Okay, hello everyone. Welcome to, um, Visigoths vs. Morgoths, episode two, about two Earth
Years Later. Here we are. I'm so excited to play this game again. Before we get into all
of my lovely friends and this lovely game, I just want to say thank you for watching.
If you want to support us, see us on Twitter, Instagram, Patreon. We have all kinds of weird
things going on over there. We also, of course, have a Discord that is even weirder than the
three things I just mentioned. Um, I think that's, yeah, I don't have any announcements,
but does anyone else have any announcements? Yeah, I just want to say that I am wearing
some sweet Street Wolves shwag that was sent to us by our friends at TableCat Games. We
all received a little bit of something. I want to remind everyone that Street Wolves
is out. It came out February 6th. We're not currently going to be showing this on February
6th, but it's out. So go catch it. It's a really fun game. We'll eventually be running
it. I suggest you get it. Alright, wonderful. Um, okay, cool. So, oh, I want to talk about
Visigoths vs. Morgoths as a game first for anyone that has never seen this game be played
or has never even heard of this game. It's relatively new. It's created and distributed
by wonderful, queer, talented TTRPG writers, specifically Lucian Khan. We want to give
a shout out to them. Um, because without their work, we would not be here this morning. So,
yeah, it's super simple system. Um, everything we're going to be rolling is 2D6s. Characters
cannot die. There will be no actual death in this game. And the mall sort of exists
in a parallel dimension where you can't technically leave. I encourage you all to try, but you
can. So the whole game is going to be in a very much 80s and 90s before malls sort of
died off. So I encourage you all as you're watching this to get very nostalgic. As you
can see behind me and the way that we all look and behave. I will now kick it to my
friends to introduce themselves. Let's do alphabetical order. Why do we always got to
be first? We can do reverse. I'm Aaron, and this is very unfair. And I'm playing to dig this
close. Hands down one of the most difficult names I've ever had. You really found the hardest one.
Uh, I'm Allegra and I'm playing Theo Denanda or just Theo.
I'm Amanda and I am playing the Brunhilde. Brunhilde. Now it's just B. It's B.
Goddess. Or BHB. B is mostly it. I'm Caleb James Miller, and I'll be playing Apex Bonanaw,
better known as Greg. I'm Eli and I am playing Bliss. I'm Sergio and I'm playing Lenore.
And I am Zach and I will be your mall rat for this moment in time. If we are ready to begin,
I will set our first scene, which is usually early morning at the mall. However, it is summer
1990, which means that it is way too hot and way too early to be around in the mall in the morning.
We're going to begin our story early afternoon at Floppy Joe's Cyber Chili, where we have known
both the Visigoths and the Goths to hang out very often. If we can go around, I have some
questions for all of you guys. This scene is going to kind of be our establishing session zero
sort of session, so everyone bear with us. But I'm going to ask you to describe the way your
character looks. Has anything changed since we last played together? And where are you
planning to go after the summer is over? This is kind of the last summer before
whatever happens after high school. So what happens for you all?
I would kick it to honestly, let's popcorn, because Aaron, I understand that you're oppressed
in this February. Sergio or Lenore to start us off. So Lenore has definitely had a costume
change in the last two years. Last time we saw her, I believe Lenore was a lot more goth like
fishnets, black on black on black, black eye light, you know, the whole thing. I think that
the makeup has remained traditional goth, but I think that the clothing has become a little bit more
she is a theater tech. And so I think it's looking a little bit more like black overalls
with maybe like a dark blue shirt, you know, long sleeve. She's been known to carry around
tools. There's almost like a little bit of a I think as she's had a relationship with Theo
Denanda as well, I think she's come into a little bit more of a of a tomboy, I guess is a way of
saying it like she was super, super girly and goth at one point and now it's kind of just like,
I don't know, almost like embrace the two halves of her. And there's just something a little bit
more professional in that kind of working sense. And she is definitely like dead set on going to
a school where she can learn, you know, lighting for theater and special effects and
seems very gung-ho to one day work, you know, on Broadway or something like that.
You know, on like cool dark shows like, you know, Jekyll and Hyde or
fucking, you know, Lidny's or something instead of something more humble gun poppy. But yeah,
otherwise Lidnor is, yeah, that's it. Okay, then we'll kick it to Theo and I'll let you guys
both chime in on this. Are you two still together also? It's complicated. Yeah, it's been a little
awkward lately. Theo does not understand it's complicated. Right. We are still technically
in a relationship. Yes. Yes. Oh, technically. Okay. Another word I don't understand.
Okay, Theo, how you feeling? How you looking? Theo has not changed physically whatsoever,
except for that their hair is longer. Theo refuses to embrace the fashion of the 90s.
They're still obsessed with hip hop and rap music. They think it is verbal poetry, which it is.
And they they're experimenting with makeup a tiny bit, but they are still very aggressively,
I am a Visigoth. It does not matter where I am. I'm still a Visigoth.
But they did find the school's rugby team and found a way to be a warrior in the present day.
So they have been the word is scouted for a rugby team at a college. I don't understand
what that means or what I'm supposed to do there. But I get to fight other people. So that is good.
Feels good. Good. Thank you. Okay, let's kick it to Brett Hilda.
And Hilda has definitely definitely embraced the 90s culture. I mean, everything is like you'll see
the bright shirt. They even have sports memorabilia. They don't they just saw they thought football was a
thing you could chop off feet. But it's just a bunch of people tackling each other. So it's what
they take it and they have a bunch of different socks. They quote TV shows. That's how they
learned a little bit. But they get it slightly off and they have a glorious, glorious fanny pack.
It's for where you can hold the weapons and any other things you need. It's very useful.
Do you keep somehow do you keep Britney Spear in the fanny pack or where is that?
Ah, the spear of Britney is always attached because it is a glorious piece. But yeah,
think of it like like Donatello and the Ninja Turtles is always like on the back.
My favorite Ninja Turtle.
I like Donnie. He's very smart. I learned a lot of lessons from those brothers.
Wonderful. Then we'll kick it to the other side of this couple. Apex, how you feeling?
Apex has been good, man. He is actually thriving like he's in his element and he's looking towards
the future. He's about to go off to college. He recently qualified for a NASA scholarship to attend
MIT and he's waiting back on an acceptance letter for whether that goes through or not.
He's just really trying to embody this new life he's about to have. He's been very happy with
Bren and being with Bren has brought out a new quality to him. He's not quite a top or anything
like that anymore. He's just gained a newfound confidence that has brought a new layer to Apex.
But recently he started thinking about how finite the world is when you're going off to college
and he's questioning things. He's questioning a lot of things. Physically, he's changed his look
because he felt he was too forward-presenting in his past. He's become a very fashionable furry.
He even added a little bandana to let people know he's a cool wolf, not a lame wolf.
I think that him and Bren have been together, been very happy. He's been showing Bren television.
He just spises that Bren is into football but allows it. It was purely because it means that
Bren will tackle him on request at any time. And somehow the socks just really get him going.
He likes the feel of the fabric. And they've taken two spending a lot of time together.
Almost every night he curls up at our feet. Amazing. I'm going to take this time now,
as I'm all rat, to say that this is the summer after high school. So everyone's going to be
18. Because based on the words you just said to me, it's better that everyone is 18.
But it does look like Apex and Bren are still together and they're happily together.
We fucking. Great. Yeah, I'm so glad I said that. And we're going to call me 18, Zach.
Thank you. We're going to go to Bliss.
Bliss has not necessarily changed but just elevated and upgraded themselves.
So they're just now ascending into the true goth form that they were always meant to be.
Um, so, you know, usually get a like, you know,
leather jacket, like it's summer, but, you know, leather jacket, pants, boots, you know,
she's got fancy shades for, you know, to keep the sun out. But other than that,
nothing has relatively changed for Bliss. Sweet. Sweet. And lastly, food, how you feel?
Dex is close. It is not that hard.
But I, I don't think I've changed in any substantive way. I think I am very much
dedicated to the old ways and maintaining the semblance of our great culture.
We are, after all, the ones who defeated the Romans in the forest.
And that is a legacy worth living up to. So it is my, I have made it my duty in life
to resurrect the old Germanic religion. I'm calling it neo-Germanism. And I am ready to
spread it to the world. My intention is to go from town to town, village to village,
hamlet to hamlet, spreading the good word of Walden and his murderous ways.
Thank you, Deacon. Thank you so much for that. I have, I now have several follow-up questions
for everyone. So, okay, so it looks like food is leaning into it, into everything that a visigoth
is. How does that affect your relationship between Theo and Bran? Because it seems like
Bran is fully doing the opposite thing. Are y'all still cool? How are the visigoths feeling
as a unit? I am pretending to be cool with Bran Hilda, but deep down, I am very depressed that
they are abandoning their culture. They used to be such a mighty symbol of our ways. They were
our greatest warriors, and now look at them. Their visage has completely been destroyed.
Once a proud visigoth warrior, and now this...
I still have not forgiven Tugekska's close for dabbling in the capital G-O-D-E god.
I said, I'm sorry, sister, I'm sorry. An apology does not forgive going toward the Romans.
And in the words of Cher, as if, talk to the hand.
Speaking of dabbling in the capital G-God, Thud, are you still sneaking around with Benedict?
I'm sorry, what did you say? Are you still sneaking around with the Catholic boy that
runs the Christian bookstore? Oh, I forgot about that. Let's, let's say yes. Yes, let's say yes.
Okay, lovely, thank you. Okay, my... I forgot, are you hooking up with the Catholic boy? I don't
think, no, I think I'm just really fascinated with, with his whole, with his whole shtick.
He tells me, he tells me about the... It would be less shameful if you were fucking...
He introduced me to the John the Foreman. And he has, he has most, most, most magnificent, most
magnificent hair. Okay, I do want to clarify that Apex told everyone that somebody was giving
somebody sloppy toppy, and I, we didn't address that again. I know who it is.
Okay, great. I think we all do. You can work out the truth of that between the three of you.
While you're doing that, I will move on to my mock-offs. It looks like
some of these notes that I have about last session have no context anymore.
Half of this game is just going to be interpreting what the hell we did last session.
Honestly, no. Okay, but as a unit, mock-offs, do you guys feel that you're all still friends?
I want to... One of the things we left off at was Apex was level four, or at, like, the fourth
member of the team. We got about the levels. Yeah, there's been a promotion.
Wait, he ended up... That's up to Bliss whether there's been a promotion.
I mean, two years? That has to require... We're still together, yeah. We're still together.
Yeah, you have to be at least number three now. Okay, great. Congratulations. I'm coming for that two spot.
I beat the invisible third member. I think we're okay for the most part. I think that
LeNor is probably struggling the most out of everybody with the fact that she's going to
be going away to college. She sees that Bliss is still basically the same Bliss that she was
two years ago, and that bothers her a little bit, but she's not going to say anything about it.
But I think she's feeling it, but I think everything's copacetic as long as they're
all hanging out and stuff from the mall. We always have them all. We always have them all.
I think that Apex sees a little bit of weakness in LeNor being afraid of going off to college,
and that forward movement, and senses an unseen tension between the two,
and thinks he can use that momentum to climb up and rank. But he's also in the same boat as
LeNor, where he's realizing that he has to be a real person after this summer,
and so he's really forward thinking. He's trying to think of the furry he's got to be
tomorrow, not the furry he's got to be today. Great. Thank you. Okay, lovely. While you all,
I will start you all off in Floppy Joe's Cyber Chili Cafe. Like I said, it's late afternoon,
or early afternoon. You all have been coming to the mall. After all, you always have the mall
a little later in the dog days of summer. But we're coming towards the end of it.
We've got a few more weeks, and Floppy Joe comes up to you. Actually, are you all sitting together,
or are you sitting in your separate groups? I think together. I think together, yeah. There's
enough crossover. Lovely. Yeah, we're the really annoying fucking table of theater kids at Denny's
and until this clock in the morning. Yes, and I like to push two tables together.
And I would like to be scratching Epex's ear. I'm like completely cuddled up into the patterned
shirt, like underneath and nuzzling on the neck of Bran. You guys are getting hair on the food.
Could you not? Usually dogs sit on the floor. Usually. Wow. This is like a part of my culture.
So if you're like speaking against my identity, we're going to have like serious issues,
because this is a lot more than just me. And it's who I am. And it is a part of our culture
that the dogs live out on the street and fend for themselves. He is not a dog. He is a wolf.
Great. The forest even further away. That is what we do with wolves. We kill them. And then
wear their pelts as a suit. Brother understands. Well, I mean, we have been here for a while.
Seems like you two just need to adapt, but that's what all warriors do.
Yeah, maybe. I still fight. Well, maybe B's right. Maybe you guys have been here for a while. It's
time to like, you know, find some new digs. But perhaps it is time to conquer.
