Of course.

It's not rocket science.

[we_meet_again]

Leg science!✨

[✨✨✨]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[. . .]

Prosthesis.

[we_meet_again]

[laughs]

I'm just messing with you.

Thanks again for doing this!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Of course.

Need to make sure my employee satisfaction rate is high, you know. Wouldn't want the lot of you to defect to my competitor.

[we_meet_again]

How many competitors do you have?



And do they offer dental?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Just the one that I'm aware of.

And please. No one can afford that kind of insurance in this economy. Unless you don't mind a 10,000 point deductible.

[we_meet_again]

Just gotta buy an entirely new head in the point store and get someone on sensitiv to swap it out.

Dental problems: solved!

New problems: created!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I wonder if they let you customize the features or will you only get one that matches yourself.

[we_meet_again]

We could find out right now! Order one off the store for science, give it to AlcheME afterward to use in a prank Live.




Wait no let's not do that.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Laughs]

Quite. I feel purchasing random heads from the store should be saved for after a truly morbid game.

To keep the mood going.

[we_meet_again]

Not that the mood needs any help, but that would definitely do it.

Just as long as nobody asks us to revive them!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

. . .

I simultaneously do and don't want to go down this line of thinking. What kind of heads do you think they would send us?

[we_meet_again]

[you know... he was joking before, but now he considers it seriously.]




...Probably not any that could answer any useful questions, if revived.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Which means what? Damned? Idols that didn't make it?

There's a whole slew of them in the casino, you know. Maybe they get harvested for scrap.

1/2

[we_meet_again]

Certainly possible! Seems like there's some kind of market for human body parts here. I wonder if whoever runs the store is in cahoots with Lilith, or if they have a different supplier. 'Cause there's also all the other people from our worlds who didn't end up here when they died. I wonder where they all went.

[the pool toy that's been slowly inflating all this time is finally looking full, so he disconnects it from the air pump and seals it up.]

Speaking of questionable purchases, I got you something.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Just kind of stares at the first part of Cobalt's response]

It's not like a bucket. The producers recruit. And it's multi-hell, right? Surely they must have ended up somewhere.

. . .

Is this the sort of thing you can give me in public?

[we_meet_again]

Here.

[He scootches the 8-foot-long pool toy he's been inflating over toward Intensity. (Please disregard the small one in the bottom corner)]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[He hates it.

(No the problem is he doesn't hate it.)

GOD COBALT WHY]





I feel like I'm being bribed. Am I being bribed?

[we_meet_again]

No.

You can use it as a guest bed for your dorm.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Does that mean you're going to come over for a sleepover proper sometime?

[Instead of sad memory hangover]

[we_meet_again]

I dunno, how embarrassing was I last time?

Waking up in a strange place with no memory... I thought I was fin's newbie for a minute.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Not nearly embarrassing enough for me to get any good blackmail on you.

[we_meet_again]

Ah well, maybe next time.
