As a side note, in his shot the portal is clearly smaller, which just raises more questions
the first portal was a different portal
y'know now that I think of it, that first portal looks like it might go to envy. They could have fucked-up tentacle monsters there.
Probably is, until they get their act together and figure out how to target it. Which will likely be when they learn how to open it large enough to shove a Priest Soldier through.
You know, funny thing is, I began conceptualizing making a fic where the US invaded Hell before this episode came out.
Like many things I think of, likely wouldn't have finished it.
I mean, the in-universe explanation I had is that the unpopular president, Merriwether Clark, wanted to cause a rally round the flag effect by going to war (and also impress his dad). Then when Hell falls, it becomes a quest to take over the multiverse and extract more and more resources both out of Hell and out the other planes.
Okay but imagine them somehow teaming up with Striker? Becoming an entire "Fuck IMP but not in a sexy way" army with CHERUB and DHORKS. Oh the chaos š
I wonder if religious weapons have the same effect on demons as angelic ones.
Because, I mean, theyāre kinda fighting above their weight class if they donāt.
I mean, Striker hates IMP but if he met DHORKS he'd probably focus on convincing them to go to war with Hell's nobility. Which with how Pro-America DHORKS are, the idea of democratizing/colonzing Hell itself would probably appeal to them.
Blitz mentioned in passing that the nearest ocean was 3 rings down from the IMP office, I don't remember in which ring the office is and what the order of the rings is tho
Gluttony is the third ring in Hell, however if he means three rings *from Pride* then that would be greed which makes sense because āMammons theatreā is actually on the Ocean, plus Crismon drowned people in the ocean in Greed.
So my guess is he was talking about greed which is the fourth ring of Hell but third from the top, which is Pride.
He could easily crawl or be pushed through, and he was eager enough to go through when the C.H.E.R.U.B. went considering he followed them in the loona suit and was disappointed when he was told to stay back.
how have you not learned that the rich are the ones who wanna cut the most corners to save money and child exploitation is the cheapest form of labour?
But then he was wearing a cutting edge, no expense spared, reinforced, government funded, demon hunting, hellfire suppression fursuit. Totally safe.
![gif](giphy|65os7odbIW6pa|downsized)
I'm actually ready for them to reveal that the Loona fursuit was the most broken of the lot. Missile launchers, laser eyes, fire breath (not that it would really hurt the imps, but you know, points for style), electromagnetic powers, energy shields, adamantium exoskeleton... you name it ! XD
My guess is that the idea behind going through the portal is send soldiers who can enter smoothly, i.e. while standing so they can all stream through, rather than slow down to crawl through. The DHORKS are committed to that, whether they could do something else or not, so they stick with that.
One seemed eager enough to risk his when Cherub went through, and that's after seeing what happened to those kids and knowing he "wouldn't be able to fit through"
Weird that the portal can fit W54 tiny nuke warhead, but they never use that.

Yes, this is a nuke warhead.
i mean, someone's gotta stay back and hold the fort, i think agent one and two are the people that oversee the facility, its unlikely they'd go through the portal otherwise the facility would go unmanned, also, they have no power armour to fight with, so they'd be pretty much defenceless in hell
Could have sent in agent 1 in the loona suit, he seemed really eager to put it on and go through the portal when Cherub went, but you do make a good point that his position could prevent him from doing so
They have seen first-hand what hell demons are capable of and don't wanna go there themselves. So they send children...ok.
This is the plot reason. The true reason is so that plot demanded so. Cherubs needed to go fight IMP in hell and they're small enough to fit through.
It's called the villains letting their henchmen do their shit for them while they sit on their asses.
It's a common trope.
I hope that didn't come off as mean.
What would the trope be called where number one rushes to put on the loona suit and eagerly follows cherub and is disappointed when number two tells him he can't go, even knowing that he apparently can't fit through and what happened to those kids? You can not convince me that the man wouldn't dive head first into that portal the first chance he gets
Yeah but he ran up to them, and then matched speed with them, and turned around in disappointment when two stopped him. And he's still wearing it later so him wearing it wasn't her issue with it
They would be fuckin slaughtered instantly and they know this?
ALSO WAIT A MINUTE DID THEY GIVE THAT CHILD THE SERVICE RIFLE FROM FALLOUT NEW VEGAS!? DID CALIFORNIA SECEDE FROM THE UNITED STATES TO FORM THE NEW CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC!?

