Vargas bows down the "the god" tree eltri and accidentally lights eltri on fire. Where is atro with the squirty when you need him?

Imagine Lance drags Vargas out to the grove on the other side of the lake behind the estate to meet Eltri. Vargas had been asking about Lance's "deity" for some time now, and now that they've got the time, they could visit together. "So, he stays here all the time?" the Holy Flame asks, trying his best to control his temperature. (Headcanon: Fire Units are known to spontaneously combust if they don't keep their emotions under control.) The leaves under his feet crackle as he trails behind Lance. "Usually," he nods. "He can get up if he wants to.""Doesn't he get worried about messing up the forest?""He manipulates the land around him so he can move freely.""I...see." The duo walk in silence for a while, occasionally hearing a stray wind blow or animals crawling through the foliage nearby. Lance suddenly stops behind a cluster of trees, discreetly smiling. "This way," he whispers as he gestures for Vargas to follow again. They emerge in a large clearing, with Eltri himself planted right in the middle, for once not suspended in the air. Compared to the other towering trees around, he seemed like a King, looming over the others. His leaves were of four distinct colors, all beautifully crisp and healthy. He looks down at Lance, who approaches near one of the large roots and kneels. The green-haired man rests a hand on the root, as if a sign of respect. "Holy Earth Lance..." Eltri booms. "What a nice surprise, seeing you here. I assume that is the Holy Flame himself?""Yes, God Tree," Lance nods. He, with raised eyebrows and his head gesturing to come closer, looks back at Vargas, who picks up and approaches. The Hero's wings fold as he too rests a hand on a root, although hesitantly. He kneels and bows his head. "It is my honor to meet you, God Tree El-"Fwoosh."AaaaAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!" Eltri howls as his roots suddenly catch fire from contact with Vargas' hair. "ELTRI!!""OH DEAR GODS!! I'M SO SORRY!!" Vargas yells in a panic. His wings unfurl out of frustration, spreading even more flames in a split second. Lance, looking more irritated than frightened, tries to stomp out the embers helplessly. "Look at what you've done!" he shouts."I-I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" Vargas shouts back as he tries to control the flames with his powers. "Isn't there a river nearby?!""The nearest water source is way back!" Meanwhile, Eltri is still slowly becoming engulfed with flames, screaming the hold time. "DON'T WORRY!!" the three suddenly hear a voice bellow. "I'M HERE!!"Imagine Atro, holding a Squirty, suddenly leaps out of the forest and into the clearing followed by about a dozen more Squirties. He lands and tumbles for a bit before sitting up, kneeling on his knee with his Squirty but out. The other Squirties line up beside him. "GO!!" With grit teeth and determination in his eyes, the Holy Light points at Eltri viciously, which apparently signals all the little Water Squishies to start spitting water.Amazingly, the force of so many Squirties blasting water at the behemoth of a tree manages to quell the roaring flames, until all that's left is a little smoke and smoldering spots on the bark. Lance stares at the sudden display, dumbfounded. "Where did...""Great job, Squirty Squad!" Atro exclaims. The Squirties all jump in celebration as medics (Merith and Elimo) arrive to heal Eltri. "You all can thank me later!""Where did YOU come from?!" Lance asks, bewildered. "How did you... You just...suddenly...""Didn't you know? I run the fire department," the Holy Light proclaims proudly. "What? How come you're in charge and not a Water Unit?""Ah, well-""God Tree Eltri!" Vargas shouts. "I am eternally sorry for my blunder!" He gets down on his hands and knees, bowing profusely. "I shall not allow it to happen again!""You are forgiven, as long as you meant no ill will," Eltri says, though there's a clear hint of nervousness in his voice. "VARGAS YOU BUFFOON!!" Lance shrieks. "STOP BOWING BEFORE YOU START ANOTHER FIRE!!"

Farlon in his enraged state fighting ramna at the battle of the traitors vs the loyal guardians. That should be sad enough right?

