A/N: The fourth episode of TD News is here! Hope you enjoy!

Reviews:

G-Man 2.0: It's canon that only Ben out of everyone remaining has met Splinter prior to this, at least in my stories and that took place during the original series' run. Everyone else has yet to meet him.

EndeavorT: Thanks. I'll be sure to fix it.

Several people were seen again on another video call.

"Yo! Glad you could make it!" Dewey exclaimed. "Welcome to the fourth episode of Total Drama News, with your hosts Dewey, that's me…."

"Julie-"

"Huey-"

"And Riley!"

"Now before we start, looks like we've got some new faces here. Awesome! With Heloise also joining in. But unfortunately, Chris and Chef aren't here to attend." Huey said.

"Yeah, I decided to join in this time just to see what goes on in here." Heloise said.

"I heard you guys did this last time. Really sucks I couldn't be a part of the last one. Was busy." Hinata said.

"We did! And even if you did miss it, we're glad to have you here today." Riley replied.

"And, if you didn't know, these episodes are posted online for you to watch in your spare time if you were interested in seeing what you missed." Julie added.

"Good to know. Huh, how come I never knew that until now?" Hinata said.

"Not everyone knows everything. Which is why we learn!" Huey said.

"Speaking of which, you know what I never expected? Diana to show up again!" Akko said. "Or Octavia to show up for the first time. Even Mayuzumi's here. And Blaze."

"Hanamiya's here too." Hinata added.

"I have free time. I was able to get some things done prior to make myself available." Diana explained.

"Hence why I'm getting some other things done while we're here." Tsukishima, wearing headphones said as he was looking down at something.

"Same here. A good time to get some more homework done." Hanamiya said as he was writing in a notebook.

"I know I didn't attend the last one. I don't want to leave here and not at least participate in one." Blaze said.

"Glad to hear it. Also, productivity and multitasking. Nice." Huey said as fizzling was heard from one screen. That screen being Sucy's.

"And it looks like Sucy's working on more potions. Do you plan on using any of those in the season?" Hinata asked.

She simply shrugged.

"You two aren't the only ones being productive. Looks like Myron's heavy at work on some things too." Diego commented as Myron was furiously typing on his laptop.

"I'm listening. Just trying to focus." Myron said.

"Guarantee you if I went to look, Bentley's doing the same thing right now." Sly said.

"Yeah, I know that feeling." Toxsa said, tapping furiously on something.

"Toxsa, whatcha up to?" Dewey asked.

"Doing some leveling. Not going to tackle anything too challenging. But I can use this time to passively level up with some XP." Toxsa answered.

"Gaming. Of course…." Becky F. said, writing something down on a paper as a pen could visibly be seen in her hand.

"What? Respect the grind." Toxsa said.

"You know what? I'll give you credit for being able to sit through so many of those. I tried playing in the arcades one time in that list challenge we did and I couldn't do it."

"That sounds like you either ran out of quarters or rage quit."

"I still had quarters."

"Yeah, you rage quit."

"Well, I definitely was mad, so yes. I rage quit. But can you blame me? It's like the game was reading my inputs! I understand it's supposed to be challenging, but there's a difference between challenge and being straight-up unfair."

"So wait, if you didn't do it, how do you get it done?" May asked.

"Murasakibara. Apparently he knew what he was doing and got through it with not too much difficulty. I wasn't going to question it. I was pretty much done with it anyway."

"Huh. Never took him to be a person that likes games."

"I think it makes sense. Dude acts like a couch potato." Yang said. "Speaking of which, I just noticed something, Murasakibara's not here."

"Like I said, more than likely, he doesn't really care about this." Aomine said.

"You mean you don't know? I thought you guys were friends?" Dewey asked.

"I mean, we are but still, gotta remember that we go to different schools."

"That doesn't mean you still can't talk to each other." Akko said.

"I never said we didn't talk. He probably just didn't think it was too important to tell me. And then there's Kise….. he told me to send the message that he's not gonna make it. He's got a model shoot today."

"People weren't able to attend because they were busy the last time. He's got nothing to worry about." Huey said.

"Akashi's not here either. Or Kagami. Guess you're the only one with free time." Dewey said.

"Not surprised about Akashi. No idea why Kagami's not here. Maybe he's with Rei. She's not here either."

"Like we already said before, a decent bit of new faces and some missing old ones from the last one. While it'd be great to have everyone at the same time, it's not the end of the world."

"Yeah but we need to find some way to get the people that just don't have the ability to come to be able to participate. Like Sebastian. Or any of the Power Stone guys." Adrien said.

"Doing that is easier said than done. Number one, we'd need some way to go to their world. And then, we'd need to find a way to give them access to the internet. Not like it's a case of give them a laptop and problem solved." Doyle said.

"But we travel to different worlds all the time. You mean you guys don't have access to that?" Morty asked.

"Nope. That's put away whenever we don't need it. Probably so no freak accidents happen. Even though I think what happened with Huey still showed it could still happen. Even if it wasn't the tech's fault. Or really anyone's for that matter. How the heck was he supposed to know to not look into the mirror?"

"Where there's a will, there's a way. I think we can figure something out. But for now, let's focus on today and get started with the headlines." Huey said.

"Dethroned!" Dewey exclaimed.

"Every single winner of a previous season was brought back to compete again for another chance to win again. And as of now, all of them have been eliminated. Duncan, Owen, Luz, Heather, Shawn, Cameron, Zoey, Priya, MacArther and Sanders. All of them are out of the running." Julie continued.

"Which leaves room for a completely new contestant to be crowned as a winner of a Total Drama season. Which brings us to our first question. Especially for you first-timers. Did you expect these winners to go out so early? Or did you expect at least one of them to either make the merge or survive until another segment?" Huey asked.

"Honestly, no, I didn't expect them to get that far." Hanamiya said, being the first one to answer, looking up from the math workbook that he was writing his answers and work in.

"Really? Interesting. Was expecting someone to say yes to start things off. Why not?"

"Even if we discounted the ability factor, I don't think they'd be given the opportunity to last that long and make something happen again to end up finding a way to win again. Even if you think it was a fluke or dumb luck, a win is a win. If anything, being booted early for this reason is a compliment to their skill. People took them seriously enough as threats to get rid of them before they became a legitimate problem again."

"Yeah, no. You can't even say that for some of them. Cameron got injured. With Owen it was the case of him or Priya. Shawn got injured. And people would rather have Lotte because of her personality over MacArthur." Heloise said.

"Discounting the injuries of course. But I guess you have a point about MacArthur and Owen. I wasn't around to see those eliminations."

"Uh, I guess I'd have to go with yes." Zee answered.

"One no, one yes. Why's that Zee?" Huey asked, making sure to keep track of the answers.

"If they got far once, they could do it again, right? I mean, they gotta be good enough for that."

"But you didn't really expect them to actually win, did you?" Reagan asked, speaking for the first time.

"Hmm, I don't know. Anything can happen so maybe." Zee answered, shrugging.

"He must take some of us for idiots if he thinks every single one of us would just allow them to get that far to even have a chance." Yulaw thought.

"I guess if I had to choose one, I'd say yes. And it's not just because of their skill. At the very least, even if they get voted off because of them being a threat, it's a better send-off than getting injured. Besides, even if you disagree with him about what he says when it comes to these guys, he's definitely right about the respect factor." Diego answered.

"Respect? Or fear?" Yulaw interjected.

