You Only Live Over And Over

[mech_and_mutt]

Let's face it: When you're caught in a Groundhog Day temporal loop, you end up with a curious combination of factors: An abundance of free time and a lack of consequences.

Suffice to say, the heroes have a lot of things they'll probably be trying... and not all of them will be in the name of preventing the calamity.

So let's hear 'em. Are they going to try and break into a bank vault just to see if they can do it? Steal an airship? Fight some hamsters? Try their coffee with cream instead of taking it black? Let's just get them all in one place.

So how are your characters going to be addressing their boredom bucket list?

Madhuri may... or may not... have tried to Cuban Pete townsfolk at one point.

If you don't get the reference...

[mech_and_mutt]

Well? Did it work?!

[songbird_slayer]

HAHA NAH

[plagueofshadows]

Plague Knight, one hundred percent, just spent an entire loop attempting to brew different potions using the essences of various Heroes of Light.

[songbird_slayer]

essences.

[plagueofshadows]

"Hmmm... Yes. This potion appears to make you sparkle."

[mech_and_mutt]

Is this going to lead to a Yzma situation?

[plagueofshadows]

Bahamut isn't supposed to be a giant LLAMA! He's SUPPOSED to be DEAD!!!

[mech_and_mutt]

Oh, riiiight.

The serum.

The serum for Bahamut.

The serum brewed specifically to kill Bahamut.

Bahamut's serum.

That serum?

[plagueofshadows]

I wonder what happens if I mix Red's essence with Niko's....

[aerospacecommander]

I love this.

[waningsigns]

What doesn't Frisk do? Well, they don't kill anyone, that one's totally off the table.

But as soon as they got bored of solving every problem that came their way, they started doing things like memorizing every square inch of Curti Center's architecture and flirting with deadly monsters. Multiple times. That hamster has to accept their compliments one of these loops.

[mech_and_mutt]

Even Ultros?!

[waningsigns]

They've already flirted with Ultros once. There's only so many times you can friendzone a tentacle monster!

At some point, Vimes has an angry argument with someone who isn't there, while the other Heroes of Light and Ramaa look on in confusion. He seems to be the only person who thinks that there's 'a bloody great skeleton who refuses to lift a finger to help' just over there.

He gets as far as "I don't care if it's an inconvenience to hoof it all the way out here you bony great-" before, mercifully, he is saved from further embarrassment by incineration.

Ena grows bolder through each iteration. One loop she grows so bold that she gains the balls confidence to send Ramaa a very long, very raunchy poem. She can't try this on Monika because she would remember.

Asgore is absolutely NOT getting into any shenanigans! You never know when the time loop will suddenly END, and he doesn't want to get stuck with something really, really awkward to explain.

He may try to improve on his pie making though.

[bleating_heart]

Near the end of the event, Asriel says fuck it and spend an entire loop just playing the N64 regain he found on christmas.

42 hours later the machine is smashed and he has a weary expression, and he spends the rest of the cycle drinking heavily and muttering about "fucking mask timetravel bullshit"

[failtsuninari]

He'll try to haggle for one but he won't say no to a little GTA.

Or maybe even try to make his own armada of airships?

He might just try to wrangle up cats to find a place for them or something. I'm sure he'll find something.

Castor and Corrin have a goddamned tea party one loop because seriously fuck that cult!
