14 A New Member, and Another One

Retired Loli Sovereign: "I'm bored."

Witch of the Void: "Aren't you supposed to be in class right now?"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Just because I'm supposed to be, doesn't mean I am. But I am physically at school for what it's worth."

Mr Fool: "Why even spend money on tuition if you don't even attend class. Why do you even go to school anyway?"

Advocate of Gender Equality: "Yeah, think about us poor penny pinchers. When I hear about you wasting money like that it makes me remember how poor I am. I'm living out of a freaking stable! And then there's this useless Goddess who wastes all the money we get on alcohol!"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Not my problem, just make more money."

Black Star: "Making money is pretty easy. Just try harder."

Lightning Archpriestess: "+1. I was able to make some money pretty easily."

Mr Fool: "..."

Advocate of Gender Equality: "..."

Konakona: "Unlike the two rich ones, the rest of us don't have tens of thousands of people giving us money or the inheritance of the entire world."

Teriri: "Unlike Huang Luan, you should actually be in class right now, shouldn't you?"

Konakona: "Lunch."

Great Teacher Onizuka: "What should I do to hold back the urge to beat my students."

Teriri: "Wait, what?"

Witch of the Void: "Just don't cause any serious harm."

Great Teacher Onizuka: "They photoshopped a picture of me and the vice-principal together… I'm not gonna say anymore."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Did you not watch your own anime? You should have seen this coming."

Great Teacher Onizuka: "Oh, uh… oops. I forgot about that."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Of course you did."

Konakona: "So which end of a chocolate cornet is the head? The thin part or the thick part?"

Great Teacher Onizuka: "Thick."

Teriri: "Thin."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Yes."

Lightning Archpriestess: "Doesn't the perception usually change depending on the person."

Konakona: "Very helpful, I've learned nothing."

[Yokai Supreme Commander has joined the Dimensional Chat Group.]

Advocate of Gender Equality: "Another newcomer? It hasn't been long since the tallest of the shortest joined the group. And this kinda came out from nowhere."

Lightning Archpriestess: "..."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "So anyway, why bother which end is the head when you can just eat the whole thing at once and be done with it. There, no internal struggle on which end of a chocolate cornet is the head."

Mr Fool: "Are you really going to ignore the new member like that. And welcome Yokai Supreme Commander."

Yokai Supreme Commander: "That panel thing said I could find pretty girls who would attend to my every need. Bring them out."

Konakona: "I already don't like him."

Witch of the Void: "+1"

Lightning Archpriestess: "+1"

Teriri: "+1"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "You have been lied to."

Mr Fool: "He reminds me a bit of Onizuka, very true to his desires."

Great Teacher Onizuka: "I'm not that bad… Am I?"

Yokai Supreme Commander: "Well that's enough joking around. I knew it was a poor attempt to get me to join. So what is this thing?"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Welcome to the Dimensional Chat Group. I'm the admin for whatever reason and I have basically no power over this thing. Anyway. This is a chat group that connects various worlds together. And that's pretty much all it is, a chat group. There's a daily login lottery to get some points that can be used in the Shop section. Oh and apparently where all characters from fictional works in our respective worlds, you can see your own story in the shop for free."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Gonna pin that message so I never need to do it again. So who are you? I'm too lazy to go to the shop."

Witch of the Void: "Onizuka and the newcomer aren't the only ones true to their desires. Though you're considerably less crude."

Yokai Supreme Commander: "I am Nurarihyon, Supreme Commander of the Nura Clan. Although I am currently only in the position until my grandson is capable of taking over."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "I already had a poor impression and knowing who you are made it worse."

Advocate of Gender Equality: "Why? He hasn't done anything."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "There's a Nurarihyon in my world. In the past, he would sneak into where I lived at the time and eat my snacks."

Yokai Supreme Commander: "It would seem I don't change much between worlds."

[God-Emperor of Mankind has joined the Dimensional Chat Group.]

Konakona: "Another one?"

Witch of the Void: "Their name reminds me of Huang Luan. Doesn't she have a similar title?"

God-Emperor of Mankind: "Tzeentch come out and show yourself, I know this is your doing."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "@God-Emperor of Mankind, go read the pinned post. Then ask your questions."

[God-Emperor of Mankind has been muted for 3 minutes.]

Mr Fool: "Since when could you mute people?"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Since forever."

Teriri: "So does anyone know who this next new member is?"

Advocate of Gender Equality: "I just checked the shop and there's a bunch of new games and books available for free. probably where the new guy is from. There's also a bunch of new abilities and stuff we can buy with points. I'd guess these are also from the newbie's world. But some of them don't really make much sense and their descriptions aren't saying much."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "I knew who he was from his first words in the chat. The Emperor of Man from Warhammer 40,000. He's the head of state and is worshipped as a God in the Imperium of Man, an interstellar empire."

