|| I thiiiiink I know how I want Vis' upcoming development to go! I'll just need to put it to practice once it's time.

[ Vis is sitting by himself on a bench, dressed up in casual clothes instead of his knight armor. He doesn't even have a pointy hat on... ] [ He's wrapped up in bandages, legs tucked in close to himself as he rests his head against hid arms. ] [ He's not asleep, but he IS mulling over stuff... ]

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 11h

[ Vis is...gonna be absent for a bit. He's far too depressed to be doing anything. ]

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 11h

J-just leave me alone..! You got what you wanted...I don't wanna see you anymore...just go...!

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 11h

S-shut up already...you...you stupid clown... [ Vis' fists ball up in anger. He doesn't bother to do anything about it, though. Vis knows that he can't...and that's what makes him so frustrated and sad. ] [ All that training, just to be made a fool out of... ]

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 12h

[ Vis unceremoniously hits the ground with a thud. This time, he...doesn't even get up. Or move. ] [ ...In a few moments, Marx could hear Vis beginning to quietly sob. This was...really getting to him it seemed. When's the last time Vis cried, even? ]

110

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 12h

It's not...baloney..! [ Hey, Vis is up on his feet at least..! But, just looking at him, it's not hard to tell a breeze could knock him down again. He weakly raises his shield and sword... ] I...I can do it...I'm not finished yet...

110

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 12h

I...I can s...still... [ He's shakily trying to get off of the ground...who is Vis kidding? He's not nearly strong enough to continue fighting at this point. He really ought to just stay down, but he just can't let himself admit defeat. ]

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 12h

Wh-wha..?!! [ Vis eyes go wide at the sight. Simirror wasn't kidding! This guy really can summon a black hole?! ] [ The Black Mage tries to run away, but the force of the pull is strong enough to lift him off the ground and suck him in..!! ] WAAAHHHH-!!!!

110

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 13h

You asked for it..! [ Vis obliges, jumping up in the air and attempting a downward slash, but as soon as he landed, he'd spin and build up momentum so he could drive the point of his sword forward into Marx at max power! ] [ Same trick he showed off to Knuckle Joe a while back...! ]

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 13h

...Deal. [ Vis didn't have a "strongest attack", really. He was all physical. But he did have a pretty strong technique. Would it be enough to prove him wrong? Let's see! ] [ He holds his sword slightly behind him and gets into a fighting stance... ]

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 13h

O-oh yeah? Well SHOW me! [ Vis is bent on showing this clown that he's not as weak as he looks. Drawing his sword and shield. ] [ Simirror said this jester was not to be underestimated, but...obviously Vis didn't take the threat seriously. Just looking at him, he didn't seem threatening at all. ]

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 16h

N...no it won't! Everyone gets exhausted, so what?! I won't let that stop me! I can finish it quick! [ Vis is stubborn, refusing to admit that this would be a bad idea. He crosses his arms and looks to the side. ] ...besides, what do YOU know, you're just a clown.

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 23h

|| going to bed now! non 0% chance I'll be called into work, you know how it is....

000

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 23h

Then I'll kick THEIR butt, too! I've trained to be strong enough to handle all sorts of bad guys. I'll make their instant win button worthless! [ ...Should what Marx said come to pass, this won't be good for Vis. All that overconfidence is really gonna slingshot back in his face. ]

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 23h

If he was so strong, why didn't he stay and fight? I was exhausted after slaying the monsters he threw at me. He knew it, too! That one punch told him EVERYTHING he needed to know. He was no match! That's why he ran! [ Getting a little bit cocky there, Vis... ]

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 23h

[ Well...it certainly might work for Vis! He doesn't have a lot of experience in being lied to about anything. ] Mmhm. He summoned monsters, teleported around, did all of that annoying stuff... I was able to punch him, though. That made him run away. Turns out he's kinda weak...

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

[ ...An eyebrow is raised. Maybe Simirror was overstating things? He certainly doesn't LOOK very dangerous... ] Well, there's this evil kid I had to deal with yesterday who keeps on wanting to cause trouble for no reason. So I sent him home running. Apparently he hasn't learned his lesson, yet...

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

H-huh-? [ Vis looks at him for a second. He...matches the description! Oh, crap... ] Y...yeah, I uh...I was talking about a b-butt kicking.

