Timeline of Events (Revamp)

This is a faithful attempt at recreating the original timeline of events page. This version is recommended for a better reading experience, and although there's nothing stopping you from checking out the original page, it is not suggested simply due to the fact that it was written by a literal 12 year old (source: me).

**Delirium's Great Corruption** (abbr. **DGC**) was a Discord RP done by the sect that once dwelled this wiki, having started in late 2017 and ending in c. early/mid-2018 in the server known as **Land of Crime** (abbr. **LoC**/**LOC**). It was the first attempt at tackling an RP of such scale, acting as both an experiment and an improvement effort in the literary sense. Upon completion, most participants initially held very positive opinions on the RP, but nowadays they display mixed thoughts, citing nostalgia and the innocent fun that was had as *good* memories, and the inherently shitty and undeveloped RPing style that was then used, as well as the inherently volatile OOC circumstances, as *bad* ones. Regardless of opinion, it is acknowledged to be a thing of the past and served as a stepping stone for a good number of LOC members to become better writers and, more importantly, human beings.

From an IRP standpoint, the RP itself is since long gone and no feasible records of it's events exist outside of the aforementioned 2018 draft, so most of what will be displayed on this page is a retelling of the known story with some additional pieces of info that weren't previously disclosed, either out of forgetfulness or negligence.

## Pre-GC/Prologue

Before Delirium was a physical entity, it was a metaphor. It represented Isaac's inner struggles and the demons that would haunt him. It sought to consume him, not literally, but to drive him over the edge and break his mind, in hopes of becoming the embodiment of his sanity (or lack thereof). Yet, Isaac wouldn't budge. Despite his doubts, he stood his ground and continued to live as normally as was possible given his circumstances. As manageable as this lifestyle was, this wouldn't last. It couldn't last.

As Delirium was nothing but the personification of Isaac's insanity, it slowly grew more autonomous. It grew its own body and mind, established it's own goals and objectives, but it still depended on Isaac. If Isaac were to die, it'd die with him. As independent as it got, it couldn't change the fact that it was one boy's insanity. One day, Delirium completely separated itself from Isaac, fully devoted to it's quest to consume, for it had set its sights on a far grander target- existence itself. It wasn't long after until a strange purple portal sucked it in and, for a split second, dropped it off right before the legendary Nuclear Throne. It was thanks to it's influence that Delirium could break out into the physical world, while at the same time, it greatly destabilized the Throne. But as fast as it arrived, it was sent elsewhere, for that was just the start of a severe portal anomaly, one which would directly cause the unfortunate events that would follow.

## Sea Kingdom Arc

A portal would open up somewhere in the Sea Kingdom, stranding Delirium on a deserted island. Not wasting one second, it started consuming everything in sight, starting with the local flora and fauna, and not long after it became the island itself. After hearing rumors of ships and sailors consistently disappearing in an unnamed archipelago, Wadanohara and her familiars set out to investigate what is causing the disturbances. Halfway through the archipelago, they gradually stop seeing islands, as a white, mucilaginous substance becomes more prominent, as patches and blobs of it appear, floating and writhing like worms in the middle of the ocean. They reach the unanimous conclusion that while the phenomenon is a matter of great concern, they cannot do anything to effectively counteract it or prevent it from spreading due to the unknown nature of the white substance. Being dangerously close to one of the goo islands, they decide to head back and report on their discoveries in due time.

Elsewhere in the undersea wilderness, another portal spits out Fish and Yung Venuz, whose journey to seek out the Nuclear Throne is thwarted by the ongoing portal anomaly. It's there where Delirium's efforts are really put into perspective: all the ocean life before them appears to be melty in nature, like popsicles left outside the fridge. The duo is forced to gun and slash through the infected marine wildlife, pressing onward in their search for the Throne despite everything.

