*runs back on stage, carrying a couple of pictures*

Good to have you back, Rast... what've you got there?

*shows picture 1 (the picture below)*

See that picture? That showed up at the office where I work. Nintendo is using Pikachu to take over the world! And look at this picture of Kindred! *shows picture 2 (the picture below)*

They're everywhere! And they're all after me! I must conquer the world before Nintendo does, it's for everyone's good.

Uh-huh, the evidence seems clear. I wonder if they realise that subliminal message thing is having an adverse effect on reploids, though...

You said yourself you watch Pokémon... or is it because it makes you violent?

I guess... but Pikachu I don't have any love for whatsoever. Somehow though, there's still the matter of trying to stop watching which is turning out to be hard.

They probably put something in there just for Reploids.

Probably. Perhaps you're right, and it's the fact that it makes us violent that keeps us coming back for more. And, most likely, Nintendo don't care about their little cash co.. I mean, rat, one bit.

Anyway, this is changing the subject, but whatever happened to Edward? You blew him to smithereens and no one ever saw him again. I thought he'd recover.

Actually, he was seen again after that. Multiple times.

Aw... darn.

Seconds after I ripped his head off he was back again... after I blew him away for the third time he got back somehow... I wonder what that guy's done to himself to make himself so... invincible.

He can hide really good probably...

Heck, he probably hid from Death himself!

Yeah, Death did show up a few times during all those Battle Royals. Hey! Someone sent me a Death Summon for RPGEngine... now that you really can summon Death it's actually almost legal to put him in the Battle Royal!

Well, I think it was somehow legal... unfortunately I don't know what game that Archchancellor Ridcully was from...

Well... you can summon Death in D&D (Actually... it's a Minor Death... 15th level, always hits, does some obscene amount of damage (6D6 I think)).

Okay, good enough for me. The Battle Royal's all done now, and 76% of the money went to me, that's all that counts.

True... I still can't believe there are... well... were some people that actually liked Ultros and thought you should treat him better.

We have seen stranger people... well, I have anyway.

Oh, and I finally bought StarCraft again, so now I can be an armchair general once again.

I wasn't even aware you lost it actually. Biggest mistake you ever made, huh?

Yeah... oh! And I persuaded Raynor to give me one of his spare railguns... those things are awesome (even though they're pretty piddly in Starcraft). *takes off his backpack and roots around in it* *pulls out a sink... then a bazooka... then a Toyota* Dang it.. where is it... Oh, here it is! *pulls out a rail gun* It's a backpack o' holding. Gotta love those pocket dimensions.

*grabs a lemon-orange cookie and some Pepsi from his backpack* That's all there is in mine... *moves to eat the cookie, but thinks better of it and puts it away*

Where's Ultros? I want to demonstrate my gun.

He was "fired", remember?

Aw... How about that stagehand? The one behind the camera... can I shoot him?

Heck, I don't know the guy... what do I care.

*blasts the stagehand with a short burst from the railgun* Hey! I even managed to miss the camera!

Nice shot. And to keep with tradition... *pushes a button on his desk*