Imagine the scene of a war-torn, desolate battlefield. It was the sight of the legendary battle between the Guardians, both loyal and traitorous. None were around to witness the destructive forces in battle. None would have wanted to get in the way of any of the Guardians.

Especially if it concerned Farlon.

The Swordsman had been relentless in cutting down any and all who slowed down his path to Sodis. He wanted revenge. He wanted to end him.

A fiery red aura emanates from Farlon and his sword, which is inscribed with the oath to protect the gods.

"To pledge my eternal devotion to the gods,To offer my life in their stead,Is a warrior’s greatest desire.”

But it was more than that. It wasn’t about honor anymore. It was about defeating the traitorous horseman, and ending his superiority once and for all.

Once the Guardian Chief, fighting off Ophelia, was in sight, Farlon’s pace quickened, until he was in a full sprint. He leaps into the air, screaming a war cry. Sodis only turns around just as the swordsman comes down on him…

CLANG!!

Another sword suddenly comes in-between Farlon’s blade and Sodis. Ophelia is knocked back as well, stunned long enough for Signas to come in and start battling her in turn.

Ramna stands her ground defiantly as she grits her teeth, pushing back her former lover. “Get away, Sodis!”

With only a small window of hesitation, the former Guardian nods and rears his horse, before taking off in a burst of light.

Farlon growls as he nearly takes Ramna by surprise. “You let him get away! I almost had him!!”

SHING!! CLANG CLANG!!

"Nn! Farlon, stop!" she cries as she’s forced back. "I only wish to talk to you!"

"I have nothing to say to you! You betrayed me for that arrogant monster!"

"He’s not a monster and he’s YOUR former leader!"

"I NEVER ACKNOWLEDGED HIM AS A LEADER!! I NEVER WILL!"

"Farlon, you have to stop this!" she pleads. "I don’t want to fight you! I need you to stop the carnage for two minutes and listen for once!"

"As if I’d ever…listen… TO YOU!!"

The two continue their duel for some time. As strong and agile as Farlon is, he never quite catch the beat of Ramna’s Fire Rhythm Step. Even with every horizontal, vertical, offensive, defensive, whatever, nobody could beat her unpredictable moves.

But he knew her well enough to.

As she steps to his right, his sword-bearing arm comes sweeping in to a backhand slice, intending to hit her sword with enough force to knock her down.

He didn’t anticipate hitting her dead in her hip.

"GYAH!!" With a strangled gasp, the former Guardian falls to the ground, clutching her hip. The sight of her mangled, blue hair draped over her heaving shoulders, along with the pained sound of her groans is enough to finally snap Farlon out of the rage-induced trance haunting him for so long.

"Ramna…!" he whispers. For once, he throws down his sword, which hits the ground with a clank. His arm tenderly helps her sit up, and his other hand hovering above the wound he’d created. “Oh gods… Gods, no…”

"Nn…" Ramna looks up at him with pleading eyes. "F-Farlon, dear…"

"Ramna?" Tears well up in his eyes. It’s been a while since they were clear of rage, for now they were clouded in fear and guilt, something he wasn’t used to. "I’m so…"

"Farlon, I need you to listen…" she whispers. "The gods…they’re planning to…end humanity… Sodis found out and…"

It’s as if realization hit him like a horse-drawn carriage. “Ramna, save your breath!” he cries “I’m getting you out of here!”

He picks her up, in a bridal fashion. Before he gets moving, he takes in the rest of the scene. Lunaris and Luly fighting… Raydn driving off a cluster of priests… Grybe distracting everyone else… It was madness.

"I’m getting you out of here, Ramna… Away from this hellhole!" He starts fleeing the battlefield, hot tears uncontrollably streaming down his cheeks. He felt like a helpless little kid. He didn’t know what to do at this point, in the middle of all this fighting. Had his rage been pointless as well?

"Farlon… I…love you…" Ramna whispers.

He only shuts his eyes and holds her tighter as he keeps running.