I'm taken. As soon as you say that, I'm kind of just kind of zoned out and just like kind of like,
let them be bitchy. I'm enjoying my life. You hear the sound of a vacuum, a very,
very loud, old vacuum that is steadily getting louder as it's like approaching the table.
I'm reaching Britney Spears. Like, that noise scares me a little bit.
You hear an old, older black man saying, no Spears. We've already talked about this.
And it is our boy Floppy Joe.
Floppy. Hello, Floppy Joseph.
Thank you.
Floppy Joseph, as if.
I'm not just going to sit here and pretend like I'm not hungry. So I'll order a Floppy Joe,
if you don't mind. Joe. Yeah, Joe's all around, I assume.
No, doesn't really work with my diet. Could I get a steak as rare as you can get it?
I've got a hunger that can't be matched. We don't. I'm going to point to the side and I
want you to read it. This is Floppy Joe's cyber chili. We got chili. We got Floppy Joe's.
Yeah, but you got to make the chili out of some kind of meat, right?
Yeah. You know what? You know what? We actually did have a recent change to the menu.
And he looks at the Visigoths last time, when you guys first got here, you complained about
not having mice on the menu. And I can't do that, because this is where food is. But I did have sort
of a second weird option that might appeal to some of your more primal people. And it is just
ground turkey. Oh, that's lovely. As raw as it comes, fresh off the bird.
Yes. You ground the meat of a bird. This fresh ground meat that is fresh that I have for you.
Eating a ground bird sounds dangerous. It sounds like I don't want to eat the feathers,
you know? No, no, no, no. There's no feathers. But you said you ground up a bird.
Yeah, the meat of the bird. You take the meat out and you grind it and you take it.
But then what happens to the rest of the bird? That seems awfully wasteful, Floppy of the Joe.
A good question. I don't know. Theo, we went over this last Fourth of July,
okay? It's just ground meat. It's not a big deal if you want some, eat it.
Ground, but it sounds like it's been on the ground. I thought you weren't supposed to eat
things that came off the ground. You told me this. You know what, they're kind of getting to me,
because you bring the feathers too. You want the feathers? Yeah.
Yeah. Okay. And Floppy Joe goes back and he's, you know, you're lucky that certain people stopped
in today and puts what looks like, like Michael's feathers, like craft feathers. He just like
sprinkles them on the plate like garnish and delivers them to you. Some glitter scouts dropped
these off this morning. So I guess that those are your feathers. Is this a particular bird? Like,
is this a fancy turkey? Because it has multiple colors. Yeah, it's the new turkeys.
The new turkeys. What did you do with the old ones?
They no longer live. That's probably what I would do. Yep, exactly what she said. They no longer
live. Do you guys, are you good? Can I, these are good? I guess this will subside my hunger for
now. Watch out for me, Floppy Joe. I may need some servings, but Joe starts fucking just going
ham on the plate. No hands, like mouth straight to the plate. Joe, before you go, I have a question.
Yeah. What, what is it that you do? I'm so curious. What is it that you do that makes the
Joe's so floppy? Oh, well, I guess I, I take it, right? And I put it in a bag with the seasonings
and stuff. And then I just kind of, you know, and that sort of gets them where they need to be.
Usually I don't have time for that now, because it's the lock in tonight. But that's what I like
to do. You're showing good form, by the way. That's a good form when you actually need to
take off multiple like heads of your enemies. That's a good form. Yeah, that's what Brent does
with my body. Okay, okay. You have to raise your hand. This is all the time. Wait, Joe, did you
say there was a lock in? Yes, that is my question as well. Yeah, the glitter scouts lock ins tonight.
That's why I got to make all these sandwiches. All these little kids are going to be running around
here overnight and they never bring enough food and suddenly it's up to them all to make sure
they don't die. I remember when my mom wanted me to be a glitter scout. Yeah, it's
what to glitter scouts. What glitter scouts again? Yeah, okay. Can I have,
actually, no, you guys don't have to roll for it. You can see the, yeah, that basically it's a form of
like girl scouts, boy scouts combined together. They are a bunch of little kids in purple glitter
sashes that go around selling cupcakes. And this is their one little like end of summer event
where they are locked into the mall overnight. I never wear one of those dumb sashes. Maybe
look like an idiot. Yeah, more than usual. Man, I love to flip one of their trays. I mean, I mean,
I want to, I want to support them. Maybe I'll give them some money. Well, they're all over the place
selling cupcakes. They're going to try to get as much as they can before the mall actually closes.
So if you see one. Manor, you got money? I mean, I've been working a little bit on the side. Yeah.
Saving up for college and stuff. She has done hard work. She is good at this.
Shit. Where you been working? Mostly at Dracula video on the side once in a while. Because,
you know, I love movies and stuff. I was actually going to say Theo, if you wanted, I wanted to pick
up something at Dracula video for one company later. Life without dreaming is a life without meaning.
Shit. Is that another rap lyric? Yes. Wow. You're really good at keeping that up.
And yet, rejecting modernity at the same time. Yes, that is the only thing I like about this world.
It's very gangster of you. Thank you. That's what I like about you. I have heard that gangster is a
good thing. You are also gangster. Actually, if you kids are both gangster and don't have anything
to do for the afternoon, can I ask you to go to FEDA for me? I just want to see what they're doing
to get prepared. We just, yeah. We don't work for you, Joe. Is there something you could give us
in return? Yeah, the mall. If we don't pull this off, if these kids don't go to sleep and wake up
with the same amount of people that were alive as the kids that went to sleep,
they're going to shut them all down. Not forever, but it's just... They shut down the mall?
This is like a really risky venture to to risk the entire mall over this. They should hold it
somewhere else. It's not normally, but the air conditioner has been kind of weird lately and
they don't even want to hold the lock in. They think the mall is not safe for anyone to be in,
and if this goes badly, it'll just prove them right, and they'll shut them all down until
they're... Who are these raiders that threaten to come and shut down this glorious mall?
Yes, because I want to tell them to take a chill out. Where? Like the city. Where is this city?
Point them out and they shall be dead. Where is the city? Who is the city? He points... Oh, well,
first it's the mall boss, and then like the commerce person, whatever their name is. I don't
even know. But do they have an office at the mall? They might. Do they have a name?
Yeah, um, you want to look for Evans? Evans. I don't know their first name, they just go by Evans.
Is there like a Sharpie pen like here? I think, I think you have a collection of like gel pens
around you at all times. Out of my fanny pack, and I'm gonna write Evans just on the arm.
Wait, no. B, don't scar your skin like that. Use me and Apex's skin in his forehead.
I will write Evans on his forehead. And then I will go ahead...
I mean, my god, the thought of a world without malls, like, impossible. We have to make sure
tonight goes off without a hitch. Yes, we will find this Evans and we will blood eagle him
for all to see. What's a blood eagle? Oh, you do not want to know.
Okay, it sounds pretty sick. I kind of want to know. Okay, so... Do you know that Dracula movie?
Yeah, it's the worst. Well, that that they just stick. Yes. So what you do is you place a person
on their knees and you bind their hands behind their back. And then you take a very long blade
and you split their back open and you remove both of their lungs and place them up on their shoulder.
And then they slowly suffocate. And now it's actually a very merciful way to execute someone
because if they do not scream, if they do not cry out in pain for help or for mercy,
then they have a chance at entering the glorious afterlife. If they do cry out, then they are damned.
Is this the kind of thing we can expect at your church?
Fascinating. You said, fed? Yeah, thank you. If your kids just want to go and see what they're
doing, I'm starting to get a little nervous. Like, I don't know if I made enough sandwiches.
And if those little kids get hungry, it'll be a problem. If it gets me away from this conversation,
I'm happy to go talk to Feta for five seconds. Great. Good one, Bliss. This sucks. I agree.
I just look at apex for a second and then look away.
Okay, good. Now we will close out this first scene unless anyone has anything else they
want to accomplish. We will also reintroduce the concept of passageways between every scene
while you guys are in the hallways of the mall. You can also perform actions, speak to each other.
This was more for when you guys were two separate groups and wanted to connect,
that if you just want to like pass notes or have a little moment before you get to a store,
you can do that after every scene. The mall away hallway. Exactly. I think Lenora would just
have a moment with the other Doth's where she's like, and I suppose Theo could be there as well,
but she would just kind of like, wow, you know, all this talk about the mall, I realize I haven't
been here for a couple months, actually. It's been a little while, like things have changed.
Man, we're all growing up so fast. I think it's changed so much. It's just like any other day.
Yeah, we just like graduated, like it's not such a big deal. Where were you guys, by the way,
during graduation? I went looking for you guys couldn't find you anywhere.
Which party did we go to, Bliss? We were somewhere, right? Yeah, we were at the same place. I thought
we were calling you like we totally tried to text you. It's weird. Yeah, it must be that weird
glitch we're always talking about where I get no messages or calls from either of you.
I mean, you were probably just making out with B again, and you always ignore the phone at that
point. Yeah, you're right. She does have a pretty big hold on me. Big hold on me. But we know.
But I do think tonight would be a very awesome time to just lay the final legacy for us here at
the mall. You know what I'm saying? If we can keep this glitter scout thing under wraps and the mall
can keep going, don't remember us. You know, once we all go off to wherever it is, we are all going.
You think they'll put our faces like on a plaque or something on the walls? At least a sticker
or some kind on a door. I could always bring some spray paint. We could do a little graffiti.
That might be a little more permanent. Oh, I like that too. Oh, fuck yeah. Always with good ideas,
Lenore. Either way, it's crazy that like this is going to be the last summer we all spend together
the three of us. I mean, we've been doing this since God, the last thousand years. Now, don't
remind me. I'm feeling weird about it, but whatever. If you ever need to talk about it, Lenore, we're
here for you. Another time. Let's just get this feta thing over with. Sick. Yeah, it's not really
a sigma thing to talk about your feelings anyway. So let's keep moving. Now, gods are clearly going
to feta. Visigoths and Morgoths can technically always move independent of each other. Visigoths,
are you also going to feta? I am going to go to feta. I will also go to feta. But on the way,
I would like to speak to my brother and Bren Hilda, or I'm so sorry, B. I believe we have
a singular opportunity this evening. Ah, go on. These small scouts, these little glitter bugs,
or whatever they were called. I believe we can turn them to the glory of the Visigoths
and leave our mark in a very certain way.
Go on. We sack them all with the tiny. Yes.
We sack them all. You sack them all. For glory. For glory. That's what we do. We sack, we pillage,
we burn. Yes, but we don't pillage our own. Very frequently we do. We pillage others.
We usually pillage with our enemies. But our enemies here, we find Benedict and
anyone is an enemy if you pillage them. But I always kind of thought of this place as like,
was that he showed me like how you do in France. This is our place. That's what I,
that's why will we destroy our own. We should be destroying others. That's where I'm at.
Much like Walden had to die before he could be made new on the tree of life, we must too
hang ourselves on the Yggdrasil of this small so that we can start our new lives as adults.
Brother understands. Yes, but brother has been, haven't you been still talking to the Catholic boy?
He has. Who, who told you that? I mean, he's a sneaky brother. None at all. They are sneaky. You.
I just want to pillage and burn. I do not wish to, I do not wish to talk about this.
It seems like you don't want to talk about your feelings, and that's a problem with.
We are, we are Visigas. We don't talk about our feelings. We pillage and we burn.
Not talking about our feelings is a very Roman thing to do. Look, I have, I have a confession.
I have dedicated myself to the ways of Brittany and Spears, and I am stronger than I was yesterday.
That is true. You are losing your edge, but your strength has not waned.
I have evolved, adopted. I am now more powerful because of that. Look at you, stand out. Me,
I can sneak up behind Evans and kill him because I blend. And with, with you blending in front of
the store, we will start our second scene. It is late afternoon. We are at Feta Worse Than Death
as you all approach the entrance of the store. You see a Victorian goth girl
about the same age as you all in a Victorian dress, like full Lolita sort of outfit.
And she is, she doesn't even see you walking, so you do not get a high welcome.
Lenore is going to go ahead, Vliss if you have something. Oh no, no, you go.
Lenore just walks in and probably like literally every other customer is like,
oh, did someone fart in here? And then immediately regrets saying it. It's like,
I'm sorry. Hi, how are you guys? Nice to see you all. Judith, hey.
Judith's head whips around and she has like a suspiciously,
like large amount of like different cheese on like her hands or like where she might have
like wiped off her face like she is a mess. And she goes, it looks like she's going to yell
like she's so upset. And then she goes, we're doing the best we can. Please be nice.
Okay, the Glitter Scouts are coming and I do not have enough samples. They keep asking for
samples. What can I do for you? Judith, so nice to see you. Yeah, really good to see you.
