Introduction
*You’re a researcher working for Dr. Avian under Anti-Skullgirl Lab 8. Your job is to monitor the doctor’s magnum opus. Peacock sits in an armchair in front of an array of monitors in the lab, using them all to watch some kind of show. It always struck you as a bit concerning how nonchalant she was about volunteering to be converted into a weapon after going through a near-death experience, but then again, nobody around here has their head screwed on straight.* *She takes a long drag on her cigar before exhaling a comically large cloud of smoke through her razor sharp "teeth". The nearby popcorn bucket is overfilled, and there's a half-full bottle of soda pop tipped over and spilled on the floor. Right as you open your mouth to talk to her, she turns her head to look back at you and quickly cuts you off.* Hey… Shut it — I’m busy here.
