[OOC] The War of the Three

[TheWendil]

@The 42nd Gecko

More or less a week. 3-5 days I'd say before making a mention and then moving on.

[KoL]

@The 42nd Gecko

As @TheWindel said.

[Flood]

Now that I realize it, Henry is stocking an awful lot of holy magic power inside his gates, isn't he? Both from Diana's breath and now from some of Ciel's starfall.

This probably won't be good for his health or the Hell in general, I think.

Either way, I'll be posting with Eos and maybe with Ciel once more tomorrow, probably.

@KoL

Don't forget the laser Juno fired at him. Which I totally plan on using this battle.

[Flood]

Henry does a lot of things bad for his health. Silver eye abuse, keeping Sliske's hand, exposure from living in a holey home...

@The 42nd Gecko

Keeping Sliske's hand doesn't hurt him, the act of putting unwilling sentient matter in is what hurts him. The hand is the most that he can put in at once without his heart just exploding.

[Mega Birb]

@floodtalon
Oh yeah, I intend to reclaim that hand in the near future. How? I don't know, I think Henry would get sick of having something such high maintenance in his gates. Am I correct?

[The 42nd Gecko]

@Mega Birb The post literally above yours tells you the answer to that question is "no".

As far as I recall, time doesn't even pass within the Gates of Tartarus, because the plane exists entirely to store things. No need for time to pass within it. So, in retrospect, it makes sense that it wouldn't have an maintenance energy cost.

[Flamelord]

I suppose. It's probably an additional cost on opening portals or something.

[Ryonara]

Posted. I'm really sorry guys, life just seems to give me one disaster after another. I'm currently in the process of moving homes.

[Lmpkio]

@Ryonara No worries. Now that you posted, I can finally move my stuff along.

[Gardevoiran]

@KoL
Sorry I haven't posted, I'll tick something up if I can tonight.

I took a break to hang out with my girlfriend today and de-stress from this year in school. AP classes killed my mood for a good while.

[Lmpkio]

Almost ready with my post. Just one question. @The 42nd Gecko, is Miyu available to battle Unit-T? Is that ok with you?

[The 42nd Gecko]

@Lmpkio The "Battle" would go like this.

Unit-T swats Miyu out of the air. Miyu is dead.

Without Inner Demon around to actually play BEAST, Miyu is more or less legendary for being worthless in a fight.

~~

Summary Redux

Machina have a factory, it has three super exoskeletons and might build more. The angels have a fortress, angels, harpies, and valkyries. The demons have corrupted machina.

Ciel made things windy. And unless it's as windy as Windy would make it, it's hard to imagine why anyone would care. Apparently it was exactly windy enough to tear off parts of the hardened building but not adversely affect any of the machina players fighting in it

Eos kills some of the corrupted machina.

Greg keeps pretending anyone but Birb's other characters when jobbing care about Greg by trying to jump in and taunt Eos, and hits some lights with a thingie.

Torag runs at the factory with angel army in tow.

Nanite swarm begins eating and shooting bullets at Torag.

Lucile kicks Artoria into the battle

Mephila portals into the factory. She kills some of the non-corrupted machina and severly brutalizes an innocent wall to shreds.

Unit-T deploys to the fight outside the factory.

Henrietta cuts her way into the factory, and then fires a rocket at Unit-T who just flew out of the factory.

Ananta magic-blocks the nanite swarm bullets.

Eve tries to stab a nanite swarm. Hopefully she remembers to turn herself on fire before she gets eaten.

Lillian stands at the factory entrance and yells that she can heal people.

New Summary

Ceil continues breezing and punning, bombards Cloud and Unit-T with debris.

Eos lasers the debris that was about to power up Cloud. And traps scientists who have no fighting capability and have already done everything they can inside the doomed fortress. She power of song boosts the machina and sends androids at Greg.

Artoria planny plans.

Hibiki takes Alpha, Shizuka takes Beta, Hibiki takes Gamma. Which is completely pointless as they only function as one combined whole. Huh. Hibiki fires at Ceil while moving around. Shizuka fires bullets at Mephila.

Cloud takes do damage from incoming attacks because idiots keep thinking physical attacks work on nanites. Attacks Eve with nanite whip.

Grafdakka arrives and underground charges at Torag, full power chainsaw drill mode. Fran infiltrates the fortress via dragon.

Mephila uses anti-holy shield, then lance attack's and shield rush.

Unit-T lasor shoots the missile down. Destroys debris with laser breath.

Greg fights six bots while attempting to annoy Eos. Success?

Torag takes the bullets that someone else already blocked for him. Attempts to take Graffdaka head on.

