    I seriously doubt this because doing this would basically just be a movie based on the show 

    Teen Titans Go is such a generic term that's used so much in the comics and pretty much all forms of Titans media that until we get more information this movie could literally be about anything 

    I just wanted to throw the possibility out there because I wasn't sure of how different the comics were from the show.

  2. Even with some time to get used to it, the element of Animals still sounds funny to me. Icy murdering people was weird to read at first, but I actually think now that it will make the friendship (or "friendship") with Roxy more interesting if the villain she's involved with isn't redeemable... ;)

    Uh, guys....I think what this movie entails just got a little complicated. https://www.movieinsider.com/m4211/teen-titans-go?np=1#plot

    "The story centers on a junior Justice League made up of Robin, Kid Flash, Aqualad, Wonder Girl and Speedy, the respective sidekicks of A-list heroes Batman, Flash, Aquaman, Wonder Woman and Green Arrow."

    "changed the title from "Teen Titans" to "Teen Titans Go!"

    Are they trying to use the TTG name for kid recognition? o.o

    Time to cue the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme.

  4. I didn't know that Robot Rumble was an original story until you announced it here, so extra credit to you, Jjs. :P

    And lmao at how Sandy didn't press further on how Spongebob magically learned how to drive a drilling vehicle. Ironically, Sandy's voice actor also played this girl who magically learned how to drive a bulldozer.

  5. This is not a good time to tell people I have every game now except Sun and Moon. :P

    Yeah, only one I've not played yet is Unova, but I just got White today and finally beat Pokemon X on top of it. My team?

    90zB5A0.jpg

    No, I did not power-level. Never even grinded after the first gym. Don't believe me?

    Compare that to the time it took me to beat Hoenn and Sinnoh with even decent levels, which was well over forty hours. Leveling is just so much easier in that game. I adored the Lucky Egg and those O-Powers. :wub:

    Oh yeah, and Gengar. I finally got to evolve my Haunter into one towards the end thanks to my friend. :3

  6. this thread is going to be the Planes 2 thread 2

    "It's going to suck, but it's not supposed to appeal to me, so whatever."

    So okay, whatever.

    on a real note though what the fuck is this even going to be about 

    this is a show that ran out of ideas with its initial concept so fast that it had to become a parody of itself just to keep pumping out episodes, and even then the plots are so paper thin that the writers don't even try to hide how haphazard the shit is

    how are they gonna occupy an hour and a half lmao 

    ...actually Night Begins To Shine was good as fuck nvm

    and of course you beat everyone to the gold

  7. So I saw this today and I liked it a lot! :D

    https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_lego_ninjago_movie

    Despite what the critics are saying! :D

    Yeah...I am surprised to be (sort of) playing the devil's advocate in saying that this movie was almost as good as The Lego Movie and The Lego Batman Movie and I think that the critics just had Lethal Weapon 3 Syndrome (a classic action comedy trilogy with a great third movie that had oddly mixed reviews). Being a burned out fan of the show like Jjs, combined with the changes they made to the voice cast and character designs and mixed reception, I came in genuinely worried that I was not going to like this that much and was relieved when my worries were quickly dispelled.

    The action scenes and jokes were spot-on like I expected (well, that's also counting a few jokes that were kinda corny and juvenile like the "omelette weapon" instead of "ultimate weapon" gag, but that's beside the point) and I genuinely enjoyed myself the entire time. The mech fights at the beginning were cool, but I loved how they were just a warm-up for the martial arts shit. The reveal of what the ultimate weapon actually was was gold, along with most of the dialogue. The humor flowed really well, as always in these movies, and I laughed really hard at the scene of Sensei Wu's introduction with the Green Element, leading to "Earth, Green, and Fire" and that pink ninja. XD Most of the new voices took time to get used to, especially Jay and Zane's, but after I fell in love with Jackie Chan as Sensei Wu, nothing could tear us apart. :wub: I could tell he was the one enjoying himself most.

