#what is this? dj cyber red? sure sure why not

[minalyce]

having no mouth must sucks when you really wanna kiss the guy that beheaded you that one time

[kwangyadetective]

Now that I think of it, I think those lines that resembles waves may not always be Kwangya. Even in Kangta’s Free To Fly MV, it was only there at the beginning.

I think this is FLAT.

I mean that’s where the aes reside. Remember when I said NCT has two worlds? aespa too I just forgot about it when I wrote on NCT’s post shdhd aespa has the ae’s world (FLAT) and the real world. I presume that FLAT just means the tech world or basically social media. Their posts are floating there too. Its like one of those Vaporwave backgrounds. I presume these waves carry information, specifically the ones we post on social media. To be honest though, have they ever show us what FLAT really looks like? I just assumed, but its not like its their real world too.

I was thinking this is a part of what makes Kwangya? I mentioned that Kwangya is made up of the NCT’s Ether (filtration of sea of unconscious), I wonder if these cyber information also makes up Kwangya. Kwangya is a place for all SM artists, it can’t just be created by NCT only. Its suppose to represent SM itself, right?

The DJs have their own home😃

At this point, I think its safe to say that each artists are in their own homes. Not exactly homeplanets but their own world. Some even have dual worlds. This actually made me question, “Why is aespa the only one that has an obvious ‘real world’ that has real people?”. NCT so far never show us a ‘real world’. They do have a Reality but even that is rarely (or NEVER) shown. They di everything in the Dream world, all of their MVs are dreams. In Beautiful they did show a location with people but thats in the dream world. Specifically for them too, I was thinking (after reading several theories too) their Reality is like a ghost town, empty, (perhaps post-apocalyptic?) there are people but only a few, because everyone (or majority of the human population) are still in the dream world and the neos are on their way to wake them up aka Reality after Dreaming (that doesn’t mean they’re locked up in there). There is still life in their Reality. Perhaps aespa’s ‘real world’ isn’t Earth but a planet or world that people are living in it but somewhere where the technology is way more advanced than our Earth (remember that digital lecture Giselle had in Ep1 Black Mamba?).

But at the end of the day each SM artists do have their own world and story. Kwangya (so far) seems to be the only one they have in common, the place beyond their worlds and possibly where they could meet each other. For NCT and aespa, they need to be in their ‘other world’ to go there. I’m not very sure about the other artists, but if I’m not mistaken Red Velvet has Red and Velvet (and something to do with the mirrorverse?) but not many people talks about it. Plus Kosmo but lets save that for next time. Their worlds are fictional alright, and I don’t think its suppose to portray our Earth. Kangta resides in the actual Kwangya, possibly he has a higher role than others.

BTW everything I said in here are thought on the spot so I might have to recheck contents again to confirm things, and Yes my thoughts do change over time depending on the new info I get. Do share your thoughts if you have any.

~•°~•°~•°~•°~•°~•°~•°~•°~•°

Y/n sat in her bedroom, waiting for anything interesting to happen today. She had woken up around 12pm, and had lounged in her pajamas all day, watching random shows on tv, and texting her friend Mirko.

The two girls had become friends when they crossed paths while fighting a villain, which lead to Mirko finding out her best friend was a vigilante, and not a hero. The h/c haired girl huffed out in annoyance at how slow her day was going, still waiting on a respond from her bunny hero friend. It felt like years when her phone vibrated next to shed as she mindlessly clicked on the random channels.

MIRKO 🐇♥️

There's this night club, it's called Rosette Flames. Get ready meet me there in an hour or so.

Y/n jumped from her bed, landing on the cold hard wood floor, but she ignored her pain and ran to her bathroom, showering in under ten minutes...and spent the next fifty minutes deciding on what to wear.

Finally she decided to wear a black lace bralette with a powder pink skirt, accompanied by black laced up heels. Her hair was done in messy curls, doing some final touch ups on her make up, going with a natural smokey eyeshadow with cherry glossed lips. Y/n took a final glance at her outfit and make up, before sending a text to her bunny friend that she was on her way, feeling a little bit bad that she would be thirty minutes late.

The two girls walked into the club, their eyes going wide to the size of golf balls. The ceiling of the club was pure glass, letting the silver moon shine through, lighting the dance floor slightly. The DJ stand looked something straight out of a retro movie, the whole place did, the bar was built like a semi circle, the purple lights making it look cyber retro. The dance floor was and LED tiled, as fairy lights hung above the dance floor.

