Weird stuff happens (Dead Hippies Tell No Tales)

[Filio]

Ask the leader for your plant back. Also note that you signed the protest.

[GreyGabe]

>punch the Coo Brah

You can't just punch someone! You're a hippie of the non-violent variety. Punching someone would be, like, so uncool.

>Make yourself a sign and join the protest!

You do so. The leader smiles at you and thanks you for joining his cause.

>Ask him nicely for it.

Ask the leader for your plant back. Also note that you signed the protest.

>ask the leader politely for the plant. even if he doesn't give it back, he is taking good care of it and the flower will be happy.

You hastily explain the situation, and ask if you can have the plant back. Pretty please. You also explain that you signed that protest and made this lovely sign to help him out.
The leader seems somewhat embarrassed. It seems he is the one who picked the flower, and had no idea it belonged to you! He apologizes and tells you he really can't part with it, being that it is now more or less him. Or something like that. You get a little confused by his answer. Something about symbiosis and telepathy.
You guess this is okay. You are just glad it is doing so well! You thank him for taking such good care of it.

But then!







[background=black:3hhe426o]"WEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH! WAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm free! And now you're going to pay! Now, give me the plant and maybe I won't kill you all! I'll admit, it's a pretty small chance, but it's better than nothing, right?"[/background:3hhe426o]

He looks at you and seems confused.

[background=black:3hhe426o]"Err... why are you wearing my towel like a cape?"[/background:3hhe426o]

Oh man, it's The Devil. He must have come to help out his friend, The Man. How are gonna get out of this one?

Yes. This is it. The passive aggressive non-fight of your life. You must strike the first non-blow!
Taking off your mask, you prepare your saddest sigh.

TSH: *ahem* *cough* Ahhhhhhhssssssssssiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiighhhhhhhhhhhhh hh...



It begins to rain cats and dogs. Well, not literally. That would be weird. And... very dangerous. And terrible to clean up. Ugh.



That water dude quickly swells up to huge proportions!
He picks up a trident and takes up a battle stance.

>Shenanigan Rex: Hit the Devil in the face with a pie. You've always wanted to do that.

this.

Oh, Shenanigan!

DepressingHippie> distract the devil with Annoying Hippie Music

You quickly find a radio and tune it to the 24-hour hippie music station.
What luck! Simon and Garfunkel!

"--That split the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share"



The Devil begins to flip out. He hates Simon and Garfunkel. Well, he hates most things, but you know what I mean.

The big water guy is too busy sniggering to attack.

...

You are now The Devil. Your face is covered with pie, that watery douche-bag is laughing at you, and that hippie is playing Simon and Garfunkel at you. You are fit to be tied. Miffed. Downright vexed, in fact! What do you do?

[TheGuyFromThatPlace]

Wipe pie off your face, burn the radio and continue to burn everything.

[GreyGabe]

>Throw the pie, including tin, at the hippy's face. Throw it like a frisbee.

The filling stays stuck to your face. But you figure this would be funny anyway.



*donk*

Wipe pie off your face, burn the radio and continue to burn everything.

>make it hot and sunny to shrink the water man!

You wipe the rest of the filling off of your face.



Using unspeakably dark demon magicks you summon the bright, cheerful rays of the sun.
But, like... they're hotter than normal. Oh yes. Evil.



Watery Jerk: "Oh god I'm evaporating! Oh what a world, what a world!"

If the sun keeps beating down like this, things are gonna start bursting into flame left and right! And with no water left in the city to extinguish it, there will be some delicious mayhem going down. Too bad you can't stick around to savor it. Oh, hey. That hippie is coming back.

>Summon laywer

Hehehehehe....



Lawyer: "Stop right there, sir. My client, The Devil, Lord of Darkness, Father of Lies, Morning Star, The Fallen Angel, Adversary, and High Ruler of Hell, henceforth simply refered to as The Devil, has filed a restraining order against you. This means, quite simply, that you may not move closer than fifteen meters to him at any time, on the grounds that you mean harm to his person. Furthermore, if you choose to violate the terms of this order, you will be incarcerated blah blah blah fullest extent of the law blah blah blah large man named 'Bubba' blah blah blah electric chair blah blah communism blah blah affidavit blah wizards blah blah..."
The Stupid Hippie seems mystified. That is one lawyer who has certainly earned his horns.

>retreat to The Man's HQ, you need to keep these jerks from flanking you.

Yes! A good fallback position. Good thing you have stayed on pretty good terms with The Man. That guy is always helpin' you out here on earth. First, though...



Now that the water man is gone, the flower is all yours! Bwahahahaha!

You quickly run inside, slamming the door behind you.

>Open a chain of fast-food restaurants that serve only squid and lead paint.

Well, that won't help you right now. But it seems like a pretty profitable idea for the future. You put it on your evil to-do list.

To-do list

Pick up eggs
Burn down an orphanage
Eat some babies
Pick up dry cleaning
Work on evil laugh
Jazzercise -- 3:00! Don't forget your leotard this time!
Send forth the Antichrist
Meet with L.G.s manager (she has a new album coming out, you need to put out some subliminals on it)
Get The Flower
Go check on The Man
Open a chain of fast-food restaurants that serve only squid and lead paint (market to kids under name Kool E. Calimari? Maybe...)
Blind date (Bring flowers! Or does that seem too desperate...? Maybe bring a fine bottle of wine, served in the skull of one of her enemies?)
Poker night with the guys (don't invite Beelzebub again... his buzzing is soooo annoying)

Yep. That seems pretty good. So, should you look around first, or go check on The Man immediately?

Beelzebub:smack devil for not inviting you. again.

Bzzzzzzzz... Oh, that little bzzzzzzzzitch! If you could get your handszzzzzzz on him you would just szzzzzzzzzlap him szzzzzzzzzo hard! Of courszzzzzzzzzzze he iszzzzz the king of hell, szzzzzzzzzo he would probably juszzzzzzt jam your antennae szzzzzzo far up your asszzzzzzzz that you would be able to szzzzzzzzzmell your own kidneyszzzzzzzz. Bzz.

>wonder how you are going to find out her enemies and have it still remain a blind date. also, ask a nearby grunt to turn up the AC.

Hmm. That's a good question. Maybe you should just kill some guy and say it's one of her enemies. You are The Devil after all. You have no problem with lying. Or murdering.
Whew. It's getting kinda warm in here. You march up to a guy in a suit who's cowering in the corner.

[background=black:24egj50h]"You there! Turn up the AC! It's hotter than hell in here!"[/background:24egj50h]



[background=black:24egj50h]"And I should know!"[/background:24egj50h]
Oh, The Devil!

>Mourn loss of watery man.

Pfft why would you do that? That guy was a total douche.

>sun: "wow, im gona kill these people... i dont want to kill people"
>sun: back away from the planet
>rain: happen

Ah dang brah you don't wanna kill nobody! You're like a pacifist an' shit. But these totally uncool unspeakably dark demon magics are like stopping you from doing anything. And you're not getting closer or anything like that you're just getting hotter.

> Become Cloud Man!

You are now this entity. On any other day you would be seriously freaking out right now but now? This just seems kinda par for the course at this point. Unfortunately, you aren't quite sure how to control your motions at this point. And you're blowing away from the city! Man, you can't let The Devil get away with flower-you! You miss him already. So, you need to figure out what other abilities you have that could help you in this situation. What do you do?

Be the Rain, Man.
