neprider | Displaced [Open! Current event!]

The swirling rift began to spit out Riders, Goddesses, and whomever else that got pulled through...

Arifore lands atop a tall steel building as she watched people fall around. Despite the mishap, she was pleased. The area looking like an odd and rundown city. Rusted cars sit abandoned in the streets. The air quiet before they showed up.

"Fufuu. How lucky. Hmm?" Glancing down to a gem inlaid on the top of her hand before her wrist started...it glints and gives a faint pulse.

As the others fell, they too would notice they had a gem on their hand as well. This would be something that would connect them to unlikely allies as they landed all around the area...
The stones matching one other person around them.

Red eyes narrowing, fishing in her attire for yet another trick up her sleeve and finding it. A spell scroll of sorts to have her teleport away from the area for now...

“I’m the game master, and all things like this concern me~”

Smirking eerily, he steps near the edge of where they were, peering down.

“I am the admin of all things. Riders and goddesses will be under my thumb before long.” But even -he- needed his allies, he needed to ensure his prospects survive and thrive. This whole situation is added leverage for him..

Turning to her, he tilts his head.

“Don’t just stand there, what’s your name woman? Kamen Rider Genm stand before you now, your future god!~”

From:

absolutevictory

"Oh..? Interesting, coming from a Rider. Most don't pay the goddesses much mind" a brow quirks before looking around the area.

The roster board was steadily filling up as the gems pinged.

"Arfoire. One of the eldest beings in Gamindustri! One that needs no nation!"

From:

genmnokami

"I have my stake in all of this~"

Arfoire..

Huh.

Arms cross with a calculative grin.

"Hooh~ No nation, huh. Gehehe~ ALRIGHT! I've decided, I'll help run your little game, since you're so eager. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're of the 7 Sages aren't you? There's a database on all of you."

Approaching her, with a glint in his eye.

"I can make each and every one of your problems meet the might of divinity. But I require one thing in turn, before our fun."

From:

absolutevictory

"As do many. Although there's something different about how you speak"

Facing him fully now with some intrigue in her expression.

"Yes. Although we're a bit scattered, we're very much around. Oh? What is it?"

From:

genmnokami

Smmiiiirk~

"I will take a spot as one of the seven. That's all."

The influence it brings, may be something he can utilize.

"Don't worry about it being and even number. I'll deal with that. Are we agreed?~"

From:

absolutevictory

A shrug. "Suits me fine" Arfoire was at the top anyway. It mattered less about her underlings.

Crossing her arms. He was so eager...the Goddess would have to watch this one closely.

From:

genmnokami

“Good~”

With that as an added chip, he’ll deal with the out of place number, at a later time.

“Saaaaaa..~ Let’s enjoy the game…”

From:

absolutevictory

A smirk, a small laugh faintly tingling from her throat.

"There's much here that was a pleasant surprise. I look forward to seeing what's made of all of this"

From:

genmnokami

"Hmph~ I'm curious about much. Especially...the power you used to bring this to fruition. You may have helped cracked the code to the Fluxes. That disc.."

Musing to himself, thoughtfully..as he trails off.

From:

absolutevictory

"The disc? Child's play-or it was. Thinking on it now, the amount of people it transported must've been a reason it broke. Anyway, the disc was a monster spawning disc I modified with help from a Tome Fairy and some chaos share energy. It was a prototype, but seemed to do well"

From:

genmnokami

"Chaos share energy..."

Turning to her, slowly.

"...Are you aware of what you done? In the slightest? THAT DISC. THAT MONSTER SPAWNING DISC!! Whatever it's components are capable of it's a spot piece for chaos share energy and the temporal fluxes that come at random—they must share the same make up as the disc, then the question is—what creates the chain reaction to temporal Fluxes so randomly and YOU."

POINTING.

"YOUVE NUDGED THE UNKNOWN!! Like a stick POKING at a beast!"

"This isn't a mere monster spawning—no no no no—the rift between space and time have been torn OPEN!"

Slams his fist nearby...out of excitement. Huffing. And panting..

"This...this adds layer to the game...yes...heh...~ Heh heh...~"

From:

absolutevictory

Red eyes just stare.

"Excitable, aren't you?"

Monitors flit between rider battles. She's appearing fixated on the one with Ryuki and Dapaan before her eyes tear away.

"Chaos shares is for the most part an untapped market. It's unpredictable nature has claimed lives of many. So much so that any rival nations that have been created have been destroyed by the energy alone"

From:

genmnokami

A keen eye notices this for a brief moment, with a small brow raise. Hands upon his hips after collecting himself from his earlier 'moment.'

