"Pretty much." Lillian said. "But, um, it's gonna take billions of perceptual years to even get close to being able to do that, and honestly the bubbles are fine so it's not like you need to." #not even godtier #power curves #wow you are really vengeful #it's really more of a partnership than mastery #thought tacking
"So, uh, do you wanna start the crazy now or later?" #rain is still insanity gurl #taste the rainbow #death still has board games why is nobody considering that option anymore #voices are really good at poker like you need a light player to beat all the possessed dupliclones #beating people up with corpses #I think we're getting off-track #like REALLY off track "Like, I can show you the ropes to going power with madness or we can work on getting the assistance of the dark gods of the furthest ring, either way works." #sic on that going power with madness thing it shouldn't be switched to normal going mad with power #back on track #the bubblr resurrection thing is not handed out to genericores
Lillian realizes she's using a lot of lengthy technical conversational hashtags and bubblrs the conversation for her popularity's sake among the dead. Almost immediately a foam of tiny e-bubbles coalesces nearby, composed of the offhand likes and saves and replies of horrorterrors and dreaming dead alike.

"Let the crAzy begIN." Sarah looked back at Lillian with all the fury of a woman scorned. #Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned #Revenge on SBURB #Whatever it takes #I will break this game if I have to #Has anyone ever taken up Death on the boardgames? #Stopped using NORMAL as my quirk a bit ago #I guess maybe I'll use #RAIN #now and also maybe #VOICES #Am I doing this right? #Going power with madness.
Sarah bubblrs the statement, in order to begin her own popularity.

"Righty. Let's start by opening up the voices..." #Yes, great hashtags #here comes the crazy train #making it rain #break this game #Death is really good at Hungry Hungry Hippos
To the cheers of Rain-aligned ghosts everywhere, a few headaches of the Voices float and lumber into existence, waiting to be recognized and internalized.
"Since you might not have done so before, just try making a headache. Neon icecream if you can, but any flavor of the rainbow and then some will do. Just let creative insanity break the rules of the world."

"ANy flAVOuR Of the RAINbOw, huh? YEAh, y'kNOw, I duNNO why, but I lIkE thE SOuNd Of NEON ICECREAm" As Sarah finished speaking, she raised her arms, channelling the power for the first time. Already, her determination manifested in a vast tear in reality - a shard of rule-breaking in a bubble, a world linked to rules - a world linked to dreams. #RAIN IN A dREAm #AREN't thEy OppOSItES? #I duNNO thO I lIkE thE IdEA Of mIxINg thE twO fOR SOmE REASON #RAIN #DREAmS #BEINg dAEd #JuSt gIRly thINgs #SOmEbOdy ONcE tOld mE #NORmAl IS juSt A SyNONym fOR ImpOSSIblE #ANd If thAt'S tRuE #WEll It SOuNdS lIkE #RAIN lEtS ONE dO thE ImpOSSIblE #BREAk thE RulES #BREAk REAlIty

Lillian applauds this first foray into the rain. Some ghost has an idea and brings up the memory of a Skaian Summoning of a Rain player on the Land of Rain and Mountains, just so Rain can get a better look. The offending dorito-eating violinist that used to be the rain player it was assigned to wanders in at the invoking of their memory, but this does little besides make the bubble a tad more colorful and cliffy.
"Oooh, headaches come naturally. High-potency players are fast, this might only take a few hundred million years instead!" #still a long time tho #I cast Ephedra! "Maybe we can do the dupliclones thing to cut down the wait time further. Wanna go revelawesome hunting in other people's memories or just laze for a while?" #decisions decisions.

"Okay, let me explain this." Lillian says, suddenly being several identical people around herself and Sarah."You sort of...do that. As Dream is precision and systems, Rain is redundant chaos, like Mist is too much everything. You be the many. Let the voices into you and run around as yourself except you're in more than one place at once. And don't forget to laugh a hardchorale once you figure out that."
She recollects into a singular lady of mist and headaches and starts humming 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow', causing a dungeon to erupt from the dreamland outside from the memories of the offending rainchild, and pop open because said rainchild was next to it.
"That's the dungeon where that dude learned Tangled Waltz so he could make more of himself. Dream physics mean that the underlings in there can't actually hurt you in any permanent or lethal way, and I'm strong enough and protected by dream law that they can't hurt me either, and we can still hurt them because they're just constructs, so no harm in checking it out and practicing killing. I mean it'll hurt if you get hit but it can't kill you and it'll heal pretty much instantly. Let's go?" #woo dream dungeoneering #imp hunt whatever year this is #fun fact revelawesomes from the same aspect or class can be learned even in death #germburb
Lillian takes out what appears to be a combination of a rocket launcher and a shopping mall and waits over by the door.