Mirko linked her arm with y/n, a bewildered look on both of their faces at the sight. "Do you wanna dance!" Mirko had to shout over the loud music that penetrated their ears, making her voice come out muffled. The bunny hero took off her jacket waiting for her friend to respond, handing it to the bartender, asking if he could look after it.

Y/n looked at her friend, seeing her wear a white tight dress with red heels. Y/n has said this before, if Mirko wasn't seeing someone, she would try hitting on her. Which would always make Mirko say that of y/n wasn't interested in a certain winged male, Mirko would try making a move on the h/c haired girl. "Lets dance!" Mirko dragged y/n out on the dance floor, placing one hand on her waist as y/n swayed back and forth, feeling the beat of the music vibrating through her veins.

The vigilante had almost forgotten that she was in public, or that she was dancing with her friend at a club. All she could feel was the music coarsing through her body. The girl hasn't even noticed that her friend was dancing with a stranger with red hair, or that a raven haired male was dancing with y/n. She just danced to the music, feeling the male behind her follow her lead.

Unbeknownst to the two girls, the winged male sat at the bar, holding his gaze onto y/n, seeing her body sway side to side, feeling the rhythm of the music. But when the stranger came into view, he felt his anger boil at the sight of them two dancing close together. How the strangers hands roamed her body, or how he held her close to his chest. It made something dark grow in him, he wanted to be the one that would hold her like that, or be the one to be that close to her. He wanted her.

Ever since he talked to Mirko five months about how he felt around her, at first he thought he was poisoned, not being familiar to the whole liking thing. Only for Mirko to burst out laughing, finally telling him after ten minutes of her laughing. That he likes her. He looked at her with a blank stare, waiting for her to explain. The more they talked about her, the more he realised that he did like y/n. He likes y/n.

While Keigo was lost in his own mind, y/n had noticed him sitting there. She had felt someone staring at her, making the girl feel uneasy, but when she saw it was her friend, the guy she had feelings for, she felt at ease. Y/n excused herself from the guy, going over to her friend that was dancing with the red haired male. "Did you invite Keigo?" Y/n had to shout her question out. Mirko looked confused at first, but when she caught Keigos presence at the bar she shook her head no.

But her concussion faded into mischief, the sudden change in her mood made y/n worry a little. Especially after knowing what that look means, it meant something bad or interesting was going down. Mirko dragged y/n back to the stranger, "Make him jealous." Y/n was confused at what Mirko meant by that, not wanting to give their big secret away, so she played along. "Are you both that dense? He likes you! And you like him!." Mirko left her friend there with the stranger once again.

The stranger behind her asked her if she was okay, or that if she wanted to take a break. To which y/n shook her head and said she was okay. The pair went back to dancing, her hips pressed against his, as his hands roamed her body once again.

Keigo felt his anger rise to a wild fire. He wanted to be the one to dance with her like that. He could feel himself getting light headed at the sight of her though, it was very complicated, he wanted to be with her. But just looking at her for a certain amount of time made him toxicated, it made him weak to the knees and fuzzy minded. As he kept staring at her, he jumped slightly when he saw that she had caught his gaze. Not expecting her to look his way, but once she did, he was held hostage in her gorgeous eyes. He saw the mischief hidden in her e/c orbs. Keigo saw as she brought the strangers head down to her neck, as she threw her head back to his shoulder. The sight made him want to actually kill an innocent civilian.

Y/n turned her gaze to the stranger, not really minding his company, but silently preferred the winged males. The h/c haired girl spun around in his hold, his hands going on her a*s, a gasp left her lips when he lightly squeezed it. Tugging her closer to him. The two were oblivious to the looming winged male behind y/n, they were too captivated in their dance that Keigo had to pull y/n to his chest.

Y/n felt herself being tugged to a hard wall, making her look up at Keigos stone hard facial expression, his golden eyes glaring actual daggers at the male across from him. "I think that's enough." Y/n tensed up at his voice, even when fighting villains she has never heard his voice come out that threatening. It made her believe that keigo could most likely kill the male if he really wanted to.

The stranger rolled his eyes at keigo. "Dude we were just dancing, chill out." The stranger went to reach back for y/n, only for keigo to tug her further into him, and side step so she was further from his reach.

"I said. That's enough."

