[ Where are you even aiming?! Sabo says right after ace eats wall. ow. ]

Shut up, shut up-- [ he got a 12 on dodging the punch and hitting back himself, but he's at least turning his gloves on now to see if that can help anything? ] Stop talking and be helpful!

[ sabo where are his better reaction time powers. put those on. ]

[ Ace's gloves turn into fists proper, reinforcement on the knuckles part to give you that extra punching power. You can even run electricity through them for a stunning blow! Wow, how fun.

Ace can get that reaction time, but this will let him quickly realise that whoever this is, it's not quite a normal person. They move significantly faster, quicker, and stronger than the average person would, all information analysed and processed in his AI-assisted brain in a fraction of a second.

A 12 is a pass so Ace dodges that punch with a bare skim, but the stranger catches the return fist in their own hand with a 16. Their grip is crushingly strong, moving to slam Ace against the wall. Wyd.

[ well he's going to try to run electricity through the gloves after the weird person grabs hold of it, but i rolled a two, so unless you get a nat one he is probably going to eat wall again. ]

[ Ace your rolls. Nimona is going to kill you when you come back out two weeks in a row.

I did not get a nat1, I got an 8. Which is super meh, but it does win against a 2. They'll let go out of reflex when Ace's hand gets zappy but will instead probably just reflexively throw a punch right into Ace's face. Get slapped nerd.

[ You're a better fighter than this! C'mon, use your head a little!

this is a thing to hear his head is ringing from being punched and slammed into walls a lot in the span of 4 comments, but also, it gives him an idea, which i rolled a 14 for so i hope he breaks his head on the mask, because he is headbutting the dude now. he is doing that.

Are you doing this on purpose to annoy me?? ]

[ Honestly? You go Ace. Ace headbutts this stranger pretty hard, and while the mask does not break, it also does not break Ace's forehead. Or nose. Or anything.

The weird henchman makes a pained noise and their grip loosens. Take advantage of the gap?

It worked, didn't it?

[ Just punch him in the balls instead of losing the two brain cells you have! Somewhere he's probably not wearing a mask!

This is not an exaggeration Sabo plays vicious. Unfortunately so does Ace so yeah it's uh. a legendary nut punch, now that there's a gap between them. because I rolled a 20 when I was doing a kick you in the ball gag ]

[ Well you just ended this stranger's bloodline. In lieu of flowers, send more life.

They just make a high-pitched noise that sounds like a deflating balloon, which is somewhat topical. And just. Fall right over. He's fucking dead, Jim, you killed him and his children.

Instant K.O.

[ Hahaha, I can't believe that work! I think he's dead.

Sabo is an AI. he knows if the man is dead or not for real. ace doesn't care, he is immediately cracking his knuckles and proceeding to loot him.

i mean. examine him like a correct investigator.

first you take off the mask for the identity, then you look through the pockets of his clothes for his money information. potentially unzipping that jacket to see if there's anything hidden under it too. just. all that. also you then use the jacket to tie the guy's arms behind his back, because you don't have rope on you. Sabo is ten and not allowed to say kinky, but I will. ]


Anything useful on him or about him now that he's out, Sabo?

[ Find his wallet first.

[ The mask is like, weirdly hyperglued on. I wish I could write this off as a CYOA-only thing of 'I don't want to identify this person' but no, weird superglue masks are a real thing in this canon so unless Ace wants to be super unlawful and rip this person's face off, that thing isn't budging.

I guess they can have like 5,000 yen. That was their dinner money, dude...

Ace can also dig out a card and a not-yet-inflated balloon off of the person. It's half-red, half-blue. Guess this balloon was a bit late to be set up, and then Ace showed up like a rude person and chased them down. Me still just committing to they/them for consistency even though we established that you just annihilated their nuts.

The back of this person's jacket has an interesting logo on it.

[ i am NOT going to lie. he HEAVILY considers ripping the person's face off. he does not, but he considers it. instead: hehehe money. he can buy his own shirt now.

Sweet! ]


Sabo, any idea on what that logo is from?

[ he asks this before pocketing the not-inflated balloon and reading the card.

hehe he has money ]

Sabo
Already beat you to it.
Naixatloz, also known as NAIX, is a global ideological society with its main headquarters in New York, USA.
They have a Japan Branch in Tokyo.


[ Ace can look at the card. It reads the following:

T
D


The opposite side reads:

4


Cool.
