teams left. Go, go, go!
Impudent Guy:
Leave HP restoration to me!
Sharpshooter Guy:
I’ll take care of sniping!
Gang Member:
They won't even know what hit 'em’! We’ll wipe ya’ out in a jiffy!
Three Guys:
Shut up, moron!
Osakabehime:
Hello, valued customers~.

Osakabe shoots down the Gang man.

Gang Member:
Gue--!
Rushing Guy:
What’d we tell you!
Impudent Guy:
Stupid gang member dude!
Sharpshooter Guy:
Now I can snipe her though…

He gets hit before he can act!

Sharpshooter Guy:
Nowaah---!

From across the jungle, Summer Anne keeps her gun drawn.

Anne:
Too bad, you gotta be quicker than that ♪
Rushing Guy:
Geh, there’s only two of us now! It’s over---!
Impudent Guy:
It’s not too late to get away---!
Blackbeard:
C’mon, don’t say that, you guys are so buddy-buddy! Swoon~!

The two of them get taken down.

Announcer:
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: Swimsuit Swordmaster, Osakabehime~.
Osakabehime:
We won! Yea boi!
Anne:
Yay!

The two girls high five!

Blackbeard:
Yay!

Osakabe and Blackbeard do a secret handshake.

Osakabehime:
Bing bang bop.
Mark II:
…I was on shift. But I am grateful to have been able to conserve my energy.
Osakabehime:
It’s cool, it’s cool. Because you're our best soldier, Mecha Eli Mk. 2!
Mark II:
Praise through such an obvious statement is unnecessary…I will be returning to my prior duties at once now.
The heat index for battles in the secret village is high. I am rust-proof, but will conduct a routine service checkup before getting busier.

Mecha Eli flies away.

Osakabehime:
Fufu, fufufu, fufufufufu.
Whatever you do, it’ll be for protecting the peace of the world, and this princess!
I am Swimsuit Swordmaster, Osakabehime. I’ll take on anyone’s challenge!
All to eliminate the urge for manuscripts! I won’t be held back as the Champion---
And this summer vacay will never end!

Back in the casino…

Kiyohime:
…To summarize, Okki has shut her eyes away from the harsh reality of manuscripts and the like, and Kiyohi wants to do something about it.

[I sense a double lover’s...solution]

Kiyohime:
Honestly now. I'll have you know it's a school parody this time!
Mash:
School…?
Kiyohime:
Fufufu, but the manuscripts aren’t done yet, so it's still a dream. Yes, it’s only a dream (delusion)...
Master~, I beg you, lead a group to take down team HIMEJI!

[What else can I do…alright!]

Katsushika Hokusai:
A’ course! Our enemy is the Castle Yokai of Himeji Castle, Osakabehime!
We shall pull out all the stops for ‘em!
Heheh, dontcha’ worry, she’ll be just fine. I can metamorphasize my katana to beat her without a care.
This nymph has decisively foreseen herself as the strongest swordsman, and her katana’s gonna show wonders!
I shall use the clarity of my talents to compose a portrait of Futsu-no-Mitama, and crush evil with a glimmer!
Siegfried:
Actually, I think we should keep cool for a moment---
And find a place to stay.
Katsushika Hokusai:
(Kuooh….he keep cool! Of course he kept cool!)
(He saw through me so easily, again! …but yeah, we still need to do that…)

[Let’s do that!]

Siegfried:
Phew…as I thought, the clarity of these glasses allows me to strike through all with intellect.
Gordolf:
Did you notice somewhere earlier?
Actually, can you even make reservations normally on a trip like this?
Siegfried:
But how should we go about this---
Miyamoto Iori:
We could just sleep in a straight line outdoors…Servants should be able to do that easily, but…
Mash-san and [Guda] have some luggage with them, which makes things complicated...
…Mu?
Katsushika Hokusai:
Eh?
Was that…a flower petal…?

Flower petals burst in front of you!

Fou:
Fou, Kill Fo----u! (Translation: That smell hits you like a truck! And it’s so wasteful!)

Merlin appears, in a fresh new outfit for summer.