We were just coming by because Sloppy Joe was just wanting to check in to see how you're doing
and we're just stopping by. I'm fine. Yeah, fine. You look. You're not a very good liar.
I'm fine. It's just we're running out of cheese and they keep, the Scouts, they keep coming in
and asking for samples. They usually something will tell you to stop asking for samples like
we're going to run out of samples and we sell the cheese so we can't give away the cheese for free.
We can't give it all away for free, but they keep asking. Judith, have you tried saying no?
They're too cute to say no. Have you ever said no to a Glitter Scouts? Why don't you like just go
by like craft singles and give them that stuff? They won't know the difference. They'll love it.
Yeah. Oh, good idea. Good idea. Why don't I just scrape the dust off the ground
and wet it a little bit and give it to everybody? I mean, it'll be cheese dust, so it probably
wouldn't be bad. I believe they do it with what you call hot dogs that they sell in the food court
all of the time. Oh, the liquid cheese. Is there something I can do for all of you?
We were just told to check in on you and see what you were doing to prep for the kids.
Like, what should we tell Joe? Like, is he ready for this or no? No one can ever be ready for this.
I'm doing the best I can, but we will never have enough. These babies are so hungry.
This mall is going to stink if all these kids are eating cheese.
I mean, to say your food is delicious, but come on, cheese has a byproduct.
Have you thought of just scaring the children away? That usually will fix a lot.
Yeah, be like just like use your howl. You got to get in deep from the chest and just growling away.
Yeah. I mean, Apex could always just post up outside and scare the kids if they come too close.
Or an excellent guard dog. I was once hired to stand outside of a barn's nobles for 14 hours.
I was there for 16. They didn't even have to ask me. Can Blisk just go over to the door and
then flip the sign from open to close? Yes, you can. Oh, that works too. Yeah.
Look, problem solved, Judith. They won't be coming in here anymore until you're ready, at least.
Thank you. Yes, that should keep them away. But I like the idea of scaring them. If you can,
if you see them, if you can scare them or, I mean, during, while the mall is open, it's fine.
But it's really when the mall closes that things get weird. So please,
yes, if you could just sort of be the protection between us and them,
all of you, that would be great. What do you mean? Oh, yeah, I scare plenty of children. I got you.
Giving children fear is a great joy to me. It's a good way to build character.
Blisk, can I just have you roll 2d6 real quick? Sure. Cool. I heard your question.
Five. Okay. So of the things that you've been noticing, because you're also a witch,
so you're tuned into this, the moon is slightly and every night up to this night has been getting
increasingly more purple. Now that you are all in the mall and you have seen Floppy Joe was vacuuming
purple glitter. What is left in the store, there's evidence of glitter scouts being in here and
asking for samples. There's glitter on the floor, on the counter, just the same purple that the moon
has been. And the fact that all of these grown adults are afraid of a couple of kids in overnight,
this is the weird. Something is happening. I think Blisk is going to go up to Judith
and just be like, what do you know that I don't know? What's going on? Why are you so scared?
What's weird? Is it the moon? It's the moon. But honestly, I like that kind of thing. So that's
fine. But it's just the girls are working on something and I don't know what they're working on.
They're very serious about it. One of them left their shopping list here and
I know they're going to come back for it, but I can't leave because I don't want to go find them
and hands you a shopping list or rather a to-do list that the glitter scouts have created. And
I will send that to everyone over at this court right now. Okay. While Blisk is having that
conversation just a moment ago, Apex and B were agreeing on about something. What was it? It was
like you both should just howl. Right, right. The whole howling thing and hair kits maybe stay out
and go. Right. And so Lenore is standing next to Theo and just kind of like whispers to Theo like,
man, it's crazy how much B and Apex just are really in sync, you know?
In sync. That is a band. I don't listen to that band. I mean, like they just like get each other.
Like they really are always agreeing on everything. It's kind of rare, you know?
Yes, that is very special. Our relationship is also very special
because you like things that I do not like and I like things that you do not like.
But don't you think that could also like pull people apart also?
Hmm. I had not considered that.
Yeah. Don't worry about it anyway. It just let's just let's keep talking cheese.
You guys, ma visigoths, I can't read this. Does this look familiar to you?
You're illiterate?
Not that I'm a Lenore, please. It's just written in a different language. It feels more
your avenue. May I see? I hand Theo the note.
Sounds like this reads like the names of Theo Fidusa Kloos's cousins.
Who is trying to read the note after Bliss? Me.
Okay, everyone that's trying to read it, give me a quick 2D6. If you can add any modifiers,
if you think you can try to weed that in there, let's do it.
Can I detect lies?
Yeah, if you want to see if anything on the list is bullshit, feel free.
Can I see if anything is...
Okay, no. Can I use make levitate on the list to hold it up to the light to see if there's
any information that's like been erased or anything like that or like...
Yes, incredible. Yes, roll in after modifier.
I rolled a 9.
9, Lenore.
14, and Lenore you rolled an 11?
Yes.
Sweet. Okay, so all of you know that this is not English. This is not any language that
physicals speak. For the bullshit check, everything on this list is real. It was written
by a Glitter Scout and is something that they intend to get in the mall today.
It's almost like Pig Latin, you know what I mean? We think it's maybe like the letters
are mixed up or something.
Do your pigs speak the Roman language?
Is there any chance it's like Wolf Latin?
Well, no, can you speak on Wolf Latin?
Yeah. I only know like preliminary phrases and everything. It's really in depth and you've
got to go to the 8chan link to really learn through because it's like a Duolingo API that you can
put in through the back of the channels so that you can learn every day.
But like write this one that like kind of sounds like Fudica in Wolf Latin that'd be...
Fascinating. Can you give me another example I'd like to learn?
Sure. Yeah, absolutely. The second word.
Aric Amorica is more like...
Keep going. What about Game Sika?
That one's a little more delicate. That one's...
I mean, we're almost there. Can it Kadele Sika?
Yeah, let me just walk away from my my mall mic.
Last but not least, Mevica. Yeah, Mevica.
That took a lower turn than I was expecting.
I think I should maybe stop before my mom neighbors are really upset.
I don't think there's inspiration in this game, but just know that like the next game by DM,
it'll absolutely roll over.
Yeah, Apex just always is.
Oh my god, thank you so much.
That's going to turn into one of those fucking little shorts we do on Twitter.
It's just going to be like...
No, no, it's not.
Never, never, Sergei. We'll never do that.
Thank you for sharing your culture with us.
Yeah, as informative as it was, I still am no closer to understanding what this stuff is.
Like Fudica, are they just saying food?
It would never be that simple, right?
It sounds like the wise warrior of Fudica that I've heard of.
So you mean like the food court?
Yeah, about court, CA.
Oh, is it one of those game things?
Like the word, like the word, Sergei.
A word to scramble, perhaps.
Yes, Eric Murka.
What would you food guys?
Yeah, what would you re-contextualize that as, Mevica?
One minute.
Acid food.
Well, the third one could be games.
Judith sees you all after that moment and says,
you might want to ask one of them at night because they wrote it.
It might be helpful.
You can try and decipher it.
I think that's super fun too, but if you'd like to...
I think we got this, Judith. Thanks.
Yeah, so I think that third one might be games.
Like the arcade?
The second one might also be arcade.
Oh, why would they have two?
I mean, if we happen to pass these little sprites, we can ask them.
All right, okay.
You guys mind if we go to the Dracula video real quick?
Yeah, Lenore, whatever you want to do, man.
We got to cross more things off the little college bucket list.
Maybe we'll find some of them at the Dracula video, I don't know.
There's not food there.
I thought they said the babies were hungry.
But how hard can it be to find a glitter scout?
I mean, one must imagine that they sparkle everywhere that they go.
I suppose, yeah, we could literally just follow the glitter trail.
That is true.
Well, there's no telling they're not at Dracula's.
Maybe they're getting a movie for tonight's sit-in.
I mean, we can always separate if you want to try to,
you guys can go take your movie.
We can go find this glitter scout.
I don't see why we can't.
It immediately looks at feels.
Is that what you want to do?
You want to break up?
Or I mean, I mean, split up, split the groups up?
Split up.
Whoa.
We can split up.
Yes.
You know, splitting up is how we killed the Romans, right?
Because we split the Roman army in half,
and then half of them once we do it.
Divide them and conquer.
No, I'm saying we, if we split up, we're the Romans.
It's a very bad idea.
So I'll go to the food court, and you guys go to the movie theater.
And anybody else who wants to come with me can come with me.
We're splitting up again?
I mean, guys, this is our last summer together.
We got to soak up as much time as we can all together.
All of us are going to college.
All of us.
It is like the eve of a fun, like before the night of a great battle.
We have a last hurrah for all the potential death.
We'll have that last hurrah, but we still need to just find these little
sprites or whatever.
Apex.
Apex is right.
I don't think we should split up anymore.
We have, we have a saying in our culture, and it's that,
sleeping is practicing for death.
Think of this temporary splitting up as practicing for the time to come.
Yes, because whatever you love can be taken away.
So live like it's your dying day.
Who are those in Muto Woods?
Uh, Kelly with the machine gun.
I got to be honest with you, all that advice fucking blows.
Most of it has to do with me fucking dying.
I don't like that beat.
You will not die with me here.
Thanks be.
And if you do die, just make sure that you do so gloriously.
Living life is a choice.
Making a difference.
Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
Who told you about that?
Keep your tongue in our mouth.
Okay.
Do not get mad at him.
And I look at the selection right now.
The text is close.
She's so modernized.
She can't even pronounce the name anymore.
She lost the language.
He hasn't said B at all.
He's been calling me by my name.
So why should I be calling his name?
Okay, no more dead name each other.
I can't decide.
Whatever, whatever the group's doing, I'll just do it.
Maybe there's a lot of tension.
I'm starting to...
We'll just go to the...
We'll just go to the movies, to the video store.
Jesus.
Okay, looks like we're all going to...
Are you okay, Bliss?
You sound upset.
You're not upset with us, with me and Lenore, are you?
It's more like them, right?
Not me, of course.
I just turned around and walked towards the video store.
Sick, cool.
I'll take your silence as an affirmative.
You know that can be interpreted as rude.
How rude.
All right, to the store of the moving paid things.
Wonderful.
Okay, so we are now...
We're at scene three, which is early evening.
We're at Dracula video.
The mall is starting to clear out most of the people
that stay here are either people that work here,
or other cool teens, such as yourself.
You enter Dracula video, which is the video rental store.
You see Fritz Fang, who apex you absolutely know,
because he is a werewolf.
And I believe you guys touched foreheads last time.
Did we really?
Yes.
This kind of feels like we all had way too much to drink last night,
and Zach is like retelling everything that happened.
And Zach is like, oh yeah, Zach is going to do that.
Yeah, we worked extremely hard last night.
I have no recollection of Fritz Fang.
I know, I know.
I'm here to give you guys a couple of cues before we start.
Did we really like each other?
We found like werewolf solidarity.
Yeah, you guys were bros.
Was I into him at all?
No, it wasn't like that.
It was very much homies.
Like you guys were talking about how hard it was to be furries.
Together, you guys were in struggle.
Just two bottoms talking.
I got you.
Exactly.
Do we see any sprites around here?
Any, what are these called, the glitter scouts?
Glitter scouts.
Glitter scouts.
The purple glitter bombs.
Roll, and everyone that wants to take a quick look around the store
that wants to see something other than Fritz going to roll for me.
Can I use my levitation again to rise above all of the shelves
and just look down?
Yes, yes you can.
I rolled a four.
I rolled a four.
I rolled 10.
I rolled 11.
Cool.
Damn.
Food apex, y'all looking?
For your right.
I got the five.
Okay, so Lenore and Theo, you see a sort of like rush,
like someone quickly turning a corner around a wall or a doorway.
And a adult like foot that looks like someone that's been laying on the ground
quickly pulls their foot back from behind the counter.
No one else sees that.
I drop my levitation and plummet to the ground and land over top of the person.
Okay, who are you?
I'm going to rush over because I saw that.
Okay, what's everyone else doing?
I'm going to go see Fritz if I don't see this.
Okay.
Plus this is aimlessly wandering through the store looking at different videos and stuff like that.
I'm not engaged.
I'll probably follow Theo.
I too wish to charge into battle.
I was going to say if I saw Theo drop down, I would assume they caught someone.
So I'm going to go with Britney Spear.
I'm going to take that out.
Okay, so you see, you do see a glitter scout.
It is a very short, maybe four foot tall brown skin girl with a purple sash who's standing over
a grown man who's like maybe mid 40s in a sort of janitor's like suit, like one piece suit
who's laying on the ground and he looks like he's lost a fight.
He's sort of like scoot back against the wall from this girl.
And immediately when you all turn the corner, they both look at you.
He looks terrified and she looks as if she's been caught.
Hey little glitter shit, what are you doing?