"Respect can come out of fear, if that makes sense. For example, booting Ryu early because people are afraid of how strong he is and/or how strong he could become." Isagi explained.

"It's a good thing that's not a real thing. By the way, to answer the question, I'm gonna say no. At least for the most part. I don't like what happened to Cameron or Shawn, but the others, everyone knew they won. I know not everyone wants to keep them around to prevent the chance of them winning again." Sly said. "With the exception of MacArthur. That was the case of either her or Lotte."

"Maybe you could be afraid of the fact that they could get to the merge again and have a legit shot at winning. But other than that, none of them are people to really be scared of. And that's no offense to them. But in the case of Priya, Zoey, Owen, Shawn, Jasmine and Luz, they're just too nice to say that about them." Rally said.

"What about Sanders? I thought she was okay." Morty said.

"I wouldn't exactly put her in the 'nice' category like those guys. She's not mean either. I just wouldn't say she's super nice."

"And that leaves Heather and Alejandro. I'll be honest here, for the most part, nobody competing here really took them seriously. While I can't say I had a prediction on whether they'd go far or not, especially at the beginning because I wasn't really invested then, I can say that I'm not surprised they couldn't even make it to Wawanakwa." Heloise said.

"I did. It's Heather. You do realize who you're talking about, right? And Alejandro?" Courtney said.

"I didn't exactly take them lightly either. From what Noah told me, they've gotten a lot of people eliminated, whether directly or indirectly." Emma added.

"Yeah, that's because you've been on as many seasons as her. Of course you'd say that. And as for Emma, you're saying that because of Noah. Some people here respect the name, but again, I really don't think a majority, I'll change it to that, of people, took her seriously. Be honest, how many of you actually cared about Heather in terms of taking her seriously and being a threat to the game? And I don't mean just because she won. I mean being a legit player." Heloise asked.

"If you're making this about a power thing, she got to the merge the last time we had people like this. Just saying." Ben said.

"Yeah, even though she was a first boot in the merge because of Huey, think about it, she was able to outlast people like Goku. And of course no one thinks she'd beat Goku in a fight. It's about more than just powers and abilities because Total Drama isn't just some fistfight." Rally said.

"You know, you say that, and then I think about the boatload of challenges that involve fighting of some kind. I'm not saying you're wrong, because I definitely agree with you, but I still find that funny." Doyle said.

"Yeah I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to say no to your question Huey. Other than maybe Luz because of her magic, I can't say I'm surprised they're gone this early." Octavia answered. "Even if you say the show is about strategy, which I can understand, think about the majority of challenges that were done. For the most part, none of them could keep pace with the others. And the ones that did, it's because they had to be very creative and unconventional, Chris had to indirectly help them with some of the challenge conditions to keep things fair for everyone, or in some cases, it may quite honestly be legitimately they're good at whatever's being done for the day." Octavia explained.

"What? Are you guys crazy!?" Kaz exclaimed in utter disbelief. "How can so many of you say no!?"

"Because we all have different opinions? I personally don't see anything wrong with what she said. As surprising as it was at first for me, when you take a step back to think, it's not surprising at all. Why exactly do you disagree then?" Mayuzumi said.

"Because, I don't care what it is. YOU DON'T EVER UNDERESTIMATE THE HEART OF A CHAMPION! So of course I'm surprised they didn't last longer! Do you think I'd ever underestimate or disrespect the guys that have won before me and our team in Scan2Go? Unless you cheated or played dirty, I would never do that! Because they all worked to show that they're good enough to even win!"

"Fair enough. But you don't have to yell. We're right here."

"I don't know, I'm not really sure if challenges are that much of a factor. Some of the challenges before we all got here were pretty crazy." Doyle said.

"Yeah. There was this one challenge with dinosaurs-" Zee started before Octavia and Blake cut him off.

"We already know what you're talking about." They both said.

"Wait, really? How?"

"Don't worry about it. Just know that we don't want to hear it again." Octavia answered.

"Wait, what are you guys talking about?" Kaz asked.

"You don't want to know." Blake said.

Miyuki was already looking for it and found it.

"You actually looked it up? Why?"

"Come on, I was curious." He answered.

"Well, what was it? Come on, tell me!" Kaz said.

"You're from the future. Look it up yourself."

"What!? What kind of-"

"Please take our word for it. Don't try to look for it." Octavia said. "Zee, don't say anything." She added the minute he saw him about to say something.

A sound was heard, indicating that a new person had joined. That person being Johnny. "Man. I'm late. It's not over is it?"

"We're still on the first question if that helps." Mr. Wolf answered.

"Oh, good. So, what's the question?"

"We were asking about the eliminated winners of previous seasons. And whether or not you expected them to last longer than they did." Riley answered.

"Uh, good question. I don't know."

Several people looked at him with deadpan looks.

"Well, at least he was honest." Doyle said.

More answers were given by some of the others.

"Alright. A bit of discourse here. But, not a problem. Some really interesting reasonings behind these answers too." Huey said.

Some of the 'No' answers included(Besides those that already answered): Sucy, Becky F., Louie, Myron and Hiruma, Kageyama

Some of the 'Yes' answers included(Besides those that already answered): Akko, Hinata, Toxsa, Yulaw, Kaz, Aomine, Diana, Morty and Miyuki (Though Miyuki and Yulaw were lying, though Yulaw's lie had a more malicious intent, which was to keep his façade)

"Alright, let's move on to the next headline, this one less TD related." Huey said.

"Cats or Dogs? That is the question. Well, sort of. One thing that seems to be a common trend is the fact that several of the contestants here own and have expressed their love for either cats or dogs." Riley said.

"Not to mention that Rats, ironically named by Chris, have several cat contestants or contestants related to cats in some way." Dewey added.

"So, for those that haven't gotten a chance to say this any other time, is your favorite animal a cat or a dog? Or is it neither? And also, do you have said animal as a pet? Within reason of course." Julie asked.

"Hmm, I don't know what kind of pet I'd want. As long as it's cool." Zee said.

"We'll take that as an answer too. Anyone else?"

"Ryoma and Dan said they had cats actually. But I guess that doesn't guarantee that it's their favorite animal though." Hinata said.

"Guess we could ask them, but oh wait. Where are they? At home." Aomine said. "But anyways, to answer your question. I can't really say I have one. Wouldn't say I'm really interested in owning a pet either but I guess something like a Pitbull would be cool if I could choose one. Maybe a rottweiler?"

"Wait a sec, Ryoma's gone?" Johnny asked, surprised.

"Yeah. Guy really went from beast to bust in a matter of….." Todd started before counting on his fingers. "Two episodes."

"Two episodes? What?" Riley said in disbelief and confusion.

"Other than the Tennis challenge, he really wasn't that special. And notice that was the time he showed he could copy stuff. Something that, I don't know, would have been useful several episodes ago."

"What about the Kart racing challenge? The Mayhem one? Look, I know he messed up, and I didn't like it either but come on, let's not have one mistake overshadow everything good he's done." Isagi said.

"Okay, I guess I'll give him the mayhem one, but even then, everyone was given some crazy over the top stuff. Just imagine what I would have been like if I played. But the kart racing one? He did good, but I'm not giving him credit for that. When I say two episodes, I mean showing that's like 'wow, I know for sure I can't do that'. I literally did what he did on the snowboard race and won."

"Man, now I kinda feel bad for him. Really didn't expect that mind trick to actually get him in trouble." Johnny said.

