Viewtiful Rekk (1:37:43 AM): --------------------------------------------
Viewtiful Rekk (1:38:36 AM): "...Well, that makes me the only person who hasn't dueled." Jin mutters, looking around. "So who's my opponent?"
TheGymRat38 (1:38:58 AM): A deep laugh rumbles up from below.
TheGymRat38 (1:39:45 AM): From the center of the platform appears the giant frame of Adonis Polyxena, the Titanic Obelisk Blue.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:40:01 AM): "...joy."
Y Ruler of Time (1:40:07 AM): "...How'd he get up here?"
TheGymRat38 (1:40:08 AM): "Jin Honjou...I suppose we are opponents! JOY!"
TheGymRat38 (1:40:16 AM): EYE PING!
TheGymRat38 (1:40:20 AM): "I climbed!"
Y Ruler of Time (1:40:31 AM): "...Through solid metal?"
TheGymRat38 (1:40:43 AM): "Also there's an elevator."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:43:30 AM): Jin sighs. "Is he really my opponent...?"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:43:39 AM): "Yes. Shut the hell up and duel."
TheGymRat38 (1:44:41 AM): "It will be my honor to face you in a duel Jin Honjou. Anyone that brings happiness to Miss Sakuma has my respect."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:45:07 AM): "...shut up." Jin groans, one palm to his face.
Y Ruler of Time (1:46:00 AM): "...Keep up with the times, Polyxena. It's far more fashionable to point out his relationship with Amy Sullivan."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:46:26 AM): "...."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:46:31 AM): Jin just stares at Alex.
Y Ruler of Time (1:46:49 AM): "I'm just repeating rumors, I know they're not true."
Rakath Chaos (1:46:51 AM): Amy giggles while clinging to Jin's sister who is crossdressing.
TheGymRat38 (1:46:55 AM): Adonis looks up at Alex...and then down at Jin...and his smile vanishes completely.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:46:55 AM): "Or his relationship with Riku Kayou."
Y Ruler of Time (1:47:10 AM): "That's funny also."
TheGymRat38 (1:47:13 AM): "You...are two-timing Miss Sakuma...with another woman AND a man?"
Y Ruler of Time (1:47:21 AM): Riku snickers.
TheGymRat38 (1:47:27 AM): Adonis's Duel Coat activates. "For that, I cannot forgive you!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:47:31 AM): "...what?!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:47:39 AM): "You...utter imbecile!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:47:52 AM): "I'm not with Lily! I'm not with Sullivan! I sure as hell am not with Riku!"
Viewtiful Rekk (1:48:23 AM): "...b-big brother's got that stabby look in his eyes..."
TheGymRat38 (1:48:42 AM): "Your lies cannot penetrate the shining truth of my muscles! Prepare for defeat dishonorable dog!"
Rakath Chaos (1:49:06 AM): "The truth and proper common sense don't seem to penetrate that either..."
Viewtiful Rekk (1:49:08 AM): Jin groans. "I hate all of you..."
Rakath Chaos (1:49:20 AM): I mean, Amy loves to joke, but Adonis doesn't seem to have a sense of humor either.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:53:48 AM): Jin draws six.
Viewtiful Rekk (1:54:45 AM): "Swift Angel Hermes." A young brown-haired angel appears, a bow in hand. (1600/1000)
Viewtiful Rekk (1:54:49 AM): "One reverse. End turn."
TheGymRat38 (1:56:45 AM): "Draw!"
TheGymRat38 (1:57:27 AM): "Magic card, Arms Hole!"
TheGymRat38 (1:59:28 AM): "When I play this magic card the top card of my deck goes to the grave!"
TheGymRat38 (1:59:47 AM): He holds up The Creator Incarnate and slides it into his graveyard.
TheGymRat38 (2:00:10 AM): "Then I choose an equip card from my deck and add it to my hand at the cost of being unable to normal summon during this turn."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:00:22 AM): "Fine."
TheGymRat38 (2:00:35 AM): His Duel Coat whirs for a moment, and a card pops out. He shows it to Jin. "I've selected Premature Burial."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:01:22 AM): "Thus revive The Creator Incarnate."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:01:37 AM): "Seems very roundabout."