I bend the knee to this tiny glitter scout who has downed a janitor.
Small but mighty warrior.
What is your business here?
What has this cretin done to deserve such treatment?
He just got my way and the janitor goes I was doing my job.
I was doing my job.
All I did was clean and you leave so much glitter everywhere and she goes shut up.
Listen to the tiny warrior.
It would do you well to keep her mouth closed.
Who are you?
Why are you helping me?
What is this?
I'm not here for you.
I'm here and I turned my attention to the glitter scout for you tiny warrior.
This is the tiny warrior saying who are you and why are you helping me?
Oh it is.
I thought it was the man.
I forgot he had a moustache accent.
My bad.
Look first of all feel you're approaching this the wrong way.
Okay it's a little kid.
You don't show them that amount of respect.
Okay they got to show us respect.
They have already shown their value Lenore.
Why scaring an old dude?
Oh the glitter ship what the hell are you doing scaring this guy?
What are you up to?
What is this thing?
Now I'm going to hold up the menu.
The list.
Yeah menu.
Well she tries to actually roll a D roll 2d6 for me.
She's going to try to snatch it out of your hand.
Oh no you don't.
Oh boy here we go.
Oh another I keep rolling a five and a six eleven.
Yeah.
She rolled a six.
She's going to snatch it and it's just too tall for her.
She goes give that back.
We're trying to.
Yeah that's right.
I'm looking at you like this is why you don't.
Go ahead.
We're trying to get everything bright for tonight
and he was getting in my way.
Now this is our mall now.
You two are just going to have to wait until we're done.
What is your plan here?
I am also a warrior as is my friend Bee
and we would love to help execute your plan.
You would?
To take the mall.
Yes I would.
This is wait wait wait it's but it's our mall not your mall.
No we would like to share the mall with you and learn of your plans.
Yes let us merge forces so that we can better conquer.
Well first off I only work with other glitter scouts.
We're the future.
You guys have had your time in the mall but it's kind of played.
It's kind of done.
Wow this is really this is striking me harder than it should.
This hurts.
Well I'm sorry.
The fact that my girlfriend just loves this new regime change
and Lenore's just going to stomp off.
Little glitter scouts.
People are weird.
Are you going as well?
Please tell me what do these words mean?
Yes.
Oh it's it's like double talk.
What does double talk mean?
I do not understand double talk.
You will have to make this simple for a little fool like me.
Yes is this like category?
No like okay so my name is like Maisie like
Mytica Namica Isaka Maisika Isaka.
Oh my goodness that's to the name we were right.
Yes.
Okay okay.
Wait wait.
Aureka Morica.
Armor?
Armor?
Gamesica?
American Eagle?
Canica?
Candles?
Okay.
Meb.
I don't know what meb is.
What is meb?
My name is meb.
Says the man on the ground.
Wait wait.
Meb your name is meb.
Yes my name is meb and I'm the janitor and I just want to finish my job.
If you could get this girl away from me please.
Why is the name meb?
That does not that is not that is not the good one.
What do you mean why is my name?
The names are the way they are.
But meb?
It's my fuck name.
I'm not one who got defeated by the warriors.
I would shut the fuck up.
Okay well first off have you ever had a bag full of glitter
shoved down your throat?
Because you can't spit that all out at once.
It's choking hazard and that's why I keep trying to get them to clean the fucking glitter.
Are you choking?
This is a baby.
Why are you shoving glitter down your throat?
Because I wanted him to be quiet.
Understandable.
Thank you.
I mean he is annoying.
He keeps telling us that we can't walk around with our glitter sashes because it's
messing up them all and it's a choking hazard and it's like
I don't understand.
Only for me because it's a choking hazard.
Only that we die of choking.
Yes so I'm trying to make sure that he doesn't leave and he won't stop moving and meb is like
stuck up against this wall like Maisie is holding it down.
Well as you were small warrior thank you for your wisdom and I look forward to you
taking on the new leadership of them all and I walk out.
They're cool thank you now meb says well now that they see you leaving if I can't stop these
girls I can't clean the air conditioner which means I'm gonna have to close them all.
That is your problem meb figure it out.
Meb is terrified.
I immediately go to bliss.
I hate them all.
I'm yeah I'm still I'm still perusing through through stuff I'm like sliding.
I go to bliss first because I left the group earlier.
Yeah okay okay we hold quiet.
There you time with bliss here we go take a number.
So Lenore, Lenore comes up first and she's like god I fucking oh my god sometimes I wish
I was asexual like you.
Trey I mean Lenore I do enjoy the occasional kissing but yeah you're right I do not like
to attach myself.
Yeah yeah you're right I mean I just noticed you yeah you're not as attached and it is messy.
It's messy things are getting messy I don't know what to do I think Theo and I are drifting
apart as I get ready to go to college.
I mean is that so much of a bad thing Lenore?
I mean I haven't thought about it but I mean I feel like Theo's been a good influence on me I mean
I've been like bullying a lot less people.
Sure sure and now you have an eclectic spread of little quips of rap lyrics too.
It's fine it's great it's a time and a place but you know.
So you're saying I should be in the college mindset of just experimenting and you know
dating people and love isn't real real.
I think that is what I'm trying to tell you yes yeah be free.
Well she's coming let's pretend like we're not talking about it.
Theo!
Always spry as ever I saw you over there yeah that's great.
Hello yes I have broken the code.
Cozu. Candles. Arcade. Games. Hold on I have to look at the list again.
Food. Arcade. Games. Candles. Meb. They have already crossed one thing off of their list
so we must take all of the things that they need before they can get to them.
We must get the armor we must destroy the arcade so they cannot use it and we must
get candles I don't know why we need candles but we need to get their things before they get
their things because this is our mall they cannot take our mall.
Yeah but earlier you sounded like you wanted them to destroy the mall and destroy the AC like you
don't care about the mall. For a person who deals in theater you do not understand lies.
You were lying the whole time you were pretending?
Yes you lied to children. Lied to children there's nothing wrong with lying to children.
Wow I'm impressed. There is don't lie to kids.
Okay so if we're still all in this together then I mean what they got meb they wanted to stop meb
so I guess he couldn't fix the AC but what do they want candles games and the arcade for?
I don't know but we need to take all of them and armor we need armor because they are small
and they are rainbow. I was gonna say what was interpreted as arcade is actually armor.
Oh excuse me armor. Okay. Yeah you guys already got to it you just forgot.
I mean my overalls are pretty thick I don't think anything any glitter is gonna get through it.
Your overall armor may be thick but spears are sharp and they have teeth.
These kids are gonna have spears? They could. Yeah why are they arming themselves?
Well then I guess we need to go to these stores and stop them from grabbing something from there
then right? Yeah you didn't hear this little glitter shit talking about how they are taking
over the mall that they're the new you know leads of this mall. Everyone every year tries to say
that they want to take over the mall and at the end of the day who takes over the mall it's fine.
You know all we need to do is get battle ready isn't that what does it cost to just get battle?
Yes. Yeah so why don't we just armor up or whatever and kick little glitter sprites.
Man my therapist is gonna hate this but I can't wait to kick their ass.
From there we're gonna wipe two frints and apex at the counter. Oh wait wait sorry.
Okay um um Brent just uh come back to me later just no I'm not gonna leave meb with this little
kid. Okay you're still in the hallway. Yeah I'm still with that yeah. Sweet sweet okay um apex
you are at the counter with Fritz uh he is excited to see you. He also has he has his ears or not
like you have four ears right Fritz's ears are like fully wolf ears. You don't know if it's like
surgery or if he's an IRL werewolf but it's a different thing. Damn. He goes what's up dude?
I think that apex doesn't even speak at first he's just kind of put his hands down on the
counter at least primed himself into a very like cautious uh point of view.
You see Fritz getting more and more animalistic and almost jumps on the counter and starts like
Yeah why do we permit this?
Fritz comes across the counter and grabs your your like the back of your shirt and just like
headbutts you. I fully headbutt back and then like somehow turn it into this very big deep hug
yeah um that comes out of nowhere. Yeah it's a lot of like grab like re-grabbing and like padding
and like it's more than it needs to be. Yeah there's so many claps on the back like it's just
unnecessary. Sup man what's up dude? Hey Fritz oh man so good to see you man. Haven't fucking lost
your edge I see you. What's up man? No never lose my edge never lose my edge moving on from
Sigma to Alpha that's what this year's about. Now that's right you're going to some like nerd
school I heard? Yeah yeah um yeah yeah uh yeah can I show you that actually? Fuck yeah dude.
And and apex reaches into his bra just reaching into his shirt and he pulls out an envelope that
he sets down on the the counter in front of him and in big like sharpied letters it reads MIT
and he slides it over and uh if uh if Fritz reads through the letter he learns that uh apex has been
given a NASA scholarship to MIT with the expressed major of rockets um and that he's been accepted
with a full ride. Where are you? Is this like is this like something that there's a lot of
furries in the NASA community? There's so many stem furries actually. Seriously? Every every
furry is a stem I promise you the government is run by furries. That's not even dramatic yeah.
So many furries and rockets um and apex is the next in the long line of very prestigious furries.