Mysterious Big Bro:
Hahahahaha, aloha. A-lo-haaaaaa!
Oops, my bad. We aren’t in Luluhawa for this one. What a shame. I wanted to enjoy myself somewhere tropical.
But I’m not overly fixated on that stuff. I already missed my chance to go to that, and I'm here in the now.
Yes. This time, the setting is Las Vegas. As such, I’ve put on a temporary outfit to suit the scene.
Hello, children. (English). Tonight makes for a perfectly fabulous, fateful rendezvous. Don’t you think?

[ (I get his point, but) ] / [Who’re you?]

Mysterious Big Bro:
I’m just some mysterious guy. Regardless, my existence can't actually get in your way.
Don’t see me as some enemy, or a spirit that can create Heroic Spirits. I only wish for you to call me your Mysterious Big Bro.
Siegfried:
He gives off no feelings of hostility, from my perspective.
Mysterious Big Bro:
Fufufu…I wouldn’t say that.
I have the capacity to be a temporary enemy, but you can relax, sine I’m just a nice big brother. Any problems?

[Why is your character portrait so dubious right now?]

Mash (Whispering): ^Senpai, ^manners…
Mysterious Big Bro:
Ah, if you happen to be looking for a place to say, I’ve got a big tip for you.
Go a little bit past here, and find the Gildalay Hotel.
There may still be openings at the condominiums.
And why would that be? The truth lies with the owner.
"If there's something you can do for me, then maybe I won't have a reason to deny you."
They might say something like that. Whew. Being able to use clairvoyance certainly is useful.
Mash:
O-okay then…
Mysterious Big Bro:
Although to win the favor of the owner, you might have a battle ahead of you, ok?
And more that will cost you quite a bit of QP to reach.
Siegfried:
We are grateful, Mysterious Big Bro. But why give us this information…?
Mysterious Big Bro:
Oh, this is nothing. I just want all of you guys to experience Las Vegas to the fullest.
I’ll find my fun in leading you guys there.
Fufufu…aside from you guys screwing around and having your shenanigans, I want to see that scary Swimsuit Lion King defeated…
Is that reason (bit) not enough? Fufufu…fufufu…fufufufufu…
Well, victory will be yours in the end. I’ll do my part to help in that.

With more flowers scattering, he disappears again.

Fou:
Fouuuuuu… (Translation: We should’ve beat you here while we had the chance…)
Miyamoto Iori:
……
Well, he didn’t seem like an enemy, so let’s take his words in pride.
Katsushika Hokusai:
Haah…?
That Big Bro was such a sight…Big Bro, right? Not actually a Big Sis?
Gordolf:
Fmph.
“You should hurry up if you want a hotel reservation.” That was obvious.
Also, did he mention a “Luluhawa”? Why do I feel like…I’ve heard of that…before…?

Following the advice, we move down main street to a golden hotel.

Mash:
T-this place would go neck and neck with Luluhawa’s hotel…!

[It’s spectacular…!]

Miyamoto Iori:
Oh man, there’s a pool! This place is too ritzy!
Siegfried:
Let us speak to the owner ASAP…hm?
???:
Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha!
You mongrels are as foolish as ever to present yourselves so openly like this!

[That voice!] / [Oh, where’s D’eon and Dollarcent?]
Option 1:

Mash:
King Gilgamesh! It’s been a while.
Gilgamesh:
Umu. We haven’t seen each other since New York.
Mash:
Oh, where are the two you were with in Luluhawa…?
Gilgamesh:
D’eon is on duty at another casino, and Dollarcent lost herself in one as well.

Option 2:

Gilgamesh:
I respect your foolhardy venture to ask of them first, mongrel!
This and that happened, and right now, D’eon is on duty at another casino.
Dollercent saw herself more fitting for another casino also. Thus, she departed to be among the staff of the Pharoh casino.

Mash:
So you’re by yourself this time, King Gilgamesh…?
Gilgamesh:
Fool.
I am the owner of the Gildalay Hotel, the richest hotel in this Singularity, revered throughout Dazzling Las Vegas.
My resources and recruits hit the data cap…yes, I have earned my bragging rights through my quality control.

Gorgeous P flashbacks to his humble beginnings…

Astolfo:
I saw your recruitment flyers---! I don’t really know what it’s all about though!
Elizabeth:
I saw your flyers, and I think my singing would make this place better!
Red Hare:
I would be content with being paid in carrots! Wait, haven’t I done something like that already?

End flashback.

Prince of Lanling:
After many twists in turns, in the end, I was called to be the secretary this year.

