The studio where the Legionnaires are being held is swarming with supervillains. It's a trap, of course. But that doesn't mean they have to walk right into it. They have a plan, and now it's time to put it into action.

The Legion of Supervillains are expecting the non-native Legionnaires to be pushovers. They're about to discover just how crushingly, devastatingly wrong they are.

The snarling animals are no threat to her, so she ignores them, focusing on Discord instead. She doesn't believe the innocent act—there's no such thing as superpowers where she comes from, but she's been briefed on their existence here, and she knows none of this is coincidental. She approaches him by one pace, and questions him with all the venom she can muster in her tone: "Then who are you?"

She's close, though, very close, to simply firing her weapon, or clubbing him over the head with the butt of it. She doesn't have the time to waste on some kind of power struggle.

The animals stay where they are, growling in spite of themselves. Discord, for his part, keeps his fingers poised in snap position, though he chuckles in what appears to be a mostly good natured manner.

"I am Discord. Someone got up on the right side of the bed this morning," he chortles. "And now its your turn. See how fun this is?"

For all of his act, he's already seen what those metal beasts the humans called 'guns' could do, and he has no intention of giving her a free shot if he can help it. Two of the fluffier dogs close in on either side of Discord.

"I don't have to hurt you, you know. Just like you don't have to make an incredibly unintelligent decision with that death stick of your's!"

sorry lost this notif

Unfortunately for her, they had made her put stun rounds in the gun, so she can't kill this creature even if she wanted to. And at this point, she really wants to.

"All I see is someone trying to stop me from doing what I came here to do," she says. "And I don't like being interrupted."

all good, i'm in the middle of con crunch

"Suit yourself."

The dogs leap for Tex's gun and the cats scatter in terror, aiming to pull it out of her hands before she is able to fire on them while Discord floats to lay on his stomach and observe.

"Sorry, mademoiselle, but all work and no play makes for a dull life! You let me know when you're ready to relax."

There's one thing that immediately becomes apparent, and that's that she will have to fight these animals off in order to be able to proceed. She doesn't know if they're real or not. She has to treat them like they're vicious and dangerous, though, because they seem hell-bent on preventing her from carrying out her job here. She begins to fight them off, just as she would do if she had multiple human opponents, swinging her gun as a club and kicking them away. She has no intention whatsoever of settling down and 'relaxing'.
