[Open/mingle] Alexa Play The Completionist's Theme Song

Who: The Heroes of Light
When: Post-time loops
Where: Myste Aura, particularly the hot springs
What: Mingling! Celebrating both a job well done and 100% completion of the game
Warnings/Notes: Hot spring antics, hot wing antics, potentially washtubs





Everyone knows the Heroes of Light by now. They took the world by storm over the last few days (over and over and over the last few days) and with the calamity averted and Bahamut fended off? They needed a vacation. One on a brand new day would be great; the past few became a little too predictable for anyone's taste. The solution? Celebrate a brand new day at a place they're sure to be welcomed and are least likely to be thrown out. A job well done is well and good as a hero's reward, but a person's got bills to pay and feet to get off of now and then, so the ultimate destination place was an obvious one: the Myste Aura hot springs.

The invitation's an open one and Dante's one of the first to arrive, primarily to get the cooking all set up. There's a lot of it to be done, but given the zora's amused smirk through it all, he's having a good time. It's as much for him as it is everyone else. He could only bring enough for cooking and serving, so no vacation gear here! Gotta bring your own or pick some up on the way over. Either way, it's a stress free time that everyone really needed. Oh...and the invitation insists that the heroes bring along their Calm Deity Masks for an unmentioned reason...


THE HOT SPRINGS

Without a doubt, the main attraction of this trip. The hot springs are world renowned for a reason! Take a dip into the waters and see for yourself. The bubbling warmth of the natural waters are more than enough to let weary heroes and travelers alike unwind and let their troubles melt away for a little while. Some people have actually fallen asleep while settled in these, so be careful to keep your head above water!

Waterside refreshments are also available, particularly beverages. Remember: no underage drinking!


FOOD STANDS

There is. A lot of food. Including the shawarma Dante promised! He's got a few volunteers willing to help keep things clean and organized, but a majority of it is self serve with various kinds of cuisine for all kinds of tastes! As thanks for all the shenanigans Bass puts up with, there's a separate food table for moogles and dishes incorporating kupo nuts. Appetizers, entrees, desserts, it's all here. Dante himself is manning the shawarma station and offering anyone who asks a good, hearty slice of cooked Ochu meat. Trust him, guys; it's so good, it doesn't even need a sauce.


LIVE ENTERTAINMENT

The nice thing about being this close to Myste Aura is that the Bard's Guild is nearby. Once word got around that the Heroes of Light were gonna take a vacation in their neck of the woods, a few enthusiastic volunteers were more than ready to perform as a show of thanks for all they've done. Enjoy the concert of songs, some classics, some composed in honor of the heroes themselves. Naturally, there's little to stop anyone who wants to hop on stage and perform themselves. Hell, the bards would be proud to perform alongside a hero of light! Just don't mind the spotlight you'd be under.


COLLECTIBLES

So remember the whole thing about bringing your Calm Deity Masks? Surprise! Everyone who approaches the table of bagged goodies wearing their masks receives one! Each bag has a collection of goodies inside, from toy crystals to even figurines of the heroes themselves! Were you lucky enough to get yourself or your friends? Nothing's stopping you from trading until you get the one(s) you want!

Along with each bag is a free t-shirt. They have several different sizes just in case and all of them bear a familiar logo as a reminder of the great deed the heroes accomplished.


Wildcard

We're all kicking back and relaxing, I'm not gonna tell you what to do. Have fun, go nuts and remember to clean up after yourself.

(Make toplevels! Relax! Have fun~))

Klonoa slowly floats by, staring at Corrin with a deadpan expression as he gradually slows to a stop just a few feet in front of her. He looks at her. He looks at the figurines. He looks at the bag, and then meets her eyes again.

...Then he slowly lifts up a figurine of Corrin.

"Your death beam laser attack won't work on us, Evil Starscream; Dragon Shield activate!! I'll do whatever I have to to protect my friends and save the world from your evil plan!"

He doesn't actually know Starscream as well as he thinks he does. Maybe he could have omitted a word there.

There's an uncomfortable-seeming silence that descends between the two. Corrin was so busy with the dolls she didn't notice he had joined her in the pool. She can't help but worry Klonoa's opinion of her might be lessened...but then he holds up his Corrin figure and joins in. A wide grin splits her face and she holds up the Starscream figure.

"Foolish Princess of Darkness!" She cackles with the evil known only to cartoon supervillains. "No shield can withstand my Death Laser Blast!" Didn't she call it the "Death Beam Laser" before? "Especially once I...turn up the power to 100%!" This is accompanied by the sound effects that can only be the Death Whatever Attack charging up to a hundred percent power and the sound of an explosion to suggest it has now been fired.

