Issei Hyoudou was in heaven as he saw Rias, Asia, Xenovia, Koneko, Akeno, Lucy, Erza, Juvia, Ravel, and Hotaru all standing before him in all their nude glory all begging him to do as he wished with their breasts first.

"Oh man... How can I possible say no to all of you at once." He beamed.

"What about me, Issei?" A voice said behind him as he spun around to see Raynare in her Yuuma disguise. "Will you die for me?" She asked turning back to Raynare and creating a light spear.

*Gasp!* Issei woke up in the real world again as Rias, Asia, and Xenovia all slept silently around him. "Just a bad dream." He whispered ever so softly.

Meanwhile Lucy was being awoken slowly in her own room by Akeno's wet passionate kisses. "Morning lover... Sleep well?" She asked warmly.

"Ummmm... Akeno... Did something happen to your voice?" (*1) Lucy asked slowly as she woke up.

"I don't think so." Akeno said. "I've always sounded like this. You just remember it different." She said reaching into Lucy's yukata-like nightgown to massage her breast.

"Ohhh." She moaned a bit waking up.

"Hey, stop that. We have to get to school soon." Ravel said indignantly as she pulled Akeno's hand out accidently ripping the cloth and exposing Lucy's breast. "Besides my son is right over there." She said pointing to the foot of the bed where Robin was sleeping peacefully.

"Dammit, I liked this nightgown." Lucy whined. Getting out of bed. "Now I have to ask Virgo for a new on-" She paused and started counting down the days in her head. "Wait... It's been thirty days now I'm sure of it!" Lucy yelled.

"Wah! Mommy what happened?" Robin asked jumping up in shock.

"Sorry Robin. I didn't mean to scare you." Lucy said petting him as she crawled out of bed, and grabbed her keys off the nightstand, but if I'm right about this. My magic system should be completely repaired by now." She said grabbing her keys shaking.

"Lucy be careful." Akeno warned. "We don't know for sure if you have fully healed yet."

"I know." Lucy said. "That's why I'm gonna start with something basic." She said taking out a silver key. "Open! Gate of Canis Minor: Nikora!"

For a second nothing happend, then in a flash the drill-nosed dog-thing appeared in front of the blonde shaking. "Puuun!" It cheered arms up.

"Hey Plue." Lucy said picking him up in her arms. "It's been a long time. I want you to meet the newest member of our family." She said setting him down on the bed. "This is Robin, he's my son."

"Puuuun." Plue said holding his arms out as Robin moved in closer to examine the strange creature.

"Mommy what is this?" Robin asked Lucy.

"Plue is a Celestial Spirit, a being from another dimension I can summon to aid me." She said taking out another key. "Open! Gate of the Maiden: Virgo!"

In a flash the maid spirit returned. "Welcome back Hime... Would you like to punish me to make up for the lack of service the past month?"

"No Virgo, it's fine." Lucy said covering Robin's ears. "Also not in front of my son, please."

"I heard all of that anyway." He said with a grimace making Lucy blanch and Akeno just giggle.

Robin... Please go downstairs and wait for us to get changed." Ravel said opening the door.

"Okay Mommy." The small creature said before bounding out the door.

"Anyway Virgo, can you get this gown repaired while I head to School?" Lucy said pulling the dress off over her head.

"As you wish Hime, it is good to see you again." Virgo said before vanishing.

Lucy smiled and hugged Ravel, and Akeno. "My magic's back!" She said happily.

"Good to know." Ravel said hugging back.

"Now we can have some real fun." Akeno said with a devilish smirk making Lucy shiver, and Ravel just glare.

(Meanwhile at the Howlet Brothers' home.)

Travis was enjoying a peaceful if worrysome night's sleep when his phone started to ring. He groaned in annoyance before picking it up and bringing it to his ear. "Hello?"

"Travis! Is that you?!" A young man's voice called out on the side.

"Kyle... Kyle?!" Travis said shooting up. "How the hell did you get this number?!"

"That's not important." Kyle said. "What the hell are you two thinking?! Word is you and James became Devils. Mom, and Dad are furious."

"Kyle I swear to god, if you tell Mom how to find us." Travis began.

"Don't be stupid big brother!" Kyle yelled. "If I found you, you know Mom can too. They're already on their way to see you."