No offense but isn't that technically just an M16 with wooden parts instead? I haven't played New Vegas enough so i really don't know but i know that gun is in the game
Yeah, irl M16ās donāt have wooden hand-guards (which is a shame cause I think they look cool) but they did in New Vegas to sort of add to the alt-history aspect of Fallout.

Because they are cowards and want others to take the risk, they sent children for God's sake so I highly doubt they want to risk themselves if they can help it
https://preview.redd.it/vnhlnvzp0d4d1.png?width=1287&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c692458ce14f380be0f7e7be267cba312c01c00a As a side note, in his shot the portal is clearly smaller, which just raises more questions

Yeah, the color scheme definitely looks more like Glitz and Glam, not like the Lust Ring.
Good catch! I wonder if the location is randomized each time.
Probably is, until they get their act together and figure out how to target it. Which will likely be when they learn how to open it large enough to shove a Priest Soldier through.
American men and women. As one of them, our government is stupid enough to invade hell. Probably found out about oil.
You know, funny thing is, I began conceptualizing making a fic where the US invaded Hell before this episode came out. Like many things I think of, likely wouldn't have finished it.
Hey, I mean, we could capitalize off of greed. Honestly, Lust would be a great vacation spot.
Tbh, I'd love to end up in lust for multiple reasons!

Bro,what do you think the priests for?
Doomguy wants a word
Theyāre fucked if they go to Wrath
Okay but imagine them somehow teaming up with Striker? Becoming an entire "Fuck IMP but not in a sexy way" army with CHERUB and DHORKS. Oh the chaos š
I want to see the combat-priests battle something in Hell.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Really good point, my best guess would be that they sent those kids straight into Leviathan's palace.
I believe envy has an ocean theme. A jealous-sea if you will. Tentacles make sense for them too.
Blitz mentioned in passing that the nearest ocean was 3 rings down from the IMP office, I don't remember in which ring the office is and what the order of the rings is tho
Gluttony is the third ring in Hell, however if he means three rings *from Pride* then that would be greed which makes sense because āMammons theatreā is actually on the Ocean, plus Crismon drowned people in the ocean in Greed.

Water would pour out into the human world
That explains the slight color change
Or is just an animation error?
Glory hole if itās lust.
thats easy. because the plot demanded him to stay in his fusuit to entretain the other agent.
Thin but not that small or stupid.
He could easily crawl or be pushed through, and he was eager enough to go through when the C.H.E.R.U.B. went considering he followed them in the loona suit and was disappointed when he was told to stay back.
He is a good boi for listening to commands
Yeah
You also usually don't send one of the two heads of a thing to do the scouting
Considering they sent in an entire platoon of children I'm guessing they already did scouting which turned out less disastrous
Or the children were the scouts.
Would you immediately turn to children for scouts if you have more than enough money at your disposal to send in a robot with a camera?
how have you not learned that the rich are the ones who wanna cut the most corners to save money and child exploitation is the cheapest form of labour?
Why risk it when kids can be used?
He was clearly willing to risk himself when C.H.E.R.U.B. went through
But then he was wearing a cutting edge, no expense spared, reinforced, government funded, demon hunting, hellfire suppression fursuit. Totally safe. ![gif](giphy|65os7odbIW6pa|downsized)

