Her Prince And His Queen

S4 E10 The Only Way Out Is Through

I woke up when Hope shot up out my arms

Hey you okay? I asked

Uh, yeah. I'm fine go back to sleep. She said

Are you sure? I asked

Yeah. Hope said and then I layed my head back and Hope layed down putting her head on my shoulder and I played with her hair

Skip

Me and Hope are in Alaric's office Hope is breaking the therapy box with a hammer next to me while I'm standing next to her drinking whiskey from a glass

Why are you doing this again? I asked Hope

Do you want them to trap us in it? She asked

Okay, then keep smashing it. I said and she smiled

Therapy box? I think this one's broken. Hope said when she heard Alaric and Mg talking and they came in the room

Shoe? Mg asked

Shoe. Alaric said

No desire to know what that means. You know what? How about instead of wasting your energy trying to turn our humanity back on, we develop a battle plan? Hope said

Battle plan? For what? Mg asked

For beating a couple of gods in immortal combat. The sooner we do that, the sooner I can go back to living my lawless and carefree life, with Peter. Hope said

We don't know anything about fighting gods, Hope. Alaric said

Yeah, no kidding. I said

That's why I called the closest thing we have to an expert, who should be just showing up. Hope said and Vardemus ran in the room

I hope I'm not interrupting. Vardemus said

Not at all. You were right on time. Hope said

Skip

We are now in the gym and wade is here now

I'm standing next to Alaric with a human blood bag in my hand and I'm drinking it while holding a cup of whiskey

This... is a Manticulum. My own design. He uses algorithmic magic to calculate probabilities. Vardemus said

How's that help us fight the gods? Mg asked and Hope walked up

It can't, on its own. We have to combine it with something else. Something like that game that you, me and Landon played once. That's why you're here, nerd. Hope said to Wade and she was now next to me and i laughed

Oh. Oh! It's like a tabletop RPG. Or, like, a super-accurate D& D campaign. Wade said

Is he talking in a different language or anything because I didn't understand any of that. I said and Hope took my blood bag away from me and started drinking it

I just looked at her and she smiled

This thing is, like, smart dice that will tell us the outcome of any attack or defense. We can use this to war game what would happen in an actual battle. All we need to do is encode our powers into the Mant... the Man... uh... Wade said

Manticulum. Vardemus said

Manticulum. Wade said

Oh, wow, you are a nerd. I said

Don't you like spiderman. MG asked

Do you like death, because it will happen in a minute. I said

So we need to rate everyone's skills, then. Alaric said