Putting the Red figure aside for the moment, she scrambles and ends up with...the Kid figure. "Watch out, Corrin!" She drawls in a (bad) approximation of Kid's accent. "'e's goin' all out now!"

Klonoa gasps, and strengthen's Corrin's resolve, steeling her against the mighty attack as she grits her metaphorical teeth.

"Ah, it's so powerful...!" He cries out, shaking her there as she weathers the blow. "But I'm not alone here, Evil Starscream! I've got my friends with me--and not only that! I call upon the power of the whale of destiny!

Wait what? Oh, it's S'reee, soaring high above them as shining, empowering light flows down over them all in all of its pantomimed sound-effected splendor.

"Surrender, foe! You cannot defeat us all!"

There is a critical amount of enjoyment going on here.

Corrin's dedication to the show is momentarily broken when "S'reee" makes her appearance as the "Whale of Destiny". The idea of a whale, a full-sized whale, crashing down from above in the middle of a battle, light shining around her...

She breaks out giggling. This is silly, this is very, very silly.

Corrin's going to need a moment.

"W-Whale of Destiny...!"

"You really think a whale can save you?!"

Their reverie was quickly broken by sudden sharp movement from the water beside them; a furred, feral hand lunged out from the surface of the water, seizing the dropped Starscream figure as its monstrous, shaggy form rose out--

Oh, never mind. It was just Red, making a dramatic entrance and putting on his best manic, villainous rasp as he held the figure aloft, adjusting one of its arms to point forward menacingly.

"You shall--"

CLK

...oh, furballs. one of those big fin-looking things on its back just moved in precisely the wrong way and now an entire section of Evil Starscream's body looked like it had been split open.

He immediately drops out of character, mortified that he had just brought their scene to a halt and their villain to an accidental end.

"-wait wait wait, I can--"

Click, click...

"Furballs, it--... huh? hold on..."

Snap, snap. Fold, fold. No, this wasn't broken; these joints were built into the model, but--

--No, wait, if he folds this part here-- the other way, maybe? Yeah, it looks like it's actually starting to--

Okay, so it's a fairly complicated task... but nonetheless, after a few dozen seconds of awkward, show-stalling manipulation of plastic, the entire figure was left in a changed state; something that had to have been some feature of its design.

It had gone from being a robot to being some sort of... sleek, stylish-looking aircraft?

..."UWAHAHAHAHAAAA!"

Finally back in character- and with renewed excitement- it was back to lording the impressive-looking craft over the other figures.

"Tremble in your boots, heroes, and behold-- MY TRUE FORM!"

"Oh wow!" Corrin leans forward excitedly as Red changes Starscream from a robot into a sleek-looking airship of some kind. "I didn't know he could do that!" She looks over at Red. "That is SO cool!"

Oh, wait though, the game is still going on and it's her turn, isn't it? She coughs and then grabs...her Red figurine, complete with DAHAK accessory. "Hey, I'm not impressed." She says in her best impression of Red's own voice. "Why bother with a robot with two modes when ONE mode does everything? Take this, Planeface!" She twists one of the DAHAK's arms up. "THRUST...UPPERCUT!" and then taps the underside of the toy Starscream's jet nose with the toy DAHAK's fist.

Enjoy the mental image of the DAHAK uppercutting a jet.

"Wahoo, yeah! Go Red!!" Klonoa calls out, splashing in the water as he cheers and waves his arms. "You see, Evil Starscream? We can overcome anything if we stick together! And you're not the only one who has a different form!!"

Klonoa calls out, fidgeting with the Corrin doll. Head pushes down, swiveling the clothes, shifting the arms around--

"Behold!" He exclaims, thrusting forth Dragon Corrin, the true princess revealed! "I've become a dragon somehow!!"

He's not very up on Corrin's life history.

Starscream had stumbled upon the little play scene a few moments early but choose to stand back, his arms folded across his chest, and just watch. Their picking him as the villain was nothing more than amusing. It was true, but the 'evil' descriptor meant people still didn't know much about him.

It was probably better that way.

"Oh come on, you think a dragon could defeat me?" He finally spoke as he approaches the group. "I'm a master of the skies and faster than any lizard."

He gave a small glance to Corrin as he said that since it was her figure that turned into a dragon. "No offense."

"Impossible!" Red continued in his sinister screech after several seconds of indignant staring at the buzzkill bomber, giving the occasional sputtering jerk to the F-15's flight path as it soared on his fingertips. "That punch somehow knocked out my afterburners! I'm not going to be able to outrun that mighty and fearsome dragon at my six! I'll have to fend her off with my Zoisite Tactical Laser System!"