"Mind trick? What mind trick?" Riley asked.

"One of the powers I had as the Duke guy."

"Dooku. But wait, of course! It makes sense! Mind tricks! Some really good thinking Johnny. Not bad." Reagan said.

"Pfft, I could do that. Heck, I would have done it at the start. Because clearly he didn't think about it until later on. So slow your role lady." Todd said.

"Sure you would have. Just like you would have done all the work around the house you were asked to do if you didn't have important stuff to do, forcing me to do it myself a couple days ago?" Riley said, sarcasm in her voice.

"It was important stuff!"

All Riley gave him was a look.

"Anyways Aomine, If you're not interested in a pet, why make the scenario of 'If I could choose one'?" Riley asked. "I guess it's a case of being unable to get one."

"No, it's not that. If I asked for one, as long as they could afford it, my parents probably wouldn't care. So that's not the issue. It's just, I don't wanna have to go through all that effort in taking care of one you know? I know pets need a lot of care and attention to make sure they stay healthy and stuff like that. But I know how I am too. I'm not gonna be able to put in the effort needed to make sure whatever it is I get is okay. It would break my heart to see them die, especially if it's my fault. I get a cool, tough lookin' dog and then he just looks at me as he's goin' away. I can't do it."

"Oh. I can completely understand where you're coming from." Riley said.

"Good job you blue-haired dolt. Now I can't get the image of Zwei dying out of my head." Weiss said.

"Look, she asked the question. I was just being honest. It's not like I wanted to- who's Zwei? And are you…. crying?" Aomine asked.

"No!... Maybe a little!" She dabbed her eyes with a napkin.

"Don't you worry. We're gonna make sure you stay healthy okay?" Ruby was heard saying, clutching a dog with an affectionate embrace.

"Is that Zwei?" Aomine asked.

"Yep, that's him! Another member of our team!" Yang exclaimed.

"Didn't take you to be a dog lover. I thought you'd be a cat person. Sorry."

"For what?"

"Not you. Weiss."

"There's always the saying of you not to judge a book by its cover."

"No I mean, I'm sorry for getting you down. And it looks like you're not the only one." He said, looking around at some of the other screens with Akko actually turning off her cam because she was crying.

"You gave an honest answer. I don't really think there's much for you to apologize about." Octavia said frankly.

"They do say the truth hurts. And this one definitely hurts. I don't even own a pet and that picture in my head makes me sad." Doyle said.

"Octavia's right. You don't need to be sorry. You were honest. As sad as it was, I don't have a problem with that answer at all. Besides, I meant what I said about judging a book by its cover in more ways than just that." Weiss said.

"Good to know. But that last part? I don't get it." Aomine said bluntly.

Weiss could only smile and shake her head. "Don't worry about it. Huey, did you all take me into account?"

"Just did it. Anyone else?" Huey asked after scribbling things down on a notepad.

"You did get Sebastian right? That guy loves his cats." Ben asked.

"And hates dogs just as much it seems. But yeah, I already got him down."

"While I can respect his opinion, I have to a hundred percent disagree. I love dogs!" Hinata exclaimed.

"Dinosaurs." Tsukishima simply said before looking back down, continuing to work.

"Cat guy. Don't hate dogs though." Toxsa answered.

"Our household does have possession of dogs." Diana answered. "And I have an owl as a familiar."

"A wha? That just sounds like you got a lot of fur and hair to clean up."

"Of course. That is what comes with owning them."

"Familiars are magical creatures that accompany witches. So in a way, they're like pets or companions. Just like Will-o-Chan here!" Lotte explained before softly grazing it's chin when it jumped down from off a bookshelf after hearing its name.

Sucy looks up at the screen. "Hmm, I can't say I really have a favorite. Or really one I hate either. As long as they don't annoy me, I probably won't care. But, if it helps, I got a snake familiar not too long ago."

"Wait, you have a snake familiar? Since when!?" Akko asked, cam still off.

"Since a few weeks before we came to the show. Why are you surprised? We were literally in class together when this happened."

"Don't you remember? You got a lizard, but Diana's owl ate it." Lotte said to Akko.

"Don't remind me." Akko grumbled.

"Wait, if you remember that, how did you forget about Sucy having a snake?"

"I don't know."

"Akko was pretty upset when that happened. She probably tuned everything else out after that." Sucy said.

"Akko why do you keep muting and unmuting your mic? Just leave it unmuted." Kageyama asked.

"Why does it matter? It's not like it's bothering you." She said.

"The constant clicking from you doing that over and over is."

"If it bothers you, sorry, but I'm not going to stop just because you of all people said so. You get annoyed at a lot of things anyway."

"I get annoyed at a lot of things because they're annoying! Like what you're doing!"

"Okay, I think that's enough. Look Akko, maybe you've got your reasons in muting and unmuting yourself. And if you do, try to find a way to stop the clicking. I'm not annoyed by it, but I definitely hear it." Mr. Wolf said.

"I don't know if I'll be able to stop it but, to answer the question, I have a cat." She muted her mic again.

"Can you move the mic away? Probably the easiest the solve it." Sly proposed.

"I can't really say I care to own a pet." Blaze answered.

"Same here." Yulaw said. This answer being the truth.

"Cat!" Sena quickly said, turning back on the cam.

"Dude, you okay? You look like you just ran in here in a rush." Toxsa asked.

"That's probably because he did." Blaze said.

"Sorry. Had to get a few things from the store for my parents." Sena said.

"Imagine errands and chores with your super speed. Or any of the others here. I'd be done so quick!" Todd commented.

"I know that feeling. When I got the Omnitrix when I was 10, guess what was one of the things I used it for? That's not named fighting evil."

"Chores?"

"Yep. I still remember having to tone it down on some days when I was with my parents though. They were starting to get suspicious. Of course, that was during the time when they couldn't know that I had it. Like a secret identity type of thing."

"That's the one thing I don't understand, and I'm glad you brought that up. So you're famous now, but no one could know about it back then when you were 10. Why?" Yang asked.

"Think about what you've seen me do with it. I could use an alien cat's powers. And a saiyan's. And so many other things that were already in it that I didn't have to scan to use. Would make sense that a lot of people would want it, right?"

"I get all of that. Trying to protect your family and all. I guess what I'm trying to get at is, what changed?"

"Two words: Jimmy Jones. Big fan of mine. I could have sworn I said this to someone here but I might just be getting things mixed up. He ran a blog that has sightings of aliens around the world, mine included. He posted a video that revealed me using some of those aliens. And poof, just like that, secret identity gone. And oh, to answer the animal question, we had a German Shepherd. Had him since I was a kid. Eventually, my parents sent my dog to live on a farm upstate so he could play with other farm dogs."

"Taking care of pets while travelling is easier said than done. I don't know if that's the reason but, even if it wasn't, with all the things you've said you've done, I imagine it'd be hard to find time to really give the love and attention he needs." Fiona said before petting Toto on top of her head. "I guess that's the benefit of having someone that's so small." She added, referring to Toto.

"Oh yeah? Zak's got somethin' to say about that." Doyle said. "Of course, in his case, they're not exactly 'pets'. They're family."

"Fiskerton, Zon and Komodo. Wonder if Zon's jealous that she's the only one that's yet to make an appearance on the show?" Ben commented.

"She probably doesn't care about that. Or maybe she does. I could be wrong."

