Author's Notes:

Yep, not pulling your leg on this one. You're getting a full clop scene in this chapter.

If you want to skip it, look for this: ~o0o0o0o0o0o0o~

But I doubt you will want to if you're still reading this story. And go thank FrosttheWolf for at least half of the clop and Lance's lines.

“Damn etiquette, making me put my hair up,” I muttered as I rummaged through the collection of Displaced tokens that I had. “Well, I do have this one ribbon. No it doesn’t match the dress. Dammit, how am I supposed to-” I stopped as I pulled out a simple yellow lightning bolt hairpin with unfolded, silver wings near the top. As soon as my hand touched it I heard, “I am Gunvolt; The Azure Striker. Adept of Lightning. Call my name and when Lightning Strikes, I will fight for you.”

I blinked and shrugged, “Oh well, whoever this ‘Azure Striker’ is wouldn’t mind me using his Token as a hair clip. Just hope he doesn’t get summoned by accident.”

Just as I was adjusting the pin though, a warm glow began to course through my hands and the cracks of electricity began to fill her room. “Wha- Damn it Murphy!” I said as a thunderous roar erupted from nearby, almost like if Thor crash landed in my bedroom.

The one who arrived though was nothing like Thor. In fact, this “Gunvolt” was a lot younger in appearance. He wore an azure overcoat and gear from top to bottom and also seemed to have a long braid on the back of his head. However, the one thing that really caught her attention with this boy was that the metal clip at the end of his braid was the same token that I was trying to adjust in her hair.

I sighed, drawing the attention of the boy, and said, “That’s what I get for trying to use a Token as an accessory, isn’t it?”

Lance turned and went for the holster that held one of his pistols. But when he saw that it was just me, he stopped. He looked to my hair and sighed. “Trust me, I’ve had worse experiences. One Displaced tried to-. Oh Sh-!” he said before blushing. “I’ll just… step outside for a moment.”

I glanced around, noticing that my dress was still hanging on the chair. Oh, that's what he's blushing about. I got a devious look in my eyes and stepped closer to Lance, making sure he knew exactly where I was looking. “And miss getting a show?”

“I’m invading your privacy aren’t I? Plus, I don’t even know your name,” Lance said, obviously feeling like his back was against the wall.

I took a few more slow steps towards him before I stuck out my hand and said, “I’m Max. The only way you’d be able to ‘invade’ my privacy.... Well, you know~.”

Lance sighed a little, noticing the dress on the chair that was nearby. “Do you have something going on tonight? Because that looks a bit formal.”

“Yeah, another formal party being thrown by an influential pony,” I said, shaking my head. “I’d rather not go, but -- being as I’m ruler of Equestria -- I have to go to every party I’m invited to.”

“I see… Hey, since I’m here… would you mind if I come with you? I don’t want you to feel like you’re forced to go somewhere alone. That way, you can feel comfortable.”

“Hmmm....” I looked him over carefully, even circling him once and brushing a hand against his backside. Damn, he is fine! Maybe I could... talk him into having some fun with me afterwards.

Lance looked a little unsure of what to say next, but continued and said, “And maybe afterwards……… Then we can have a… show?”

Oh, he actually wants some of this? I thought before giving him a seductive smile. “Oh, we’ll have more than just a show,” I said, walking over to my dress. Once I was standing next to the chair I slowly reached up and unhooked my bra, leaving it hanging on my shoulders as I glanced back at Lance and winked before shrugging it off and tossing it onto the dresser. Keeping my back to him I picked up my dress and slipped it over my shoulders, hiking up the front to remove my panties and then tossed them onto Lance’s head.

“U-uh… Okay then. Lead the way, my lady.” Lance said, trying to hide the blush that tried to appear on his face. He opened the door for me, obviously thinking I was ready.

I levitated my crown over, slipping my feet into the high heels that came with the dress as I called, “Sol, can you make sure Mun gets Golden and Light to bed in an hour? Rainbow’s already asleep on my bed.”

“Who’s Sol? A servant?” Lance asked in a low toned voice.

“She’s an AI I bought from Nono -- the one who sent me here -- after I was out of stone for... roughly a week. She has a ‘twin’ named Mun. Their first names are Zenith, since they came from the same AI core, but they have separate hulls and organic bodies,” I explained as I took one last look in the mirror and walked towards the door. “They’re basically my family’s bodyguards and friends, rather than actual servants or something.”

