FOURTH TRIAL

[The banner up above the basketball court has burnt up, replacing the first part of the phrase. It now just reads “SMOKE EM OUT!”. Coraline’s podium has been replaced with a dead mouse while Morty’s has turned into a pickle - it’s pickle podium.

King Dice’s stand is now selling Pickle Rick merchandise.]

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Space Jam. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of Looney Tunes Lore most of the jokes will go over a typical viewers head. There's also Michael’s pessimistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Space Jam truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Porky wetting himself which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Wayne Knight's genius wit unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂 And yes, by the way, i DO have a Space Jam tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎

[NOT AGAIN, SATAN-]

[Yeah she's gonna try to basically grapple that big hand and break a finger if she can.]

[codeofhero]

Graugh!

[He's got you, Penny! Not even you'll knock him over if you get thrown.

Hey, Aku. do you like lasers? Because Dinobot's focusing really hard to try and fire a burst of green lasers from his eyes at you.]

[shapeshiftingevil]

[It sounds like a tree branch breaking, but it's Jack's voice that screams for a moment there. It's fine he's had worse-] FOOLS! GIVE IT UP! [the lasers are definitely a good distraction as he raises an arm to shield it. Maybe he'll try that move again, but picking up Dinobot to throw at Penny.]

[in4apounding]

NO, YOU!

[The best the Atlesian Military can produce, folks.]

[If he's focused on Dinobot, Penny's gonna try to rush his legs again and try to punch him really hard in the ankle or knee or something, we're not sure on the exact scales involved here besides 'big'.]

[codeofhero]

AAAA-

[Oh dear, now he is getting lifted. He'll attempt to grab onto Aku's arm, but he's getting tossed at Penny, because he can't have a good day in his life.]

Watch out!

breaking post order briefly here

[in4apounding]

[Oh, wow, that's a thing.]

[The smart thing to do would be to get out of the way and attack Aku again.]

[But nah, she's gonna try to catch Dinobot.]

[Or more accurately cushion his impact with the ground as much as possible, bracing her legs and spreading her arms like she's about to be tackled.]

[Boy it's probably a good thing she can't feel pain.]

[shapeshiftingevil]

[He surprisingly didn't think that would work, so he's going to dash forward and slash at whatever he could reach of them-]

[in4apounding]

[Oh boy, yeah, that hurt, she's scrambling to get them both relatively upright and get out of the way here.]

[codeofhero]

[Well, that's a bit embarrassing. But Dinobot is a robot with good reflexes, so it's not too hard at all to regain his footing-]

Back, now!

[And move to push Penny behind him while he raises his arm to block any serious slashing attacks. At least, even on the defensive, he can shoot some lasers at Aku.]

[in4apounding]

Be careful-!

[Okay though those lasers are super cool and boy is she missing her swords right now]

[carbonairhead]

[ the rainbow, straining to hold aku back, ]

[shapeshiftingevil]

[Very effective! Jack-Aku's exhausted all of a sudden, but looking more annoyed than anything]