As Wada and co. are making their way back, they're stopped by unusual looking guards who end up attacking them after Memoca points out that they don't look normal. A battle ensues between Wadanohara and her familiars and Delirium and his proxies, who start to gain the upper hand, but the tides turn in Wada's favor after Fish and Y.V show up, opting to assist the witch on the grounds of the "enemy of my enemy" philosophy. Just when it starts to look like they're gaining leverage, the ground shakes and ripples are felt throughout the water— in a twist of fate, the Throne itself shows up, forcing the gang to fight with everything they've got. As the Throne progressively suffers more and more damage, it becomes evident that it's not the real deal they're fighting, for it's showing the same symptoms as the other glorified enemies, instead, for it's turns out to be Delirium itself, who assumed the likeness of the Throne in hopes of intimidating the witch and her friends just enough to tip the battle into it's favor again. Instead, it brought the wasteland duo to believe they're fighting a glorified version of the Throne itself, which results in the two stepping up the ante while Wada and her familiars escape via Momecha.

Sometime later, Dolphi decides to try and ease her nerves by taking a stroll through town and around. As she's walking through the outskirts, Delirium ambushes her and takes her captive, but she struggled just audibly enough for Memoca to go looking for her. Unfortunately though, Memoca herself is taken captive as well. It's only after Fukami shows up and threatens Delirium with its life that the amorphous blob decides to toy with the familiars. It offers Fukami a deal— the two will have a battle to the death, and the winner decides on the others' fates. Without missing a beat, Fukami accepts, but on the condition that there be a 6 hour grace period, more than enough time for everyone to evacuate. Delirium agrees, and lets the two familiars go, disappearing into the shadows as he taunts Fukami and tells him to enjoy his last hours alive.

After saying their goodbyes and reluctantly boarding their ship, Wadanohara, Memoca and Dolphi depart, and the rest of the Sea Kingdom's inhabitants follow not long after. Fukami arrives in the once bustling ghost town in the center of the kingdom, and dreadfully awaits for his opponent to show up. Not much passes before Delirium reveals himself, angering the familiar by sharing one piece of unfortunate information: Memoca and Dolphi have been unknowingly infected. Enraged, Fukami engages Delirium in a duel, but the latter skillfully evades all of the former's hits, lethal or otherwise. After physically wearing him out, Delirium disses the octopus' fighting prowess before effortlessly striking him down and leaving him to die.

In the moments that follow, Dolphi walks into the ship's cabin to retrieve something from her nightstand, but she stops in her tracks after seeing Memoca standing in the middle of the room with her back turned towards her. She musters the courage to approach her, asking her if everything is alright, only for the seagull to reveal that her face is melted and goopy, dropping dead onto the ground moments later. A petrified Dolphi stares at Memoca's melting body in horror as Wadanohara enters the cabin to investigate the commotion. She's equally as shocked as Dolphi, and the moment they make eye contact, Delirium solidifies in her head, killing the dolphin instantly. A heartbroken Wadanohara changes the course of her ship and departs from the rest of the fleeing Sea Kingdom residents, disappearing over the horizon.

Elsewhere, Samekichi is seen lamenting the deaths of the familiars and Wadanohara's disappearance, convinced that if he had intervened he may've been able to save them, unaware of the morbid truth that in not involving himself he indirectly saved his own life. Right as he's about to move on and re-join the rest of the fleet, a portal opens up, sucking him in and taking him to an entirely different universe.

## Gray World Arc

Samekichi wakes up in a flower patch, confused about his whereabouts. He gets up and starts following a dirt path, hoping to find a way back to his ship, but unbeknownst to him, something's watching. A little ways ahead, he bumps into Yosafire, an innocuous demon girl who's knowledgeable about all things botany. Upon meeting her, he starts to feel a sudden rush of paranoia, and on impulse he critically wounds her with a sword.

