AND THE PEOPLE WHO GAIN THE WORLD

AND LOSE THEIR SǪ͞UL̨̡͢

[The time goes down to zero. Vyce's fists clenched.]

. . .You fools.

[He raises a hand, and suddenly, Lala lets out a gasp as she begins to grab at her throat. Green lines begin to glow from within her body as she starts to writhe, before falling to the ground into convulsions.]

For all of your claims and bravado, you still voted to condemn her! You claim to care, you claim she is innocent, you claim to want to take her place, but in the end it never mattered!

THIS is why I cannot trust anyone with my mission! THIS is why YOU would fail in MY shoes! THIS IS WHY I ALONE MUST--

[Suddenly, everyone is thrown to the side as something violently jostles the whole house, Vyce included. Immediately, Lala collapses to the floor, and the glowing lines disappear.]

WHAT THE-

[It actually felt like the house was rammed just then.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

This is great news! ... As long as we know someone who can make robots...

[they just blew up Vyce, he can't force him at gunpoint]

I wonder if Lithia's would be good enough?

INFORMATION: IT IS POSSIBLE TO REVIVE INABA INSIDE ONE OF THE SHADES IN COMICRON-ONE'S CARGO HOLD, AS THEY WERE ALSO MADE BY VYCE, AND ARE THUS COMPATIBLE WITH THE NANITES.

IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME FOR THE TRANSFER IF THIS UNIT WORKS ALONE.

[The look on Linkara's face at this was palpable.]

[... Awkward grin...? Sorry, this might be their best bet...]

Well, uh...I guess get on with it, Nimue. And, uh...anyone else who wants to help can help to!

I'll...just be monitoring the cleanup of Jaeris' house then...

[THIS. GOT. AWKWAAAAAAAARD]

[It's ok, sweetie. Have a pat on the shoulder.]

[... Well, he was the one who got the idea.

He turns the page, turns the notebook so he writes vertically, and holds it so that the arrow he drew is pointing to his face.]

VOLUNTEER

Where do you need me to start?

Best way to do this? Anyone who wants to work on the transfer can meet in the cargo hold where the Shades are. Nimue can guide you there whenever you’re ready!

[Thumbs up!]

Shades-lun?

[she's picturing sunglasses. are you going to make lala an ai pair of sunglasses. are we really going homestuck.]

[Oh good someone else is as confused about this as she is.]

Um, shades...? What is that?

[Linkara looks. Like he thinks this is a bad idea]

They are ugly and creepy ghost-looking robots.

Uh. I mean, we can start working on cosmetics once the revival's done but...your friend's going to scare little kids off in the meantime.

But their AI is basic and very easy to override since Vyce lost control of them, so at least there's no problems there.

Cosmetics?

Is that what he did with me?

[if so, it should be fine... he couldn't even tell the difference.]

Yeah, very likely. Otherwise you would like a cloaked figure with no face.

[he's a yooshade. he's a shadesung. wow]

...Well then... I guess I should go along so Nimue can keep up the comparisons.

Would she really want to be in a body made by Vyce though?

[Hey, she should totally be in a cute robot body.]

It's not that bad... as long as Vyce can't control it. We should confirm he's really dead before we go through with this.

Yes, we should. I hope we can get our original powers back since mine would help greatly there.

Haha, I have no idea how that works, so here's hoping!

[being a normie is suffering out in the multiverse]

Maybe it'll work again once your nanites are gone, though...
