[The Shimmering Lady rears up on her hind legs, screeching angrily.]

What are you doing? This isn't how we play. If you don't take this seriously, then I'll finish this game RIGHT. NOW.

[Meanwhile, a large plume of smoke and another giant bug monster is crawling out of the barn...]

((LET THE LAST ROUND OF CALVINBALL BEGIN.
Everyone from the Graveyard post is suddenly visible and audible, though still essentially intangible))

[ And just when you thought any more crazy shit couldn't happen -

A noise kind of like thunder rolls outward from one side of the village. Cracks begin to appear high up on the southernmost wall, beginning as a star-shaped point and rapidly expanding, fractaling out to make a weak spot roughly ten feet in diameter. Then chunks begin to fall out of it. The first hits the ground with a resounding crash that would have been plenty loud even if you hadn't heard that first rumble. More blast out in a wide arc that sends rocks into houses and trees (but hopefully not into any people).

Beyond the wall ... there's a whole lot of bright blue light streaming through. A circle of metal and circuitry being held in place by a seething mass of teeny tiny little robots. And the silhouettes of two familiar kids. ]
