The Dangerous Game of Luigi, Mr.L, & Dimentio

Triggered

Mr.L sat kneeling on the floor, staring off into space.

"Um... What do you mean 'left'?" Luigi warily asked.

"What else could I mean?! He left me!" Mr.L cried out.

"Hate to break it to you, but you're kinda in his body, sooooo..." Daisy trailed off.

Mr.L stood up.

"Not physically, you idiots! MENTALLY!" Mr.L shouted, pointing to his forehead, "He's not here!"

Luigi cocked his head to the side.

"Is that all?" Luigi questioned.

"What do you mean IS THAT ALL?!" Mr.L spat.

"I know how to get him back," Luigi stated.

Mr.L went wide-eyed and then ran up, grabbing Luigi by the shoulders.

"YOU DO?! YES! Do it! I don't care what- no, wait. Bad idea..." Mr.L muttered.

"What's a bad idea?" Luigi asked.

"Bringing Dimentio back out. He must be TICKED!" Mr.L exclaimed.

"Well yeah! You just said that you hated him!" Mario pointed out.

"But I don't!" Mr.L stated.

"Then what was that all that about?" Daisy asked.

Mr.L sat down with a sigh and buried his head in his hands.

"I love Dim, but his body and mind are so broken and distorted!" Mr.L shouted, "All of his joints take about two times more willpower to move, I keep hearing voices, he has WAY too much magic, AND I feel EXTREMELY on edge!"

Mario almost choked on laughter.

"You just called the person you're trying to apologize to mentally unstable." Mario laughed.

Mr.L groaned in frustration.

"Well, it can't hurt to reason with him!" Luigi cheered.

Mr.L gave him a confused look.

"What part of 'mentally unstable' don't you understand?!" Mr. L spat, "Do you have a death wish?!"

"Apparently," Mario muttered.

Daisy elbowed Mario in the side. Blumiere stepped forward.

"Well, I for one am ready to assist," Blumiere stated.

"You're kidding, right?" Mr.L questioned.

"Nope!" Luigi replied cheerfully, "Do you have any more serum, Mr.L?"

"Uh..." Mr.L trailed off.

He emptied out his pockets onto the floor and nothing of any interest came out.

"I think it was misplaced..." Mr.L muttered.

Mario sighed as he pulled out a vial from his pocket.

"I took it out of your pocket when I tied you two up," Mario stated.

Luigi took the vial from his brother. Mr.L looked at it and paled.

"Y'know, it might be better to just let Dim calm down a little first." Mr.L chuckled nervously.

Luigi moved towards Mr.L and he took a step backward.

"It's better to get it over with now than later," Luigi stated.

Mr.L clamped a hand over his mouth as if to prevent Luigi from getting the liquid in his mouth.

"On second thought, it would probably be best to NOT let Dim take control right now." Mr.L said.
