I know glass heart has been floated as the Suvi/Ame ship name but I do want to pitch heart’s secrets for the following reasons
Suvi’s part of the ship name starting with an S
the secrets being how in love they are with each other, maybe even secret from themselves but definitely going to be secret from each other for a long time like primo slow burn and we should honour that
“Wizards are defined by their secrets” was just such a raw line and they’re such a cool and defining part of the subclass
I just really love the concept of all of Suvi’s components in a ship name starting with S it’s about the ✨ magic ✨

Devlog #134
Hi-ho, Wudge here. Devlog day!
I've mostly (90%) finished writing, editing, and coding in the scene immediately following the Super Demo! It's missing one choice set and I haven't put in any sfx or music just yet, but the conditionals and variables are all set and all of the images are in place.
I have room to improve with one of the images though -
Tumblr media
It's so dark????? And I gotta add Jade and Dart, but--
I wanted to represent the MC thinking about the Love Interests, not that they suddenly teleported in. In the only outside example I can think of, shoujo anime, imagination/daydream scenes can be represented with pink bubbles and flowers, like so
Tumblr media
...but that's a bit excessive for the tone of Herotome.
The most straightforward solution would be to commission a CG to showcase the characters from a different angle, but it'd only be for a couple of lines!! Not cost-effective 😂
So uh, wish me luck coming up with a visual solution that isn't cloaking the characters in darkness...
Stay safe and keep warm,
Wudge.

I am literally checking your blog daily how the backflipping DUCK did I miss the recent snippet!?!?
It is genius. Bestest thing in the entire universe. I am filled with admiration for your skills. If I were home, I would be screaming into a pillow.
Just how do you make snippets this good?!?? Hahah♡ /pos
Backflipping duck got me, HAHA, thank you for that. Honestly, this entire chapter has been sitting solidly in "there's a lot of emotional fallout here from the previous installments of this series, and it is making me very paranoid about pulling both of them out of character," so I'm really glad people are enjoying the bits of WIP that I've been posting! Now that I've made it through a night out followed by an all-day party, I can sit, relax, and edit the shit out of it prior to posting so that I feel solid about it, hahaha. Anyway, thank you so much! <3 These kind messages have been fueling me amidst all the chaos, ehehe.
More replies specifically on the snippet under the cut! <3
okay I'm DYING over that snippet, alastor is going through a crisis not feeling comfortable with what they've been doing any longer and trying to figure out how to express that and one of the first things vox says when he breaches the topic is "I'm gonna dress up valentino as you and fantasize about fucking you anyway" like buddy!! all horny no brain asdfg they're both killing me omg - ✨
Vox was allowed like two seconds of healthy, genuine communication prior to the snippet I posted before I was like, "Hm, one sec, gotta remind everyone who he is," hahaha. He was, to be fair, mostly trying to be glib in that moment in a way that just didn't land.
Vox says "well it doesn't have to be literally you if you don't want" and Alastor hears "I've objectified the idea of you to such an extent that I'm going to go to such length to still realize my desire to fuck you" and oof.
Hi, anon who loves your writing snippets here 👋 Reaction summarized: “The Emotions They destroyed their cage Yes YES The Emotions are out” In other words: I am ready to be utterly obliterated. Hit me with the emotional weightlifting these two idiots are about to do. I’m rubbing my hands vigorously like a little creacher, a raccoon or common housefly, perhaps. On another note, so happy you’re getting off to a good start in your residency! As someone who’s been below the poverty line for most of their life, I know how thrilling it can be to look at future housing prospects. There’s nothing I love more than decorating a new space to make it feel like home :). I hope for the best for you these upcoming months!
Ehehehe, what a GREAT use of that poem. >:D The emotions really have finallly destroyed their cage. Time to face the music!!
And ahhh, thank you! Yeah, I've moved around a lot throughout my life (including switching houses weekly between my parents most of my life) and I feel like one of the ways I adapted to it was just being very gung-ho about decorating and home-ifying a place I'm staying, so I'm so excited to finally have a space that is All Mine To Do With As I Please without being concerned about roommates, etc, etc. And it won't be permanent, but I'll be there three years, and that's a decently long time!!

Day 5 - Child of Blessing
Let me try and set the scene, I did not watch TriStamp as it was airing, though it was on my radar since I kept seeing posts about it on here. It caught my attention, but I was already preoccupied with another show last winter, so I told myself "later." When I finally had a break over the summer, it was the first show I sat down with, then it became the fastest show I've binged (essentially in a night). I watched it first in sub, then again like a week later in dub because I could not stop thinking about it!
There are so many scenes, moments, reveals, etc. I could list off the top of my head that blew me away and left my jaw on the floor. But after that first watch, one episode, or rather, one scene kept coming back to mind: episode 5, "Child of Blessing" (specifically its ending)
Tumblr media
I wanted to share today the thoughts I wrote down not too long after my first watch as I figured out potentially why that scene stuck out to me so much. I wrote it stream of conscious, so please forgive the rambling and minimal editing. Anyways, hope you enjoy!
As I was (re)watching Trigun Stampede, looking back on it, there is one scene in particular that really stands out to me and leaves me with that lingering thought of “oh damn, this is so hauntingly beautiful.” The episodes discussing Vash and also Wolfwood’s past are just incredible, and I even saw one article argue that the first episode focused on Wolfwood’s past might have been the best episode of the winter ‘23 anime season, which I totally understand and would defend. However, interestingly, as I continuously (or perhaps religiously is the better term) listen to the Trigun Stampede soundtrack and have gone back a few times to rewatch this show, it’s the ending for episode 5 that really just makes me sit there and stare, thinking about all of it. Like I said above, there is something so hauntingly beautiful about after everything Vash and Wolfwood went through in that abandoned city (Windmill Village I believe is how it's referred to) and with Rollo, that as the group drives away, to suddenly see the windmills start turning, resulting in the power coming back on and theoretically life being brought back into that city, like it hit something inside of me that I can’t really define. Earlier in the episode, in flashbacks to Rollo as a child, he was deemed to be a blessed child or something to that effect in that he would be the next in line to be sacrificed to bring good fortune to their city. And thinking about that and Wolfwood’s “mercy” killing of Rollo, it’s like, no Rollo’s death/sacrifice did bring good fortune to the city. It’s just so sad that his death was prolonged by Dr. Conrad’s experiments and after everyone had left the town. The score in this scene too! Like, don’t talk to me, the reprise of one of the main melodies to just such a haunting and somewhat ominous tone. Plus, the fact that it’s called “Human Subject” on the album. I feel like I’m rambling (heck, I know I am), but just all the elements and the build up of that episode, it does something to stir my emotions! Just gotta sit for a moment and think about everything that happened.
youtube
Getting to sit and really rewatch these episodes each day as a part of @tristampparty, the argument? discussion? talk? between Vash and Wolfwood right before the end of the episode, with Vash asking Wolfwood why did he shoot and him replying "Mercy," is another standout moment for me. I wish I had more time to write about it (or could at least put it into words better), but I love how it explores the dichotomies in Vash and Wolfwood's thinking or ideology, which was set up in ep. 4 and explored in this one. Wolfwood's response, "Mercy," causes Vash to stop and think since I'd argue that directly contradicts the reason Vash wanted to keep Rollo alive.
Based on my interpretation, which feel free to disagree with, to spare Rollo from death, to finally fulfill his promise to Rollo that we saw in the flashbacks, saying how he would be there if Rollo ever needed help, to Vash, that is "mercy." The comfort of having someone who can see him for the person underneath all the machinery and experimentation and to not instantly run away in fear, this is Vash's perception of "mercy" in this situation. However, for Wolfwood, because he is just like Rollo, taken away from his childhood home to be experimented on, death and escaping the fate (and likely the pain) that was forced upon them is "mercy." Wolfwood's actions represent the first time someone in their group, or really who isn't labeled as an explicit foe/enemy, actually manages to upset Vash since Wolfwood broke the main tenant of Vash's philosophy.
.
.
.
Thank you for reading and coming to my rambling session! As I briefly mentioned above, there are a lot of episodes and moments that I cannot get over from TriStamp. And while I don't know if I would say ep. 5 is my favorite, I just wanted to give it some love and talk about its ending for today.

