ava 13 if victim was SMART and LOCKED IN:
things stay about the same until mitsis revival no notes there
when vic realizes dark lord murked mitsi he doesnt haymaker him through the wall
instead appeals to his love for killing people, ignoring the whole mitsi thing and doing hologram stuff to do this little presentation (stands with dark lord and holds his arm out gesturing to the possibilities, parallels to ava12. shows like darklord killing a bunch of people and then the machine reviving them and loop. appeals to tdl's desire for chaos)
while behind the dark lord he secretly modifies all his attributes to be functionally useless
beats dark lord into next week to let off steam but keeps him alive
clones him a bunch and tortures him for a long while, turning him into a sentient brick or waterboarding and taking suggestions from employees and the like
lets the color gang off with a warning, studies orange for a while before managing to replicate the effect artificially and letting him go
virobots never save dark lord because hes always being watched by vic or his subordinates
revives gold
mitsi takes over as ceo again and brings rocket corp up and above its previous peak
becomes loved by his employees and the city due to overall not actually being at all bad. bar torturing a guy that reasonably deserves it
naturally he still has baggage with alan but at this stage they could probably talk it through especially considering how he felt after the fight in ava12
really vic you just gotta step up your game. i know emotions can be a lot but i thought you were a planner
