#99: I need the code to your lab

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

CEO: Like I'm fucking sending that over text.
CEO: Or to you at all.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

#99: guess you'll have to let me in
#99: see you there

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[What the fuck ever.

He'll let Nine-Nine in when he does show up]

What?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[Sitting on the table again when he's let in.]

C lost his head but you already knew that. Thought it was time for a chat.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Did he give you the full explanation?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Suicide apparently sent him to Hell where other people who had given up live. Bodies and bodies of them. Something about betting souls, bugs eating his head off, meeting Lilith and a price to pay for leaving.

Anubis tried to heal the stitches to no result.

[Gesturing at C's map on the wall]

Did B ever tell you how many rounds there have been before us? It was the only information given to us that Exael tagged as dangerous as far as I can tell.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

We are F... so 6 including us, right?

[Though his face seems unsure.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

They've been through the entire Greek alphabet.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Do you think they can drag other Gods and Demons here?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

What does that have to do with fucking anything?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Look I might have just found out they can bring dead people here. How much of a stretch is it to bring other Gods or other Demons from other heavens or hells.

Fuck, is there is even more than one Heaven and Hell?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

The only Heaven and Hell that matters is this fucking fraud of a play that the producers are putting on!

It doesn't matter if you were dead, a god, a demon, or whatever other fucking special snowflake garbage where you came from. That all got equalized when they stripped us of our memories.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Let's say for example King is an actual Pharaoh. And remind me to tell you the details of that since it involves you. I don't think you were around for it, but later.

If he's a Pharaoh, he's the living Horus, right? He is a God. So when he dies, he should go the wherever Gods go when they die not to this fake Hell. His should should not get stuck in internal casino limbo.

At what point does their reach stop? It's on thing to lose your memories. The loss of powers is more disconcerting. If we can stop them from suppressing our natural abilities, I think we have a better fighting chance.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Counter-argument.

What makes you think that these bodies are our real bodies?

What makes you think that all of us aren't actually dead?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

This is going to make me want to get memories to figure this out, huh. Fuck.

Considering Gods or other Demons, it doesn't sit well that they would have that much power. For regular humans. Guess that just fuckin' sucks.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

How are memories going to help unless you magically get back the memory where they hi-jack us from wherever the fuck we came from? And before you even start - there's no fucking way the producers would give us that memory back!

Obviously these fuckers are powerful if they can both grant and take away powers.

We're at a complete fucking disadvantage.

And this was before we knew that an untold number of idols would rather be used as fucking betting chips in a torture casino instead of fucking sticking it out up here.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Of course, I know that. I'm not an idiot.

[Pinching the bridge of his nose.]

The reason I'm considering taking memories is because I'm pretty confident I'm not human. What that exactly means might gives us leverage or an advantage.

So we need to know what powers they have in relation to other gods and demons. If they can trap them, then my backup plan goes out the window.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

What the fuck do you mean you're not human?!

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Exactly that.

[Tossing him his phone and paying the hundred points. Enjoy ONE TURN KILL yo.]

We are gonna talk about King's latest memory after this.

1/2

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

. . .

[What the fuck? What the ever living fuck?]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

That CARD GAME fucking killed you!

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Killed is such a strong word. I survived.

So now let's go talk about King, shall we? He's a Pharaoh that lost his memories. There was a stone tablet depicting a duel between him and you from long past. Can't say I liked your hat.

Forget memories. How do we get our abilities back? Does their powers have a radius? A limit?

But now I know that this has been done over thirty times, I'm sure others would have also thought about it as well. Unless they are getting bolder with each run.