Upon the realization of what he's done, he takes her back to the Gray Village and, with the help of her friend Macarona, helps heal her back to full health. After Yosa regains consciousness, Samekichi explains his situation and the three come to the conclusion that he may not be from this world, and that the portal somehow carried him across dimensions. In a moment of rather comedic timing, Pilot enters the house at random and asks everyone present if they know where he is. The realization slowly sets in: the portal anomaly is starting to pick up the pace. They inform him of everything that's happened so far, and in response Pilot tells Samekichi that despite his scary appearance, he looks like an otherwise trustworthy guy for patching Yosafire up (as he is blissfully unaware of the circumstances of her wounding). Portals start opening en masse, and the gang runs outside just in time for new faces to show up: Robot, Plant, Lil' Hunter and a returning Fish. Another notable newcomer is Glasses, who observes the situation "from a safe distance". The newcomers aren't the only ones arriving into the Gray World though, as Delirium follows suit not long after.

Fish and Lil' Hunter decide to stick with Samekichi and co., while Plant goes into a blind, feral fury and starts whacking the goop with a shovel. This backfires, for the goop takes the shovel out of it's hands and whacks Plant right over the noggin, knocking it out before Delirium completely envelops and glorifies it. The gang, along with some other demons and angels who managed to escape the initial chaos, head towards Blancblack Castle. On their way there, they meet another newcomer, Klaymen, who is quick to believe their claims of a gelatinous flood of goop coming to kill them all. Once everyone made it inside, they work together to barricade all entrances, which proves to be fatal for Glasses, who just now decided that he should make his presence known to the others. Realizing the front door can't be opened, he scurries to try and find another entrance, but before he can do that he is killed and glorified by the arriving Delirium.

It successfully breaches all the Castle's defenses, and the gang is forced to run up to the rooftop. By this point, they start to realize that Delirium is slowly consuming the structure itself. Before they can do anything though, another portal opens up and sucks Macarona in, much to Yosafire's shock. There isn't much time left to grieve, as Delirium manages to loosen the Castle's structure thanks to it's weight, and within moments the entirety of Blancblack is reduced to a pile of bricks and debris. The survivors are just about to celebrate, before a gigantic portal opens up before them and sucks them all in. The numerous angels and demons that were left behind fought the remainder of Delirium's forces present in the Gray World, and their fates remain unknown.

## Mogeko Castle Arc

Immediately upon leaving the portal, the gang finds themselves standing before a castle. Waiting for them is Macarona, who's alive and well. With her happen to be Rawberry, another one of Yosa's friends, and Q, a silent, mysterious and enigmatic man who fell victim to the still-raging portal anomaly. While the group is chatting amongst themselves, half of the group who decided to enter the castle suddenly find themselves trapped after the front doors shut by themselves. By the time they're able to break into the castle, the rest of the group is gone. They walk through the punctilious rooms for several minutes, and eventually they run into the others, regrouping in a hallway junction. Their break is a short one though, because not long after they're reunited, Delirium makes it's presence known, forcing them into another game of cat and mouse.

Not long into the chase, they're met with an unsuspecting stairwell. Having no way but forward, they take it, but it turns out to be impossibly long— they continue to run up the flight of stairs for what seems like an hour, never once stopping to catch a breather or look behind them. By the time they've reached the top of the staircase, they're met with a fork in the road. Macarona unwittingly takes a wrong turn under the conviction that the others would follow her, but by the time she realized it was too late to turn back, Delirium had already finished climbing the stairs. The group is forced to leave her behind, as they advance deeper into the castle. All by herself, she presses forward, holding onto the panicked delusion that she's gonna meet up with the others near another junction. Having been one of the quickest in the group, at first it seems like she's outrunning Delirium with ease, but she snaps back to reality quite quickly once she realizes she has hit a dead end. She tries reasoning with the entity, who humors her pleas for a few moments to successfully instill a false sense of hope in her. Right as she breathes a sigh of relief, Delirium envelops the hallway, glorifying Macarona nigh-instantly.