Back at it again? With more BNHA? My goodness!
See, in one my WIP, which haunts me like a cursed Victorian doll in the night, chanting to me my sins from beneath the floorboards, I got a few OCs. As ya do. Gotta flesh out that world building. And I am ALWAYS a ho for some sweet, sweet SI-OC action!
Because the stranger in a strange land, can see what SHOULD be mundane and familiar anew! There are Moral Quandries! You get to put your sticky lil gremlin fingers ALL over the set dressing and look inside those boxes they put in the background of the scenes! What's IN there? Secrets? We bet it's SECRETS.
Tis the BEST, really. I enjoy it.
But of course! If it's BNHA then we must assign Randomly Gifted Genetic Fuckry(tm) : The Super Powers Edition. Where in? My love of "immediately obvious powers are for cowards. There are no such things as weak powers, only weak and uncreative minds" comes into plaaaay~
I! Want! WEIRD QUIRKS!
Supposedly "minor" ones! That everyone says "oh that's a minor power. Sucks for you" and expects you to just leave it at that! Give up. Like you're some sort of fuckin CASUAL.
HA!
Nah, we pushing this fucker until REALITY breaks. You are gonna be legitimately asking "how the FUCK did you do that!?" And the answer is Will Power, Spite, and "Cause Fuck You, I'm Awesome".
Which of course, is how we got Kimiko. The most high femme, kawaii, little pastel pink bundle of Rage and Bloodlust the Heroics world has ever seen. She is that stage of little girl where they like to wear tiaras, princess dresses, and want to MURDER EVERYTHING. But never grew out of it.
She grew IN to it.
Got a lot of rage, that one. Probably because everyone is all "ooooh, kimi! Your Quirk is so CUTE! You'll be such a good housewife! Such a good sweets maker! Aren't you so CUTE! Let's all infantalize Kimi!" *murder intensifies*
She can turn part of what she is touching into Marshmallow.
*slaps a hand on your shoulder* There are NO restrictions on that~☆! ANYTHING she touchs. Is she touch you? Air? The ground? This building we are standing in? Wanna keep talkin shit? How do you feel about Marshmallow lungs? Enough training and eventually she can take out a building!
Cause Marshmallow? Not a very strong support. Ground under your high rise better be sturdy if you want it to hold, you know? Things to think about. Other things, are the "part of" aspect. Which she is slowly getting better at. Wanna see a trick? *a Marshmallow plops down on the table on the far side of the room* Still air! Still touching~.
Hope your technology is AIR TIGHT and not IN the air. Or moving through it at any concerning speeds. Like, say, a car. Fun thought! Don't fuck with her again! Kimi out! *removes threatening hand of possible Marshmallow Murder*
She's besties with the SI. Himiko. They are the Koko's and WILL be going to UA specifficaly because Kimi was told she couldn't make it. Himi wants nothing to do with this bullshit but is being dragged along like a cat in a harness.
She has my favorite super power. Egg.
Just... Egg.
Egg? Yes. She can summon eggs. Into the spoon. Like those challenge races. Except there is no race, its just her in her pjs trying to eat her damn breakfast. But SUPRISE! Raw egg. Full on, chicken egg in a shell, in your spoon. Perfectly balanced.
And in this iteration, it does have to be in a "spoon" or spoon-like shape. Defined as a bowl with a handle. The egg will fit the spoon. And? Most importantly! Not restricted to chicken eggs!!!
Tiny spoon? Tiny egg. Large spoon? Large egg.
Theoretically? Stadium sized spoon? Stadium sized egg of unknown species never to be seen on planet earth. Because YES. Those thought popping into your head. "Ha ha, what about a dodo eg-" Yeah, see, not ass funny when you actually DO that as a sleep deprived toddler because you HAVE TO KNOW. And now conservationists are hunting you for sport.
Do you have? ANY idea the lengths certain folks would go too to save endangered bird or frog species? If it comes out of an egg. Yes. She CAN make it. No risk of inbreeding for the already critically small populations. Just viable, healthy eggs. Ready to be incubated.
Took her an afternoon.
Needless to say... things get Exciting(tm). People need to be threatened. Himi gets lifelong job security at age four. Neat.
But!!! Not why I started writing! I had a THIRD OC child! Who never made it to the limelight! Gasp! I know! The secret comes out! I scrapped him in favor of Kimi. But his power was one I enjoy Pondering about!
Unlock. You can unlock doors. All doors.
No, you can't "unlock" the bonds between atoms or something. It has to be a Door. But! Begs the question, don't it? Would you... would you have "door sensing"? If there was a perfectly blended in or painted over door? Would you be able to say "it's right there"?
What happens if you use your ability on a tree? Doors are often made of wood. Would there be any effect? Even if no "opening" happened? Could you open metaphorical doors? If someone PAINTED a door, could you open a wall? If so, how deep? If we painted a cliff face, could you open a door to the other side of the mountain?
How far does you door opening power stretch?!
I understand you Izuku! I too, want to study these cool Quirks! See how far they can develop! No more strength quirks! More minor quirks with unusual applications! Woooo!

watching Leverage episode 1
if you saw a previous post of mine that started like this....no you didn't i meant to click edit not post y'all ( @0hheytherebigbadwolf & @shana-rosee ) have enticed me and i am very curious about this show. i thought i might as well live-blog my thoughts as i watch the show. today will be s1 ep1. general thoughts will be under the initial reactions spoilers, obviously
almost accidentally watched a different Leverage
i believe it was a reboot or an adaptation of this show?
anyway
not even 5 minutes in and it's not pulling any punches
oh my god that is tristan
WE ARE 3 MINUTES IN AND THE PLOT IS SPICY
"mr. ford, don't you want to screw over the insurance company that let your son die?" OH??? DO TELL
gotta say i love the editing so far of this show. going from the meeting between this ford dude and the guy who got his blueprints stolen to the Heist™️ just....*chef's kiss*
HE DID THAT FOR A BASEBALL CARD??? WHO IS ELLIOT
parker's dad said "be a better thief" and she went "aight bet" only respect for MY queen
"parker's insane," ford said. oh she can't be that bad-- *shows flashback of her childhood home exploding* ....ok i see his point, but like, her dad was a dick
you're telling me, that they accounted for everything and all was going well, but got caught because of the nba playoffs???
listen, i am already looking at this show with the ot3, so when elliot said "it's what i do" after saving alec from security detail, how can i not see alec's reaction as something other than "ok, so i might have a thing for him"
yes, yes the easier answer is alec is impressed by elliot's skills and is also impressed that elliot didn't just leave him to get caught, but i am a lady who likes to wear her rose-tinted glasses
"so this is plan b?" "technically this is plan g" sir...when did you switch to plan b???? was it when parker jumped off early??
omg the act the trio played as the left the building? oscar worthy, i would've been fooled
"did you have fun playing the black king instead of the white knight?" which one of those writers felt like a fucking king after writing that. i know someone chuckled in their little seat like 'now that's a banger line!'
we're only 15 minutes in and there's still more???
oh? the plot thickens!
ah, we're going with the explosion death fake-out i see
"he used my son" oh ho HO someone's going to die i see
oh...my god???? how he looks at sophie??? how she looks at him???? how they speak to each other???? it is only episode one wtf
i am in love with sophie. call me nathan because she's got me wrapped around her finger
elliot being the observant one to nathan's motivations??? yes
alec is me, that's it (not really but yes)
how??? were they able to do that meeting??? did they get actors to help with the con???
THE PLOT THICKENS MORE I SEE
YO?????? I AM BAMBOOZLED THEY WEREN'T ACTORS????
I LOVE AGENT HIGGINS! IS THERE MORE OF HIM PLEASE
their like little ducklings for nathan it's so sweet
"see you!"........."we actually missed working with you, we make a great team"
they used the black king white knight line again as a call back oh that writer felt so proud of it didn't they. "yeah, that line fucks. let's do it again" <- that's them
"we offer....leverage" roll fucking credits
General Thoughts:
WOW ok it is only one episode and i am invested. they give us great character dynamics, hints of backstory, hints of character dynamic backstory, hints of future plot points -> my cream and butter, my creme de la creme
this show hits all of my weak points. yeah, i can tell this was made early 2000s but that does nothing to hinder it. i am giggling, gasping, and sitting on the edge of my seat.
when mr. uppity shareholder man found out about his room being bugged, i was so worried because the plan was going so well and i really wanted to see this guy fall. AND THEN WHEN THE FBI CAME TO ARREST HIM??? HELLO????
but yes, very great pilot, i will watch episode 2

Aaaaaand of course my insane, AU-spawning brain had to go, “Hey, hey you know what would be fun? Temporary Ace Attorney & The Stanley Parable universe swap!” Like, Miles and Phoenix temporarily swap places with the Narrator and Stanley - our favorite lawyer boys are now stuck in the office as narrator (Edgeworth) and protagonist (Phoenix), and Stanley and the Narrator are over in the AA universe (confused, horribly confused, neither of them are in any way prepared for this).
I just really like the idea of Phoenix being pretty gung-ho about exploring the office, meanwhile Edgeworth is desperately sorting through the Narrator’s scripts and papers trying to figure out what’s going on and also keep Phoenix from winding up in any of the more... unpleasant endings.
“Hey, Edgeworth, I’m gonna see what the red button does!”
“Wright, DO NOT, if you do I have to blow up the whole facility with you in it!”
“...change of plans, I will not be pushing the button.”
Though, gotta admit... after everything he’s been through, I can’t help but feel that the Zending would pose an unusual problem for the two of them, just because I genuinely don’t think that would be enough to kill Phoenix. They get to it because Edgeworth doesn’t catch that it’s a bad ending until they’ve already been in the zen room for a good hour enjoying the light show, only for them to discover the only way out. That’s probably the point where Edgeworth starts figuring out how to control the office better and how to manually reset. (They both remember resets in this.)
Being the opinionated fanboy he is, I also think that Edgeworth would take one look at the Narrator’s scripts and reach for a red pen, then eventually decide that he and Phoenix can do better. They’re in the office for at least two weeks, and they make at least half a dozen new endings in this time.
(Also, I feel I should specify, Edgeworth and Phoenix aren’t really better writers than the Narrator, because neither of them have much experience with it, they just had a bunch of fun collabing on things they thought would make good endings to the scenario or which would just be fun to add to the office. Which is why there’s a broken broom handle in the broom closet now that you can use to play samurai with.)
Meanwhile Stanley and the Narrator are just... so confused, especially the Narrator. They’re also why this happened, it was supposed to be a special crossover event, what the heck-??? And, because they’re currently in AA, the two of them help solve at least one murder while they’re there, through a combination of the Narrator’s genre-savvyness and Stanley’s willingness to poke his nose absolutely anywhere he can get it.
Returning home is a relief to Phoenix and Edgeworth, a mild disappointment to Stanley, and an outrage to the Narrator because someone?!?? Has been editing his scripts!?!??? How dare?!????!??!?!?!!?! His scripts are brilliant, genius, his story has no flaws that need such base language (though keep in mind this is Edgeworth who was doing it, he wasn’t ‘base’ so much as ‘exactly as eloquent as the Narrator, but he was typical levels of Edgeworth-in-court mean and the Narrator is Extremely Offended(tm)’). Also, what are all these new endings??? The Climbing the Roof ending? The Cafeteria ending? The- good heavens, the Samurai ending??? What does that have to do with-? The Romantic Date ending-?!?!??!??!?
Stanley listened exactly long enough to hear that there are new endings and also he can apparently get to the roof, he is now a man with a bucket and a mission, he can listen to the Narrator’s hysterics later.

Boardroom Finally getting to the heart of this case! The station’s security system has been tampered with, and the intruder neutralizing weapons are on standby. It's time to use the A-mazing Deluxe A Button Beam to find out the truth behind the brainwashed Morolians!
Act. 1 Shooting The rhythm is pretty easy to follow and there’s none of those annoying, problematic back-to-back sets. If you’re aiming to recuse everyone in Report 4 in the shortest time possible, just make your ratings are at 88 ~ 89% when this Act. ends while playing in Extra Mode and you’ll be good, good, good!

