Swiss army man sputters a little bit. 

"A-A bomb?  Oh, but it is already defused?"  He calms down a little bit.  He pulls a walkie-talkie from a pocket that you're not sure was  there before and speaks into it. 

"Hello, chief Sanders?  Yes, I hear that the heroes that stopped bomb voyage say that there is a large bomb that was left behind...

...

No, it is defused already.

Roger, over and out."

He turns off the walkie talkie and it sortof gets lost track of, he's holding some bandages in his hands now.  "Is anyone hurt?"  He asks.

Tenebarum: I'm good~
Suspiriorum: Yeah, I'm fine.
Lachrymarum: I'm okay...
Tenebarum: I don't think Funny Man was hit, so he should be fine too~

Suspiriorum: Is there anything we can help out with down here?
Tenebarum: Oh, yeah~  Can we help with anything~?

I pose dramatically.  "The Funnyman emerges...unharmed!"

A cape appears suddenly, billows dramatically in a stray breeze, and then vanishes as soon as its purpose in life has been fulfilled.

Quote from: Internal Dialogue
Goddamnit, what's the timer at?

Dunno, why?

Mainly because I don't want to suddenly swap in front of all these people.  But also somewhat because I plan to hide my credit cards from you.

...fair enough.

I retrieve a rabbit from my hat.

Woah, how'd you do that?

I have no idea.

Swiss army man gives the funny man a friendly punch on the shoulder.  "Hey now, don't start replacing me or I'll start slacking off!"

[Funnyman...  you're starting to feel a little more rational and in control of your humor.  Your lust for wine you don't have to pay for is also decreasing significantly.]

The sun is beginning to hit the horizon of the buildings, giving the area a nice glow.  In the background 'The Concrete Mixer', a hero whose uncanny ability to control concrete has earned him a position as employee of the month on every construction site on town, Lifts the giant bits of concrete with ease, taking them over to a large truck. 

He's doing well for himself. 

Swiss Army Man Sighs contentedly as he looks down at the three girls and over to funnyman.  "We did well today.  It's a shame that we didn't get to see Roland in action, but I guess that you four really have a bit of punch in you."

Tenebarum starts laughing hysterically.

[notice check 1] With reflexes that put Marine into Swiss army man+e, he pulls a baton from seemingly nowhere [you may make notice check 2] and deflects the fist with a backhanded smack that would be inspiringly powerful and intense, if a multicolored ribbon hadn't been trailing from the tip of the ribbon.

He drops the baton and it clatters playfully to the ground (the back tip has some jingling bells attatched to it.  Hahahaha~  You do have some punch!  Literally!

"Ah, I forgot, I need to go and pick up some milk for supper.  We just went through our last bit."  He waves as he begins to walk away, collecting the items dangling from his cape to presumably distribute at the local salvation army, as he usually does after a combat.

The baton remains on the ground, seemingly unphased by it's master's abandonment.

Tenebarum and Suspiriorum notice Swiss Army Man's eyes flash with a strangely (for him) aggressive light that disappears almost as fast as it appeared. 

Everyone notices that, unlike most of his tools, which seem to come from absolutely nowhere, this little baton came from his back pocket.

...huh.

Yeah, that was...unsettling.

What do you mean?  I mean, he just parried our attack.  I was just surprised you almost hit him.

What is wrong with you, man?  Didn't you notice?  He pulled that baton out of his pocket!

...so?  He pulls everything out of his pockets.  Didn't he once pull a porpoise out of his pocket and say that he had no purpose in doing so?

No "porpoise" in doing so, and no.  He pulled it out of thin air.  That's where all of his things come from.  This came from his pocket.  He doesn't pull things out of his pockets.  He just doesn't.

...I see.

Look, I'll just take it, and we can examine it later, okay?

Sure.  I think you're being unnecessarily weird about this one, though.

I'm unnecessarily weird about every one, and don't you forget it!

I grab the baton.

You feel a dark power surge through you.

But not really.

You feel more of a cute power surge through you.  You feel like with practice, you could probably be pretty good with this thing.  It's kinda girly, but who cares about that?  If the color pattern matched your outfit better, it might be worth learning

Tenebarum: Oo!  What a cute baton~
Tenebarum pauses for a moment.
Tenebarum: Sorry about being mean earlier~  I didn't mean anything by it~