"Shit!" Travis scowled. "We'll be out of town by the time they get here. I gotta go, good bye, don't bother calling me back."

"Travis wait, please you both need to stop running and talk this-" Kyle was cut off as Travis hung up, broke the phone in two, and then went into the bathroom to flush both halves down the toilet.

"James!" Travis yelled.

"Ugggh what?!" James yelled from his room.

"They're onto us! We gotta get dressed, and ready to go now!" He said.

"What?! Shit-shit-shit-SHIT!" James yelled getting up and springing to get his clothes on. "Dammit, what the fuck do we do?!"

"We just gotta get to the underworld with Ravel and the others. That will buy us at the very least a day or two to figure out what to say to them." Travis said buttoning his shirt.

"Well think of something quick." James said throwing on his tank top. "The Underworld is literally the second place they will be looking for us, and in case you forgot, you're the one who decided you didn't want to be head of the family."

"Don't go passing the buck on me." Travis said. "I didn't make you come with me."

"You needed me to survive and you know it." James said. "You can't live without your twin brother here."

"Only in your mind." Travis said lacing up his shoes. "Come on. Let's grab what we need and head to the club."

James nodded pulling on his boots and following him.

(ORC Office)

"Honestly you guys. Just because School is technically out you still should be wearing your uniforms." Rias said pinching the bridge of her nose as Akeno just chuckled.

Indeed while the Earthen student members of the ORC had opted to wear their school uniforms. The Earthlanders had chosen to wear more unorthodox attire as befitting their world.

Natsu for his part wore a black jacket with a missing sleave, white baggy shin-length pants and sandals.(*2) A look which earned him a lot of distain from both Issei and Travis. "Dude, you look like a beach bum version of Aladdin." Issei said getting a high five from Travis at the sick burn. Erza had to hold Natsu back from attacking them for mocking his look.

Speaking of Erza, she wore her usual armor over a white sleeveless blouse, and blue skirt with black boots. "Honestly Natsu, do you have to try and start a fight over even the tiniest insult."

"She's right Natsu, save it for when we get to the Underworld." Gray said calmly but firmly. Unlike Natsu, Gray choose to cover up a lot of skin. Weaing a white fur-collared jacket with a black shirt, black pants, and very dark blue boots. If one looked close you could see several small magic circles etched into the cloth on the pants. Almost like seals of some kind.

From across the club room Juvia looked up seeing Gray talk, then looked back down at her feet sadly. Seeing her friend still upset as she was, Lucy summoned Virgo that morning to provide Juvia with a beautiful shin-length, royal-blue, with white, and light-blue flower pattern kimono-gown and a pair of shimering midnight blue low-heeled pumps. Juvia just quietly thanked Lucy and with some help from the blonde slipped into the dress, and shoes almost like a robot. She just sat alone, and sad, barely talking to anyone.

"Ummm... Kiba, Issei, Gasper?" Wendy asked feebly as she shuffled her feet. The small blunette wore a simple red sweater, and blue knee length skirt along with stockings and mary janes. "Could you guys try talking to Juvia? She's been really upset since Gray hurt her."

"Sure thing." Kiba said getting up along with Issei. Only to have the later have his arm grabbed by Lucy.

"No perv stuff." She warned standing there in a green turtleneck sweater, shin-length black skirt, and velvety black flats, her hair styled into a loose but professional looking bun, and a pair of wire framed glasses on her face. "Juvia has enough distress as it is."

"Okay. I understand." Issei said as Kiba sat by Juvia.

"Hey... You okay." He asked as Juvia just ignored him. "I heard you got your heart hurt... I'm sorry. I wish I knew what to say that would help."

Juvia continued to ignore him starting to shake a little.

"Juvia... We know you're hurting." Issei said. "We're all your friends here, and we want to help you. If you need anything at all just say the word."

"So was Gray-sama, and he..." Juvia said before waving them off. "Please leave Juvia alone." She whimpered turning away.

"I'm sorry boys. I think we should just give Juvia some space." Layla said walking them off. The oldest blonde in the group having tradded her usual dresses and kimono gowns for a simple pink blouse, and dark blue jeans with pink flats on her feet.

"Honestly you kids are so uptight." Mikoto said having traded her kimono-gowns for a simple dark blue pantsuit with low heeled pumps. "Even for Devils, life is too short to spend angry or depressed." She said with a smile.

