Post #1046, by Mog116

(Actually, It wasn't his Idea for Lavos to come. Besides, his AC is Darth. I think that maybe, he shouldn't be makin' such rules)
Ladies and gentlemen, you just read the wisest words Mog116 will ever write on this thread. And it's true, Lavos wasn't originally Tengu's idea. But only because someone got there first. Tengu would have come up with it or something very similar to it on his own, given enough time.
Mog suddenly felt an urge to go to Lavos's place (Why are so many of you gpin' to winters? Lavos is at Saturn Valley.) and fight Lavos's ROBOT form. (Tengu Maul said we couldn't fight Lavos's core, not his robot.) Mog teleported to lavos's crater wherever it is, then went inside.
I would theorize they are going to Winters exactly because that is not where Lavos is. And I presume the 'robot' means Lavos's second form, in the three-round final battle of Chrono Trigger.
(Ton, take my help, okay. I'll help you, okay. As long as you help me fight Lavos)
That's really godawful posting. You're supposed to write your AC into helping his AC, not try to push him around with parenthetical OOC comments.




Post #1047, by Tengu Maul

I don't disagree on the vacation part of this, our characters also need the vacation, but I want the four to beat Lavos since they beat one invader(Giygas), and they have more experience than all our ACs combined.
You are welcome to your desires. It's just that you're not going to get them, because neither any of the Chosen Four© nor Lavos is your AC. So tell us what you want if you must; just understand that it's completely irrelevant.
Also, I'd like them to have signifiance in this story somewhere, since this is almost just an AC-fest without them.
Yes, it certainly is. You seem to have forgotten that PSI322 made it explicit in Post #1 that it was supposed to be an AC-fest.

But what you have to understand is, this is practically a cut-and-paste of his boilerplate Declaration of Intent to Control that he posted in almost every IF thread.
If you want to return to the vacation you can quit the fight and go back, and let us handle Lavos.
That's exactly what I've been saying for a hundred posts now! You can have Lavos! I don't want him!

Of course, if you're an IF veteran you can spot the problem: if a group of posters breaks off and tries to enjoy itself while ignoring Saving the World, then the Saving the World crowd will, sooner or later, try to invade the Party Crowd's storyline.
About our absence, it's just Mani and I(especially Mani) are very busy to worry about any IFs now a days. It's a little thing called "life", and we can't always shove it aside to be here[in other words I've been really busy].)
I have to wonder exactly what Tengu Man's "life" at this point consisted of. Tengu, the floor is yours.
Over the time, many things had happened, including Paula and Jeff conquering their Magicants. All they needed now was Poo, and they could go after Lavos' Core.
That right there is the entire plot substance of the post. Highly disappointing for a Tengu Man post, I must say.
(Poo, now we need you, or whoever has control on the real Poo to come to our group, and we can get this accomplished.)
I'm laughing because that is so deliciously Tengu Man of him. He's trying to control someone else's AC as if it was his own! His need to control knew no bounds.

Post #1048, by Mani Mani

(Yes, I agree with Tengu. We do have lives outside the IF, and with the end of school nearing and all, it can be pretty stressful for everyone. Please bear with us here.)
Never in all the posts Mani Mani put on the forum did she ever, not even once, disagree with Tengu. You can understand why I always assumed 'Mani Mani' was Tengu Man multiaccounting.
Ness's group was just about ready to go to face Lavos. The girls and the boys were preparing in their separate rooms in the Twoson hotel. Soon, everyone came out and met in the lobby of the hotel. Mani looked Jeff up and down and smiled.
"Wow, Jeff. You seem so...so confident...and mature...since you came out of your Magicant." Jeff grinned a little.
Mani, just get him alone and kiss him and undo your top and get down to business. Guys are not complicated. A guy like Jeff especially would present zero difficulty at all. A 2 on your Seduce check would do the job easily.
"Thanks."
"Cheep cheep!" went Mani's chick in her pocket.
There's a good double-entendre in there somewhere, but I can't quite find it. I'm sure PP/QC could have.
"Well, are we all ready?" asked Ness. "We're just going to teleport near where Lavos is and wait for Poo there. We can't face Lavos without him." Everyone was ready, so Ness teleported them.
I can set aside Tengu's ongoing attempt to claim various EarthBound characters plus Lavos as his ACs. But this is still very annoying writing, because Mani makes no effort to justify why they can't face Lavos without Poo there. Even with Giygas, OK, Ness is the Chosen One and all, but Paula's the only one of the four that has to be there for it to end well. You can walk into the battle with everyone else in the party dead and she can win it by herself just fine.
The group stood at a distance from Lavos, on a hill overlooking the crater.
"He looks so small from here," mused Mani.
"Yeah, but we all know that's not true," said Jack.
"Now all we have to do is to wait for Poo to get here..." said Paula.
"I hope he realizes we need him badly," said Ness.
She's laying it on a little thick there. This is probably about the right time for guruzeth to jump in and remind everyone that EBPoo's AC is most certainly not the EarthBound character. Except he probably won't because that would just make Tengu's life easier, and guruzeth was in the habit of putting personal agendas ahead of what makes sense.

