prank #53 | video/action for azalea (FOURTH WALL EVENT)
You got a good shot on it, Tron? Like you can see the whole thing, right? [There's absolutely no chance that "it" isn't the giant crystal spire growing out of the ground behind John. Or one of them, anyway, Azalea's from the looks of things.]
[As for John himself, he's dressed a little differently than normal and floating high enough in the air to be on level with the top of the tower several yards behind him. Just by looking at the overly large hammer in his hand, it's probably easy enough to guess what he's about to try and do here. At an affirmative sounding buzzing from the camera itself, John flashes a thumbs up and a goofy smile.]
Alrighty then let's do this then! Let's see if I can be a one hit wonder!!
[Laughing, he turns around and zooms closer to his target, pulling his hammer back until he's right in front of the crystal. He swings with perhaps surprising ferocity and with a loud 8ANG! the crystal starts to crack. But wait, that's not all. the force of the impact sets the dice in the back of the hammer spinning and a roulette momentarily appears in midair, spinning wildly. Of course a hammer that ridiculous looking was going to have some kind of gimmick to it. Of course.]
[>16 Sugar High]
[We're not left wondering what that roll could mean for long, luckily. As the crystal continues to crack and shatter from the impact, a strange, sugary transformation takes place. It...it sure is raining rock candy crystal in Azalea now. That's definitely a thing that just happened.]
Hehehe!!! So how was that?! [He turns back to the camera, hefting his hammer over his shoulders.] Pretty sweet, huh?
[John, you and Tron are probably the only two laughing at that...]

[WHERE'S YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR, MAN?]

video;
Hey hey hey, I wasn't offering! This is all on you, buddy!
video;
Come on, bro! School me!
[OR ADMIT THAT IT WAS A GOOD ONE, even if it was admittedly a low-hanging fruit.]
video;
Stop heckling me and I'll school you so hard, you'll end up back in kindergarten!
[What do you mean boasting just makes the situation worse, shut up]
video;
[...even though he's been homeschooled all his life. He still totally wants to get sent back to that carpet. He needs to experience it.]
video;
[Back with Kirikou, he's fidgeting and huffing in his seat, making ridiculous faces as he tries to think of something. It's honestly the look of someone who knows he's not quick witted enough to get it, but dammit, he refuses to admit defeat.]
[After some minutes, however, he suddenly bolts up and nearly falls out of his chair.]
Sugar crash!
video;
[He just looks more and more amused the longer Kirikou thinks about it. He's onto you, boy. You do not follow the path of the comedian do you? Pranks run not through your blood, nor do jokes perform lively jigs on your tongue..]
P-pffttt, sugar crash? What am I, some kinda cartoon super hero with cheesy attack names? [He giggles, but at least it's good naturedly so. He's not laughing at you Kirikou. It's okay. Not everyone is cut out for the merry life of the jokester.] You're not very good at wordplay, are you?
video;
Hey, I thought it was pretty good. [He flops backwards again. He came up with something, so at least there's that? A small victory, but he'll take it.] Okay, fine, I suck at it. I'm better with fighting and raising kids.
Video;
You're bringing some of that home to me, right?
Video;
Hmmm... [He appears to be in very deep thought over this question. It's such a brain buster. Is he bringing some of this sweet, sugary goodness home to his lady?] That depends...I mean I'm perfectly capable of doing such a thing but...
Video;
Rose smiles a little, holding up a pair of familiar white magic needles in her hand and shaking them a little.]
You're not the only one with your strife deck back, John. You are also not the only one who can fly independent of your Pokemon.
[Is this a threat? Over rock candy?
It might be.]
Video;
[HE IS THE WIND BENEATH YOUR WIIIIIIINGS.]

Video;
Are you able to control it this time around? Or will I find you peeping on me while I'm taking a bath again?
Video;
Th-this isn't the same as that!! [HUFF HUFF.] This is the real deal, not that weird ass glitching from last summer. And fyi, I have gotten better at controlling it, thank you very much. I've had two days to practice this time and three days the last time stuff went screwy!
Video;
It's not? Well then, I would be very interested to see what it is now, mister Super-Charged.
Video;
[Are they going to play hide n' seek all across Johto and Kanto...]
Video;
[They're going to play hide n' seek all across Johto and Kanto.]
But heed my warning, John. I will catch you.
And then I will do awful, horrible, unspeakable things to you as my reward.
video; ==> action i...guess???
[John grins mischievously before cutting the feed.]
[Whenever you're ready to fire up those seer powers of yours, Rose.]
action;
If her victory conditions are catching John, finding him should be easy peasy.
Where are you heading, Mr. Egbert...? She can at least start heading towards Azalea.]
[action; well hi]
[She's just blinking, staring at the scene. Rock candy everywhere. John did that? Are those his powers? Maka didn't even know he had powers, but that's a silly thing to assume.
She approaches John and reaches to pat him on the shoulder, an unfamiliar bat-pumpkin-monstrosity floating after her to catch a rock candy in its mouth.]
Well, John, let's hope this doesn't cause a Durant infestation. [DAT'S A JOKE.]
[action; hello thur]
[He looks around and scratches his cheek.]
You think I should clean it up then...?
[action 5ever tbh]
no subject
Yeah, that's not a title I'd like to have I think. I'd rather be the the badass who took out a crystal in one fell swoop! Hehe, lucky for you though...I have just the ability to easily take care of this mess! It'll totally blow your mind.
[JOHN STOP.]
no subject
[But she's smiling anyway, maybe the pun isn't as cheesy as she claims.]
Show me what you've got, Mr. Egbert!
no subject
Nice pun, man.
oh my god i'm so sorry for how long it took to get back on this.
Thanks, dude! I'm glad to hear that at least somebody around here has a good sense of humor.
