So. That could have gone better!

With Mecha Sonic, Robo Knuckles, and Tails Doll defeated, you've successfully kept Chicago safe, and dealt a blow to Eggman's forces. Still, there's a lot that's left unexplained. Who was that mysterious voice? Why did these robots look so different from the ones you've seen before now? Why didn't Sonic and friends recognize them? There's no answers to your questions today, unfortunately.

You'll be escorted home by the trio after everyone's picked themselves up, healed off the damage, and had a moment to recover. Feel free to play out the immediate aftermath and/or the return to the base in this post!

Rest and regroup; you've earned a break.

Then your fate is in my hands.

[ Ominous statement dropped, More does head towards the kitchen and returns a few minute later. ]

I present you with vanilla-infused white tea. I thought it might be calming.

[ He's grabbed a cup for himself as well. Might as well keep Viktor company as he waits for people to need his services. ]

[Calmly taking a drink and unable to not be a smartass about it:] How terrible. Vanilla is the one thing that will cause my systems to self-destruct.

[today has been a lot.]

I appreciate it, thank you.

[ More gives a lopsided smile at the jab. ]

In that case your demise will have been caused by your own trusting nature.

[ But also: ] You're welcome. It's been a long day.

Would not be the first time.

[VIKTOR,]

It has--but despite the considerable resistance, I think we did reasonably well. Live to fight another day, something like that.

You're right. We've all made it through - that alone gives us the chance to improve.

[ It's not correct to raise your glass when your glass is a cup of tea but. Hey. To improvement! ]

As prone as I am to being down on myself for my lack of ability, if I turn my thinking around it is a marvel how much I stand to learn from the many different kinds of people here.

Oh, likewise. Even in such a short time, I have learned a staggering amount of other worlds and their differences to my own. It is a fascinating thing.