TheGymRat38 (2:01:43 AM): "Perhaps, perhaps not. To continue, I activate Take Over 5 from my hand!"
TheGymRat38 (2:01:57 AM): Five more cards slide off of his deck.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:02:00 AM): "...Ahah."
TheGymRat38 (2:03:26 AM): They are Monster Reincarnation, Necro Shield, Mystic Beast King Barbaros, Majestic Mech-Goryu, and Mirror Shard.
TheGymRat38 (2:04:11 AM): "Since I have no monsters and you have one, from my hand I special summon Cyber Dragon(2100/1600)!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:04:25 AM): "...Tch."
TheGymRat38 (2:04:25 AM): The cybernetic serpentine dragon roars as it appears on Adonis' side of the field.
TheGymRat38 (2:04:47 AM): "I activate the continuous magic card Card of Safe Return."
TheGymRat38 (2:06:12 AM): "Then I play a second copy from my hand!"
TheGymRat38 (2:06:37 AM): "Premature Burial activates!"
TheGymRat38 (2:06:40 AM): (7200)
Viewtiful Rekk (2:06:41 AM): Jin frowns deeply. He's already setting up combos...
TheGymRat38 (2:08:00 AM): "From my cemetery, The Creator Incarnate is special summoned!"
TheGymRat38 (2:08:22 AM): "From my continuous magic cards, I draw two!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:08:29 AM): "Wrong."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:08:38 AM): The Creator Incarnate is sucked down a hole.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:08:44 AM): "Bottomless Trap Hole."
TheGymRat38 (2:09:36 AM): "Two cards, draw!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:09:41 AM): "Tch..."
TheGymRat38 (2:12:14 AM): "I'm afraid that I'm not finished! Monster Reborn! Revive, Majestic Mech-Goryu(2900/1800)!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:12:41 AM): "B-big brother...."
TheGymRat38 (2:13:05 AM): "I draw two!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:14:35 AM): Anna frowns. "That Polyxena...stupid as he is, he has his position for a reason..."
TheGymRat38 (2:14:55 AM): "Cyber Dragon, attack Hermes! Evolution Burst!"
Y Ruler of Time (2:15:14 AM): "...And I'm not ready to face him yet."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:15:27 AM): "...Hermes. Angel Ring."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:15:44 AM): Hermes spins his bow like a blade, cutting effortlessly through Cyber Dragon. (3700/1000)
TheGymRat38 (2:16:31 AM): "Hahaha! What a wonderful response!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:16:44 AM): Jin holds up Honest and places it into his grave.
TheGymRat38 (2:17:16 AM): (5600)
TheGymRat38 (2:17:57 AM): "I'll place two cards face down and conclude my turn!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:18:02 AM): "Draw!"
Y Ruler of Time (2:18:57 AM): "...Hm...Honest...that single card could possibly make Jin the best opponent for Adonis..."
Rakath Chaos (2:19:41 AM): "Yeah, but his big trump got played to save his ass on turn one..."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:19:55 AM): "I activate Divine Gift."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:20:06 AM): "By removing Voltanis Alius from my hand from play, this lets me draw 2."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:22:17 AM): "I will then summon Cyber Vary." The mechanical serpent appears and hisses loudly. (0/0)
Viewtiful Rekk (2:23:01 AM): "...Set one card face down. End turn."
TheGymRat38 (2:23:27 AM): "Draw!"
TheGymRat38 (2:24:32 AM): "I play Mystical Space Typhoon on your face down card."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:25:02 AM): "...Tch."
TheGymRat38 (2:25:37 AM): "During my standby phase, I remove Take Over 5 from the graveyard to draw one card."
TheGymRat38 (2:25:55 AM): "I continue by playing Mystical Space Typhoon on your face down card."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:26:36 AM): Hermes goes ramming into Goryu, removing them both from play.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:26:41 AM): "Light of God."
TheGymRat38 (2:27:27 AM): Adonis removes his holy dragon from the field.