The rest of the gang finds shelter in a spacious storage room, barricading the main entrance with shelves and boxes. Yosafire proclaims her worry for Macarona to Rawberry, who reassures her as well as you'd expect from a glutton. It's there that Robot reveals that he was storing weapons within himself all along, something the rest of the group reprimand him for. He shares his plan: get out of the castle and blow it to smithereens. Despite initial objections, everyone comes to a mutual agreement once Delirium breaks into the room, sending various glorified enemies at them, including sea fauna, angels and demons, and Macarona, whose left arm turned into a chainsaw at will, thanks to the properties of the goo. Everyone does their best to protect Robot, who's essentially become the payload in need of escorting, as the battle rages on. Yosa and Rawberry confront the glorified Macarona, and after a close duel with her, 'kill' her by crushing her head with a box, something they admitted they felt guilt over. The group successfully repels Delirium's attack, and he, along with all of his minions (dead or alive), retreats.

Deciding there's nowhere but forward, the gang advances into the castle, and it's not long after the battle until they come across the throne room, with King mogeko in it. He delivers a dread-inducing speech, claiming the prophesied end times have fallen upon them and referring to Delirium's otherworldly origins. Fish asks him if there's any way to defeat the monster, or otherwise reverse the damage it caused. King mogeko affirms the question, but before he can provide a concrete answer, he's assassinated by Macarona, who ended up surviving the box to the head. Delirium reveals himself yet again, and the gang is forced to split up into two groups: Q, Yosafire and Rawberry end up taking a door that leads them to a long series of looping hallways with doors on each side, all the while they were being pursued by Macarona and lesser glorified critters, while Fish, Robot, Samekichi, Pilot, Klaymen and Lil' Hunter backtrack all the way back to the entrance of the castle, being chased by Delirium itself who was nothing short of pissed.

As they're making their way out, a glorified Plant catches up to Lil' Hunter and tackles him to the ground, the latter screaming in agony as Delirium consumes him alive. Seeing as they can do nothing to help now, the rest of the gang merely glances back at him as he's being glorified. After the rest of Fish and co. make it out relatively safely, Delirium heads back into the castle in hopes of taking out whoever's left inside. Once the gang was a safe distance away from the castle, they start preparing for the demolition, arming themselves with super bazookas while Robot reserved the big kahuna for himself: a loaded nuke launcher.

Meanwhile, in an ironic twist of fate, Q realizes he and his group have made the same mistake as Macarona, they were running towards a dead end. Q circumvents this issue entirely though, punching the wall before them with enough force to completely obliterate it and forming a makeshift escape route. Before he can jump out to safety though, he notices Delirium has already caught Rawberry, while Macarona was trying to pull Yosa into the goo as well. He runs back to help Yosafire, striking Macarona with an overhead hard enough for Yosa to break free of her grip, but that would inadvertently doom him as Delirium would seize the opportunity and slowly start enveloping him as well. As a final act of comradeship, Q punches Yosafire hard enough to send her flying through the giant hole in the wall, and in what can only be described as sheer luck, she lands right by the gang's feet, just in time for the big spectacle. The super bazookas fire a volley of rockets in unison, and all of them hit the castle, which slowly began to collapse, before it was completely leveled by the nuke fired by Robot.

A distraught Yosafire sulks over the loss of four of her friends, but Robot coldly tells her that there's no use crying over spilt milk and that there's nowhere but forward. The others shun the machine and his choice of words, and console Yosafire by assuring her that Q's death wasn't in vain and that he would be avenged. After a moment of silence, she promises to avenge not just Q, but everyone who has perished by Delirium's hand, before reverting to her cheerful self. The gang then decides to continue their journey, wandering through the forest surrounding the castle for some time before another portal opens up and sucks them in, taking them elsewhere.

