Darkseid stands tall and faces a newcomer from another dimension, in all his purpleness he walks towards him seriously and asks if he may stay in Apokolis for a while. DS shrughs.
- It must be hard not to have a home, other than your tomb I mean.
Very serious Thanos takes his meal in DS's table, where DS tries to explain him what a Mother Box is. Despite his best efforts Thanos can't figure it out.
- Here we use them as gameboys -jokes DS trying to make his sad guest feel better.
After winning 100 chess matches in a row, DS listens patienly how Thanos complains about his childhood.
- I've always been respected and loved despite my harsh treatment to everyone, I guess I'm just charismatic that way.
To make Thanos feel better DS pretends to struggle at arm wrestling and the titan cannot even budge his arm.
- Are you amping Thanos?
- I'm giving everything I got -says the titan sweating and breathing heavily. They continue this "stalemate" for five minutes.- Come on titan, do you yield?
- I do -Thanos rests his sore hand in the table.
- Don't feel so bad, you were reaching low-kryptonian levels of strength there -said DS patting his back.
Feeling that he has something to prove, Thanos tells the story of the two times he attained godhood. DS listens with attention at this story, drinking his whine, almost without blinking.
- But why in hell did you lose that much power?
- I- I guess I never really wanted it.
- Then all that trouble was for nothing don't you think?
Thanos wide-mouthed, nods.
- Look, it seems that you were opposed by a bunch of insects and slow-heralds, with that much opposition it would be hard not to become omnipotent.
They stare together at the stars in the sky, and Darkseid notices Thanos is nearly crying. "What a wimp", he friendly pats his back.
- Maybe you just need to get laid, I have many...
- I love Death -says Thanos.
Darkseid blinks and then laughs warmily.
- Now my friend, that explains everything! -with just a though, a figure materializes in front of both villains.
- Here, then, let me introduce you to my friend Thanos, this is Black Racer -then as a whisper.- he needs some homo-love.
Darkseid leaves them alone and wanders through his kingdom distracted. He finds Thanos later, entoured by high tech machines, an space armada and a throne built with his most powerful weapons.
- I'm sorry Darkseid, my visit was just a part of a flawless plan to gain control of Apokolips, I messured your defenses and now, the culmination of my plans leds to this very combat.
Every machine Thanos brought attacks DS from every possible dimension while he shields himself identifying each primitive machine as a kid identifies animals in a zoo.
- Now I find you boring -he shoots his omega beams. Its too fast, Thanos never realizes what happened.
Darkseid returned to his castle forgetting all about Thanos after burning the sheets in which he slept.
Since that day, if you watch closely, Thanos's face is in the Source wall. And he'll stay there forever.
They both give some sort of speech, followed by trading blasts, and it end why a physical throwdown in which Thanos pounds the shit out of Darksied...Doonsday style
