♕ FIFTEENTH COMMAND | ACTION [ECRUTEAK CITY]

[determinator]

[Once upon a time (well, last year, but same thing, right?) Archer and Kimblee attacked the Kimono Girls in the Ecruteak Dance Theater.

Guess what? It's that time of year again! Except this time there's no Team Rocket attack, instead there's an army of tanks lined up on the outskirts of Ecruteak. Well, they're not exactly full-sized tanks. For some reason they're kind of tiny. Maybe Bradley didn't trust Archer with the full-sized tanks. Do you blame him?

Archer seems ridiculously pleased with himself anyway, as expected. He has his army back, and they're all alive! Somehow! He's learned not to question these things. For once Johto has done something right!]

Sir, are you sure this is a good idea?

[Archer turns to the man who asked, a rather generic Amestrian soldier, wearing the same uniform he is (minus the shoulder stripes and stars, of course). Archer merely smirks in response.]

Gentlemen, we're going to conquer this city in the name of Amestris.

[...Well, it'll really be in his name, but that's not the point! The soldier looks skeptical, but Archer's Bisharp, Queen, gives him a rather nasty look and he scampers off along with the others.]

Destroy anyone who stands in our way! This city will be ours!

[...Someone might want to stop him before he blows up all the landmarks...]

Comments

...okay, the fact that "bitty tanks" is now a legitimate tag has made my day

[alchemicals]

[GOD, KIMBLEY TENDS TO WAKE UP IN THE WEIRDEST CITIES, WHILE THE BEST SHIT POSSIBLE IS GOING ON

SNOW, OCEAN, NOW THOSE...RIDICULOUS TANKS

GOOD

MORNING

ARCHER

YOU HAVE A VERY AMUSED AND YET...SORT OF CONFUSED BFF DECIDING TO JUST KIND OF SHOVE SOME DUDES AND GET IN YOUR BUSINESS]

You'd think you'd learn not to start the party without me, Archer - like I'm going to let you have all the fun?

[allgamesendtoday]

Whose tanks are these? Whose?

[The man threatening one of the generic soldiers might look familiar, Archer. The suit’s a little different, but it’s still pretty obviously Cobra. The sword and voice, though? Those are pretty different. Also, he's not screaming at anyone.]

And for that matter, whose army is this? I demand to see whoever is in charge around here. They have committed a very serious offense by abducting the leader of Cobra Command, and I plan to rectify it. Immediately.

i regret nothing NOTHING

[[Anti-gentleman senses....tingling....! AHA!!

Why is it always whenever she's in Ecruteak that you find the need to ruin everything??]]

Archer!

[[YOU CAN HAVE A VERY QUAINT FLASH OF YELLOW ZOOMING PAST YOU

YOU MAY HAVE TANKS BUT SHE HAS A SCOOTER]]

What on earth do you think you're doing?!

[exeggutorhead]

[Well then, getting glitched all over the place might not be so annoying if it means he's going to come across things like this. There's what looks like one of those generic Amestrian soldiers approaching Archer, and when he reaches him giving the most casual not-really-much-of-a-salute ever.]

So, continuing Amestris' military conquests in a whole new world, sir?

[He's looking pretty amused. Man, if only the homunculi had more people like Archer the last four hundred years, their jobs would have been so much easier.]

[throughthedesert]

[Can you make out the tall man standing on top of a roof at the edge of the city, Archer? He doesn't have a Kimbley to throw to get your attention this time, but he does have both his arms. And a Flygon, hovering in the air a decent distance away from her new, very unhappy trainer.]

[And he is definitely wanting to stop you.]
