Rejected, all Pyramid Head could do was turn around and shuffle out, head hanging low. Today was supposed to be the big day! It figures I will only have heartbreak in the end. Well, I guess I will have to spend the night with the nurses. Again.

Outside, he tossed the blood covered flowers and box of chocolate. Jimmy died for nothing. It was Jimmy, right?

Gabriel chuckled and said, "Well, more like she's . . . particular.  Not to mention that the anatomy wouldn't work."

Forest flipped Karna the British two finger salute.  "Sod off."

Taking a considerable sip of her teacup, La Folia's bright eyes looked upon the various seated people in the room.

"And that was how I met your godmother."

Grigori smiled at Forest from across the room.

"You seem to be in such a bad mood. Try to lighten up. You're not very entertaining if you mope all day."

"Bugger off," Forest grumbled, even as some good ole Priest began to play.  They were no Maiden, but they were pretty damned good.

She glared at Grigori and snapped, "You're part of the reason I'm in a bloody 'bad mood'."

Gabriel smiled at La Folia and said, "Well, as long as you don't meet Mommy Dearest, things are going well."

With a flash of light, the glorious Sir Bonesington appeared within the Velvet Room, his icy and yet delightfully cheery tone spreading joy through the place's atmosphere.

"Good god, I see the mood here isn't the lightest! That simply won't do, ladies and gentlemen! It's time to cool off!" he said, loud and pompous, bony features somehow twisting in humor.

With a twist of the wrist, the lich was suddenly holding a microphone.

"HIT IT, BOB!" he clamored with a grand gesture, and a piano suddenly dropped from the ceiling, the spot promptly illuminated by a spotlight, and a big, lumbering abomination of multiple arms and a silly rotting grin, wearing a bowler hat and a bowtie, fell down into the pianist's seat.

With a stretch of its meaty arms, Bob The Abomination began playing the piano with exquisite skill.

Sir Bonesington snapped the fingers of his free hand, and a pile of cadavers dropped into the middle of the room as a large, red colored Crypt Lord wearing a top hat with a flower decoration and clutching a comparatively tiny microphone in one of its claws sauntered in and began to sing.

"Good Heavens, are these human cadavers?"

"Indeed they are!"
Bonesington's fine non-existant british tongue joined in.

"What on earth do you intend to do with them?"

"To life, TO LIFE, I'll bring them! I'll bring all these dead men to life!"

A banshee in a gleaming dress also holding a microphone then appeared out of thin air as she joined the song.

"He's found a way of, reviving them!"

"Really reviving them!"

The song proceeded as the participants danced and the cadavers rose from the pile one by one to join in the merry melody.
[13:38:37] Helligator: Depends on the god, but gods by definition in Nasuverse are strong because they have divine authority.
[13:38:48] Kat: Even the toilet god?
[13:38:56] Helligator: No one worships toilets.
[13:39:00] Helligator: Don't be a shitlord.

[04:32:08] Helligator: I can't make dragons in power armor like this

[19:50:12] francobull III: [...] why are you being all assive aggressive?

[23:32:37] Helligator: use the narrative as a means to convey an interesting story and cool conflicts with the openness you're allowed
[23:32:43] Helligator: not to CHEAT stories and conflicts

Songbird lifted the Bird Door on the roof of the Velvet Room (The owners were tired of him ripping off the ceiling whenever he wanted to get in, you see), and thumped down to the floor below. He made a lot of friends, and was quite excited. The green-eyed Man-Bird started to flail his arms around and chirped ecstatically, trying his best to tell everyone that company was on its way right then and there.

Songbird then told them that he stumbled across another tear (The same kind of thing that brought him to Nexus City), which brought him to this underwater city. There, he met a whole bunch of men in these thick diving suits, along with a few girls with needles attached to their arms. He hit it off with everyone, and invited them to come back through the tear for the Happy Drink that the Blonde Woman is always so fond of.

Of course, no one could understand a word Songbird was saying. Everyone in the Velvet Room just smiled and nod their heads like they always do whenever Songbird tries to tell them something, long since given up on actually trying to understand him. Because of this, they weren't ready for the forty Big Daddies and six Big Sisters to suddenly burst through the front door...

A black staff, recognizable as the Brahmastra, took the shape of a microphone with a proper stand as Karna stood up and began singing in an almost chiming voice.

"He can do it, to life, to life! He brings them..."

Sir Bonesington's expression lit up as he felt a kindred soul join in this wonderful merry time! Floating across the floor of the room, he move to Karna's side and winked at him as they continued the song.

"I really do bring them to life!

I am a genius with chemicals!"

"Also polemicals; Yes it's been true there's been striiife~"

"This is really the most shocking thing I've ever heard, and I have heard a few!"

"Oh it's really not too shocking, if you were a dead man, you might like it too!"

Thank all of the gods for the knowledge of modernity he had been blessed with, though Karna, as he used it's power to keep in tact with the jolly lich.

"To life, to life, I'll bring them! With one small injection, LIKE THIS!"

"Think of it papa, we'll never die! Live for, forever~"

"My!"

"Cause I bring theeeeeeee~eeem.... TO LIFE!"


Sir Bonesington sang his frozen heart out and felt a grin melt into his face from the enthusiasm of the jolly glorious stranger in accompanying him. The good gentleman was proving to be quite an artist, and there were few things the lich appreciated more than sharing this artistic act with like minded people!

"Well, I must say this is amazing"

"I began experimenting on small animals of various kinds and perfected a solution which reanimates dead tissue"

"See, papa?"

"Hmm, mmmmyes"

"When I was sure my solution worked, I began to test it on human subjects!"

"Hear, papa!"

"Hmm, that is fascinating"

Transferring flawlessly between all 3 tone arts of this part of the song, the slightest indications of a smirk clad Karna's face as his fiery passionate singing was balanced out by the Lich's chilling charade.

"And in the end I was even able to convince Dr. Halsey that my methods were sound!"

"And here he is!"

"To life... to life, he brought me..."

"Hah, I brought Dr. Halsey to life! Of course, I first had to kill the man, with some ingenius plan~!"

"Heee just shot him!"

"Okay, it's true! I shot him... I shot him, but brought him to life!"


Sir Bonesington continued to sing in the company of the fiery warrior, spreading soon evaporating flakes of snow through the air as he changed positions to mimic the speaking roles in the song. His tone seamlessly changed between the lines as necessary, echoing out of his very happy looking skull.

"He has no reason to want to live"

"I do, she's your to give; Prudence here as my wiiiiiiiife"

"Oh papa dear, I want to marry Herbert since he has a power once reserved for God."

"I never could say "no" to you, my darling, even though young West should face a firing squad."

"To life, to life, we'll bring it!"

"A marriage--"

"For better--"

"Or worse."

"And if that life has no quality, still there's the quantity. We will bring it to life!"

To bring such joy to the Lich was Karna's only necessary reward for what he was doing.