## Pitch Black World Arc

I'll be frank: I remember little to nothing that happened here and neither does anyone else I came into contact with regarding this arc, so I'll condense it into everything that I do remember, tl;dr:

* The gang shows up in the Pitch Black World, only to find the streets in utter chaos as it's denizens desperately try to fight off Delirium and his forces.
* Yagi and Jork join the gang.
* The gang makes their way into Satanick's castle.
* The gang is confronted by a glorified Q, who they're forced to put down, albeit briefly.
* Fish leaves the gang, claiming he has unfinished business to attend to.
* Delirium boss fight after which he retreats again.
* Moments later, a portal opens up and transports the gang into the Desert, kickstarting the Wasteland Arc.

## Wasteland Arc

Moments after leaving the portal, Robot recognizes the area they've been brought to, the campfire. In that moment he realizes what Fish's intentions are, and as if right on cue, the amphibian shows up, along with Rebel, another wasteland dweller and acquaintance. He shares his plan with everyone: set out into the wasteland, hunt down the Nuclear Throne and stop the portal anomaly for good. Everyone is onboard with the idea, although Pilot questions how they were gonna deal with Delirium once the Throne's dealt with. Fish assures him that they'll figure something out in due time, which seems to be enough incentive for Pilot to agree on the idea as well.

The gang starts their journey off in the desert, an irradiated stretch of land once inhabited by exclusively bandits, maggots and overgrown scorpions, now bustling with all kinds of enemies from not just different areas, but different universes as well. They easily gun and run through the various cannon fodder whilst scavenging for better equipment on their way to the sewers. As the sun starts to set, they finally find an entrance to the groundworks of the past in the form of a giant pipe, but their way is blocked by none other than Big Bandit and his gang, who refuses to let them past, prompting a massive shootout between the two parties. Amidst all the chaos, Yagi finds a functional triple machinegun, substituting it for his tommygun. While his bulky build initially proved to be capable of enduring one person's stream of bullets, Big Bandit would eventually meet his demise after all of his goons were taken out and he was the last enemy left standing, falling to the gang's combined focus fire, excluding Rebel, who merely looked away as Big Bandit received the killing blow. They waste no time, crawling into the pipe and entering the sewers.

The sewers prove to be a complicated maze infested with mutant rats, frogs, alligators and other monstrosities from worlds unknown, negating FIsh's plans to cut right into the Frozen City and forcing them to take a detour that leads them into the Scrapyard. Filled to the brim with ravens with SMGs and robot snipers, amongst other things, the Scrapyard proves to be a relatively challenging strip of land to navigate through. Fire hazards and abandoned cars litter the area, forcing the gang to pick their fights carefully and shoot only when necessary. Pesky assassins who feign their deaths are another problem added to the equation, their rusty pipes dealing immense blunt force trauma capable of fatally injuring anyone not paying attention. Through the bolts and feathers, they eventually run into the big dog of the scrapyard: Big Dog. Initially asleep, he eventually woke up after all the commotion around him started being annoying, firing an entrée of danmaku and slow-moving anti-tank missiles. The numerous snipers shooting at the gang throughout the fight prove to be an issue as well, for exposing themselves meant three rifles trained at them instantly. Using cars and cover to their advantage, they're eventually able to irreparably damage Big Dog, who ends up exploding from all the bullets endured. Said explosion not only takes out the snipers who were pestering the gang, but it also reveals an entrance to a purple cave with orange crystals— the Crystal Caves.

