Let 'em say we're crazy, I don't care about that!

Who: Everyone!
What: The final day. Moonfall. Twenty-Four hours remain. How do you spend it?
When: The 30th, all day
Where: Anywhere
Summary: The last day. The end has come. The moon is coming down and piercing the barrier. Nothing can stop it.
Rating: It will vary.


Details are here. But here's a recap and expansion!

By the time morning hits Luceti, the Moon has begun to breach the barrier, noticeable by how the barrier will fluctuate about the Moon's face in strange ribbons of energy. The oceans and lakes begin to rage as they are caught by the Moon's gravity. The ground begins to quake in an unsettling way. Small and harmless tremors that will slowly intensify over the course of the day. With the Moon already partway through the barrier, it will be noticeable that it is not quite as large as the real Moon. Though quite vast, the Moon itself does is not quite the entire size of Luceti, but is large enough to span the entire village and more. The Moon's angered face does not cease for a moment, even as it becomes the only sight in the sky.

Yet it remains in the sky, slowly breaking through the barrier, and proving indestructible in spite of all that is thrown at it. In the evening it will begin to cause gravitational disturbances, drawing up debris and small objects into the air. When it finally reaches midnight, the bottom of the Moon will be one mile above Luceti. At that point, all will suddenly black out and know no more. What becomes of the Moon? Does Luceti go splat? Will CJ finally get his moon rocks? Stay tuned!

Well, whatever you say, Doc. At this point, whatever we've got, we'd better use. That dumb thing isn't backing off!

[Kazooie tosses her neck almost flippantly.]

So what do you load this "bomb" with, anyway?

[notshadowfever.livejournal.com]

Oh, you know! Just a few nefarious explosive agents. Unfortunately, it isn't quite finished yet. [Eggman finishes calibrating the cannon and turns to Kazooie dramatically.] This is where you come in! I need to borrow a few of your explosive eggs to use as a detonator!

[talontrot]

"Borrow"? Eggy, I dunno what you think I can do with 'em, but I can't just hack 'em up whenever I want once I've grabbed them.

You tell me where to put the Eggs, and I'll put 'em there!

[It is weird cooperating with a villain, but hey. This is a time of crisis, if there ever was one.]

[notshadowfever.livejournal.com]

Well how do you expect me to know how these things work?!

[Eggman rubs his hands together.] Just throw them straight in the cannon! My excellent egg exploding agent will do the rest! [Except fire the cannon. Nope, you have to do that manually.]

[talontrot]

Fine, egghead! I'll put the dumb things in your cannon.

[Kazooie cranes her neck, angling her beak until it's about level with the cannon's interior, and aims a Grenade Egg inside. With a short, sharp cry, she spits the Egg into the cannon.

... Then she waits for... well, whatever the heck is supposed to happen.]

[Eggman winces as he sees Kazooie spit that egg into the cannon. He's never going to get over how gross that is. At least she didn't use the other hole.

After, he grins excitedly and runs behind the cannon, checking its aim one last time.]

Alright! Stand back!

Egg Cannon ready! Aim! Fire!

[Eggman smacks a button on the weapon and points dramatically towards the moon, as if to direct his shot. Until it lands on its target, he stares in anticipation.

Although it might be difficult to see the exact composition of his bomb, the explosion it causes as it hits the moon's surface is significantly larger than that of a regular grenade egg.]

1/2

[...

She has to admit, that is pretty impressive.

Kazooie stares in some equal parts mild admiration, horror, wonder and amusement as Eggman gesticulates wildly and the Grenade Egg/bomb cannon horror explodes against the surface of the moon.

There is no way that couldn't have done something...]

2/2 *derp*

[talontrot]

[... Only then, when the dust clears, does she realize the moon was entirely unscathed. There isn't even a scratch on its surface.]

Oh, for - come on! This is insane! How the heck are we supposed to do anything?!

[notshadowfever.livejournal.com]

What?! This is impossible! Grrrr! [Eggman flails about in anger as he sees the moon doesn't even have a pockmark on its surface to show for his efforts. Still, it's not over yet. He turns back to Kazooie.]

It's not over yet! Load more eggs! We'll unload everything we've got at that blasted moon!

[talontrot]

[At this point Kazooie is as angry as he is. She promptly sticks her beak into the cannon and spews as many Grenade Eggs as she can spare into it, eyes crackling with defiance.]

Let 'er rip, Doc! We'll take this hunk of rock down whether it likes it or not, and wipe that dumb expression right off its ugly pockmarked face!
