Hey, everybody! I'm officially back from summer vacation. I know you all missed me. ;P

(Wait who are you

Whitty: Ruv, what did you do with my computer?!

Ruv: I'll be very honest. i have no motherfunkin idea.

Rain: what

22: "...You know what."

Rain: eh?

22: "...you caused this."

Rain: ok...?

22: "Now you gotta help fix it."

Rain: I"m sorry I don't get this

22: "You released the evil viruses, now you're gonna help me hunt them down."

Rain: oh, yeah I should get crypto for that

22: "...who?"

crypto: why do you always need me for stuff
Rain: becuase
crypto: yeah, yeah

22: "...ugh."

crypto: *stares at the portal* hmm

22: "It's not gonna close, so don't bother with it."

crypto: oh, I"m not just looking at it

Cory: *laughs nervously*

Ophelia: "I could say the same."

*22 looks out the window.*

22: "Almost there."

(Cory wraps his arms around Ophelia.)

*Ophelia kisses Cory.*

*22 silently tries to avoid watching. She seems uncomfortable.*

*The limo comes to a stop and 22 immediately gets out.*

Cory: ...?

Ophelia: "...22 is like that a lot. I think it's because she's never been in love."

Cory: Oh...
(Cory kisses Ophelia on the cheek.)

*Ophelia smiles.*
Ophelia: "...we should probably get out of the limo now, even though I'd much prefer to stay in here with you."

Cory: I-I'm a little scared to do this...

Ophelia: "Don't worry, Cory. Nothing's going to happen to you."

(Cory's shaking a bit.)
Cory: I d-don't wanna d-die...

*Ophelia envelops Cory in one of her signature super-warm-and-gooey ink hugs.*

Ophelia: "You're not gonna die, Cory! I'd sell my soul to the devil before I let anyone hurt you!"

(Cory's fear fades away.)

*Ophelia smiles. She carries Cory out of the limo.*

(I find Ophelia and Cory to be a perfect match because Cory's scared personality is a perfect counter to Ophelia's excessively clingy personality.)

(Cory smiles.)

(Yeah, they're perfect for each other.)

*Ophelia, carrying Cory -bridal style, by the way- follows 22 into a warehouse.*

(Cory looks around, looking a bit on edge.)

*The warehouse is stocked with all sorts of high-tech hunting equipment, from net crossbows to taser rifles to a super-complex GPS.*

22: "Welcome to the Stockpile."

Cory: W-wow...

22: "I used to store my stuff here, before I got stuck in the Digiscape and died."

*22 glances at some kind of stasis chamber in the middle of the room. A young woman floats inside of it, looking peaceful but empty inside.*

Cory: Who's that...?

22: "Do you have a phone with you? I need to call someone."

(Cory hands her his phone.)

*22 quickly dials a number.*

*A few minutes later, a limousine pulls up and Ophelia steps out.*

Ophelia: "You called?"

Cory: H-hi, Ophelia!

Ophelia: "Hi, Cory!"

*Ophelia wraps Cory in a hug.*

22: "Oh, you two know each other?"

(Cory hugs back.)

*Ophelia eventually pulls away.*

Ophelia: "So... evil virus hunting. That's a new one for me."

Cory: By the way, Ophelia, this definitely was not caused by me. Heh heh...

Ophelia: "Okay. I believe you. I know you wouldn't lie to me."

22: "Both of you get in the limo, we have some errands to run."

Cory: Wait a second. I have a 'friend' who could help us.

22: "...Cory."

(Cory seems scared.)
Cory: H-h-hi...!

22: "...did you cause this?"

Cory: *sweating* N-n-no, I...

22: "...okay then. Mind helping me fix this?"

Cory: *still sweating* I p-promise you I didn't c-cause it...

22: "Okay. I trust you."

(Cory sighs of relief.)

22: "But I'm gonna need you to help me fix this."

Cory: O-okay!

22: "That's... that's me. Or at least what's left of me. My mind is gone but my body is preserved."

Ophelia: "You look quite pretty."

22: "Thanks."

Cory: Wow...

*22 walks away from the chamber and starts gathering supplies.*

(Cory watches.)

*22 ends up carrying so much stuff that she can barely stand.*

Cory: Do you... Need some help?

22: "Yes..."

Cory: Alright!
(Cory hops to the ground and offers to carry a few things.)

22: "Get in the limo. You can explain about this friend on the way to the warehouse."

*22 and Ophelia climb into the limo.*

(Cory gets in as well, and sits very close to Ophelia.)

*Ophelia grins and puts her arm around Cory. She signals for the driver to go.*

22: "So, who's this friend?"

(Cory moves a bit closer to Ophelia.)
Cory: Well, he's not exactly a friend... But... When his plan malfunctioned and the Chaos Heart was destroyed, I... I couldn't stand seeing him injured like that, and... Well... I saved him. He may not have deserved to be saved, but... I was too good-hearted to let him die. So, now he helps me.
(Cory snuggles up to Ophelia.)

*Ophelia pats Cory's head.*

Ophelia: "You're as adorable as ever."

22: "...are you talking about Dimentio?"

Cory: How did you...?
(Cory snuggles up a bit closer.)

22: "We hear stories in the Digiscape. Especially stories about chaos mages like Dimentio."

*Ophelia picks Cory up and sets him in her lap.*

(Cory seems very comfortable, and very happy.)

*Ophelia smiles.*

22: "You two are cute together. I'm happy for you."

Cory: Ophelia, I've never met anyone who makes me as happy as you do.