TheGymRat38 (2:29:01 AM): "Activate trap card, Beyond the Grave. By paying fifteen hundred life points I can special summon a monster from my cemetery to the field! So I resurrect Mystic Beast King-Barbaros(3000/1200)!"
TheGymRat38 (2:29:11 AM): (4100)
TheGymRat38 (2:29:15 AM): "And so I draw two cards!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:30:19 AM): "Being rather unfrugal with your life points."
TheGymRat38 (2:33:32 AM): "I spend what I need to."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:33:45 AM): "Just don't spend more than you have."
TheGymRat38 (2:34:32 AM): "I sacrifice Barbaros to special summon Atom the Plasma Warrior(3000/3000)!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:34:39 AM): "..."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:34:52 AM): Cyber Vary would block his attack...so Atom pierces right through to me...
TheGymRat38 (2:35:25 AM): "There's another reason that spending life points doesn't worry me. The equip card, Megamorph!"
TheGymRat38 (2:35:32 AM): Atom(6000)
Rakath Chaos (2:35:33 AM): "That's... not going to end well for Jin... now it can pass his defense, and he can't use Honest defensively against it..."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:35:48 AM): "Shit!" Jin snaps as Atom's power skyrockets.
TheGymRat38 (2:36:07 AM): "Atom, attack him directly! Plasma Burst!"
Rakath Chaos (2:36:09 AM): "And when it gets darker, it gets pitch black right after..."
TheGymRat38 (2:36:18 AM): A beam of energy erupts from its chest at Jin.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:36:21 AM): "AAAARGH!" Jin reels back as the shot hits him.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:36:23 AM): (5000)
TheGymRat38 (2:37:00 AM): "I'll place a card face down and conclude my turn."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:37:05 AM): "D-draw!"
TheGymRat38 (2:37:46 AM): "I told you I would show no mercy in response to your two-timing actions."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:39:33 AM): "I'M NOT TWO-TIMING ANYBODY, YOU IMBECILE!"
Rakath Chaos (2:39:49 AM): "He really isn't... Honest, right Riku?"
TheGymRat38 (2:40:04 AM): "That's what Alex said, and everyone knows he has all information on all students in the school. Thus it must be true."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:40:11 AM): "..."
Y Ruler of Time (2:40:12 AM): "Shut up, Amy. He broke my heart."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:40:17 AM): Jin massages his temple.
Y Ruler of Time (2:40:18 AM): Said with a straight face.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:40:21 AM): "Adonis Polyxena."
Y Ruler of Time (2:40:28 AM): Alex facepalms.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:40:30 AM): "You are the biggest fool it has been my misfortune to know."
Y Ruler of Time (2:40:38 AM): "I just said it was a rumor."
Rakath Chaos (2:40:38 AM): "I still can't believe he picked you over me," if Riku was playing, so is Amy now.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:40:43 AM): "After this duel, please, never speak to me again."
TheGymRat38 (2:40:54 AM): "Your insults are also repelled by my glorious physique."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:41:16 AM): "Set one card face down. End turn."
TheGymRat38 (2:41:25 AM): "Draw."
Y Ruler of Time (2:41:29 AM): "What can I say? I just have a much more appealing physique than you, Amy."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:41:47 AM): "...I feel some level of pity for Honjou."
Rakath Chaos (2:42:06 AM): "No, its just because you put out." Said, with straight face, clinging to the arm of Jin's sister.
Y Ruler of Time (2:42:22 AM): "Are you trying to say he used me?"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:42:24 AM): "B-big brother...." Jo mutters weakly.
Rakath Chaos (2:42:36 AM): "I don't judge."
Y Ruler of Time (2:42:36 AM): He buries his head in his arms and pretends to cry.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:42:46 AM): "G-guys! There's cameras everywhere!"
TheGymRat38 (2:42:53 AM): "Atom, direct attack! Plasma Burst!"
Viewtiful Rekk (2:54:43 AM): "Nnngh!" Jin is rammed once more. God...dammit..! (2000)
TheGymRat38 (2:55:09 AM): "Of course since your life points are now lower than mine..."
TheGymRat38 (2:55:32 AM): He trails off as Plasma's attack points are halved to 1500.
