THE MASTERMIND AU
NICK V. CN EDITION

It's time for Nick vs. CN's mastermind meme!

To those who aren't familiar, this is essentially an AU where your character is the one responsible for Nick v CN's Mutual Killing Game, and all of the carnage that came with it, from the kidnapping to the motives to the trials to the executions! And now, they have chosen to reveal themselves before the remaining members of their class at the final trial!

As such, you are free to play around with this as much as you would like; was your character just another pawn in the grand scheme of things, or did your character put everyone in the Killing Game for a different reason? What is your character's motivation for bringing despair? What do they intend to get out of this seemingly senseless killing? And what does the rest of the class have to do to stop the madness and go home?

There's probably going to be quite a bit of AUing from your character's original canon happening here to make them into the best harbingers of despair they can be, so feel free to go as nuts with it as you want to! And, of course, feel free to tag others with your character's reaction to their classmate's big reveal; it doesn't matter whether or not your character made it to endgame, have fun and mix up the survivor pool as much as you'd like!

Oh, and feel free to describe your character's sweet new Monobear-themed duds, too!!

[The stage has been set, it's time to light the lights, it's time to meet the mastermind.

A large stage, befitting of our tentacled friend, has been set before the students. He arrives before them in a long, tailored black-and-white jacket, reminiscent of a conductor. He raises one tentacle to silence the crowd, setting down a large box before him. The box remains covered for now, but he extracts a baton and begins to tap the box, preparing to conduct his mad symphony.]

Alright, barnacleheads! We've done a great job with the show so far, but now, it's time to wrap our love-ly performance up in a nice little bow! For, you see, we have reached the end of Act 3, and our hero couldn't be happier! He's achieved everything he's ever wanted, has all the prestige and popularity he could think of, and thus, it's time for our great big emotional climax!

[The mastermind raises his hand once more, causing a spotlight to fall upon him. His name is cast in lights. ]

After years of a miserable existence, he's finally earned his happy ending, folks! So, let's give it to him!

[There is a long silence, then...]

This is the weirdest dream I've had in awhile.

[Nope nooope he's just not believing he's awake right now.]

[tortellini]

Oh, Panda, I thought that too at first! I haven't been this happy in a long time, I figured that it had to be a dream! That I'd wake up next to those two idiots one morning and realize that this was just another sham.

[He's pretty goddamn enthusiastic.]

But the thing is, if this is a dream, I still haven't woken up!

[babyhater]

Why is this happening...

[Panda rubs his temple, already having enough of this.]

So tell me why you hated me so much in the first place? Can I ask that first?

[tortellini]

Haven't you ever heard of scapegoating?

[babyhater]

But why not someone who's actually suspicious like Ren? I said I couldn't kill anyone if my life depended on it!

[tortellini]

Ren was inevitably going to kill someone, and I needed you morons to keep dying if I wanted to keep this train going!

[babyhater]

What kind of plan is it that you need innocent people to die in order for you to be happy?!

[misseinstein]

[God what kind of ego do you NEED for this shit, this could rival Sissi in narcissism]

I think you're counting your chickens before they hatch - this is far from over!

[trustyboomerang]

[......................................................... Oh-kay.

This is really unexpected. To think Squiduck is the mastermind. Sokka rubs his eyes and finds that this is not a joke. Nope.]

This is really stupid, even for you.
