ENDGAME GROUP 1: The Other Box (Log 2)

[yourghosthost]

[Off-screen, the groups manage to reunite themselves once more. More notable than anything else is the little black floating box, though if any of you have any information you wish to exchange, now would be an excellent time to do so.]

I know this isn’t exactly on the docket, but I intend on heading in there. You’re welcome to join if you’d like.

(ooc: this is the second and final log for group 1 - if you weren’t here for the previous log, feel free to use this as a jumping-in point!)

[ local marvel hero looks at syndrome

is she being pranked, look at this guy, ]

Hello to both of you too.

[roundzero]

...the 'S' stands for 'Syndrome'.

[he can tell you're judging him.]

[whistlenotchirp]

It sure makes you look like an S, that's for sure.

[toogoodforhim]

[Quietly, so he can't hear:]

Because clearly you have one of some kind.

[Then, louder]

What do you want with us?

[roundzero]

We were paid handsomely to ensure that nobody would touch the symbol.

[toogoodforhim]

Of course you were.

By the way, if you're going to use dye to cover how old you are, I'd use it on your whole head next time.

[roundzero]

...Take care of this one first, would you, Syndrome?

[toogoodforhim]

It's not my fault you look like a Madame. Makes me want to put the "ill" in "ill-repute."

[He just calls it like he sees it.]

[whistlenotchirp]

Good lord- are you seriously telling me you'd side with a bunch of stupid wads of jerks, possibly sacrificing a chance of an escape, for some dough.

[roundzero]

We get the dough, then we escape.

[folkscallmewander]

Who're you gettin' it from?

pinging mods?

[not_over_yet]

[ "--to ensure nobody touches that symbol"? ...Did they simply paint over the real one?

Hm.

That incantation doesn't technically need to be sung... so Basil's gonna give reciting it a try. In the most bored, disinterested tone he can, hopefully sounding more deranged than actually-doing-anything.

Though her words are simple and few.
Listen, listen, she's calling to you.
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag.”

...How far does he get? ]

[roundzero]

[...you can hear something from behind the locked door.]

[stenchus_rodentus]

[This sucks. Mostly because he just wants to leave this depression hole.]

Of course you were...

What if I said I could double whatever you were offered?

[roundzero]

You're a rat. You don't have money.

[stenchus_rodentus]

That's clearly not your natural hair color or eyebrows but you don't see me doubting you're a human.

[tangerinetrees]

Of course it does. So is she Syndrome, then?

[ cause like. youre clearly the henchman here. ]

[roundzero]

[...]

No, that's - that's me.

[tangerinetrees]

But you're... pretty clearly her henchman. Henchmen wear their boss' uniforms.

[roundzero]

No. No. I'm Syndrome, she's Cruella.

[kindaruledatit]

....Her supervillain name's cooler.

[not_over_yet]

Right. You're wearing her color scheme purely by coincidence.

[amadeusrockette]

Then shouldn't it be a C?

[Is this an American thing.]

[folkscallmewander]

So I take it that the two of you wanna be Bad Guys?

[tangerinetrees]

Okay, so you're an higher-ranked henchman. And she controls you.
