[20:45:41] [+BigFinale] Eggman found a certain joy in designing command rooms. This one was round, tall, and thin, viewscreens running up and down its walls. In the very center of the room there was a column spanning bottom to top. The Doctor's chair/desktop attached to the column, mechanisms allowing it to spin around to any section of the room, or rise/lower on command.
[20:45:53] [+BigFinale] Robotnik pressed his fingers together as he stared at the most recent thing to pique his interest - which was to say it had distracted him from his important, elaborate revenge schemes and INGENIOUS themed robots that surely would do better than his last fifty thousand themed robots.
[20:46:03] [+BigFinale] The distraction was, in fact, the event in Capitol City, which the news outlets were reaching to find flashy, public panic-inducing names for - 'Crimson Terror', 'City Under Lockdown', that kind of thing. It almost made Eggman wonder if he shouldn't take lessons in fear-mongering from these people.
[20:46:13] [+BigFinale] Regardless of that, he had to admit he was deeply curious about just what'd happened. Why, it could be some strange natural phenomena that he could take advantage of! That was the optimistic conclusion. The far more likely truth of the matter was that this was the action of some upstart on the field trying to make a name for themselves.
[20:46:25] [+BigFinale] Well, he couldn't have that. No one was allowed to terrorize GUN into submission but him. At least the Eggman Empire had a clear and stated goal, did what it did for good reasons, this just looked to be for the sake of doing it and upsetting the peace. No, it couldn't be abided.
[20:46:41] [+BigFinale] The Doctor was so deep in thought that he didn't even notice the entrance to the chamber, leading onto a small walkway that connected to the column precisely halfway from the top and bottom, slide open below him.
[20:50:19] [Asterisk] * And of course, who would enter but the small, bald and needle-nosed worm (actually overlander) that happens to share Eggman's gene pool? * "Reveling in another of your command rooms again, Doctor?"
[20:50:22] ::: nick: (Asterisk) is now known as (Snively)
[20:53:23] [+BigFinale] "Hmm? Oh. Nephew." Eggman tapped a button, and the chair spiralled down to the 'landing platform', coming even with it and spinning around so he could face the little metaphorical weasel. "Making smart remarks as usual, I see." He folded his hands together. "No, just looking into this Capitol City business they're all worked up over."
[20:53:41] [+BigFinale] "Perhaps you'd like to go investigate it for me? Without a safety suit?"
[20:56:31] [Snively] "..." * Snively grumbles. * .o0(Classy as usual, I see.)
[20:58:00] [+BigFinale] He clapped his palms together, rubbing them together. "So, give me some good news, Snively. Is everything in order?"