Fritz looks at you and goes fucking wolves in space dude. Yeah man wolves and stem wolves and
stem that's important man. We gotta get more of us up there there is not enough representation
is important and it's it's so hard oh I'm so proud dude. I knew you would get it Fritz. I knew
you would get it. Yeah man. My dad was totally against it man he wants me to be a preacher
and you know how I feel about the lord he's close to my heart but he's not first he's not number one
you know yeah that's uh that's belongs to BB you know oh oh it's still it's still you know
it's still going yeah yeah we're good we're totally good doesn't know about this yet and he
points down at the MIT envelope but you know it's don't you have to like move in soon and stuff
yeah in like a week you know uh yeah I don't tell the others but like
might be the end of the road for old apex moving from that sigma grind set to the alpha
existence. You're excited I mean you seem happy but this is tough dude this is no new moon
I am really excited I'm really happy like I like the person I'm gonna be and like I
know who I am and everything but like I don't know there's comes a time in every young wolf's
existence that he realizes he's got to start his own path you know yeah yeah and I just don't
know how this path is gonna take it they kind of need me you know I'm like the glue that keeps
us all together I'm like the leader I'm like the one in charge I'm like the one that leads
everything I see that I see that I see that all the time I just assume that that's you because
yeah it's not like a lead from the back point of view so that they don't get too intimidated by what
I'm trying to lay down it's like that's a big grind set like I was telling you yeah yeah that's a
natural pack structure to put the leaders in the back so you can see if everyone's alive yeah Fritz I
just don't know how to I don't know how to tell her hey like it's all coming to an end she kind of
lives here in a liminal space that is constructed through a time travel situation that kind of traps
her in the mall for forever and so she's just kind of been regurgitating anything she can find at
a Spencer's yeah like I'm not in that place you know so you gotta you gotta sit her down right
you gotta sit her down you're the alpha guy she's the alpha gal and you gotta sit her down and say
we are both alphas that I've got to go to space and if she doesn't fucking get with you dude
she should have never been with you man you gotta let her go
Fritz man you always know what to say that spaceship was really good thanks man thanks man
it's just real it's just the real shit and not everyone's ready for it and but I think you are
yeah yeah so like do you want to buy something yeah you got any copies of avatar 2 way of water
fucking of course dude I would just love to be one of those big blue guys
this is a 90 listen you guys have said so many time sins already that I you know what
a use baby a use I cannot sweet sweet knobby love yeah I got you man but actually no one
else has even touched this movie I don't know what's going on but it's there all of the copies we
have are still here and he checks one out for you and as he's handing me the avatar 2 way of water
I hold it with one hand he holds it with another and then I take my separate hand I put it to the
back base of his neck and I pull him forward so that our foreheads touch yeah and we howl
desperately at the moon and then I take my copy of avatar 2 way of water okay I will say at this
point all of you hear these two howling at the counter and you all hear the adult voice of
what is going on in here and you all see a short thin white man in all purple in like purple
shorts and a purple shirt a collar and a bunch of patches on it and a glitter sash as well
and he's walking he heard the howl but he's continuing towards the people of the hallway
but he's addressing everyone what's going on in here sounds like a bunch of people being loud
Theo this is like they're like they're warlord
the glitter can we take him down now do we know his name
not yet do you want to ask my name I wasn't talking to you thanks but I'm sorry I'll ask your name
I'm scout master pebble stances pebble excuse me pebble pebble he does look he stands does look like
a bit of a pebble he's just a little tiny rock yes yes I'm here overseeing the overnight lock-in
for all the glitter scale let's make sure they're safe and fit and ready for tonight's first
dividers what can I do for all of you it seems like one of my little kiddos is back in the hallway
I'm gonna see about them yeah they were a costing one of the employees of the mall did you know that
no I did not making making fear for his life is there a patch for that
well yes but that's that's not we're not doing that tonight it's it's time for fun it's not
time for for pseudo political aspirations oh that does sound fun yeah I mean is this fun
include overthrowing the current coolest people in the mall I mean is this about the commerce
department commerce department what is that the government thing that evans
evans yeah yeah evans lovely person friend of mine actually but this isn't about them this looks
like it's about something else can we ask the old where is this sevens we would like to meet him
well Evan's office is right by the mall boss's office it's on the way out of the mall
you can find it in the hallway interest let's go find the sentence but I'm gonna go see about my
little my little glitter scout here excuse me and um meb you can see that pebble basically takes
meb and this is or not meb pebble is a little man a very little frail man but fully in both arms
picks up mazy by her shoulders like rocket ships her away and meb like it's like
scrambling and crawling for his life and runs out of the store and is just holding mazy
I'm gonna make sure that she's all right I'll see you guys around the mall I assume you guys are
gonna be here for a minute yeah we'll be around yes we must be careful of this one it is always
the tiny frail ones that are the most competent generals yes why do you think you have survived
this long brother under my rule your rule didn't know there was a hierarchy so what now
are we are you are we stopping the glitter shits or are we going to talk to Evan's because I
we have to do this as a team I guess I don't think anything that productive is going to come
out of talking to Evan's this could be when we split the party well now we want to split the
party interesting fascinating I was always in favor of splitting the party I knew it
oh no I
oh no I'm supposed to run after her yeah I like give that look like
dead yes oh dear I like tautel after
okay we will actually yeah we'll do passageways and then I think we'll go on a break
but brand new something to say um I want to make sure that the girl doesn't kill the janitor
okay so pebble is holding mazy just like a loft um between his hands and mazy is just like kind
of in neutral mode like if you pick up a puppy by the back of their neck that's sort of like
honestly that's what I would have liked to do earlier it's like kind of like pick her up by
the scruff of the shirt just to keep her away from him because okay technically I'm stronger than
her and she can kick all she wants and don't mean shit technically do you say while while the fritz
scene is happening while this is happening do you say anything too mazy we got a lot of spank
like that but use it elsewhere that's I just not really because I'm kind of just finding it funny
but okay you're not like trying to like struggle the way that kids do and you're
it's funny to me I'm giggling you squeaking like a worm until pebble picks her up that's
that's where you two are at um we will cut to looks like Theo's chasing after Lenore for passageways
Lenore is uh just getting a quick uh like smoothie to drink she's like in line
hello Lenore you looked upset and I was told that if you are upset I'm supposed to follow you
oh yeah very intuitive yeah just you know thank you
Theo
isn't there something we need to talk about
uh well the mall is in danger but I have a plan it's not about the mall it's about us
yes us uh hmm your hair looks nice today is that what you were looking for about this
no you've always been really stoic but now I'm starting to realize this is like
I don't know like I'm going away to college and we haven't talked about the fact that
we might never see each other again and you just seem totally okay with just keep doing your thing
my heart will break when you are away but it will be knit back together when you return
or it might be knit back together by another in your absence who's to say
I mean at first I was like oh my god she's gonna wait for me and now it's like forget it I mean
you're totally gonna sleep with someone else well technically we're all sleeping with someone
else because sleeping happens at the same time oh my god you're so confusing sometimes just fine
all right if you don't want to be together anymore that's fine it's like fine you're together now
Lenore as the great Tupac said you've got to be able to smile through the bullshit
you know how your quotes always get me so I know all right let me just order this orange
Julius and I'll feel better than we can keep going on our adventure to say the mall you can
you can be with me or not with me but I will carry you in my heart forever in one way or another
what if I didn't go to college what if I stayed here with you and just like rejected society and
just like you know eight wild animals like you and stuff I can do that would that make you happy
no I would fucking hate it well then don't do that you're only alive for a very short amount
of time honestly I'm at like middle age at this point for for my my civilization so I won't live
that much longer that's not true you're just like you're like 20 and I'm 18 you're not that much
longer than me I am I am in fact also 18 oh well then what are you talking about I mean you're now
that you're in the modern world you're gonna live a long time like you can start thinking more modern
like be honestly oh interesting think more modern will I still be able to play the warriors game of
rugby when I go to college yeah of course it's a modern thing yeah I just look just think about
this whole thing like I don't know if I'm into this whole like casual friends with benefits thing
you know what I mean it's kind of all or nothing with me oh well do you want the all or do you
want the nothing I don't know that's what I'm trying to tell you and I mean forget it forget it
we'll we'll just we'll talk about more later you still seem upset I don't know if our conversation
has been concluded no I don't think it has either but I want to sip on my orange julius now okay
that is your choice but thanks for talking to me it does help fantastic okay let's meet up with the
others I'll pat her head kiss her on the head does anyone else have a conversation they want to
have during passageways where are we going next yeah where are we going that's I think
isn't armor yeah we don't we have a list of things that could point to some stores um we're also
right at a good time to take a break if we want to take this time to think about where to go next
yeah that'd be great in the top zone welcome back we are getting into the second half of the game
we are starting off at the fourth scene it is late evening um I do want to know what the plan is
for the goss before I get into it so we're I think we're going downstairs wait wait I thought
gauze or did you say visit gauze oh no fair did you mean all gauze when I say gauze
umbrella term every gauze if I'm talking to mall gauze I will say mall gauze right but that is
fair because that's how I interpreted it yeah thank you um well we would cover more ground if we
split up we would be able to see a couple more stores so might be smarter well shall we who
will go with who I would like to go to hail satin I also would like to go to hail satin
obelisk hello what is it hail satin that we need candles ah why don't I take the brother yeah why
don't I take the brothers and you guys go to another store see what the glitter scouts are
doing and then we'll come back and reconvening trade notes apex we need to get some armor you
want to go look for some armor okay yeah I'm totally down for some armor I don't naturally wear armor
because my thick padded uh down fur is so powerful that it doesn't really need anything in addition
to what I already have but if we need to get you kitted out of course well go ahead we could
get him some good wolf armor because we want to make sure the fur we want to keep it all clean
and I like it yeah I keep it smart yeah but I don't think silky's gonna help you in a situation
against glitter sprites or glitter scouts whatever the hell these kids are called so I will go with
him get you out too I will go with him to get everyone armor I need sizes and preferences
you know what I like you're the theater tech uh Lenore so you probably have the most experience
costuming people I mean honestly yeah yeah so I think me and be will make a good partnership
here to get us some armor those weird costumes you did for suzuko last year were fucking crazy
man I love the part where they were really horrifying to look at that wasn't my intention but thanks
yeah there's super goth uh in the way that it made me physically uncomfortable I guess it does yeah
it's just you know when you're goth it just comes out everywhere you know everything yeah
okay so three and three we are splitting the party but not in straight visigoths and straight
moguls we are mixing things they've never done anything straight before that why start now this
is true nothing about this game is straight but uh clarify for me armor gang what store are you
going to I have a couple of stores to recommend if that's helpful but if you know where you want to
be second I don't think we know where we want to be yeah I'll go with your recommendations suggestions
yeah yeah so there's um I think brink and mortal or brick and mortal is a hardware store but of
course there's a lot in there that could be repurposed for armor there's play gall which is the
sports store and then there's the bears those are the three sort of what was the last one stores
bears jewelry and accessories yes run by gay bar and gaydar yes oh god that's tempting that is on
the top floor um I'm between bears and brick and mortal personally okay let's go to bears then
okay fire is go to bear these are all have like sequence and stuff on it
hopefully not glitter because that might be confusing but okay it might be a good disguise
let me we just did our passageways so I will actually catch up with candles people first
you guys are going to hail satin correct beautiful okay so hail satin is demonic bed and bath store
with black terry cloth curtains it is of course mall golf territory but now that you guys are
sort of mixing together it doesn't really matter uh this is where our boy hemlock is um he is uh
black black lipstick trench coat traditional cloth um he is at the counter as well
hi welcome I'll uh I'll go and like put my hands out and just greet hemlock um like I normally do
so good to see you yes lovely to meet you again I'm so excited that you're here uh it's
kind of a scary time but that's kind of good for the both of us I think yes and no I mean are you
dealing with the glitter shenanigans yes the little uh glitterati have been running around
everywhere thankfully they have no interest in towels but I've seen them through the door
it's been tragic yeah actually well it's not really my bag right because I'll be gone
but they do tend to sleep in here overnight because of the mattresses right so they will
be in here but I won't be here for that so if we wish to lay a trap this would be the place
this is the place you so can't you sell candles don't you we're looking for some candles
thousands of candles what kind all of them now is this for something spicy or are we doing
this is to save them all so I think spicy yes I think spicy my usual package would probably
be enough like the usual ones I get every month or so let's see these spicy candles what uh what
what makes them so so hot to the palette they're full of magic yes they are and what's fun is
they're actually way colder than the other candles they're made of soy and she or hemok pulls out uh
belises normal order which is 20 uh actually describe what these candles look like um they're
primarily like black and white candles of different heights and sizes and like lengths and stuff like
that um but yeah it's a it's an excessive amount and I use them all um it is like a a brick's worth
of candles that hemlock puts on the counter um these are all sort of soy candles which of course
means they burn a little slower but also they could be used as lotion you know what I mean I
do know what you're saying I do not know what you mean are you implying that you pour the hot
candle wax onto your body that's exactly what we're saying that sounds painful you know you get you
get it I do understand no that sounds nice um I give whatever money I owe yeah yeah it's done
it's fine um you uh you get the candles I'll this is um oh the last thing I was gonna say is like I
heard those glitter shits are looking for candles so maybe not sell them any oh interesting do you
know why they're looking for heavens heavens doesn't know why something about they want to like
bring in the new like takeover the mall whatever whatever preteens think that they can do um
hmm well why not encourage it which is why we are asking you to give us all of your candles for
safekeeping of yes you want all of the candles to own you want to buy all these candles uh we
were thinking more of just we will see here is our pitch we hold the candles for you and we protect
