Let him keep his weirdly childish hope for a little longer.

Nah let it all BURN!!! It is time for father to face the new realities that he is in, his ways are numbered, and the world is ever changing. Either he starts to grow up as a person or be left behind as a "man-child" with daddy issues

I think we can adjust to the new reality without fully changing the old ways, but...Yeah, we do need to face the truth.

So what benefits can we stand to get by selling the tape and having better relations with Deathgov?

Entryway into a lot more Occult stuff, The Music Industry, Rabid Bloodthirsty Metalheads who will buy our products. You know, the average Boomer Music stuff. Also Grandmama Stuffum is in the territory as well, so perhaps finding her
 
There might be wiggle room for us to flex our government contacts to take Spankulot under our own protection/imprisonment which could be cool and maybe allow us to help the Providence splinter group which could eventually allow for Spankulot to be cured or at least given his mind back.

To me that feels like something Father would do. Threaten to burn the world for trying to take away his buddy. But that also might not be possible.

Either way killing Spankulot is really going to mess us up emotionally and we should definitely be prepared for that. Meanwhile letting Spankulot live means Providence either has leverage on us or we have casus belli to hammer them hard because they hundred percent will play games that shouldn't be played with our buddy.

I lean towards selling the footage. Screw Black Knight. And Dethlok seem like they could be a good ally. Izzy's trait buff would be real nice too.
 
[X] Put him out of his misery

Many different factors lead me to this. One is in the name, just be merciful and end his suffering now before he goes through the indignity of being a Providence lab rat with all it entails.

Another is protecting future victims, look at the whole prison debacle and tell me it's fine to risk another one. Even if the genie is out of the bottle and ending the progenitor doesn't cure its spawn, at least we'll rest somewhat easy knowing the most powerful vector of the outbreak is gone.

Lastly, I don't think we can keep trying to easy Father into accepting the new reality, he's already losing it and blows keep on coming. Old friends abandon him left and right, he had a near breakdown to a global audience, and now he's seen another old friend lost to a fate worse and death and he took an entire prison's worth of people including innocents, potentially more. I'm not choosing to rip off the bandaid now because I think it's better for Father, I'm choosing to do it now because I just know that if we don't, someone else will and will be far nastier about it, possibly as soon as next turn.



Not gonna vote on the footage, I just couldn't make up my mind over it.
I will note that maybe offing Spankulot and selling the footage may result in burned bridge with Providence if combined. The latter hurts the organization at large and leaves a bad impression on Six, and the former likely burns a bridge with Rex, if I'm getting his personality right.

I think we need to keep him alive, because i think for father it will become harder even extremely harder to recruit any of his Soopervillains, if they don't know the context of why he has to kill Spankulot. And i think even our own units could see Father as a triger happy boss that could kill him at any moment.

Even people that knew him from before Grandaddy awoken. Seriouly it looks weirdly bad without the context Father kills his dad, then Spankulot, both villains, and one of them was one of his friends/minion. Who's next?

Seriously, we just have a interview in wich Father got destroyed by other villains of how things are know, and how his image as a superhero right know is projecting a different message of what He is normally.

So yeah, in my opinion, if you want to kill him do it, but i am sure that its going to cost us more globally than how are things now.....

Is GranmaStuffem, really in Florida?, i want the confirmation to change my vote

I like Dethklok better than whoever those other guys are. Besides, knowledge is power, better everyone has it.

We can fix latter but that will take time, Also Spankulot is a vampire, those tend to be hard to keep dead anyway.

Providence under Black Knight are working for a bunch of god-wannabes with delusions of grandeur, let them rot. I'm all for sparing Spankulot because hopefully with our connections we can get him more humane treatment.
 
Thanks for the update!

Mostly for narrative reasons. Father is quite lost right now, and seemed way more invested in Spankulot in this interlude than I expected (don't remember if there were show or previous quest mentions of this friendship). Either way, don't feel Father is quite hardened enough to murder an apparently close old friend.

As emotional a scene as it might've been, I'd rather keep him alive and, even if he might remain with the government however momentarily, we can see about getting him back later on. While the footage can be shelved for now and used as leverage later, for Spankulot or otherwise.

There is probably plenty of footage from the fight. It's a prison, there are security cameras everywhere and a "national hero" could get their footage.

I don't really want Black Knight to have access to him but Spankulot is our friend. He might be broken irreparably but even if Rex can't cure him now, i don't want to give up on him.

Edit: I'm guessing time is up for voting since 36 hours has passed since the post of the update

I'm highly suspicious about the putting him out of his misery option if only because this is the sort of situation tailor made for Van Kleiss to swoop on in through a Portal to nab a dangerous EVO unit while the defenders are undermanned and general chaos is spilling out into the city. Guy excels in recruiting people at their low points.

Uhhhhhh.

It's been a while, but I don't think Van Kleiss is portrayed as having the kind of durability necessary to run up to Father while he's continuously erupting in all-devouring hellfire and survive. Much less spend the additional needed time to wrestle the Spankubeast out of Father's hands while standing inside his kill aura.

EDIT: Like, I think there might have been something where Van Kleiss' consciousness is fused into the nanites suffusing Not-Latveria, so he has resurrective immortality as long as that remains the case? Still wouldn't keep the body trying to poach the Spankubeast from getting incinerated, though.
