Hell to Pay | Ft. Stopsign and Balloon
"I will get my wish."

May 4th, 2025

A blue monochrome view of a hand in the grass is seen. "Analysis failed" can be seen next to squares highlighting the ground while "my hand" can be seen highlighting the hand. A stop sign object with a wrapping on the top of its sign now in color groans and leans over a fence. The monochrome view presumably the view of the object and now blurry shows errors and highlights the moon and the fence as the object slips from the fence.

An error diagnostic sequence can be seen. The stop sign object begins to stand up as it says "I will get my wish" repeatedly.

It says "I will get my wish once more. Now standing it begins to go somewhere saying "Please move. Please" to the crowd as it moves forward. Blaire and Pepper can be seen behind the object.

Its vision shows Caine and Madeline over a fence. As errors say "It's too much" "Overstimulation detected" and "Limited hallicon detected" it scans the two. Caine is noted as a red balloon with a string with a missing reference for his theriantype. Madeline's face is blurred however, and text says "Information withheld due to high emotional stimulation prediction." It climbs down from the fence in panic before it begins to teleport.

It appears inside a building similar to Madeline's office. A door behind it is marked with Caine's name. It scans its arm to see that it has been damaged. It takes hold of its arm.

It grunts as it pulls the colored outside of its arm to reveal a mechanical arm. It looks behind it to see a weapons stand with a double bladed sword marked with the name Lyra. Lyra also known as Stopsign aged 24 pronouns it/its and she/her takes the sword and looks around in anger.

Lyra lays in bed with the sword on its back. It suffers from a traumatic stress episode before being interrupted by Caine pushing open the door to the room.

Caine smiles and says "It... it's you!" Lyra thinks "He doesn't deserve to die. He can help me. He'll learn the truth in time." It throws one side of the double bladed sword at Caine, then the other.

Lyra remembering Madeline grabs Caine by the neck and asks, "Where is she?"

COMIC GUIDE

Hallicon
A fluid that makes up the body and limbs of every object. It can stay rigid (to form limbs), or perfectly mimic a material's every trait (to form bodies or therian limbs). Hallicon contains vital functions and memories, so missing limbs or major parts of the body will impact an object's life.