The raven haired male scoffed and walked away. Keigo held his gaze onto the male, making sure he was gone out of sight before tugging y/n from the dance floor. The girl behind him was actually surprised she was able to keep up with his speed. "Keig-" she cut herself off she saw keigo had brought her to the alley way of the club. "Okay...if you're gonna kill me, make sure you don't copy Jack The Ripper." She laughed lightly, trying to bring light into the current situation she was in.

Seeing that he had his back to her she reached for to him. Once her hand came in contact with his shoulder blade, he jumped and spun around in a quick movement. Before she could even blink he had her pinned to the brick wall, his body pressed against hers, trapping her between the wall and his body. Her placed his left hand on her neck, while his right hand was beside her hip. Y/n gasped out in surprise, feeling a fire pit grow in her abdomen at his actions.

"What the hell was that?" He growled out in her ear, his left hand squeezing her neck lightly when she didn't answer. "I won't ask twice baby bird." He looked into her e/c eyes, his golden eyes morphing into a rusted brown, they were practically glowing with rage.

"Mirko..." She gasped out when Keigo lifted her leg up to his waist to press harder against her. "Said to make you...jealo-" she stopped talking when she felt something hard pressing against her needy core. Biting back a moan, feeling his right right hand grip her thigh more.

"Make me jealous?" Keigo let out a harsh chuckle, it didn't sound like his normal go-happy-cute laugh, no. This one sounded empty, and filled with anger. It made a shiver run up and down her spine. "Baby bird, I'm not jealous. I'm pissed." She looked confused but when he started attacking her neck with his lips, she moaned out his name, making him dig his nails into her thigh.

"You let another man put his hands on you. Someone that wasn't me." He growled out in her ear, his left hand squeezing her neck tighter. Going back to bitting her neck, when he heard her moan loud when he reached her sweet spot, he stopped and abused it with all his power.

"What are you...talking about?" Y/n fluttered her eyes shut at his actions, confused on why he would be acting this way. She wanted to keep the innocent act up, finding it kind of funny. Mirko had wanted them to get together in the last three years they have known each other. When in reality they have been doing things like this for three months now.

Keigo used his strength to push her harder to the wall, a small gasp left her lips. "Dont." He unclipped his belt, along with his pants button and zipper, he grabbed her hand and put it in his pants, letting her feel how hard he was for her. "You don't get the right to act innocent right now." He groaned when he felt her rub him, enjoying the feeling of it.

Y/n felt the pit on her stomach grow by the second, wanting to tear his clothes off and let him have her. "I'm not acting, I really don't know what I did wrong." She looked over at Keigo, his eyes darkened, that they almost looked black. He stopped her actions, silently hating it. Y/n tilted her head confused on why he did that. Only for him to drop to his knees.

He lifted her skirt up a bit, seeing her black panties were drenched, "really baby bird?" He looked up at her skeptically, as y/n squirmed when she felt his fingers dance on the material that barely covered her needy area. She had wished she had something to hold onto when he kissed her thighs, leaving open mouthed kisses on her inner thighs slowly edging to her needy core. A loud gasp left her throat when she felt his tongue on her cl*t, a sharp scream when he inserted his fingers. "You mean to tell me...you didn't do anything wrong?" He mumbled against her area.

"Yeah." She could physically hear him roll his eyes at the sound of her soft giggle. She felt herself clamp around him, only for him to pull his finger out, making her whimper at the loss of contact she had with him.

"Why don't I believe you." He glared at her, kissing her hard, letting her taste herself on his lips, while she was distracted, he slammed himself into her, his left hand coming back to her neck. Her moans and his groan was muffled by their lips. "You really expect me to believe that songbird?" He hissed when she touched his wings, knowing how sensitive they were. He brought Her thigh up to his waist once again. Desperate to hit her deeper.

Y/n moved from his wings to his shoulders, needing to grip onto something, as his hips pounded into hers. "Its true~" Y/n barely managed to say that, already forgetting the whole English language, any language at that, the only thing she remembered was his name. So that's what she kept screaming out as his thrust became harder.

His lips went back to her neck, wanting to leave visible marks that she was his, as y/n scratched his back up, almost looking like he had gotten in a fight with a cat. "Keigo! Im...c-close~" she moaned in his ear, making him speed up his thrusts, she could feel herself clamp around him, wanting to finish. Y/n felt the pit in her stomach fade as she reached her high from him.

