Lecture 13: Welcome to my Kingdom

[doctor_tyrant]

[The Doctor has experienced quite a haul for Christmas. Not only did he get what appeared to look like a stone throne, he also received just the thing he needed to speed up his base's construction: a digger battle robot. It seemed to respond to his command just fine. Perhaps it was just as susceptible to the Demon Crown's power which, admittedly,

[Making sure Tieria didn't see where she was going, Hiling walks down the street to her neighbor's house. She wanders the underground, rather impressed with the size of it until she reaches her destination. Her progress is rather slow, impeded by her injuries from the other day.] This must be the place.

[doctor_tyrant]

... Oh, my. Are you injured, Hiling?

[Despite wanting to become a tyrant, he is still a doctor. The man has to care for his teammates as long as they're willing to work for him. He leans over closer from his throne to get a better look at the girl from across the room.]

[prideinbattle]

[She looks down at the ground. She was never a good sport about losing. As much as she would rather ignore her injuries, this human body just isn't healing as quickly as she would like. She nods.]

I was fighting this guy in armor and I could have beat him, but then my mobile suit disappeared and he hurt me.

[doctor_tyrant]

... A shame. To think that technical difficulties on the part of this town helped with your defeat.

[The wounds didn't look too severe. It wasn't as if she needed an operation or such, although that would have been preferable for the Doctor.]

Well, you're free to rest as much as you'd like. This is our base, after all.

[prideinbattle]

I'll get him next time.

[It's just an inconvenience at the moment. She plans to take it easy for a while before she goes at it again.] What's going on down here anyway?

[doctor_tyrant]

Here? Why... This is our new base of operations.

[He extends his arms and brings it around him in the air, showing Hiling that everything she sees? Is most definitely a part of the base. A part of their "new home".]

It's still under construction, but now the heart of our base has been constructed, I thought I should invite you all.

[comfortyou]

[She likes what she sees.]

This is nice. I had no idea you could build things like this here. You know what, there should be big couches. That's what our base back home had and I think it adds a nice touch.

[doctor_tyrant]

I agree, I agree! Perhaps I'll bring over the one in my house. It doesn't seem like anybody there has much use for the one we have anytime soon.

Admittedly, as nice as this throne is... it's quite uncomfortable.

[He knocks at the armrest and it is quite hard. The stone it's made out of, while softer than most, is still harder than cushions certainly would be.]

[prideinbattle]

It would probably attract too many questions if I tried to take one of ours.

[It certainly does look impressive, but she wouldn't want to sit on stone for any extended time either.]

[doctor_tyrant]

Oh, well that's a shame. Certainly, we'd probably be better off without the intrusion. But it would be nice to make this place as comfortable as it possibly can to all of my friends.

I do have to restock on the emergency supplies. The Hospital is easily friendly towards those needs.

[prideinbattle]

You must be getting ready for something big.

[She's definitely excited, whatever it is. Especially if it involves something she can do to help with her mobile suit.]

[doctor_tyrant]

I was unable to provide for you, my friends, in the previous year. But rest assured, it is this year when we will all rise to the surface.

Yes. I feel the winds of progress upon us.

[prideinbattle]

I like the sound of that. And I get to be a part of it, right?

[doctor_tyrant]

Of course. And there shouldn't be any interference from the town this time. You may get to use your robot as you see fit!

[prideinbattle]

I want to show you what I can really do! Oh, and I talked to another mobile suit pilot, Nena Trinity, and she said she'd be willing to work with us. No one stands a chance against the both of us!

[doctor_tyrant]

[Oh. Two mobile suit pilots... that would mean that this other girl, Nena, possesses her own giant robot as well. While having one is fearsome enough, having two might present devastating results towards anybody that might stand against him. The Doctor smiles, not hiding his exaltation at the destructive potentials.]

... Oh. I would prefer to speak with Nena myself, but with your recommendation, I don't see why I would ever refuse. The town is put a playground with all manners of games to be found. Likewise, neither of us want to lose at those games.

If there's another that would want to help with our ultimate victory, then by all means, I would give my permission to allow her into our KINGDOM.
