I guess my comfort zone is "eccentric side character."

"It's difficult to describe." He replied, taking the talisman back and replacing it inside his armor. "It's not something I can pinpoint. It's like...feeling the entire universe tilt because a great weight has been dropped on it. The feeling isn't as important as what invariably follows. The first time I felt this I was watching a comet fall from the sky. The second time was shortly before separate worlds began tangling up into one another. Not like here, uncontrollably. Both incidents sparked what could charitable be called wars, in reality little more than chaotic free for alls leaving behind only the most powerful of those involved. Trust me on this, soon you won't have to look for it. It will be everywhere. No one will be able to get away."

His eyes glanced down at the pocket where the metal icon had been placed. "If your master has any grand designs for this world I'd caution them to hold those plans in reserve until this is all over. The chaos might present an enticing opportunity, but these maelstroms are no place for any sort of scheme. I've watched three valiant demon lords be torn to pieces trying, with a forth who I can't imagine fared much better after my death, along with a clan of very persistent ghosts."
The noble potato chip of RP. Good for throwing together a character concept and having a little fun without taking things all that seriously.

Firebrand ripped his beak from where Viral had planted it in the dirt, rubbing his jaw. He hadn't expected that. Well, that wasn't entirely accurate. He'd expected Viral to make a move for him once his back was turned, but he hadn't thought even that quick little bugger would be able to clear the distance in so short a time.

He looked over to the building the pompous rat had made it too. He took stock of the situation, looked around at the crumbling building and the piles of corpses, and decided that the rat could have this rathole. The object of Firebrands ire had flown the coop already, along with that strange blue haired frenemy of his. He didn't know when those two had started working together, but it was a question for a later day. What was on his mind was the confirmation of the feeling he'd gotten when the sky had darkened. There was nothing left to fight for here. Besides which, he didn't want to deal with that spell.

He turned to leave, then stopped and looked back at the rat. His spell was already building up like a title wave about to break. Then his eyes turned downward, toward the area reveled by the giant armors oh so helpful removal. He thought he saw something among the dust and rubble, a glint from the sunlight that still poured from the hole in the clouds. He made his way over to it, an idea forming in his head.




"Clever human, trying to walk off with my talisman." Firebrand said casually as as the beating of his wings caught him up to Damien. The demon plopped down next to him, the crude green bag thrown over his back that looked to have been looted off a Alliance soldier jangling faintly as he did so, and walked next to him. "Not that I blame you. You never know when you might need the fire power. After all, the rat was right. I felt it when it happened. Something changed. It's not a feeling you forget."

"They were there, but I'm the one who laid 'em up against the wall." Danny said proudly, before turning to Pyro. "I can keep up, but I'm gonna need to grab my car so it doesn't get towed. I'll follow you, don't worry." With that he ran toward the edge and took a short hop off a tall building.

There wasn't an earth shattering crash of pavement that heralded his landing, but there was a loud clap as his shoes met the road and a startled yelp from the two startled EMTs who almost dropped the prone citizen they were loading into the back of their ambulance. Danny waited for the impact to shake out of his knees before giving them a friendly wave. "Yo." He said, walking to where he'd put his car. "Keep up the good work." He once again hefted the vehicle up onto his shoulder, thinking he should really ask that guy where the cheapest gas station was since he knew so much about the city. He truged past the EMTs, who to their credit seemed to recover much more quickly than a lot of people meeting Danny for the first time. "This is mine." He said, pointing to the car so that there would be no misunderstandings.

He made his way across the street to the opposite sidewalk whee he'd be more visible, stopping there and waving up at the crew still gathered on top, before swatting his hand forward in a "go on" gesture.
You could use semaphore towers the way Discworld does to make all its computer programming and internet jokes.
Wait, I thought of a better example that you're never going to believe.

Shrek. What you're asking for is Shrek. Specifically Shrek 2, but there were elements of it in the first movie as well.
Watch A Knight's Tale. It's a really love it or hate it film and you'll realize whether you love it or hate it in the very first scene as you watch a bunch of medieval peasants at a joust pound out the beat to Queen's We Will Rock You
You'd be surprised how much damage you can do with cooking and cleaning in SS13.
v2's blade was in his hand literally the moment the stranger began to appear, his eyes flicking wildly around the room as his electronic brain absorbed and pieced together all available data. The world moved in slow motion for him as he took everything in. Of particular note was Tocsax's reaction. No outright hostility or panic showed on his face. He seemed more annoyed than anything by the appearance of the intruder. Something unexpected, but not dire. He was not taking an aggressive posture.

v2 had only barely begun to swing when his arm stopped suddenly, like a video being paused. There were most likely not a Seeker of Darkness. The blade vanished from his palm. "Apologies." he said to the newcomer as his perception slowed down and time resumed its normal flow.
I'll be on the lookout for it.