“I see,” Lance said, tossing the garments that were on his head to the bed before closing the door behind them, “Lead the way, Ms. Max.”

“I have been married, Lance. If you’re going to use a title, please use the correct one,” I said as Sol matched my pace and Mun’s hull followed behind.

“I apologize… Mrs. Max? Would that work?” The Adept asked, a little unsure.

“I’d rather you just called me Max, but yes.”

“Okay Max. Lead the way.” The Adept said, offering a kind gesture that would have her take the lead.

I lead the group to the main hall stopping briefly in front of Celestia's statue, laying a hand on its dais reverentially. “I’ll catch him. He’ll be coming after me tomorrow, but I’ll catch him instead,” I whispered.

“I’m sorry, but I’m a bit lost in translation.” Lance whispered back. “Care to explain who’s ‘He’?”

My expression soured and I turned to the main entrance. “The one who killed them.”

“Oh… I’m sorry to hear that… Does he have a name?” Lance asked.

I gestured at the statues and said, “Commander Hurricane killed Celestia and Luna.”

“Oh… and if you say that he’s coming after you… Do you need a bodyguard?”

I sighed and started for the door. “With Sol and Mun to protect me, and my own powers besides, I don’t need anyone else. But Gilgamesh is around here somewhere and said he’d help me.”

“If you say so. I have powers myself, but you had probably already seen them when you summoned me.”

“Anyways,” I grabbed his arm and pressed myself to him, letting him feel my perky nipples through the thin dress. “How’s it feel to be the escort of the ruler of Equestria?”

“Quite… nice. Especially for someone as beautiful as you.” Lance complimented.

I gave him a small smile and loosened my grip as I saw we were passing by Silver Plate. “Ugh, etiquette....”

“Is something wrong, My lady?”

“No, but if I don’t follow etiquette, Silver Plate there won’t forget it. Or shut up about it.”

“Would it be the same thing for me or am I okay?” The adept asked.

“Probably not. If you don’t stay through the day that is.”

“Well, I’m not in a rush or anything, so I’m all yours.” The Azure Striker said happily. “Will the guards have to search me for weapons or is that not accustomed here?”

“If they did, they’d have to arrest Sol and I as well,” I said goodnaturedly.

“So would that mean I can keep these?” Lance asked, showing the two guns he kept in his holster underneath his coat. “Or would I have to set them aside at the door?”

I immediately closed his coat. “It isn’t the guns you have to worry about, it’s those muscles,” I said, stroking his chest before reluctantly withdrawing my hand. “I might just take you to a closet and have my way with you~.”

When we went inside the ballroom, Lance asked, “Max, Who’s that?”

I looked over and watched as Gilgy pulled a monocle and a top hat from somewhere and placed them on the giant green wolf-like figure beside him. “That would be Gilgamesh. I don’t know who that wolf is though,” I said, trying my best not to facepalm. “I don’t think he was invited to this party, judging by the way Fancy Pants is smiling.”

“That would definitely put a term on the phrase ‘letting themselves in’. Oh and I think he’s waving at you.”

I waved back, giving him a smile. “Well, he was good in bed last day. I guess I can forgive him of this.”

“Wait, he slept with you?” Lance asked, a bit surprised by the statement. “I thought you were married.”

“I said ‘was married’. Celestia... didn’t mind anyways if I had others, just like I didn’t mind if she did.”

“Wait… are you said that you married Celestia or am I getting this mixed up?” The Adept asked, a bit taken back by that sentence.

I motioned towards the dance floor. “Why don’t I explain while we do a song?”

Lance took up my hand and followed me in stride, nodding his head. “I’ll take you up on that offer, my lady.” The two began to dance in motion with the beat of the song, orchestrated by an earth pony who was very talented with a Cello.

“Marriage here is more simple than earth. There are the occasional flashy ones like Cadence and Shining Armor’s, but mostly it’s just two ponies sticking together,” I said as I watched a white mare with a spiky, two toned, blue mane walk over to the stage the cellist was on. She was beginning to prep her station, which had the electronic vibe mix into the spaces that the melody of the Cello had left open. “Most are open to... I guess you could say mistresses, but none were as loose as Celestia and I.”

“I-I’m sorry for your loss… It must be tough for you to go on since you lost someone you cared for.” Lance said.