    Overall, definitely be your own best critic here, take it from this guy who says this is another solid entry in the Lego Movie franchise. I won't go so far to say, "Fuck the critics", though...unless they touch my pones this way too. Then there will be trouble. (d) You know what I'm talking about...

    250?cb=20170628181737

    I've got eagle eyes on them now. (d)

    Just a joke, obviously. Though just like Lord Garmadon, I will legitimately wonder if the one-star reviews are from trolls.

    “Ow. Whoa, I see someone lost their body...” Tori said, seeing the remains of Scrappertin’s body on the floor.

    Come on Tori, the joke is "someone lost their head". DX

    Now there's someone who knows comedy. (smirk)

    I actually liked how Scrappertin was revealed to be a truly evil psycho, in contrast to Branton Jack, who was just a jerk with a heart of gold. I also liked the flashback showing Nick as a trucker (how appropriate) and the end tie-in with the Neo Federation. I promise it's not any bias of mine giving me the premonition that Colress has something to do with this...

  9. Episode 19: The Real Demon

    "I'm the only one left who knows what really happened to them…" King Nero said to himself in thought, snickering evilly. "How did it all transpire?"

    Nero tried to think back to how he ended up consuming the soul of Leo, his father, but failed to recall any clear images of exactly what happened.

    "Don't know why that is…" Nero continued to talking to himself. "I only know I consumed him from what Mom told me. Well, that, and the fact that I can still feel him inside of me, heh heh heh heh heh…I'm disgusting…"

    An image of Leo in darkness flashed through Nero's mind, revealing the dark area he had been in the entire time was none other than his own son's stomach…

    "Reminding myself of this is only making me feel more out of place…" Nero started questioning what was going on in his head. "Why the hell am I thinking about all this now? Is it a thing of pride? Do I have to prove to myself that I'm not afraid of the truth? That I don't have to lie to myself about who I really am? At this point, I may as well just start admitting to myself that I'm not just always dying to eat souls...I'm also always dying to…"

    "Kill…" the spirit of Noimman finished as she appeared beside her son. "You've inherited my bloodlust. I saw it in your eyes that night...you wanted to kill her...you wanted to kill your own mother, just to prove you were stronger than her…"

    ...There was a pause before Nero replied with…

    "Yes. No. In my own selfish desire, I wanted that. But part of me also wanted to stop her from hurting anyone. However, I also selfishly enjoyed the fact that I had the perfect excuse to take my revenge on her for what she tried to do. Though part of me also felt genuine sympathy for her...knowing it couldn't have been just her and that someone was manipulating her…"

    Nero then had a flashback to the night he had confronted Terra after she had knocked Spira out and stolen the crystal ball…

    "Mwa ha ha ha ha ha!" Terra continued to cackle evilly to herself in the hallway, tossing the crystal and catching it. "Finally, I can take my vengeance upon that hack of an exorcist and his sham of a congregation! And she will smite the wicked...mua ha ha…"

    Terra's sinister laugh was soon interrupted, however, by the abrupt appearance of Noimman's spirit in front of her.

    "Oh dear, that won't do…" Noimman teased. "After all, we're both wicked…"

    "Don't you dare compare me to the likes of you!" Terra exclaimed angrily as she formed a ball of light energy in her free hoof that she prepared to use against Noimman. Suddenly, however, she found herself unable to move both of her front forelegs. Looking at her front hooves, she realized both of them were wrapped in dark energy acting like rope to tie them. A dark shadow was beginning to creep up her chest, and in horror, she dropped the crystal ball. Appearing out of the shadow on her body, Terra felt chills all throughout her very being as she gazed upon the face of her son…

    *HISS* *GRRGH*

    Terra trembled as she saw what her son had become, looking into the same, endless spiral Spira had seen. In spite of her fear, she garnered enough energy to ask Noimman…

    "What have you done to my boy?"