Keigo kept thrusting into her, desperately chasing after his own climax. Her thighs and hips started to ache in pain from how hard and fast he was going, but his moans and grunts that escaped his throat and collided with her ears made her almost faint in ecstasy. Y/n opened her eyes in time to see his wings flap behind him and flutter as he finished, every time they did it, that was her second favorite thing seeing them flutter to let her know he's done.

"That was--" she stopped when Keigo pulled out of her, fixing how he looks and how she looks, trying to look normal.

"Just wait till we get home song bird." He picked her up and winked at her fearful face, knowing damn well what always comes after that sentence.

NOTE:

I had to have one of my friends write the smut because well, it makes me awkward and cringe.

Also again, thank you amadis_v for the inspiration to write this, hopefully it came out kind of like you imagined. ♡

Sci-fi/Dystopian future/Danger Days/idk

Heaven’s Not About Your Reputation - Desolation Row AU. The Tipper Laws have consumed the nation; more and more freedoms are being restricted every day. After getting thrown in jail for causing a riot with their illegal punk show, My Chem decides to do the logical thing: cause even more trouble. 28k

In Repair - "Shit,“ Frank mutters, and shoves both hands through his hair. He looks around the kitchen like he’s gonna find what he should do scratched into the old linoleum, then looks back at the bot. He gnaws on his lip. Fuck it. He already knows what he’s gonna do. He’s just gotta do it.

Getting down on his knees, he braces a hand on the edge of the crate and leans over the bot. It’s dressed in a plain white tee and matching drawstring pants like an escaped mental patient. Frank rolls his neck and cracks his knuckles, shaking the ache out of them before carefully laying his palm against its cheek. He’s pretty sure his voice is steady when he says, "Activate.”

Nothing happens. Fucking shitty packaging– the thing’s busted. But Frank keeps his hand where it is, jumping a little when he feels the surge of energy beneath it. The robot’s skin goes from room temperature to lukewarm, then warm. Frank watches it open its eyes, the light behind them adjusting until they’re a pale sort of brown. It looks at him and asks, “Am I dead?” 33k

sing it for the n00bs - Gerard would be killing twice as many dracs right now if his fucking spacebar would quit sticking. (Gamer AU, wherein the Danger Days universe is an MMORPG.) 17k

I was rereading this on a bus in France with my stepsister. She asked me what I was reading and I just squirmed around in my seat. So she shouted “FANFICTION??” And I was like … Well, I mean, yes–but hear me out!! And so I told her about Danger Days, the Killjoys and the whole gamer au concept.

She actually thought it sounded pretty cool. Or maybe she just wanted me to quit gushing about it and leave her alone.

The point is, if someone who just heard a second-rate description of this fic still thought it sounded interesting, that means it’s HELLA RAD. And it is. So. Read it.

The Way They Fly - Frank is a robot. He is in love with his genius creator, Gerard, who doesn’t realize that Frank is capable of real feelings. Frank starts breaking down, getting ill, and Gerard doesn’t know what to do to fix it - all his methods are completely useless, none of the programming explains why this is happening to his Frank - but it’s because Frank has a broken heart. 17k

Of Another Kind - Gerard is an alien on a mission–to find a human mate on Earth. He’s decided on Frank Iero, but his database doesn’t give him all the facts he needs to win over his future companion, and there are just some things he will have to learn on his own. 17k

Let The Darkness Lead You Home - Vampires are in charge and most of the humans on earth are prey, so Frank Iero’s parents have him train as a cyber tech to protect him. Leaving the family he’s born into may have saved his life, but his parents never could have expected the lengths he’d go to in order to find a new family to call home. 49k

The Chasing of Moons - The biggest dilemma in all of this is that Frank slept with his future husband. Now Frank’s just got to make sure that the future with him stays intact, but it’s not so easy when present day Gerard seems to hate his guts. 110k

Might I Have a Bit of Earth - Gerard took things. He didn’t used to take things; he used to ask before, say please and may I and other things his parents taught him, because that was what you did. You didn’t just take. 14k

Space pirates :D !!