I gave him a sad smile and said, “She didn’t want me to save her. She... felt that it was her time to go.” I shook my head. “I wasn’t about to go against her wishes.”

“Faithful to the end? What about her sister?”

“I had to stop her a thousand years ago from killing herself when she had to banish Celestia,” I sighed. “She spent a thousand years without her sister, and didn’t want me to save her either.”

“I-I’m sorry you had to go through that. It just…… bothers me a little. In the world I’m from, I’m suppose to help other ponies that can’t help themselves with my gifts,” He paused for a minute, trying to catch his breath, “However, it feels different with you because in a way, I’m not sure if there’s anything I can do to help. I feel like Somepony’s trying to get under my skin. Show to me that I’m a failure. That I can’t save everyone, even if I wanted too.”

“That is a hard truth for a hero to learn. That’s why I’ve settled for just being neutral,” I said before smirking. “But I’ll be as bad as you want in bed~....”

Lance smiled at me and said, “Indeed, but for now, shall we have this dance? Thanks to you, I can see I’m not a failure. Not with a beautiful goddess such as yourself.”

“'M not a goddess,” I pouted as I leaned into his shoulder, unconsciously rubbing my cheek into it.

“True. Not a goddess, but… my goddess.” The Adept cooed, caressing me so I could be comfortable in our current situation.

Damn he's sappy. But.... Fuck, am I falling for him? I thought as we danced through the crowd. I only met him a half hour ago, but this... this feels right.

All too soon, the song ended and they turned towards the drink table. I chuckled and said, “And here I thought I wouldn’t enjoy this. Thanks for joining me.”

“You’re welcome. Thank you for allowing me the chance to escort you, Max.” The Adept replied, looking over towards something.

“It was either that, or send you back right away with only a ‘sorry wrong number’,” I said before following his gaze and seeing Gilgamesh coming over. My expression soured a bit. “Great. Just when I forget about tomorrow night, I get reminded of it.”

“Ouch. Is that what you think of when you look at me? Maybe I should just avoid you for the night then,” Gilgamesh replied, holding his chest like he’d just been wounded. “So, who’s your date?”

“That isn’t what I meant.... This is Lance he’s... something called a Gunvolt?” I asked, looking at the person in question.

“My Name is Lance Walker. Gunvolt is just a code name. I’m an Adept.” He properly introduced himself. “It’s nice to meet you.”

“Likewise, kid. You moved pretty well on the floor there, too,” he complimented, extending his hand for a shake. “Oh, and this here’s my travelling companion, Enkidu. Say hi, buddy.”

The wolf barked and sat in front of him, wagging his tail as he actually tipped his hat.

“Wow. That’s quite talented. Oh man, if only Lumen were here to meet you. She’s a Breezie that I work with as a partner on the squad we’re on. Which makes me wonder, have you two ever heard of the Power Ponies?”

“Only from that one episode in the show,” I replied. “Didn’t really seem like the writers knew what they were trying to do with that one.”

Lance chuckled. “Actually, My Equestria is the same Equestria as theirs. Twilight and the others are the same heroes you might’ve heard of. But things aren’t quite as easy as what you saw in that episode that you were referring to.”

“Huh. So is Twilight an alicorn, or a pegasus with a horn attachment like some fans think the Masked Matterhorn was?”

“Alicorn.” Lance answered Gilgamesh’s question.

“You know, I’ve been thinking of how I could turn her into an alicorn without knowing exactly how it happens. Might just shove all the paperwork onto her once she’s one,” I stated.

“She might have her own responsibilities too. Split it evenly amongst you and her and you should be fine.” He suggested. “Wherever there’s a badge, there's always a burden.”

“Tell me about it. That’s why I didn’t take command of the military initially,” Gilgamesh muttered.

“Being a commander isn’t my thing either. I work well with partners, but huge groups is another thing. I am learning though and that is something.”

“Heh, and here I am, trying to guide Equestria through a forest of knives while blindfolded,” I said, shaking my head ruefully. “Still, I’d rather it be me instead of one of those once nobles.”

“Let me guess, they would want to seize power for themselves? Typical selfish jerks.”

“Most of the time, yeah, but sometimes they can surprised you. You’ll never guess who told all the panicking nobles to shut the hell up and get their shit together when the war in my dimension started,” Gilgamesh said.

“Fancy Pants?” I suggested.