"Well said Mikoto, lets all just try to relax and enjoy ourselves. We're not enemies here, so lets focus all that negative energy into the training." Akeno said.

"Right!" Everyone but Juvia, and Koneko said.

Meanwhile outside Katse and Murayama were poised by the door listening in.

"What are they talking about?" Katase asked.

"I don't know... I can't figure it out." Murayama added. "They're heading for the door, quick, hide!" She said running behind the corner with her friend as one by one the club members left the office.

"Hey Issei, did your voice change while I was gone?"(*3) Lucy asked as they made their way out of the building. "You sound a lot less... well... creepy." She said.

"Huh? I have no ideas what you are talking about Lucy." Issei said. "I sound the same as always."

Lucy just sighed and nodded. "Okay, whatever you say."

As they left Katase and Murayama continued to watch from around the corner. "Sounds like they have something important going on." Murayama said. "Are you sure we should be spying on them?"

"Positive... I wanna know what is going on." Katase said. "Ever since that Lucy girl arrived here things have been getting weirder and weirder." She said creeping after them as Murayama sighed and followed.

(Unknown location. Onboard a moving train)

"Uggggghh... Why did we have to take a train." Natsu moaned in pain as he lay on the floor.

"It's rude if we don't use official channels to reach the underworld." Akeno said. "Magic circles and the like are more for emergencies." She said stroking Wendy's hair as she lay down in her lap moaning as well. "So do all Dragon Slayers get motion sickness?"

"I don't know... I thought it only happend to Natsu." Lucy said amazed by the scenario.

"That's kinda a lame weakness. You can't drive a car, or ride a motorcycle." Issei mused sitting between Asia, and Rias. "To think I was actually kinda jealous of you people when Lucy pointed out the power... Now I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole."

Natsu groaned... But raised his hand in Issei's direction, and flipped him off.

"Mommy, what does that mean?" Robin asked looking at the gesture.

"It means Natsu is a bad influence, and you should never look at him again." Ravel said glaring at the young man.

"Honestly, grow up." Travis scowled at Natsu, only relenting when Hotaru rested her head on his shoulder.

"Koneko, are you okay? You seem distant?" Gasper asked as Koneko just sat unresponsive.

"I'm fine." She said without even looking up.

"I'm gonna go use the bathroom." James said walking off.

"I'm gonna go see to some other business." Azazel said going in the opposite direction as Sona arrived with Tsubaki, and Saji.

"Oh hey Sona." Issei said. "You guys are coming too?"

"Of course." She said. "The Young Devil's gathering includes me as well. I simply came up to offer my thanks to Rias for allowing us to take the same train."

"It's no problem at all. Anything for a good friend." Rias said. "I still owe for standing beside me during the Wedding incident."

"Hey Issei. I heard there's gonna be simulated Rating games at the Gathering. Maybe you and I will finally get to face each other." Saji said.

"Looking forward to it." Issei said. "I wanna see how strong you really are."

"Well I already know one person who is definitely gonna be in the games." Ravel said with a smirk looking at Akeno.

"Huh, what are you talking about?" Akeno asked.

"You mean Rias didn't tell you?" Ravel asked looking at the redhead.

Rias sighed. "Akeno... When you were granted your Evil Pieces, Lord Phenex got in touch with Sirzechs, and after he assured him that you would at the very least have a halfway complete Peerage by the time of the Gathering... He agreed to put you in an exibition Rating game against Raiser."

"What!?" Lucy asked shooting to her feet.

(A couple cars back.)

"Come on." James said shaking the door. "How much longer are you gonna take!?" He yelled at the locked door. "What kind of high class devil family owns a train with only one freaking bathroom!?" He yelled to anyone who would listen. "Answer me goddammit!" James said wincing at the sting. "Oh the hell with this! If anyone's in there, I'm coming in!" James yelled punching a hole through the door and fiddling with the knob until it opened. Ignoring the screams of two girls as he swung it open. "What the fuck?"

(Back in the ORC car.)

"Are you kidding me!?" Lucy asked. "You can't be serious, you want to throw my friends into battle against that man!"

"Lucy, please calm down." Ravel said.

"No I will not calm down Ravel!" Lucy said. "That alone was bad enough, but also my Mom too! That bastard almost killed me, and now you want to feed him my friends."

