Who: BAD END=DEAD END & you
Where: far enough away that the hotel is safe, close enough to be heard
When: Day 434, afternoon

[Wherever you are, your phone buzzes with the notification for a Live. Should you check the broadcast, it's just an overhead view of some anonymous building in the city. The roof is covered with a few mysterious dark boxes, as well as words spray-painted in red:

YOU'RE FUCKING WELCOME
VENGEANCE VENGEANCE VENGEANCE IN THE SEVENTHFOLD DEGREE !!!

In the distance, a few small figures dash away . . .

. . . Just as every single box EXPLODES with a very audible series of booms, throwing masses of brightly-colored paint splattering all over the remainder of the building, all the surrounding buildings and road, and probably any passersby within a couple blocks, too.

Also, the explosions collapse the entire roof and top floor of the building, sending paint-splattered rubble flying to the ground as well. Watch out!

The broadcast then helpfully zooms in on the paint-splattered culprits of this mayhem—the entirety of BAD END=DEAD END, who didn't quite manage to outrun their crimes.]

* * *

[If, for some reason, you don't check the broadcast—perhaps because you have more important things to do than watch every live that happens in this godforsaken city—then your day is interrupted by a series of distant, but very loud, explosions. Maybe you should check that out?]

Acting like someone who doesn't know what's going on, yes, but I find it difficult for you to pretend to be an idiot. Unless that's you telling me I should insult you, in which case. Not for free.

...

I did only mean the former.

Well, you know. I had to make sure.

But if it helps any, the frustration that comes with not knowing anything will dissipate over time. Buying memories helps, as does starting to take part in games - though that comes with its own challenges.

[ like murdering people ]

It will, yes. But if I am to remember it's best that I participate. Anything less would be grossly unfair to you all.

[ he could point out they don't care that much beyond "we don't wanna die" but he doesn't want to make him feel useless, so— ]

There will be some games that won't have any high stakes. Stuff like kissing as many people as possible, or maybe fill a bingo card with actions taken during the game. Some of these can be annoying, especially if you don't care to be sociable with others. Do whatever you want to get your points, but if it's for the sake of the Unit don't push yourself past your limits.

All right?