"Well, if it helps, I've got Bobo." Rex said. "That's my answer to the question by the way." Seconds later, he was hit by a ball.

"Don't ever call me a pet again. I take offense to that." Bobo was heard saying off-camera from a distance. "None of these pets got anything on me. Not even in the looks department. Can Happy fight EVOs? That's what I thought. And you can tell him I said that too."

"Sure thing. You know, maybe this wouldn't happen if you were there to say something on the call."

"I already said I'm not doin' it. So stop bringin' it up."

"Any reason why he doesn't wanna join in?" Hinata asked.

"Said he was gonna be busy." Rex said before getting close to the camera and whispering, "Busy sleeping in and stinking up the room."

"I heard that!"

"You wouldn't respond like that if it wasn't true!" Rex turned back to face the camera. "Jokes aside, I'd love to have a pet. Not sure which one though." He then heard a strange noise. "Is someone….. snoring?"

"Now that you mention it…." Riley said, now hearing it too.

After a bit, they were able to zero in on the source. The source being Furuya, who had his cam off.

"It's Furuya. Should we kick him?" Dewey asked in a low voice.

"Everyone, mute your volume." Miyuki said.

"For what? Please tell me this isn't one of your 'tricks'." Yulaw asked.

"I'm about to wake up Furuya. But hey, if you want to leave yourself unmuted, I can't stop you."

Not even wanting to really deal with his antics, even through questioning, he decided to just mute his volume.

An airhorn was heard blaring through Furuya's speakers, making him jump awake. Although Becky and Akko(though her cam was off), were covering their ears in pain.

"If you're gonna sleep, next time, don't just turn off your cam, mute your mic too." He said to him.

Seconds later, another person joined in. And a second one seconds later. The first person being the Becky Botsford. And the second being Bennett.

"Hey everyone. Sorry I'm late. Unfortunately, this was happening during the start of a new Pretty Princess and Magic Pony Power Hour episode. I absolutely couldn't miss it." Becky said before noticing her older peer and first name sharer in pain. "Is she okay?"

"I warned her." Miyuki said.

"What did you do now?"

"Nothing but wake Furuya up. I told them to mute but she decided not to listen for some reason."

"Yeah, that's because I thought you were pulling one of your tricks again." Farrah said.

"You can't exactly blame her for thinking that way. You and Hiruma are known to pull stuff like that." Sly said.

"What was that for!?" Akko said, turning on her camera, visibly upset. While it couldn't be fully seen, an empty plate with icing could partially be seen.

"So that's what you were doing. You may be a lot of things, but it looks like ill-mannered isn't one of them."

"Whatever. It's a good thing I already finished. Otherwise, it would have been a disaster."

"Apparently I missed a lot." Bennett finally said.

"Want us to go over what you missed?" Huey asked.

"No, no I'm fine. I think it's best I don't know. If I find it important enough, I'll go back and watch the episode. These are posted online, right?"

"Yes."

"Alright then. I'll just go with my plan."

"Pretty Princess and Magic Pony Power Hour? I've never heard of that show." Riley said to Becky B.

"I absolutely can't recommend it enough. Of course, you should probably check if it even exists where you're from. After all, there's still the whole thing of different worlds. Of course, there's the different things I like about the plot but, I'd rather bit spoil anything. If you like ponies like I do, then this is definitely the show for you."

"You know, as a matter of fact, I actually do. I'll be sure to check it out."

"Great! Tell me what you think! Of course, if it exists there. And, if you get around to it by the time we meet again for a challenge."

"Well, we actually planned to schedule another meet-up to finish off the catchphrases thing we did a decent while back. I don't know when we'll do it, but more than likely, I'll have enough time to watch some episodes and we can talk. I don't like to make judgements until after I watch at least a few episodes."

"A few? That's a waste of time. The first episode is supposed to get you excited. If I don't like it after the first episode, I'm not gonna watch it. Heck, I might turn it off before then." Todd said.

"I understand the first episode should be a hook, but at the same time, if it's-" Becky B. started before Todd cut her off.

"No buts! If the first episode's bad or boring, I'm not watching the rest! Just that simple!"

"He's not wrong. First episode of Unicorn Commander, the show I was watching before we got here, I was hooked. Some others, not so much." Bennett said.

"Unicorn commander? Sounds like some girly show. Opinions invalid."

"Unicorn Commander is not a girly show. It's-"

"Blah blah blah, don't try to sugarcoat it. You just exposed yourself!"

"It's okay Bennett. Nothing wrong with watching a show like that. My little brother TJ? He secretly likes Pretty Princess too."

"No I don't! Stop lying to your friends!" TJ called out from behind the closed door of her room.

"And you stop eavesdropping!"

"I wasn't eavesdropping, I just- wait, what does eavesdropping mean?"

"Eavesdropping. It's the act of secretly listening to something said in private."

"And what you're doing isn't private! So like I said, it's not eavesdropping! I just happened to overhear you lying about me, so I had to defend myself."

"Whatever. Stop eavesdropping!"

"I'm not eavesdropping!" TJ insisted before leaving. Or at least pretending that he was.

"TJ! You better not be still listening!"

"Sorry about that. Anyways Bennett-"

"Don't 'anyway' me. We can move on from this. I already made it clear that Unicorn Commando is not a girl show."

"Sounds like one to me." Todd said.

Bennett tried to ignore him and change the subject. "What's the next question?"

"Actually, we're still on the current one. About whether your favorite animal is a cat or dog. Or something else. And if you have a pet." Dewey said.

"I actually did have a dog. Duke. Until he left us."

"Oh. I'm sorry to hear that."

"Not that type of leave. He just….. ran away." Bennett said, surprisingly indifferent.

"You're definitely not telling the truth on that. And that's okay. People grieve in different ways." Huey said.

"What are you talking about? I literally just told you the truth."

"Then how come you're so….. indifferent about it? No offense." May asked.

"Like I said, he's not dead. And it's not like he just ran off without me knowing. So there's nothing for me to really be sad about. I know he's okay and that's all that matters."

"So you just let him run off? That's even worse! What is wrong with you!?" Weiss said.

"I didn't let him do anything! He had to leave!"

"You're saying this as if he told you this. You're not making any sense!"

Bennett facepalmed. "This is what I get for being open about myself."

"Then just don't say anything four-eyes." Hiruma said bluntly.

"Honestly Bennett, I can't say I'm a fan of everything you've told us so far." Becky B. said, frowning. And this sentiment was shared by several others too.

"Guys, you've known me for how long now? You know I wouldn't do something like that. I love Duke." Bennett said.

"Love isn't letting your dog run away you heartless monster!" Akko said.

"Dude, if you didn't wanna take care of him, you should have said that. I know it was before you got here but at least Aomine was honest." Toxsa said.

"Note to self, don't join one of these again." Bennett said to himself low before Old Bennett appeared behind him, as a projection of course.

"Hey!" Old Bennett said, causing his younger self to yelp and fall out of the chair.

"With how you keep doing this, are you sure you're not an older Kuroko and have been projecting to my mind by mistake all this time?"

"Very funny. But kid, what in the world are you doing!? Have you lost your mind!?"

"Oh great. Even I hate myself."

"I don't hate you. But everyone else, considering how vague you were, it's reasonable that they would."

"You know, I thought he was talking to someone else in his house, but then I remembered about the projection thing. I'm guessing he took off whatever Rick made to have us see him." Julie said as their exchange continued.