They waste no time running inside, taking out crystal spiders and floating, laser-shooting crystals, along with the occasional cocooned alligator. After a lengthy hike consisting of exterminating the crystal pests, they stumble upon the cave exit, which takes them to the tundra that is the Frozen City. Ape-like robots, wolf-like robots, tripod robots that shoot high-caliber bullets at an insane speed, they all plague the frozen husk of what used to be a developed metropolis. The catch here isn't that there's one big protector watching over the area, it's the fact that there isn't. Nothing can endure the harsh, never-ending blizzards for too long, be it man or machine. The sheer size of the city turns out to be a challenge, and for every robot slain, a new one appears to take it's place. At one point though, they see a building that stands out from the others: they found the Labs. After breaking in, they're greeted by a bunch of freaks and the scientists (referred to as necromancers) that created them, as well as robotic turrets. The gang easily mows through them, and eventually reaches a scientist manning what's essentially a rave robot, the Technomancer. He fights with wit, summoning a bunch of turrets and reviving fallen necromancers to come to his aid, but being a stationary target made him much easier to beat than the previous bosses. Yelling maniacally as he's defeated, the rave robot explodes and reveals what the Technomancer was guarding: an experimental teleporter. Unaware of how to use it, Rebel decides to drag the still-living scientist out of the robot and threatens him into telling them how to use it. Before he can even speak up though, Robot easily starts operating it, starting it up and setting the location to the Palace, the Throne's rough location. Dumbfounded, Rebel forgets she's dragging Technomancer along, bringing him along with the rest of the gang.

The Palace is filled with radiation guardians and IDPD units desperately trying to stop the gang from reaching the Throne, but despite their best efforts, they're unable to stop them, and soon after the gang would find themselves standing before the Throne. Upon shooting the skeleton sitting on it, the ground starts to rumble, and Fish warns the others to move away from the red carpet. Yagi insists on denying any danger they may be in, convinced that the catch to defeating it are the surrounding generators. Just as he turns to face the Throne, he's incinerated by the large cannon in the center within seconds. The gang's grief is short, for they quickly substitute it with a mixture of anger and hope; there was no backing out now. The Throne proved to be a resilient opponent, from blasts of radiation the size of a missile to gigantic orbs that dwarfed school buses, with the dreaded rad-cannon as the cherry on top. Those with melee weapons, notably Jork with his shovel, helped deflect the orbs— which seemed to drop ammunition and health kits. The further they were pushed back, the more guardians woke up from their statues to protect the Throne, but stragglers like Pilot and Klaymen focused on keeping them away from the rest of the group while they shot at the head honcho. It was a foolproof plan, and through teamwork and cooperation, the Throne started to emit smoke, making all kinds of mechanical noise. Within minutes, it completely broke down, exploding into bits of rocks and rads, and the moment it did, all the guardians left standing disintegrated into radioactive dust as well, with the four generators powering off. The portal anomaly was officially over.

They question the effectiveness of their efforts when yet another portal opens before them— but as it turns out, it wasn't one caused by the Throne, instead, it was manually activated. From the portal exits an older version of Fish, who congratulates the gang on their achievement of reaching the Throne. He's initially suspected to be Delirium in disguise, but he rebuts their claims with an offer: he can take them to back where it all started, something the gang agrees to. He warns them of the dangers of traveling back in time, citing the destruction of the current timeline as a possibility among other things. Despite this, they press forward, insistent on taking Delirium out. Fish B commends their determination, and as promised, opens a discolored portal which is supposedly capable of transcending both time and space. The gang jumps in, ready to end their misadventure once and for all.

## Island Raid Arc/Finale

The gang ends up back in the Sea Kingdom, and not long after exiting the portal, Samekichi reunites with Wadanohara, who was thought to be dead by now. He tells her that he missed her very much, but warns her to run away as he has unfinished business to attend to. She refuses however, claiming she'll help fight to avenge her friends. Samekichi doesn't have much time to talk her out of it though, as Delirium makes it's presence known shortly thereafter, attacking the gang. The great white is particularly aggressive in his efforts against the entity, attacking it relentlessly to seemingly no avail. The blob knocks him down, ready to integrate him into its ranks, before it's suddenly stopped by the fallen angel, Azazel, who defeats Delirium with ease, angering it and forcing it to retreat. Mistaking Azazel for another enemy, they engage in combat against him, but not long into the fight he's revealed to be Isaac. Scared, the boy starts runs away, which incentivizes Delirium to attack once more. The gang tries going after Isaac, but they're stopped by their glorified friends, including Plant, Macarona, Lil' Hunter, and Q, who seem to be stronger than ever. Fish is confused on how the victims carried over between universes, but Delirium claims they never traveled through time, merely space. An enraged Isaac returns to the battlefield, snapping at Delirium in an attempt to put an end to it's campaign of terror, but this time Delirium retaliates, sending both Isaac and Yosafire flying, knocking both out while hurting the rest of the gang in one fell swoop. Klaymen and Samekichi help carry Isaac and Yosa, retreating somewhere safe along with the others.

