Forums » General Roleplay » Trick or Treat: Throthgar's edgy halloween

This was one night out of the year when no one would think anything of Julia's black and red outfit, or the heavy, lingering stares she gave to anyone she locked eyes with. She would walk around as little more than what she was: a young witch looking for some sweets.

She came upon her first house, a rather large abode. Her senses whispered as to the number of people already inside. They also whispered about sweet, sweet candy. There seemed to be a little bit of noise going on inside. She wanted to make sure she was heard. Otherwise, how was she going to get any candy at all?

She stepped back and held out her hand to the door. An instant later, the door blew off its hinges and tumbled into the house in long, jagged splinters. Perhaps that was a little too much power...

"Trick or treat," Julia droned.

Ipurangi's heroism was tripled as his outfit changed into that of a magical girl and he took on his battle pose as a reflex rather than just because Throthgar asked. His pose was just a grin and a thumbs up, with one shaking foot on his skateboard. As cool as this looked, he doubted he could skate on high heels and so he almost immediately kicked the board aside. "I won't need it for this battle."

When he tried to power up however Ipurangi discovered he had a bit of a problem.... The transformation had removed his battery backpack and other gear... "Hey yo. H-how do we activate this Akuyaku-destroying power!? Throthgar?" The skater asked, his heroism quickly falling again as he found himself powerless.

West was pulled from his feet and dragged into the vortex, while colours and visions swirled around him. While Throthgar and Ipurangi managed to fall with control, West spiraled uncontrollably, his vision growing dark and bile building in his gut. Finally he landed face down back where he started. He wrenched, and brought a hand to his nose to make sure it had not been broken again. Only now, he noticed the white glove upon his hand.

He vaguely heard Throthgar chastising him for not taking his hand, but his head was swimming. He painfully readjusted his position, to get a better glance at the clothing. Gone were the blacks of his cheap costume, and replaced with white and bright pink. What that a skirt? Ribbons?

What-- how--

Somebody - the woman dressed in a yellow skirt was shouting in a language he'd never heard before, and everybody else was striking poses. West just wanted to leave - but he could hardly go running of into the night dressed like this.

The thief staggered to his feet, pulling his short skirt down to try and hide as much as possible - he pounded his fist but a glance at his face would make it obvious he was incredibly uncomfortable.

And a child appears. "Kid," he mutters to the young girl who genuinely seemed to be trick or treating. "Leave. Just run while you still can."

Julia's face did not waver for an instant, but her stare remained fixed on the oddly dressed... men?

"I said 'trick or treat,'" she repeated, raising her hand once more. "I'm not leaving without candy." The air around her hand began to bend and ripple, like an intense heat was rising from her fingertips. "Now then..." She took a step deeper into the house.

"Trick."

The room began heating up.

"Or."

And yet her face remained unmoved.

"Treat."

((What will our team of heroes do in the face of this new threat!?))

The colours, the fashionable outfits, it was an insult to Edgegar, who scoffed at the sight."Hah! Baka! You think silly yet fashionable outfits can stop Edgegar?! Pathetic!" She shouted, holding the katana to the side of her like a real cool villain. She would then bend through her knees a little, loose bits of candy flying past her body as she completed the stance by holding the katana above her head, pointing it at the group.

In their hearts, the crew knew this was the "Fierce Tiger Bloodfang" stance, despite not having prior knowledge of Throthgar bushido combat. The Power Hole had granted them knowledge no man nor woman was ever supposed to know. Hopefully it wouldn't leave the insane at the end of this.

"Baka! It is friendship that will be your undoing! Friendship and lots of pain, inflicted by friendship!" Throthgar retorted, rearing back to slingshot herself towards Edgegar."Go now, Tomodachis! Fight this ultimate baka!"

The background music intensified as Throthgar shot forth in a burst of light, charging at Edgegar like a rocket. Edgegar did the anima gasp, sidestepping the kawaii maid, but leaving himself open for attack. Foolish mistake!

Meanwhile, as the mansion heated up and the fighting was underway, one of the maids came over to Julia, holding a snow shovel. The disheveled maid shoveled up a clump of candy, which immediately melted under the intense heat into a sad clump of physical diabetes. She plopped the clump of sugar into her arms."Happy halloween, chan-chan." The maid spoke in a tired voice, leading her back towards the exit.

Julia looked at the molten mess. She lowered her hand, then simply stared at it. Then something strange started to happen.

All of the candy began to reform, wrappers separating from sweetness, not necessarily into what they had been before, but into something else. Chocolate separated from fruity flavored sweetness, and they became... actual good candy once more.

The girl then looked up at the ensuing battle, the air around them cooling.

"What's that?" she asked in a monotone.

And it was upon seeing those dazzling moves of Throthgar and Edgegar that the knowledge of the Power Hole seeped into his mind and told him what to do. His blue skirt and glasses (that he was already wearing anyway) marked him as 'the smart one' and so his moves were now as clever as a Rick and Morty reference.

"Maid terminal, activate!" He shouted and as he did a ring of blue hardlight formed around him, creating a strange - and not all too ergonomic - keyboard and a hardlight screen with a cute kitten background. "Oh whoa man. I can hack Throthgars like this." He grinned. "Lets do this."

With a soft staccato sound Ipurangi opened a Throthgar Console and began trying to hack something about Edgegar. Being the 'smart' one he couldn't defeat the bad guy but perhaps weaken it or shout out helpful tips to the fighters.

West He cracked his knuckles, and sized up Edgegar. Usually West would be running from such a massive enemy - perhaps it was the intense music that emanated from all around him, but the thought of backing down did not even cross his mind. He was ready to cause some pain and ignore all the bits about friendship.

He darted forward, the back of his skirt billowed upwards revealing a glimpse of the frilly panties beneath - a fan service shot that nobody has ever asked for. He drew his fist back dramatically, a cone of pink light gathering around it. And with a dramatic pivot so his hair flew out gracefully, aimed it square Edgegar's gut.

"ピンク精神パンチ!!!"

His voice echoed throughout the room - but he had no recollection of actually saying those words. They wear meaningless to him, and flowed from his mouth as if spoken by another being.

Julia looked up at the strange display of man-panties.

"I'm leaving," she said, turning around and slinging her candy bag over her shoulder. This place was getting too weird for her.