[You chose the right guy…] / [I did see you as a secretary-type]
Option 1:

Prince of Lanling:
I am grateful to be here.

Option 2:

Gilgamesh:
Umu. Such is the reason for accepting him into my ranks at all.

Branch merge

Mash:
By the way, you don’t seem to be in a swimsuit, Prince of Lanling-san.
I thought that you weren’t able to reyshift into this Singularity unless you had one…
Prince of Lanling:
Hm? There’s no such restriction on this Singularity…

[Then…Yagyū-san…] / [He said you couldn’t unless you had one!]
You and Mash share a surprised look.

Mash:
Remember what he said!?
“…this Singularity needs a swimsuit befitting it”…that’s what Yagyū-san told us!
Miyamoti Iori:
That so…that old man’s really good at getting out of trouble…
Gilgamesh:
Well.
From my perspective, you lot have come to Vegas without even booking a reservation somewhere…
Naïve! How very naïve!
“We can make a killing in the Vegas casinos, right? Doors will open up for us with fat cash, right?”
Your lofty dreams are filled with naiveté! 100 out of 100 people would know better than to hope on such a sweet delusion!
Umu. But I’ll show some generosity in the spirit of summer vacation. Camping in Vegas would be harsh for you.
I shall allow it. You may stay at my hotel…so long as you defeat us in battle!
Mash:
A battle for lodging! It’ll be tough, but let’s do it, Master!
Gilgamesh:
Hahahahaha, it’s rare to see you so worked up, Shielder! Come to my side, Prince of Lanling!
Prince of Lanling:
Very well. Come, have at you---

Suddenly, the Prince’s cellphone goes off.

Prince of Lanling:
[Just a minute] (English). Ah, don’t worry, I’m alright to keep fighting.
Gilgamesh:
Fu…no matter where, my secretary will keep doing their very best!

-----------------------------------------------------------------
The battle begins with the Prince taking 2 turns of self-stun to answer his phone call, but eventually you beat him and Gorgeous P.

Gilgamesh:
…I’m a bit regretful that I gave your consent to take that call. Was it worth it for the stun?
Prince of Lanling:
Apologies. I am a leader who takes precedents for their work.
Gilgamesh:
…Tsk. That’s giving me memories as a ritual chieftan. Very well. I will go through with my special offer.
The ferocity in your eyes proved amusing to me, and so I will stay reliant with your whim.
With the space left by Dollarcent, I may have to watch my steps.
Prince of Lanling:
Come this way for your hotel ticket. An employee will explain the rest to you inside.
Please present this room key to her as well.
Gilgamesh:
The casino managers are Swimsuit Swordmasters, all of whom have obtained power in this reality from the Holy Grail.
…I take it you have you been negligent as usual then, mongrel?

Iori and Gorgeous P stare down each other for a moment.

Gilgamesh:
Now, be off with you.
I hope that you warm up to the matter of using QP for the casinos of this place.
Fuhahahaha!
Prince of Lanling:
Yes, hello? Ah, yes, regarding that matter---

The two of them leave.

Kiyohime:
Well then, Master~.
I’ll be waiting in the bedroom for you, so make sure you come alone, okay?
Siegfried:
(Without a second though…!)

[Everyone’s getting a single-type bed]

Kiyohime:
How wicked of you…but I can work with that!
Katsushika Hokusai:
Ah, mayhaps the hotel employees are Sahvants as well?
Let’s go check it out.

You enter the hotel, and get greeted by Tawawa Assassin!

???:
Welcome!
An overnight stay, is it an overnight stay? Apologies for any inconveniences!
I am this hotel’s concierge, Charlotte Corday.
Charlotte Corday:
……Wow, I said it right!
I’ve had to say it a bunch of times already, but it’s so hard to pronounce “Concierge” in Japanese!
Sometimes I say it wrong, like Kon-sheru-ju, or myon-mier-ju, or even Luminosité Eternelle! It’s just been gnawing away at me!
Ufufu, but getting it right may be a sign of good things to come.
Now then, let me direct you towards your condominium-type room. The bedroom has been made to accommodate you all.
We have food laid out for you, assembled with the most subtle of flavors, and…
If you wish to purchase anything else, please alert me.
There is a nearby supermarket, where you I can buy vegetables, meat, and fish for you, if you so please.
If anything inconveniences you, please just let me know!

