[1] Well, that happened. And I didn't even die a little bit that time.

[Jen carefully looks into her cup of tea.]

Still...I was hoping it'd take them longer to improve on Nemain's speed ability. Or start churning out the WMDs...

...I have to move faster.

Hellooooooo Unity Group! It is I, the world's greatest neurochemist-slash-metal goddess, DOOMSTAR~!

[Oh, and Doomstar's defected too. That happened.]

So? What shall we do first? A party, maybe! I'll make the drugs and music if you guys provide the food and booze!
[She is very quickly put in handcuffs.]

Eh?! Whyyyyyyy~?!

Even if you helped once, you still have a lot to answer for.

I understand this well. So should you.

But I'm not a bad guy at all! Just a criminally awesome one! Jenny, Jenny, tell them about how nice I can be!

If you're trying the puppy eyes thing, that's not going to work...

Being nice is one thing, but you also...

[Sielje pauses, realizing she is not sure what exactly was Doomstar doing in VIPER. Some kind of science thing, for sure?]

You fought against Unity Group and endangered many a decent folk, multiple times.

[Let's go with that.]

Edited 2016-01-25 03:36 (UTC)

Oh ho ho? Endangered them how, by the loss of their precious stocks of seventy-nine proton atoms? Or through the shattering of their feeble mudanities?
[Somehow, engaging Doomstar in interrogation seems to excite her.]

Jenny, Darling, surely you'll speak in my defence? Our fun times weren't all for naught, were they?

Even if you don't kill anyone, robbery and giant mecha battles are still a crime, you know. And I'd rather you shut up about that other stuff.

[Proton atoms? What is going on here? Sielje decides to hold on to the certain in this storm of weird terminology.]

If you really did not do that much vileness, you can be assured Unity Group will treat you fairly. You shall not be afraid of unfair prosecution and...

...

[A bit slow on the uptake, this time.]

Fun... times?

Yes! Didn't you know? Every few days, the strong, independent Jenny here likes to put on a dog collar and-[The game's PG-13 rating is saved by a timely punch to Doomstar's face.]

You REALLY need to learn shut up about private affairs, you know...

??

[Confused knight is confused. Probably for the better.]

Welcome to being in the custody of "The Man".

Eeeeeeh?! But I'm too innocent for that kind of play! Is this really the end of my maidenly purity?!

Edited 2016-01-26 05:57 (UTC)

You're no "maiden" and you're certainly not "pure", not after all your time with VIPER. But leaving them was the right move, so maybe there's still hope for you yet.

Ha-ha, I knew it! Just you wait, in three weeks I'll be everyone's favorite wacky sidekick!

-Wait, no! Not a sidekick, a main character!

Dream on. At best you're going to tell us everything you know about VIPER and it's inner workings. Do that and whatever cell we throw you in before your trial might have a few luxuries.

"Because we don't like you very much," Dido says bluntly.

Edited 2016-01-25 03:48 (UTC)

But whyyyyy! I'm so lovable, and I even decided to see the error of my totally lame coworkers's ways and help you! At a dramatically suitable moment, too!

"Good for you," Dido drawls. "A shame you didn't defect from VIPER earlier, before you took part in operations that hurt people's lives. Or did you think you could just skate past your Karma?"

A-ha! Silly girl, didn't you know? I didn't kill people, I stole from the rich and gave to the me-just like Ned Kelly! My karma skates are olympic-class.

Dido opens her mouth, then closes it.

"Yeah, I'm not doing this song and dance with you," she says. "You've made people's capital L Lives miserable, so drop the preteen razor girl act and take your lumps like a grown-up. Then maybe you can star with the whole redemption racket."

Dido consults her clipboard. "SO," she says. "Do you have any dietary requirements we should keep in mind?"

[Jen clears her throat loudly.]

...Dido, can I talk to you for a second?

"Yah?" Dido says, walking over to Jen. "...is something the matter?"

[Jen takes Dido aside for a moment.]

