All good things must come to an end, and as we enter the final third of the pre-bracket, before the quick story we must stress: Every vote matters. Every contestant is still in the running for the last invitation, no matter how bad the odds may seem. Choose wisely, because between today and tomorrow, you will decide which of these four viable contenders will join Exhibition Gallery. Thank you for your votes, and may the odds be in your favor.

After the last two matches, Basil and Mario seemed to actually get along rather well- perhaps it was the relief that there were no space-warping beings, peculiar girls from mysterious, potentially unexplainable lands, or giant purple monsters running around. Is this calmer match a sign that their luck might be improving for the better, or is it just a happier finale than the last two bouts? Only time will tell...

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 [P4] - Mario "Jumpman" Mario

It's-a-him, Mario! This portly plumber of world renown has caught wind of another world of paintings and, with a mistaken invite, has come to the G.A.L.L.E.R.Y. for a chance to become the Superstar! If he can make it through with just his legacy, his athletic prowess, and a few powerups at his beck and call, then perhaps a true victory won't end up being found in another museum...

VOTE HERE! https://forms.gle/Hyuv33xdviF7UzEf9

Final results will (hopefully) be out tomorrow at 9PM EST. Please vote responsibly.

Alex: "You know what, just bloody go wild. I'm not sitting by and being your goddamn babysitter."
ENA: "Hey, HEY! That suit's custom made, you can't- 𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘱 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘵, 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘤𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘮-𝘮𝘢𝘥𝘦!"
G-Man: "𝙁𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙖 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙙 𝙨𝙘𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙨𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙖.......𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙖 𝙗𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝙡𝙚𝙩 𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙞𝙩𝙨 𝙘𝙖𝙜𝙚......𝙄'𝙫𝙚 𝙨𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙨𝙚, 𝙈𝙧. 𝙃𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙤𝙣."

It seems that as the pre-bracket draws to a close, Alex is in no mood to stick around and has allowed the Bulk to go on a full rampage against ENA and G-Man! Will the polygonal posse be able to snatch a victory out of the big, purple hands of wrath or will Alex be stuck around long enough to actually face the blowback of this? Only you can decide...

There’s something rather unsettling about this one. Subject K-11, at first, appears to be a somewhat harmless fantasy animal of some variety. Its most noteworthy traits are a lack of emotion and its desire to grant wishes if someone fulfills a contract for it. While we’re not entirely sure how it can grant these wishes nor what each contract entails, we are aware of its name: Kyubey. Further research paints a grim history of multiple contracts and a multitude of individuals serving under it. We’re not completely sure to what extent Kyubey’s powers can be used here and as such we’re keeping a close eye on it, even if its lack of emotion is unnerving to a fair number of staff members.