    "Don't talk to her…" Nero interjected, angry at being ignored. "Talk to me. I'm the demon who is about to take your soul. I'm the only one to blame for how I ended up this way, and that's irrelevant anyways. All that matters right now is stopping you…"

    "No honey…" Spira replied, regaining her energy to speak from her emotions of incentive. "It's not your fault you ended up like this! It's Noimman's! It's Sombra's! It's mine! I should never have gotten you kids involved with that awful church! I thought they would rid you of the darkness inside of you, but instead they enhanced it!"

    "Hmph, I said talk to me, not try to talk your way out of this with bullshit." Nero retorted in disbelief. "Does, "YOUR SELFISH BROTHER AND HIS BITCH OF A MOTHER ARE TO BLAME", ring a bell? I heard everything you said to Spira, so don't treat me like an idiot."

    "That wasn't me talking!" Spira yelled in defense. "I felt something come over me when I came in your room. Before that, I only intended to use the crystal ball to soothe you with my own light for a short while to suppress the demonic power that was taking control of you! I didn't mean to use it to seal you away!"

    "Likely story…" Nero bemusedly replied with sarcasm. Surprisingly, however, Noimman did not share his doubt, grinning with intrigue at something she could see beside Terra that Nero could not…

    "You do have to ask though, son…" Noimman chimed in. "Where do you think she got that syringe from?"

    "Huh?" Nero responded as he looked over at the syringe in the back of Spira's neck and remembered the syringes Noimman used in her laboratory. "Wait, you don't mean…"

    The scene then shifted back to Nero in the present day, as he realized now what Noimman was trying to hint at…

    "Yata…" he thought to himself in shock. "It was Yata that whole time! He possessed Terra! But how?! And how is it that only Noimman could see him?!"

    Because...Yata is Noimman!

    As Ninja Time God Rarity exclaimed that in Nero's mind, he remembered what Yata had told him about "wanting to become more like God and Noimman", and just like that, everything started coming together…

    "NO WAY!" Nero bellowed. "ALL THIS TIME!"

    "Uh, sire…" one of the ghosts of the nobles said with concern. "I mean no disrespect, but are you feeling well?"

    "Oh, sorry…" Nero apologized, embarrassed that he had made that mistake three times now, blurting out what was on his mind in the heat of the moment. "I shouldn't have shouted like that…"

    "It isn't just that…" another one of the ghosts interjected. "You've been mumbling very strange things to yourself for the past ten minutes…"

    "We even heard something that sounded like, "I didn't want to have to eat you, Mom and Dad."..." another discomforted ghost chimed in.

    Nero was astonished, his face red with embarrassment over how out of touch he had been with the real world, especially during a time such as this.

    Don't be so abashed...everyone gets a little too into their own fantasies every now and then...it's only when you become so comfortable in your own imaginary perception of the real world that things become a problem…

    Fantasy God Discord said those words in Nero's mind, to which Nero was careful to only respond in his head and not out loud with…

    "So are you trying to say that I'm deluded, or…"

    No, you are very much aware of the fact that something is very wrong with your world. It's how you react to the fact that's of great interest to us.

    "So my abrupt shouting greatly interests you?" Nero joked. "Would you like to do a full breakdown and analysis of that tired old running gag?"

    As much as I love a good comedy of errors, I'm afraid the greatest error you perpetuate is no laughing matter. You are clearly NOT comfortable with your delusion of reality, your fake self that has to be civilized. You no longer believe in it, yet you keep on playing that character you hate because you feel obliged to. Now, what does that remind me of, hmm?

    "Twilight Sparkle…" Nero replied bluntly. "Noimman did tell me some things about her...and from the impression I got of Twilight when I met her, they seemed to be true. But I fail to see how Twilight and I are anything like each other, at least in terms of personality."

    You never fail to keep us intrigued. Of all the heroes we've assigned for this project, you are the one who is most like Twilight in just about every aspect. You burden yourself with much self-loathing pride, you have a strong commitment to justice and peace despite your glorification of death and darkness, and most notably, you have no idea who you are, lost in an endless sea of convenient half-truths about yourself as you search tirelessly for your true identity.