"Why though? He's coming back. Just keep it on." Aomine said.

"Time travel rules. Come on, how do you not know that?" Todd said. "What do you think would happen if a bunch of people saw him talking to his older self? The projection thing is to make it safer."

Old Bennett began to speak. "All right, look. There's a misunderstanding here. I, he, did not let his dog run away because-"

"They can't see you." Young Bennett told him.

"Oh. Right. Forgot."

"Hold on a sec." Young Bennett said before leaving. Several seconds later, everyone could see the Older Bennett.

"Can they see me now?" He asked.

"Yep, we can see you, gray beard and all. Wonder who's older, him, or Rick?" Todd said.

"We are not here to discuss my age and whether or not I'm older than Rick, who thank goodness isn't here. I'm here to clear things up and leave. It wasn't the case of him not wanting to take care of him or anything like that. Quite the opposite. His parents, well, my past ones, didn't want pets because of how small the apartment was. But I, he, promised to take care of him and do everything. Walk him outside, feed him, groom him, all of it. I guess that and getting on my mom's good side about her uh….. new lasagna recipe, convinced them. And we did all of that. And then Penelope….." Old Bennett said before grunting.

"She goaded me, him, into teaching Duke too much. Heck, she was the reason I got him. As much as we loved him, getting him just because we wanted him wasn't the reason. It was Penelope."

"She had a cat, and insulted me and my family by saying we were too poor to afford a pet. So, that's when I asked for one. And she came back a second time and called him dumb. So I had to prove her wrong." Young Bennett added. "And yes, I have experience with snobbish, insufferable, rich girls prior to being here."

"I am not insufferable!" Weiss said.

"Yeah, she's not. She's just unfunny." Aomine said.

"Not funny. Didn't laugh."

"Don't let Noelle hear you say that." Fiona commented.

"Any thoughts Diana?" Miyuki asked.

"No." Diana said matter-of-factly.

"You were a big snob at one point." Akko said.

"One who thought she was better than everyone else." Kageyama added.

"I may not be. But I know for sure I'm better than you at tennis." Diana said to him.

"See what I'm talking about!? Was that really needed!?"

"You didn't have to do anything. Like I said, she goaded you." Old Bennett said to Young Bennett. "Same to you Kageyama, that was obvious bait. Although hers was definitely less malicious and more for fun."

"Huh. Well that's a surprise." Sucy said.

"What? Did you finish up a potion?" Lotte asked.

"No. I mean what the older Bennett said."

"There's nothing about what I said that should be surprising." Old Bennett said.

"That's because you don't exactly know us very well. I'll leave it at that."

"I still have no idea what you're talking about. But to finish things up, he made earmuffs to make Duke smarter and it backfired because the helmet ended up going haywire, causing all of the breakers in the house's fuse box to trip. We wouldn't notice anything until the day was over with. Apparently he got turned into a mob boss. Or at least, that was what he was pretending to be. He was actually secretly a part of a federal agency, trying to bust deals with some criminals. No, he wasn't born to grow up like this. In between the days we got him to put on the helmet, he must have gotten like that. No idea how he was able to do all of that and pull all of that off every night though." Old Bennett said. "There, the end. That's the real story. Oh, and apparently Penelope's cat got a hand on the earmuffs and became a crime lord too, one Duke had to stop."

"That sounds way too unbelievable. But then again, with everything that I've seen, I legitimately think this is plausible." Courtney said.

"A dog that's a criminal. Wonder where I've heard that story before….. but anyways, sounds real to me. Real tame compared to some of the other things I've had to deal with on adventures." Sly said, the dogg referring to Mugghsot.

"I don't really care. I just want to get this over with." Octavia commented.

"Huh. You know, Rick did the same thing with Snuffles. Our dog. He left too. Though in his case, he went to a planet of other smart dogs like him. So, it's not exactly out of the realm of possibility." Morty said.

"Hmm, now that I think about it, I don't know if I have a favorite. I'd love to have a pet but I'm not sure which one I'd like." Lotte said.

"Maybe a fish?" Sucy proposed.

"Taki has a hamster. Maybe you'd like one too?" Kurita proposed.

"Maybe. I don't know." Lotte said.

Other favorites or pets from others included polar bears from Furuya , saying that he has respect for them, as they're resistant to loneliness, and a surprising appearance from Kunigami as well, who said that polar bears was his favorite animal. Along with this, Bachira, who also joined at the last minute, said that dolphins were his favorite. Isagi's was a spiny lobster, Rei's was crows and pandas, Kagami and Adrien said that they don't have a favorite but the latter said he'd love to have one. Though a cat, funny enough would not be his first choice. Mamori said she doesn't have a favorite because there isn't any animal she particularly dislikes.

Hiruma said that he handles most of the duties of taking care of both the dog and pig, Cerberus and Pig-Berus, but said that he doesn't have time for pets. Though some believe that this is just Hiruma's way of saying they're his pets without outright saying it.

"Not one I like or dislike. I just never cared about owning one to be honest. And besides, with how much I work, I'm not gonna have time to take care of em. And unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I don't have anyone I can just give them too." Reagan answered.

"You don't have family or friends you trust to give them to?" Riley asked.

"Well, there's Brett. But, I'd rather take care of it myself. Nobody I trust more than me. Much as I like the others I work with, I still don't trust them to take care of any pet I get if I did care to get one."

"And it looks like that's everyone. Thank you for all your answers! More dog lovers than what was previously known, but it still looks like cats are leading." Julie said.

"I know that they're not here, but don't forget about turtles, Libby absolutely loves them." Diego said.

"Don't worry, we got it. But now that you're here, we actually have a question for you Heloise. About the last challenge."

"Let me guess, it's about who the guys were that weren't picked." Heloise inferred.

"Actually yeah. Spot on. Look, I love the challenge idea, but this is one I needed to be in and am sad I wasn't and probably won't get a chance to be in one like that again." Dewey said.

"I figured. Hence why I went through the trouble of going through most of you to see, since I can't exactly scan you through the screen."

"Really? Sweet! Do me first!"

"Let's see, you and Randy were also Leonardo, yes that Leonardo." Heloise said before showing a picture of the well-known ninja turtle.

"Tell me you're joking." Randy said.

"Nope. Everything that I'm going to show you is a hundred percent accurate."

"This makes me both happy, and sad, knowing that I could have been this but couldn't." Dewey said.

"You could have also been Sonic too."

"Wait, the Sonic the Hedgehog? He's a video game icon!?" Toxsa said.

"Funny enough, I know he's not here, but Kurt's Eggman too."

"Wow. A speedster duck versus a mad-scientist racer in another world. I can't help but laugh at that image in my head." Adrien said.

"Let's see, who else….. a few Sailor Guardians were found. Lotte's actually Sailor Moon. Lucy, Courtney and Ayame are all Venus. Mamori's Mercury. And Julie's Mars. Courtney's actually Mars too. I'd have to go back and see if there's anyone for Jupiter. Haven't seen anything."

"Three for Minako? Wow. Definitely not jealous at all." Rei said.

"Well, if it helps you feel better, you're actually a Power Ranger too."

"A Power Ranger? That's awesome! Which one? Is she one of the classic ones?" Kagami asked.

"Hyperforce Black."

"Hyperforce? I've never heard of that one." Morty said. "Man, I am so out of the loop when it comes to the new stuff."

"How about Time Force?'"

"Uh… I don't think so."