They settle on Wadanohara's ship, and some time passes until the two have woken up again, but once they have, Fish proposes a honorable last stand. A fight to the death. Either they die as heroes, or they stop the monster that caused endless pain and suffering throughout universes. Everyone agrees, some eagerly and some more reluctantly. As what they thought to be a final act of friendship, they decide to reintroduce themselves.

Isaac, Wadanohara, Fish, Samekichi, Yosafire, Robot, Klaymen, Jork, Rebel. And Technomancer.

They embolden and encourage one another, and after a well-deserved break, decide that it's time. Before they can do anything, they're suddenly teleported into space by a sentient Thiima battleship, Azure Nightmare, who has been closely monitoring the gang's journey from start to finish. They tell the gang how they're impressed by the feats they've accomplished without outside assistance and inform them where and how they can stop Delirium: the island in the archipelago that Delirium initially conquered, it was supposedly where he was in his most vulnerable state. They thank the battleship, who bids them farewell and teleports them back onto the ship. With the help of this new information, they set the course to the unnamed island, the place where it all started.

Upon arrival, they notice the island is completely surrounded by A.I-powered, fish-themed battleships, which are seemingly there to act as a failsafe in case the gang isn't able to take Delirium out. They dock just off the shore, and the moment they step foot on the island, they're met with glorified sea fauna, bandits, angels and demons, mogekos and a plethora of enemies they've fought up until now. The battle is a long and cruel one, for Delirium itself remains surrounded by the glorified versions of those it has killed up until that point, who it sends into the battle as distractions. In order to return to his personal hell and face off against Delirium, Isaac purposely lets himself get grabbed by Delirium, but for the plan to work, Pilot, Samekichi and Klaymen have to directly help him get in, both by damaging the blob and pushing Isaac further. All three are glorified as Delirium completely absorbs Isaac, who is oblivious of his impending doom. In the midst of it all, Wadanohara is speared through the heart by Delirium, who curses her out and says it should've done this long ago. Having witnessed this, Yosafire realizes Delirium's intentions and narrowly escapes a similar fate. Meanwhile, inside Delirium, Isaac is forced to face his demons, but with a newfound hope in his heart, he's able to defeat them all, coming to terms with himself and greatly weakening Delirium, forcing him to directly confront Isaac inside his mind, but not before he imprisons Fish, Robot and Rebel. Yosa, Technomancer and Jork try to defend themselves to the best of their capabilities, but they eventually join the others in imprisonment.

Delirium reveals itself to Isaac as a single yellow eye with black sclera, and the two fight. It tries to delude Isaac into submission, reminding him of the pain and suffering that he caused simply by being its host, but Isaac fights back, saying his friends believe in him and that he refuses to let them down, completely devoid of fear by this point. This gives Isaac all the leverage he needs to defeat the blob, who with each hit releases a soul that it has taken. Delirium slowly breaks down, yelling at Isaac that he needs it to live, to which Isaac responds with his willingness to sacrifice himself if it meant a world without pain, something he enacts without hesitation. As Delirium shrinks and fades away from the realm of the living, the recently glorified Pilot, Samekichi and Klaymen are successfully brought back, laying in the sand, deeply traumatized, while everyone who was imprisoned is freed. The battleships start to withdraw, confirming to the gang that their mission was a success. What's left of the group stares on into the sunset, mourning the loss of their fallen friends while trying to reassure themselves that a tragedy like this would never happen again.

