Oh right, sorry. I went off on a tangent.
Listen. Trio. Destroyed the Omniverse once already. And it's not every day you catch a reaper while out and about. If I didn't take this opportunity I might have never found him.
Tell the other reapers about Trio. And here take this phone number. It's not mine but the little shortsword's. Don't share it with anyone but other reapers.
I'll get going now. I think you should keep talking to this dashing "farm boy."
If you don't see me at the Trio battlefield I'm probably deaaaaaaaaaaaad!
I don't see any disturbance...but I'm still on duty apparently...maybe it's an omnihole???
...yeah. tha-that's. a good idea. i came here and-- g-g-gave you t-trouble you n-neve never asked f-for... what aam i d-doing here in the f-first place?
i need to l-leave... too... bad guy... s-save universe... lounge... bbbbhyeee.
Well, they’re gone.
*Sigh…*
...Why do people do this. Honestly.
‘Balance Conglomerate”, he said… Pretty sure I can sue them for damages.

Hello ma'am! Thanks for reaching to customer support, and while we do apologize for the damage and will give compensation, we can se that a reaper is located in this photo. I am certain that whatever Spectrum Man was doing was incredibly important, on the basis that-
THE REAPERS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT TRIO, THE NUMBER ONE NE` DO WELLER AT THE CURRENT TIME, CURRENT GOAL, DESTROYING LITERALLY EVERYTHING
Ugh...have a decent day,a check will be in the mail within three days. There will also likely be an apology handwritten (typed) by me.
Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid! What was that!? Could I have been anymore pathetic!!?
...Not now. I can go back to pitying myself after this is over. If the universe really is in danger... then there are worse things to worry about. I guess.
From what that Spectrum guy says, this seems like a big deal... gonna rendevouz back at the Lounge, then find anyone else we may need.
From then on, I think we meet up with the 'Balance Conglomerate', and then take the fight to Trio.
Heheheh... "Trio", huh? At least I know who to blame for the way I feel right now. I won't lose. No matter what, I won't lose.
I didn't plan on being back here so fast, but I'll make this quick: Apparently, there's a powerful threat to the entire world, and beyond that. We have to stop him.. Who's with me?
Woah!
Cungadero.
When isn't there one. Count me in. he says while giving a thumbs up.
A festival's gonna be hosted here for people to square off!
And anyone's allowed to join!
...well, was allowed to join, but the turnout was low...
Don't really know why, but the gal running the thing's still doing it even if it's just us, her, and the heavy red dude.
COUNTERARGUMENT: CHANCES OF UNITS "DEMYX" AND "REVERSE MAN" BEING INCLUDED AFTER OFFICIAL APPLICATIONS HAVE ENDED ARE SPECULATED TO BE HIGH.
I do hope if nothing else, you'll fight for the sake of the festivities!
And when you do, be ready to face the...

Oh! Are these two friends of yours, Big Gilgamesh?
Well, I was going to ask if I missed anything, but it seems that I have not.
Yep. So, did I miss anything, or...?


