Murasaki spends some time mulling her options over. "Hm... I think I'd like this."

She places her fistful of yen down and takes a Custom Magic snippet. "I would like to empower myself or the others."

Lo and behold, the custom snippet fills in according to her desire.

"Oh, the Heart of Fiery Passion! Now there’s a spell that might give the wrong idea… or the right idea!" Emoticat ‘jokes.’

Mrs. Emoticat


The Mrs. does not approve. "Our daughter’s not even born yet, and already you’re making dad jokes?"

Lacey isn't completely convinced by Poxy's lesson in gang psychology. Hoping capos would handle her dirty work was like hoping unsupervised kindergartners would behave.

But what's done is done. If Belcher rises from his metaphorical pit of humiliation and seeks vengeance, next time she will kill him....

Now she turns to the Emoticat couple, smiling fondly at them both.

"I see you've been layin' the pipe, Mr. Emoticat. I hope your little Emotikitty...Emotikittens?...turns out to be a lovable bundle of joy, with just the right amount of rebelliousness!"

She then ponders her upgrade options carefully. The Bombshells had been doing pretty well...but they could always do better!

"You know, Murasaki, your physical prowess is impressive. I've tried to mimic some of your moves, but I'm still more artillery than infantry. But maybe we can combine our strengths into one mega-awesome attack! With your consent, of course."
OOC:
I'm thinking of something akin to the ol' Fastball Special, where Colossus tossed Wolverine. Lacey would use a device or some magical tool to launch Murasaki, who would crash into enemies like a ninja meteor! It would do huge damage, and also empower Murasaki's next actions(s).

"Layin’ the whaaaaaa?" Emoticat blushes and gets right to business.

"Teamwork makes the dream work! I love it! And whatever you’re dreaming up sounds magical!" Emoticat points to the Custom Magic snippet, and adds, "Custom Magical, nya?"
OOC:
Sounds like a move that works as a Custom Magic type. Since it eats girl power, it should do something even on a mission.

My thought is:
• MISS - launch a friend, but she zings past the foe. (She can still hit with her own attack.)
• HIT - launch a friend, she clobbers the foe.
• COMBO - launch a friend, her impact is explosive! (AoE + friend’s attack enhanced)

It could work on Gong-Ju, too.

OOC:
Works for me! As long as my teammates don't mind getting catapulted.

What about a super-combo? Maybe it stuns, in addition to the already-listed combo effect?

OOC:
I won’t mess with guaranteed Super effects yet. The Lv.6-9 shop will offer something along those lines.

That said, the combo effect could just be vaguely written as "an explosive impact" with the actual effect fitting the situation. Example - Vs. a mob of one-hit-wonders, KO several mobsters. Vs. a single target, a stun *might* be appropriate, or a nerfed attack, if it feels too easy to just shut the big-bad down. (Especially since you’ll all eventually have Defender, which is meant to shut down powerful vs.-party attacks… if you’re lucky.)

"I'd be honored, O'hara-san. Our foes tomorrow will not know what hit them."

"I shall purchase something to protect our group," Gong-Ju says, picking the Defender snippet. "Gamsahabnida, Emoticat!"

"Okay, ladies! It’s been a pleasure doing business!"

Mrs. Emoticat says, "I’ll be rootin’ for ya, nya!"

OOC:

"Thank you, miss. The support of you and your husband is invaluable." Murasaki respectfully bows her head.

She looks to her teammates. "What shall we do? Should we go back to our hotel room and rest for tomorrow? Or stay a little while longer?" She asks. She thought they'd be thrown out after taking out Belcher and his team, but she doesn't see any guards rushing up to them yet.

"The responsible thing is to get some rest...but the devil on my shoulder says to hell with responsibility! Let's drink up, dance, flirt dangerously with these oligarchs!"

Yelling loudly: "Put on some music! Let's get moving!"

Hopefully some music begins playing. If not, Lacey will still dance, and ignore all the stares!

She holds out her hand towards Murasaki and tilts her head to a nearby open area, or a dance floor if this place has such a thing.

"Shall we dance, milady? But please don't step on my feet. With your power, my poor toes would get broken like twigs!"

[ +- ] ? Dance of Pales
When Lacey demands music, the piano player gladly complies.

Hujo immediately starts to dance!

Poxy groans. "Hujo..?"

https://i.imgur.com/tQfI1Hm.jpeg

"Careful, Pox," Hujo says as he freezes mid-Travolta. "I wanna bust moves, not you… uh, whom I would only bust accidentally."

Pox looks up at the big oaf. "I know ya’d never hurt me. Even if Belcher ordered ya to. And ya won’t hurt me by accident if ya dance slow."

Hujo does his dance super-slowly, but Poxy stops him with a gentle touch.

https://i.imgur.com/wI5CYs7.png"Ya big goof… the pianist is playing a waltz."

The two begin to dance like an awkward couple, but they’re also considerate, leaving space on the dance floor for other pairs…

"I promise not to step on your toes, but that is all I can guarantee. I've never danced before." Murasaki rises out of Belcher's wheelchair and takes Lacey's hand.

On the dance floor, she lets Lacey set the pace, following along as well as she can while taking care not to crush Lacey's feet. She's initially unsure in her steps, but as she subtly analyzes Pox, Hujo, and other pairs that gradually make their way onto the floor, her moves become more confident.

Gong-Ju hangs back, watching the others dancing with a wistful smile.
