All this talk about HOT POCKETS has made you hungry. Pause the game, go to the nearest store and buy some snacks + Mountain Dew. Ask whoever is at the counter/register if they'd like to see your WLTL.

I did notice, but figured nobody gave a poo poo. Also, that hand at least had a 4 card straight draw, it was almost there. The worst hand would be if you got dealt a evens only straight, where it's 2-4-6-8-10. As a mildly horrible poker player, I've seen some poo poo hands.

You don't know why--you feel compelled, by, by forces you don't fully understand. Perhaps you just have the munchies from smoking' those dank imps still, you don't know, but you take advantage of the meal that has been provided you.

One of the deceased's arms was severed when the giant blue robot fell on her. You help yourself, much to the surprise of your companions.



CHCH moves to stop you, but KRLN stops her.



Just as you finish your meal, you hear screaming. It appears that aside from a bit of dismemberment in the accident, the pilot survived the robot crash. Hmm.



Between her screams and curses in a strange language, you think you catch her name--



What is this pilot's name, and what shall we do with our captive foe?

KRLN quickly dismisses this idea. He claims to be some sort of Doctor, and quickly staunches the bleeding, using some bandages in the robot's first aid kit.

Anyways, you're pretty sure you heard a name in all that yelling. Something about--

--yeah, that's right, she said her name was ARMS.



She starts to protest, but you are enraptured by her giant robot fighting mech. You want it to work. You want it for yourself.

****LPER note: MSPaint sometimes has trouble rendering the high graphics demanded by Chrono Trigger, which is why the dirt and blood sometimes fail to load on GOKU's character model****



You interrupt ARMS, demanding she teach you how to pilot her robot. You remind her that she drew "First Blood" and that she's lucky to be alive.

She looks at your incredulously and flatly says the machine is broken and needs to be repaired. KRLN, good ol'useful, kagey, seems-to-know-more-than-he's-letting-on KRLN suggest that you can buy parts in the nearby town of DAZL.



He starts describing the nearby world, evening going so far as to show you a map, but you swear your eyes begin to glaze over as you tune him out.



Alternate-realty GOKU chimes in to say that she happens to be an inventor and offer to takes a look at the machine. Hey, why not? If it's broke, maybe she can fix it.



Ultimate GOKU finishes her work. She warns you that the machine was pretty badly damaged, and probably won't operate as some sort of mobile-battle suit. Fortunately, using some of her own ingenuity, she was able to at least activate its AI. It could now serve as an active party member, helping you on your quest to--uh, your quest to--

You know, you're not quite sure why you're here or what you're doing with your life anymore.

Anyways.



It's not quite what you expected. It introduces itself as WLTL, but since it's merely a machine, a piece of property, you figure you ought to give it a better name. So what is the designation of this malformity of science?



KRLN reminds you that ARMS still needs proper medical attention, and that you should probably head to DAZL town regardless.

Oh hey, it's my favorite character ARMS! I've been waiting for this moment. I love her replacement arm she gets after you collect 99 phoenix downs and use them on her to revive her lost arm.

Too bad it's a plot-specific event. We wont' be able to do this until the mission flag triggers later on. It's frustrating, as this being New Game+++++++, we already have 99 phoenix downs.