Dia and Liza compete to see who is the better witch and chaos ensues.

Imagine Dia and Liza instantly spark an intense rivalry when the former is first summoned. It's like a battle between two high school clique leaders. It doesn't help that they're both Fire Elemental witches. One afternoon, the training hall suddenly erupts in chaotic cheers as Dia and Liza finally duel it out. "I'm five times the Mage you'll ever be!" Dia yells as she sends a wave of flames over her rival. Liza corkscrews to the side on her broom. The elemental circle of Fire appears under her as her broom sends a fireball hurtling at Dia. "At least I know how to ride a broom!""I've got a dragon! You're argument's nonexistent just like your power!" Dia argues back as she sends another wave of flames. "I've been studying since I was little! I've got more experience!""Yeah? At least I can get to 5-stars! You Rare-tier inferior!""You did not just say that!"Soon enough, the fire from their attacks start burning through the walls, and the support beams catch fire. Some Units take notice and soon the cheers are replaced with screams of terror. Except for the Fire Elementals. They stay and keep cheering as the place starts burning. "Everyone out!" Vargas orders. "Before the training hall falls!"He and Lava succeed in evacuating the rest of the Units and restraining the two witches long enough for Selena and Atro to run into the training hall to put out the fire (with a gang of Squirties.)The battle? Let's just say the Summoner put an end to it and ordered Dia and Liza to just get along so there wouldn't be anymore mishaps. (Though we all know Dia would've totally beat Liza.)

Head cannon of tilith and the summoner? Because why not.

Tilith x Summoner 1. Tilith is the Summoner's #1 fangirl for sure. She's very supportive and will do her best to assist them. 2. At the same time, however, she thinks she may be too busy as a disciple of Lucius to be a good girlfriend. Plus, y'know, the whole goddess and mortal thing. So she tries to hide her affections. 3. Summoner tries to be a gentle(wo)man at times and offers help in making sure Tilith isn't too uncomfortable in wherever they are. (Ex. Give her their jacket in an icy field or something.)4. Tilith nearly confessed when she was taking the curse in St. Lamia, but deep down knew the Summoner would be able to take care of Maxwell. 5. Speaking of whom, Tilith is extra wary around Maxwell in the estate because she fears Maxwell may try hurting/stealing the Summoner. 6. Tilith has her own room in the estate, prepared specially by Summoner. She loves it. 7. Imagine MockUnit!Tilith and real Tilith fighting over Summoner. 8. The Summoner is defensive of Tilith, and sometimes the Units can hear them muttering under their breath about their worries. 9. Imagine Tilith as a housewife who can really kick butt and she and Summoner living happily at the estate. 10. Tilith wishes to one day name the Summoner as her champion and invite them into immortality as a minor god. I'm not sure that's how it works. But yeah.

Luly finds fairy tale and proceeds to watch it.

Imagine Luly went digging through the Summoner's anime collection and found a season of Fairy Tail in it. Interested in the characters on the box art and the summary on the back, she starts watching it. Imagine she makes many obscure references around the estate as a result. In one instance, she suddenly shouts "I've got it! You're like a genderbent Natsu!" while watching Aisha train with her dragon. She also keeps thinking about who could be Lucy, before declaring maybe she, Gilnea, or Eliza could be her. Then there was that one instance where Luly taped paper wings to a Cait Sith in the monster house. No one quite understood what she was doing, but she, for whatever reason, was given permission to take it home as a pet. Luly's battle style also becomes more erratic and destructive than it already was. Lunaris has to constantly remind her not to damage the area too much, to which Luly rolls hers eyes and mumbles on how Lunaris resembles a certain character...At one point in the following, Dean files a complaint report to the Summoner. Apparently, Luly kept asking if he'd take off his shirt. Also something about her calling him "Gray?" In any case, Dean was uncomfortable and the Summoner eventually took action by restricting the Guardian's watch time.

In the short time I was here, I have never seen any tilith up in here. Lets have some fun with this one.