    "...Tell me who I am." Nero responded after a long silence, still talking to them in his mind and trying to stay calm despite being extremely hurt. "If you know so much, why don't you brag to me about something I actually care about knowing?!"

    Oh God, the worst way to sass someone is with something that isn't even true. You tell yourself every day who you are, a demon in denial, yet you refuse to pay the fact much attention because it's too difficult to acknowledge.

    "...So what you mean to tell me is that I was wrong…..for neglecting the wrong….." Nero answered as his face contorted into a blank, yet unnerving expression. The ghosts of the nobles took note of this, and after having witnessed Nero just standing around and doing nothing in silence for several minutes, they were even more worried now than they were before that something wasn't right with their king…

    "What do we do?" one of them asked another ghost in the group. "If we ask him what's wrong, he's just going to deny it…"

    "While I'm just as curious as you are about what's wrong," answered the ghost, "I think our top priority should be getting out of here. We may no longer be able to die, but I don't feel safe…"

    "Me neither." another ghost chimed in. "Those demons are a new level of batshit nuts. After they tore up our bodies like they were paper, I truly believe they were serious about not being satisfied with just ripping up our flesh. Don't you find it odd how none of us seem to have a powerful grudge or belief that we need to remain in this world, yet we still linger?"

    "You don't think…" the ghost who began the discussion replied, catching on to what he was surmising. "...that it's not our grudge that's keeping us in this world, but the grudge of those demons refusing to let us go to the afterlife?! Haven't they done enough?! Christ, why THE FUCK do those monsters even exist?!"

    Nero overheard this...and still wearing his frightening, emotionless expression, began to move closer to where the ghosts were…

    "Sire?" the same ghost who yelled what had struck a chord with their king asked. "Is something the matter?"

    "Would you like the truth, or would you prefer a convenient lie?" Nero answered with a question. "There was a time where I thought for sure the answer was latter, but now I really don't know. I really don't know what you all want from me anymore, so why don't I just kill my heroes and show you that who I really am...DOESN'T CARE WHAT YOU WANT."

    The ghosts felt a terrifying chill that froze them to the soul as they looked into Nero's eyes and saw that spiral...that mortifying spiral…

    "GIVE ME ALL YOUR HATE...AND I WILL EAT IT." he declared in a demonic voice the next time he opened his mouth…

    "RRRRRAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!"

    The screams...of demons could be heard from the church of Pies. Just as Spira had feared, they had attacked another place beside the castle, the church she and Nero used to go to. When Spira arrived at the church, she was relieved to see that the Helllights and Nightbringers were already there to counter the invading devils. Vincent and his subordinates were dealing with the ones at the entrance, with Vincent wielding a sword and spear, slicing up demons with one weapon while skewering them with the other, and Gordon and Ricard using their ghostly powers to possess the demons and have them fight against each other. Smirking as she saw the demons' numbers already dwindling to almost nothing, she jokingly asked…

    "Need any help?"

    "I think we're good." Vincent facetiously answered as he pierced his spear through the last demon's lower jaw and head. "It's generally safe to assume that when you're done taking out the trash, the job of hauling it off to the dump to be incinerated is already taken care of for you."

    Spira chuckled as she got that the dump meant hell, but as she watched the demons disappearing into dark mist, her expression became serious again as she pondered something...

    "Is it just me, or do any of you find something about this off?" she asked the Helllights.

    "Off?" Gordon replied. "In what way? Does it have to do with them showing up at the church, a holy place? I think it's only coincidence, just like how there are demons and ghosts here now…"

    "Though I'm surprised by the first time I've witnessed you trying to be funny while bringing up a good point," chimed in Ricard, "I agree. I've yet to see any signs of any correlation of their abrupt appearance here to an ulterior agenda. Unless...you know something that we don't..."

