Act 1, Scene 45 - The Boys are Back in Town

[speeding]

Dear Fishbowl,

Apparently it's war now. Well trust me, I intend to bring it.

Love and Kisses,

Your Evil Overlord

P.S. Cross is a fatty.

P.P.S. Hi guys. What's up?

P.P.P.S. So apparently I accidentally all our stuff, house, savings, you know. Anyone interested in the Evil Overlord Charity Fund? It involves you, me and a cup of coffee, to start with.

He focuses on the important things

You accidentally all your stuff? Accidentally what?

Clearly.

[speeding]

Accidentally disappeared. It. Me. You know how it goes.

[Don't mind the spot or two of dampness that turns up on the page while she's staring at it. It's raining wherever she's sitting. Obviously.]

You have been gone a long time, oh great and powerful Overlord. Your subjects sorely missed your guidance.

[speeding]

[Not... Going to comment on the wetness. He's covering his general confusion and upset as he always does, humor.]

Sorry, had to take a vacay from all the serious Evil Overlording business. Unplanned, wasn't really worth it. Prices were insane, and you wouldn't believe the weather.

How you been, Fred?

[live_ringer]

[He... has to pause for a moment because he can hardly believe the kid has come back along with Cross, much less with memories. It's almost kind of fishy, but that's not what he's going to focus on right now.]

Well, damn. They'll just let anyone back in these days, won't they?

[speeding]

[You and him both find it pretty weird dude. But light hearted is the way.]

Seriously, the screening process just ain't what it used to be. Looks like things got lax in my absence.

[crownofsnow.livejournal.com]

For the last time! I AM NOT FAT!

And I might have the fund started, I'd getting back to work as soon as I can.

[speeding]

Sorry I couldn't hear you over the sound of om nom nom.

Yeah. Jobs sound good I guess.

[blue-shields.livejournal.com]

Took you long enough, Your Majesty.

[speeding]

What can I say, royalty likes to take the scenic route--how long was long enough, anyway?

She is just too intrigued to stay out of this one. XD

[viva-la-materia.livejournal.com]

Who're you?

<3!

[speeding]

Name's Dash. Resident Overlord. Apparently I've been a bit absent. Overslept my alarm.

You?

[books-and-toads.livejournal.com]

Evil Overlord? And here I was wondering what we were missing. Clearly, you're the man for the job.

[speeding]

This place just doesn't function right without me. It's a tough job but someone's gotta step up.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Hey, you! It's about time. I was hoping to see your handwriting again.

[speeding]

Hey Short Stack, been holding down the fort while I napped?

[wayofflowers.livejournal.com]

[Ink drip.]

Dash?

[Best to, y'know. Confirm.]

[speeding]

The one and only. Bellflower?

[One word is a little tough to go on for recognition.]

[esoteric_rose.livejournal.com]

The Sphere has descended into chaos without your leadership.

[speeding]

I knew it. It's going to be so hard to get the peons back in line. Got any gossip for my Juli?

[spandexisyouth]

Dash!

I am interested in the Charity Fund. Do you remember where I live?

Oh! I have part of my name. I am Gai, instead of Youth.

[speeding]

Gai! Nice. Sounds French? Congrats on your names Gai.

I sure do, and if you're offering coffee or a real shower I can be there five minutes ago.

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

Evil Overlord? It appears that no one is taking this seriously, so this claim is merely a jest?

[speeding]

Hey, there's nothing joking about my Evil-y Overlord-y-ness. Es. Ness.

Ness?

[longnosedliar.livejournal.com]

Whoa, you're back after so long? With MEMORIES? NO WAY!!!!

[...yes this is worthy of screeching. He then adds three more exclamation points to NO WAY.]

You are way too casual for this. Welcome back! Wait, do you remember me? I'm Sniper!

[speeding]

You think it's weird for you guys...

[But this made him laugh. Thanks bro.]

Yeah I remember. M.C. What's up dude?

[lingeringlegacy]

Welcome back, Tommy. Or Dash. Most people seem to prefer Dash.

Did you see the coffee machine in the Hall of Beginnings?

[speeding]

It's what I went by for longest. Here. But I'm glad someone remembers my name.

I did! Was that you?

[crowsloveapples.livejournal.com]

I think I remember you...

Do you want some food from the Farm?

[speeding]

Food would be a amazing little buddy--Apple right?

[redhead-rabbit.livejournal.com]

No waaay.

[speeding]

Waaaay.

You're still here? Man you don't know when to quit a tree.

[snowburned.livejournal.com]

DASH!

[She is so very :D :D :D]

[speeding]

KZ! It's good to see your writing shorty.

[extantlaw.livejournal.com]

Dash.

I believe that some of your belongings are still in storage, if you require them.

[Yeah that's about as awkward a welcome back as you can get. But he's a bit torn since he had half-hoped that you had been returned to your own world safely. And plus, the fact that you returned after such a long time has somewhat rekindled a hope of his own that he has been deliberately crushing for months.]

[speeding]

That would be kind of totally awesome J-Dawg, I am not digging the greeting getup.
