He rushed through the halls of his Lab, he had felt their presence a moment ago, but it was all he needed to know that they both had chosen to visit him suddenly. They rarely visit him unless it was to leave him gifts or to make sure that he had been doing well or perhaps it's because he had recently sent them both a letter stating that his newest creation and Assistant happens to be a more childlike version of Galaxy.

Which wouldn't be far fetched in all honesty.

He had gotten the idea to create Assistant Steve from visiting Rainbow Quest world for awhile and he got the idea to create Rainbow from Twisted Rainbow, mostly because he found a villain version of the usually optimistic Steve to be interesting.

It was the first time that he had chosen to create a Steve without anyone to tell him or grant him the idea, thus making Galaxy his own chosen creation that reflects their creator.

No, Prof. Favre wasn't surprised that his own creation personality reflects him to be a child, but that's not the point!...Okay, maybe there is a point to it since he was still technically considered a child in terms of how long he had existed, which wasn't as long as the others, but still, who would have thought?

Nonetheless, he ignored the confusion from his Assistants, grabbed some stuff he might need– like maybe his typical adventurer gears, then headed out of the Lab. Going straight to the Cherry Blossom Grove, oddly enough, it had always been the meet up spot for them. Maybe it's because the Cherry Blossoms are pretty or perhaps it represents something.

He knows there's a meaning, he just happens to forget what it was. Well, even if he didn't forget, he probably wouldn't even care at all at the end of the day.

He only had the cherry grove because he had to painstakingly find any in the first place to get the saplings. Which was a pain in itself.

Nonetheless, he continued to rush his way to the Cherry Blossom Grove, by the time he got there, he was out of breath, but happy. Happy to see two very familiar figures standing by the lake.

"You guys! You actually did show up! What's the occasion?" Prof. Favre questioned with curious excitement as he speed walked his way over to them, the Two figure smiled in response, with the other going over to hugged Prof. Favre. "Heya brat, good to see you are still alive– for the most part." Prof. Favre rolled their eye, knowing full well that he hasn't drank poison in awhile. As to why he would do that?

That's just something Prof. Favre does just to spite everyone around him.

Nonetheless, he pulled away from the hug and simply just smiled. "Ha ha, very funny Twisted, what are you and Ry'quest doing here anyways?" Prof. Favre instead asked, which was pretty fair of him to ask, it is quite unusual for him to see them around in the first place. Considering they have their work with the Loop and all.

But to also make sure that Saga doesn't find him.

Although, Prof. Favre has a feeling they're in for a really important discussion considering the grim look on their face. "Alright, what happened?" He asked, Rainbow Quest Sabre, otherwise known as Ry'quest to Prof. Favre, grimace. "We figured out some odd things, like– you know, what our range of capabilities are like in terms of Creation and Destruction?" He started with, Prof. Favre nodded, knowing full well what he meant.

"As you know, I am The Powerless God, the only thing I can do is restart the loop, which lies under both Creation and Destruction, considering it means I create it, but also destroy it for it to be made at all." Ry'quest pointed out, with Twisted Rainbow Sabre, being referred to as just Twisted, uncreative but that's for the best for someone like them, making a hum of acknowledgement. "That also leads me, The Harbinger of Destruction, as my name implies, under the context of Destruction." He brought up as they crossed their arms.

Prof. Favre tilted their head, he knows what each of them represents.

Ry'quest is both Creation and Destruction, due to the unusual nature of the Loop starting with the point of him creating Origin and ends with Origin death– so long as TFC dies.

Twisted purely destroys so there wouldn't be any issue with the Loop as it restarts.

Then there's Steve Saga, he's purely Creation, due to their nature as a writer. Although it could be argued that he could destroy, it's not something they do, purely since it wouldn't be interesting to destroy anything themselves.

Then there was Prof. Favre himself–

He was neither Creation nor Destruction.

He is merely just an outlier.

Well, at least he figured out what this conversation and visit would be about, for the most part. With a huff, Prof. Favre took out a picnic basket from their inventory.

"Well, besides the impossible existence that is me, can I interest you both with the fact that I created Galaxy Steve as my latest assistance by using a small fragment of the Otherworldly Star Artifact?" He instead brought up as he set down the basket and got work to take out the contents, which consists of the typical stuff for a picnic.

Thankfully, Ry'quest and Twisted seems interested–

"I bet that Galaxy Assistance of yours is just you, but as a teenager who knows how to get away with anything–" Twisted yelped when a spoon was thrown at them. "Hey! You know it's true you brat!" Twisted hissed as he dodged another thrown spoon from Prof. Favre glared at them, but they all knew that he was flustered.

Ry'quest simply just shakes his head as he watches their childish antics...

"Say, how's TFC living in your basement?"

"Rent free as usual, he's been obsessed with those gacha games as of late, it's a miracle that I have an unimaginable amount of money, otherwise I would have been broke years ago." Ry'quest shook his head at that, of course the moment TFC got free time here, he would play an unimaginable amount of games, although now that he thought about it...

Ry'quest himself can't really die due to their nature of being both Creation and Destruction, then there's Twisted whose death spells the end of their world, which is needed to continue the Loop without any impurities. Then there's Saga who simply writes stories as they see fit–

Then there's Prof. Favre.

Someone who isn't Alive nor Dead.

Someone who isn't Creation nor Destruction.

A true outlier for a scrap concept that escaped the void.

Just some random bits of lore about Prof. Favre opinion on the other versions of Sabre, specifically, in the Steve continuities. He doesn't mind Rainbow Quest and Twisted Rainbow, but Steve Saga? Definitely fear for a lot of reasons. We all know just how messy Steve Saga can be and Prof. Favre rather not get anywhere near that.