Viewtiful Rekk (2:55:45 AM): "Yes, I can see. Are you done?"
TheGymRat38 (2:56:07 AM): "I'll set a monster in defense mode and then you may go."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:56:12 AM): "Draw...."
Viewtiful Rekk (2:58:14 AM): "Activate Soul Absorption....and sacrifice Cyber Vary for Goddess of Light - Tethys..." (2400/1800)
TheGymRat38 (2:59:33 AM): (backfield: two reverses, two copies of CoSR, Megamorph. frontfield: Atom(1500) and a set defender)
Viewtiful Rekk (2:59:55 AM): ...His two sets....
Viewtiful Rekk (3:00:08 AM): One has to be Mirror Shard...or Magic Cylinder...or Mirror Force....
Viewtiful Rekk (3:00:46 AM): But if I don't attack, he'll just keep hitting me with that infernal warrior....
Viewtiful Rekk (3:02:18 AM): "....Tethys!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:02:25 AM): Jin holds out a hand and hesitates.
TheGymRat38 (3:02:56 AM): Adonis stands perfectly still and meets Jin's eyes. "What will you do Jin Honjou?"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:03:21 AM): "...." Jin clenches his fist. "Just...shut up! Let me think!"
TheGymRat38 (3:03:34 AM): The titanic Obelisk merely nods.
Y Ruler of Time (3:03:38 AM): "..."
Y Ruler of Time (3:03:48 AM): Alex frowns, and looks at Anna.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:05:55 AM): "...Adonis has completely beaten him, on the mental playing field at least."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:07:24 AM): Shit....shit.... "TETHYS! ATTACK ATOM THE PLASMA WARRIOR!"
Y Ruler of Time (3:07:27 AM): "...I think I know what he should do."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:07:30 AM): "MAGIC OF THE LIGHT GODDESS!"
TheGymRat38 (3:08:04 AM): A shield made of bones with a skeletal face on the front appears in front of Adonis and blocks the attack.
TheGymRat38 (3:08:27 AM): "From my graveyard I remove Necro Shield from play to negate your attack."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:08:49 AM): "...." Jin looks like a deer in the headlights.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:09:00 AM): ...Through all of that, I forgot his Necro Shield....
Viewtiful Rekk (3:09:10 AM): "Dammit...! Are you mocking me or something, Polyxena?!"
Y Ruler of Time (3:09:13 AM): "Jin! Calm the hell down!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:09:25 AM): "You had a trap to kill me set face down! Why didn't you use it!?"
TheGymRat38 (3:09:29 AM): "I'm dueling. That is all. No more, no less."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:10:10 AM): "T-tch...end turn...."
TheGymRat38 (3:10:32 AM): "Draw."
TheGymRat38 (3:12:18 AM): "I'll discard The Creator from my hand to activate one of my face-down cards, Rising Energy!"
TheGymRat38 (3:12:57 AM): A fiery aura surrounds Atom as his attack points shoot upwards, settling at his original 3000.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:13:07 AM): "....Allowing you to deal me 1500 points of damage this turn."
TheGymRat38 (3:13:38 AM): "As I said, I am simply dueling."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:13:56 AM): "Stop telling me what you're doing and do it, you buffoon."
TheGymRat38 (3:13:56 AM): The side slot on his Duel Coat opens up. "Field card activate, Kingdom of Giants!"
Rakath Chaos (3:14:50 AM): "I'm confused..." Amy says turning toward the Blue lovebirds, "Why didn't Adonis just use Rising Energy against the attack?"
TheGymRat38 (3:15:00 AM): The arena around them changes to a place filled with blades of grass the size of oak trees and scurrying beetles bigger than elephants.
Y Ruler of Time (3:15:02 AM): "Honest."
Y Ruler of Time (3:15:26 AM): "Adonis doesn't want to risk direct battles anymore, he'll just use Atom to strike Jin until it's over."
TheGymRat38 (3:15:29 AM): "In this place, all monsters of level eight or higher gain five hundred attack points."
