A Philosophical Experiment
~Sei

It's an age-old question that has been discussed by great minds since the dawn of time: What happens when an irresistable force meets an immovable object?

Well, since the DL has in its throngs some of the greatest minds in the RPG multiverse who just happened to get drunk a few hours ago, they decided to put that question to rest once and for all (or at least see some bloody carnage and pretty explosions. They've always been fond of that).

On the side of the irresistible force: The vampire lord, Brahms. This powerful fighter has been treated to every single attack buffing enhancement available in the DL, from Hypers to Bikills to Berserk to a GF transplant with 100 Ultimas in Strength to a whole bunch of other stuff to make him stronger, buffer, meaner, nastier, and a whole lot deadlier than ever. He will be using Bloody Curse for this experiment, an already devastating technique that could completely destroy galaxies at this point.

And on the side of the immovable object: the Goddess Myria, formerly and occasionally still known as Tyr. Her ability to laugh at any physical attacks is well-known, but since that's not enough for this experiment, she's also been given every possible defense raising enhancement in the DL. Shields, Uppers, Mighty Guards, Wall Runes and a whole ton of other stuff that raises her defense to the heavens and beyond (except the attack nulling ones like Chaos Shield and Vanish, since that would make this experiment pointless). She could now sit in the middle of a million exploding stars and only get a mild sun tan at most.

Brahms will get one shot and one shot alone to see if he can kill Myria! Can a blow that would disintegrate gods obliterate a shield that not even the gods can pierce?
  • The Bloody Curse is bloody effective as Brahms' one single blow proved to be too much for Myria.
  • Myria stands firm, as not even Brahms' technique could slay the nigh-invulnerable Goddess.

Regardless of the in-conceivable defense bonuses Myria is subject too, the though of Junctioning 100 Ultima into Brahms, who already can single-handedly solo most of the Seraphic gate bosses (at least mine seemed capable of), is just too much to believe.

The Irresistable Force: 38
The Immovable Object: 32

Unfortunately, several FF Berserks prevent the user from performing special attacks, techniques, or anything of the sort.

So Brahms attacked with a basic physical instead. The universe held its breath as a punch that could shatter planets flew towards

Myria. Time slowed down. The punch moved forwards, glacially, unerringly towards its destination...

There was no chance of missing. Not with some Robot Taisen Love in effect.

So it came as a complete surprise when he whiffed anyway, making Myria the winner.

See, the universe doesn't *like* paradoxes. Or attempts to solve age-old quandaries.

So when Brahms attacked, the damage simply didn't happen.

Well, not to Myria, anyway.

The universe still has to obey the laws of conservation, and so - rather than cancel the damage outright, it was instead

transferred to a more likely target.

And *nobody* in the DL is more likely to take a completely random universe-obliterating damage-cap-busting enough-nines-to-fill-

three-pages-of-text-in-damage shot to the gonads than the unluckiest man alive, Ashton Anchors...

...

...

... Except for the unluckiest *monkeyboy* alive, Zidane, who is now a fine mist spread out over several million light years.

Nobody knows *how* the healers are going to bring him back from this one.

while it would please me to launch into a long diatribe about why Brahms is going to fail miserably it's basically unneccesary. Because simplicity is always best and often more humorous than a more complex alternative. I say all of that to say this. Brahm's goal is to kill Myria in one shot. Myria is a BOF boss. BOF bosses can't be killed in one hit because they get second wind.
And yes, for those of you that are curious, Brahms is feeling very VERY stupid right now.