"I understand your concerns Lucy, but try to think about this from a tactical standpoint." Rias said. "Not only does Akeno have a larger peerage than we did during the Rating game, but she also has a specialist in water magic, and a man who eats fire. So this isn't as bad a fight as you think."

"Yeah, come on Lucy, who do you think we are anyway." Erza said. "I'm confident we can easily defeat this man. From what Akeno described he doesn't seem that much stronger than Ravel." She said as Ravel looked up and glared at her. "No offense."

"Offense accepted." Ravel said.

"I suppose you have a point." Lucy sighed. "Still you should be careful, this world isn't like the one we are from. The fact I survived long enough to meet all of you is a miracle."

"You worry too much dear." Akeno said warmly kissing her cheek.

Lucy sighed and looked at Juvia. "Still... What about Juvia? She's in no condition to fight anyone right now."

Mikoto nodded. "We'll just have to see if she improves by the end of the month."

"Hey Boss." James asked sticking his head in the door. "Are you sure no humans can find their way onto this train?"

"They should not. This train is covered in wards preventing any normal human from getting too close." Ravel said.

"Oh really... Then how did we end up with these two stowaways?" James said tossing open the door, and throwing Katase and Murayama into the center of the train car.

"How did you two get here!?" Issei yelled in shock.

"Oh no, are you hurt!?" Asia asked heading to their sides. "James, did you hurt them!?"

"I didn't do shit to them. I just found them hiding in the bathroom." He said.

"What are you two doing here?!" Rias asked rising up.

"We should ask you that same question!" Katase stammered before standing up with her friend. "You guys have been acting real strange, and now we want answers."

"No-no-no! We do not have time for this." Rias declared rubbing her temple in frustration.

"We have to turn back." Lucy said. "We can't just bring them along."

"It's too late for that." Ravel said sighing. "We're right on top of the Underworld."

"Hey, why have we stopped moving?" Travis asked as he and Hotaru looked out a window.

"No, dammit Azazel, I know you can hear me!" Rias yelled. "We have a situation here! Abort! Abort dammit!"

"Buchou, what are you talking about?" Issei asked before a black void overtook the group.

"GOD-OW-DAMMIT!" Lucy cried as she plummetted to seeming oblivion.

(Unknown canyon in the underworld.)

"Mommy, wake up." Lucy heard as she batted away the paw touching her face. Eyes opened to see a worried Robin standing before her.

"I'm up." Lucy said forcing herself onto her knees. "What happend?" She asked looking around, seeing the scattered forms of her fellow clubmates coming to as well.

"Wish I knew." Akeno said getting up and taking count of the group. "Where's Rias?"

"I can't find Mommy anywhere." Robin said shivering up close to Lucy's ankle.

"Don't panic dear. I'm sure she's okay." Lucy said nuzzling him with her foot.

"Holy crap, did that dog just talk!?" Murayama yelled making Lucy glare at her as Robin took cover behind her.

"What is going on?" Katase asked. "This isn't supposed to happen?"

"No it isn't." Kiba said.

"Something is wrong here." Travis said scowling.

"Well that much is obvious." Layla said.

"No Mrs. Heartfilia, I mean these two were obviously following us closely if they were able to get on the train." He said pointing at the two pure humans. "Think about it, we have two people with superhuman smell. Robin likely has pretty good hearing. James, and I are both trained soldiers who are skilled at knowing when we are being followed... You're telling me, NONE of us noticed we were being followed.

Wendy looked downtrodden. "I'm sorry... I don't remember noticing anything." She said.

"I didn't hear anything either." Robin said shyly.

"So what do you think is going on?" Issei asked.

Travis looked around at the fellow members of the club one-by-one until the ground began to rumble.

"Ummm... What is that?" Katase asked shaking a bit.

"I don't know, but it doesn't sound harmless." Travis said unzipping a large case, and pulling Dragonslayer out. "Lucy. Get your piece out."

"On it." Lucy said unzipping her own case, and pulling her M1 Carbine out slapping in a fesh magazine and chambering the round.

"Holy shit." Issei muttered as a huge dark red, and white bellied bipedal dragon with horns on it's head came stomping into view.

"Okay everyone... Do not panic." Akeno said. "Let's see how he reacts before we-"

"Hey you!" Natsu yelled. "Do you know a Dragon named Igneel!?"