Sarah pulls out what looks to be a pair of elemental-linked pistols - one linked to ground, the other to fire "YEAh SO whEN I wAS yOuNgER pOkEmON wAS All thE rAgE, tuRNS Out thEy AlChEmIzE wEll." #Dugtrio pitol #Magmortar pistol #Kinda boring #Can I create weapons by imagining them? #Or do I have to find them? #Whatever we'll deal when the time comes #time to kill imps
Sarah enters, firing wildly at anything that dares to move.

Lillian follows, shooting at imps with everything from perfectly generic object ponies to statues of wizards, fueled by an inexhaustible treasury of endless boondollars and grist. It is a live first person shooter in essence, seeing as with no risk of dying just running up to things and shooting them with wild abandon works perfectly.
"Yes to both. It's a sort-of thing special for Rain guys and dream security. Psychogenesis means you can make up stuff with a mental alchemiter, I guess we can look for that in a bit."
She slays the boss with an expensive-looking crystal chandelier made of dreamglass, and opens up a treasure chest to receive...Another instance of the Thorns of Olgogoth, held in a toilet paper roll labeled 'For Daddy'.
"Haha, wow, I can't believe they actually throw this stuff into the Ring." #it happened #this is like the sixth time this week "You want these prickly thornsticks for later? And how's that revelawesome coming?" #more fun facts corrupting dreaming dead doesn't really happen since they're already pretty much under control

Sarah focused for a moment. The next thing she knew, she was looking back at herself. And also herself. And herself again. There were four of her. "YOu mEAN lIkE thIS?" #You do #I know you do #We know you do? #This is kinda cool #Also no thanks on the wands #Pistols are my thing #If I can make better stuff then maybe we should get on that #let's go

Lillian shrugs and captchas the thorns. "Anybody got a Psychogenesis memory?" she calls out, shifting the scene to a different dungeon, this time the gates to the innermost chamber, in a great castle tower from the Land of Temples and Forests. "Oh, cool, this is one. Reminds me of Lady Gaga's denizen palaces, they're always so- Wait, this is exactly like one of Gaga's denizen palaces. She must have stolen the revelawesome trigger and put it in a box for this other guy. Subscript says the release is a pretty actual fight. Well, it's just a bigger projection, since LG doesn't always do the denizen-in-bubble thing. Brace for a song and dance number and having no idea what's going on and more Rain than you've ever seen, I guess." She shrugs, muttering a reaction image. " " #brace for impact #gaga ooh la la #its gon rain

Sarah spends time taking in the scenery, and her eyes open wide as she hears what Lilian is saying.
"WAIt SO... whAt ARE wE dOINg hERE AgAIN?" #I am confused #Lady Gaga is a denizen? #Why are we here exactly? #What is the plan? #I mean other than the obvious part about how #it's gon rain #Wait do we have to fight #Lady Gaga #to get the revelawesome? #what #We have to fight Gaga #What the fuck #This is a thing rain player do?

"Okay, I tried to ping out a memory of the Psychogenesis revelawesome. This is one where a Rain denizen abused her power to subvert mechanics to kidnap the revelawesome, and then put it in a box so we have to fight her to get to it. Since we're both nigh-unkillable it's just a music video of pain and explosions until the fake Gaga retreats." #boom #Rainworldproblems "And yes, Lady Gaga is a big snakey denizen, like George Washington. The in-universe body is just an avatar like the goddess Athena would send to call islands to piece and pimpslap witches. Because she doesn't hate her players she fulfills all her contractually obligated trolling with complete and utter Rain and Sound to the point it puts off everyone except hardcore Orchestra and Voices fans and fights them with musical practice. I guess we just walk in and start shooting the flashy stuff." #Indeed wtf #We have to fight Gaga #I mean active Rain and Sound players can do this
Lillian shrugs, and kicks open the door. Immediately she is confronted by...
"She brought backup dancers!" Lillian shouts, opening fire with a barrage of expensive-looking jewelry and partially exploding into reverberating headaches to dodge the opening salvo of lasers from various Underlings, Denizen minions, and assorted backup dancer aliens as the song begins.
(OOC: Things I'd never think I'd have to do: try to describe a Lady Gaga music video in terms of Sburb)

"Oh. OhOhOhOhO. It'S thIS SONg? I uSEd tO lOVE thIS SONg! EVERyONE wAS lIStENINg tO It. NO wONDER I lIkEd It SO muCh!" Sarah's dupliclones increased in number.

Gaga's crazy fest had just begun, and Sarah was matching with her own, even if it was on a less grandiose scale. Her response was as follows:

Lillian shrugged and joined in the dance-fighting, following along with her part.
A few other ghosts join in the dance-fighting. The ceiling moved into a laser pattern, as the denizen herself finally burst into song, leaving the box of psychogenesis revelawesome undefended underneath the LOTAF land instrument bagpipes. Fractal illusions descended and became real, as horsechestras appeared from the floor and flew upward. Sonic explosions ricocheted as strobe lights went wild.
It was generally a party of Rain and Sound, with a box in the corner. Some dead troll picks up the land instrument bagpipes and starts playing random songs.