Act. 2 Dance The BGM slows down for the 6th set, which can trip you up. If you treat as still having an 8 beat rhythm, you can hit the buttons on what would be the 1st, 3rd, and 5th beats. Two notes for Extra Mode: enter this Act. with the ratings below 89%, and you'll get to save the Channel 5 Security Robots; end this Act. with the ratings above 89%, and you’ll head to the Recording Studio..

Column: Mysterious Man Space Michael
The Incident 500 Years Ago Was Also a Game! Space Michael is a reporter for Space Channel 5. He's a very cool guy who's traveled freely throughout the eras with his special ability to transcend space and time. He's charmed and saved countless people with his unique dance moves. Back in the year 1990, or about 500 years ago, there was another great crisis that nearly ended the world. His dance moves saved the world back then too. That incident in 1990 was also made into a game that same year!
Inside Scoop Behind Michael Jackson's Cameo Michael Jackson loved the demo of "Space Channel 5" when the Sega staff showed him. So much in fact, that he said, "I want to be in this game!" That marked the origin of Space Michael being in the game. Since the game was already in its final stages of development, he would only have a small role in it, but he still readily agreed to it. The game left such a good impression, that he dubbed the lines, "Ho!" and, "Thank you Ulala," himself. Later on, he sent his autograph to SEGA 9 Labs with the comment "I love the game."

In this action game, Michael's spectacular dance moves are used to defeat the approaching enemies. When Michael takes a step, the enemy falls down after dancing, and the children are freed. Even Bubbles makes a brief appearance! Incidentally, there was also a movie with the same name.
p. 92
Control Room This is the part where you can free all the Morolians you’ve encountered during these past, amazing, reports. Best find a way to hold that controller comfortably, there’s a lot of buttons presses here and we don’t your fingers getting too tried, do we?
Act. 1 Dance It’s a bit dark, so it may be kinda hard to see the Morolians’ dance moves. But the sets are short, just listening to their voice should be enough. Most of the commands use the A button, so you really only need to focus on the timing. The back-to-back sets are pretty trick though, like a test of your rhythm skills.
Help Me! No. 64: Keyboard Gal >P. 113
p. 93
Act. 2 Shooting Making a mistake here won’t change a thing. By the 2nd set, the number of A button inputs needed will increase with each successive set. Sans the last set, the Morolians always appear on both sides of the screen, the timing for their inputs mirror each other too. Focus on how fast and many times you gotta press that A button! Count carefully and don’t over-press!

Column: Illustrated Guide for Those Aiming for 100%: Best Route & Rescue Points To unlock all the character profiles, you need to pay attention to the stages Ulala will go through, and which character will appear there. We recommend using this route guide for success. During the 6th route, make sure to adjust the ratings to about 85% before entering the 3rd round of reports. For the 7th, lower it down to 75% before proceeding to the 8th route. When nearing the end of 8th route, raise it back to 90% and prepare for the Recording Studio for the 9th route. If you can rescue all the different characters in these places, you should be at 100%. By the way, you can save the elusive men, women, and boys in large numbers in certain areas. The following is for your reference.

[Translator’s note: Men, Women, and Boys Frequently Appear Here! originally lists “Lobby 1F - Act. 1” and “Lobby 2F – Act. 2, Act. 3.” Act. 1 and Act. 3 of those respected areas do not align with the topic at hand so I assume these were errors and corrected them as such. It wouldn’t be the first time they listed the wrong Act. for a description. Sorry about the plain text formatting for this part.]

Recording Studio This area can instantly transform into various sets. The dark colors and bright lights make for an intense atmosphere that muddles the difference between Morolians and Earthlings while shooting! Time to lean in more than usual!
Act. 1 Shooting Assuming you’ve been batting a 1000 with rescuing all different kinds of Earthings, you just gotta save the two newscasters here. Regardless of any mistakes made, they will always show up during the final set. If the studio’s bright lights make it difficult to see the Morolians, be sure to listen closely to their voices!
Help Us! No. 35: Newscaster (Male) >P. 108 No. 36: Newscaster (Female) >P. 108
p. 95
Act. 2 Shooting Their distance paired with the dark stage makes it difficult to distinguish the Earthlings and the Morolians from each other. Luckily the Morolian’s ray guns shine bright against the darkness, so use the A button for those who glow and B for those who don’t. Make mistakes in the first two sets, the Channel 5 Staff will appear during the 3rd.
Help Us! No. 33: Channel 5 Receptionist >P. 107 No. 34: Channel 5 Staff >P. 108
Act. 3 Dance For the 9th set, you can feel that wait between the "↓" on the 2nd beat "↑" on the 4th beat. But it still may feel jarringly shorter compared to the Morolian’s dance. On the 10th set, don't miss inputting the "↓" after the long wait between the 2nd and 4th beats! With so many complicated combinations of directional inputs, be sure to refer to this page to make sure your combo is right!

Column: Ulala's Shocking Report!? If you fail the final shots at the end of Report 4, the antenna will fall apart and the show will be cancelled. Ulala's "nah" paired with her expression is rumored to be the most adorable thing ever. A must-see!
p. 96
Main Antenna VS Evila and Giant Evila Versus Evila and her band of Security Robots, a mirror-match dance battle to see who's funky dance groove is superior! Is defeat inevitable!? Not only that, but the director has been taken hostage!
Act. 1, Act. 2 For the latter half Act.1, the key to victory is getting down the timing of those "pauses." You should get in the habit of saying "unun unun" to the beat, especially for the 9th and 10th sets. Act.2 has tons of back-to-back inputs. Even so, don’t rush yourself, you might end up pressing the wrong buttons. There's half-beat "uns" that you have to get spot on too!
Evila Height: About the same as Ulala Weight: About the same as Ulala Special: Same dancing abilities as Ulala
A.K.A.: An artificial reporter, whose sole purpose for reporting is earning ratings. Created by Morolian tech and data collected by Blank.
p. 97
Giant Evila Height: 164.8 Morometers (Est.) Weight: 10,300 Morograms (Est.) Special: Missile attack
The second fake Ulala robot. The Morolians were allowed to create whatever they pleased. Blank controls it as if it were a giant robotic pet.
Act. 1, Act. 2, Act. 3, Act. 4 Here Ulala must copy the opposite of what is said. In other words, if Giant Evila says “left chu” you go “right chu.” In Act. 1, there are more hearts than sets here, so use that an opportunity to get used to her pattern. The patten is irregular, but the rhythm and commands themselves are pretty easy. By the 4th set in Act. 3, it get a little difficult to keep your rhythm as the BGM fades out. If you want, you can try humming to the commands to stay on beat. By the way, once the chorus starts you'll be able to put inputs for Ulala again as usual, no need to go with the chorus's rhythm. *The commands listed below show what is needed to be inputted by Ulala.
p. 98
VS Blank At last, Blank's true brainwashing signal robot reveals itself. When it transforms, it becomes a powerful foe, attacking Ulala with its quick, bold dance moves. It's time for all of us to join forces and shoot down the greatest evil in the galaxy!
Act. 1 Blank and Ulala's faces will appear on the monitors above, below, left, and right of Blank. If it’s Blank, press the A button to attack, and if it's Ulala press the B button for the rescue beam! The 11th set of The Blank Dimension is tricky. Stay calm and wait for those one and half beats!
p. 99
Act. 2 Last stage incoming! There's only a few inputs and the rhythm is easy, your real enemy here is the tension. Still, avoid tripping over your own feet here, you only have so many hearts to spare. Don't be overwhelmed by Blank TV's dynamic dance, carefully listen to his voice and fight back!
Blank TV Height: About 37 meters (monitor form) /About 58 meters (humanoid form) Weight: 8350 kilograms (monitor and humanoid form) Special: Brainwashing beam, Blank Dimension
Blank TV attacks with 60 times its normal power insides the mysterious "Blank Dimension" it creates. It can also transform between the monitor form and the more puppet-like form.    
Last Shooting! Earthlings who were forced to dance, reporters who were treated like tools, Morolians who were manipulated… All of their Dance Energy is gathering into the antenna! Just like the past final shots, press A powerfully three times, "Chu! Chu! Chu!" Let's finish this off with a bang!
Column: Blank's Last Stand Did you notice that once you defeat Blank TV, the last line he says is "I’ll be baaaack," but in the Extra Mode it's "You'll regret thiiiis"? Maybe Blank is hinting at even more extra stages existing after this! (A lie)
[Translator’s notes: Blank literally says “See you next week” in Japanese. “I’ll be back” is what he says in the English version. By the way, in Part 2, Purge says the same lines.]