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

[ Vis rips into the burger. In just a couple of bites, it's...practically gone. Patrol must have really gotten him hungry. ] You think so? I love it.

000

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

...hmph, if he tries something, he'd give me a reeeeal good excuse to kick his butt again. [ Ever since that fight, Vis has certainly gotten...confident. Who knows how long this will last. ]

000

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

UGH!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU??? [ Stomping a foot, gripping his own helmet in anger. He really is tempted to hurl this thing at him. What a jerk! ] FINE! Be evil, then! But you better not cry when I kick your butt like you did LAST TIME!

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

YES! I CAN! Just because it's spooky season DOESN'T give you the right to go out and cause trouble for everyone!! So cut it out!

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

...Why the heck do you wanna do all this evil stuff anyway? What are you getting out of all of this??

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I could always kick your butt to make you stop being evil?

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Heheh. [ The two make it to the store, where Vis pays for two burgers with gil he earned. Handing one over to Simirror. ] Here! Eat up.

000

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Oh! About that. Uh, a friend named Bandee gave one to me. He had a spare Air Rider...

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Heheh. [ Rubbing his nose a little bit. ] It pays to have a machine that can take you to all sorts of places. My Winged Star makes traveling as simple as snapping your fingers. C'mon! It'll be my treat.

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Yeah! I told some of the chefs around here about it when I went to visit this one far-out city that reeked like garbage and had a lot of violence in it. [ Not going to elaborate on that any further. ] Now they sell burgers.

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I think more people should be nice to my friends.

100

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Oh. [ Blink, blink. Must have had a rough couple of days...but Vis won't bring it up. ] Well, uh...like they say, that was yesterday, so uh...don't need to worry about that anymore. Because maybe tomorrow things'll turn out better!

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

|| the thing about vis is that he's so eager to get stronger, but he definitely has the potential to become more power hungry. being strong as a knight is the only way he can truly validate his existence and prove he has the right to exist, even if he can't do the one thing he was made to do.

100

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

[ Currently flying around on his Winged Star, cruising mostly. It's been boring and he wanted to take it out for a spin. ] [ He's certainly gotten a lot better at riding the machine than before..! ]

000

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

...Right. Don't mess with the pink clown. [ No promises, as Vis would still have to defend himself if an altercation or what have you would occur. ] What have you been up to, lately?

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Still, that sounds really awful. And I thought that evil wizard was tough to handle...sheesh. [ Looks like he's still a long way from being able to best THOSE guys. ]

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

B...black holes? A-aren't those the things from space that suck up things into total darkness??

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

I bet! Heheh. [ He chuckled as well. ] ...So who's this Marx guy you mentioned?

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Yeah! Though if you see him causing trouble at all, be careful...some of those monsters are really scary. [ He now sees Skull Kid as a public menace. Someone to watch out for. But deep down...fighting those monsters was fun. He hardly ever got to put his skills to practice. ]

110

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Heheh, you bet I did. I sent 'em home crying. [ Flexing a bicep that...well, wasn't there. Black Mages don't really put on muscle. ] He wore a really creepy mask and treated everything like it was a game...he definitely LOOKED scary, but he was just some mean kid.

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Sure! We can do that. It's boring today. [ Vis starts walking. He's a bit...sluggish today. ] I got into a fight with a real mean jerk yesterday. Kept on summoning monsters...

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Oh. ...That's okay! Maybe you'll remember if you give it some time.

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

It's so nice out... I'm glad we're FINALLY getting out of summer. I love this season!

000

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Oh...where ya going? Maybe I could escort you there? [ He tilts his head to the side. ] It's a bit boring, patrolling all by myself n' all.

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

BWAGH- [ Vis stumbles forward, almost falling directly onto his face! He turns around and straightens up his pointy helmet. ] Watch where you're-... ...Oh, you're that mirror mage!

010

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

[ Vis is going to be busy today, training and patrolling... ] [ He had a big day yesterday, but that won't stop him! ]

000

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

|| will be available sometime in the afternoon! about to go on my route. big worker over here.

VIS ORNITIER. @stalwartmagus.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

[ Vis collapses onto his bed. ] [ Tired...so tired. But proud. ]