“Prince freaking Blueblood.”

“That child abandoning piece of crap?”

“That might be who he is here, but in my universe he was just a pompous prick. Then Canterlot got attacked by the demons of Tartarus, and a near-death experience gave him a wake-up call. He even fought on the front lines.”

“Huh, and here I had him executed. If I had known that I would’ve just sent him to Tartarus for a few seconds,” I said as I filled a cup with some wine. “So how many Displaced have you met so far? Aside from Kat and Typhon, that is.”

“Oh boy, let’s see here… first was Xante, then there was Auric Fulcrum… Pyramid Head, Nemesis, Jason, Ben 10, Aaron-”

“Excuse me for interrupting, but did you say Jason? As in Jason Hughes?”

“Oh, you met my son?”

“Yeah recently. Had to fight with him when one of his enemies showed up in my world after trying to massacre the Breezies in Vanaheim. I think she was called… Eclipse?” Lance asked himself. “Not only that, but I happen to have met HodgePodge as well. I just didn’t know that he was your son.”

“No wonder you were worried about illegitimate kids,” I interjected.

“Actually, it’s kinda adoption. He’s actually the grandson of Hel, goddess of the dead, but he was raised on earth by two humans. His mom actually visited Equestria as a kid waaaaay in the past, and she went back with him when he paid the realm a visit. He never had any real attachment to his earth father. Apparently he was a religious nutcase, and asked if I’d like to fill the role.”

“Well, that’s quite a story Gilgamesh.” Lance complimented the Warrior. “Jason kind of told me about his family and I told him sometime that I should visit his family and what not. That is… if the villains that broke out of the Equestrian version of Arkham Asylum aren’t stalking the streets and causing problems… Then there’s the Ghoul issue…”

I suddenly grabbed Lance’s arm and said, “You know, you can always come here for some relaxation~.”

“Well, I did tell myself that I needed a break.” Lance said, looking at Gilgamesh. “Oh and here, I wanted to make sure I didn’t forget to give you my token.” The Adept handed him a copy of the pin in my hair.

“Got it. I’ll look you up some time,” the warrior said, and pocketing the token before stepping over to the boy and whispering in his ear. “Watch yourself, kid. She’s both on the giving and receiving end of the kinky spectrum, and she’s got stamina a succubus would be jealous of. That being said, if you got any fantasies, now’s probably your best chance to make them real. I know I did.”

Lance himself swallowed what was in his throat and nodded.

“Anyway, Maxie, do you and your new partner need a distraction out of this dull party to go play?”

I perked up and nodded my head saying, “I think everyone would like to know about Gabriel ‘Fluffy’ Iglesias.”

“You think this crowd will be up for that? I may be childish at times, but I’m not gonna make a fool out of myself.”

“And yet you gave your wolf a monocle and a top hat.”

“There’s a difference between looking silly and looking stupid.”

“True, but I have a feeling that they’ll love an impression of Fluffy.”

“Fine, but if they don’t, you owe me some more… compensation.”

I thought for a minute before saying, “Only if you don’t pull out at the last second.”

“Fine, but in that case you’ll have to put that mouth of yours to good work instead, because you still don’t know how to work a contraceptive.”

I smiled lasciviously and said, “Isn’t it better without?”

“Yes, but I’m not taking that risk. Now go have fun with your new boy toy, I’ve got to get myself a little more buzzed for this,” he finished walking off, Enkidu following behind him. “Alright bartender, time to test your mixing. I want a long island iced tea, a manehattan and rum and cola, stat!”

“I’m sorry sir, but... what’s a ‘cola’?” The bartender asked as he started levitating the ingredients for the other drinks.

“Well, we’re off to a great start,” he said sarcastically.

“Just get him a sex on the beach instead,” I called over her shoulder as I led Lance across the floor to a shortcut to a room with a bed.

“Isn’t that your thing?” he snarked back.

I closed the door as Gilgamesh started up a song with a wicked guitar and locked the door.

I snapped my fingers, turning the lights down until it was almost completely dark and closing the curtains.

“Now,” I said, turning around to face Lance, giving him my best bedroom eyes and making him blush. “How about we see about your clothes?”

“My clothes? What’s wrong with my-?”

I blurred forwards and put my finger on his lips. “They’re still on you~,” I said as I opened his coat and started rubbing his chest. I slowly lifted his coat off of his shoulders and let it fall to the floor as I dove in for a chaste kiss. No need to go too fast now.

