ECHO: "Right, first things first, I have to commend the war criminal on his stamina and skill, you'd have to be blind or even more petty than I am to deny that."

Ray: "War cri- oh, right."

ECHO: "Yes, the plumber is the war-"

Ray: "I did actually watch that episode."

ECHO: *Pauses, not expecting this at all.* "...R-right, ahem. Anyhow, very good show, Mr. Toadstool, especially with... whatever the hell happened with that stake. ...I... I will have to take a look into that, since security clearly cannot be trusted. The loss has set my other plans back a little, I have to admit, but I am a patient person."

Ray: "What else, if anything?"

ECHO: "A lesser being would comment on the performance of their former colleagues, but this one will only say that they hope they recover from what happened there sooner rather than later. A more intelligent being would also not comment on how they're working on acquiring a certain young lawyer's services for future use."

Ray: "And anything else?"

ECHO: "...Nothing, really. ...Should I have...?"

Ray: "No comments on the winner?"

ECHO: "..." "..." "...' *A cybernetic sweatdrop seeps through the gasmask.* "...."

Ray: "...You don't actually know who won did you."

ECHO: "Honestly no, I was chasing young Miss Pyrope and trying to catch her with my chest nets as soon as I got backstage, only heard bits and pieces of commentary over her laughing at me."

Ray: "...Korayashi."

ECHO: "...Who-"

Ray: "ONE OF YOUR OLD STABLEMATES"

ECHO: "...Wait, really?"

Ray: "YES!"

ECHO: "....I retract my stat- wait, the one with that ridiculous beard now?"

Ray: "Oh, now you remember!"

ECHO: "He's facing Cena."

Ray: "Yes."

ECHO: "...This is unexpected. Might end up having to readjust my plans further." *They look unusually serious at that, even after the change in attitude.* "...How many eliminations did he...?"

Ray: "...None, actually."

ECHO: "What?"

Ray: "Maniac eliminated that serial killer guy for him."

ECHO: "...So he he won the Rumble, in a match where the leader got double digit eliminations, and lasted well hour a hour from what I heard... without getting one himself?"

Ray: "Indeed he did."

ECHO: "...Par for the course, really. Alright, won't have to adjust plans after all, most likely, but must consult the Council, resume my training and get Mrs. Pyrope settled in, after she's done trying to murder me for chasing her around the building. ...And double training for a potential match with Mrs. DuPree. If I know her, she's going to be frustrated after what happened out there."