## Fun Facts & Trivia

* Due to the fact that there's no traces left of the RP, this was entirely improvised based on both the 2018 version of the page and my friends' confirmations as I remained in touch with almost everyone involved.
* Both Macarona and Yagi died because I had to go yet didn't want to slow the pace of the RP down, with the former dying off-screen and reappearing as one of Delirium's proxies in the next scene.
	+ Yagi's death in particular became an inside joke due to it's inherently stupid nature. He just kinda stood on the Throne's red carpet despite being told not to. Classic boomer moment
		- Jork naturally gained the Stress mutation upon witnessing his father die. He got over it relatively easily though, seeing as their relationship prior to the portal anomaly was considerably distant. Despite this, Yagi most definitely loved his son to a some capacity, as evidenced by the fact he only joined the gang after making sure Jork was safe.
* Even if Q had somehow resisted Delirium's influence for long enough, he would've been killed by Robot's nuke anyway.
* No idea who any of the aforementioned characters are? Consider checking out the character list page after you're done reading through.
* Most of us were young and impressionable teens when we wrote this RP so if you think that all of this sucks ass, rest assured that we're far beyond the point of this writing lmao

13. ↑ Memoca's super move, it's quite literally just a giant robot made in her likeness.
14. ↑ 14.0 14.1 14.2 A main character from the 2012 RPG ***The Gray Garden***.
15. ↑ This is a rationalization. I have no real idea why he did that IRP but I'm pretty sure he just "went schizo" (as the kids would say it) for a moment back there.

• SAMEKICHI RPER HERE; I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA EITHER OKAY WE WERE ALL LIKE 12 OR SOMETHING LMAO I CANT DEFEND THIS
16. ↑ A playable character from the 2016 rougelike ***Enter the Gungeon***.
17. ↑ 17.0 17.1 17.2 17.3 A boss from the 2015 rougelike ***Nuclear Throne***.
18. ↑ Despite having been previously accompanied by Y.V, Fish shows up by himself in the Gray World. The RP participants shrugged this inconsistency off by saying Y.V fucked off back to his mansion after fighting off Throne Delirium back at the Sea Kingdom.
19. ↑ A side character from the 2014 manga ***Obsolete Dream***.
20. ↑ The main character of the 1996 point-and-click adventure game ***The Neverhood***.
21. ↑ A playable character from the 1999 fighting game ***Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike***.

23. ↑ Fun fact from the guy who RPed her: this is what I was *going* to do, but unfortunately when this was still going on, I had to leave the RP for some time due to only having one computer in the household which everyone used whenever. To avoid stalling the RP, I told the host to do whatever with her, so in the end, due to the fast-paced plot, I never got to do it. It was only recently that my headcanon ended up being accepted as canon.
24. ↑ 24.0 24.1 24.2 A weapon from ***Nuclear Throne***.
25. ↑ 25.0 25.1 25.2 One of ***Deep-Sea Prisoner's*** characters who's yet to appear in any of her works.
26. ↑ He shapeshifted into another Binding of Isaac boss but I can't remember who for the life of me.
27. ↑ An inherently unwise move as ammo is scarcer and less likely to be found in a textual format, not to mention the extraordinary circumstances behind their journey. The triple machinegun's faster ammo consumption left Yagi out of ammo by the time they entered the Crystal Caves (4-1), effectively turning him into a sitting duck.
28. ↑ Including fire salamanders.
29. ↑ A playable character from the 2014 rougelike ***The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth***.
30. ↑ A boss from the 2015 shoot 'em up ***Dariusburst Chronicle Saviours***.
31. ↑ In the 2018 version of the timeline, **everyone** was brought back so long as they were glorified, with people like Yagi and Wadanohara staying dead due to the circumstances of their deaths.

Years later, everyone agreed to retcon this, as it entirely removed any drama the story may've had by then. The only reason Pilot, Samekichi and Klay survived is because Isaac delivered the killing blow before Delirium could completely consume them, but they were left severely wounded after the fact.
32. ↑ And also like... google them and their respective media to understand them better lol.