Obsessed
[Arcane] Yandere! Jinx x Fem! Reader
Word count: 1.9k
Content Warnings: Small amount of cursing, implied violence, obsessive/toxic personality/relationship, stalking
[A/N]: This is my first time posting a story on this site, so please bear with me if the formatting is a little weird. I’ll try to edit it later to make it easier to read, lol.
Enjoy!
    Even though they were hundreds of feet above the water and bridge beneath them, that wasn't what was causing [Y/N]'s anxiety. She had been up here before, multiple times in fact, with her "friend" Jinx. They always came up here to relax and spend time together, just talking and sharing jokes or their favorite moments from their day. It had been so normal for so long, but recently Jinx had begun to make the conversation a little strange. They'd crack jokes with each other for a while, but then when they started talking about their day, Jinx would make an effort to ask about [Y/N]'s first. And when it was her turn to share, all she ever talked about was spending time with the [h/c] girl. In all honesty, it was making [Y/N] uncomfortable. Why was Jinx being so adamant about talking about her? She wasn't anything special. She was just a friend–a coworker–an assistant. Could she possibly be...? No, that was crazy. [Y/N] didn't even like her that way, why would she feel that way about her?
    And oh, how badly Jinx wanted to let her know that wasn't true. She had brought her up here to confess anyway, so she figured she could come clean about everything.
Well, not everything. Some things are better left unsaid.
    For example, she probably shouldn't tell her about how she stalked her over the past few months. Ever since she met the [h/c] girl–by total accident–she was hooked. In love. Obsessed. She just couldn't let her walk out of her life the way everyone else had done. So, in order to show her love before getting too serious (to not scare her off), she started sending gifts to [Y/N] and leaving little notes with words of pure affirmation. 'You may not know me personally quite yet, but I have to let you know that you're forever mine." "Since the day I met you, my life has never been the same." "You're my dream girl. Once we meet, you'll never be able to leave me." "I dream about you every night. I'm obsessed with you." Just short phrases that got her point across. Until one day, she sent a full letter.
    "Hey toots,
    I'd ask how you're doing today, but I already know. I've been keeping close tabs on you, but it's nothing weird, I promise. Just wanna make sure you're safe and aren't struggling. I'm sure by now you've noticed all the gifts landing on your doorstep. Some of them anyway. The blankets and stuff I left on your bed. Oh, and don't worry about how I got in. I promise I would never steal from you. I'll cut to the chase here. Silco is searching for new recruits, and I suggested you as my lab assistant! He said he's gotta meet you before he makes any big decisions or whatever, so you'd better get your cute little butt over here for an interview! Can't wait to see ya!
        -Jinx"
    [Y/N] didn't take up on her offer right away. After all, Jinx and Silco were known to be ruthless when it came to their employees. And, even though she hated living here in the undercity, she certainly didn't want to die for making a small mistake and accidentally upsetting them. Each day, Jinx came into Silco's office and asked if a certain [h/c] girl had come in for an interview, only to feel crushed when told that, no, no one had come in that matched her description. Enraged that [Y/N] hadn't listened to her, Jinx's stalking became more aggressive. Instead of only finding her in public places like The Last Drop, she followed her around almost everywhere she went. From the moment she left her house, [Y/N] had a very infatuated blue-haired girl trailing after her just a few meters behind.
    After a couple of days, Jinx even found herself watching through the window of [Y/N]'s house until she could see that she was asleep and safe. She knew what the girl was doing every day. What she ate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, what time she went to work, who she talked to, everything. She made a mental list of all the men and women who even remotely appeared to be flirting with her and made sure they'd never be able to interfere with her again. To her, everyone else was competition for [Y/N]'s love. Finally, after growing tired of this, Jinx sent her another note that simply said:
    "I won't ask again. You will be my partner. Show up at Silco's office and tell him I sent you, or you'll regret ignoring me."
    Once remembering exactly what Jinx was capable of, [Y/N] finally gave in and got herself an interview at Silco's office, afraid she might not have much longer to live if she didn't. Little did she know, a certain admirer of hers was watching from the platform on the ceiling. After a while of talking–and silent, pleading glares from Jinx–Silco agreed to give [Y/N] an opportunity to work for him. But only on the condition that she follow his every order–one of which was to obey Jinx when in the lab. Over the next few weeks, Jinx managed to grow closer to the girl, seemingly not realizing–possibly due to her delusions– that [Y/N] had absolutely no interest in being friends with her. She ignored the voices warning her to back off.
    After a while of working on countless projects together, Jinx finally managed to steel her nerves and send [Y/N] yet another letter. This time, she asked her to meet her in their usual spot, which is where they were now: standing on the scaffolding above the bridge in the city. It was near midnight. Jinx figured that with how late it was, there would be a very low chance of someone ruining the moment. Not that it would matter–she'd easily take care of it, though she'd feel slightly regretful for it. In the time she had gotten to know [Y/N], she had killed plenty of people who went against her or Silco's wishes. Some of which took place in front of the [h/c] girl. When she'd look back at [Y/N] to make sure she was okay, she could see the horror in her eyes. Oh, how she hated causing that look. She wanted her to be happy! Not scared!
    "[Y/N], I gotta be honest with you. You make me so damn happy. I know we barely met a few months ago, but you're my whole world, toots. I...I love you, and I wanna make you happy. You deserve everything you've ever wanted, and with how well Silco provides for me, I can assure you I'd make you the happiest girl in the world. You're just so beautiful and kind, and...you deserve someone who will protect you at all costs. Even though you might not believe it, I will do whatever I can to keep you safe." She pauses, sucking in a deep breath. "So whaddya say? Do you love me too?"
    [Y/N] stared in slight shock, not expecting this. She had told herself it was a possibility, but shut that thought down real quick. She didn't love her back. She couldn't–not after everything she had done. She blinked, meeting Jinx's gaze again, who was staring back expectantly. Jinx was hoping, praying, that her feelings would be reciprocated. Her head was tilted to the side, a faint blush dusting her cheeks and creeping up to her ears as she nervously chewed on her bottom lip. She was very fidgety. Her hands were twitching and fiddling with her loose strands of hair, occasionally popping her knuckles, her leg bouncing. It was visibly obvious that whatever [Y/N] said in reply would control her next move.
    [Y/N]'s mouth opened and shut a few times, unsure of what to say. She couldn't form the right words. How could she let her down easily? Should she even let her down? Would other people get hurt because of her decision? She internally sighed. She couldn't risk others getting hurt for her sake, even if she knew they were horrible people. If it meant no one would get hurt for her sake, [Y/N] was willing to sacrifice her freedom. She looked down at the bridge below. Trying to give herself a moment to put on a convincing act, she watched the small, colorful dots that were people. If she didn't pull off her act successfully, anyone down there could be Jinx's next victim.
    She finally looked back up at Jinx with a smile, which made the girl's eyes light up. "Of course I do, Jinx." Jinx smiled, but it quickly dropped after a moment of faltering. "Say it." Her tone was unusually cold towards her. [Y/N] raised an eyebrow, tilting her head. "What? Say what?" "Tell me you love me. I need to hear you say it to believe it." The [h/c] girl froze, a nervous bead of cold sweat forming on the back of her neck. "I-I..." As she struggled to "admit" her feelings, Jinx's gaze hardened, her brows furrowing tightly together. "Say it." [Y/N] swallowed the lump in her throat. 'Say it, or she'll kill you.' Forcing that smile again that didn't quite reach her eyes, [Y/N] grabbed Jinx's hand and gave it a soft squeeze. "I love you, Jinx."
    Jinx didn't say anything for a moment–didn't even have the slightest visible reaction. Her eyes flickered around the girl’s face in search of any sign of a lie. Finally, as if the words barely processed in her mind, a large grin broke out across her lips in an almost menacing manner. "Oh, sweets, you make me so happy." Without any warning, she cupped the [h/c] girl's face and closed the distance between them with a kiss that was a little too rough to be considered sincere. [Y/N] didn't even have a chance to react before Jinx leaned back and pulled her in by the waist for a tight hug. Her slender hand came up, long painted nails entangling themselves into the [h/c] locks she had ached to caress for months. "I love you so much, [Y/N]. You have no idea what I'd do for you." [Y/N] swallowed. She did know. She had seen it right before her eyes more than once. She knew that Jinx wouldn't hesitate to kill for her, even if she begged her not to.
    She was brought out of her thoughts as Jinx's hold on her waist tightened to a painful degree. "Why aren't you hugging me back?" Again, her tone was cold. [Y/N] jumped slightly and quickly returned her embrace. Jinx relaxed slightly in her hold, slowly beginning to sway the two of them side to side. Her nose buried itself into the crook of [Y/N]'s neck. She drew in a deep breath, seeming to take in the [h/c] girl's scent. Oh, that intoxicating scent of hers...so comforting. So...addicting.
    How she longed for this moment–this close contact. All those weeks of spending time with her and getting to know her interests and hobbies finally paid off. Here she was–holding her after finding that her feelings were mutual. This was the girl she wanted to spend the rest of her days with. She wanted to marry her and keep her happy until the day they died. And never again would Jinx tolerate anyone flirting with [Y/N]--not that she ever did. [Y/N] was hers.
Her heart fluttered at that thought. It repeated itself over and over again in her mind, drowning out the other voices swarming her brain and satisfying her obsessive tendencies. ‘She’s all mine. No one will ever take her from me. She won’t leave–she can’t. I won’t let her.’ Her smile grew. “You’re mine, toots. Don’t ever forget that.”

Me at Y/N after reading this: https://youtu.be/oHC1230OpOg
Jokes aside! Holy heck I loved this chapter so much!!!
The sweet touches and the KISS in the beginning!! YES Y/N YOU'RE DOING IT, I'M PROUD OF YOU!!! I gotta mention the blood from the kiss! I feel like I predicted that and I got SO HYPED when it happened! XD They didn't taste the blood, but it was spilled blood caused by a kiss so I'm counting it as a successful prediction from me jfjdtkdkejj
The scene in the truck! Oh yeeees!! I could see that whole scene play out so vividly in my head, it was so well written!! And the swift kill by Y/N and Moon briefly turning feral was so great! Their inner demon is showing and I LOVE IT!
Speaking of showing their inner demon! The boys are indeed being very bold, holding Y/N's hand with one of their bare demon claws! I loved that Y/N just murmured "you're cold" and didn't bother to look at them while half asleep. That's so 'Y/N' of you Y/N gkfjfjdj
Absolutely amazing chapter as always Naff!♥️♥️♥️♥️
youtube
ALSJDFLASFD Straight up calling Y/N out smh
Ahahha, thank you, babe! ♥
You did! I swear sometimes y'all are living in my walls lol but I do have to say, there's gonna be proper blood-tasting in the future for less romantic reasons hehe
Ahhhh, thank you! I had to edit that scene a few times to get it right but I'm really happy with how it turned out and I'm glad you enjoy it too ♥ Oh ho, the possessiveness and the desire to protect their heart may have gotten the best of Sun/Moon for a moment, but then they remembered themselves and all is well ♥
PFFFT I love that! 'That's so 'Y/N' of you Y/N' ahhh, ain't that the truth ♥
Thank you so much for reading! ♥ ♥ ♥