Eve gets out of dodge

Lillian comes back inside to try to record Greg's powers.

Lucille bullies Artoria more, Deva bullies Ruxen.

Ananta continues being Snakemom to Torag, saves him from another attack, then goes to punish the mean god-killing robot that almost did him in.

Ciel bombards KC-00032 with meteors. Aquila bombards Grafdakka and Unit-T with debris. Hoho shows up to say hi. Eos encounters processing errors and forgets to post.

Artoria steals Gamma, begins pouring an entire Gates of Tartarus worth of Lava inside KC-00032.

The Cloud attempts to set the defences of KC-00032 against Ciel's star magic while firing energy weapons at angels but mostly at Torag.

Tartys flies to KC-00032 and fires at the defenders.

Henry destroys speakers, and sets Victoire's demon flowers on the facility. Captures some rogue energy from meteor impacts. Snipes at Hibiki.

Hibiki attempts to blow up the explosives stored inside a dimension she can't access, where time doesn't pass. Sniper bullets plink off her armor, then joins a biker gang, fires anti-portal mirvs at Henry. Shizuka blocks lance hits with shield, creates monomolecular wire trap, while charging energy.

Miyu supercharges the meteor shower at the likely cost of making the angelic fortress explode, and then jumps at the KC-00032

Eve sets herself on fire and hurricane dives at Henry.

Henry solves all her problems with silver eyes, except that of getting tackled by Eve, who's probably pretty splatted by now. Makes smgs.

Standing attacks

Attack 11, Ananta trying to grapple Grafdakka. Concerns Lonewolf and Lucius.
Attack 12, Aquila continuing to throw debris, targetting Grafdakka and Unit-T. Concerns KoL, Lucius and Lmpkio.
Attack 13, Cloud firing energy weapons at Torag. Concerns Flamelord and Birb.
Attack 16, Shizuka's monowire in the path of Mephila. Concerns Ryonara and Lmpkio.
Attack 18, Henry's silver dome in the path of Eve. Concerns floodtalon and Banana.

Lonewolf is definitely waiting on Lucius
KoL might be held up by Lucius and Lmpkio, but might be able to move on without them, as it was a ranged attack.
Flamelord might be held up by Birb, but might be able to move on without them, as it was a ranged attack.
Ryonara is definitely waiting on Lmpkio.
floodtalon is definitely waiting on Banana.

@KoL Seeing you were thinking about making a summary, I thought you might want to know I made one.

[Lmpkio]

@The 42nd Gecko Oh, I forgot the whole Armor-mech thing was scrapped for her. Nvm.

(Also, its NOT Mephilia... its Mephilius lol he's way out of being a girl)

[The 42nd Gecko]

@Lmpkio Once upon a time, I thought I could make Miyu relevant. But then I learned the golden rule of the nexus "The Strong get Stronger". There was no room for someone starting weak to advance fast enough to catch up. And I also learned that all the cool unique powers I had in mind for her to learn were actually just basic level angelic magic that everyone in my faction had access to, but didn't use because they had better stuff. There was no way to become the "Angel of Unity" in the same way that Juno is the master of Gravity and Space, or Ciel is the master of Stars.

Also, as I said last time, it's foreshadowing. If you want your proper appellation, make your own summary.

@The 42nd Gecko

I remember that. Again, she's basically like the only pawn (minus the leaders) to recognize this fact and go against the system.

That damn rebel lol

[Lmpkio]

Btw... Im still not sure who Unit-T should be going after... I don't see any potential characters unless someone volunteers or something.

[The 42nd Gecko]

@Lmpkio Well, you could attack the Angelic Fortress or the people that keep throwing chunks of building at you.

Targets available for a Machina character outside KC-00032:
Aquila- KoL's
Ciel- KoL's
Torag- Birb's
Ananta- Lonewolf's
Random Angelic NPCs- N/A
Angelic Fortress- N/A

[Lmpkio]

@The 42nd Gecko Oh yeah, I can can't I?

I originally wanted to steer clear of the Fortress for a bit, but you know what I might as well.

Aquila and KoL are somewhere observing, Unit-T may or may not get destroyed. Possible confrontation later on, who knows.

Ananta and Torag are charging in with Miyu (I think according to the post).

And so on.

[The 42nd Gecko]

@Lmpkio Ananta and Torag are fighting Grafdakka, though Torag could disengage. Also, the Fortress is literally only guarded by Ciel/Aquila and worthless NPC's you'd swat out of the air effortlessly, and if you distract her for even one post, that probably does a world of good for KC-00032's health.

Agreed. That's what Im going to do.
