Around Town Ever since Moxxie had lost his wisdom, he'd been making some...impulsive decisions. For example, he needed new clothes since, at his new size, he had exactly one outfit. A single suit pulled off of a ventriloquist dummy he had as part of a school production. However, he had options. He could go to Undertown and see if there were tailors that catered to people with more...non-human builds. He could go online and order clothes for ventriloquist dummies or large dolls.
That, however, would require the wisdom that had been stolen from him. Instead, he spots an outfit he likes in the window of a toy store being worn by a ventriloquist dummy from a children's horror TV show, and he decides he wants that outfit.
So he decides to steal it.
It's somewhat tricky getting in, but he manages to slip in after a few customers enter and leave the door slowly closing behind them. Once inside he quickly dives into a pile of stuffed animals to hide himself. He waits there, silent, and as soon as the coast is clear, he scurries out, slipping behind a row of toys on a shelf. In this fashion, he slowly makes his way through the store until he finds a row of the dummies like the one on display in the window. Once he's certain he's not being watched, he quickly steals the clothes off of three of them, then begins working his way back out of the store. Passing by the 'life sized' barbie dolls that are actually only a little over two feet...which actually is life-sized to Moxxie these days, he decides to grab a couple changes of outfit that are on display. Sure, they're dresses, but in that moment he wants them, and so he's taking them.
He continues trying to sneak to the front, sneaking through. He's almost to the exit, just has to run out and escape until...oh, crumbs. Someone's staring at him through the clear glass door.
Laughing nervously, he backs up, glancing around and wondering how easily he can make a run for it.
Realm of Dreams At some point, Moxxie decides to investigate his missing green gem, and this leads him to Zodiac and ultimately to the gate in Central Square. While he's not a huge fan of the jester costume he finds himself wearing, but he's quickly distracted from that by the fact that he's levitating. And by the fact that he's being addressed by a talking owl. At first, it's going quite well. Moxxie is polite to the owl. He's enjoying the flight, and experimenting around with various loops and maneuvers, really trying to get a feel for the whole thing and overall just enjoying himself.
When he goes through the door, that's equally...well, a dream. He finds himself in a beautiful park with a nice pond in the center. There's a canoe there for anyone to use and a couple of beautiful swans gracefully gliding across the water's surface.
He's enjoying it until...until he sees the creature. It looks like a baby with wings.
Suddenly a memory flashes in his mind. Three beings. Two are flying sheep, but the third...the third is a flying baby with white, fluffy wings. They're arguing with Moxxie and the other two demons that are always in Moxxie's memories. One of the sheep attack the female demon he's with, knocking her over the edge of the catwalk they're all on, while the other two pull out arrows and begin firing on Moxxie and the male demon that's in all his memories.
They run for their lives, knowing that if the arrows hit them they're dead.
Moxxie opens his eyes, staring at the creature before him. It's not acting like the cherubs in his flashback. It's just approaching, curious, but Moxxie's not thinking. He's only feeling. Reaching under his...well, instead of a jacket it seems to be a black and red diamond patterned top, but his holsters and the guns are still there. He pulls out one of the two guns he'd brought into this world, aiming it at the creature.
Nightmare Realm After Moxxie calms down and accepts that these cherub like creatures are not, in fact, a threat, he's able to focus on trying to find his green gem. Unfortunately, after searching it become clear to him that his gem wasn't in the world of dreams. He'd have to go to the world of nightmares.
Maybe he would have been concerned at how much the Nightopians don't want him going into the darkness. Instead, with his green gem gone, he's only frustrated that something's stopping him from going where he needs to to find what he'd lost. Moxxie pulls out his gun again and they all scatter. This time, though, he doesn't point it at them. He has it at the ready as he heads into the darkness, ready to face whatever he'll find within.
Which, apparently, is clowns. Giant, terrifying monster clowns that loom over him to an even greater extent than regular humans do.
Panicked, Moxxie yells and points his gun, desperately firing at the clowns. "Get away from me you nightmarish abominations!"