Okay, so...I know being tough on villains sounds cool and all, but Doomstar's just an idiot. An idiot who voluntarily decided to join up with our side.

Play nice, okay?

"Are you sure she's an idiot?" Dido says intently. "Idiots don't become masters of pharmaceutical biochemistry. Even if she's switched sides for real, she could still be playing dumb to hide an agenda."

She meets Jen's eyes. "Do you trust–really trust her– to be a team player?"

Because the Unity Group has had a long history of dealing with betrayals and you happen to have spent a long time working with a group that's pretty much gone into Saturday Morning cartoon villain territory but with mass murder, mind control and explosions.

[Calvin is going to be as serious as he can be. Well... As much as he can be with that Polarion Raptor hatchling perching on his shoulder and trying to preen his hair.]

I'd rather not find out you spiked our water supply and end up hallucinating after a cup of coffee thank you very much-

[One sneeze from the bird on his shoulder and he now has a thin layer of frost on his face along with his grimace.]

Edited 2016-01-27 00:22 (UTC)

Don't be so daft, bird-man! Controlling the dosage through the water supply is too imprecise. I'd lace your cup instead.

-Or maybe just give you a magical kiss~?
[At this, Doomstar leans in closer towards Calvin, smiling. The effect is slightly hampered by having her hands handcuffed behind her back.]

[Calvin's calmly going to pull out a small metal case and interpose it between Doomstar and the lower half of his face. The bird on his shoulder lets out a curious caw and pecks at it lightly.]

One, you'd have to find where I put my cup. Two, off the market and not interested.

[He still takes a step back just to be sure.]

... Besides. There's nothing magical about amphetamines or hallucinogenics or what have you coating your mouth... or running through your body waiting to be sweat out like some kind of... tree frog or something.

[Calvin pauses before glancing at Jen.]

She can't turn her skin into one huge contact drug can she?

That is 100% a thing she can do.

Jenny~!! Geez, I can't talk about our time together, but you can?! And what's with everyone getting dates all of a sudden, huh?!

...

... I'm not even going to ask how you know that Jen.

[Calvin just sighs and shakes his head.]

I'll make sure anyone who has to handle her'll be in full NBC protective gear.

Yeah, well, you're not finding out without a fat bribe, anyways. And that much isn't really necessary, she did volunteer for this and all.

That's right! I'm an ally of justice (and fun) after all!

...Though some thick surgical gloves are probably warranted.

-Jenny!!

[Well, it seemed reasonable to send the energy creature without a metabolism to guard the lady who can make skin contact drugs, so here is Kagura to take Doomstar to the cells. The blue flame hand pushes the human unceremoniously in the brig's direction]

Because you're a criminal. Also, annoying. If you collaborate and the information you offer turns out to be good, though, you might even get out.

While we're on that, by the way, if you offer or otherwise push any drugs to any of the minors in this organization, nobody will ever find your body.

[The voices don't even change tone as they say this]

EEEEEK! J-j-jenny, jenny, a gh-ghost!! An anti-drug ghost, straight from 80's PSAs!!
[Doomstar twists and turns to avoid Kagura's touch, instead jumping and doing her best to hide behind Jen.]

Yeah, that's Kagura. She's kind of a bitch.

That I have been for a long time. [The spectral voices seem more amused than anything] Douglas here is probably the only person in Unity Group's ranks with a worse personality than I have.

[The amusement is dropped, though, as she continues] What I also am, however, is serious. Do not try anything with the kids. Unless you fancy a mysterious case of sudden head explosion.

Now start walking. I have to take you to your cell, and I imagine you'd rather walk on your own than get carried like a sack. And no funny business.

Sorry. I ain't much of a party guy.

Oh ho ho~? Don't worry, my fine cyborg friend, we can fix that! The facilities aboard the Brute are more than capable of regenerating human tissue!

[She looks Daniel up and down.]
Ah, though I'd have to make it up as I go along in your case.

We tried to kill each other. Several times already. Do you think I trust you enough to let you experiment on me?