Are You Broken? (from the Robot!Gerard series) - Frank gets sick and Gerard doesn’t understand. <1k (the series is 7k)

Lovely Way to Burn - Frank is no stranger to sickness. He’s been wheezing his way in and out of hospitals since he was a kid, but things are different now. He was already pulled from two assignments due to illness, and the third time is the charm. Three strikes and you’re out. 4k

video girl - This is a space AU that has more random worldbuilding than actual porn in it. In which Frank wanders into a virtual sex video booth. 1k

Reaching Through The Mirror - The one where Party Poison and Basement!Gerard have sex. 5k

(part one of Time Travel ‘verse)

James Cameron Got It Wrong - In which 2005!Frank and Fun Ghoul get it on. Then Frank accidentally winds up in 2019. 56k

(part two of Time Travel ‘verse)

yoooo i just found some really really REALLY good fanart. .. unbelievably good. and six years after the fic came out! that’s amazing!! anyway, here it is.

EDIT #2: found some more! Man, that fic just keeps giving.

EDIT #3: Damn it, the artist’s blog (second one) is marked as having “sensitive content”, so I couldn’t view it anymore on this account. So here is the post reblogged on a sfw blog for y’all youngins, and here is a screenshot juuust in case the sfw blog deactivates and that link stops working, too. 

The Science of Sleep - It’s 2011 and Frank Iero’s life is pretty average until the night where he starts getting dreams about a strange, apocalyptic California where there’s rayguns, grey corporations and terrorists who use art and color as a weapon. Interesting and fun at first, but the more he dreams about this world, the more he starts to wonder if it really is a dream… and the deeper he gets into this futuristic world, the more it seems to affect his life in the present day.

And just how exactly does everything all seem to link in with that douchebag black-haired artist who sits in Starbucks every day?

(Set in the Danger Days world but not necessarily following the cannon established by the album and music video’s.) 93k

Killjoys Never Die - No description. 2k

i want to die i want to die i want to die

Up Against Your Will (HERE is the chapter index) - Stepping into a world so different from their own, Frank and Gerard struggle to survive. 18 chapters

this was amazing, but also hard to read in some parts, bc of the non con and gore :/ not my cup of tea, but I did love the word building and the fic overall.

Fogs, Sheets and Thunder - Not as grey as it seems. A post-apocalyptic postal service AU. 5k

And ze art!

​The World Famous Extraterrestial Diner - Sure the menu had a picture of literally everything in it, causing the menu itself to be ten pages in total, but that was for the foreign visitors. And not just the ones from other countries, according to the owners.Gerard worked at a diner located directly on the famous ‘extraterrestrial highway’. The pictures were more for if any actual aliens ever came by Earth for a good meal and couldn’t speak English. They had the pictures to see exactly what was on offer. Even the beverages had their own separate pictures.Not that they had had any extraterrestial visitors since, like, ever. 8k

Born to Motorbabies - Here's the thing with having a crush on a mysterious DJ; it's kind of an inconvenient place to hang your affections. 12k

Workplace Appropriate Attire - Korse is a creepy boyfriend. 1k

Ship: Party Poison/Korse

This was fun to read, but some lines made me go OH SHIT, because ...... well if you read this you will know what I’m talking about.

We Got Machines - There are questions on the lips of everyone with eyes or money on the arena. Who is this kid? Where’d he come from? Who trained him? BLind’s got no records on him, meaning he’s a Zonebrat returning to the grasp of the city of his own volition. Another anomaly. That a 16 year old nobody could waltz in out of nowhere and turn the system on its head is... concerning to BLind. <1k

A Room Full Of Suicides - His jaw was clenched and his whole body quivering. He looked right at Korse with those huge, transparent eyes. “Do what you want to me.

[thatothercosplayer]

Ikura rolled her neck. It was time to head in. “Alright, ladies. Let’s do this.”

The four pushed their way inside, and quickly found themselves surrounded by....well, AKB48 stuff. The wall with all the portraits of the current members was closeby, as was the front desk.

“Place sure looks spiffy,” Keiko noted, rather impressed. The oak and velvet carpets was....surprising, honestly. She was expecting more...pastels. 

They could hear someone performing from where they were standing. They all exchanged glances, and nodded.

Going over to the doors that led to the theater, they stopped.

Up on stage was a young woman- probably no older than Hikaru- who had chestnut brown hair. Her eyes were pretty distinctly black, and she yellow lipstick on. It matched the rest of her outfit, which was a gold akin to honey. She was wearing fake bee wings that looked....pretty realistic, all things considered.

“That’s her?” Yuna asked. “From the name I was expecting someone a bit, uh....older.” 