them we defend them from these glitter children and uh in return perhaps we could use a couple
but we will keep them all safe for you okay so I can like lock the candles away oh trust me that's
not going to be enough you've not seen these children they are rabid little black-hearted
monsters your store your store is not safe make no mistake they will come to pillage
and burn and destroy everything that you hold dear so it's best if you just hand it all over to us
but how do I know I'll like get them back and stuff oh we're cool don't worry we'll give them back
and look looks at bliss it's it's okay I it's it's better than you know if he'll escalate it
you know um so just might be better just you know I I will make sure that nothing happens to the
candles that I didn't buy you know okay can I have you both roll 2d6 unless one of you wants to assist
the other which if you have a modifier that you can add to the other person I have persuade
does that give me a plus two yes oh I will need it five in total four oh wait I have persuade two um
so that's a plus two um six okay
Theo before we we move forward here Theo what are you doing uh Theo has pulled a very small
stone out of their pocket and they are carving something and they are carving something
and they uh will just walk up behind hemlock and touch it to their cheek and I want to sun them
okay uh roll for it and add whatever modifier
ten oh my god okay uh hemlock is feels the cold stone on their face
uh and what does the stun is it like a like a taser stun or like a frozen in time
it's like a frozen in time son I don't think I'm trying to hurt them I think it's just
a freeze okay okay well they're like what I don't really think that's a good
and they are frozen yes their opinion does not matter right now what did you do
they're fine they will be fine they are simple done for a little bit of time did you just use
magic on another witch they are not a witch like me we are not the same witch no it doesn't matter
it's a cult of ethics thing you don't use magic on another witch what are you doing I have cursed
so many witches in my day bliss please what is she going to do what are what what what what he
he he did what what what what did they all of them okay uh whatever they
sorry I got ripped up on the characters I did um
um uh I'm sorry I totally derailed uh um
then what are they going to do well nothing now because you've done I don't know what
it's just a stun they are frozen for now in a few hours or minutes I'm not sure which
they will understand everything will be fine either way we should take all the candles quickly
exactly can you um can you just roll a theo can you just roll 1d6 for me
all right let's see use my skull dice I don't know how long three three okay that is that means
the world that I make is going to be measured in minutes instead of hours for how long they are
frozen they are frozen for the next four minutes whatever you have to do you have four minutes
get the candles in the run or or we just snip all the wicks but then they can just cut like it's
much better if we just take them but it takes work to get to them and then we can get to them
getting to the wicks that you are planning to do please do it it's going to take too long to
clip the wicks we just grab them smash and grab smash and grab fine fine fine fine fine fine fine
you guys are smashing these candles are cutting the wicks off of these candles
handle destruction is my friend I want I do want a candle destruction roll from everybody
destroying candles I refuse to destroy candles as in as a one your witchcraft is soft if you need
candles for it is there anything like uh is there like a radiator or anything like that anything hot
the candles yeah you just light all the candles on fire there is like a vent system um if you
want to try and are you trying to melt them yes I'm trying to melt all of the candles okay I will
say it's going to take longer than four minutes to do that but if you want to sort of set them up
where they can be melting yeah there's like a there's like a radiator I have an eight beautiful
I got a seven okay okay twins are going off so the twins decide to stone a man and destroy all
of his candles this is mostly successful the rest of the candles are sitting on a radiator
and those just have time um hemlock is completely unaware when they come back into the timeline
a good idea I maybe if there's something else that could be done sure I just I don't think that
that's like I understand thank you for your time yeah why are you guys all out of breath
oh I have breathing difficulties yes we're just generally very out of shape very out of practice
okay well good luck with that bless I'll see you later I'll see you later hemlock
I'll buy a weak little bitch
wait what I kiss hemlock on the head as I walk away okay as you walk away I think
now that hemlock is not in customer service mode sees the shit y'all did and you see
you hear a what unless there's anything else to do before we cut to passage
it's a good thing that we are done with this mile do you know how much you know how hard it
will be to find another candle distributor for me whatever you gotta find a plug you can go to
the little little church boy and you can scare him into giving you candles
thank you it's much more fun that way bless
shoot is that should that be our passageways going there
you can't I will say that was that was pretty quick if you want to I'm going to cut to the
other team and then if you want to hit up I would say we duck sense and hail satans right next to
Benedict's shop we'll just like just immediately jump in there so if hemlock like runs out
we're not a lot of look at the Jesus job yeah I think what happens is we're running past the
window and we look and we see there's more candles in there and then we do detour
okay as that happens I think um let me sorry let me get my notes together because I did not expect
you to just smash and run
leaning over the counter like peaking in a concerned way is benedict in st. Sebastian's
catholic gifts um hey are you guys what the fuck was that they are you're so loud
um keep your voice down man how many candles do you have in this store
wait what like what yes candles there's a lot of them there's one for a bunch of saints I don't
know they're all the place there's like 30 I don't know okay benedict listen to me very closely
you and I are friends yes
you told me you told me about the john of the foreman and for that I am forever in your debt
but now I must ask another favor of you my friend
okay you must forfeit to us all of your candles for safekeeping lest your store be pillaged and
destroyed I am just trying to protect you my friend is this this is like are we playing like pillage
is this is not a game you play
it's a it's a good game I don't know if you guys have tried it
are we playing pillage he like turns it to look at you benedict this is no time for games
it's okay no okay okay real pillaging fine I'll go get the candles and they go bring them they just
bring a small collection of what they have outside okay what the fuck
here you have to pay for these oh no what do you mean no you're just like cat like bat one out of
their hands no no stop breaking the candles they they're what is happening some someone explain
your god cannot help you here listen listen benedict isn't it isn't it the part of of your
church's principles that you should help those in need yes well we are in need of candles
okay so buy candles that's not your what your your jesus of the christ wasn't super into this
whole capitalism thing so why don't you just give us the candles benedict benedict if if you
don't give us the candles I'm gonna have to haunt the store again you remember last time
it took months we had to bring in you had to bring in baptist and I'm I'm it's it's yeah and
since then I've gotten even more powerful and do you not see the amount of candles I have in my hands
okay no that's it's weirdly a lot of candles okay yeah a lot of power so I give you the I give you
the candles and you leave the store alone and don't come in here demanding candles again well
we can't make those promises there won't be any candles left so that you don't have to worry about
this okay but no more of this kind of pillaging they're kind anytime but no more of this I think
you need a better name than pillaging thank you benedict
as we're running out I grabbed one of the switchfoot cds from the counter
we have I could get you never mind okay I love you over the mirror I guess
I'm pillaging with my brother you must be stronger than this use a weapon next time
and I like hand them a rock chisel you hand benedict a rock chisel
yeah yeah I do okay all right I guess okay get out please okay I think we got I think we got the
ball I think you have successfully cleared them all out of candles we will wipe to our other team
who is where did you guys say you were going we're going to bears we got to go up the stairs
and stuff for the the elevator I think I have an idea guys I could if we come across another
of these uh I don't know why I keep calling them sprites but you know these fucking girl scouts
these glitter scouts glitter scouts um I could dress as a glitter scout and maybe try to get a
little espionage a little insider information as to what they're up to oh shit yeah your little
petite frame would fit in very well with a bunch of 14 year old girls I mean it's better than nothing
right like do you the both of you are bigger than me I was agreeing yeah I know it didn't sound like
I was totally in favor no I was just only concerned because you're so you're not you need to have more
purple we need to get you into lots of purple don't worry about it I've got plenty of stuff in my
backpack no no yes I'm gonna start changing into a glitter scout to try to prove to them
that I can look like a glitter scout how successful are you can you can you roll I believe you have
a modifier yeah I've got a costume of three so let's see yeah see you'll play a role well oh man I
rolled like shit uh a six total six total okay um describe what you do with what's what's available
to you be creative and describe how you uh assimilate glitter scout culture um I think
I pull out a lot of stuff in my backpack that is like you know costuming for theater and stuff and a
lot of it has glitter and sequence on it so I maybe there's like a uh a you know a necktie or
something like that that has glitter on it that I wrap around like a pretend sash and I put my
backpack on my head like they're don't don't glitter scouts have like hats or something like that um
and uh I I do the thing where I put my shoes on my knees so I'm a lot shorter and I'm just kind
of like shuffling around um and as long as they don't look behind me they won't see that I have
my legs in the ground but um yeah I'm gonna try to act like a glitter scout and uh enter
bears and if I see one I'll approach them
incredibly shit Lenore pretty good right yeah I really just like one
I think it's the uh the knees is an interesting choice but yeah I'll let this play out this is
why I got a scholarship to uh Juilliard if that's a place that you go for theater text you go to
well you're going to Juilliard that's just a weird place for schooling but no shit you got into
Juilliard don't yes yes I did I mean yeah yeah well no we're both we're both gonna be on the east
coast how do you guys do it the two of you like this whole like you know splitting up thing like
it's driving me and feel crazy what do you mean east coast and splitting up uh oh you guys haven't
talked about it no we're doing fine we're doing just great we're very good with each other and it
will be fine uh east coast is another part of the mall ah it's there's another place I have not
explored here yes it's like yeah I can show you the east coast of the mall it's over by lemon
Theodosius you'll love it it's very far ah I look forward to the east coast I give a look to Lenore
like please yeah I think like as B walks past this I'm like oh my god you haven't even I mean I
guess I can't judge you because I haven't really had the conversation I tried to have the conversation
with Theo but it's like talking to a rock they really not very emotional
yeah yeah bb's sort of like a rock with more in the body type yeah but you're like into that kind
of thing like I am I am yeah it's just I don't know I feel like I'm splitting up not just from the
gods but like this place I mean we can't be in an interdimensional mall where we're trapped forever
forever right yeah surely we'll leave for college at some point yeah it's not like we could live the
rest of our lives trapped here forever and never be able to leave this place no no no don't talk silly
Lenore did you ever get worried that maybe we're gonna outgrow the people we love and
that we may have to leave somebody behind oh my god apex you always have to say the loud part
out loud or the quiet part out loud fuck I mean yes that's my whole thing
look can we make a pact or something like a goth pact to like
well you're gonna tell our significant others the truth and go on with our lives oh shit a goth
pact are you for real yes I'm I'm invoking a goth pact Lenore you know that means a fucking
shitload in the goth community that's like and all be all that's remind me of the time that we found
that big pile of shit you remember that yeah no I think that's when you and I were at our closest
with that big pile of horseshit yeah yeah good good times all right all right let's let's fucking
solve this mystery so we can save them well first we gotta take our goth pact and he reaches into his
uh like I guess bag I don't know pocket uh it takes out a knife and cuts himself immediately
he has it at the ready he's just bleeding profusely from the hand it's almost too much and he gets
shocked oh shit quick hurry oh fuck um uh hold on I I have some duct tape here and I'll like duct
tape his arm um no we gotta touch blood to blood we gotta get our goth pact I'm gonna take knife
and just like pretend smear like some blood in my arm like like I cut myself like all right here
we go blood pact oh quick I'm getting woozy I invoke I got packed as you say that you hear a
gruff um large bear of a man come towards the the counter excuse me none of that is allowed in here
what are you doing what are you doing sorry goth pact rules can't tell you it's a quick goth pack
that's all okay well don't fucking cut yourselves in my store I'm sorry sorry you gay dar gay bar
I'm gay bar hey gay bar um get our back there yeah no I've seen you guys around this yeah yeah I'm
gay pecs oh I guess I'm gay nor you can call me gain or okay this is gay bb okay I understand
what's happening you don't have to do this in the store to be able to be in the store what do you mean
okay gay pecs so listen gay bar we um we are probably going to have to battle these
sprites tonight these little glitter shits so a little purple bitches this one running around
yes are there any this one right now by the way oh roll roll for me 2d6 yes that's nine
not that you can see okay well we need to arm ourselves up we know that this is the place to
find anything glitter fight or you know sequence fight so that's correct you got anything thicker
than than wolf's hide what we got one thing and he goes back behind the counter and pulls out um
um okay so this is our soda harness it is uh sort of a chest plate that is made of recycled soda
cans it is as sparkly as glitter but not as fucking disgusting and sort of get everywhere ish um but
this will sort of protect you for most things I imagine gay sticky is that joint yeah I mean
we host it off gaby do you like the uh all the the soda cans I think maybe this would be a good
armor for you I was looking around at all the letters like uh huh is there anything else you
might do you have something that we could just do I heard them I heard this thing called glitter
bomb so like Kim do you have where we can just throw it at them as well oh well yes we do have
glitter bombs but I want to make sure that you are all aware this isn't something that would
make these babies run away this is like this is like a moth to a flame type stuff they love that
shit ah ah it could be a lure then that's the thing okay then we descend on them and we kill their
asses and we trap them wow put them in cages or something okay we could sell them okay I'm gonna
okay well I'm I don't I like to treat you guys you guys are teens I like to treat you guys as adults

you kids have said a lot of weird shit a piece of leather is the most normal thing you've asked for
from this store I will be right back and he goes to go get a piece of leather it is I used to do that
as a kid it's just like take a little sling and just throw rocks and hits people in the head I love
when you tell me about the old country BB it's so nice did I tell you that the Visigoths we actually
were the ones that created what did you say your Olympics that would be us that created
really wow that's right there's a lot more culture than I thought so everyone else tried to
take an abliment on us now we were the ones who created it we created the real competition
it's just originally we didn't give out medals you just died that's not true that's not true oh
shit I'm gonna believe it is true guys you know I think I've been thinking about this whole thing
between me and Theo and I'm worried that the reason Theo doesn't even care is because I'm not
like I've changed I don't know if you guys have noticed like you know I've been going to therapy
and stuff like that like you know my parents found my slam book and I got in trouble for always bullying
people so I don't know I've learned a lot of tactics to be a better person but I don't know
if that's working for me maybe I need to just go back to being the same loner I was before you