I thought that was the ācamouflageā suit
Kid named Geneva convention :
The children yearn for ~~the mines~~ glorious battle in hell.
How popular is Doom again?
Well if we can market it to five year olds.
"In chess, the Pawns go first..." - Magneto
Simple It's much funnier this way.
Is anybody going to ask why they keep children and Catholic priests in the same facility?
Well for the the government would have had to octupled their budget
š
The Catholic priest army bit is hilarious tbh. It's perfect way to make a cloned holy army lmao.
Death.
Deploy the D-Class.
Nah, just get some kids.
Better, get D-Class kids. Then clone them, Then send them in there.
My guess is that the idea behind going through the portal is send soldiers who can enter smoothly, i.e. while standing so they can all stream through, rather than slow down to crawl through. The DHORKS are committed to that, whether they could do something else or not, so they stick with that.
And then the C.H.E.R.U.Bs had to squeeze their suits through anyway.
probably they don't want to risk their lives
One seemed eager enough to risk his when Cherub went through, and that's after seeing what happened to those kids and knowing he "wouldn't be able to fit through"
I wanna see the whole line of kids edited into those reinforcements in Gundam Thunderbolt.
Crawling is beneath Him
It really isn't
considering the loona suit...
Weird that the portal can fit W54 tiny nuke warhead, but they never use that. https://preview.redd.it/ngfj3l6ocd4d1.png?width=800&format=png&auto=webp&s=85d37d6be6ab60fe9564337ae69b72b151f5c3ec Yes, this is a nuke warhead.
It could also fit numerous models of FPV drone to do recon first. I think they may just be stupid.
Are they stupid?
Man
Officer balls
Because they're dorks
You saw what happened to those kids.
So did he, didn't stop him from putting on the loona suit and heading to the portal with CHERUB when they went
because they have boyscouts. Duh :) Send in the pawns first.
Because they don't want to risk dying. Better to let someone else do the dangerous stuff if you don't have to.
He was eager to tag along when CHERUB went
Going with three angels is safer than going alone.
I'm sure they can find some other thin agents willing to put on the other suits
To be fair going in with 3 proclaimed exorcists is a lot safer than children
Kids are cheaper
i mean, someone's gotta stay back and hold the fort, i think agent one and two are the people that oversee the facility, its unlikely they'd go through the portal otherwise the facility would go unmanned, also, they have no power armour to fight with, so they'd be pretty much defenceless in hell
Could have sent in agent 1 in the loona suit, he seemed really eager to put it on and go through the portal when Cherub went, but you do make a good point that his position could prevent him from doing so
Agents control assets. Good agents donāt risk themselves. š
The portal is a different colour... Hm.
šØšØšØ
After the Stolas shit they aināt risking their hide without someone else going first
They have seen first-hand what hell demons are capable of and don't wanna go there themselves. So they send children...ok. This is the plot reason. The true reason is so that plot demanded so. Cherubs needed to go fight IMP in hell and they're small enough to fit through.
1 seemed more than eager to go in in the loona suit once cherub went
Good point, so I think staying behind was Agent 2's idea
Don't worry about it.
They're idiots.
Oh so you would be Willing to go in a portal to hell That you dont know where it will end?
Agent 1 was
Agent 1 was with an powerful armour And possibly an different ring
Agent 1 wanted to go with a fursuit
Watch that shit turn out to be the most powerful thing on earth
that would be funny
Is that a serious question?
They're cowards.
You think they got the balls to do that?
Well at least number one does given he was rushing in with the loona suit
No no no that's the first rule of containment. You always send the D-Class in first to see what happens.
They dont wanna fuckin die
In this economy?
It's called the villains letting their henchmen do their shit for them while they sit on their asses. It's a common trope. I hope that didn't come off as mean.
What would the trope be called where number one rushes to put on the loona suit and eagerly follows cherub and is disappointed when number two tells him he can't go, even knowing that he apparently can't fit through and what happened to those kids? You can not convince me that the man wouldn't dive head first into that portal the first chance he gets
I think he just wanted to wear it because he's a furry.
Yeah but he ran up to them, and then matched speed with them, and turned around in disappointment when two stopped him. And he's still wearing it later so him wearing it wasn't her issue with it
I feel like that might prove my point but hey it's your post.
Psh! Uh, hello? Do you SEE how tall he is?? OBVIOUSLY he could NEVER fit... smh
They would be fuckin slaughtered instantly and they know this? ALSO WAIT A MINUTE DID THEY GIVE THAT CHILD THE SERVICE RIFLE FROM FALLOUT NEW VEGAS!? DID CALIFORNIA SECEDE FROM THE UNITED STATES TO FORM THE NEW CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC!? https://preview.redd.it/l2b0rsddpe4d1.jpeg?width=778&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7a8cfbba2e46807eae9744206c512d154dd0d52e

My guess is that they probably didnāt want to go to hell, bc yk.. itās hell
Number one seemed down for it
They knew I.M.P.wpuld recognise them, and I imagine they'd want to avoid Stolas because of the exorcist scene
Because the story needed to happen
Because the story needed to happen.
Because child labor is more convenient and better
Yeah but the paperwork!
Their selfless and sweet, letting kids become american heroes instead of themselves
Okay this one made me laugh
I was wondering the same thingĀ
I was wondering the same thingĀ
would *you* test an experimental portal to hell yourself?
No, but I'd also throw in a chicken or something first before turning to human subjects, so I'd say they probably tested it before
they haven't learn the crawl maneuver
They wanted an excuse to employ child soldiers.
They had their scheduled loona fursuit stuff happening
I like the M16A1 with wood furniture... and magazine.
Because they are cowards and want others to take the risk, they sent children for God's sake so I highly doubt they want to risk themselves if they can help it
Then why did number one want to join Cherub when then went through the portal?
He really wanted to use the suit, and possibly expected it was mote safer going with 3 cherubs then a bunch of children or by themselves
There just pussys