Lance met me halfway as our lips made contact. But that was only step one in what I had in store for him.

I opened my mouth a bit, inviting him in but was disappointed when he didn’t accept. Dammit, does he not know what we’re doing here? I pulled back and asked, “You have no idea what going on, do you?”

“Honestly, I thought it was just the wine talking.” He replied. “Is there something I’m not getting here?”

I tilted my head. “We’re locked in a dark bedroom and I’m saying you have too many clothes on. Isn’t it obvious what’s going on?”

That’s when he realized it… I think… “Wait… you mean… you want to have sex?”

I facepalmed and said, “Yes. Have you never had someone do this before?”

“Why yes actually, this is a first for me.” Oh my… Lance is a virgin? Now things just got a LOT more interesting.

I lowered my hand to his chest again and gave him an easy smile. “Then it’s a good thing that you have me here~....” I kissed him again, this time slipping my tongue into his mouth and wrapping it around his. I slowly pushed him backwards to the bed, slipping my shoes and crown off.

I broke the kiss once his legs touched the bed and pressed forward into him enough to make him fall back. “Now about those clothes~....” I saw him nod his head, taking off his undershirt, boots, gloves and pants until he was at his underpants. They were black boxer-briefs and judging from how things have played out, I’ve caused a tent to be pitched in his undergarments. Yep, definitely a virgin. He has no sense of sensuality.

I giggled a little and said, “Looks like your Lance is almost ready~.” before I stood up and slowly slipped my dress off, using the shadows and my arms to hide my breasts a little longer as I tossed the dress onto what looked like a stool. I giggled again as I slid up his body to give him another tongue-filled kiss and rubbed his dick with a hand, making it stiffen a bit more. He moaned a little in pleasure of my hand caressing his member as he clashed his tongue with mine.

I felt his hands move from where they were on the bed and grasp my ass, kneading it while we tied our tongues together. Reaching back with my free hand I pulled one of his up my side, teasing him a bit before placing his hand on my breast and squeezing. He got the message right away, squeezing it a little before accidentally brushing his finger across my nipple and making me gasp into his mouth.

He smiled a little, seeing that I was enjoying his hands on my body. “What now, your majesty?” He said after he broke our kiss.

“Oooh~....” I looked lustfully into his eyes and said, “Now we get rid of those pesky boxers of yours~.” He nodded as I slowly pulled off his undergarments, revealing his Lance. It stretched out to about almost ten inches and was standing upward proudly.

“Oh, bigger than I thought it would be~. Just how I like it,” I said before grasping it and sliding down him. “You’ll like this part.” I lightly licked the tip of his dick, moving my other hand to fondle his balls as I started slowly jerking him off.

“Ohhhh, god.” He moaned in pleasure. His cock was stiffening now, so it was time for a new plan of attack. I got up on top of him, turned myself around, and had it to where my hidden treasure was by his face and my face was by his spear. I felt like I should swallow him right off the bat, but first, I wanted to make sure that the rookie knew what he was doing.

“I’m not going to get ready by myself you know,” I said as I lowered my box a little, hoping I wouldn’t have to bury him in it for him to get the message. He took his hands and grabbed my ass. I believe what he did next was just out of either curiosity or because he was unsure what to do, but that’s when I felt his tongue began to lick me clean.

“Ooooh yes, just like that,” I purred, giving his Lance a lick from hilt to tip making him groan again. I continued to lick at his pride and he did the same until I thought that I should kick it up a notch. In one swift movement, I began sucking him off, moving my head up and down his entire length.

I felt him stiffen and slowed, keeping his release just out of reach and wiggled my ass, silently telling him to continue. Instead though, something else happened. I don’t know if this was because I gave him mixed signals, but our positions were soon switched. I was laying down now and he was above me.

“How should I service you now, your highness?”

I slid his dick out of my mouth and said, “Mmph, n-now.... You fuck me. D-don’t cum too fast, though, I do want my bit of pleasure as well~.” At first, he seemed to be new to how this whole thing worked. But soon, he had turned around and entered me slowly, but firm as we both moaned in unison. After a few minutes though, we both caught our breath and I nodded for him to continue.

