Voice Testing, likely going to Save the Earth - Canon is Kamen Rider Blade

[fusionjack]

Do you expect me to be thankful for this, mun? For this "second chance" that you're giving to me?

...

I object to your plans. To become human... how disgusting. Let Chalice do useless things like that. I have better things to do than be a stockbroker.

[Like what? Be a playing card?]

Like finish the Battle Royal. It was in my grasp before. I merely misjudged a few things. Let that be the second chance that you grant me!

[Someone else has his own objections, as well.]

Underestimating the humans is what got you sealed the second time.

That icon is just the right amount of angry.

[fusionjack]

[See how much he cares, Chalice.]

Which is why I won't underestimate them again. I've learned something from my dealings with Garren.

[chalicejoker]

And what was that? That you can't handle getting into a fight directly?

[He will start something right here, right now, if he has to.]

[fusionjack]

That killing a human's loved ones is not something to do lightly.

[He will not dignify the rest of that with a verbal response. Maybe a glare, but not a verbal response.]

[chalicejoker]

But have you figured out why that is?

[He has his belt out now. That he wants a fight is fairly evident.]

[fusionjack]

Because it's likely to be the catalyst for some sort of undiscovered power within them. One that's far too hard to properly direct.

[And the 'Missing The Point' award for this year goes to...

And don't think he doesn't notice the belt.]

Hmph. Here? Now?

[chalicejoker]

...you'll never understand their power. You're incapable of it.

[Because even he has figured out why that was a problem, man.]

It's as good a place as any.

[There's a grimace as he draws a card, though he doesn't do anything with it.]

Besides, there might not be a chance for it later, if things go as planned.

[fusionjack]

[That doesn't get a verbal response from him, either. But it does produce a smirk.]

We'll fight again. Even if they make us family, it's in our nature.

[He raises a hand as though to push up his sunglasses.

(really, someone should have told one of them that there's an anti-violence field...)]

[alwaysfaithful]

There's nothing wrong with second chances.

'Battle Royal'? That sounds rather... ominious.

[fusionjack]

A second chance as a human is one that I don't want.

[He frowns deeper.]

The great war between the Undead should sound ominous.

[chalicejoker]

Will we really? Family is a powerful thing for humans...I'm not sure you understand just how powerful.

[He was expecting that, and he's already transformed into Chalice and ready to summon his bow, only...no bow. Stupid anti-violence field. It'll allow for a transformation, but it won't allow for a weapon to be produced out of nowhere.]

[fusionjack]

[Again with claiming that he doesn't understand... he snaps a hand towards Chalice, his form rippling and changing to that of the Peacock Undead... but yeah, there are no fireballs to be had.

He stops, stares at his hand, then lets it fall to his side.]

...I'm disappointed.

[chalicejoker]

As am I.

[He's looking down at his hand and wondering why the bow won't appear.]

It would seem this place isn't good for anything but talking.

[And he sounds more than a little irritated at that.]

[occamsblade]

Not everyone deserves a second chance.

[fusionjack]

Not everyone gets one.

[Now wait a minute...]

You. Who are you?

[fusionjack]

Not something you have much experience with, Chalice?

[He can still mock, even if he can't blow things up. That'll have to be good enough.]

[occamsblade]

I'm no one important.

You should be careful with that second chance.

[fusionjack]

[Judging by that frown, he doesn't believe a word of it.]

I intend to be, even if I dislike the circumstances.

[occamsblade]

[It shouldn't be his business, but...] Not if you intend to use it to restart the Battle Royale.

[fusionjack]

It's not much of a Battle Royal, with two participants. But I'll make do.

[There's a twitch of a grin.] No one important? Really?

[chalicejoker]

[It's Hajime's turn to make a noise of irritation.]

I'm learning. It's more than you'll ever be able to manage...at least as you are.

[Hey, if this is how they're going to have to fight, he will try.]

[occamsblade]

Really.

[Two participants, huh.] If it's too unsatisfying for you, suspending it forever is an option.

[fusionjack]

Try to make sure that you're learning the right things.

[As far as fights go, this isn't scratching the itch at all...]

...whatever happens here is meaningless. When we meet again, then there can be a proper fight. Family and feelings aside.

[fusionjack]

[His lip curls in disgust.]

A two-sided war is better than no war at all.

[occamsblade]

Have you considered trying something else? Just as an experiment, for a while.

[chalicejoker]

And what sort of things would those be? How to get sealed by a human with a gun and a reason to hold a grudge against you?

[No, it's not a terribly satisfying fight.]

If that happens, don't be surprised if you start to feel differently. Humans are funny like that.

[fusionjack]

No.

I'm not open to suggestions, either.

[fusionjack]

[He seems to want to get irritable about the whole sealed-by-that-idiot-with-a-gun thing, and he clenches a fist... but then assumes a more thoughtful pose.]

...you keep bringing him up. We wouldn't be lucky enough to have him come along to this to, would we?

I can hold a grudge as well as he can.

[occamsblade]

[As expected.] Suit yourself.

Although... [adjusts glasses] I seem to have heard something about being a stockbroker.

[fusionjack]

[He'd laugh if he had a sense of humor.]

The stockbroker thing wasn't my idea. I'm at the mercy of an idiot.

[occamsblade]

Oh. Oh, I see. Well, good luck with that.

[chalicejoker]

No. He's not there...not yet, anyway. Maybe he'll show up with time...

[Of course Hajime keeps bringing him up, you don't let a defeat like that just slide in these circumstances.]

[fusionjack]

Time will tell.

[And fwoosh, back to human.]

Enough of this. We'll see what comes of our mun's plans when we meet again.