"Natsu you stupid mother-" Gray barked as the beast reared it's head back gathering flames in it's gaping maw.

Koneko then rushed forward leaping off the rocks to attack the dragon.

"Koneko wait!" Kiba tried to reason. Too late as with a simple swipe of the tail Koneko was sent crashing into the canyon wall.

"Shit! Koneko!" Issei cried out manifesting the boosted gear as the dragon lowered his head, and unleashed a large torrent of fire. Katase and Murayama screamed as they tried to run away.

"I got this!" Natsu said rushing in and sucking up all the flames into his mouth. "Okay big guy! I'll just have to beat some answers out of you!" He said covering his hands in fire and leaping up. "FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FI-" *CLAP!* The Dragon slammed both his clawed hands together into Natsu and pulled them back making him fall to the ground stunned.

Lucy began to panic her eyes widening as her breathing increased, Natsu was one of the strongest people she knew, to see him beaten in one hit like that was utterly confounding to her."

Akeno took to the air assuming her Miko robes. "As the only King piece here it's my duty to take charge! Asia, Wendy, get in there and heal Koneko, and Natsu! Issei, keep boosting, we need you as strong as possible. Kiba, Xenovia, Erza, Layla, Hotaru, Keep him busy with hit and run attacks. Mikoto, protect those two humans!"

"On it!" Everyone mentioned said springing into action. Like flies the five knights buzzed around the huge reptilian trying their best to draw it's attention away from the group.

"Okay. Rooks, Bishops. Hit him while he is distracted!" Akeno said unleashing a blast of lightning.

"Roger that." James said leaping high in the air. "Rankyaku!" He declared kicking a blade of air into the beast's face as Travis leapt after it and swung Dragonslayer. The beast simply swung it's head deflecting their blades and forcing them back. Kiba, and Xenovia charged in with their blades only to be met with the same result!

"Ice Make: Lance!" Gray declared sending a giant colum of ice into the dragon as it simply continued to advance, barely breaking stride as the colum shattered against his body's sheer mass.

Gasper tried to freeze the dragon in place with Forbidden Balor View only for the beast to easily break free of the sacred gear's power! He then stomped after Gasper who ran back past Juvia who remained on her knees unmoving.

"Juvia! Move!" Lucy cried seeing her friend near catatonic She reached for her keys. "Star Dress: Leo!"

"Your fight is with us Dragon!" Erza said changing to a skimpy suit of black armor with a huge club, smashing it on the back of the Dragon's head. Only to be nearly crushed to death by the beast swatting back there. An audible snap of bone was heard as Erza's leg was caught in the beast's attack. She grunted but did not scream simply flying town towards the healers.

*"BOOST!"* Went the gauntlet as Issei charged and tackled Juvia out of the way as the Dragon stomped where they had been just before!

"Issei?" Juvia asked blinked as she was awake.

"Juvia, I know you're upset, but dammit, that thing is trying to kill us all, try and keep your head in the game." He said before getting up and acting as a shield for her as Juvia looked at him in suprise, and a mix of awe.

"Regulus Lucy Kick!" Lucy said nailing the beast in the stomach with a high-heeled foot. The creature glared at her, Moving to smack her only for Robin to leap into his view shifting to it's pink and white form.

"Don't you dare hurt my Mommy!" He yelled kissing the beast on the nose. If some payed close attention they could almost see an aura of the beast's being partially transfered into Robin the dragon winced a bit nonetheless as Robin swept down, and pulled Lucy to safety. Lucy landed and turned to Robin. "Stay behind me!" She ordered as she aimed her carbine and fired a several shots. One after the other all aimed at the beast's eyes.

The dragon blinked and shielded his face as the rounds bounced off his face. He charged up another gout of fire from his gullet only for Layla to charge in from the side. "Lock, Starcutter!" She declared stabbing her key-shaped sword into the creature's mouth and twisting it, forcing his jaw shut.

The beast failed and coughed as fire shot from it's nostrils and embers leaked out of it's closed mouth, leaving him open to Hotaru who slashed at his shoulder with her Glaive making a large patch of his scaly hide transform into soft human-like skin. "Now Travis!"

With a defiant cry Travis leapt in and with Dragonslayer, cut a massive gash into the beast's shoulder making it scream in pain.