    Spira's memory was triggered, thinking back to what they wouldn't know regarding the church…

    "The last time I talked to my mom about the church," she told them, "she seemed to be very upset with them. She talked about how they had failed her and allowed my brother to become-"

    Spira stopped herself as she realized that she was about to tell them about her brother actually being a demon.

    "...a shadow of his former self." she decided to tell them instead. "I'm sure you've picked up on the darkness that lies within my brother's heart. He's never been the same since the last day we went to church as a family. Since then, my eyes have become more open to the evil in this world, and I fear that this "holy place" is not as holy as the church leaders want the goers to believe. I became especially concerned when the gods Nero and I told you about mentioned something about "manipulating the general public"..."

    "Oh…" Vincent replied, catching on. "Oh...so you think that there's a correlation between those lunatic gods and this likely lunatic congregation…and even if there isn't..."

    Vincent and the others then looked at the church with suspicious glares on their faces before Vincent finished by saying…

    "...it's sure as hell worth investigating…"

    The Helllights and Spira then entered the church, passing through the lobby and going into the auditorium where the service was held. There, they saw the Nightbringers, sitting around a church that was in shambles. The benches and the podium had been cut to ribbons during the fighting, the corpses of Pinkie Pie and Maud Pie clones who were killed in the conflict were all over the ground, and blood was splattered on the walls and floor.

    "Oh my God…" Spira reacted to the sight with dismay and sympathy for the casualties. "If only we found out this was going on sooner…"

    "Don't feel any guilt." Trish shared some words of comfort with Spira, seeing her distraught reaction. "I communed with the spirits of the ponies who died. They departed peacefully, and from what I know, no one's soul was eaten by a demon."

    "Though we were very happy to see that there were survivors," interjected Vergil, "there was one bystander who wasn't exactly innocent…"

    Vergil then got up to reveal that lying behind him was a Pinkie Pie clone who had been tied up with ropes of blue spirit energy created from Vergil's aura and had an elaborately colored cloak tied around her head. She was giggling profusely in a creepy way that had Spira and the Helllights feeling uncomfortable.

    "What did she try to do to you?" Spira asked in concern.

    "She attacked us." Dante answered bluntly as he flicked a syringe. "She tried to nail me with a poison-laced needle from afar while we were trying to fight the demons. Even though poison has no effect on us, her cowardly tactic pissed me off, so I happily agreed to Trish and Vergil's suggestion to torture her for information."

    "Damn, he does not bullshit…" Spira and the Helllights thought in response to how upfront Dante was about it.

    "Before you ask," interjected a perceptive Trish, "no, she did not suffer too much. If anything, I felt like I was the one being tortured with how she actually seemed to enjoy my lightning strikes…"

    "She gave up everything we wanted to know very quickly." Vergil continued. "It wasn't very engaging. I didn't even have to break an organ or defile anything sacred."

    "Uh…" Spira and the Helllights replied in confusion.

    "It's not what you think." Vergil clarified. "I only meant the church's treasures. She caved in when I threatened to destroy that."

    Vergil pointed to the church organ...on which, a surviving Maud Pie clone was playing off-key while saying in a dull monotone…

    "Daddy, do you want some sausage? Daddy, do you want some sausage?"

    "I think the pieces of the puzzle on why our king is the way he is are starting to fall into place." Dante suggested. "And I don't just say that because of stuff like that...the Pinkie Pie clone we interrogated shared some very insightful bits of information with us...not just about Nero, but also about you…"

    Dante said that while looking at Spira, to which she responded…

    "...Me? What was she saying about me?"

    "She told us that neither you or your brother are of this world, but of one beyond." Dante explained. "That you're here to ensure the success of some project called, "The Spiriting", using the help of spirits you call Noimman and Fluttershy. Is that true?"

    "WHAT?!" Spira yelled in her mind. "How could an ordinary Pinkie Pie clone know something like that? Nero and I haven't even told anyone about our mastery of combining Yin and Yang yet!"