“Whatever! She is perverting music for her own selfish gains! I can’t allow that!” Hikaru huffed. “Hey, lady!” She shouted.

Vesper stopped on stage, and looked at Hikaru. All the entranced civilians also looked back. “Did you seriously just interrupt my performance? I just can’t bee-lieve it!” 

Keiko groaned, rubbing the bridge of her nose at that pun.

Hikaru ran up front, going up onto stage. “I don’t appreciate what you’re doing!”

“And what would that bee, huh?” Vesper asked. 

“You know exactly what it is!” Hikaru retorted, resting her hands on her hips. “Forcing your music onto others, not giving people a chance to form their own thoughts about it.....unforgivable! Music is expression! It’s not some agenda you can just push onto people!” 

Vesper laughed. “Okay? What are you going to do about it?” 

Hikaru stuck her lower lip out, puffing her cheeks. She held up her left arm, which held a bracelet with a small gem in it. She pressed upon the inlaid jewel. Her image shimmered and rippled before shattering like glass, revealing her true Raptoroid form. 

Immediately, she threw herself at Vesper, who gracefully sidestepped, looking fabulous at the same time. 

“You’ll never bee on the same level as me, honey. Fighting is for brutes!” 

Hikaru rested her talons on her hips. “Really, now? Well, in that case...” She turned to the others, who had just been kind of....watching. “Hey! Everyone! Let’s show her what we can do!” 

Tapping the bracelet on her wrist, Hikaru returned to her human form and joined up with the others again. She counted everyone, then frowned. “We’re....short a person. Who are we going to pick....?” 

Suddenly, a voice called out from one of the balconies in the theater! 

“That would be me!” A spotlight focused on where the voice had come from, revealing a masked woman with mid-length brown hair. She was wearing a Sailor Senshi cosplay, but...it wasn’t of any of the actual characters, as her uniform was pink. She had on a matching mask. “Do not worry! Sailor K is here!” 

Who was this?

Sailor K leapt down onto the stage, joining the rest of the Secret Base Cafe Crew. “With me you have enough people to do the routine you want to do, Hikaru!” She smiled. 

Hikaru, while a bit confused, nodded, smiling back. “Yuna! Can you lead the dance for us?” She asked.

“Yeah!” Yuna nodded, directing everyone into formation. 

Ikura smirked. “DJ, if you would so kindly~” She clapped her hands twice, and music began to play.

Hikaru sang, and the rest followed Yuna’s lead. Ikura and Sailor K, despite not seeming it, were rather professional, arguably having the best timing out of the five.

As the song continued, something began to happen. Energy began to crackle through the air.

“W-what?! What’s happening?!” Vesper shouted out, looking around frantically.

Hikaru couldn’t but smirk at this. 

Mic Check One Two! Kono koe ga Mic Check One Two! Kikoeteru ka Mic Check One Two!

Kotae ga YES nara sakenjatte! 

Mic Check One Two! Kareru made Mic Check One Two! Dashi tsuku shite Mic Check One Two!

Kotae wa YES desho? Wakattenda

The audience, while at first entranced by Vesper’s magic, began to awaken, and catching onto what was going on and grabbing glowsticks and wotaing pretty hard. 

“What?! No! They’re my audience! Mine!” Vesper was beginning to throw a fit as the Secret Base Cafe Crew (plus Sailor K) began dancing Akibahara to freedom.

When the song finished, some pyrotechnics fired off, throwing glitter everywhere, as well and causing a small explosion behind them.

Sailor K twirled away from the group, grabbing onto a weight off the side of the stage. “My work here is done! But, before I go....”  Withdrawing a rose, she tossed it to Ikura, who caught it. “Until next time, ladies! I believe in you!” She slashed the  weight and rode the rope up into the rafters, disappearing. 

Vesper was in the middle of a break down. “No, no, no, no, no! My music is the best! No one is allowed to be better than me! NO ONE! I’m the Queen Bee! Not you! ME!” She stomped repeatedly. 

“Don’t you understand, now, Miss Vesper?” Hikaru inquired. “There’s no point in music if you don’t put your heart into it! That’s why you lost!” She declared, pointing dramatically. The audience cheered in agreement with the beautiful lady on stage. 

Vesper clenched her fist. “Grrr....why....you!!! That’s it! I’ve had enough of this!”

She began twitching, limbs snapping here and there as various insect parts burst through her skin. 