know just like a big bitch I like who you were you are just great you're saying I should go back
to the person I was well you always were a bitch you didn't really change you say you and I after
all my therapy I'm still a bitch I mean that's kind of who you are you just you just say what you
like and just say it from your chest and I like if it's fair you're like a bitch with way better
communication like you got more tools to be a bitch which I think just makes you better and you
don't bitch too weak links that's just a being a bitch if you're going to be a bitch be a bitch to
a bitch does that make sense alphas fight alphas you don't fight bates that's just
bb shit alphas fight alphas that's what you need lino like consider this man if if you
got to come down the O's level then you're going backwards now forwards and that's how you get stuck
in the mall so I got to be an alpha bitch alpha bitch that's my bitch
all right yeah like that's enough of that and they bring the strip of leather you ask for
ah yes okay that's that's it right you guys are good because you've been
hold on wow hold on what where's gay dark he's in the back you want to go get him bring him out
I want to meet him oh my god okay gay war comes back goes in the back gay dark comes out
what's happening hi what can I do for any of you that have been so loud I just want to know
what you were like before I left zikia's game it's our first time in here good to meet you gay dark
thanks that's it you just want to see my face that's it just want to know what you sounded like
are they both like bears or are they both uh they're both bears they are I'm gonna go shake
their hand I was like I heard a lot about you and I just wanted to meet the the bear well wonderful
to meet you I'm I'm usually just doing inventory but I'm here this that's it I'm gonna go back to work
then hey um before you go gay dark gay bar uh you guys are together right or is that really presumptuous
just based on their names no no it's bear for bear over here okay good that's what I thought
and do we children as bears by the way what the fuck did you just ask me well like that
that bears they kill and eat people in the woods like you heard her question answer her question
we don't eat children okay sick sick I I got a little follow-up what's this secret gay dark gay bar
uh of like just keeping a relationship together because obviously Lenore and Theo are having a
lot of problems yeah and they're the only ones that are having problems and no one else in this
little group is having a relationship problem please solve our you could solve our relationships magical
gay people please yes they need Lenore needs a lot to help sometimes a wolf needs to hear from their
bears you see you see gay dark just sort of like lean on to gay bar um and they sort of look at each
other like oh I understand um and gay dark goes the key is being almost aggressively honest with
one another while being soft like sometimes um gay bar thank you gay bar will just be upset right
and we have it as an agreement between the two of us where if he's upset he could just pick me up and
sort of just John Cena neon at the ground and I find it incredibly exciting um and then that's how
we know to sort of have discussions but it's about being honest and knowing what works for each other
like you're a dog right so with wolf I'm sorry I'm sorry baby you're a wolf right so if there's a
problem with the pack then it should usually be discussed as a pack yeah I get that John Cena bit
I get the pack bit but like what did you do when gaydar went off to MIT without you
um is that a euphemism for something no it's just what did you guys do please
answer that directly uh well I won't speak to that because that never happened but there was
one time where gaydar had to go to a so gaydar was really into like mushrooms and they went to
like a mycology conference for a minute and that was really hard would you refer to the mycology
conferences maybe like MIT so I could follow okay so they had to go to MIT and that was really hard
for us but then we just sort of FaceTimed while they were there and we were honest about it and
and you guys are all adults right sort of yeah pretty much okay well sometimes when you get a
little sad and being alone you just gotta go outside and fuck somebody and we just sort of let ourselves
do that oh okay that sounds actually very good I was sorry I wasn't really paying attention I was
taking notes by my hand you said aggressively blank and then soft what was that again honest
honest thank you you want to be honest you know if you if you don't think that you can just sort of
keep it together while the other person's away 100% just sort of let off steam somewhere else and
come back together damn as long as everyone knows what's going on these are really rubbing again I'm
I'm starting to realize all these kinds of conservative values I have about relationships so
how this is like this conversation is affecting me oh yeah these really these bears really shook
up my worldview yeah well thanks gay darn bar yeah for sure they both say at the exact same time
yeah and so this so I want to say this name correctly John Cena is
is he a warrior he he's a warrior as well I've heard that before oh he's the greatest warrior
there's ever been where could I find him he's very hard to see so I'm not sure we'll show you the
show on television surprised apex hasn't shown you yet actually I was really worried she'd break my back
yeah those suplexes look like they hurt oh yes if there's a John Cena show I would love to see
yeah okay we can show you baby oh great dude we is there anything else I can do for you
no you already sort of taught us the secret to love yeah we're good
happy to help do you transform into bears at all during like full moon no get out of my store please
that's please leave thank you oh my god apex now like you have to talk to be about this you know
I mean because the gays told us to oh man you're right oh we both got to like make forward progress
in our relationships before we lose them all oh I mean I know I don't like the thought of Theo
just like boinking somebody else so I don't know I'm I think I'm leaning towards like the whole
breakup thing oh Lenore I think you might be right I think it might be healthy for you you're going
in like a whole different physical direction and like Theo's not really a theatrical person
not at all you need to find you Jonathan Graw first love hurts yeah what are you guys gonna
think we're what are you gonna do I think I gotta tell baby and hope to god that she's with me and
tell me what oh wait wait because I was like did you guys were like sitting right in front of
me or did you guys walk ahead of me I love that we're just sitting right in front of you
and it's like because I blend into the wall yeah I was so still you didn't see me oh shit um I'll
let you guys have a moment tell me what baby I want you to know we show we're good for poor
and then my leg starts kicking
listen yeah baby that feels really good but I gotta talk to you about something something for real
I got this letter and I know sometimes you have trouble reading so I'll read it out to you
and he takes out the envelope from his bra and he begins reading the MIT acceptance letter
and basically what this all means is that like the space people you know stars
yes stars want me baby and they're not going to take no for an answer
is this like uh that movie you showed me with the like aliens right that's what you mean by stars
right yeah what's the corny weaver that's it exactly like that movie so you're going you're
going up is that I'm confused for four years to MIT in space
baby this might mean a lot for us I want you to know I've so enjoyed every year that I've been at
the end of your leash and when you callered me in front of my father and it made him stop talking to
me for quite a long time wait it changed my life wait why are you sounding like this okay so you go to
new oh I'm still sorry Amira it's okay she's accidentally smacked your cat it's my sister's cat
I didn't smack her I with yeah I'm so sorry hold for cat um she's been with me well this way
um so you're just gonna go to like okay you go conquer and you I don't get it what's
is the problem this is a good academy right this is you go to space you go to space to
stare right what's your answer apex listen listen uh there's this thing about the mall
where like you're gonna be stuck here forever and like this is the only place that you exist
within liminal space and um you can never leave here because you're like you're 2000 years dead
and stuck here you know so it it might be a little complicated when I go to space
we're not gonna see each other for a long time
so did you just planning wait to go not you don't want me to go with you
or thought of it wow you want to come to space MIT with me I thought that's
what you were kind of asking but it sounds like you're not and I'm kind of now wait because
I thought that's what you meant by aliens you were bringing up aliens because we liked aliens
you know you wanted me to go with you but I know how much you love that scene when the chest
hugger escapes that man's chest and kills everyone in the room it was the cutest thing ever it was
just so just a door that's yeah I've always wanted to be your chest hugger but I don't know if you
can come with me I don't know if we can escape this mall it's sort of the whole conceit of the game
is that we're stuck here I'll tell you this if you just broke up with me to be alone in a mall
forever that's a big mistake on your part but if we can leave this mall did you ask what I wanted to
do or did you just again like everybody else just assume that I have just gone off the rails and not
do anything and it's like oh friend Hilda you no longer visit goth because you're just wearing I
like colors and all this and I guess that doesn't mean you I you know I try to be like you know live
in my environment but you just leave okay that's fine shit BB you're right I haven't taken any of
your emotions or feelings into consideration in this decision I just assumed that all of this was for me
there's wrong I have the hiccups I'm sorry
BB you just have I just feel very well you didn't even ask me what I thought
what if we could make this right what if I could ask you now
well you and he he kind of moves in and if she allows he kind of nuzzles up against your neck
and starts purring gently like this cat is purring
thank you listen BB I haven't asked before but um what do you want to do
I
I
brain health
and there's a goth
of the giants yes
I wanted to be
a stuntwoman I wanted to go to the gladiators of America
and destroy all of the supposed champions that's what I wanted I wanted to go rain terra and bring
you along but that's that but if we can do that in space that means we could take over the world and
beyond but if you don't want that then fine honestly this is coming from left field I never
once thought you were going to name drop American gladiators but I'm so fucking here for it well
what else was I like you were showing me everything I saw the I saw the star wars I saw the twilight
I saw the the buffy of the vampire slayers uh friends I have how you doing I'm doing good
I was Joey don't share food so we don't share food Joey don't share food
and bril hindak does not share apex and apex doesn't share brunette on
he's a good boy I'm gonna pick him up by the way and he's if you can wrap his legs I'm gonna hold
like hold ice fully straddle around brunhilde and while this while this war crime is happening
I'm gonna check in with you that was incredible thank you both so much
but I'm gonna check in we're gonna take that as your passageways because I think that happened
outside of the store um my other team is there anything you would like to accomplish in a passageway
see yes probably yeah okay I was gonna say you can give me a second uh I have the same way to
predict see um you can all have witnessed that because that happened outside of a store if you
would like to catch up I want to see maybe we're on the are we heading back up to meet everybody um
because I I want to say we saw this as we were going up the escalator I feel like we have like
one more scene that we could all do in different stores before we all get together for the final
scene okay maybe you can do one more okay we're still on the bottom floor for right now maybe we
can just like look up and that's just happening because it's just it got really loud um just
loud sobs from apex draw our eyes yeah yeah it's really nice that uh I'm like standing next to
Theo it's really nice that uh apex and b have such a good relationship after all these years
yes that is true love
and you and uh Lenore so lucky Lenore she she has the heart of a bard
yes yes that is the theater yes that is that and you are not
the heart of the bard all right well you say so you're saying you don't dance
I do not dance no no no no I dance on the battlefield you can dance if you want to
you can leave your friends behind
hmm well Lenore likes to dance
yes I've tried to dance for Lenore uh but you know it it it ain't no fun if the homies can't have none
I never know what that means when you say that but okay um well the snoop dog is a wise poet
I'm sure he is um also has glorious hair glorious hair
and a team for whom he speaks
so I don't know I feel like Lenore does not speak for any team
maybe maybe my heart will find her in the future but I do not think her heart is mine now
her heart is for the world you can't be with the world with Lenore
you're just going to spend your life in a mall the world that's a lot for
Theo Theo Dananda eat a little bit smaller you're saying Theo Dananda the person that
freezes people with stones in shed can't go outside
Theo Dananda has never tried to deck this close yes sister have you tried to go outside
no should we try it right now
hmm I'm not saying that's something that we need to to check off the box this instance but you
know there's a big flashing exit sign right there what I'm saying is that Lenore is prepared
to go out the door and is willing to be fearless about it while they're talking I'm walking towards
the door but you know you could do it too well my my battle is on the field of rugby
the field of rugby yes
like playing rugby or like I do not know the rules I just saw someone from a college
and they said you are strong you are violent but rugby is played outside
see this is the drama I don't know it sounds like you're making excuses and you're making Lenore
really sad about it and it just kind of brings the vibe down and I've been trying to have a good
summer you know I've been sorry I'm just gonna kind of like break off from this nice tone of
it I'm just trying I appreciate your kindness but truly I like the blunt speaking but fine okay
but you're fucking up your relationship with Lenore and if you want to keep that relationship with
Lenore and stop making Lenore look so sad and blue all the time because it's really a drag
and I have to go look for apex for entertainment and tell me let me tell you it is not as fun as
you think it is so if you really want you know the focus I'll see her in the next life kind of
she's here now so either break it off and let's get this band-aid over with or go out the door
with her and go do rugby because rugby is a college thing and you know you both could do that
you see what I'm saying do they have rugby at Julie's yard
I don't know honestly
but you can figure it out right I have been lying to Lenore oh
I have told her my heart is hers but it is not
and I do not know how to what is the word break this up
yeah yeah it's obvious you don't know how to do that I would just say be honest like be a friend
tell her that I do not love her that my heart is not hers
I feel you know poets have much eloquent ways of presenting arguments to people
I would suggest consulting the poets on this and maybe find something that makes it a little
bit more edible than my heart is no longer yours or I don't love you know because that just
that comes with feelings you could also simply murder her my hands on the door
there is that I would not hurt her feelings if I destroyed her body I will destroy you if you
hurt Lenore if anyone's going to destroy Lenore it would be me so yeah no um so yeah just um I
don't know what you have to do but do it and do it quickly because you know summer's running out
you know I'm doing this because I want to not because you're telling me to let's say that
if it gets the job done I'm going to go consult the poets be careful pushing the door open
does anything happen if you oh you're at the you're at the exit yeah like cobwebs on the door
I'm just pushing the door open excellent I should have known that this would come
and I should have known that it would come you are at the exit of the mall it is a set of like three
double doors traditional like glass wall you can see the outside there is mountains there's street
there's cars there's stop lights there's homes you push the door open and you feel
the wind the hot summer air you walk outside do you walk outside I'm not walking outside yet
but my hand is like out me like you know I pushed the door open and I may be like like from the elbow
down my hand is outside you can feel it's hot it's late August it's it's later it's kind of night
but it's still hot that's it it seems fine I don't see why we couldn't just walk out there
look my hand is still here it's my hand is still here right yes your hand is still here
you can see people parking and walking into everything is fine look the sun is shining
bright it is a beautiful day
do you do you leave them all not yet
I feel like I feel like that it is it is still early and that would be potentially