    "Hee hee hee!" the Pinkie Pie clone laughed in an ominous way. The Nightbringers reacted by rolling their eyes in annoyance, but Spira was deeply bothered…

    "It isn't like them to resort to torture either…" Spira thought. "That Pinkie Pie clone definitely has a link to not just my family's past, but also the past of those gods…for now, however..."

    "Yes." Spira begrudgingly answered Dante's question, trying to think of a way she could use this unprecedented turn of events to help her brother. "I don't know much about "The Spiriting", other than vague details given to me about it from Fluttershy, but it's true that Nero and I don't belong to this earth. In fact…"

    Spira bit her lower lip and clutched her front hooves, trying to pluck up courage to say what she was about to confess…

    "Nero and I have always believed that the reason those gods gave up their thrones so easily is because they had always planned to make us the rulers of Equestria, from the day they first conceived us and this world!"

    Both the Helllights and the Nightbringers were taken aback...by Spira acting as if she had disclosed something truly scandalous.

    "That's it?" Dante retorted. "Hell, we already kind of had that figured out. Why do you think we would be mad about that?"

    "Because of our dark history." Spira explained. "Princess Celestia and Luna died, Leo died, my mother had her life ruined! All so we could be the regents of this land! Don't you feel that we should be ashamed?!"

    "No." Vergil bluntly replied. "That's what those asshole gods did, not you. You're only giving them what they want if you blame yourself."

    "Those who are that wicked are not afraid to use detestable tactics such as emotional and moral manipulation." Trish spoke from personal experience with Akame. "It's part of their scheme to keep you under their control, to make you hate who you are…"

    "..." Spira gasped as she finally understood why her brother was the way he was.

    "I get it…" she thought as she flashed back to when she was confronting Nero in the hallway. "I really do feel I get it now. When I saw that Nero was having a mental breakdown over me calling him out on what he did after I essentially told him that I wanted him to be himself, I was so confused. I thought he was just stubborn and didn't want to listen to me. But no, he was just as confused as I was...his mind's been so ravaged by all the confusion of what "being good", "being evil", and "being himself" really means that he's losing his mind! How could I not have understood that?! In the state of mind he's in, there's no way he can be left alone with souls!"

    "Look," interjected Dante, "I respect that it's your business, not mine, if you want to be sorry for something you shouldn't have to apologize for. But let's stay on tangent, is there anything else you have to say? Anything else we need to know? We have no problems with you or your brother being Equestria's leaders and we respect you as our superiors, but if you aren't completely honest with us, we can't help you take down those gods."

    Spira's mind began to race and her heart pounded faster as she realized there was no way out of it. She would have to tell them the truth about Nero…

    "Alright then, I'll tell you." Spira conceded. "My brother is…"

    "Possessed by a demon!" the Pinkie Pie clone abruptly shouted to finish her sentence. "Worry not, however, there's no need to fear! For I am an exorcist!"

    Everyone turned to the Pinkie Pie clone with a bemused, blank look on their face and after a long pause, said…

    "...Really?"

    "You doubt my power?" the Pinkie clone replied. "Or is it that you just wouldn't trust me around your king? Nero and I go way back, believe it or not. I can still remember when he was just a young colt...his mother brought him to me to perform an exorcism on him to seal away the evil that was trying to take hold of him. And now that he's reached adulthood, that same evil has resurfaced...you've seen it, haven't you? The spiral…"

    Everyone else felt a chill down their spine as they remembered the spiral that was in the sky…

    "That's right…" the Pinkie clone continued. "That spiral is the mark of the seal I put on Nero when he was a child. I can tell, however, that it has weakened over time. Just like the dark king Nero embodies, the evil energy within him finds a way to escape through his eyes...the spiral represents infinity...that even in a realm where evil is continuously denied, it will continuously exist as an infinite loop that refuses to end until it opens the gateway to another world…"

    "ENOUGH!" Spira yelled. "You talk a big game, yet you give us no reason to put our trust in you! Just because you know so much about my brother doesn't mean you should be trusted to do anything with my brother! Nothing you say is going to stop me from telling them the truth!"

