Character Represented: "Flat Eric" (Bec Noir, John Madden, Pufferfish, ZALGAR)

MADDEN: Hey Chris, you didn't tell me you were inviting us to a Top 8 elimination party. I would have came by sooner if I knew it was more than your usual shenanigans.

PUFFERFISH: Augh (How can you be so fucking positive for someone who just got cucked by a stick figure?! I bet if I had your bracket I could be in top 4 right now, old man.)

BEC: You say that when you had to get your ass saved by a glitched-out coot after you went into a blind rage against an empty spot in bracket.

MCKUMA: Alright dudes, chill out and relax for a second! Frankly, it's funny to watch you all bicker, but not when I got something important to say!

Anyways, we ran into some trouble earlier because SOMEONE accidentally put the wrong address on their track submission and sent us a track for a Mr. "Flat Eric". Now frankly, dudes, I am not about to go find some bus driver out in the middle of nowhere, but I can't just turn down a track submission like this either. So, I'm getting you dudes to fill in for him. Nothing like a little Oizo to liven up the views right?

BEC: ...This Eric guy seems kinda dog-like, wouldn't y-

MCKUMA: I AM NOT HEARING IT DUDE. Frankly, I think the chaos of all four of you working together is just as entertaining for the viewers as the track itself, so get yourself partnered up with Fishbowl and the deepspace lovebirds who have had 3 tracks together. Unless you'd rather not have the extra track.....

PUFFERFISH: AUGH! (Alright, I can take both of you the fuck on even if I have dogdick over here slowing me down. Get over here and let me show you who the most robbed one here is, bitches!)

MADDEN: H-hey, as much as I'm fine with a free-for-all pickup game, I think this will just end up as another buffet for our gluttonous cat-god over here.

(PLANKTON VS. TOURNEY TIME TWIST) A Radioactive Ocean  ~ Through The Heat And Tides

🕹“Millennial Childhood” is a nostalgic ride through the late ‘90s and early 2000s—the days of Pogs, Super Soakers, Tamagotchis, roller rinks, and Blockbuster nights. With playful lyrics and heartfelt memories, it celebrates a simpler time when Saturday mornings felt like magic and every arcade token carried a dream. A soundtrack for anyone who still remembers the glow of streetlights, dial-up tones, and holding hands under the disco ball.

✨ For the kids who grew up analog and came of age digital.

Millennial Childhood

Track By: @youre-fired

Story By: @youre-fired

To celebrate returning to the surface world, the bosses decided to go to a nearby bar, and reminisce on past times.
-------------------------------------------------------------
NIKKI: Hey, um..I need to tell you guys something.
FANG: What'll that be?
NIKKI: Well, before Stool..y'know'd. He, gave me a picture of all of us together. He drew it himself!
THE RAKE: **the rake groans with anticipation, he's very curious what the picture looks like.**"
DRAKE: he wants to s-s-see.
NIKKI: Well, here.
Nikki presents a crudely drawn, child-like picture. With everyone present at the bar + the now deceased Stool.
FANG: Aww well ain't dat just sweet.
CAPTAIN FLYNT: Hey that's me! I...think? Anyways, the little bastard sure was annoying, but I grew to enjoy his company.
KEKCROC **Kekcroc is banging his head into his spot on the drawing** HI I'M KEKCROC. HI I'M KEKCROC. HI I'M KEKCROC.
SAKI: shhh..s-shhhh.
BETE: How..curious. It seems like our boss really wanted to become a "Stella" in the end.
SAKI: It's a sh-shame that Stool had to..d-d-die. 
FANG: Dat's true but, if it weren't for his death, we wouldn't even be here right now!
CAPTAIN FLYNT: Lets just be real with ourselves for a moment. Stool never even offered us much money. The only reason we took up his offer in the first place is because we felt bad for the little twerp!

The bosses all nod their heads in agreement.

After hours of laughing, drinking, and just fucking around in general, the bosses decided to say their goodbyes. However, Fang decided to do one more thing before his life went back to being normal. He decided he'd have a celebratory heist. Though, something happened to Fang during the heist. Something that he really couldn't quite remember...

Parting Ways ~ Evil No Longer

Character Represented: John Madden

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ While Madden may not be on mission right now, he takes the time to calmly stargaze as his match with Fancypants is fast approaching. However, his tranquil gaze into space is interrupted as his opponent approaches. ] 

MADDEN: What’s up, son. Never mind the occasional chat before the big game, but I didn’t expect one this late.

FANCYPANTS: Nothing much, I just wanted to run a question by you if you don’t mind giving into your coaching instincts for a bit.

MADDEN: I hope you aren’t trying to find any of my strategies for our upcoming match, because I am saving those for myself.

FANCYPANTS: It’s just that...I have been thinking how to spice up my hype a bit. I know Tragedy needed the extra comfort, but I need to get something really big to help kick things off.

MADDEN: Well, I’d say that you had a good idea working with some of our other contestants, but you need to get someone with a big audience behind you to help you out. Of course I was trying to help out the arcade cabinet but I didn’t look the other way of taking an extra duel is all I’ll say.

Tell you what, I saw that one of the finalists head off into the woods, maybe taking a breather after her last match to cool off from the cat. From what I heard, it was a very chaotic match so it might be some convincing but she is your best shot.

[ Fancypants doesn’t have time to think about what Madden said as he hurried off and sees if he can catch up to the Satori. Considering his agile speed, he should be able to catch up to her in no time. ]

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ Soon enough, Madden continued his stargaze into the night sky as his rival trailed off into the woods. As he lets the beauty of space enter his thoughts, he can't help to think how similar he and his crafty opponent is. 

Two men beyond their prime time showing the world what they both have to offer. Both showing their personal pasts to a wider audience and getting one last thrill with a grand prize of relevancy and dedication to their history.

Though, in the end, Madden is content with how far he went. He will, of course, continue fighting and it will definitely not be an easy match, but he won't be upset with another person with the same burning passion as him to earn their spot in Final 4.

He helped give his friends, competitors, and fans the hope they needed, and if he had to lose now it would be hell of a way to go. In his eyes, he already got his prize... ]
