Day 40 END (EPIC First + GRPS Tribute?)

[meilleurekimiko]

Before anything else:
- Nanako and Johnny go on vacation for a week.

Stopping the Purple Blaze of Terror: Time is Most Precious:
- Brie ends up having a dream, and is in a city that's in ruins (implied to be Poi) and runs into Nyyrikki in the dream. They talk for a bit, with Brie not quite believing him at first.
- The same is done with Rarabon and Treyl, although the former gets her to think a little.
- Its not until she runs into the Exodus Bureau members on her gem + Paririna that she finally gets it.
-- One point that is frequently made in the dream sequence is that Brie's trying to be someone she isn't.
- Kokumi points out to Brie that Rai's time is short, and that she better start using her leadership skills as Rai won't be able to at some point.
- Eventually Kimi shows up and sets her right.

Conclusion?:
- Mina burns the fish (WHAT ELSE IS NEW?!), yet cooked Angel Food cake for Anxo. Then the folks in the lobby try to watch TV.
-- Well it doesn't quite end well.
- Galen invites Charitee over for lunch after Charitee has trouble with one of her anthousais.
- Brie goes to 8com to train.

Important:
- All the chars who appeared in Brie's dream are relevant to the scenes she notices during it:
Nyyrikki: Cansycia (his hometown) was destroyed.
Rarabon (more so than Treyl as the poisoning of Muramese didn't really affect her): Muramese's water supply got poisoned, which led to many deaths (including Lady Riana's).
Mikoto, Tabi, and Paririna (more so Mikoto than the other two): Many of the EXODUS admins were killed by Ilska.
- The football commercial towards the end hints towards the tournament Anxo's gonna play in.

Cron At Work:
- Cron helps fix various watches and gets some of the weirdest customers. At least its a slow day for him on his first day at work.

Shoutouts/Refs:
- Paririna?! Doing a Brightslap?!
- Kimi? Talking about a book being overdue? RUN BRIE RUN she's killed 75% of the people who've had overdue books!
- Burned down city? (Cansycia) Poisoned water? (Muramese Kingdom) Dead admins students? (most of the Exodus Bureau Admin's fates vs. Ilska) This must be some kind of referenception.
- A RED GUY is the Fire Chief?!
- Apparently Cron helped out Captain Crackcon!!
- Rockwell would be proud.
-- So would Kash. Aw crap what? I ALWAYS FEEL LIKE SOMEBODY'S WATCHING ME!!
- Head-On?! OH HELL WHY.
-- Anxo wasn't amused, then Tina flipped out.
- "Yo dawg. I heard you like NC outbursts. So we put a NC outburst in a NC outburst so you can RAAAGE while you RAAAGE". Here, have fun with this one:
Tina: A...Head-On commercial...
Anxo: [He recreates the TV now and it's off]
Tina: A...Head-On commercial?! THEY HAD THE BALLS TO FOLLOW UP AN AWESOME COMMERCIAL WITH...A HEAD-ON COMMERCIAL?! NO!! NO!! DOES NOT COMPUTE!! DOES NOT COMPUTE!!
Setsuna: ...it's just a commercial
Setsuna: A really annoying one, but still...
Anxo: I could call you out on the Bat Credit Card-like outburst.
Tina: ...
Anxo: But that is an annoying commercial.
Tina: <.<
Tina: >.>
Tina: [She pulls out her credit card] You mean one of these?
Anxo: *ahem* A BAT CREDIT CARD?! I'LL KILL YOU!
- The anthousai mentions Barbara Gordon? OH NOS, ITS ORACLE.
- Charitee then dares to mention Oracle Arena.
- Charitee threatens an anthousai with kiwi juice! Alas Nakiko's Sekava's bane from Iniala has made an appearance.
-- Its really not its bane, its more like Nakiko loves kiwis. Felicia figured out Nakiko's likes and dislikes off her journal. Doing such will cause the Nakiko persona to surface for a bit.
- The ED for Day 40 is Shinkuu no Diamond Crevasse, yet another song by May'n from Macross Frontier.
-- Mina herself does a cover of this song!

WTH?!:
- "Can Captain Crackcon even speak legible English?"
-- Nooooooooooope.
- "Why didn't Treyl fit in the dream sequence? I felt she fit in just fine because of the destroyed city"
-- Sorry Josh, but Treyl did not fit because Vagabann City wasn't actually destroyed. It was more like all its inhabitants besides the fighters were infected with YB Cells so if they didn't retreat to Neo Kirstein Weil, they would've been infected too.
