[Phibrizzo looks highly amused by the three animatronic trolls Tony Stark built and had delivered to the front door of the Uzushio. He's currently perched on the head of one of the three of them with a little grin on his face. He still doesn't know who the anonymous texter was, but he's impressed enough by the end results.]

Best trolling ever.

[He even applauds. That took a fair amount of dedication to follow through with it.]

Thank you, mystery person! They've been a great conversation piece. Getting them inside and setting up a Halloween display in the main lobby took some work, but I like them.

[... what the hell is he even

sounding more bewildered than anything:] Those are fucking monstrosities.

[brat_from_hell]

But that makes them perfect for Halloween decorations, doesn't it?

[video]

[12second_orz]

Well, yes... but how the hell did you even get them? Don't tell me you paid for them.

I got a text message asking if I boned the Hulk, and I said no and that I was underage. Then I got asked how I'd like to be trolled and I said with trolls on my front lawn...then these arrived two weeks later.

... I think I need a cigarette.

[There's a long, long pause while he finds his smokes and a lighter and takes a deep drag, massaging his temple slightly.]

So. Our mysterious network messenger was kind enough to make a hideous donation to you. I'm not sure whether or not I'd be pleased or insulted in your position.

It certainly did take some work. I must say, they are rather troll like, though a bit smaller then an actual troll.

I'm pretty impressed with how life-like they are. It's amazing what you can do with robots these days.

Video I totally forgot, sorry sis.

[that_is_asecret]

I met a scientist who specialized in robotics. I think he said his name was Willy.

[brat_from_hell]

Hmm...I wonder how much he'd want to get paid for some work if we want another holiday display.

[that_is_asecret]

I'm not sure, though I don't imagine overly much, considering he isn't well known.

[bondsoflove]

[Disgruntled.]

Are these going to get in the way of security?

[brat_from_hell]

It shouldn't be a problem. They're just a display, and they're too big and heavy for most people to move.

[bondsoflove]

If someone tries to attack me with an animatronic troll, I want a bonus.

[brat_from_hell]

Do you really think there's a chance of that happening?

[bondsoflove]

Here?

[Where the food spontaneously turns into candy, genders get swapped overnight, and turkeys explode and reanimate?]

Yes.

[bratziska]

If you consider "what in the world is wrong with you" a good conversation starter, then I suppose you're right.

[Video]

[brat_from_hell]

You don't think they're a good Halloween display? I thought Halloween was supposed to be about monsters and ghosts and things that scare people.

[Video]

[bratziska]

... Well, as long as you don't keep them past October.

[Video]

[brat_from_hell]

I was going to put them in storage after that. For now, though, I think they're a great Halloween display.

[Video]

[bratziska]

And if anyone does complain, don't say you weren't warned.

[video]

[capax_infiniti]

So it seems it's that time of the year already... a charming touch.

[video]

[brat_from_hell]

It seems to be going over well enough with the guests. Of course, I'm not really sure what we'll do with them after Halloween. I'm sure we can find storage somewhere, though.

You could always break them down into their base components and attempt to reconstruct them as something else...

[brat_from_hell]

I'm not really good at making machines and things like that...but I think they could be transformed into golems.

[capax_infiniti]

I was more referring to perhaps something suitably seasonable. Elves for Christmas, perhaps some sort of animals for other times of the year... resculpting stone shouldn't be to difficult of a task, especially with your clientele.
