It seemed like a stomp at first, but slowly but surely, the two converged. Who won?

Character [P1] - Basil

Wandering through a dark door, a pleasant gardener has arrived at the G.A.L.L.E.R.Y.! Basil, the timid boy with quite the green thumb, has gotten himself horrifically lost, but the museum is sure to be a safe place for him. Sourcewise, he has several things to pull from. Plants and flowers, of course, are where his expertise truly lies! And just like a white egret orchid says, with his wide variety of mind-related sources, his thoughts will follow you into your dreams. But there seems to be something constantly worrying Basil, and it's something that allows him to pull from much more fear-inducing media... However, it's probably nothing to worry about! The smile on his face lets everyone know that everything is going to be okay.

Character [P3] - Alex & The Bulk

While on the search for the worst, Alex from IHE fame happen to stumble upon the monstrous Amazing Bulk, who wasn't very happy about the review he gave his movie. In fact, there was only one way he would accept this scathing review. ...He needed to accompany him to the G.A.L.L.E.R.Y. as a teammate. Thus, Alex forms his unlikely alliance with The Bulk. With the power of their combined anger, hatred, and love for horribly bad movies, hopefully they won't end up with the worst placement in the history of anything ever.