"I actually thought about using Time Force. Was curious but I decided to try Mystic Force instead. I'm glad we won but I'm really sad I couldn't try out more." Adrien said.

"How many did you have? Since you could see everything you could do?" Morty asked.

"Uh, a good bit. Mighty Morphin, Wild Force, Dino Thunder, Ninja Storm, In Space, Lightspeed Rescue, Turbo, Lost Galaxy, SPD, Zeo, Alien, probably some others I can't remember off the top of my head. And those are the ones I didn't get a chance to use."

"Wow, that's crazy man. So like, with a full team, what would the drawbacks even be? You have all that on top of their own powers?"

"Probably time limit. I couldn't sustain that legendary mode for too long. And changing forms takes away more time. Hence why I only changed numerous times like that at the end, where I felt like we actually needed it. And admittedly, to have more fun with it too."

"Makes sense. That's still really good though."

"In theory. Your abilities are only as good as the person that uses them. Take Haizaki for example. While his ability to steal skills is a great asset, knowing when and how to use the moves is an entirely different challenge." Blaze said.

"A challenge that can simply be too much for some. Even if you think you've learned and know how to use those moves, the learning never stops." Diana added.

"Yeah, not gonna lie, sometimes, less is more. As insane as Kise can get, trying to keep up with how to do all of that? I don't know if I could handle it." Aomine said.

"I don't think so. I'd love to be able to do all of those things. It unlocks a lot of versatility." Kageyama said.

"Versatility that you'll have to learn." Diana reminded him.

"So? That doesn't intimidate in the slightest. I'm not afraid to put in the time and effort to learn and practice."

"Even tennis?"

"Doesn't matter what it is! If I want it bad enough, I'll work to achieve it!"

"Same here. I didn't get as far as I got in Blue Lock by staying who I was in the beginning. I had to adapt and evolve. And I'll continue to do that. That is how I'll be the best striker in the world!" Isagi declared.

"Oh, speaking of Blue Lock, I found a couple of them here too." Heloise said.

"Really? Who?" Isagi asked.

"Hold on a sec, let me finish with Rei. She was also a genie too. Shantae."Heloise said, showing the picture of Shantae.

"A Power Ranger and a genie? You know what? I'll take it." Rei said, smiling. "So what about Kagami? Does he have some cool guys?"

"Let's see, Hunter AKA The Golden Guard. Signatures look like they originate from the same place Luz is from. Alan, Ben knows him. Goh, who's a Pokemon trainer, Kunigami, The Flash, Josuke, Nino, Dee Jay, Cyborg, look, there's a lot. And for some, it'd take way too long for me to cover all of them. If you want, I'll just send the list over to you guys. Paper, email, text, whatever's cool with you."

"Text or paper's fine." Kagami said.

"I'll just list all of the ones that I, or ones you guys, might find interesting."

"Man, as great as this is, this doesn't do anything but make me even more upset that I couldn't play." Kagami added.

"Wow. Can't believe Nino's there. I don't really see it. Or, well. hear it. But then again, a lot of these don't make sense. No offense to anyone of course." Adrien said.

"Alright, knowing that that's what Kagami's got. And Weiss got Robin, what have I got?" Aomine asked.

"Toxsa, obviously, Skeletor, Hoagie, signature is from the same place Kuki, Wallabee and Abigail are from, Nino and Eddie Brock."

"Eddie Brock? You mean the Venom guy? That's actually kinda sick."

"You do realize what the symbiote is, right? I don't think that's a good thing man." Morty said.

"Venom's cool man. Villains can still be cool."

"Let's see, there's also Barou, Yami, Abbacchio, Undertaker and Sukuna."

"Wait, you mean the WWE Guy? Bullsh*t." Kunigami said.

"Nope. This guy's from the same place Sebastian's from actually. Abacchio and Josuke also originate from where Jotaro's from."

"Barou? Interesting. But it makes sense when you think about it. Barou's an incredible scorer. And he's kinda got a similar attitude on the field as Aomine too. But Sukuna? I don't think anyone here knows who that last one is." Isagi said.

"Looks like Sukuna's from the same place Maki is."

"That doesn't tell us anything. He could be some nobody that suc-" Aomine started before Heloise put the picture up to show him.

"Here's the picture." She said.

"Look at this. A Pokemon trainer or this guy? You tell me which one you guys would rather be."

"A DC superhero, that's what." Kagami said.

"Venom's better buddy."

"He's better, but who'd win in a fight?"

"I mean in terms of style."

"Don't try to be specific now! Answer my question!"

"Don't know. Who the hell do you think I am, Death Battle? Unless it's obvious I can't really say."

"Cyborg easy. One strong blast with his sonic blasts and it's over. You gonna look bada*s without a suit?"

"Anything can happen idiot. Okay, just cause Superman's stronger than Flash does that mean he's gonna beat him? No."

"Oh yeah pick a matchup between the guy that can time travel versus the guy that can't."

"Can we chill with the nerd talk? Let's move on with something else." Miyuki said.

"It's not nerd talk, it's comics!" Aomine and Kagami said simultaneously.

"I never knew you were this in-tuned with this type of stuff Kagami." Rei said.

"Me neither. Again, you two could really-" Weiss started before they cut her off.

"No!" Kagami said.

"A hundred percent absolutely not." Aomine said.

"You both seem to have fine people. Why are you arguing about this?" Weiss asked.

"Uh huh. You'd say this when pretty much the only thing you've got is one of the best things you could be." Aomine said.

"Robin? Forgive my ignorance, but I don't see what's so special about him."

Several people had shocked looks on their faces. "You almost made me leave the call."

"What? Is it really that bad?"

"You are the sidekick to Batman! Batman!" Ben exclaimed. "I'd want to be Batman's sidekick! Also, Alan's nothing to sleep on. He's cool too."

"And so are you apparently. Robin, Gen, Smoke, Sasuke, Spider-Man, He-Man, Mercury, Vilgax, Lizard, the Prince of Per-"

"Hold the phone. Forget Spider-Man. Or Robin. Or He-Man. Vilgax!? I need proof. Now."

"Here you go." Heloise said, showing a picture. And it was a picture of Vilgax fighting an alternate version of his 10-year-old self with a green and black t-shirt instead of his usual black and white one. This shirt also had the number 10 on it.

"That has to be fake. I refuse to believe that I'm….. Vilgax?"

"Uh, who's Vilgax?" Rex asked. He wouldn't get an answer as the second Heloise showed another picture of that world's Ben fighting him as an alien, he immediately left the chat. "Ookay."

"Leaving the chat over that? He can't be that bad." Yang said.

"Now I'm actually kinda half-curious, half-afraid. You know what? Just lay it on me. Who am I?"

"Figured you'd ask that too. Let's see…. how many of you have seen or heard of Spy Kids?" Heloise asked.

"I've heard of it." Reagan said.

"Okay so at least one you have heard of it. Good enough."

"What does one person have to-" Kagami started before he was cut off.

"Well, he's Juni. One of the main characters from the series. Puss has got something there too. He's actually your dad."

"Yeah, now I can't get the image of a 2 foot cat being my father out of my head. Thanks for that." Rex said. "Anything else? Something, you know, not weird?"

"Uh… let's see, Butch Magnus. Originates from Woodcrest where Huey and Riley are from. He apparently knocked out the latter after Riley called him B*tch Magnus. Verbatim by the way."

"I said something that's cool."