TheGymRat38 (3:15:34 AM): Atom(3500)
TheGymRat38 (3:15:51 AM): "Atom, once again, direct attack! Plasma Burst!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:16:07 AM): "Nrgh!" (250)
TheGymRat38 (3:16:14 AM): "My turn ends."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:16:31 AM): "DRAW!"
TheGymRat38 (3:16:40 AM): Atom returns to 2000 attack points.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:16:51 AM): Messenger Angel Gabriel. Jin's Duel Energy appears. "DRAW!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:17:14 AM): White Dancer. The energy flares around him and turns white. "DRAW!"
Y Ruler of Time (3:17:22 AM): "Oh boy..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:17:40 AM): Honest. The energy starts expanding outwards. "DRAW!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:17:58 AM): Another White Dancer. "DRAW!"
Rakath Chaos (3:18:45 AM): "He probably is regretting not killing Tethys now..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:19:05 AM): "I WON'T LOSE TO AN IMBECILE LIKE YOU, ADONIS POLYXENA!"
Y Ruler of Time (3:19:19 AM): "...Nn..." Riku stares at the white energy surrounding Jin.
Y Ruler of Time (3:19:35 AM): "Amy...how common is that?"
TheGymRat38 (3:19:46 AM): "Do whatever you like Jin."
TheGymRat38 (3:20:03 AM): Adonis seems completely unfazed by Jin's outburst.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:20:21 AM): Jin grits his teeth. "Stop it....stop mocking me!"
Rakath Chaos (3:20:28 AM): "Dunno, but considering that belt, and his personalities wonderful anger issues..." Amy trails off figuring Riku gets it.
TheGymRat38 (3:21:05 AM): "You mock yourself by falling so easily to anger. Or hadn't you realized that yet?"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:21:29 AM): Jin looks a bit shocked by that comment.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:21:38 AM): ".....tch."
TheGymRat38 (3:22:04 AM): "What have I done to you other than duel you? Do you grow this angry at every opponent who gains an advantage in a duel?"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:22:19 AM): "Fine."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:22:28 AM): "Then I shall do nothing more than duel from this point."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:22:41 AM): "And I will gain victory from that alone."
TheGymRat38 (3:22:44 AM): "Thank you, that's all I ask."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:24:23 AM): Jin briefly threads through his hand. "...White Dancer, in defense." (1100/1500)
Viewtiful Rekk (3:24:37 AM): "Tethys attacks Atom!"
TheGymRat38 (3:25:26 AM): Adonis sighs. "I prefer to finish duels in battle, but if I must, then I must."
TheGymRat38 (3:25:46 AM): "Activate trap card, Mirror Shard."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:26:21 AM): "...." Jin says nothing. (0000)
Viewtiful Rekk (3:26:43 AM): "....Big brother...." Jo doesn't look happy at that result. At all.
TheGymRat38 (3:27:27 AM): "It was a good duel...and perhaps in the future if you can control your anger, you can become happy with Miss Sakuma gain."
TheGymRat38 (3:27:32 AM): He looks up at Amy and Riku.
TheGymRat38 (3:27:37 AM): "Or...whoever you choose I suppose."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:27:44 AM): "...."
Y Ruler of Time (3:27:51 AM): Riku puts a hand to his forehead and chuckles.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:27:59 AM): Jin walks across the field, and raises an energy covered fist and SLAMS it into Adonis's chest.
Rakath Chaos (3:27:59 AM): "Muscles, we were joking..." Amy deadpans.
TheGymRat38 (3:28:52 AM): Adonis's eyes widen as he stumbles backwards from the blow, putting a hand to his chest.
TheGymRat38 (3:29:05 AM): "I had a bruise there you know..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:29:10 AM): Jin grabs Adonis's collar and brings up his other hand.
Y Ruler of Time (3:29:22 AM): "-!" Riku gets to his feet, races across the arena, and attempts to grab Jin's arm.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:29:24 AM): "Listen to me, you two-genes-short-of-a-monkey idiot...."
TheGymRat38 (3:29:34 AM): And Adonis reaches out and grabs the hand...just as the Dis-Belts kick in.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:29:42 AM): "Lily is my best friend. Nothing more. Nothing less."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:30:22 AM): "Riku is a very good friend of mine. Nothing more. Nothing less."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:30:31 AM): "Amy is my friend. Nothing more. Nothing less."