Finally-official-devlog #112
Also known as FOD112 hi-ho, Wudge here.
Gosh there's just. So much. I'm actually drafting this devlog a few days early so that I'm not suddenly overwhelmed on devlog Tuesday again. But without further ado-
Tumblr media
This is the big cheese right here -- each character has their own layer, each character's clothes and expressions have their own layers, and there's a separate layer for the soft orange lighting on top of it all. 😭
On that note, here's most of the individual image files that create the CG with their powers (and my code) combined:
Tumblr media
And since this is a cropped version of a BIGGER CG (featuring ALL the love interests sitting together), I had to tinker with the position code a great deal to properly feature these three goons Of course it was worth it of course twas merely at the cost of all my energy and sanity at the prospect of eventually possibly also adding in blinks and expression changes--
Mad props as usual to the sweetwonderfulamazing Remnantation who first completed this CG -checks watch- sometime last year! With some additional edits by me since then~
And, did you happen to notice something new in the lower right?
Tumblr media
Tadah... a brand new click-to-continue icon animation! I made (mostly) all by myself! The lil sparkle burst is free from production crate, but I drew the star and added the rotation code... ... Honestly, the hardest and most time-consuming part of this was finalizing the design. Originally I was gonna make it rotate 45 degrees, flip, rotate 45 more degrees, flip, etc-- and messed with that concept for several hours before scrapping it for a simpler, more graceful idea. :| Part of the process, I gots to tell myself, part of the process...
Tumblr media
Next up is Jade's powers, as you may have seen in the preview last week. Much like the CTC animation, I did a lot of research on other ideas - various glowing VFX like vertical veins across the cheeks and smoky rising from the eyes, as well as a bigger low opacity character zoom effect - before settling on something simple. Jade's power usage here is... pretty mild in context, and I figure I can always store the more dramatic animations for later in the story.
Here's a still of the effect btw:
Tumblr media
Her eyes look like headlights lmaooo. Honk honk!
Do I have more to update with? Believe it or not, yes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I made some icons, which took a fair amount of trial and error: on the left you'll see an earlier draft, on the right are my more final redesigns from the same day(...night. midnight. I worked on these until midnight).
I had to look up some guidelines because most of my previous icons did NOT look good or legible when sized down to 50x50 pixels. What I learned was, tadah, I had to draw with an unprecedented line width of 200 pixels! (For non-artists: I typically draw with a pen width of 12 pixels at most).
I also studied the icon styles of Persona 5, which saved me a lot of time - they had a cool stylistic choice of diagonally tilted color blocks and thick black outlines.
Here's yet another gif of icons in action...
Tumblr media
Did you see them? Did you?? For a split second, in the upper right.... Still gotta adjust some of the text overlap, don't look at that.
Oh and the "How to play" page is brand new. I coded it from scratch... That also took all night...
... Oh. Oh. And remember your MC's phone?
Tumblr media
This old thing? Yeah. Visual upgrade:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also rendered and colored in by Rem <3 Where would I be without them...!
The text, though, can be updated in code!!!! I spliced the phone into layers, with the screen on top and code-generated text just below it, so I can update the caller ID at any point in-game without making any new images.
Took a little while to get it to work... honestly it doesn't look 100% centered... but it's fine. This is fine...
And then... more code. After much tears, blood and strife, I got a musical crossfade to work. It shouldn't have been challenging but it was a nightmare -- when calling the crossfade the second track would either not play at all or its volume wouldn't change and I was starting to develop a preference for eating gravel. But I persisted, found a much simpler code that actually works. After the tearsbloodstrife.
And...... lastly... I simplified this big block of code:
vbox: pos (269, 76) add "sprites/MC/mc[mc_number].png" hbox: if mc_number ==1: text "DEFAULT" style "MC_label_text" elif mc_number ==2: text "LAVENDER" style "MC_label_text" elif mc_number ==3: text "PETUNIA" style "MC_label_text" elif mc_number ==4: text "SUNFLOWER" style "MC_label_text" else: text "TBD" style "MC_label_text"
...(not properly indented bc tumblr is mean 2 me)...
down to these lines, to make my future life easier:
default PrintMC = ["Default", "Lavender", "Petunia", "Sunflower", ""]
text PrintMC[mc_number] style "MC_label_text"
Two!!! lines!!!!!
🎊
Instead of typing out additional if/else lines, I only need to add new names to the PrintMC list. Won't really affect the player at all, but it's a HUGE quality of life update for me!
...Anyway that's it, thank you for checking in. <3
Stay safe and keep warm,
Wudge.
PS screw it I'm gonna queue post this early.
PPS have you listened to our composer's new single yet? No?!?!?!
youtube
Every click, every listen helps, and every song of his is a BOP that deserves recognition!
ok that's all for real now xoxoxo,
wudge (again)

R&J Clown Takes Special Edition—TV Tropes Still Exists Part 2
A bit more entertaining this time, though. TV Tropes has indeed been improving, if only slightly. But clownery is still clownery, and it must be eaten, and by me! So hie ho, here we go
Meta Fanfiction
Tumblr media
2006-era Albus Dumbledore HP meta was a mistake. I have a whole Friar meta to prove it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cool fanfic, bruh.
No, seriously, this was entertaining, even (dare I say it?) reasonable enough…except that Shakespeare literally wrote none of this.
He gave no indication that R&J’s deaths were the result of their guilt or loss or even honor-based motives. The only possible indication would be Romeo asking Tybalt for forgiveness, but there is nothing in the text that suggests that he is punishing himself for Tybalt’s death by dying, only that he regrets killing him. All in all, it’s just one loose end to tie up, as Romeo did regret killing Tybalt.
As for Juliet, Shakespeare gave Juliet (1) choice—the Friar plans for Juliet to go to convent after Romeo’s death and begs her to come with him. Juliet rejects this implicitly and explicitly (~“Go, for I will not away!”). So if she was worried about how to explain to her parents that she’s alive, that problem already had a solution re: the Friar.
Either way, it’s clear by the language of their suicides their suicides were not honor-killings like Brutus’, Othello’s, and even Horatio’s suicide attempt. R&J do not talk about death, though their diction is colored by it. They are completely focused on each other.
Tumblr media
…Not so cool fanfic, bruh.
Shakespeare’s R&J is an adaptation of Arthur Brooke’s narrative poem The Tragicall Historie of Romeus and Juliet. This is literally documented fact, not theory. Shakespeare also consulted other sources, but the plot and characters are pure Brooke’s.
I have read the poem multiple times and done a review series of it, but even in that mess of a poem Romeus/Juliet is the main and only canon ship. The only difference is that Brooke!Romeus/Juliet is based on youthful lust and their tragic end is explicitly framed as a “They Had It Coming For Disobeying Their Parents” Aesop. Shakespeare yeeted this morality framing so hard out the window it reached space and was sucked into the moon’s orbit. Legend says it’s still orbiting there, along with all of Shakespeare’s last remaining fucks.
As for Mercutio, Brooke!Mercutio is a random courtier who flirted with Juliet at the ball and held her hand, but Juliet preferred Romeus, whose hand was warmer (not even joking, the poem explicitly calls out Brooke!Mercutio’s cold hands). After that Brooke!Mercutio completely disappears from the poem. He was never an actual character, let alone the main one.
Tumblr media
The Romercutio shippers have arrived!!! And shamelessly trying to frame Romeo’s “The love I bear thee” thing to Tybalt as actual romantic love, lol.
Friendly reminder that in Shakespeare’s time “love” can be used for platonic situations. In some contexts it can even mean “honor” and “duty”—as in, the ~love a servant is supposed to show his master. Yes, the Elizabethans weaponized “love” to uphold the status quo in the same way we modern people have weaponized “respect.”
Tumblr media
And yet they are supposedly Bromantic Foils per the page. TV Tropes still gotta TV-Trope.
(But at least someone did notice that discrepency, lol. I was about to make a whole meta on why that’s so.)
Tumblr media
…Okay, this is creative, I’ll give you that.
Mercutio did not know Romeo was in love with Juliet. The most he would have been aware of Juliet’s existence if he kept up with news of his cousin Paris’ attempts to court her. He did not love anybody in the play, which is why most shippers are so hungry to pair him up with literally anyone.
Illegal Marriage!!!!
Tumblr media
Le sigh.
So I’m not an expert on marriage laws at the time, BUT I’m 99.999% sure that the age of consent for marriage was way lower than 21–remember the nobles and their alliances! 21-23 were the median ages to get married, though.
Also, from I understand the Elizabethan audience would have completely understood this play was set in a time when Catholic marriage was a thing (troth plight where the couple pledges to marry without a friar). After all, a good chunk of Elizabethan society was still Catholic—loyal to the Queen, of course, but much of the rites had been kept even in the official new Protestant church.
If anything, Romeo and Juliet followed the new Protestant ethic of being married in church by Friar. If they consummated their union, parental approval or not, they were married. Nothing their parents could do. And Juliet at that point was not betrothed to Paris.
One Based Reply
Tumblr media
Arthur Brooke: Their youthful lust led to their ignominious doom!!!1!1!!
Shakespeare: It’s a popular alternative character interpretation but not canon
Arthur Brooke:
Shakespeare: My canon, that is 😎

