"If someone isn't dead, dying, or on fire, think very carefully if you want to bother me. Also yes, there is a lion in my house, a real, breathing, shitting, man-eating lion. I'm not making it up. Fuck off."

[ Good. That's why he likes you. Also apparently you're a single child now. :( ]

Correct. I'm not sure yet, but the gorilla is neither. Perhaps we should keep this in mind for days to come, I understand completing as many of these challenges as possible is of best interest to us.

[oh noooo he'll miss his sister :( ]

i wasn't sure if i wanted to participate, but some of these tasks aren't too hard. what team is third dad on?

[bombdemon]

[ everyone will miss her :( ]

I believe there might be something unpleasant awaiting the team with the lowest score. It does not hurt to try, so long as the requests are not completely outrageous, I suppose.

...now that you mention it, I think he's on your team?

[cleverblocker]

unpleasant? that sounds...ominous. is that how things have worked here in the past?

and that's. great. wonderful. ugh.

[bombdemon]

I believe so. I was not here for it, however. But people have died here in the past, if that is any indication. And then there's a lot of lesser but still unpleasant things like clothes disappearing off your back or people hearing your thoughts...

Don't be like that, Keipachi-kun. Perhaps it will be a bonding opportunity. You two should spend more time together.

[cleverblocker]

[okay, at least keipachi has his name in there...somewhere.]

wait, people have....DIED? like, for real died? HOW?!

[just gonna.....ignore the rest of that message because this is an upsetting revelation.]

[bombdemon]

[ It's the glasses. The glasses are Pachi, always. ]

I believe it was some kind of a twisted murder mystery game, where someone actually ended up dead. I understand it's been a while since things got this drastic, however.

[cleverblocker]

so like, what HAPPENED to them?? did they.......uh.....stay dead for good?

[bombdemon]

Ah, no. People wake up in the hospital if they end up dying in Holly Heights. Rather convenient.

[cleverblocker]

i don't know if i'm relieved or even more unsettled

[bombdemon]

It is merely more proof that we are indeed inside a virtual simulation.

[cleverblocker]

[okay, this is making his head hurt and giving him an existential crisis, so he needs to go.]

hmm, okay. thanks mom.

[bombdemon]

[ sadly he's unaware of any of it. ]

Anytime! See you later.
