Epic Superstar Saga Adventure Part 7

[backupdump002]

My parents and I went on one of our three mile walks, which we haven't done in a while. I can already tell I'm going to feel this in the morning.

In other news, I now declare it time for more Superstar Saga.

Well, the Oho Jee at least seem... friendly enough.




it means you're a COMPLETE FAILURE wait no






HAY WHERE DO YOU GUYS WANT ME TO PUT THIS ARMFUL OF BURNING TORCHES









Unfortunately, it didn't even occur to me to set any Oho Jee on fire while I was here. NEXT TIME




The radios?



NOOOOOO NOOOOO YOU GUYS ARE FIIIIIIINE



Like a crunchy taco



Man is that rock made of metal or something. Seriously look at that.
ANYWAY you need to upgrade your hammers to break that kind of rock. We will eventuallyyy





THANKS



doo dee doo strolling into a mysterious palace



Element Palace, which is sort of weird and creepy. HOW REASSURING




I hear that. Man I'd love to just take a nap or something but that'd screw up my sleep schedule



I DON'T KNOOOOOWWWWWW *dramatic sobbing*



You are you.




dum dee dum breaking random things in palaces doo dee doo



on second thought maybe that wasn't such a good idea







AAAAAAAAAAAA this guy totally reminds me of a Xatu and I don't know why







AND Y'KNOW IF YOU WERE GONNA BE LATE YOU COULD HAVE AT LEAST CALLED






IT SOUNDED LIKE A FUN IDEA, I DUNNO








Haha, that's a great :/ face.









You're a man after my own heart, Firebrand guy.




SO WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO THIS




OW FIRE IS HOT







ooooooooooooooooooooo









I'm not sure what it is about that whole bit of dialogue that makes me laugh so much.












WOOOOOOO I'm amazed his gloves haven't burned off by now




OH BOY





Goodbye, Firebrand instructor.





Luigi: So what'd you do in there, anyway?
Mario: Eh, nothing important.



using our ~powers~



To the Thunder Palace!





!!!!



Awwwwww.






BREAKING THINGS, MY FAVORITE PASTTIME



hey did someone turn out the lights




WTF AAAAAAAAA










YEAH WHATEVER HEY IS THIS LIKE ONE OF THEM ELECTRIC SPHERE THINGS YOU SEE AT SCIENCE MUSEUMS




DON'T TOUCH ME










PUN INTENDED Y/N?



Luigi: :D






WOO ALRIGHT











I don't know why, but him lifting a finger into the air when he does Thunderhand makes me laugh. It's like BEHOOOOLD





Like... a person!




huh what









WOO YEAH ALRIGHT



goin' inside the tubes




OW JESUS



And into the ocean we go! Ocean music.



SOMETHING ABOUT THIS IMAGE DOESN'T MAKE SENSE






COME BAAAAAAAACK



god luigi and his insane strength



Oh hey, for some reason I got a Spike Badge from that even though I technically didn't kill the beanie. Weird. ANYWAY this would be useful if the badge I had now wasn't better.



oooo, nice.




LET'S BLOW THIS POPSICLE STAND





Bowser and Fawful/Cackletta are A-OK!
SORT OF












GET SOME EYEDROPS






blarrrrrrrrrr



MY EYES



And we're back!




PEASLEY




Shameful silence. YOU TWO SHOULD BE ASHAMED, JUMPING ON BEANSTARS LIKE A COUPLE OF HOOLIGANS







*stares wistfully into the sunset*










DUN
DUN
DUUUUUNNNNNNNN






nod










I wish my airport had signs like that!







and by "repairs" we mean "piranha plants"






NO NOT MY SODA








Yep, those sure are Piranha Plants.




HNRRRRRRRRRRG





Hey Piranha Plants aren't disgusting I like them





LUIGI COME ON ALREADY BOINGBOING

SHLUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRPPPPPP



THAT LOOKS GOOD




To get rid of Piranha Plants you just shoot water at them and electrocute them. You can battle them, but they just come back.







Thank you, botanist.




After a bit more weeding...



OH JESUS



MOM PIRANHA
Okay, so when their skin is all red then that means they have fire attacks and are weak against lightning, so have Luigi just run up and shock the crap out of them. Or just the mom, actually, since her babies respawn and I think the mom does this special attack if you hit them, anyway.



She'll sometimes shoot this ball of energy at you, which you can just whack back at her. It'll cause damage to both her and her babies.



She also randomly heals herself at points. OH GREAT A HEALING BOSS, MY FAVORITE KIND



WHY DID I THINK JUMPING ON THEM WOULD WORK



When they turn blue, that's just the reverse of when they're red -- they're weak against fire and use lightning attacks. Have Mario burn them.



And POW crisis averted








MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!











Chattin' with the beanguys







Heh, a voice clip of her going "Mario! Luigi!" plays here.





WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT






WHAAAAAAAT



HEY PEASLEY when did you get here








"suckeeeeerrrrrs"







BIRDO







OH GOD



RUN BEANGUYS



RUN FOR YOUR LIVES











THE END no wait








Mario's too macho to wave goodbye.




Haha, I'm not sure if fair is the right word









nope.









GOT A LITTLE TOO EXCITED THERE






GREAT NOW FUNKYTOWN IS STUCK IN MY HEAD



Mario's nodding and Luigi is shaking his head





nodnod











Peach really is pretty cool when you get right down to it




Northeast. Got it.




Hahaha that's actually pretty amazing considering the whole town was destroyed. BEANBEAN CASTLE IS JUST VERY RESILIENT I SUPPOSE








I always misread this line horribly whenever I see it



IF ONLY THIS WORKED IN REAL LIFE




Man, I knew all that stuff already. SOME CHEST OF KNOWLEDGE THAT WAS

And with that, this (giant) episode comes to a close. What awaits our heroes in TeeHee Valley? Well wouldn't YOU like to know

Man these take a long time to make. THEN AGAIN MAYBE IT WOULDN'T TAKE SO LONG IF I DIDN'T KEEP DISTRACTING MYSELF freakin' YouTube

Some people do become generous when they see cool mustaches. My friend's dad got into 3 concerts because of his mustache. NOT KIDDING AT ALL.

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

That is the most awesome thing I've ever heard.

[zarla.livejournal.com]

I REMEMBER THAT FRIGGING OCEAN DRIVING ME NUTS I got SO stuck there for some reason. >(

And the desert coming up arrrrghh

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

I HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH BOTH OF THOSE TOO especially that freaking desert. ahrgaudg. Thankfully I didn't have too much trouble this time around BUT STILL >O

[zarla.livejournal.com]

YEAH OH MY GOD i got Peach captured like FIFTY TIMES

Although the cute hug everytime you rescue her made it worth it. 8D it just made me smile no matter what.

BUT THAT FRIGGING DESERT SJUTHASUHAHGA

[melaniedavidson.livejournal.com]

I think when they say "accident" they mean one of the researchers was a pyro. And lied about it.

Hahahhah I think this theory is born out by the fact that they have suggestions about the BEST WAY TO SET ONE ON FIRE. Accident, indeed.

WOO FIRE FLOWER

Hahhahahahahah OH HEY. WATER CONDUCTS ELECTICITY! cough

Well, crud. ...Bowser is not at all menacing now. :B Actually he hasn't been for this whole thing.

HI PEASLEY :D

Aha, I was wondering how you'd know to electrocute them.

HHAHAHAHAHHAH okay so that explains that! XD

Awwwww ♥

But that doesn't explain why the Beanstar was woken up at all. :O

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

BUT REMEMBER, THE ABSOLUTE BEST WAY TO SET 'EM ON FIRE IS WITH A FLAMETHROWER, JUST BLAST 'EM FROM FAR AWAY AND RUN FOR IT

Hahahaha if you think Bowser wasn't menacing before just wait 'til you see what he looks like, now. SO RIDICULOUS

Hmm, good point! I can't remember if that was ever really explained. I guess you could say that maybe while Peach is the only one who can wake it up properly, other attempts just make it all angry :O I mean, I'm sure there had to have been some trial and error in the past for them to realize now that the Beanstar needed a pure voice to be woken up without killing everybody. Then again, you could still argue saying that without Peach -- the only one who possesses such a voice -- the Beanstar shouldn't even be awake at all. HMMMMMMMMM

[melaniedavidson.livejournal.com]

WE'VE TRIED LOTS OF WAYS AND THIS IS DEFINITELY THE BEST.

That's my point! I mean, otherwise wouldn't it be woken up just by people talking nearby?

I kind of assumed it was just written into the spell that made it go to sleep and they knew that, though. Unless I'm competely misremembering why it's asleep. WHICH IS COMPLETELY POSSIBLE.

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

Man, I just checked and all it said was that they put it to sleep to prevent it from being used by evil. Hmmmm. Maybe there's certain preparations that go into waking up the Beanstar instead of just singing, and that's what triggered it? That's the only excuse I can think of. UNLESS THIS IS ALL EXPLAINED LATER I THINK YOU MAY HAVE FOUND A PLOT HOLE :O

[melaniedavidson.livejournal.com]

Oh hey, yeah. Maybe that's what we're supposed to assume... I guess it would make sense, to keep it from being woken up casually or accidently.

[captain-charla.livejournal.com]

HAVE YOU EVER PLAYED ZELDA, ORACLES OF TIME?
AND YOU COME INTO THIS ROOM WITH PARROTS.
AND IT'S THE ROOM OF KNOWLEDGE.
AND NONE OF WHAT THEY SAY MAKE SENSE.
WISE PARROTS INDEED.

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

I'VE ACTUALLY YET TO PLAY ANY OF THE ORACLE GAMES THOUGH I SHOULD REALLY GET AROUND TO THAT ONE OF THESE DAYS
