BASE RULES:
BABA IS YOU
TEXT IS EDIT
SPEECH IS TRANSLATE

Bababa: Ba baba!
(Example: Hi there!)
//Rules and manipulations thereof will be in all caps, and everything else will consist of ba, baba, or bababa with appropriate punctuation, followed by a translation in parentheses.

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

@LandsknechtUma ... Ba bababa.
(... No comment.)

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

@Key_of_all Ba!
(Yes!)

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

[The last crystal. An altar just like the previous three.]
EARTH CRYSTAL IS SHATTER
[As the fragments scattered, Baba suddenly collapsed, unconscious. And her tablet disappeared in the clutches of an inky blackness as the ceiling began to crumble and rocks began to fall...]

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

"OnE lAsT CRYSTAL"
"AND YOUR DEBT IS REPAID"
"LOOK TO THE GREEN DEVIL'S PLACE OF PUNISHMENT"

"... Ah. I understand this one unfortunately well."
[Baba emerged from the vents and made her way through the darkness to the not-so-secret secret cobalt mines just outside Tracen.]

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

[Dropping from above into the Academy's deepest basement, Baba opened the furnace door found an altar with a crystal above it, just like the two before.]
"Will this ruin the heating system...?"
[Pause.]
"Well, it's not my problem!"
FIRE CRYSTAL IS SHATTER
[The fragments spread.]

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

[Baba descended through the mine tunnels. Downward, and downward, and- was this really structurally sound?]
MINE IS STABLE
[The new rule brought Baba peace of mind, at least. She continued the descent until the tunnels up into one large cavern. And in the middle of it...]

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

[Dropping from above into the Academy's deepest basement, Baba opened the furnace door found an altar with a crystal above it, just like the two before.]
"Will this ruin the heating system...?"
[Pause.]
"Well, it's not my problem!"
FIRE CRYSTAL IS SHATTER
[The fragments spread.]

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

"Okay... took longer than I thought with all the indoor lights going out. But it seems the Fire Crystal is at the core the Academy's heating system."
[Baba carefully traversed the air ducts, making her way in to the center of it all.]

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

New Rules:
SOLDIER IS BOOM
WATER CRYSTAL IS SHATTER

[An explosion overtook the man, launching his body into the doorway. And Baba watched once more as a Crystal shattered into fragments.]
...
[Her tablet pinged with a message. 'Find the Fire Crystal at the source of heat.]

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

"... Ba baba. Baba ba bababa baba ba baba baba Bababa, ba bababa ba bababa ba bababa baba."
("... Of course. With no natural body of water near Tracen, the crystal is underneath the swimming pool.")

BABA IS PHANTOM

[She descended through the water like it was open air.]

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

"ONE DOWN.
THREE TO GO.
YOUR DEBT IS REPAID UPON. MY RETURN."
[Baba's gaze swept over the scattered remains of the Wind Crystal. Then, she turned away and followed the voice's directions once more.]
"Ba Baba Bababa... bababa, bababa."
"The Water Crystal... underwater, somewhere."

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

"You know, not even going to ask. Who knows what the Director's funds end up going to?"
[Baba entered the tower, and ascended to the top. Another crystal, this one blue, awaited there. Standing in front was a man in armor.]
"Is the Director's PMC still active...? Doesn't matter."

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

"ONE DOWN.
THREE TO GO.
YOUR DEBT IS REPAID UPON. MY RETURN."
[Baba's gaze swept over the scattered remains of the Wind Crystal. Then, she turned away and followed the voice's directions once more.]
"Ba Baba Bababa... bababa, bababa."
"The Water Crystal... underwater, somewhere."

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

*Meanwhile.*

"THE GODDESSES. ABSENT

THE TIME TO ACT. IS NOw.

REP@Y. YOUR. DEbT to mEee."

...

(The voice that called me out of that void I floated endlessly through after that last puzzle...)

("... Yes. I shall.")

[Baba started to follow the directions the voice gave.]

[Landsknecht @LandsknechtUma]

... Hä?
If someone stole the Godesses, this is *not* a funny joke.
But, wait. I can just call Schaf and use Schaf's powers to see what actually happened!
[She picks up the phone and calls. Straight to voicemail.]
.........
.........
Scheiße.

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

[The walk through the building was quiet. Baba could see monsters in the shadows, but they didn't attack her (so much for random encounters). Baba ascended to the top of the shrine... and stood before a vine-covered altar atop which rested a crystal.]
...
WIND CRYSTAL IS SHATTER

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

Ba! Baba bababa, ba Baba Bababa!
Ba baba ba baba ba ba ba.

(Hi! Rather delayed, but Merry Christmas!)
(I have a gift for you all.)

New Rules:
BABA HAS GIFT
BABA GIVE GIFT
NOT BABA HAS GIFT

Baba ba ba ba: ba bababa bababa!
(For all of you: my marketable plushie!)

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

@LandsknechtUma [The two of them and the TIE Fighter turned translucent, and the TIE descended through the roof of the Mob Dorm and gently descended into the common room. Baba tapped at the tablet again, calmly this time.]
New rules:
LANDSKNECHT AND BABA AND TIE IS NOT PHANTOM
TIE IS SAFE

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

@LandsknechtUma ... Baba?! Ba ba bababa ba baba ba ba baba? Baba baba bababa ba!
(... What? Are you trying to land on the roof? You'll crash through it!)
[Baba tapped frantically on the tablet screen.]
New rules:
LANDSKNECHT AND BABA AND TIE IS PHANTOM

[Baba @BabaIsYouTwo]

@LandsknechtUma ... Bababa, baba?
(... Dramatic, much?)
New Rule: DOOR IS OPEN AND SHUT
[The locked door disappeared into sparkles.]
Bababa baba ba ba ba baba, baba baba ba ba!
(Tachyon sent me the door data, we're good to go!)