He flipped the plane around and rolled it out level with the approaching Corrin-dragon, pausing only to leer expectantly at Starscream. Go ahead, tell Red you're not cool enough for lasers.

Corrin is about to correct Klonoa about her being a dragon "somehow", but suddenly realizes she doesn't have a better explanation for that. Her mouth opens, and then almost immediately shuts. Somehow is as good a reason as any after all!

She's a little bit embarrassed when who of all people should show up but the robot she's picked for the villain in this little skit they're doing. She doesn't actually know him, and while he does seem a bit on the unpleasant side that doesn't actually mean he's really a villain, and is about to offer an apology...

...but you just had to go and diss dragons, didn't you, Starscream?

Putting aside her Red figure for the moment, she picks up the Serge figure. "Oh no! Corrin doesn't have enough time to get out of the way of that laser barrage! But Starscream doesn't have any time at all! Power of the Arbiter! Time Crash!" She raises Serge's arm and then has him spin his oar around above his head. "Now, while Starscream is frozen! Go for it, Corrin!"

A Frisk figure flies through the air at breakneck speeds, followed closely by a Pidge and Vimes figure. They will crash into the Serge figure if they aren't stopped. A fish woman runs after them, not having meant to throw the Pidge and Vimes figures as well.

This, Vimes thought to himself, as he entered, was probably not the best moment to walk in.

It took several seconds for the scene to fully sink in. The shouting, the game of pretend (how old were these people?) the surreal sight of himself in miniature sailing over the crowd-

And at the center of it all, with apparently the largest collection of toys, was Corrin.

He found himself staring blankly, uncomprehending, for the moment.

And then the moment passed, and the sheer force of the barely-restrained snort overwhelmed any effort at holding it back. He snorted, and then a snort turned to a chuckle, a chuckle swiftly dissolving into a deep belly laugh, and before long, he was wheezing, tears streaming down his face.

The whole situation was so absurd, so surreal, that Vimes couldn't think of what else to do. He did, however, catch his breath after a minute, sporting the sort of grin that, if it were the shit-eating type, would have had Ankh-Morpork shining inside an hour. "No, no, carry on. I think you were at the bit where this one-" he gestured at Starscream- "was frozen."

He sank, unceremoniously, into the pool, fumbling for his cigar case as he sat down. Probably he wouldn't get any entertainment that could possibly be better than this, inside.

"Right!" Klonoa cries, advancing the great heroine dragon Corrin on the stunned villain Evil Starscream! She twirls in the air, rushing towards him with the righteous speed that only a true princess of Nohr can carry, stars twinkling behind her.

"Thank you, my friends! I'll never forget this moment! Now, take this, my finishing move: Hyper Dragonlance Spear of Justice!!"

Pshewww! The intricate pyrotechnics are as spectacular as they are invisible as Corrin drives the attack to strike true!

"NOOOOOOO!! My front air intake-- my only weakness!!"

A lilting waver of Evil Starscream's True Form sent him reeling from the blow, and brought him into a tailspin that had him explode--

"pshhhh--!!"

--out of his true form right before striking the stones at the side of the water. And- again, regretfully stalling out the climax somewhat- Red had to take a good few seconds to transform him back to his usual appearance, leaving him prone beside the springs' edge.

Though she's inwardly a little embarrassed when Starscream himself walks in and sees his toy version playing the villain-and especially when Mister Vimes shows up for a soak as well-at least the both of them seem to find the thing more amusing than anything else (which, fair). Corrin does manage to quickly grab the Serge figure out of the way before Undyne's tossed figures smash into him (Serge may not be particularly valuable figure to most, but Corrin is especially fond of her's and doesn't wish to see it damaged). She just hopes Undyne's figures aren't too damaged!

Picking up her own figure of herself, she stands it over the defeated and transformed back Evil Starscream. "It's over, Starscream, finished! With all of us working together we've stopped your plans for conquest and destroyed your Super-Laser. You will never harm another innocent being again! Now the time has come-" With her other hand she reaches out to the pile of figures, but with her attention focused on the important matter at hand there's some fumbling. "-The time has...has come...gods, which one, no that's Kid oh wait yes okay here we go-the time has come for you to face justice for your crimes!"

She then places her Sam Vimes figure next to them. "You're nicked, my old chum." She says in her best approximation of Vimes' accent. "Come along quietly and don't even think about trying to play Silly Buggers with me, it'll go poorly for you if you do."
