I can answer other questions as we walk, so that is up to you.

We can go now. I'll go get dressed.

[ SCURRIES!!!

HAS TO GET Z TO HELP WITH THE LAYERS!!!

SCURRIES BACK ]

[Gets up from the couch and digs out his wand]

The place is too big to see all of it today, so we'll hit some of the easier to get to ones first.

The map on my phone looked like it was a whole city, so that makes sense...

[Waving his wand for a quick hair change and schooling his face into showtime]

We'll start with the convenience stores, arcade, grocery store and game tower. If that sounds agreeable?

That sounds good to me.

Let's go then. I am I, by the way. Though the others probably already told you, or you may have already guessed by deduction.

I guessed. Oh, I picked S as my letter since it didn't seem like it was taken.

[Leading the way out the door]

S then.

[ trotting along after ]

And that's like... my AlcheME codename thing. I guess.

Stage name...is one way to put it. Stand-in name. You'll remember your "real" name eventually. Though, by that point, you may not want to use it here.

Why not?

Some people don't wish to sully their name in Hell. Or they're a private person. Or maybe they come to feel like they've changed from who they used to be and the stage name becomes the "real" name. A number of reasons. Others start using their "real" name again because it is theirs and they reclaimed it.

... Hell is complicated.

Very much so. Then again, where isn't?

I guess everywhere is complicated.

Existence is complicated.

It sure seems that way.

Not existing is also complicated though. So, best to face it head on. Existence.

[ TAKES A MOMENT TO PROCESS THAT... that's deep, man... ]

[Points]

That's the Game Tower where we sometimes are forced into exercises about mortality and morality. Speaking of existence, did one of them mentioned the potential for death during games?

[ takes a moment to process THAT also ]

Going to take that as a "no". For the record, we come back.

aaa

Eloquently put, dear S! My thoughts exactly!
