[She sounds quite level.]So I've been asking around about that new game that debuted that makes people forget who they are and sticks them someplace new. You all know what I'm talking about? The horror game

You're still thinking on that idea.

[payback]

Of course.

[20_mentholkools]

Sounds like the easy way out.

[payback]

How so?

[20_mentholkools]

Thinking like we're in some sort of cryosleep, makes it easy to pretend like there's nothing you can do.

[payback]

What would you suggest doing?

[20_mentholkools]

[He's quiet for a moment, then he gives something like a laugh.]

That's really starting to get annoying, kid.

[payback]

You seem to think something should be done, and yet you have nothing to offer for options. Do you expect that to be convincing?

[20_mentholkools]

And you seem to want everyone else to do your thinking for you. Even keep swaying over to this idea of this place being some headfuck, dream machine, take everything out of your hands.

So here's your suggestion: try walking on your own two feet. I'm sure as hell not going to hold your hand... but I might point out some directions.

[payback]

[Eyerollllll.]

If you think so lowly of me, don't bother.

[20_mentholkools]

Kid, I don't know what to think about you. All you do is ask questions.

[payback]

Yes.

[20_mentholkools]

See, maybe I don't want to think that you're walking around with an empty head that you've just gotta fill up with other people's shit, but that's all I'm hearing.

[payback]

What does it matter to you?

[20_mentholkools]

It doesn't, except you keep asking me. And now you don't like what I've got to say.

[payback]

You're the one making yourself talk to me here. This place isn't actually a free-for-all. I guess if I wanted to try blowing up a building I could make a great statement getting sold into slavery or taken into a lab, but personally, that sounds somewhat counterproductive to me.