"Let's see, there's Jason."

"Jason? Hockey mask? Machete?"

"No. Really smart guy. Had a crush on Velma. Really-"

"Wait, Velma? Velma, Velma, Velma. Oh my goodness, why does that name sound so familiar?" Johnny said, holding his head. "Hold on, gotta dig into my mind…. Velma! I got it! Now I remember! How in the world could I forget? Wonder how she's doin'?"

"Velma was here actually. In the last Multiverse season." Doyle said.

"Really? Did she win!?"

"Luz won. If she won, Velma would have been there instead of Luz."

"Oh yeah. You're right."

"Okay, so I got a crush on someone in another world. Pretty decent. How do I-" Rex started before Heloise showed a picture of him. He was cubby with orange-red hair wirh pale skin, metal braces on his teeth and a short-sleeved shirt along with glasses. "Man!" Rex said, facepalming.

"There's also Scorn. He's like the anti-Robin to Wrath's anti-Batman. His sidekick basically."

"Who the heck is Wrath?"

"Yeah, I've never heard of this guy." Morty said.

"This is him." Heloise said, showing him.

"So I'm basically an evil knock-off Robin. That's better. I guess? Anything else?"

"Uh, not really."

"Look at it this way, you're the best out of all of em. So if they were to ever come here, all of them would look to you." Bobo said, off-screen.

"Wishful thinking. But most of them, except for maybe the knock-off Robin guy probably don't know anything about this and multiverse stuff."

"You've never seen Spy Kids?" Reagan asked.

"Nope. No clue what that is. But uh, I'd rather know I at least have something where I can't picture a cat as my dad."

"Oh! Almost forgot! Polar Express! The main kid? The boy? This is also you." Heloise said, taking out another picture and showing it to him.

"Polar Express? That is a classic dude. Trust me, that is an honor to have." Kagami said.

"Hot chocolate! I think I remember that movie. Was pretty good." Zee said.

"'That's the way things happen on the polar express!'" Several people were heard singing.

"There's so many movies and things I've never heard of that seem like they're really fun. Honestly, it's really easy to forget that during these challenges. And when it hits you, it really makes you feel left out." Ruby said.

"Probably the only good thing about the mansion. TV.' Louie said.

"If we had it, I'd definitely be down to watch stuff together." Rei said.

"I'll be honest, I never really took advantage of Interdimensional Cable the first time we were on the island. Could be decent with a few people." Courtney said.

"Yeah, she definitely needs it. Saying that about Robin is crazy." Aomine said, referring Weiss.

"I wasn't trying to be offensive. Honest!" She insisted.

"People say that about a lot of things. You still need to check out some Batman stuff. Or at least read a comic or too."

"Yeah, this talk's definitely a good sign. I'll take it." Rex said.

"Oh yeah, and you're also Rhino. Spider-Man villain. And Heatblast."

"Wait, isn't that second one of Ben's aliens?"

"Yes, but it's not your Ben in this case."

"Still though, I have to picture myself getting locked up by Ben or being used by him. Really?"

"Not your Spider-Man either."

"Too late. Not helping."

"Speaking of which, what do I have?" Ruby asked.

"Remember Lilac from camper season? You're the older sister of one of her friends. A good pilot too. Not much else to note." Heloise informed.

"A pilot? I was really hoping to get more but, okay. I guess something's better than nothing."

"Okay, I'll bite. What have I got?" Octavia asked.

"Didn't expect you to be here to be honest. So, I don't know." Heloise said, shrugging.

"And you didn't bother to look?" She asked, eyebrow raised.

"Nope."

"Of course you didn't." Octavia said, sighing in annoyance.

"Did you look for me?" Sophie asked.

"Almost decided not to, but yeah. I decided to look up the ones that competed in the chance they did ask. Let's see….. Mallow, another Pokemon trainer. Stella and Tecna, both fairies, just thought that one would be interesting to you, since, you know, magic and all. Sarah AKA ChaotiKween. April O'Neil. Yes, that April. Yellow jumpsuit one. Kari Tsukumo, a Yu-Gi-Oh duelist. And that's about it. Oh, and you're apart of some Pinata world too."

"Okay, ignoring that last one, these are actually pretty decent. As much as I respect the tools that Joi uses to battle, and her strength, as she definitely is physically strong. Stronger than even me. I really wish I would have either had the choice of Kari or Mallow. Their cards or Pokemon would have been invaluable additions. Also, who is ChaotiKween?"

"Oh, that. You weren't here to know the context of that from the VR game challenge last season. Just know that you might see that name again if you last long enough. Oh, almost forgot for you Aomine. You're Lance, another Pokemon trainer."

"Okay? Am I supposed to jump for joy for that?" Aomine asked.

"If you want. I just forgot. Oh, and Frank."

"Who the hell is Frank?"

"I recognize him! He's a really good friend!" Lotte exclaimed. "And very nice too!"

"A nice friend that asked Lotte on a date." Akko said before making kissing sounds.

Lotte blushed before looking away from the screen a bit. "Well, y-yes he did. But, I had to turn him down."

"What!? You mean I'm a guy that turned down by you!?"

"Okay? I don't see the big deal. Calm down." Toxsa said.

"Of course you wouldn't see the big deal. The only thing you give a damn about is those games."

"Actually no. Do you know how much I'd love to have a girl that loves games all over me? That's co-op every day. I just don't think acting like that is warranted."

"Isn't being a good friend to someone as nice as her enough?" Weiss asked. "At least he doesn't read erotic magazines."

"Zip it snowflake. Okay, I gotta know. What the heck did I, er, Frank do, to make you turn me, him, down?"

"Nothing. I just felt, caught off guard. He asked me out on a date when I didn't even get to know him that well. I'm glad that he genuinely liked me, but I just thought it would feel to awkward to do that without really getting to know each other better first." Lotte explained.

"In other words, you want to start off as friends before seeking any type of romance with someone." Octavia concluded, causing the girl to nod. "That's really nothing to get upset over then. Aomine, you're overreacting to something that's actually a good thing in the long run. Even if she doesn't ever date Frank, that's still leagues better than instantly dating. Because at the very least, for Lotte, knowing that this is how she feels about relationships, there's less likely of a chance of disaster that way."

"Yeah. Emphasis on less likely. It could still happen. Not that I'm trying to discourage you." Morty added. Both seemingly had something behind those statements.

"I really think that's a good thing. At least you'll really get to bond with whoever it is." He added.

"Think? I know that's a good thing. Look, I wouldn't be with Kagami if I didn't get to understand the type of person he was first. Something I failed to do with Mamoru." Rei said, putting an arm around his shoulder as someone else joined in the call.

"Yeah. I definitely agree with that." Lotte said, slowly nodding as her blush notably never fully went away.

"Yeah, don't do what I did, which was make a robot version of my potential date to then later date because I lacked self-confidence to stay in the dating world. As pretty much the last shred of it got destroyed." Reagan said.

Hearing this caused Bobo to spit out his drink just from sheer surprise.

"Trust me Lotte, anyone's lucky to- wait, Reagan you what?" Doyle said, confused.

"Look," She sighs. "I thought it was a good idea at first. Until I realized it wasn't when he turned into a lazy bum that played video games all day and asked for repairs. Repairs that I wouldn't have to do if he would have stopped pulling his legs off raging. Well, he didn't take the break-up well because he built a replica of me that tried to kill and replace me and be with the real Bryan. After she destroyed the robot Bryan. Damn, I cannot believe how accurate to life both of them are. A bum turned psycho, and a psycho clone with full self-confidence."

