The Great Catsby
and the
Case of the Mysterious Mr. Smiley
Since the expulsion of the notorious Jack Noir from the Tranquility, the precocious lady detective had settled into the lull of an ordinary life of space ships, demons, and hallucinogenic gas. Nope, nothing out of the ordinary there!
But amidst all the the trials of every day life, something else lurked in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. A mysterious force only known as :). For more practical purposes, The Great Catsby referred to him as Mr. Smiley in her mind.
The whole ship was rocked by Mr. Smiley's unnerving appearance. Fear crept up the spines of many. A sense of rebellion was sparked in the hearts of the bold. There were those on board the ship that had taken down dark kings, those who fought against forces that other passengers could never fathom, and all aboard had very good reason to be wary. And yet... power and intimidation was not an immediate mark for malevolence. Derse dreamers knew this well. The creatures in the Furthest Ring had whispered to them in their sleep. They would stare down at the dreamers and the dead from the infinite space outside any universe. Despite their terrifying appearance, their whispers were not threats, but requests for help. Some players even considered these Outer Gods to be benevolent.
Or so said Ms. Leijon, an informant of the Great Catsby.
However, being a proper detective, the Catsby would need some hard evidence to confirm that Mr. Smiley was indeed something similar to the Horrorterrors of the Furthest Ring or if it was something far worse.
It was time for her to summon a team that could take on the unknown. They gathered in a secret room in the Tranquility. Not even Mr. Smiley knew where it was. That's how secret it is.
"I've picked apart the list," said SH, sipping his formaldehyde, "and I am very offended that I didn't make the cut. What ever happened to standards?"
"Here here," agreed Sherlock Holmes. Somewhere aboard the ship, Mr. Watson was having a migraine.
"The more you anger it, the more you jeopardize the rest of us," growled Thor. Neither Mr. Holmes nor SH seemed that concerned about angering such a mighty and valuable warrior, a sadly common folly in the sleuthing profession. Catsby herself sat and the head of the table and hushed the two detective types.
However, tensions did not diminish. Magneto paced along the table. "Which is why we need now more than ever to prepare ourselves for an inevitable conflict," he said.
"And who do you propose to lead? You?" interjected Robb Stark Lord of Winterfell.
"Obvviously not," scoffed Eridan. "I'm the one wwith all the tactical military knowledge!"
Robb's frown deepened. "That's hardly the same thing as having battlefield experience."
"Hey havve you evver shot a fuckin angel? Because I havve. I'vve slayed like a hundred of those things and let me tell you they are fuckin fast and angry as hell wwhen you start shooting at them."
"Were they angry before or after you started hunting them?" Bran asked. Eridan ignored the very valid question.
"Like I was sayin I'vve got strategy and experience killin mysterious and powerful creatures. Also a king."
Eridan continued to relay his exploits. Though he was certainly qualified, everyone simultaneously agreed that he wasn't leadership material and started ignoring him as soon as he started talking about how no one came to visit him on LOWAA even though he knew that everyone was afraid of all those angels he kept making angry it's not that they didn't want to hang out it's that they really didn't want to go to a place where things could kill you in the blink of an eye.
"If only we could summon the sideways sixty-nine," said Mr. S. By now no one was in the mood to solve his Weird Puzzle Shit. Too bad. His was the most logical suggestion by far.
The bickering around the room escalated. Catsby could see that a fracture was inevitable among the group unless she stepped in.
"Enough," she said firmly. "I've summoned everyone here because you all have vast powers on your own, but together? Anything is possible. But that's only if you quit bickering long enough to get organized! The choice of leader is obvious."
A smile graced her lips as she pointed to the obvious choice.
