Hahaha! Hey there, Rastin. Taking us for a trip are you?

She's kinda mad at us right now anyway.

>>188494
Hey Rastin this is totally just between us, but Cora wants to jump your bone if you know what I mean.

>>188493
Yeah, well, you've gotten pretty ugly yourself.

Pickpocketing? Really? You used to be great, man. What happened?

>>188493
Not much. We've mainly been having her run useless errands based on our slightest whims. We pretend we have a plan, but it pretty much changes every time she even moves.

DON'T TELL HIM SHIT GUYS
Especially the parts where we fucked up.

>>188493
She went on a raping spree downtown.

Not much. Just talking to people about what they like.

PS: Your tits are rubbish.

>>188493
It's just as well, green's just not our color, you know.

>>188494
And no, we're not going to tell you why.

>>188500
shut up

...But enough about Coralina, what about you? Got any plans for life after Cora takes your job, Big R?

>>188496
Well, yea, but just that's because she got that anti-rape condom with platypus venom filled needles.

SHIT! YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT! FORGET I SAID ANYTHING!

Yeah, I figured as much.

>Hey there, Rastin. Taking us for a trip are you?
Yup. Going to a birthday party. Should be a swell time.

>...But enough about Coralina, what about you? Got any plans for life after Cora takes your job, Big R?
I do. And you're going to help with them. Vresch should really know I'm not one to play by someone else's rules by now, and I think I've got just the thing to knock his pegs out from under him. You interested?

>>188523
We're always interested in shenanigans.

...why are your eyes red? Are you a robot?

Yeah. Cora's mostly interested in fixating on the small details of a plan Vresch made for her, and gets upset at minor details like unnecessary cyborging, almost getting raped, or letting us accidentally set Hope free.

>>188523
Of course we're interested. That's not much of a guarantee we'll be helpful, though. Not even us saying we'll be helpful is a guarantee of that.

>>188523

We love you too, you big lug.

[Dig our obsidian-sharp edges into his delicate skin.]

Why would you tell him that?!

Why wouldn't you be? We're going to troll the most powerful guy on the planet. And there is nothing he can do about it, because he doesn't know anything about you. And all I need you to do is keep it that way. As long as Vresch doesn't know what you really are, everything will be just peachy. Everything else, you'll understand when we get there.

>Screw ups
Oh, Hope's free? Well that will make everything even easier.

>>188533
Well, she's only partially free. She's possessing a body. She's still in her crystal at the same time.

>>188533
>get there
You mean this birthday party? Who's is it?

Dude, you picked us up just to tell us that the only way your plan can fail is if we tell someone about it?

It seems much more likely that your plan hinges on us telling someone!

>>188531
Why we gotta have a reason for everything?

>>188533
>As long as Vresch doesn't know what you really are, everything will be just peachy.

You've noticed how good we are at secrets, right?

Keeping secrets isn't that important for this. If Vresch ever gets his hands on you, he'll know. And that's just about the worst thing that could happen to you. Right now, you're a wild card. You can get things done outside of Vresch's system. If you compromise that, you'll never accomplish anything in this city ever again.

I think this is the one secret you can be trusted to keep. The only one. Which is why I can't tell you anything else.

>Get there? You mean this birthday party? Who's is it?
No, not the birthday party. That's entirely unrelated to anything at all. Well, anything you'll have anything to do with. It will be very important for me, but you're not coming with.

Ah, we're almost there. You know what? I'm feeling generous. This might be the last time you see me for a while, so go on. Ask me anything you like. I'll answer just one question, so go ahead and waste it.

Which organization should Coralina take over?

>>188547
You know him better than us, what are Vresch's weaknesses?

>>188547
Why are your eyes red?

Of course you're planning to wreck something. That's all you're good for. If you can't make someone love you, you might as well set her on fire. I suppose that's just how it goes for people like you.

You want a question. There's nothing about you worth asking about. You're a pointless bit of trivia, a one-dimensional hollow caricature. You're merely a waste of time, and you're going to keep wasting time until you die and everyone can say "good riddance", toss your body in a dumpster and forget you were ever born.

Actually, I do have a question for you. Who cares how you feel? I don't think anybody could.

How can Vresch be manipulated? Surely the master troll has some idea of that by now.

>>188556
Whoa, who pissed in your cheerios this morning?

Wait, you're one of us. Who pissed in our cheerios this morning? We don't even eat cheerios. That's crazy.

How do you want us to go about the whole deposing thing? Give us the word, we can have some awesome hot-blooded giant robot action in the middle of the city.

>>188547

What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

>>188550
I like that question.

>>188560
There's something more to him than he likes people to think. If I can get him to be defensive, we might find out what.

Vresch's weaknesses, eh? Well, he's such a control freak, for one. He runs such a tight ship. Put one tiny little hole in the side, and he'll panic until it's all better.

He can't stand surprises. And you know how much I love surprises.

>You're merely a waste of time, and you're going to keep wasting time until you die and everyone can say "good riddance", toss your body in a dumpster and forget you were ever born.
"Ah hahaa. AH HAHAAHAAAA!" Oh, I like you. But you're a bit off base. My death is going to trigger something big. And I'm going to make sure of it.

And you're going to have front row seats. I hope you enjoy the show.

"LeVerne, follow these instructions to the letter. You're going to go inside this tiny little compartment inside Rob, and you'll be let out at an appropriate time. I'm going to assume you can't talk to robots, and in case you can, Rob, ignore anything this orb tells you."

"Yes, Master Rastin." They both respond.

"Good. Now, I have a date to attend."

"I know."

And now I know your weakness. You love to feel important. You need attention because you know you don't deserve it.

That doesn't make you worth anything. Five tons of garbage is still garbage.

>>188603
Did you know we are the property of Coralina? Did you know she will confirm this fact?

[I'm betting Rob has standing orders to return lost property, and Rob was given orders to ignore anything we told him, not anything he was asked.]

Hey, didn't we have a robot body at one point? This'll be cake.

I think we should get this news to Vresch. And before you start complaining, Rastin is an ass hole and anything that he's excited for this much can only end badly for us... well not us specifically... more like all the people we have associated ourselves with over the years... months... time... You know what screw it, I just want to help out the lawful neutral demon.

>>188734
But I strongly suspect that Rastin's plan will be awesome if it works. Also, he's right that we don't want Vresch to know about us.

[Dig our obsidian-sharp edges into his delicate skin.]

>>188754
Rastin's last "awesome" plan almost got Coralina raped. I don't feel like waiting around for his next.

agree, his plan will end in something going wrong. let's blow it up.

>>188602
...That conversation. Calling it now.

Kara is back.

>>188917
>>188926
You guys are no fun at all. Cora didn't actually get raped, because she wasn't in a situation she couldn't handle. Vresch is a big boy, he'll be fine. Probably. And if he's not, well, then he'll just have to learn to deal with that.

>>189089
no, you see. that time he was just playing around. this looks like a serious plan.

>>189097
If thats "playing around", then a serious plan probably involves blowing up all of Neotis and leaving the survivors scattered around the wastes.

>>189089
Umm... Cora still got almost raped, which is just as bad because Rastin WANTED her to get raped, and if something happens to Vresch, then that pretty much means the collapse of civilization, again.
Which, in turn, will likely result indirectly in Cora getting completely blinded, or dying.

>>189102
>>189099
Nah, I doubt it.