"It's nothing my superior intellect can't handle. I will harness and master it's influence, it's only expected of a natural born talent such as myself."

Smirking, he looks to the holo images with several Riders and goddesses, as if the gears in his head are turning..

From:

absolutevictory

A small noise of acknowledgement.

She'll definitely have to keep an eye on him...

Now more so studying the spawning creatures that have began their attack.

"It seems anomalies have fused to create fascinating creatures. Ha~"

From:

genmnokami

“Fascinating isn’t it?~”

Arms behind his back, watching idly.

“The phenomena has been widespread through Gameindustri. But this is a much more intense result. The creatures of the world meshed with the ones of ours. Repeatedly, consistently..”

“And now this. So distorted it’s beyond origin. Perhaps other worlds monsters have even been added to the pool. When the main characters in a video game encounter stronger overall enemies, it’s either the sign of the end..or the sign of a new, more intense driven sequel~ Geheheh..”

absolutevictory

"That's one good way to see it."
She's looking forward to the despair. There are some already visibly unhappy campers they have.

Stress

Unease

Uncertainty

These all make for even the level-headed to potentially act out

From:

genmnokami

While he studies the monitors, he can't help but study her as well. The variables in this situation would imply she is not alone either..

A thought for later.

For now, he reaches in his coat pocket, pulling out a tablet with a keyboard connected.

Sitting it down and revealing his Bugvisor to connect to it.

"Hm~" Smirking. It's time to detect any source of chaos energy he can utilize later..fingers busy typing away. "I'm utilizing my Bugvisor as a hotspot to detect spikes in energy. As the gamemaster I prefer to know things ahead of my players." Secretly...he's also, searching for Kurome's unique energy. Hidden anxiety he would never show outright.

Though while he's typing..he'll prod her a bit.

"Any history on the state of this universe? You didn't do all this, did you?~" Amused, and teasing..although he did have curiosities to this worlds downfall too.

From:

absolutevictory

Eyes linger on a monitor with her lips forming a smirk.

"This universe? Some. This was once a world where riders were for the better part harmonious. Game systems fell from Celestia due to two creation goddesses. Myself and one other. Riders began to harness the power, which I assume lead to this"

Gesturing to the ruins.

"Power corrups. Certain people wish to do good with that power. Other's...well"

Her attention back on the screen prior that interested her.

From:

genmnokami

Musing over her words. It all makes sense now. The discs. The outcome. The history. The power stored here.

So this is the fate of this reality. A war over power, that the Riders helped initiate.

"So we're the problem after all. Mm..." Words that were more for himself, but spoken aloud.

His attention diverts to her, looking away from his screen as a CMD runs on his tablet.

"Someone's awfully invested~" Smiirk. "Why's that now.." Leaning in, intrigued.

From:

absolutevictory

Purple eyes dart toward him when he spoke, then back to the screen as sirens on the monitors that were spread out blared and chimed with the first elimination.

The victim's image crossing the screen for the moment before returning to the action.

"Good riddance. She was a pest anyway" a dismissive hand wave before she watched the Swamp Witch attacking Dapaan and expose his area to Ryuki.

"Hmph."

From:

genmnokami

Leaning back in his chair. Amused. The elimination on screen earned a mixed reaction, but he tilts his head some..

"Aren't you forgetting something? So you do have a prized boy in this game. How unfortunate."

From:

absolutevictory

"Perhaps. But he knew the price for that kind of reaction"

Eyes remaining locked on the screen as Ryuki delivers a powerful attack.

"However, this sets things in motion. Gets people thinking perhaps that little buddy system they were attempting isn't worth much merit"

From:

genmnokami

“How cutthroat of you.” Grinning~

“These are the nature of the game. And I suppose you wanted to sow that seed of doubt. Rattling players is a test of their willpower. Interesting. The stakes have now become /very/ real..”

From:

absolutevictory

Nodding with a small laugh that didn't meet her eyes.

A hint of remorse at losing her actual partner, but it was fleeing. She turned to face him fully.

"So it is. Not everyone here is a hero, and that proves that some are lose cannons without thought or restraint"

From:

genmnokami

“It makes them interesting tools in the long run. But wildcards are a significant risk, that could compromise a grand vision.”

A final tap. Seems he’s found a familiar signal, much to his satisfaction.

“Still~ I’m enjoying the play by play..”