Imagine Tilith decides to check out the Summoner's estate one day. She literally comes unannounced at the gates and is let in by the Summoner. "So this is what you decided to do with the land given to you?" she asks. "It's nice, but why so many features for the Units?""I want them to live comfortably," they answer. "Hey, I better run. But you should go introduce yourself around! They're nice guys. See ya!""W- hey! Rude!" Tilith sighs as she watches the Summoner leave her behind. "No way to treat a goddess...""Tilith? Is that you?!" Selena waves from a distance. She's accompanied by Lance and Atro. "Ah! Selena! You're here too? It's been so long!"The two share a friendly handshake as Lance and Atro stand there. "You two've met?" Atro asks. "Yeah! You know the Goddess Tilith, right?""A pleasure to meet you!""Hey, we should take her around the estate," Lance suggests. Later..."This food's amazing!" Tilith exclaims in Lan-Lan's restaurant. "You guys really have wonders in the world!""Would the special guest like some more?" Lancia asks from behind her bar. "Yes please!""So goddesses don't eat food..." Atro muses. "Um, haven't you seen me eat?" Selena asks. After lunch..."And this is the training hall," Lance says, motioning to the inside of the dojo-like building. "Wow... So your Summoner IS working hard!""Hyah!" Out of nowhere, Selena strikes a faraway dummy with her sword. "Hah! What did you think of that?"Tilith grins brightly. "Nice... But I bet I could do better!""Oh yeah?""Watch me." With a confident smile, Tilith hovers a little higher in the air, before her body is covered in light. She spreads her arm out and the light dissipates, obliterating a dummy into pieces. Other Units witness the spectacle and just freeze there. The Goddess giggles. "How was that?""A-Amazing..." an open-mouthed Atro whispers. Later..."And this," Selena motions to the upper floor of the monster house, "is where more powerful, godly beings stay. We have extra rooms in case the Summoner's friends ever want to stay.""Yeah. We even had a room prepared for you." Lance opens a door colored pastel blue with rainbow streaks on the bottom, much like Tilith's hair. In the room is a bright chamber with a large window letting in sunlight. There's a large white bed in the middle of the room, along with multicolored roses in vases around the room. "Oh wow...!""We didn't know if goddesses of your type slept.""Amazing!" Tilith floats around the room in wonder. "Thanks, you guys! When you see your Summoner, tell them I said-""Pardon me," Maxwell suddenly opens the door. Zebra is next to her. "Is someone in-""M-Maxwell?! And Zebra?!""Obnoxious goddess of Maxwell?!" Zebra bellows. "QUICK!! Get out of here and warn the other Units!" Tilith shouts as she blasts the two. "I'll hold them off!""No, wait, Tilith, we're not under attack!" Selena shouts back. The Goddess doesn't really listen. She just continues her argument and fight with Maxwell and Zebra. It takes a while for Atro, Lance, and Selena to pull them all apart and sort things out afterwards... Needless to say, Tilith's visit was one to remember.

Maybe make a conversation of Michele's squad after they got resurrected and summomed in their new forms. Michele also comments on how duel gx tiara and lodin were scared.

Imagine the Summoner evolves everyone in Michele's group after their 6-star forms are unlocked. When the great red light fades, Michele steps out of the evolution chamber to meet her empowered friends. "We're back in business, guys!" she declares, swinging her axes. "This time there better not be any cowardly tears, got it?!""Anyone would've been scared of him!" Lodin argues. "A-And none of us were crying!""I did a little..." Tiara mumbles. "I thought I saw you crying a little, Lodin...""You're not helping!""IT WAS AN UNDERSTANDABLY DESPAIRING SITUATION," Duel-SGX comments."Yeah, you were hugging me like some scared puppy!" Michele snaps. "But this time, there won't be any cowards, right?!""Yeah!" Tiara cheers softly. "CORRECT," Duel-SGX joins in. "Whatever," Lodin scoffs. But they freeze up when they see the evolution chamber doors open again. Behind Michele, Melchio in his newest and most powerful form steps out, his eyes glowing eerily. "That's the spirit!" Michele grins. "... Hm? What's wrong now?""H-He..." Tiara stutters. Melchio looks down on all of them as she, Duel-SGX, and Lodin take frightened steps back. "HE'S EVOLVED!!" The trio spin on their heels and make a mad dash for it, leaving Michele confused until she turns around. "Oh, it's you," she mumbles in an unamused tone. She sighs as she watches her team bolt. "My team's full of chickens, huh?"Melchio simply nods as the two enjoy the sight of the three warriors hide away.

