(1/??)
Attention, Umatter! I've come to make a very special announcement! Read below for the details on my latest scientific breakthrough... The "Agnes Everyone Project"!
@AgnesflightAce Hmph. And just what do you think you can offer to the resistance effort? I already have everything I need to create my countermeasure, so it seems that you're the one in need of my assistance. I will offer you nothing freely.
@sugarlightsST2 Even after duplicating the process, I still can't say I fully understand it myself. What I do know is that it's less about recreating it piece by piece and more about replicating the same frequency and wavelength as the original.
And that very fact will prove key to our success!
@AgnesflightAce And why should I trust someone of your ilk with such knowledge? What assurance do I have that you won't simply hand it over to your beloved Robotnik?
@sugarlightsST2 Indeed, 'tis a mere replica! Though an imitation is more than good enough for my purposes. It won't be turning anyone golden and invincible anytime soon, but so long as I don't try blowing up anything else I should be fine to keep squeezing more time out of my training sessions.
@sugarlightsST2 *The scientist hums as they ride along, evidently pleased with herself*
Quite the helpful little doodad, wouldn't you agree? Admittedly I'm a little envious an eight-year-old fox boy managed to make one first, but I suppose science is all about iteration!
@sugarlightsST2 Oho! Let's shave off a few seconds, then! Chaos Control~!
*She hooks an arm around the professor's with that melodic utterance. The air goes still, and all sound goes quiet. Staff and patients remain frozen in place. Time has stopped.*
Lead on, my gallant heroine!
@sugarlightsST2 *Tachyon takes a few moments to clamber out of bed, testing to make sure her legs can support her weight. Her IV still in, she folds up the laptop and takes it along with the emerald.*
Well enough for the next few minutes! Now, where was your lab again?
@sugarlightsST2 I learned a fair bit from the data I took from the Egg Carrier but even then, there are a lot of unknowns. Still...
*She folds her arms thoughtfully*
Provided the Director is using a similar method to my body control, as I suspect... I may have the beginnings of an idea.
@sugarlightsST2
*Some time later, Tachyon comes to in a hospital bed. She's sporting an IV drip, cuts and bruises and some minor burns, but by some miracle the damage seems to have been mostly superficial.*
...Hm. Still alive.
@sugarlightsST2 *She stares at the emerald again*
Though... perhaps if I were to focus not on destructive power, but...
*She goes quiet, seemingly thinking something over*
@sugarlightsST2 ...Well. Turns out these all-powerful stones aren't toys after all. I knew a "Chaos Blast" was theoretically possible, but if I hadn't been experimenting with a new compound to reduce injuries while training, it may well have killed me. Some scientist I am.
[2/2]
@sugarlightsST2 Yes, well, with a maniacal director on the loose I suspect *most* races are on hold.
*She looks down*
As they would have been had I succeeded in my own such endeavor.
It's happening again. It's happening all over again and I couldn't stop it.
@sugarlightsST2 *The bedridden scientist turns, then narrows her eyes.*
Flowers, Professor? Really? The explosion neither left me near death nor radically altered my personality overnight.
*She lightens up slightly.*
But I'll suppose I'll overlook it from my gallant savior.
