Our game got weird. What started out as a practice fight between the Protégé (The hilarious Callback!) and the Star (Dreamgirl) went sideways.

It started out with Dreamgirl (Rosamie) stealing her teammate’s utility belt. Callback (Naryatti) whined that this was unfair, and when her opponent tried to swing the belt, CB pulled out a secret weapon: An old-fashioned pistol. She put it under Dreamgirl’s chin and fired, popping out a flag that said “flag”.

After the laughter subsided, CB caught her teammate/crush in a handstand leg choke.

Unbeknownst to them, the training room was formerly a party room, and Gary Lopez (The dream controlling Nightcap) had activated a view screen while making toast. He had observed his teammates fight and, after finding some butter and a plate, decided to join them.

Callback, declaring herself the grand champion, officiated Gary vs Rosamie.

Knowing that they both had an interest in her, she declared the winner would get a kiss.

Then things got weird. Rose activated her super pheremones, making both teammates infatuated with her.

Gary responded with a romantic dip, followed by a spin kick.

Rosamie grabbed her baton* and swung for the fences, knocking her opponent out for a few moments.

Of course, KOing someone with dream powers has consequences. Callback saw an image of herself naked in gym class, while Rose had a vision of The person who really gave her her powers, D list villain CatsPaw.

Gary had a journey through the dreamscape, and we did a flash forward as Dream and Naryatti discussed their relationship, and if you could really love someone with pheremone control.

Back in the present though, Gary had a new plan.

Then things got extremely weird.

Sleepy Gary created the Dream Version of himself, right behind Rosamie.

Now, masks is a game about teenagers. Although they were reluctant, Gary goaded his teammates to make out with the perfect six pack hunk.

They did and it was amazing. However, DG and CB were good at manipulating too.

To keep up the tension, the end of the story will be after the footnote.

*Of course Rosamie’s weapon is a tasseled button.

Here’s the weirdest part.

Goaded by the hottest girls he knew, sleepy Gary kissed himself. It was really good.

The dream construct vanished within a few minutes, and the three resolved to never speak of this again.

Tonight we learned that History channel has a sequel to Ancient Aliens called “Current Aliens”.