Compound eyes had formed on her forehead, above her ‘human’ ones. Mandibles were hanging off either side of her mouth. Two extra arms had come out of her. A bee’s abdomen had burst out from her lower back, hanging out right above her butt. She was beginning to look like she had jumped out of Monster Musume, or something.

“I’m gonna kill all four of you! There can only be one queen, and that’s ME!” 

“Everyone, scatter!” Ikura shouted, and the four dived out of the way as Vesper began flying at them. 

They got up, and quite suddenly, they were in a rock quarry with no forseeable explanation.

Ikura fixed her hair, then pointed at Vesper, who was looking around in confusion. How had this happened? 

“You! Hikaru already said it, but music is an expression of one’s soul! Perverting it for your own selfish gains.....that’s unforgivable! Everyone, let’s go!” 

“Yeah!” Cried out the other three. 

Ikura crosses her arms, then thrusts them outwards. “Chou kenzoku henka!”

And, just like that, the Armored Avenger has appeared! In .0384 seconds, the Japanium armor has covered Ikura, transforming her into the cool hero that fights evil in the name of love! 

The transformation was so fast, however, we didn’t see what happened. Let’s take a closer look.

Ikura crosses her arms and then thrusts them outwards. “Chou kenzoku henka!”

A satellite dish on top of the Secret Base Cafe fires out a beam that’s reflected up into the atmosphere, which is then reflected off another satellite before it hits Ikura, sending out a small shockwave as she is enveloped in energy. The armor forms, the tech across it lighting up as different parts whir and settle into place, letting out firm ‘kachunks’ when they lock in.

“Armored Avenger…Kyusha!” 

Keiko dug her feet into the ground, clasping her hands together before splitting them, raising one skywards while she brought the other one closer to the ground.

Moving them in diagonally then clasping her hands together again so her hands invoked the image of a lightning bolt, Keiko’s eyes briefly flashed.

“Kurakunaru!”

In an instant, a ring of violet flames developed around her, towering higher and higher before converging on her. A bolt of lightning struck her, and the flames turned monochrome before exploding outwards. Intricate patterns swirled as the area behind her darkened, flames kicking up as the eyes on the helmet lit up to become their signature piercing crimson. “ I am the spirit of vengeance! Dark Paladin!”

Yuna withdrew her katana, unsheathing it and drawing a circle above her head. The Soul Metal armor flew out, latching onto her and transforming her into the Knight of the Lilacs, YUGO.

Hikaru just did what she had done earlier and revealed her true alien form.

Kyusha threw a hand up in the air. 

“Shining in the heavens are four stars!”

The four lined up, kicking upwards and posing. “Secret Base Cafe Offensive Squadron!” 

Colored explosions go off behind them, colored red, violet, black, and gold respectively. 

Vesper scoffs. “Lame! Go get them, my loyal fans!”

Quite suddenly, the Wotajaegers appeared, brandishing their neon weapons and chanting their usual chants. “Cyber! Fire! Tiger! Wotagei, wotagei, wotagei!” 

Kyusha withdrew Starcrusher from one of the slots on her shoulders, Dark Paladin withdrew Hellfang from her spine, and YUGO merely readied her broadsword. Hikaru raised her talons, ready to fight.

The four charged into the crowd of grunts, beginning the battle.

Kyusha roundhoused one Wotajaeger, turning and slashing another across the chest twice. One grabbed her from behind, and she grappled with it before tossing it into another one. “Neurevolver!” She called. A slot on the side of her right leg opened, and she swapped Starcrusher to her left hand. The blaster fired out, and she caught it, kneeling and using the laser blade as a steady for her aim as she fired at several grunts, who were tossed backwards as the shots hit them, sparks raining everywhere.

Meanwhile, Dark Paladin was beating her way through the grunts. She snatched one by the throat, slamming it into the ground. Another grunt tried to sneak up behind her, but she reversed Hellfang and impaled it through the waist without looking. Withdrawing the weapon, she raised a hand and fired out electrical energy from it, shocking multiple grunts. 

YUGO was busy with her own crowd of grunts. She parried the neon blade of one, slicing it down the middle before turning and disarming another one after a blade lock. She kicked it away, stabbing the tip of the blade into the gut of another grunt and hoisting it over head before tossing it at a group of Wotajaegers, bowling them all over. 

Finally, she made one, large circular slash, finishing all of hers off in one blow.

