Season 25, Week 4
Indalecio
(Star Ocean: The Second Story)
 
Woe to all those who dare clash with Gabriel! The leader of God's Ten Wise Men has activated his powers for limitless slaughter, as he's faced down by a do-gooder of the lowest kind. Someone who seeks to purify their world... there's nothing Indalecio hates more in his life. Earthquake and Explosion are brutal, world-shattering spells, and the full pontential of these attacks will be set forth against the hapless Yuna, with wave after wave of magic. This shall crush the summoner from Spira and her help into painful, irreversible submission.

The High Summoner returns to action this week, against her preferred type of opponent: a would-be world destroying megalomaniac. Indalecio isn't complex: destroy universe, sling insane spells... nothing a hero hasn't seen before. For Yuna, the match will be very simple: Shell will reduce Indalecio's mighty magic to a breeze. From there, she has all the time in the world to set up for a Grand Summon: Anima's Oblivion will tear through Indalecio's unimpressive HP in mere seconds, taking Yuna to to the finals once again.

Ahhh, Indalecio, your talents are wasted upon you.

Indalecio's plan was brilliant, in it's way.

His opponent had two valid forms.

A "valid form" is less a physical concept, but more a metaphysical state of mind, a state of being where your very talents and power is changed by the flow of time.

Or, in Yuna's case, Rikku after a head-injury babbling at her for a few years.

At any rate, it is a simple matter for someone who has the resources of Nede at his fingertips(Granted, it exploded, but backups are a neccisity of life. After all, Indalecio himself is one.) to create a device to implant in someone that can change their very state of mind. In this case, freezing their form.

Of course, Cyril promptly betrayed Indalecio and told Yuna, but he expected that. (Cyril once ran off with spare change Indalecio gave him to get a soda. Talented, and intelligent enough to be useful to Indalecio, but not reliable.) After all, what could she do?

Yuna, indeed, did exactly nothing. But she had learned enough.

As the battle started, Indalecio, chuckling softly, shot Yuna with a simple dart, injecting the device into her. Within moments, her clothes had become substantially more scanty in a fanservicey transformation and she was acting substantially different.

Then she tried to change form, and failed. Repeatedly. Smiling the whole time. Indalecio laughed. What could she do?

Well, technically, she'd been class changed, from Summoner to Gunner. Over and over. And instantly reverted, due to the device.

However, she was successfully going through class changes. Just not staying in different classes. Which was fine, for her...

Since, after the fifth time this happened, she class-changed into Floral Fallal, due to having gone through all the gates on her Garment Grid while Indalecio was mocking her.

So, Indalecio's in the odd position of cheating, losing, and getting beaten up by a girl dressed up as a giant fanservicey flower all at once.

At last check, he was hard at work again. Seems he want to design a device that makes people think they're Zidane.

It seems to be working well on Cyril.