    "Well, since the truth is that it was those demented gods who made your brother the monster he is, fire away." the Pinkie clone jeered.

    "..." Spira fell silent as she felt the pressure from everyone around her, their eyes locked on her…

    "...No." she told herself. "I can't do it. I can't sell Nero out. I've never believed that he truly is a monster. I have to have faith in him. He only chose the dark path because of the devil who influenced him. No matter what happens, I must remember that he is not my enemy…"

    "That's correct." Spira relented. "Everything you've told us, I do believe. But can you prove yourself trustworthy?"

    "Absolutely!" the Pinkie clone exclaimed as she abruptly broke Vergil's spirit energy binds and untied the fashionably colored cloak around her head, to everyone's shock. A red magician's hat suddenly appeared on her head as she put on her cloak.

    "Wha...how…?" Vergil stuttered, flabbergasted.

    "You never had me trapped." the Pinkie clone taunted. "I never intended to kill Dante, although I could've easily overpowered him any time I wanted. I let you capture me because I wanted to see the way you would talk amongst yourselves if you thought you were running the show. I'm glad to know that I'm not going to have to force you to let me help…"

    "...Well, at least your power appears to be the real deal…" they responded as the Pinkie clone pulled a beaker filled with purple liquid out of her cloak.

    "You think?" the Pinkie clone retorted as she threw the beaker against the floor. Everyone was teleported back to the throne room of the castle in a puff of purple smoke, where King Nero was sitting on his throne...

    "What the fuck?!" he shouted before the smoke cleared and he saw Spira along with everyone else. "Oh, you guys are back. What, were you trying to put on a show for me?"

    "Not all of us, only I." the Pinkie clone interjected. "I am the one who intends to give you, my liege, the greatest show unearthed…"

    A skeptical Nero examined the Pinkie clone and got a strange vibe from her. However, it was not him, but another force inside him that burned with anger upon remembrance of her…

    "YOU!" the voice of Terra could be heard yelling from inside Nero. "YOU'RE THAT EXORCIST!"

    "M-Mom?!" Spira exclaimed.

    "EVERYONE, GET AWAY FROM THAT MAGICIAN!" the voice of Leo could now be heard yelling from inside Nero. "THAT'S NOT AN ORDINARY PINKIE PIE CLONE! THAT'S ONE OF RARITY AND DISCORD'S SUBORDINATES! HE'S THE ONE WHO DESTROYED OUR FAMILY!"

    "D-dammit!" the magician yelled. "This wasn't part of the plan! Nero was supposed to have digested your souls by now! Oh well, lesson learned. Never trust a failure of a demon!"

    Nero felt intense rage burn throughout him after everything he had heard, but decided not to respond…

    *SHING*

    ...with words, at least. Using the swiftest movement he had mastered, he propelled himself off of his throne and sliced the magician's head clean off with a foreleg he manifested into a blade of dark energy. As the magician's head flew and splattered against the wall, creating an odd, cakey substance when it suddenly exploded, Spira and the soldiers looked upon the king in shock.

    "Nero…" Spira said in astonishment, trembling. "Your power...is the source of your strength…?"

    "IT COMES FROM THE SOULS." Nero replied coldly, without hesitation. "I WILL NO LONGER FEEL ASHAMED ABOUT BEING WHAT I AM MEANT TO BE. I HAVE ACCEPTED THAT I AM A DEMON...AND I SHALL NOW FIGHT AS ONE!"

  10. Yeah, there's nothing to apologize for regarding making Valina and Cassidy a couple. I could see it was done for story purposes, not to try and "be hip". The only thing I saw wrong was Valina using Bruce to have a child when she could've just gotten a sperm donor, and she didn't seem to be proud of that either. I also really want to know now what's up with Colress. :D