Connor Lacey's Super Adventures of Scooby-Doo! And KISS Rock and Roll Mystery/Transcript
EDIT
This is the Transcript for Connor Lacey's​ Super Adventures of Scooby-doo! And KISS Rock and Roll Mystery
(Evil laughter)
(Worker 2 screaming)
Worker 1: Good, man. Give me another one.
(Continues screaming)
Worker 2: How long do we have to keep doing this? My voice is getting hoarse.
Worker 1: Look, somebody's gotta fix this camera. How else are those kids gonna get a picture of themselves screaming their heads off?
Worker 2: Ha-ha-ha. Scaredy cats. Funny. What seems to be the trouble?
Worker 1: I don't know. Every photo has some weird red haze in it. But I'm pretty sure I just fixed it. You smell rotten eggs?
(Worker 2 exclaims)
(Stuttering)
Worker 1: What? Water buffalo?
(Worker 2 continues stuttering)
Worker 1: Water slide? What is it?
Worker 2: Witch!
Worker 1: Aah!
The Crimson Witch: Give me rock! Give me rock! Give me rock!
Worker 1: Man, I think we lost her.
The Crimson Witch: Give me rock!
Worker 2: Whoa!
Worker 1: Get out of my way.
Worker 2: There's a...
Worker 1: We saw a...
Worker 2: We saw a...
Worker 1: There's a...
Both: Witch!
Manny Goldman: Big deal. A witch, a witch. Pipe down already. You're giving me a headache. Stop getting so excited.
Worker 2: But we saw her. She had this grotesque head.
Worker 1: It was so frightening.
Manny Goldman: Well, welcome to KISS World. That's the whole point of this park, isn't it? To excite and fright. Now, get back to work. By the way, don't forget your souvenir photo. She's back. Only one thing we can do. Get me the hottest mystery solvers in the world.
Connor Lacey: Looks like the Scooby gang are heading to KISS World to see KISS's Halloween concert.
Hoopa: Guess we better go with them. Right Connor?
Connor Lacey: Right Hoopa.
Chris Kratt: Hang on! What about the Rainbooms?
Rainbow Dash (EG): Here we are.
Connor Lacey: Then let's go.
Shaggy: Like, I can't believe we get to go to KISS World. Ha-ha.
Velma: And solve a mystery. That's like killing two birds with one stone.
Scooby-doo: Yeah. Or two birds with one cat.
Velma: Personally, I find their sideshow act a little juvenile. But my mother told me to take a more active role in my friends' interests.
Daphne: Well, I'm pretty interested in Starchild. He's so dreamy. Hey.
Fred: Sorry, everyone.
Daphne: You did that on purpose.
Shaggy: Heh. Now it looks like a shooting star. Make a wish, Scoob.
Scooby-doo: I wish I was eating a Scooby Snack.
Shaggy: Good one, dude. I wish I could breathe fire like the Demon. Aah!
Fred: I wish you'd all come to your senses. You don't see me acting ridiculous over my favorite group, the Ascot Five, do you?
The Ascot Five: Don't tug my ascot Don't pull my ascot It's not a scarf You can't have my ascot 'Cause, girl, it's mine
Daphne: Fred, please.
Fred: I'm just saying, I think they're twice the band KISS is.
Shaggy: But do the Ascot Five have an awesome amusement park?
Scooby-doo: Yeah. Awesome amusement park.
Optimus Prime (G1): We're here.
Daphne: It is so majorly groovy to be at KISS World on Halloween night.
Shaggy: Listen to those crowds.
Daphne: I'm so excited. I think I'm gonna freak out.
Velma: Apparently you're not the only one.
Shaggy: Like, dude, don't most people usually run towards awesome rock concerts?
Fred: Not at an Ascot Five concert. Everyone walks in a calm, orderly fashion.
Man 1: Help!
Man 2: Witch!
Man 1: My gosh, she's so terrifying.
Man 1: The scariest witch ever.
Shaggy: Witch?
Man 1: With the red mist.
Man 2: And the creepy laugh.
Man 1: Save yourself while you can.
Shaggy: Wait a minute. The Demon, the Starchild, the Catman, the Spaceman. Ho-ho-ho. Please tell me they added a witch.
Velma: Somehow I doubt that. In fact, it's probably the reason we're here.
Scooby-doo: Not me. I'm here for the funnel cake.
Fred: Come on, gang, let's get to work.
Shaggy: Like, excuse me, ma'am.
Delilah: Sorry. Park's closed.
Fred: But we're here to solve a mystery.
Delilah: Sure you are. You always wear makeup when solving crimes?
Daphne: Heh. I should hope so.
Velma: She means the KISS makeup. No, we're just excited about the concert tonight. But we're the mystery solvers you called for.
Delilah: I am Delilah Domino, chief of security. Why would I call mystery solvers?
Fred: What? But Daphne took the call. Right, Daph?
Daphne: Well...
Velma: Daphne?
Daphne: Okay. The thing is, no one actually called for our help.
All: What?
Daphne: But when I heard KISS was throwing a special Halloween concert, I just had to come. I mean, look at that poster of Starchild. He stares at me wherever I go.
Shaggy: So does the Mona Lisa, but you don't see us on a plane to Italy.
Velma: Why didn't you just tell us the truth? We all would've come.
Fred: Not me.
Daphne: Exactly. But once we got here, I knew we'd all have a good time. The odds were pretty good there'd be a mystery for us to solve. I mean, we're the Scooby gang, and it's an amusement park. Heh. Right?
Delilah: Wrong. It's a closed amusement park. And chances are, there won't be any Halloween concert either. So go home.
Shaggy: But we've come so far. Heh. Couldn't we at least have some snacks for the road? Maybe some rocky road?
Delilah: Out.
Connor Lacey: Let me handle this. I'm Connor Lacey and you had better watch who you're talking to.
Delilah: Wait a minute. Connor Lacey? That rings a bell! Are you the same Connor Lacey who stopped the Kraang invasion with the help of his team!?
Connor Lacey: The one and only.
Delilah: My lord. My apologies for my rudeness. If you're all friends of Connor Lacey then come and investigate the park. But please be careful.
Twilight Sparkle: Nice job Connor.
Jeremy: She has heard of you? Wow Connor you're a real celebrity.
Connor Lacey: And that includes all of you.
Optimus Prime (G1): Daphne,Velma,Shaggy and Scooby you better take off your KISS costumes. We'll meet you inside.
Velma: All right, time to get serious. It seems KISS needs our help.
Shaggy: Like, I'm no guitarist, but I can play a mean armpit.
Daphne: Not to play music, Shaggy, to solve the mystery.
Fred: Well, then it looks like we'll have to get in.
Daphne: You're okay with this?
Fred: Of course I am. It's a mystery, right? And solving mysteries is what we do.
Scooby-doo: We're done.
Connor Lacey: Okay. Let's go.
Delilah: Caught some kids trying to stay in the park, Mr. Goldman, but I noticed that one of them is Connor Lacey.
Manny Goldman: Connor huh? Yeah I heard of him. He's supposed to be a tough little guy. That is you believe in his reputation.
Delilah: Oh I believe he's for real.
Manny Goldman: I can't believe we're chasing customers away.
Delilah: I know, but we went over this. Until we solve this witch mystery, it's safer to keep everyone out.
Manny Goldman: Now, don't get crazy, Delilah. Just stay calm because I'm gonna be very honest with you. I called for some backup.
Delilah: Backup? You must be kidding. Mr. Goldman, I am the chief of security. I think I can take care of this unusual situation.
Manny Goldman: Time is not on our side. The witch has scared away too many people. Tonight's Halloween concert is our only chance to bring them back.
Velma: Did you hear that?
Daphne: We got here just in time.
Fred: Come on. Let's check out the supervisor's office.
Shaggy: Hey, Scoob, bet I can beat you in a water-gun shootout.
Scooby-doo: Yeah? You're on.
Manny Goldman: Chip, you don't understand. If KISS doesn't perform tonight, I will lose the park.
Chip McGhoo: That's not my concern, Manny. All I care about are the concert tours. Every one of these cities translates into dollar signs. You know what happens if I lose these cities?
Manny Goldman: You have more time to take your kids to KISS World.
Chip McGhoo: No, it means I lose money. Every time KISS comes back into the park, it means they're not on the road performing... ...and I'm not selling their merchandise. So forgive me, but as far as I'm concerned, this park can wind up in a toilet. Preferably this KISS toilet. Because I don't know how I'm gonna unload this thing.
Shaggy: Looks like Spaceman is spaced out. Ha-ha. Onto Starchild. Heh.
Scooby-doo: One Catman down and one Demon to go.
Shaggy: Run for it! Run!
Fred: Shaggy, Scooby, Wait!
Delilah: You. I thought I told you kids to be careful.
Manny Goldman: Hey, hey, hey. Whoa! Whoa!
Shaggy: Sorry.
Manny Goldman: Calm down. I'm Manny Goldman, the park supervisor. What's with all the ruckus?
Delilah: It's these nosy kids again. Fortunately, I used to work for a government defense company... ...so I know how to take down intruders.
Shaggy: Like, she's not kidding.
Velma: Sorry, everyone. We're just trying to help.
Daphne: We overheard that the park is in trouble. And seeing how we're such big KISS fans, we'd like to do all that we can.
Delilah: We've got it under control. Thank you very much.
Fred: But don't you want the crowds to come back to the park?
Starchild: They'll come back. To see us.
Gene Simmons: You show us everything you've got You keep on dancing and the room gets hot You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy And you say you wanna go for a spin The party's just begun, we'll let you in You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
KISS: You keep on shouting You keep on shouting I wanna rock 'n' roll all night And party every day I wanna rock 'n' roll all night And party every day I wanna rock 'n' roll all night And party every day I wanna rock 'n' roll all night And party every day
Gene Simmons: You keep saying you'll be mine for a while You're looking fancy and I like your style You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy And you show us everything you've got Baby, baby, it's quite a lot You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
KISS: You keep on shouting You keep on shouting I wanna rock 'n' roll all night And party every day I wanna rock 'n' roll all night And party every day I wanna rock 'n' roll all night And party every day I wanna rock 'n' roll all night And party every day
Chip McGhoo: Come on, guys, these special effects cost money. I told you, you can't use them every time you make an entrance.
Shaggy: Like, wow, ha-ha-ha, it's KISS.
Scooby-doo: In person.
Daphne: And in the flesh.
Fred: "In the flesh" is the same as "in person." Basically, you have just said the same thing twice.
Pinkie Pie (EG): Potato Tomato.
Starchild: How can we help, little lady?
Velma: Actually we're here to help you. We're mystery solvers.
Spaceman: That's funny. So are we.
Velma: Wait. You're the ones they called for help?
Demon: Yeah. They wanted the best, they got the best.
Shaggy: But, like, you're a rock band. Every band needs a hobby.
Fred: The Ascot Five would welcome our help.
Demon: Well, I guess we're no Ascot Five, so scram.
Fred: Yeah? Well, amusement-park mysteries happen to be our specialty. We solved the "Foul Play in Funland" case, stopped the Roller Ghoster in his tracks... ...and captured the monster of Our Lady of Mercy's parking lot. I guess that was more of a street fair.
Connor Lacey: And me and my team helped them. I should know we were there.
Spaceman: That's cute, but we solve mysteries on a cosmic level. What does that mean? It means we don't need your help.
Starchild: Now, hold on, guys. Let's not be hasty.
Catman: What?
Spaceman: Really?
Demon: Not again.
Starchild: You know how the eye sees everything. Well, I just caught a glimpse of the future.
Demon: Yeah, and I bet the future is a redhead.
Starchild: Ha-ha. You bet. I mean, in a way. Don't ask me how or why... ...but I think we're going to need these kids to catch that witch.
Spaceman: You're kidding. They're just humans.
Catman: Not even all of them.
Starchild: I know, but the eye never lies.
Spaceman: I guess they're okay.
Catman: If you think so, Starchild.
Demon: I do not like this.
Starchild: On second thought, we've decided you can help.
Daphne: That's great. I guess the first question is: Who is this witch everyone's talking about?
Crimson Witch: Give me rock!
Demon: Obviously you've done this before.
Delilah: Get out of my locker!
Shaggy: But it's so cozy.
Crimson Witch: Give me rock!
Fred: It's like she's searching for something.
Daphne: And I'm going to guess that something is a rock.
Velma: Do you think you could show us around the park? I'd like to see the places where the witch has been.
Starchild: No problem. Right, fellas?
Demon: Count me out. The Demon needs to feed the beast.
Shaggy: Did he say, "beast"?
Connor Lacey: Don't worry Shaggy.
Starchild: He means his stomach.
Shaggy: Heh-heh. Then my beast is growling too. How about yours, bud?
Scooby-doo: Heh. My beast is starving.
Shaggy: Like, catch you later. It's beast-feeding time.
Ash Ketchum: Good luck boys.
Daphne: I'm ready for that tour now.
Fred: Heh-heh. If by "tour," you mean "begin the investigation."
Starchild: Let's hit it, fellow mystery solvers.
Catman: I guess I'll see you out there.
Chip McGhoo: Guys, these special effects cost money.
Shaggy: Just think, Scooby-Doo, a million fast-food stands just for us. It's like carbohydrate heaven. The Demon.
Demon: Nice and toasty.
Shaggy:Like, wow, I wonder how he does that. Man, if we could breathe fire, we could pop our own popcorn.
Scooby-doo: Yeah.
Shaggy: Come on, we gotta get past him. Dude, you sure you know where you're going?
Scooby-doo: Yeah. Cheeseburgers straight ahead.
Shaggy: Yoinks! Like, sorry, Mr. Demon. Scooby didn't mean it. He was afraid of your dragon boot. I don't suppose you could wear an open-toed demon sandal?
Scooby-doo: That was close.
Shaggy: Could've been worse. We could've been on the menu. Heh-heh. Come on, Scooby-Doo. If we can't eat, at least we can go on some rides, ha-ha-ha, right?
Scooby-doo: Right.
Pinkie Pie: This is amazing.
Daphne: I have to say, this is some amusement park.
Starchild: Thanks. We each took a section and designed it ourselves.
Demon: There's my Brimstone Barbeque, the hottest ride in the park.
Shaggy: Like, that was well done.
Scooby-doo: Yeah, and so are we.
Spaceman: And my Electric Alley.
Shaggy: This ride gets my volt.
Scooby-doo: It's shocking.
Catman: Don't forget my Whirling Wildcats.
Starchild: And my Dynasty Star Ferris Wheel. Whoo!
Chip McGhoo: A great place to view with KISS binoculars, only $24.99.
Connor Lacey: So don't KISS this deal goodbye. Ha. Get it?
Rainbow Dash: Good one Connor.
Velma: What's that ride?
Demon: That's our most wicked ride of all... ...the Destroyer.
Catman: But it's closed to the public.
Darth Vader: What happened to it?
Tai: Yeah, what?
Spaceman: The Crimson Witch scared a couple of repairmen on it tonight.
Daphne: It looks pretty terrifying.
Starlight Glimmer: You said it Daphne.
Starchild: Not if you were with me, darling.
Fred: Brother.
Velma: Fred.
Fred: I'm sorry, Velma, but I can't compete with Starchild.
Velma: You don't need to. Remember, underneath all that makeup is just a regular guy... ...who puts his pants on like everyone else.
Starchild: KISS costume change, activate.
Brock: I didn't know they can do that.
Yugi Moto: Neither do I.
Fred: Come on.
Velma: Relax, Fred. I think this was all pre-planned.
Shandi: You're right. It was a dress rehearsal for tonight's show. Good test run, fellas.
Demon: This isn't getting us anywhere. We need to be doing our own investigation.
Starchild: All right, Demon, I hear you. Hey, guys, we're gonna take a break.
Fluttershy: Who are you?
Shandi Hi, I'm Shandi Strutter. KISS'S head techie.
Velma: Hi, I'm Velma, and this is Fred and Daphne.

