intro | day 104

[tacosgay]

Listen.

[The voice that comes over the public channel is... odd, and new to most folks here. He pauses for a bit, as if that's the entire thought-- but, sure enough, he follows it with an obviously annoyed question.]

So we're just kind of... here, because they say so? Like... this can't be legal, can it? Has anybody tried talking to the fuckin' police about this?

[As he speaks, he gets increasingly irritated, his voice breaking.]

I'm gonna be real with you guys: I've got half a mind to just kinda magic my way out, except I'm pretty sure the Ringleader or whatever would come after me. Is that a thing?

[dorkypantsuit]

The games are winnable.

If you can't win without cheating you just aren't very good at them.

[tacosgay]

Uh, cool opinion, thanks for your input... [Spoken in just the pissiest voice imaginable.]

[dorkypantsuit]

Its not an opinion if you've seen people win at them. That makes it a fact.

[tacosgay]

Cool! Still didn't ask for your thoughts. Bye-bye.

[dorkypantsuit]

Wow, wardrobe's got themselves a real winner this time. I can tell you're really going to go places here.

[Like, to jail, or involuntary transformation station.]

[tacosgay]

Buddy, from the sound of it, nobody here is going anywhere, so you may as well get used to me.

[dorkypantsuit]

From the sounds of it I think that might be a bit harder for you than it is for me.

[tacosgay]

Ehh, I give it a D-. You tried on that comeback, but I can tell your heart just wasn't in it. Good try, though.

[dorkypantsuit]

[And that actually makes him laugh.]

Well what kind of comeback would you come up with?

[tacosgay]

Oh, I don't want to make you feel bad by showing you up. We've only just met, after all, and it's been going so well up 'til now.

[dorkypantsuit]

So basically you don't have one.

[tacosgay]

Wow, presumptuous? You don't know that.