Konakona: "Do they have giant robot space battles like in Gundam? How is it living in space, is it as cool as in anime?"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Heh."

Advocate of Gender Equality: "Flag alert! Something is clearly wrong!"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "In reality, he's a barely living corpse, sustained by a complex life support system, his strong psychic power, and the sacrifice of 1,000 souls a day. Despite the massive territory the Imperium holds, they're on their last legs with the threat of extinction being ever-present. The Imperium itself is a horrible place to live. A xenophobic and fascist totalitarian state that's full of fanatical zealots that shun technological progress and innovation."

Teriri: "Yeah, that sounds bad."

Yokai Supreme Commander: "You seem to know a lot, Huang Luan was it?"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "I play the tabletop game. I tried to get Onioni into it in the past, but he was too much of an idiot to handle a tabletop game like Warhammer 40k back then, not that he's improved much since."

Great Teacher Onizuka: "Hey! I could totally play if I wanted, I just didn't want to. I was smart enough to get a job as a teacher after all."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "You paid me to do your high school exams and even for me to sit in and do your college entrance exams."

[Great Teacher Onizuka is now offline.]

Retired Loli Sovereign: "He ran away…"

Konakona: "I thought he said your grades weren't much better than his?"

Retired Loli Sovereign: "They weren't, but I was still at the top of the class, not that it means much given the class average was 10 points out of 100. But my grades were only bad because I handed in half-complete papers."

God-Emperor of Mankind: "So my world is nought but a game for the enjoyment of others, is it? So be it, the ruinous powers treat the world as a game for them to play, this is no different. I have played all the games relevant to Warhammer 40,000 and read all the books, the media themselves remind me of ancient Terra and the entertainment from the Golden Age. Unfortunately, all these events have already passed in the Materium, little for me to make use of."

Advocate of Gender Equality: "I know speedrunning is some serious business but that was way too fast!"

God-Emperor of Mankind: "My physical body may be in the Materium, but the majority of my existence lay in the Immaterium, where time is absent. Three minutes have passed for you, but for me, a far greater time has passed.

Retired Loli Sovereign: "You seem… better than when you spoke with Guilliman."

God-Emperor of Mankind: "My consciousness is shattered and fragmented, my attention focused on the Webway and the Astronomicon. Yet when communing through this so-called Dimensional Chat Group, my consciousness is whole and my workings with the interface do not interfere with the Webway or the Astronomicon. Whatever technology this is, it transcends anything from the Golden age."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "I've always wanted to know, how do you feel knowing that the Imperium treats you as a God despite you actively stomping out all religion and personally denying such claims?"

God-Emperor of Mankind: "Abhorrent. The Imperium is but a shadow of its former glory. But it is their faith that barely keeps my life going and in turn, staves humanity off from destruction for one more day. And you, I've looked back at your chat history, you style yourself the Emperor of Humanity and the Earth, yet those titles belong to me."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "We're in completely different worlds, don't sweat it. And I've also been keeping humanity safe… when I feel like it. Moreover, I'm your elder by around 40-50,000 years, so rightfully these titles are first and foremost, mine."

The chat quickly devolved into a childish argument between the Emperors, completely unbecoming of their status. But Huang Luan soon made use of the mute function and declared her victory.

Lightning Archpriestess: "Can someone explain to me what this 'WAAAGH!' thing is in the shop? All it says under the description is that it will connect you to Ork gestalt and that it can be given to others unrelated to the chat group. It's pretty cheap, only 10 points, so I was a bit curious."

Retired Loli Sovereign: "The WAAGH! Is a very complicated and sophisticated thing, for you see Orks are very complicated and sophisticated creatures."

The Emperor of Man wants to refute that claim, but none of his messages goes through. He has no one to blame but himself for trying to get into a verbal argument against someone with admin privileges. Thankfully for the Emperor someone in the chat is there to refute Huang Luan.

Konakona: "I just looked it up, she's lying. Orks are kinda stupid and very simple creatures, they just want to beat everyone over the head. WAAGH can mean a lot of things but in this case, I think it refers to the Ork gestalt psychic field. The more Orks the bigger the field is. From what I gathered on some quick google searches, it means that if we buy it we will benefit from the Ork power of belief, as long as enough Orks believe something to be true then it will be true."

[Konakona has been muted for 3 minutes.]

Retired Loli Sovereign: "Does anyone else wish to challenge my authority?"

Of course, no one answered.
