WEEK 2

[akudamods]

Saturday passes uneventfully save a little rain. It's on Sunday that you get a little notification of probation for new areas: Neo-Nipponbashi and Chuo. It'd be possible to investigate, to check out some anime, or to worship the defunct Shinkansen. But maybe it's hard to get excited about any of that when Friday’s events suggest that you have simply been provided some additional photogenic places to commit murder. Are you going to bother either overseer after their participation in some mockery of justice? Troll the internet? Get a bat out of Hyper Zone and just take out your frustration on everything?

Those of you who entered the pods will experience fewer “painful bursts of color” as your body is unaffected below the knees, though the same amount of “slight teleportation” glitches. Those of you who abstained from the pods will continue to experience all of the above as well as electric shock sensations occasionally when touching metal objects.

((Internet investigations of any kind go here, and for all IRL areas, please use "investigate" in the subject line of your top-level comment, or link the thread to a moderator!))

Fighting a bunch of wild animals isn't much of a war. They attack us while we're traveling and we kill them.

[ Or we attack first because we're getting paid to clear them out or we want their item drops. ]

All there is to it, really.

[ As for the number part, like. You saw his billboard, he doesn't need to answer that. ]

[your_best_friend]

...?

They... Are you saying they're the ones to initiate the attacks?

[pr159]

More often than not. Like I said, they're wild animals.

[your_best_friend]

...

Huh. That's a lot different than my monsters. They were actual people.

[* Actual people, not scripted NPCs, Flowey reminds himself.]

[pr159]

Obviously it's different. Our plant monsters actually keep quiet, for one.

[your_best_friend]

Anything more you can tell little old me about your monsters? What's your favorite one?

[pr159]

[ Under his breath: ]

Better at taking hints, too.

[ Sigh. ]

Why would I have a favorite monster?

CW: Gross imagery

[your_best_friend]

Because everyone has a favorite anything. Favorite color, favorite "toy" to play with, favorite food, favorite way to kill someone... you know! Now, I know it may be incredibly difficult for you to do so... It may even cause you to die. People like you would rather rip your own throat out and play jump rope with it.

But... just imagine... Trying something new... like having...

[* Wait for it...]

...manners!

[* Flowey offers a dialog choice:

* Sure thing, good sir!
* Eat a bepis.]

[pr159]

You know, meeting you really has made me appreciate using spyrix even more.

[your_best_friend]

[* ...Okay, Rideaux, you walked right into this one.]

As is often the case, I really don't know what you're talking about.

[pr159]

[ Yeah, he knows you're repeating his words, but. ]

That was the idea.

[ And he's just going to return his attention to these sunglasses and away from this conversation. ]

Anyway, don't you have some weed killer to inhale? Don't let me keep you.

[your_best_friend]

...How boring. Heard it before. Thousands of times. Try something more creative.

[* Flowey is thoroughly amused right now.]

[pr159]

[ Nah, he's saving his creative energy for things he cares about. ]

[your_best_friend]

[* Waiting...

* ...

* Hmm!]

Guess you just weren't up to the challenge. And here little old me thought you were determined. Guess not!

[* Rideaux is fun to mess with. In order to have the last word in this specific conversation, Flowey will burrow into the ground.]

[pr159]

[ Determined to fuck off out of this conversation, and mission accomplished.

Now back to looking up brand logos. ]
