What A Lonely Existence..

@eclipse83

<Clip wasn't aware of Eclipse's inner thoughts and 5 minutes passed in amicable silence>

<The nanomachines then stopped working and a fully functioning, yet inactive, chamber had materialized.>

<Clip briefly inspected the machine and, deeming it up to standard, looked to Eclipse>

Are you ready?

Previously:

<Clip, Eclipse Unit-2, nodded a vaguely surprised affirmative at @starlightsecuritypuppet-ssp>

Yes? Why--

<But before anyone could react, a powerful blast of dark energy threw all who weren't secured backwards. @insults-by-sun was knocked into @eclipse83, and Clip was flung against a jagged wall, making his already twice-weakened body screech in protest>

You.

What did you DO TO ME!

<The corrupted Sun was once again awake and scrambling for the usb at the back of his head plate in Starlight's binds. It was anyone's hope that they would hold for 10 more minutes. Just 10 more minutes...>

Sassy.

E., amused.

Very sassy!

I mean. I am no scientist but given what I have l learned and experienced recently "Impossible" seems much smaller than it used to be.

You developed a means to punch holes between realities out of what mostly appeared to be boredom, Eclipse. Within weeks. So forgive me if I thought that something else completely insane like that was within your abilities.

-SSP

Heh. I'm flattered you think I could make a portal in only a few weeks. But that portals represents months of work.

Sure. Exploring a blackhole might not be entirely impossible. But it'll most certainly take a bit longer than the portal.

It's so boring in the house when in Eclipse is gone!

And he still doesn't want me to move around too much...

It was just a nightmare.. All I did was scorch the couch a little!

It sure gets lonely out here..

I'm mostly just talking to myself, and the stars.

I wonder if I should try my hand at poetry or something?

...

I miss my cats

I found the pods!

And one of them -- just one! -- is still in working order!

Stars, but.. is this little thing strong enough to weather the space storms around this planet ?

I really wish Eclipse was here to give me advice.

You know what? I'm going for it. I'm just.. I'm going for it!

Wish me luck!

Hmm, that should do it.

The finishing touches~

Now, Sun will be able to insert the sigils to power up this masterpiece and reveal the fruit of our... mutual labour.

Wonderful.

I should upgrade his entire body to match, someday.

But an arm will do for now.

<Eclipse hummed to the music as he did the last of his tinkering, and caressed the finished product lovingly, pressing a kiss to the fingertips for good luck>

I wish he was here...

Not Sun

The other one...

He spoke to me so gently.

I --

Oh, Eclipse is back? -- with my new arm!

Oh wow. It feels different..

My star, it is different.

Here, look inside.

What are those?

Sigil slots, dear.

Just carve your sigils in here and you can mathematically .-.. matharcanely?- conjure up existing spells and create new spells on the go.

Precision and all that.

.... this feels like cheating, 'Clipse..

Whatever keeps you safe, my star.

Now come, I have to install it on you.

<Clip came in, guns blazing as his face twisted in pain. He was aiming at his beloved, and that was more than he could bear. But the corrupted Sun was taking minimal damage and seemed infernally enraged. It hadn't noticed the ambush awaiting it.>

You are not my Sun!

I am taking you down with me if I have to!

Even if it means killing.. him.

<Ofcourse, he was made aware of the plan and it was thus merely an act. Clip exchanged a covert glance with Sun², Starlight and Eclipse when the corrupted Sun wasn't paying attention. It was go time.>

@insults-by-sun

Damn it...

That Sun is dangerous. He managed to stop me from blacklisting their dimension and messed with something in my head.

He only left me alone because he believes the other Eclipse and Sun are my enemies.

He has magic. I don't know how effective your usual means of incapacitating animatronics will be against him. And how willing you'll be to damage him knowing Sun is still inside that body.

- @eclipse83

@eclipse83 I will engage Rouge Unit. Sun-2 unlikely to expect attack from you. While Sun-2 is engaged use whatever means necessary to incapacitate Rouge Unit. Anything short of damage to central processor can be repaired. Preventing damages to SSP-1 Unit is not a priority. Do not hesitate.
