"MOTHERFUCKER!"
A heaping helping of pain, served straight to the face at point-blank range. Why did they always go for the face. Why. It was like they deliberately wanted to leave him blinded and incapable of fighting back. Which, given the location, was probably a tactically sound move. But it was also rude as fuck.
It didn't help matters in the slightest that he was still reeling from his very real death experience. It wasn't at all like SBURB. There it was just an off then on kind of deal. Dead. Float around in nothing. Then alive again, right back where you had been, or wherever your friends had carted off your temporarily a corpse self off to. But here? Oh boy, that would have been a real treat to wake up to. Chest all smashed open and such. He would've had to be out a for a while to have that mess healed up.
Guess this Omniverse place wasn't all bad.
"Dude seriously," he coughed as he hit the ground. "Do you just enjoy completely fucking blindsiding people?" All he could see through his blurred gaze was a vaguely person shaped blur, a riot of weird-ass colors that just didn't really look right for a person to have. "Or are you just a dick?" The resulting snarl from the blob of color was all Adam needed to hear. Whoever he was fighting had some issues. Dude was pissed.
Well wasn't that great. Adam was too.
Adam lazily brought one hand up to his face and brushed aside the glass from his ruined glasses as lightly as he could. His grasping fingers came across what was left of the frames in the process. "So. Third place match and all. Guessing you lost too?" A stabbing pain in his everything warned him of the incoming disaster, and it was all he needed to know. With a forced yawn he rolled over, several times, carrying him well out of the reach of what felt very much like the thudding impact of a large blade smashing into the earth where he'd just been laying. "Dude, seriously. Temper. The fact you lost is no cause for overwhelming rudeness." He heaved himself up into a sitting position, and with squinted eyes focused in on Magus. He was almost able to make him out clearly despite his ruined eyesight. "I lost too, and I ain't even mad. Just kinda bummed."
"Can't win 'em all, y'know. Takes all the fun out of things." He lurched backward, flat on his back on the ground again as a bolt of some stupidly unpleasant looking — and feeling, for that matter — energy nearly hit him dead in the face again. "But if you're not gonna be civil about this, then I guess I should get on with it, huh?" He kicked forward with both legs, and with only a little effort from his handy-dandy power to ignore gravity, landed soundly on his feet.
And promptly launched straight up in a blur of red. "Hang on for just like two seconds down there, guy. Gotta fix my seeing, here." And in quite literally two seconds, the mangled frames of his glasses were back to normal, good as new. "God I love time powers." Glasses back in place, sight mostly restored, Adam finally got a solid look at who he was fighting, and...
Wait. Where the fuck did he go.
"Son of a fuck." Open palm met forehead and he sighed heavily. "Should have just not come back for this shit." A dull ache in the back of his head caused a second, much more disgruntled sigh to spill from between now clenched teeth, and he spun about, one hand held out before him. The air before his outstretched hand rippled and wavered. The sound of a clock faintly tick-ing away sounded. And then there was a burst of negative energy as another of those damn bolts of whatever the fuck smashed into the shield of distorted time. "Seriously getting tired of this shit." A wave dismissed the shield, and then Adam's rifle was off his back and in hand.
As the crosshairs closed in on the becaped wizard, he was off and running. "Tch." In a straight contest of speed Adam could have beaten him handily. But he was fast enough to bring up Adam's one true, greatest foe. Hitting moving targets. Swing and a miss, "If you could just..." Miss. "Hold still for a..." MISS.
"QUIT FUCKING MOVING!"