"He's hurt now!" Akeno said. "Everyone hit him together!" She said as Issei's gauntlet made a final *"BOOST!"* She charged up and hurled a large thunderbolt.

"DRAGON SHOT!" Issei declared firing off a powerful sphere from Boosted Gear

"SWORD BIRTH!" Kiba yelled spawning dozens of swords

"ICE MAKE: LANCE!" Gray said firing off another powerful colum of ice.

"URANO METRIA!" Lucy declared firing off an attack of her own as well.

"SKY DRAGON'S ROAR!" Wendy yelled firing off a powerful blast.

"FIRE DRAGON'S ROAR!" Natsu declared getting up in time to attack with his own magic.

The multiple combined attacks struck the beast head on creating a huge explosion that sent nearly everyone flying back.

"Did they get him?" Murayama asked.

"Don't jinx it!" Lucy yelled as the smoke cleared revealing the beast was still standing. "Dammit!"

"Okay, I think that's enough." Azazel's voice rang as he appeared alongside Rias, and Ravel.

"Rias, Azazel!" Issei yelled. "What the hell is going on?!"

"Okay people calm down." Azazel said waving them down. "This was just a test. The Dragon you were fighting is Tannin. He's a reincarnated Devil just like most of you."

"Devil?" Murayama asked.

"That is right." Tannin said loudly. "I was asked to test your skills and power, and I have to say you managed to suprise me... Had I known you were this powerful I might have used a full one percent of my real power." He said making everyone's eyes widen.

"Only one percent?" Lucy asked shaking.

"No way." Erza said growling as her leg was being healed by Asia. "We were really that weak?"

"I'm really sorry guys." Rias said. "But Azazel roped Ravel and I into playing along."

"It's to be expected." Azazel said. "You coddle your peerages too much, so they have little incentive to actually get stronger." He said making Rias scowl, and Ravel just hang her head in shame before looking and observing Azazel's reaction to the two humans.

"I assume from your lack of suprise and questions, that you were the one who brought the Kendo Club girls to the Underworld with us?" She asked as everyone glared at him accusingly.

Azazel smirked. "Guilty as charged. They seemed interested in our goings on for the last couple days, so I left a trail of crumbs and let them decide if they wanted to follow." He said. "You could also say I was testing all of you on that one too. After all even superhuman senses can be fooled with a well placed Illusion, right Mikoto?" He asked making everyone turn to her in shock.

"That is correct Azazel." Mikoto said looking away from the group. "I'm ashamed to say none of them saw through my Genjutsu."

"Mikoto..." Akeno hissed. "You were in on this? You went behind my back!"

"I had no choice." Mikoto said. "It was a direct order from both Azazel, and Lord Lucifer."

"That's not the point-" Akeno yelled before composing herself. "We will talk about this later in private." She said before turning and walking away angrily.

Azazel just smiled. "Well if you guys are in need of some downtime to air grievances I suggest we all head to the baths. Follow me." He said before leading them off to wash up and rest from the impromptu battle.

(End of Chapter 26)

That was harder to write than I thought. I'm starting to realize how complicated working with a large cast of characters in one place really is. Hopefully I can fix that in the coming chapters. I hope this was to your liking.

Also I realize I have been writing more fanfiction in the span of one year than I think I did in my first 9 years on the site. It's been nearly a year since I decided to chanel my dismay at the state of Fairy Tail into fanfic writing. It's been a hell of a journey with lots of ups and downs, and now with the end of the manga just around the corner, I feel like I've hit a new crossroads.

I'm not saying I will quit writing Celestial Pawn... Just that I will be focusing on other projects too. Projects I hope will draw your interest too. If you have any critiques, or suggestions to try and make the upcoming chapters better, please speak up. If I don't know what's broken I can't fix anything.

That's all I have for today. Enjoy yourselves, and I'll see you in the future.

Author's Notes

*1: A reference to Akeno's VA changing in the dub starting with Season 3.

*2: This is a matter of personal fashion taste for me. I just hate Natsu's look. Call me old fashioned, but men shouldn't wear sandals. Neither should most women. (Yes, I am aware of the irony of a foot fetishist not liking sandals. Don't bother pointing it out.)

*3: A reference to Issei being recast in season 3 for the dub for reasons you'll have to look up for yourself if you don't know already. (Seriously, fuck that guy.)