Shandi: Nice to meet you.
Velma: So you're responsible for the band's stage effects?
Shandi Most of them, yeah. The guys like to put on a show.
Daphne: You don't have to tell me. Heh-heh.
Fred: Daphne's a fan.
Twilight Sparkle: That's right.
Rainbow Dash: A really big fan.
Daphne: Um, KISS doesn't have fans, Freddie. They're called the KISS Army.
Fred: I prefer the Ascot Five, myself.
Shandi: Do they have an army?
Fred: It's more of an all-volunteer... ...international organization of enthusiastic youths.
Shandi: Cool.
Daphne: As in lame.
Connor Lacey: I better check on Shaggy and Scooby. They must've been having a good time by now.
Shaggy: Good deal finding that ice cream stand, Scoob. We'll have this case licked in no time. Ha-ha-ha.
Scooby-doo: Yeah. Licked.
Shaggy: Dude, maybe we should investigate the Rockin' Flume.
Connor Lacey: Mind if I investigate the Rockin' Flume with you and Scooby, Shaggy?
Shaggy: Sure Connor. "Your tongue must be this long to ride this ride." Hey! Looks like your tongue's long enough to get us both on this ride. Heh-heh. It's like the perfect park day. No lines, no operators. Aah! Pyew. Like, what died in here?
Crimson Witch: Give me rock!
Connor Lacey: (Hits Ultimatrix)
Robo Thundersaurus: Robo Thundersaurus! Let's go! On the boat! Hey, I know this song.
Paul Stanley: Well the night's begun and you want some fun Do you think you're gonna find it (find it) You got to treat yourself like number one Do you need to be reminded (need to be reminded)
Gene Simmons: It doesn't matter what you do or say Just forget the things that you've been told We can't do it any other way Everybody's got to rock n roll yay
KISS: Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Paul Stanley: If you don't feel good every way you could Don't sit there broken hearted (sit there broken hearted) Call all your friends in the neighborhood And get the party started(get the party started)
Gene Simmons: Don't let them tell you that there's too much noise They're too old to really understand You'll still get rowdy with the girls and boys 'Cause it's time for you to take a stand yay
KISS: Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Gene Simmons: You got to have a party
KISS: Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Paul Stanley: Turn it up louder
KISS: Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Paul Stanley: And everybody shout it now
KISS: Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Paul Stanley: I hear you gettin' louder
KISS: Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Paul Stanley: Everybody shout it now
KISS: Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shaggy: Scoob, look, it's KISS!
Robo Thundersaurus: And there's the villains!
Scooby-Doo: Whoa! KISS is super buff.
Robo Thundersaurus: I'll help KISS!
Crimson Witch: You'll never stop us.
Fred: We heard the commotion. Are you guys okay?
Connor Lacey: We're fine.
Shaggy: Hey, man, heh-heh... ...did anyone catch the license plate number on that witch?
Hoopa: Shaggy and Scooby fainted.
Daphne: Poor Scooby and Shaggy. They're still out.
Chip McGhoo: Pardon me, Chip McGhoo, KISS road manager, executive officer of merchandise. These KISS smelling salts work twice as fast and they're only $15.95.
Connor Lacey: And it's KISS-counted just for you. Get it?
Chazz Princeton: Hey! Watch it with KISS puns. Pretty soon you'll used them up and they'll get cornier and cornier.
Daphne: They're still not coming around.
Chip McGhoo: Sorry. No refunds.
Fred: I think I might have the solution. Try this churro I grabbed from the concession stand.
Both: Aah!
Shaggy: Hey, man.
Scooby-doo: Hi, Shaggy.
Daphne: How do you feel?
Shaggy: I feel like a couple more churros. How about you, Scooby-Doo?
Scooby-doo: Yeah. And doughnuts too.
Chip McGhoo: How about some KISS Kakes? Now with Spaceman sprinkles.
Fred: What happened?
Shaggy: Well, first we got some ice cream... ...which Scooby-Doo licked away from me.
Scooby-doo: Yummy, yummy, yummy.
Shaggy: Then there was this smell and the stinky witch... ...and all this running and music and spinning and then... And then... Like, they saved us. KISS and their super powers.
Scooby-doo: That's right, KISS has super powers.
Connor Lacey and Pals: Wow!
Velma: Sounds like they spun around one two many times in those drums.
Shaggy: No. Like, he shot eye beams, he grew claws... ...he did lightning bolts, and he flew in and blew the biggest fire ever.
Scooby-doo: Thank you, Mr. Demon.
Demon: Beat it, mutt, before you dent my armor.
Scooby-doo: Yes, sir. Of course, sir.
Velma: Shaggy, you're imagining things.
Fred: He didn't imagine the witch, that's for sure.
Daphne: What should we do now?
Chikara: You must leave! Trust me, KISS, these children are nothing but trouble. You think they're allies, but in the end... ...the only person they'll help is the Crimson Witch... ...in her plans to bring total devastation to this world. They must go now or all is lost.
Fred: Guys, you've gotta stop doing this.
Chikara: If you wanna speak further, you know where to find me.
Daphne: Who was that?
Starchild: Chikara, the psychic.
Catman: She works at the park.
Spaceman: She tells people's fortunes.
Velma: Well, she smells like a mixture of patchouli and hobo.
Starchild: She's actually very wise. Maybe someone should talk to her.
Spaceman: I'll go. Mind if I tag along? I find it odd that she thinks she knows so much about the witch.
Daphne: Some of us should go back to the drum ride and try to pick up the witch's trail.
Starchild: I'll go with you, if you want.
Daphne: I want.
Fred: I'll go too.
Connor Lacey: We'll go as well.
Starchild: Demon, Catman, keep an eye on Scooby and Shaggy.
Demon: I got better things to do than babysit dogs and hippies. Hey, have fun.
Chip McGhoo: These confetti bombs just aren't getting any cheaper.
Fred:: There. I got some residue from the witch's mist.
Daphne: Heh, that's nice, Fred. Say, could you take a picture of me and Starchild looking for clues?
Akiza: Go ahead Fred.
Fred: Is this really necessary?
Daphne: He's a rock star, Fred. A rock star. Just do it.
Fred: All right.
Connor Lacey: He's only asking.
Daphne: And a couple more for safety. Thank you so much.
Starchild: My pleasure.
Daphne: Let me see. Let me see. Let me see. Fred. Your thumb was in the way. On all of them.
Fred: Gosh. Heh. I'm sorry.
Daphne: Are you doing this on purpose?
Fred: No. I just don't see what the big deal is. We've solved over a thousand mysteries together... ...and you've never once asked to have a picture taken with me.
Starchild: No worries. I got one of the both of you. In vibrant, colorful acrylic.
Daphne: You just painted our portrait?
Starchild: Sure.
Daphne: Just now?
Starchild: No big deal. Just something I do in my spare time. Oops. Well, look, my thumb got in the way.
Fred: But you painted it.
Starchild: Luckily I did a couple more for safety.
Daphne: Aah! It's beautiful.
Tea: I agree with you Daphne.
Joey Wheeler: (Laughs) He made you look like a fool Fred.
Fred: I think I liked your thumb better. We should take some more pictures of the scene itself.
Starchild: No need. One scan with my special eye will tell us all we'll need to know. It puts the X in x-ray.
Fred: Oof. My nephew had a special eye. A pink one we called conjunctivitis.
Starchild: There's definitely a supernatural presence at work here.
Daphne: Hey, guys, wait. Listen.
Starchild: Not bad, but I am not into tap dancing. I am purely into rock 'n' roll! Whoa, yeah!
Daphne: Okay. Well, one side sounds solid. And the other hollow.
Fred: As if it's some sort of trapdoor.
Daphne: Exactly.
Starchild: It looks like one of the doors to the catacombs.
Daphne: The what-a-combs?
Starchild: The catacombs are what we call the maze of hallways that run under the park. They give us access to any area, including the main stage.
Daphne: I'll bet this is how the witch disappeared.
Starchild: Sounds dangerous. Stay back, Frank.
Fred: It's Fred.
Starchild: I'll go first to make sure it's safe.
Daphne: I hope he's all right.
Fred: For Pete's sake.
Daphne: What are you doing?
Fred: It's not like this is the first time I've ever climbed into a... Aah! Oof! I'd watch that last step. It's a doozy.
Yugi Moto: I wonder how Velma and Spaceman are doing?
Spaceman: Chikara, we need to talk.
Chikara: Spaceman, I sensed your approach.
Velma: You mean you heard the wind chimes?
Chikara: Hmph. Why do you bring this one with you?
Spaceman: Starchild seems to think they're okay. Plus, they've got a talking dog, which is kind of wild.
Chikara: Starchild cannot see as deep as I can. He has but one special eye, whereas I have two.
Velma: Some people say I have four.
Chikara: I know you think this is a joke, Miss Smarty-Pants... ...but your ignorance will cost us all.
Velma: Okay, then, I'm game. Tell us what we need to know.
Spaceman: How serious is the threat?
Chikara: The danger grows, Spaceman. The Crimson Witch senses the rock of Kissteria is near.
Velma: Rock of Kissteria? What's that?
Chikara: It's the key to holding evil at bay. This began on a Halloween night on another world... ...in a cosmic realm known as Kissteria. An evil Sorceress, called the Crimson Witch... ...created a gigantic horror known as the Destroyer. She sent the Destroyer to spread devastation throughout the land... ...the first step toward infecting the entire realm with evil.
Destroyer: Destroy!
Chikara: But the warriors had a weapon. Cosmic power crystals. The Kissteria crystals. Each crystal sounded a musical note. The warriors used the music of the crystals to force the Destroyer to retreat... ...and once the monster was back inside its volcanic temple...
Destroyer: No!
Chikara: They transferred the musical energy of the crystals... ...into a single, powerful... ...rock. That rock, the rock of Kissteria, became the key. By removing it, the Destroyer would be trapped forever. Naturally, the Crimson Witch has been desperate to retrieve it... ...especially by Halloween night... ...when circumstances are ripe to release the Destroyer.
Velma: Where's the rock now?
Chikara: It's had many protectors over the ages. Each one a descendant of the musical warriors who fought so bravely. Today these guardians are known as KISS.
Velma: You guys have it?
Spaceman: Yep. We used to display it at the Hall of KISStory in the park. But when it gets near Halloween, we keep it with us on tour.
Velma: Wait a second. Is this the rock? The Detroit Rock that you received as a gift from the city of Detroit?
Chikara: That's just a cover story.
Velma: Yeah. And isn't the Destroyer just the name of a ride?
Chikara: Blasphemous! Have you learned nothing? The Destroyer will strike fear into your heart.
Velma: I know. That's what the poster says.
Chikara: Aah! Get her away from me. She and her friends will do more harm than good.
Velma: That woman is crazy.
Chikara: But her powers are impressive.
Velma: You actually believe all that?
Chikara: Chikara's never wrong. Except that time she predicted the Love Gun album would go gold. Because it went platinum! Yeah, baby.
Miles Collisto: Are you sure this is the place sis?
Fiona Collisto: Positive.
Leo Collisto: Shh! Listen. Somebody's coming.
Daphne: Starchild! Starchild! I hope nothing's happened to him.
Captain Phoebe Callisto: Who are you?