[That was a mouthful…]

Siegfried:
She spoke with high vigor and energy that people refer to as, “Machine Gun Talk”.
First things first: let’s head for our bedroom and put all of our luggage down.
Everyone:
Agreed!

You enter your bedroom, which is an enormous, two-storied room with a private kitchen and winding staircase.

Katsushika Hokusai:
I wonder why the room is splendored in gold like this.
Why oh why. Havin’ so much of it ain’t in good taste.
Miyamoto Iori:
Ok, now then---
Siegfried:
Ah, please wait a moment. It’s almost time for my spy to return.
Miyamoto Iori:
Spy?

Fūma Kotarō appears out of nowhere.

Fūma Kotarō:
My Lord. My investigation is complete.

[Kotarō!] / [Kotarō-kun!]

Fūma Kotarō:
Hello.
Going by what Siegfried-dono told me, I went to, and gathered info, about the HIMEJI casino.

[Sorry for the off-season work…]

Fūma Kotarō:
Please, it’s nothing.
Aside from my Spiritron Outfit, I know the fun to be had is time-limited too.
…Ahem. I-In any case.
Firstly, let me explain to you the survival game based rules in the HIMEJI.
Teams are comprised of 4 people, with 20 teams in all.
Every team fights at once, and one with the last person standing is the winner.
Since it’s a brawl of Servants and enemies, reviving others is fundamentally barred.
Please take a look at these next.

He shows you pictures of a jungle, a desert, and a cityscape.

Fūma Kotarō:
The casino also has a [Zone] among the battlegrounds.
But over time, the [Zone] ---
[It gradually gets smaller?] / [What’s this “Zone”?]

Option 1:

Fūma Kotarō:
You guessed it.
Over time, the battleground shrinks, leaving the final competitors to clash whether they want to or not.

Option 2:

Fūma Kotarō:
Over time, it shrinks. It's a system designed to have the final competitors force to fight close by.

Branch merge

Fūma Kotarō:
Next up is the actual team HIMEJI, whose members are as follows.
Tampering her own Saint Graph to change to the Archer Class is the former hikikomori princess, Osakabehime.
Popping up in the jungle, city, and all other locations with bravado and shootouts, is the marksman Anne Bonny.
Big, scary, and would rather be cooling near the AC, is none other than that Servant. Blackbeard.
The goddess who shoots from the sky when she gets a chance, and kinda unfair? “Report her pls”, Mecha Eli Mk. 2.
Siegfried:
Aha. So all of them are gunslingers then? They’re quite fearsome enemies.
So far, we have Katsushika Hokusai and Miyamoto Iori as definite team members.
Mash should serve as a battle adviser as well, taking precedence as she fights with us.
Mash:
U-understood. I’ll give it my all.
Fūma Kotarō:
I’m very sorry, but unfortunately I still have other duties to perform…
But of course, all of my busywork is for the sake of my Lord.
Siegfried:
That just leaves me…
But I can only fight in close quarters combat. It would be better for us to find someone who is a long-range fighter.
I fiercely recommend recruiting someone else for this battle, and leave me aside for now.
Gordolf:
Umu. You want to have the most basic of basics with a balanced team.
Really we just need one more member…
Meuniere:
I know we keep saying it, but don’t get disheartened from the sudden problem, ok?
Miyamoto Iori:
Hmhmhmmm.
Well, maybe we can go and find a Servant to fit our needs among the ones who came to Vegas.
We should definitely look for an Archer…or maybe a local Caster that gets used a lot normally?
Siegfried:
Lancelot has that gatling gun, but he’s also a Berserker…
The problem is recruiting someone who’s also long distance. Cooperation is crucial too.
Miyamoto Iori:
Putting it together, an Archer is still our top priority. Let’s get out there and start looking before we change plans!

The group heads back out onto the strip, and we run into an old frenemy in his bartender outfit.

Moriarty:
Aww, sowwy! Joining you would mean tons of stress on my lower back, right?
Ah, and also…there’s that bit…about the event…needing…QP…

[Are you a bookmaker again?] / [Do you have anyone in mind then?]
Option 1:

Moriarty:
~Hum ♪
Perhaps an Archer with more than enough free time on their hands…
But nobody comes to mind when I say that…My memories gone foggy. Is it my age catching up?

Option 2:

Moriarty:
No, I'm sorry to say it, but this fifty-something old man is lacking in the friend department...
Yes, woefully lacking...