Rakath Chaos (3:30:39 AM): Amy is actually surprised.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:30:47 AM): "You insult me, and you insult the name Honjou by presuming that I would ever betray any of those friendships."
TheGymRat38 (3:31:00 AM): Adonis glares down at Jin...and then bursts out laughing.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:31:04 AM): "If you EVER do something like that again."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:31:07 AM): "STOP LAUGHING!"
TheGymRat38 (3:31:11 AM): "Honestly...people really do think I'm stupid don't they?"
Y Ruler of Time (3:31:30 AM): "Jin..." Riku grabs his shoulder, "calm down."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:31:31 AM): "...what?"
Rakath Chaos (3:31:38 AM): Amy starts laughing too.
TheGymRat38 (3:31:45 AM): "Teasing you was the best way to get you to duel ferociously. Also it was hilarious how obvious their acting was."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:31:52 AM): "..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:31:55 AM): "...you were..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:32:05 AM): "...but I...."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:32:09 AM): "....on camera..."
TheGymRat38 (3:32:12 AM): "Who do you think I am, Fuji?"
Y Ruler of Time (3:32:14 AM): "Everyone seemed to get it but you, Jin."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:32:17 AM): Jin socks him again, in the jaw this time.
Y Ruler of Time (3:32:30 AM): Fuji watches on camera. "AHAHAHAHAHhAHA!!!!!!!!!!!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:32:41 AM): "I hate you all." He hisses as he turns and walks away.
TheGymRat38 (3:33:01 AM): Adonis rolls his jaw with his hand. "For being so little, he packs quite a punch..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:33:20 AM): "...Hey Honjou. Why didn't your belt..." Jin holds up his arm. The belt is cracked heavily, the gem is completely dead.
Y Ruler of Time (3:33:41 AM): "..." Riku walks back to the group. "We've gotta do something about his anger," said to Amy.
Rakath Chaos (3:33:58 AM): "Yeah... he'll get wrinkles in a year, and a stroke in two..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:34:15 AM): "If I hadn't had to participate in this moronic tournament, I probably would've done this far sooner." He shakes his arm, the belt falls to the ground in pieces.
TheGymRat38 (3:34:30 AM): Adonis shakes out his left arm as well, feeling like the Dis-Belt had drained his energy directly from the arm itself. "What an interesting day..."
Y Ruler of Time (3:34:52 AM): "..." Alex looks at the Dis-Belt remnants. "...I have a drill..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:35:23 AM): Jin sighs. Why is this the limit of my stren- Alastor slams a foot into his back, cutting him off...and sending him over the edge.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:36:02 AM): "GO STRAIGHT TO HELL, DONOVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAoof!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:37:02 AM): "SO ANYWHO!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:37:18 AM): "Quarter finals are done! On to the semi-finals!" Alastor pulls out...a hat.
TheGymRat38 (3:37:36 AM): "Alastor has to be finished...he can't be allowed to continue in this fashion, even if it is to Jin Honjou."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:37:38 AM): "Tsukayama, Tragedy, Polyxena, Hawkeye, reach in and grab a piece of paper."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:37:54 AM): Alastor flips Adonis off. "Right here, a-hole!"
TheGymRat38 (3:38:08 AM): Adonis, being the closest, approaches and pulls a piece of paper out first.
TheGymRat38 (3:38:31 AM): "I was having an external monologue, don't comment on it." His glare is quite serious.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:39:01 AM): "The day of the soliloquy is dead! Don't you read Bob and George!?"
TheGymRat38 (3:39:35 AM): Adonis holds out his paper for Alastor to see: 3.
Rakath Chaos (3:39:49 AM): "Yes, do it properly Adonis Sir," Tragedy poses, "Turn around so Alastor is behind you."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:39:58 AM): Amado snatches one.
TheGymRat38 (3:40:10 AM): Adonis considers this, and then nods to tragedy.
TheGymRat38 (3:40:22 AM): "I suppose you are correct, I erred by not turning my back."