Cool.
...Though, why are there no customers around here...?
Don't we have other employees, though...?
Huh... Wonder what Reggae's even up to...
...Alright, look. Unless this place gets money, we're not going to be able to afford to keep this place open.
...But I can't always be here to keep an eye on you guys. And if Reggae really is unavailable at the moment...
...Then we might need to work on something that fulfills both of our roles in the case of my and/or his absence.
But-a who would take on-a such a role?
...Ok. Bear with me... but I have a crazy idea.
oh come on!
BREAK ALREADY!
(Gee, destroying everything…)
(As if that ever went well.)
(Villains in the Chaos Zone barely, if ever, succeed.)
(When I was just made, every single time a new baddie appeared I’d get thrilled about warping and speeding all across the universe with a thousand clones and hastily sending every shiny thing to The Treasury…)
(But now I just know. They’ll find that trio, they’ll beat him up… All will be good.
Sigh…
You know, maybe that farm boy was right.
I have to start getting up to something myself.
...
OOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! OOOO!!! OOOOooooooOOOOO!!
Thank you very, very much! I love you, Opera!
!...
...You... mean that?
Yes!
(That stupid kid would never say something like that to me...)
(It's fine and dandy when that pint-sized purple boy says it, but when I proclaim it? Unwanted attention.)
Forgive my impetuousness... but I believe conversation would do us well. I can already assume you have come here for a certain reason, correct?
H... hey now, no need to sweat the details. What if I've only come to greet my one and only sister? Be a shame to leave her all alone.
Curious timing. Regardless... whether you would like to or not, we must discuss your actions.
...
IT WASN'T MY FAULT! HE THREW THE FIRST PUNCH, OKAY!? DOESN'T THAT COUNT AS SELF-DEFENSE!?
Dear sister, self-defense. *table bang* Is the act of protecting one's self to minimize. *table bang* The amount of harm that can be done. *table bang* That is not what you did. *table bang*
You could have escaped via Limbo at any time. So clearly, you did not have self-defense in mind. All you are doing is using the fact that fire person attacked first to shield yourself.
Yeah, well... what if he was waiting for me to do that so he would attack everyone? I had to stop him.
...
*sigh* Alright, alright, I'm full of it. Fine.
I am more than accustomed to your antics by now... however. Ever since your body change, you have been particularly volatile.
Would you, perchance, feel degraded by this recent change? Do you feel as though you have to prove yourself due to your new feminine traits, because being such lessens you?
.....Ehhhmmmm...
Pft.
Please, be careful. I know you are strong. I do not need to worry for you... but what about the people you endanger?
...What about Delta? He is a well-mannered boy, but he worships you. What if he gets hurt trying to be like the one he idolizes so often?
.....Uuuugh...
Well, I am certain that I know these two, and they aren't my enemies.
Well, I don't doubt that they will be able to contribute to today's beautiful display!
Indeed, a landmark of the autumn season, a festival only possible through the cooperation of Rome and Chaldea*...
...my very own Nero Festival!
...
...of course, while Rome has been immortalized throughout history, even in this world...
(I'm just gonna let her stay clueless about that.)
...there is no Chaldea here, and with September already halfway through, I had to improvise on such short notice. Hence the smaller stadium...
But no matter! Even if we must start on a tight budget, we shall make the Nero Festival known here as it was known in my own world!
Mhm... sittin' real comfy over here.
Huh? Oh, hell's yeah... I'm darn tootin' sure I'm up to the task. Call it easy as sheep sorrel pie.
Ponytail, rosehead, midget... it ain't matter! Bring 'em on! May be a hellova gamble... but I'm not too shabby a gambler myself! Gyahaaah!
You wonderful women need to relax. All that scowling and frowning isn't good for the two of you.
Zero deaths, zero mortal wounds... it's being covered as we speak. People are being rehabilitated as well as the surrounding area.
...I hope ulterior motives are not in play. You were never asked for this.
Oh, don't insult me, darling. That is far below something of my tastes. It is merely a man's dignity at heart.
...
Man? Don't make me laugh! You're a pretty boy who cares more about his own reflection than anything else!
That is enough. I will not tolera--
You're one to talk, Princess. Judging by your transformation, are you really able to call yourself manly?
AAAAAAGH! CALL ME PRINCESS AGAIN AND I'LL KILL YOU!
You all and your silly antics. Even if I can be stern, humor is not lost on me. However...
When I say no fighting, I very much mean it. Not for my sake, mind you... but for the both of yours.
Okay now, let's start by creating matter!
*creates sh*t*
Try using it to fight!
hrrrAGH!
(he's picking this up quickly... facinating...)
Attack the dummy...
*some cool action*
*some more cool action*
That's it, you've got it...
*huff puff* TAKE... THIS!!!
HOLY-
Intriguing... I've never seen something like that before!
Heh...
Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z Z (text-to-speach)
Alright! We good now! I think...
Oh wait... already???
Eh, not really. Just did the basics but there's hope I can use it in time...
hmmm...
Well, I hope everything works out for you all... I bid you farewell...
Farewell Boun, we may see each other one day...
Hehehe... its almost time... I just need a scene to work with...
COME ON, COME ON!
rawararararwararawrrawrawrar
Hope you enjoy the gift you got! *jumps down*
OH OH...
Hah... finally... now what-
Oh wait, right! Betach!
nnnnnnNNNNNYYYYOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEeee
I must say, I like- *CLANG* your fighting style, *swish* Weapon Collector! *CLASH* It's... *SHWING* NO coincidence I, too, *SLASH* wield a sword through talent and choice!
Gh...you'd be surprised, Emperor Caesar, my- *CLASH* COLLECTION *SHOVE* isn't limited to swords in *whiff* the slightest!
Just to name a few, there's *toss* this, *WHAP* this, *CLONG* this, and my personal favorite, *CLANK* THIS!!
A man of *swish* many arts, *SLASH* I see...I can *CLANG* re- *shove* late!
AGH-I'm fine, that didn't hurt...!
Far more- *SLASH* than just battle, *CLANG* *shove* *SLASH* be it writing, act- *CLINK* TING, *CLANK* architecture...but for- *whiff* sure my favorite art is theater!
...I mean, I've definitely dropped one-liner in a fight before, but there's a reason I save the talking for between the attacks...
Indeed, I even impress myself!
Hey... don't tell me that came from where the kid was at.
I... believe I had seen Delta walk into the other rooms with the remaining chaircolate he had left. It... may have been...
(It's like they're fighting for the right to be his mother.)
Dammit, squirt! What the hell--
*GASP!*
Hi!
Make a move... make just one move. This here shorty'll get the tar shot outta him. And I assure ya... it ain't no bluff.
W-what--!? Who are you!?! What do you want from here!?
And hand over the kid before I turn you into squash, western wannabe.
Simmer down, fellas. Bein' hurtful ain't gonna rescue nobody!... As if ya could do what ya say ya can.
And, well... as for introductions...
...you can call me...
Concernin' the why... well, let's just say I have business with one 'a you. Ya'lls got two options.
One: Pretty girl in the hat comes with me, and is then bondaged--
Not a chance, creep.
--*ta prevent escape.* I ain't no creep. Thug, maybe.
Heehee! What's the second option, Mr. Arpego?
It's funny ya ask that, varmint...
...We just may find out.