Didn't realize i sent fan mail instead of a ask when i message you so here it is in ask form: Mod deserves to write something she wants for once! P.S You're my favorite author.

(You’re too kind! EDIT: Glob Globbit part of my intro here got messed up. Don't trust less-than signs. Let's do a crossover! A Dangit Grandpa crossover!)

(UGHHH THE WHOLE INTRO GOT DELETED OR SOMETHING. I even wrote down a character chart...)

Vargas = Naegi

Lava = Kirigiri

Selena = Maizono

Galant = Leon (yeah yeah I know there's a Leon but Galant fits better to me)

Atro = Chihiro

Eze = Mondo

Lance = Ishimaru

Verica = Yamada

Lico = Celestia

Nemia = Sakura

Mifune = Togami (except he's actually nice and not a total prick)

Kikuri = Fukawa/Syo

Dilma = Hagakure

I think I put Bayley = Asahina?

Lemia = Mukuro (magically disguised as...)

Shida = Junko

Vargas slowly opens his bathroom door. There, lying limply on the floor with Lexida impaled in her stomach, is Selena…

"SELENA!!"

There’s nothing but despair to witness here!

"W-What…" Shida gasps as the spears pierce holes through his body. "B-But I… M-My love…" The spears retract. "A-ACK!!"

Is there anyone you can trust here?

"It’s all clear now!" Vargas shouts in the courtroom. He points at Galant. "She was trying to spell out YOUR name!"

"N-No! It’s not what you think! I swear!" the Blacksmith screams.

After all… You’re just sending everyone to their deaths!

"Shut up…" Vargas chokes. He has flashbacks to each execution.

Galant’s screams drowning in the sound of hot metal bullets tearing him apart…

Eze having to be strapped down as he awaits a Mecha-Behemoth’s electric charge dissolving him into nothing…

Lico not getting to have the slow, dramatic death of dozens of skeletal arms dragging her back down, and instead suffering a shot to the head…

Atro’s spiritual apparition being destroyed by a shower of dark magic, leaving no trace…

And finally, Vargas having to suffer the torturous wait of drowning as he’s placed in a tank. If not for Atro’s spirit coming back to open a hatch, that would’ve been it.

You think that’s the end of me? Ha! You got that wrong!

The real Shida, holding Glowmy in his arms, smirks as he regains movement in the tanks before. How he had survived being seared, charged, and shot at was anyone’s guess. He’d escaped the bonds that were supposed to keep him trapped. As he waves his hand to open the hatch, he waves victoriously to the remaining Units.

"He’s cheating death…" Lava growls.

But then…

"Going somewhere?" Lemia’s apparition appears before Shida, startling him and causing him to gasp, losing some of his air. Lemia smiles as she waves her staff, and two shadowy arms envelop Shida.

"What’s happening?!" Dilma screams. "The occult’s real?!"

Shida continues to struggle until his head goes limp. He’d drowned under her power. With another wave of darkness, he and Lemia disappear…

No… No, he’s wrong. We’ll avenge those who were lost here.

Vargas stands at the giant door separating them from the outside world. He holds the key in unlock it in his hand.

"This is it," he says. His hand takes hold of Lava’s, with Mifune in his other hand. Kikuri clings to Mifune’s arm as Lava holds Bayley, who then holds Dilma.

"Open the door already," Lava jokes. "Hope won’t escape if we don’t."