Y Ruler of Time (3:40:25 AM): "You guys both suck."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:40:26 AM): Amado holds up his paper: 1.
Y Ruler of Time (3:40:32 AM): Alex holds up a 2.
Rakath Chaos (3:41:43 AM): Tragedy snatches the last, "Appears I have four.": 4
Viewtiful Rekk (3:41:44 AM): "Alrighty then!" Alastor takes out two dice, turns around, and rolls them on the ground.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:42:12 AM): "...." He shoots a glance back at them.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:42:29 AM): "....eh.....screw the dice!"
TheGymRat38 (3:42:38 AM): (I have card games?)
Y Ruler of Time (3:42:41 AM): "You rolled doubles, didn't you?"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:43:01 AM): "No, I decided that since I'm running the tournament, the finals can be WHAT I BLOODY WELL PLEASE!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:43:12 AM): Alastor crosses his arms over his chest. "BWOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!"
Y Ruler of Time (3:43:14 AM): "He rolled doubles."
TheGymRat38 (3:43:22 AM): "Indeed."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:43:32 AM): "Yup."
Rakath Chaos (3:46:04 AM): "Hmm, possibly, but his choices will be more dramatic than a dice roll."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:46:05 AM): "Okay, fine!"
Rakath Chaos (3:46:10 AM): Mask Gleam
Viewtiful Rekk (3:46:13 AM): "Tsukayama, you're dueling the big guy!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:46:20 AM): "Hawkeye, you're dueling Tragedy!"
Y Ruler of Time (3:46:53 AM): "That wasn't very dramatic," directed at Tragedy.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:47:04 AM): Alastor kicks Alex over the edge.
Rakath Chaos (3:47:12 AM): "No, but your brains vs. my Show will be!" POSE!
Y Ruler of Time (3:47:18 AM): "SUNNOVABIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITCH!!!!!!!!!"
Rakath Chaos (3:47:39 AM): Tragedy sweatdrops at the kick.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:47:43 AM): "Now, I'm gonna go get him. Let this be a show to anybody else who wants to make smart comments."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:47:49 AM): "...'cept Adonis, 'cause he's really big."
TheGymRat38 (3:47:57 AM): "Its true! I am!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:48:18 AM): Wings appear on Alastor's arms. He flies over the edge and eventually comes back, with Alex...in a headlock between his legs.
TheGymRat38 (3:48:34 AM): "That's...awkward."
Y Ruler of Time (3:48:38 AM): "I hate you, Donovan."
Rakath Chaos (3:48:56 AM): "Not exactly the best way to enter a scene..."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:49:14 AM): Alastor tosses him back on to the platform.
Y Ruler of Time (3:49:30 AM): Alex gracefully...falls on his face.
Rakath Chaos (3:49:44 AM): "...at all."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:49:51 AM): "Good luck, Alexander." ....Jin says as he stands behind Amy.
TheGymRat38 (3:51:06 AM): "Jin! You've returned! But how? We were already mourning your passing!"
Y Ruler of Time (3:51:09 AM): "That was quick. Elevator?"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:51:22 AM): "...one, there were trampolines at the bottom, Adonis."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:51:27 AM): "Secondly, I ran up the side."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:51:52 AM): Jo's eyes light up. "Like in Nar-" "NOT like in Naruto."
Y Ruler of Time (3:51:55 AM): "Jin, have I mentioned since the finals began that I hate magic?"
TheGymRat38 (3:51:59 AM): Adonis looks suddenly sad. "I always break trampolines..."
TheGymRat38 (3:52:08 AM): He shuffles his huge feet.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:53:42 AM): "No, you haven't."
Y Ruler of Time (3:53:53 AM): "Right. Well, I hate magic."
Rakath Chaos (3:54:21 AM): "You're just jealous of it."
Y Ruler of Time (3:54:49 AM): "No, I'm mostly just sick of it throwing me into walls and off of cliffs."
TheGymRat38 (3:55:04 AM): Adonis sweeps Alex up in a crushing bear hug. "I understand your pain! I too have no magic!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:55:13 AM): "...." Jin sighs.