Branch merge

Katsushika Hokusai:
Lessee see, someone to join...my, are those the same flowers from earlier…?

With more petals bursting out of nowhere the Mage of Flowers reappears.

Mysterious Big Bro:
Hail and well met, travelers. It appears we meet again.
Oh, where’s Cath Pa-…Fou? Are they rolling around in the hotel to escape the heat?
Ahaha, I don’t have to worry about any sudden kicks then. I can safely set my scene of flowers.
Mash:
Mysterious Big Broski…! No, Mysterious Big Bro.
Do you happen to know an Archer that’ll join us?
Siegfried:
Actually, you can probably be an Archer, right?
Mysterious Big Bro:
Unfortunately, I can’t. Oh, but I can shoot swordbeams.
Miyamoto Iori:
(OOH…)
Mysterious Big Bro:
Regardless, there may be an Archer from Chaldea who would be happy to join you.
Maybe a sweet girl, who treats you like a grandchild---
Oops, that’s too big of a hint. Guess this is adieu for now, from Mysterious Big Bro.

With more flowers, he vanishes.
[A Grandchild…]

Mash:
I got it! I know who it is!

With Mash leading the way, we eventually run into Archer Helena.

Helena:
Aah, that sounds like fun! I’m in!

[Nice!]

Mash: Thank you very much, Helena-san.
Helena:
It’s fine, just leave it to granny!
As a Mahatma Archer, I’ll be sure to lead you all to victory!
Ah, but there’s one thing I’d like you to answer. What is Master going to do?
Mash:
Oh, that’s a good point. We need to figure out what to do about Master being needed on the battlefield.
Miyamoto Iori:
Hmm…what if we just label them as equipment?
[That’d be so cruel!] / [I…doubt that’d work?]
Miyamoto Iori:
The opinion’s mutual. But we’ll need you there with us to make sure we can really win.
Of course, we’ll totally keep your safety as the top priority, but the enemies---
Well, maybe since it’s your first time doing something like this, it’ll be fun! I have no doubts that you’ll be absolutely crucial to our win!
Mash:
I-I think I understand. With the confidence Iori-san has…alright.
Katsushika Hokusai:
Aye. There’s a great difference between havin’ ye on the rearguard or vanguard. And yer our precious pal, ain’tcha?
…Aint’cha?

Nod.

Katsushika Hokusai:
Nyahaha.
Siegfried:
Then its settled. Let’s go and practice some coordination tactics.
Lucky for us, the HIMEJI casino has it’s practice fields open for all use.
I think it’d be good of us to get our practice in, while we accumulate chips to purchase the [Letter of Challenge] as well.
Fūma Kotarō:
Very well. I’ll head out to HIMEJI and scout out info for stronger teams among the heads themselves.

Fūma shadowsteps away.

Helena:
That’s right.
Knowing your allies strengths is necessary for battle, so let’s have one too!
Katsushika Hokusai:
Aye, fine by me.
Ye have laid yer eyes upon the unequalled swordsman, Katsushika Ōi, and will bear witness to my clear talents with the blade!

-----------------------------------------------------------------
You have a friendly bout with Helena.

Helena:
That was so fun! Mhm, I have no issues with joining your team now!
C’mon, let’s go take down Osakabehime!
Let’s do our best, and nab that [Letter of Challenge] to challenge that Swimsuit Swordmaster!
Hey, hey, whoaaaa!

[Hey, hey, whoaaaa!!] / [………]
Option 2 only:

Helena:
**...**H-hey! You gotta do it too!
Hey, hey, whoaaaa! Hey, hey, whoaaaa!
Helena jumps up and down.
Miyamoto Iori:
She's hopping around like a cute lil' bunny!
...But, uh, let's keep in mind that she's mentally someone old!
In this world, I believe that appearances are important!

Den Lucky casino flashback tråd som vi ser idag är en mycket gammal tråd som vi inte tycker anses vara aktuell då den är från 2011. Den Lucky casino Flashback tråd handlar, vad vi kan se och tolka det som, om en spelare som troligtvis inte läst igenom regler och villkor hos Lucky casino innan hen börjat spela om riktiga pengar. A wonderful example of this happened in May 2017 when one lucky player won €3.2 million euros on Mega Fortune. Scatters Casino Level-Up System: Wager-Free Rewards .
