imeeji_frontstage | Hell Bachelor: The Revenge

Who: Y’all
Where: Lobby
When: Day 150 around sunset

[The lobby has been set up today for a ~very special viewing~. The chairs are pulled around to face one of the TV screens, there’s glasses and water set aside for a BARiTONES style refreshment stand, and some helpful information cards have been set out for participants to get up to speed. The screen is showing someone’s shakycam recording of none other than Mars’ terrible Hell Bachelor stint, currently zoomed in to a tearful angel-looking demon (that's Velly by the by, fan favorite).

At the front stands Intensity (with all his limbs even and in this this suit), and with him Kohime -- wearing an Avante jacket swapped out for a BARiTONES blazer -- perched on a nearby table top with her legs crossed, close to Intensity.]

I do so hate leaving unfinished business.

[With a wide dramatic wave of his arm:]

Ladies and Gentleman, we present to you today the rare opportunity to provide closure to one of the poor, despondent idols in our midst. Mars, while returned to his paladin tribe, left behind six unfinished episodes, a score of broken hearts, ridiculous amounts of blackmail merchandise, and a decision yet unmade.

Who was to accept the final rose?

But it need not end this way. Our undercover agents have recovered video evidence of the life he left behind. And so, my challenge to you is this: since MidBoss was so reluctant to throw down the gauntlet, then we can make that decision for him. Review the contestants and make a pitch for the demon mistress of your choice.

May the best bachelorette win.

[Then, directed off-camera:] Can we get a pep in here for tallying?

[Meanwhile, Kohime slides forward to lean impertinently on Intensity, and adds:] Drinks on me.

((Debate/booze double Live! Come make bank by embarrassing Mars.

List of eligible bachelorettes here))

Oh, hey, I beat that guy up this morning.

[he needs points]

Really now?

I'm starting to like you more and more, whatever your name was.

[eye rolls.]

Thanks.

So?

Gonna tell me the story. The more blackmail, the better.

He didn't like that I kicked his sign.

I warned him that it was a bad idea, and well. He didn't listen.

Anyway, my position is all of the contestants are too good for him.

I see. So you're the type to look after the little people.

How quaint.

How the hell does that say "look after the little people"?

Looking out for the contestants, of course. Poor souls trapped in Liar Hell as they are.

[His tone says he does not believe this to be the case one bit]

Oh.

I thought it was more voicing my general disapproval of Mars, but sure.

Anyway, I have something for you.

Is this about our previous arrangement?

It is.

I got the parts.

I'm sure my lovely co-host can torment the eligible bachelor for a few moments.

[Gestures to the elevator before heading in that direction himself]

Oh, she most definitely can.

It's not like it's hard.

[he's definitely following]

[Then up to FiN they go.

Intensity, being the show of that he is, operates all elevators and doors without touching them]

[just show off more-- but no. Jay's taking note of what his unit abilities afford him.

better to observe than get caught... again.]

[And back to the common room you go, young Jay.

Intensity takes a seat at the main table and gestures for Jay to also sit]

So.

What do you have for me?

[he's going to take a seat, and show the grappling hook, the rope, and the gun, laying them neatly across the table.]

Good enough?

. . .Aren't you the idiot that wants to do a flip off the balconies?

No, actually. But I'd take it as a challenge if I'm being made to do it.

Pff, how's it a challenge if you're being forced? You don't have to, like, face your fears or whatever like that.

[he raises an eyebrow.]

You know, I probably could do it. Just hadn't gotten there with trying yet.

Really? Let's see it, then.

Sure, but tomorrow.

There's something I want to get just in case I can't do it.

What's that?

Grappling hook gun.
