Well, it says it was posted about 6 hours ago for me so...

[X] "Oh, that reminds me. I maaaay have accidentally broken probability for a bit."

Considering what he has to do this turn, we should probably tell him.
 
[X] "Oh, that reminds me. I maaaay have accidentally broken probability for a bit."
 
[X] "Oh, that reminds me. I maaaay have accidentally broken probability for a bit."

Just to distract:
Shego and Doof can kind of handle each other because of mutual respect. But with how low Shegos limit for BS/strange is she would probaly explode just witnessing a normal day in the DEI office. Any takers?
 
[X] "Oh, that reminds me. I maaaay have accidentally broken probability for a bit."
Xanatos has been a good ally thus far and deserves the forewarning to use to his advantage or to minimize issues as he sees fit.
 
[X] "Oh, that reminds me. I maaaay have accidentally broken probability for a bit."
 
[X] "Oh, that reminds me. I maaaay have accidentally broken probability for a bit."
 
Why not both?

[X] "Oh, that reminds me. I maaaay have accidentally broken probability for a bit."
[X] "Anyway, I wish you luck."

They pair so nicely together and using the "wish you luck" as the last one makes for a cheeky goodbye referencing Our -inator.

I mean, I get the point is basically "Tell David about probability only going to either extreme for a month or two" vs "Don't do that", but still. It's too good not to use the line!

But that gave her pause. Demona had been defeated, but Dominique Destine had not. As much as this defeat stung, she could still regroup. The first thing was to make use of those resources, and get herself away from her enemy's heartland.
"Turning aside from our top story after yesterday's events, we can report a shock upset in the leadership of Nightstone Unlimited. Earlier today, taking advantage of the holiday trading lull, reclusive shareholder Alexander Thailog enacted a surprise hostile takeover, successfully acquiring sufficient stake in the company to force through a vote of no confidence on former CEO Dominique Destine. His actions have sent other investors into a whirlwind of nervous speculation. The firm, known for investments in genetics and agriculture as well as its popular coffee chain, indicates that despite the change in leadership it does not plan any dramatic shifts in the near future, barring the reorganization of a genetics lab described by managers as 'unproductive'. Dominique Destine could not be reached for comment.

Damn, Thailog beat us to breaking Demonas influence over Nightstone, meaning that while "Dominique Destine" is no longer able to use its ressources for any nefarious deeds, thecompany itself should still be considered a dangerous and hostile Prince/Duke-tier polity.

...Any hope that we can link those rumors about a purple "Super" to Nightstone in order to hurt their reputation?

"So this all just… goes away?" You ask.

"I wish it were that simple. I've ensured details on Demona leaked to the appropriate authorities; for the first time in living memory, someone on the FBI's 'informal' most wanted list has made it public. Images of Demona will be up across the country within the day. She really will be hunted now… not least by the Huntsclan. So far they seem to be staying quiet, possibly deciding their next move, but I don't expect them to sit idly."

"This… is bad for gargoyles, isn't it?"

"I'll do what I can." Xanatos replied. "But every inch Xanatos Enterprises sticks its neck out for gargoyles right now is less credibility it will have to do the long work later. People are scared. Terrified. I'll have my hands full helping the city deal with rioting."

You grimace. "Man, I can't believe this all really happened in like a day. Is this the sort of thing you have to manage all the time? I'm glad I don't have any crazy murderous enemies. Just a grumpy mayor and an ordinary tech company and a lizard who still doesn't know I exist. Things are usually pretty quiet around here."

There it is, guys:

David "I always have a plan" Xanatos PERSONALLY travelled halfway across the continent during a time he flatout admits his company is having all hands full with containing the fallout of Demonas attack just to meet up with the boss of the strike team that helped him out in a pinch while that very boss is still technically one of Xanatos´ most wild-card-y rivals despite our relatively cordial relations.

With that, he clearly shows us that he trusts and even likes us enough to talk frankly with us and expects us to not backstab him in this moment of relative vulnerability.

We definitely need to repay that trust in us.

[X] "Oh, that reminds me. I maaaay have accidentally broken probability for a bit."

Not even a hard decision for me at all.
 
You don't doubt that Doof would conglomerate his pawns into a Mega Chessatron.

Well, yes, but-

He would call it a Checkmate-inator, and it would somehow actually function.

Yeah, this.
"Demona, I-" Coldstone began.

"Go." she replied.

"I... what-"

"That's what you're waiting for isn't it? An excuse? Go then! Run to Thailog or whomever you think will take you. Go!"

Coldstone backed hurriedly out of the room, eyes never leaving Demona's pantherine snarl.

"All my allies have deserted me." Demona slumped, eyes filled with hatred.
Demona: drives her last ally away by screaming at them
Also Demona: All my allies have deserted me!
I read that and thought: "That is such a Demona move." Especially the part where she projects her own traits of being both deceptive and self-deceptive onto him first.

"Even the Minicons have abandoned me!" ~ Demona, absolutely.

Either that or he REALLY wanted to get that nickname out of the way asap.

Because stonks are more important that protecting people from genocidal paramilitaries right?

Right now, I just hope this quest lasts long enough to see the Huntsclan DEAD.