Captain Phoebe Callisto: It's an honour to meet up with you Mr. Lacey. I'm Captain Phoebe Callisto this my family Miles,M.E.R.K.,Fiona,Leo and Stella.
Jaden Yuki: Nice to meet you.
Fred: What was that?
Connor Lacey: I have no idea.
Daphne: Of all the times to be without my flashlight.
Both: Aah!
Chip McGhoo: You wanna buy a KISS flashlight? Comes with a handy key ring.
Connor Lacey: I do. Excuse me while I KISS this great buy.
(Callistos laughing)
Chazz Princeton: Will you stop that?
Fiona Collisto: Who's that?
Cilan: His name is Chip McGhoo. He's KISS' road manager and executive officer of merchandise.
Fred: What are you doing down here?
Chip McGhoo: Hey, I was just checking on the props of the concert, and I got lost in this maze.
Daphne: There it is again.
Chip McGhoo: If I only stocked up on KISS batteries.
Daphne: Hang on. I can use my cell phone.
Chip McGhoo: Those are the props I've been looking for. KISS monster props, part of the Halloween show. House seats still available.
Fred: That doesn't sound like a prop.
Daphne: This way.
Chip McGhoo: You're leaving? Hello? Manager in the dark. Hello?
Fred: In here. I got it. Ungh!
Daphne: Freddie! What is this place?
Shandi: It's my special effects lab.
Leo Collisto: Who's that?
Iris: That's Shandi Strutter. KISS' head techie.
Starchild: I thought I told you guys to stay back.
Daphne: Some of us had other ideas.
Shandi: Don't worry, Fred. We can dry you off. Beth? Christine?
Fred: Okay. All right. That's good. Thank you.
Daphne: I take it you didn't find the witch.
Starchild: I searched this whole sector except for the chem lab. That's why I came to Shandi.
Shandi: I'm the only one who has the key. For the last few months, chemicals have gone missing, so I keep the lab under lock and key. No one gets in without coming to me first. See? Empty.
Fred: Hey, is that a chemical analyzer?
Shandi: Pretty smart of you, Fred.
Fred: I've got a couple at home. Hey, do you think you can analyze this? It's the residue from the witch's mist.
Shandi: Sure. Anything for a fellow chemmy.
Yuri: I wonder how're Shaggy and Scooby doing?
Hoopa: I will find out.
Shaggy: I don't think I've worked this hard in, like, ho-ho, forever.
Scooby-doo: Me neither.
Hoopa: Hey boys.
Scooby-doo: Hiya Hoopa.
Shaggy: Hey, Mr. Catman, when do we get to eat?
Catman: After you've brought the KISS monsters on-stage.
Scooby-doo: Monsters?
Catman: Yeah, Chip brought them over. They're below us.
Shaggy: Like, where are the stairs, man?
Catman: Don't need them.
Shaggy: That must be them, Hoopa and Scoob. Now, these are the kind of monsters I like. Fake ones.
Scooby-doo: Shaggy, look.
Shaggy: It's KISS'S green room where they hang out before the show. Scoob, you hit the jackpot. Think of all impressive people who have been invited down here. The pizza-delivery guy, the sandwich-delivery guy... ...the creepy witch, the sushi-delivery guy...
Crimson Witch: Give me rock!
Shaggy: Zoinks! Creepy witch. Like, maybe she'll think this is the real KISS and go away.
Emperor Mavro: Crimson Witch, make those things come to life.
Crimson Witch: Alive!
Shaggy: Please go away. Please go away. Please go away.
Scooby-Doo: Are they gone?
Shaggy: Maybe they're waiting for us to let our guard down.
Scooby-doo: Well, they're gonna have to wait a long time.
Velma: Shaggy? Scooby? Hoopa? Are you in there?
Shaggy: Like, how do they know our names?
Velma: Shaggy.
Shaggy: Velma? Why are you not being eaten by KISS monsters?
Velma: KISS monsters?
Daphne: What are you talking about?
Scooby-doo: They're gone.
Velma: I can't say we don't have enough suspects. The problem is finding a motive.
Connor Lacey: I can remember them. Suspect 1: Manny Goldman, suspect 2: Delilah Domino, suspect 3: Shandi Strutter, suspect 4: Chip McGhoo and suspect 5: Chikara.
Fred: The only one who'd like the park to shut down is Chip. But he doesn't seem smart enough.
Daphne: Shandi's smart enough.
Fred: I know, but she's way too cute to be a suspect.
Shaggy: Mr. Goldman and the security lady don't want the park to close. They'll lose their jobs.
Velma: Chikara is the one who's the most obsessed with the witch. She talks as if she is really supernatural.
This is my formal apology for all the mobile users.