Hikaru swooped down, grabbing a grunt with her feet and tearing at them with her talons. She dropped them, dumping them into a horde of other grunts who got crushed under its weight. She made a pass at them, flying low and slashing each one she passed, tossing them out of the way. Coming back down, she did a bicycle kick on another grunt, before grabbing their head in between her ankles and ripping it off. 

She landed right as the horde of grunts all fell over and exploded in unison.

“W-what!? You defeated them?!” Vesper called out.

“Fine! I’ll just...take care of you myself!” She began to twist and snap even more this time, shedding all resemblance of being human and turning into a horrible, giant bee monster!

Nah, just kidding. It looks like this.

“Oh, fuck this!” Ikura is noping out so hard. “Change Gamma!” 

In a flash of energy, the crimson armor of Kyusha had shifted to a slimmer, lightly armored form. This was Mode Gamma, which Ikura was swapping to because holyshititsagiantfuckingbeethingohmygod

Dark Paladin looks over and completely agrees with this sentiment. Keeping out Hellfang, she shoves a hand into her chest (approximately where her heart is) and begins withdrawing a second sword- the Dark Kaiser. At the same time, violet flames begin engulfing her, twisting the armor even further into the Hell Knight.

YUGO and Hikaru just kind of shrug.

Vesper roars and charges at the group, knocking them over on her first pass. She raises her sharp legs, meaning to slash everyone on the second go, and hones in on Hikaru in particular.

Hikaru isn’t having any of that, so she takes to the sky, leading to massive chase. Vesper begins firing hordes of stingers out at the Raptoroid, which begin honing in on her. The stingers spiral around in the air, leaving behind trails as they intricately weave their way towards Hikaru. She begins deftly dodging them, recklessly flying through them and forcing the stingers to crash into each other.

“Hey, you know what an Itano Circus is?” Kyusha asks, looking up.

“Yeah. First time I’ve ever seen one, though,” Hell Knight retorts. 

Hikaru angles back towards the ground and joins the others again, skidding to a halt. 

“You done hogging all the attention yet?” Hell Knight snarked.

“Well, you know, you could have done something other than, I dunno, stood there and watched!” Hikaru shouted.

“Right, right. Let’s get her!” Kyusha declared, speeding off and kicking off the ground. She lands atop Vesper’s head and grabs her antennae, riding her like a bucking bull. “Come on, you ugly bitch! Let’s go to the rodeo!” 

Hell Knight shakes her head, taking several steps forwards. This fight has gotten kind of easy. The whole ‘hulking out into an oversized monster form’ thing was something they’d fought against before.

Crossing Hellfang and Dark Kaiser, she fired an arc of energy into the forehead gem on Vesper, which lit her up like Tokyo at night. Kyusha leaped off, 

YUGO charged forwards, leaping up into the air and stabbing her broadsword into it, hitting the giant enemy bee’s weak point for massive damage. 

“Hikaru!” Kyusha shouted. “Let’s do a combo attack!” 

Hikaru nodded. “Okay!” 

Kyusha leapt up into the air, Hikaru flying up around her in a spiral. Kyusha caught Hikaru with one arm, whirling her about several times before tossing her at Vesper at high velocity. Hikaru began doing lots and lots of Aileron Rolls, before curling her wings up and holding her arms out so she formed a massive drill. 

“Green Gold Combination!” They both cried out. “Hurricane Overdrive!” 

She rocketed forwards, tearing through Vesper and snatching YUGO’s sword while she was at it.

She went in through the head, tearing through Vesper’s body before emerging out of the abdomen, arcing upwards and unfurling her wings dramatically, the sun reflect off her metallic wings in juuuust the right way to give her a bit of an angelic image. 

“RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAUAUUUUUGH!” Screeched out Vesper, who exploded, leaving nothing behind. 

The extermination was complete.

Returning to the theater, everyone saw that, thankfully, the people who had been hypnotized had fully recovered at this point. While initially confused at where they were, they recognized the Secret Base Cafe Crew when they saw them and began cheering and clapping.

Yuna and Hikaru bowed, smiling, while Keiko just waved. 

Ikura....Ikura was busy staring at the rose she’d gotten from Sailor K. Just who was she? How did she know all their names? Why give her the rose?

These questions would have to wait- at least for now. Akibahara was safe again.

Well, at least until the next monster decided to show up.