Post #1049, by Little Yoshi

(Agreeing with Mani and Tengu, I haven't posted due to enormous projects. Sorry)
(I would rather a vacation IF, but this adventure is pretty neat)
I don't really know why it's such a big deal to have things to do other than post on IF once in a while. Next we'll be reading 'sorry I didn't post sooner but I really had to piss!'
Tim finally woke up. "Whoa, and I thought I got up early..." Tim moaned, looking at the clock saying 9:00.
In 2000, 9:00 WAS early. For me, at least.
"Okay, everyone who's on the boat, I guess you all want to go to Lavos, so I'll get you all there," Tim said. He used his trusty spring-out-of-the-water-thingy, and landed in the waters just outside Saturn Valley.
I seem to recall this actually isn't the first appearance of MacGyver's latest work, the spring-out-of-the-water-thingy.
"Okay, everyone! Please watch yer step!Make sure you have all of your personal belongings, and go whup lavos's rear end...um, wherever that is!" Tim said. The crew(excluding Tim) disembarked. "I'll be back soon...maybe," Tim said, and sprung off.
I notice that Liyoshi really prefers to fight solo battles. That or he's waiting for a chance at a Big Damn Hero moment. Either way, I am pleased with how short this post is. The nuisance quotient of a Liyoshi post tends to grow exponentially, relative to length.




Post #1050, by SirMontyG

Although taken for a ride by Sir's rage, Diamond Dog was far from finished. After a few exchanged blows, an odd sound could be heard...

*Trumpet Fanfare, folowed by odd elevator music*

"Just great." Anthadd and Sir said in unison. They both realized who had just dropped in..

"Pictures taken instintaniosly! Wait a minute, isn't that the cutest little puppy you've ever seen? Now you two guys get by your pet.."

"*cough* *cough* *Crazy* *cough* Um.. he's not housetrained, we'd better stay here."

"Well, alright. Ready? Say Fuzzy Pickles!"

"No." The two again said in unison.

"Perfect. That will bring back the fondest of memories..say, what are you two doing all the way out here, anyways?"

"Well, I was recruiting Anthadd to help get all the AC's together to destroy Lavos and a few other evils, but he's really just looking for the melodies, so I was going to help him with the Fire Spring and bid farewell." Sir stated

"Ahh, that's all and good, except only the chosen ones can defeat Lavos." Said the Cameraman

"Well, what about Randites or evil AC's?"

"What are you asking me for, I'm only a photograher..Ahh well, time to fly!" *odd elevator music*

"Man, now I really don't know what to do.."

*GrrrAwer!!*
Major Asshole yet again makes me LOL. This entire post is pretty much a 'hey Anthadd, I'm bored with this, can we wrap it up?' Major Asshole's bizarre tangents really add flavoring to series of posts that really can get pretty tedious. I'm sure you're as thankful for them as I am.
"Oh, right, the boss.." and so the heated battle continued
No it didn't. The heated battle ended like two Anthadd posts ago. It's Diamond Dog you're fighting now. So this is, I don't know, the hard battle or something.
