[It had started. If the strange electric feeling in the air hadn't clued him in, the fact that Dark Convoy had found him and talked with him would have cemented it. It had also given him an idea.]

Brothers...sister. Be ready. The time is soon.

To all those lacking Glyphs, I extend an invitation to you.

When the dark touch of chaos touches your minds, come find me. I may not be able to cure you of your ills, but at least in studying your descent I may find the tools to understand it.

[He has no more to say, and so he waits to see if there are any takers.]

[ You hear that? That is the sound of a grown mech crying. ]

BUT I'M SCARED!

[maxicpolarity]

[He's never heard anything like that before.

He doesn't know what to think.]

...

[Is this where one is meant to comfort? But...]

...

[What comfort can one give to a body about to be possessed by the spirit of the chaos god?]

...

What.

[Hm.]

What are you scared of?

[misfier]

I'm scared of dying or hurting someone and going crazy! I don't want to go crazy! I never did anything! I'm a good bot! I do my job! I want to go home!

[maxicpolarity]

...

If there is something you've always wanted to do before you die...

I suggest doing it. Now.

[misfier]

[ Disgusting sobbing noises. ]

[Locked]

[maxicpolarity]

Crying isn't going to help, you know.

[He locks this.]

Your friend is doing everything he can to save you.

[Locked]

[misfier]

I don't know what else to do!

But what about him?! I don't want to be alone!

[Locked]

[maxicpolarity]

What is more important?

Being alone, or being dead?

[Locked]

[misfier]

I don't want Fulcrum to die!

[Locked]

[maxicpolarity]

He will.

For you, unless you have something to offer in his place.

[Locked]

[misfier]

NO! YOU CAN'T DO THAT! I DON'T WANT HIM TO DIE YOU CAN'T THAT'S NOT FAIR HE'S ALL I HAVE!

[Locked]

[maxicpolarity]

You have no choice.

[He snaps. He's not used to such emotional outbursts, and they unnerve him just a bit. They aren't something he's learned to manipulate, yet.]

And neither do I.

I may be able to put one or either of you into stasis, but both would be taxing resources that I do not have.

I'd need an offering from you to suffice.

[Locked]

[misfier]

Screw you! We'll figure this out on our own!

[Locked]

[maxicpolarity]

Very well, then.

You may die together, and contribute nothing as you do.

Or, you may bring in someone to take your place, and I will assist you.

[cerebroshellshocked]

don't be scared. it's not as bad as you think it will be. .

[misfier]

Are you crazy?! Yes it will be!

[cerebroshellshocked]

it doesn't hurt Really. In the end you're glad it's over. You just let go. That's what it was like the first time. [Ironfist is trying to be helpful!]

[misfier]

NO NO NO NO NO!