"Wow. That's…" Riley said.

"Hold up, pause button. Run that by me again?" Toxsa said,

"Yeah, I've got that same reaction." Fiona said.

"No, seriously. Say it again I wasn't paying attention. I tuned out the minute you started talking about relationships in way too much detail."

"Yeah, me too. Hey Toxsa, shoot me a friend request. I wanna see what's on your game list." Todd said. "Or can that advanced tech even run old stuff?"

"Compatibility mode, duh. But I got you. Hold on a sec."

"So if you tuned out, why do you care now?"

"Heard the reactions. Thought it was interesting."

"Ahhhh. Makes sense."

"Look, just know that I'll never, ever, do something like that again. I have learned my lesson big time. Unfortunately it took a near-death experience from myself to do it but, you live and you learn. Literally." Reagan said.

"Good foy you!" Riley said.

"Eh, not really. Still currently single."

"Oh. Well, join the club."

"Yeah, Johnny-" Todd started before deciding to not say anything more.

"I what?" Johnny asked. "Don't get me involved in this. I don't got nothin' to do with this."

"Johnny's right! He's got nothing to do with this!" Todd said, quickly agreeing.

"You said it. I don't. But uh Reagan, sounds like you lack self-confidence. So, why not-"

"No. I said you're a pretty alright teammate, I didn't say you were dating material for me." Reagan said.

"What?"

"Oh. Was that, not what you were gonna say?"

"No. I was just gonna say for you to get out there and hit em with your looks. They'll come flockin' to ya. Smart and good-lookin' girls are some men's dreams. Heck, you're probably Carl's."

"Oh. Well, then, I really appreciate the advice. Thanks. Oh, hey Dwayne."

"Yeah, clearly I missed a lot." Dwayne said.

"Yeah. It went from who had the cooler other selves in different worlds to comic and superhero talk to romance therapy/advice." Sly said.

"As you yourself didn't say a word." Mayuzumi said.

"Didn't need to. That's what we call 'reading the room'. But I guess you do that all the time so you'd know. Like now. Or, most of this chat."

"I did it because I had nothing to add. There is no removing yourself from the conversation if you were never there in the first place."

"Touche."

"We're definitely over the usual episode runtime. Are we chopping this up?" Huey asked.

"Oh crap! I didn't even think about that!" Julie said, hands on her head.

"Yeah, me neither." Riley said.

"Yeah, that went over my head too." Dewey said.

"Because the girls were too invested in the romance to care, and Dewey was too invested in the exchanges between everyone to remember either. Oh and Huey was being too patient." Louie said.

"Good job sis. And you're supposed to be a host?" Todd said.

"Not gonna lie, I was invested too. But I kinda derailed things, so that's on me. How much time are we looking at Huey?" Heloise asked.

"I guess a couple more of these could do. So, about 3-5 minutes? And then, it's a good idea to shut it down." Huey answered.

"Cool. Anyone else want to know their stuff? At least the ones that I have on hand?"

"What's going on? I wasn't here for the question." Dwayme said.

"Heloise basically has a list of who some of us could have been if we were picked for the last challenge." Isagi said.

"Huh? Now that's interesting. I would take one of those questions but….. you guys were here longer than me so, knock yourselves out."

"Anything for me?" Zee asked.

"Nothing of note. Sorry. I actually did try to find some things for you because I was curious." Heloise said.

"Well that sucks. Still really think that last challenge was cool though. Honestly, all this is saying is that we gotta do it again." Zee said.

"Yeah, that needs to be ran back." Kagami said.

"Since you guys like it so much, I'll talk to Chris about it. Not saying he'll do it again, because he probably won't, but it can't hurt to try." Doyle said.

"Thanks. Appreciate the effort nonetheless."

"What did I get anyway? I have to know before I leave today, I'm sorry." Reagan said.

"Haven't seen most of these but I know they're pretty popular. Hot Tub Time Machine, Mean Girls and The Interview."

"Oh. Wow. Mean Girls? That's crazy."

"Anyone else? Last one."

"Me! Me!" Akko said frantically.

"Jotaro's the guy I'm curious about the most honestly. Really wish he was here." Hanamiya said.

"All in favor of Akko, raise your hand." Heloise said. Some people, Akko included, raised their hands.

"All in favor of Jotaro, raise your hand." More people raised their hands for Jotaro.

"How could a guy that's not here even win? Aww…" Akko said, slumping in disappointment. "Okay, who's he got? It better be good."

"Hit. Kagami can probably tell you who this guy is, because I don't have a clue. From the same world as Launch." Heloise said.

"Is that Super stuff? Other than Beerus and a few of the God stuff I don't really know too much about Super." Kagami said.

"What happened to being the Dragon Ball expert?" Rei teased.

"I know some stuff, not everything! I haven't finished everything on the original to get there yet. Once I finish that, I'll get to Super."

"So you're going to skip Z? Why?" Sena asked.

"I didn't skip Z. I finished it. Now I'm going back. Problem is, I haven't read it in a while to get around to finishing it. Basketball and other stuff's been eating at that time."

"Pain, Ganondorf, Ivan Bruel, Captain Cold, Nightwing, Deadshot, Iron Man, Zephyrus, The Fanatic, and a Guardian, you know, the Lightbearer guys." Heloise said. "He's got a lot. Way too many to list here."

"Ivan? Wow." Adrien commented.

"What the f*ck!?" Aomine said in disbelief. "So you mean to tell me this dude gets all of this bada*s s*it? All of it?! And he gets Midorima and Sebastian too? I'm out. Peace." He left the chat.

"Okay, I think that's a perfect time to end it." Huey said. "This is Huey,"

"This is Riley,"

"Julie,"

"And Dewey, signing off! See you all on the next episode!"

(After recording stops)

"That is insane. All of that? I'm just glad to be a speedster and two great fighters." Dewey commented as they looked at their notes on the call when everyone left.

"I know right? Although, I'm kinda sad I couldn't get anything for me. But, that's what you get when you're the interviewer." Julie added.

"What I want to know is, why'd Huey cut it short so suddenly?" Riley asked.

"Yeah. What was that about?" Dewey asked.

"Just thought that would be a pretty fitting reaction. Because I was shocked too." Huey said.

"Ohhhhh. Makes sense."

"Well, we it shouldn't bee too much of an issue. We'll just call it an extended episode or bonus footage." Huey said.

"Works for me." Julie said.

Eventually, they said their goodbyes and all left. Although the second they left, Eijun joined.

"Huh. Guess I'm the first one here!" Eijun said before beaming with pride. "Take that Furuya!" He then rubbed his hands together, grinning mischievously. "I can't wait to call out Miyuki for being late! This'll be revenge for all the times he does it to me at practice!"

But several minutes passed and no one joined.

"Huh. Guess I'm too early. Eh, they'll be here sooner or later. I'll come back then."

But when he left, the session ended and the room closed. So when he came back, he couldn't find the room anymore.

"I missed it!" He put his hands on the top of his head in agony. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"Stop yelling you idiot!" One of his roommates, Kuramochi Yoichi said from a distance as Eijun was outside.

A/N: And that's Episode 4! I thought about waiting to release this until the TMNT episode's done, but I decided to just go ahead and upload this one now. See you on the next episode!