He started off slow since he was a beginner, but over time, Lance picked up the pace. Despite this though, I wanted more. “H-harder,” I moaned, looping my legs around him and pulling him in for a deep kiss. He smiled, putting more momentum into his hips and pulling out to where the head was left inside before thrusting back into the depths of my pussy. I was the one lost in the moment, but he was the one who was in control.

And that just made it hotter.

I tightened my legs, holding him still as I came, squeezing his cock with my depths as he grunted and tried not to cum as well. But, with a few more movements, his Lance began to twitch.

“U-urgh… I-i’m-.”

I pulled his head down and whispered in his ear, “Cum for me, Lance. Claim me with your spear!” And in one final push, he did. We collapsed on top of one another, his dick convulsing with his fresh and sticky load inside me.

I held him close as he drifted off and said, “Sleep well... my... Gunvolt.”

“Huh. No vanilla smell. No visible rope marks. I’m surprised, she actually went vanilla on him,” I heard Gilgamesh say.

“Well it was his first time,” I said with a yawn. “I couldn’t risk him running off with no clothes on, now could I?”

Gilgamesh looked surprised. “That’s unexpectedly considerate of you,” he replied before smirking at Lance. “Congratulations, kid, I think she has a thing for you. Hell, I didn’t even hear you guys over the laughter of the audience. Oh, and by the way, you were right about Fluffy, Maxie.”

“Wait a second… Should I know exactly what you two were doing or should I just mind my own business?” Lance asked, trying to put his clothes back on.

Gilgamesh smiled mischievously. “Let’s just say that I had desert twice that day. But before I could eat I had to tie it down so it couldn’t get away.”

I smiled as I stood up and said, “I wouldn’t mind doing that again.”

“Well, you were right about the party liking the stand up, so you don’t owe me another session,” he explained, still smiling. “But first, I think we should make sure to give your new boyfriend time to process everything before he breaks.”

“Yeah…… wait, what?” Lance said, a little puzzled. As he equipped his coat back on, one of his personal tokens fell into his hand, reminding him of something. “Oh that’s right. Max, before I go back, can I please have your token?”

“You can have more than that,” I said as I walked past Gilgamesh to the door. I motioned to Mun and whispered to him, “Do you still have my bag?”

“Yes,” he said and handed it to me.

“Thank you.” I rummaged around in it until I found what I wanted. The head of Celestia’s hammer, reforged as a keepsake. I turned back to Lance and said, “This is what’s left of Celestia’s warhammer. But for you, it will be my token. Call upon me for anything, and I shall listen.”

Lance looked back at me for a moment, and then smiled. “Thank you Max. Thank you for everything. I’ll miss you.”

I shook my head sadly. “Don’t thank me just yet, there’s still something I need to take care of.”

“Oh?” Lance asked. “What’s that?” The Adept was all ready to go and even had a rift ready for him to cross back to his world. But he stayed, so I could answer his question.

“Hurricane,” I said, looking at the clock. “Damn, only three hours until the chariot leaves for Manehattan.”

“I’m not sure if I can stay, but I can leave you with something.” Lance said, digging through his coat and tossing me what appeared to be a gun. “I carried an extra one on me besides the normal two I use. It’s a Crossfire Pistol and it’s shots can cut through the strongest of materials and cancel magic. I believe you know how to use a gun right?”

“Point the hole at what I want dead and they drop?” I said cluelessly.

“Precisely. I might not be there, but do me a favor and shoot that Hurricane Bastard between the eyes for me. Make sure that Celestia and Luna can rest peacefully. I’ll miss you Max.” With that, Lance stepped through the rift that was behind him and disappeared with a huge crack of lightning. A couple of tears began to run down my face.

“I don’t think I’ll be around for when he gets back, so I’ll say this now,” Gilgamesh began. “He might be a warrior, but he’s still a kid. Take good care of him. He’s got a lot of growing up to do. No innuendo intended.”

“Maybe. Anyways,” I reached back into my bag and pulled out my regular token and tossed it to Gilgamesh. “Here’s my token if you want something.”

“There is one thing I can think of,” he began as they both walked down the palace halls. “One of my compatriots gave me the power to move at the speed of light for a limited amount of time. It’s been very helpful, but I recently encountered an opponent fast enough to counter. I was hoping you could upgrade it to true time stop.”

“That... might be beyond me, but I’ll see if I can rig something together.”

“Later then. Let’s get to that museum.”
