037; In Which Comrade Sophie is Quite Annoyed

[eldest_hatter]

Does anyone have any guess of what might happen to us if we do not complete these ridiculous tasks? Do you suppose it will be worse than brainwashing? I imagine it might. That latest announcement on the television was anything but pleasant

If we complain about them, we get droned. It's... rather unpleasant.

What did they tell you to do?

[eldest_hatter]

I imagine they would. Did it happen to you?

I am supposed to acquire 300 hats by Friday.

[weaponsparked]

Yes. I was only asking how I was supposed to do my... task. And then suddenly I'm causing problems.

... We might have a few?

[eldest_hatter]

It seems the brainwashing doesn't last very long then at least.

If I could get them, that would help. I would rather not see what happens if we fail these tasks.

[weaponsparked]

Just a couple hours.

I'll... send them over. But I think some of us were doomed to fail from the beginning.

[eldest_hatter]

[She sighs.]

I think you're right. Finding a few dozen hats is one thing, but 500 is quite another.

[weaponsparked]

... it could be possible. At least they didn't tell you to spawn.

[eldest_hatter]

...Excuse me?

[weaponsparked]

... The town decided I was female. Or something.

[eldest_hatter]

Now that is quite possibly the strangest thing I've heard here. And they expect you to give birth to children?

[weaponsparked]

Five of them. By Friday.

[eldest_hatter]

...

They're insane.

[weaponsparked]

You're telling me.

[eldest_hatter]

They obviously want us all to fail.

[weaponsparked]

Well... some of us could make it, I think.

[eldest_hatter]

Yes, a few. And I hope they do.