Y Ruler of Time (3:55:49 AM): Alex's lungs compress. "Poly-xena...can't...breathe..." Crackle. "Oh god, are those my ribs?"
Rakath Chaos (3:56:07 AM): "Big guy, that much love will break him."
TheGymRat38 (3:56:27 AM): "No, that sounded more like your sternum."
TheGymRat38 (3:56:36 AM): He blinks. "Oh. Right!"
TheGymRat38 (3:56:39 AM): He releases Alex.
Y Ruler of Time (3:56:49 AM): He gracefully falls on his face again.
Y Ruler of Time (3:56:57 AM): "...I need a vacation..."
Rakath Chaos (3:57:11 AM): "And probably bandages, they heal everything."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:57:16 AM): Anna walks over, and jabs him with one of her (shoeless) feet.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:57:20 AM): "Still alive?"
Y Ruler of Time (3:57:40 AM): "In a broad sense."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:57:49 AM): "Ah, good."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:58:03 AM): She grabs one of his arms and drags him over to the sidelines.
Viewtiful Rekk (3:58:13 AM): "He'll need some time to recuperate, go on ahead without him."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:58:33 AM): "..." Amado grins. "Guess that means we're up, big guy."
TheGymRat38 (3:58:59 AM): "So it appears. Its earlier than I thought it would be for a duel between us since we first met."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:59:09 AM): "Heh."
TheGymRat38 (3:59:10 AM): "But you've earned your way here, so I'll enjoy the challenge."
Y Ruler of Time (3:59:16 AM): "I hated you then too!"
Viewtiful Rekk (3:59:18 AM): "You said to beat Kudasai before you got your disk repaired."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:59:31 AM): "I did that."
Viewtiful Rekk (3:59:51 AM): "Now I'll just beat you down, and be one step closer to being the Kaiser!"
TheGymRat38 (4:00:20 AM): "I like your spirit, but I'm afraid the next Kaiser will not be Japanese, but rather Greek."
Y Ruler of Time (4:00:53 AM): "American!"
Viewtiful Rekk (4:00:55 AM): "American."
Viewtiful Rekk (4:01:37 AM): "No no no, the Kaiser after that!"
TheGymRat38 (4:01:57 AM): "Oh, the Kaiser after that will be Hawaiian."
Viewtiful Rekk (4:02:01 AM): "C'mon! Let's do this!" Amado activates his Cleaver Disk.
Rakath Chaos (4:02:11 AM): Amy looks between the various people, "I'm the only one that doesn't want Kaiser...?"
Y Ruler of Time (4:02:21 AM): "Yo."
TheGymRat38 (4:02:34 AM): "You should meet our Hawaiian first year student. He's really quite talented."
Viewtiful Rekk (4:03:00 AM): "WHO CARES ABOUT HAWAIIANS?!"
TheGymRat38 (4:03:22 AM): Adonis begins to shuffle his deck, smiling as he walks back towards his previous spot in the arena.
TheGymRat38 (4:03:33 AM): "Let's take our discussion to the dueling field, shall we?"
Viewtiful Rekk (4:03:47 AM): "That's what I've been sayin', ya idjit!"
TheGymRat38 (4:04:07 AM): "Idjit?"
Viewtiful Rekk (4:04:18 AM): "What? It's an insult!"
TheGymRat38 (4:04:49 AM): Sweat-drop. "Not a particularly good one..."
Y Ruler of Time (4:05:21 AM): Facepalm. "I almost wish the thief had won to disrupt this..."
TheGymRat38 (4:05:23 AM): He nods and gives Amado a thumbs up. "How about calling me an imbecile for your trash talk? That seems popular today!"
Viewtiful Rekk (4:05:39 AM): Amado grunts. "I don't piggyback on insults, y'idjit!"
Rakath Chaos (4:05:52 AM): "No... the thief woulda made this worse..."
TheGymRat38 (4:06:30 AM): Adonis slams his deck into place. "Are you ready little red?"
Viewtiful Rekk (4:06:39 AM): "I've BEEN ready!"
Viewtiful Rekk (4:07:16 AM): ---------------------------------------------------------------------