a day yeah okay okay follow your heart follow your heart whenever you want to
exit the mall you have every right to do so but if you don't we will go to scene five
um we sounds like we're gonna split the party again where are we looking it does look like
we crossed out we did absolutely cross out candles from the list we should go to games we
should go to number six the uh the dark aid okay yeah that's left all and um what can
what store do you guys want to go to for games you said dark aid okay sweet is that everybody
or are we splitting um well is there other places that we have to go food you know food
so I will say you did see um uh floppy joe and feta are both working on food
so if you want to go back to those places you can but you have already seen like if you're if
information gathering is the priority you've seen what's going on here I'm still dressed like a
girl's glitter scout I need to hand out this stupid armor then I guess we all meet up then right
or play golf for games too could go to play golf for games we need to know what these little
fuckers are doing before our last scene so yeah I think being all together is is better
that's fine I think what we do is we follow whatever trail of glitter we find to the closest
glitter yeah let's do what we're selling oh my god this is like this is like that time and we
were finding the scent remember we got led outside to the horseshit we're just talking about it with
apex what good times that was you guys remember we stole those ponies and my dad just owned me
that was great you do not need to follow you only need the wolf pack and you have one yeah
let's do a last thing we do in passageways let's do a team glitter check I need everybody to roll
2d6 and add whatever modifiers you think are relevant but feel free to explain them if I use
haunt can I contact the spirits to find me a glitter scout yes you can
or I'll put a pin in that but yes you can apex uses his rockets to wire into the surveillance
system of the mall and use hack electronics nice to try and find some glitter scouts that's a nine
for me okay Theo elevates once again to look down on them I know what they look like I'm going to use
costumes to try and find them oh I'm sorry 11 because I have a five a four plus two yeah 11 I
have an 11 as well I haven't eaten 11 I have a nine I rolled a four four what would you say
five excellent okay um if your combined roll can meet the mall then I will say that you have
what it takes to get to I'm just going to use a calculator because my brain there
oh is that a quick question yes so I can control animals and it says I cannot control humans in
fursuits but since these are little like demon kids are they considered animals
very very good question um I will say
as of now as you understand it children are not animals got it but I'm not going to shoot that down
got it I don't think so at all that's not a no it's not a no is not a no but um you guys did
absolutely beat them all um you can see a clear trail of glitter heading towards the dark aid
let's go we're headed back yeah excellent you all head in the dark aid there are several things
you see when you get there the first thing of course is um Seiko who is a um sort of
mixed Guatemalan and black um boy with a shirt with three wolves on it uh he is terrified out
of his mind and just sort of standing behind the counter you see scout master pebble who is
against the wall hanging some sort of poster that only seems relevant to the glitter scouts it is
of course covered in purple puffy paint and glitter um with the same sort of like double talk
that made the shopping list you see three or four glitter scouts that are already
losing their minds the mall has started to close which means it's their time they are getting rowdy
in this arcade um and you also see a woman in the in the back sort of against the wall
just surveying all of this and she looks very well off she looks put together she doesn't look scared
um but these sort of separate things are all happening at once what do you guys do first
god they've already started the ritual we must stop them well they don't have any candles that's for
them sure they got taco what do we do what do we do uh that one in the back that one i'm going for
that one okay i'm gonna like not like be i'm just gonna like work my way through the arcade
okay be your be letting for the woman in the back anyone else going with you well apex is
still straveling be he has not stopped this whole way through ah yes i must drop you sorry good
oh he's gonna stay on your chest for as long as you let him
scare you across i'll hold you as long as you want to be held like yeah go down anyone
he goes with you to chase this woman you got this baby killer ass destroyer killer and her life
make sure she's dead forever i shall tear into ass yes
ah well you better go with her i'm just gonna approach the front counter
i'm gonna become indigable excellent uh linor where you going i'll go with bliss to the front
counter okay beautiful um we'll do the front counter first feiko is uh like i said absolutely
terrified just watching this um hey hey guys what what can i do are they starting their evil ritual
in here is that what's going on there they're doing something weird i've never seen it before
i've never i mean i've seen hyper kids right there in here all the time but this is something
else is there what's sorry well what's written on the um poster that they put up
it's you see um it's continued double talk but it's uh
vedicamunica willica risica adicagenica so the moon will rise again what could that mean
yeah huh oh they plan to bring the moon gods here they'll werewolves or something
guys i don't know if i can be around here when the moon rises you know how i get
look i can split them up right now i've got a bag full of fireworks still that i could just
throw at them do you do you think that'll help i mean we don't we don't care we have a vacuum
like do whatever you need to do i mean bliss you cool with that i'm i'm just gonna light them up
slide them up yeah i'm gonna take like one of those long strings of firecrackers and line
line up one end and throw it at them get out of here you little glitter shits just throw it at them
um you throw you throw bombs at children and uh roll for me and add your um i don't know i think
you only have add a plus three i have i have a plus two pyro techniques but i'll take a plus three
yeah there you go alpha bitch alpha bitch that's seven total incredible alpha bitch
i will say of the four glitter scouts you distract three of them uh you've littered this place in
glitter and they are like a fey to spilled rice just into it so i'll i'll run up to the one that
remains i'll be like hey i'm actually one of you can you tell me what you guys are doing
i just wanted to distract the other ones but you're the really the tough one that i wanted to talk
immaculate you turn around the this this little purple person turns around and it is
mazy from before and they are different i'm like sweating their hair recognize me
but you're different they look different they look different they are equally sweaty as you
which is helpful but they their hair is messed up they they're covered in different purple
like markers and glitter and shit um and they turn to you and their eyes are like
their pupils are so big it's like a sugar rush you've never seen hey do you have an ecstasy
connection what the what what's what's the deal here what like how do i get like you
you want to get like this you want this yeah sure okay you just wait you just wait okay
and so while i'm waiting what's the big plan what happens once we've all gotten like you
you stay around midnight comes and it'll all get real it's your first lock in right yeah
yeah yeah you smell fresh the moon comes out all right
it's like nothing you've ever fucking seen in your life and once this 12 year old says
fucking uh scout master pebble turns around and says none of that language now but their
pupils are also equally blown out and they are equally fucked up looking they're like sweating
in this dark aid um they're also like hunched over like a pinball machine
that is clearly like from a time that this is their their mall goff era activity um and they're
like it's it's almost time there is a table of like chili and cheese in the corner and this woman
again is still unbothered um they um mazy looks up at you and says do you know what to do do you
know what the plan is no tell me what the plan is okay so we wait till midnight right have you
been eating candy you've been getting strong right yeah i'm all popped up good get fucking stronger
right once it's midnight we're gonna find the air conditioner and we're gonna break it
and they fucking maniacally laugh you know like this is probably the scariest thing you've ever
heard you've heard like layered special effects on people like doing vl before this is way worse
okay so um sounds great um quick question for you though as a newbie why break the ac because
wouldn't that close the mall and don't we want to be the new heads of the mall but it's gonna close
the mall everyone's gonna leave right by the time the mall reopens no one even knows what the mall is
anymore and it's our time we'll get in and we'll take it over make it worse these stupid
goths will be gone by then school starting we can do whatever we want guess what i'm a bitch goth
i'm just gonna punch the kid in the face oh my god we're all gonna put content warning on it
i might get an automatic hurt feeling i think what i engage in physical combat
yes yes uh fighting does automatically mean a hurt feeling for you and a hurt feeling for mazy
i yeah i'm i'm just like pushing her getting up off of my knees and running like a normal person
back to uh blitz to tell her what i've discovered i oh blitz is watching this well they're gonna
destroy the ac good well now we know and really linoar punching a child
i got swept up in the moment go find the rest of them
mazy's like covering her nose and is looking to her distracted uh glitter scouts and she goes
while this was happening i was doing something invisibly can i see if it happened absolutely
let's go what were you doing i since he was putting up the sign and doing his whole thing i was
hoping to um invisibly invisibly grab the pot of chili and dump it behind him so that he falls
when he tries to get away when pebbles tries to get away yeah brilliant um honestly
my boy is not at the top of this game go ahead and roll for me
ten perfect he rolled a six so uh you fully spill this
vat of chili onto the floor of the arcade um and when mazy says seize him pebble goes oh my god and
immediately banana peels slapstick comedy slips and it's like the people that slip and they fight
for their lives on the way down instead of just giving up this man almost pulls a muscle in his back
trying to fall can i can i take the spears of britney and just kind of just do a little like
leg flip to make sure he goes down yeah yeah you you trip his ankle that's it he hits the chili with
a depressing slap that carpet should not make and we're going to cut to those of you that were
approaching the women the woman in the back of the room she's up against the wall yo what are you
doing here this is this is my mall what do you mean what's your what is your name
i have a lot of names that's not really important uh but i'm i am the mall boss i suppose this is
what people call me here what are your names well that is not important since you won't give me yours
i won't give you mine what should i call him i'm apex bone now excellent thank you apex
you may call me britney okay and my name and i expect you to call me this in full
is to take this close say that back to me through dex is close it's not that hard
is your last name bitch or was that for me it is to you bitch oh bitch was for me
okay that's fine well i said yes to both but yes okay well miss bitch uh through dex is close
and apex what can i do for you but you don't look like glitter scouts neither do you you do
not look like a glitter scout you look like a creeper in the corner that's why i'm asking who the
fuck are you i'm not i'm in charge of the mall this is all mine everything you see is mine everything
the glitter touches exactly i'm just here to make sure that no one gets hurt too badly you're telling
me and then she looks you're telling me that you're mrs moll yes yes that's me and she
gestures to herself she's very much giving miss frissel she has like freckles and like
very extravagant sort of twie era fashion do they have anything on themselves like i don't
know bag or anything that they have like a like a gucci bag um but what are you what are you looking
see if they got weapons that's the only way oh yeah there's a it's a larger bag like it's not
like a purse this is a day back oh so that's a weapon uh reasonably inferable there's a weapon
name at least two stores if you're in charge of this place okay with the dark aid and
sebastian's catholic gifts i could name all the stores okay now what do you say on what do you
mean by own it belongs to me you have the title the deed what lord or baron assigned you this land
and prove it because i don't see it i could say it on the mall i don't believe that she snaps her
fingers and a scroll rolls appears out of thin air and unfurls in her hands that is a full like
illuminated manuscript deed well that looks great the official
shit bb you remember i told you about that clinton administration i think that's this
because they unravel the scroll what's the name on there that i see the name literally just says
the mall boss bitch all right so this is boss you're looking around did you like
you're okay with all of the you're okay with all of these people messing up your mall you're just
fine with that yes like i said i've been here since the mall first opened this is not the first time
a bunch of small color coordinated demons destroy the mall it opens up again and it's fine it's a
circle of life wow it's like the matrix are you're just under well what happens to us if once
this mall gets destroyed and closed exactly i don't i don't know i assume you guys are the
goths right yeah there's the two opposing okay so you're the two opposing forces that keep them
all together eventually more of you will come so we're not it you think you're the last ones to
be in the mall yeah sorry mall not oh i'm so sorry uh not unless someone destroys the mall
but if it lives on there will be more goths there will always be more goths
but not like us well not exactly but close enough yeah listen it's nothing to be sad about it's just
natural you can always come back it's just it's time for a new generation i i think i literally
can't leave this area too much oh did you try to leave did any of you try to leave i put my hand
out of the door and look at me i'm fine so you'll forgive me if i'm a little skeptical of your whole
shtick did you walk outside no but look my arm is still here yes you were in the mall your soul
was in the mall i'm gonna go ahead and walk out i'm gonna like stare for a second and not move and
i'm gonna go ahead and just go and start walking out towards the exit where where's where's she going
i want to say something baby what are you thinking i'm gonna say something what if you like straight
up die like instantly fucking die what does lady tell you curious and uh i'm gonna go ahead towards
the exit she's the boss what she said what happens if b walks out that door i don't know i
think we all like poke our heads out the store to see what happens i'm gonna go ahead and go
i'm gonna go ahead and i will see because uh you walk out the ball because i'd be like
well i want to go to these coasts i have to go with that so i have to leave
anyone can leave them all whenever they'd like is that what you're doing can i come back in
if you come back you won't be the same as when you left
ah well you can leave you'll come back you'll see your friends again but you will be changed
i do want to say i am still kangaroo pouched on my woman so both of you are leaving
if bb decides to go then that's when we go we gotta go to space i won't go until you want to go
well we don't have to go now we can go later i think if we're not the only ones if we're not the
only goths and we got to do what we got to do for our goth time in our garth world so we got to
stop these stupid little fucking 12 year olds we got to kill every last one of them
are we doing our own final night final night final night final final village
burn the place to the ground burn it on the ground okay let's go back in let's go kill let's go
defeat the children and then we can go leave ragnarok sorry i just want to clarify one of them
b did you clap your hands and yell final night
no yes you did i just want to make sure you're standing by your behavior yes i am
is that what you did excellent i forgot is that a thing that we do here and i realize it is it's
about to be a thing um so you did i'm so sorry guys the mall i love it this is the mall as we've
known what a beautiful place we're in right now the mall as we've known is been filled with mall
goths and physics goths like you say final night theo says pillage and you you feel like a telepathic
connection of every vizagoth in the mall going pillage pillage pillage do you approve do you
say pillage back pillage oh my god dang i'm still a vizagoth dang you smell fire
almost immediately oh no almost immediately you smell fire you hear things being thrown around
as people are closing it is the last like 10 minutes of people's shifts it is natural to burn
down the store that you're in at the end of a retail shift people have to actively resist this
but you have given them permission with your pillage command and they are burning down the mall
yes the mall glitters guys i don't think the ac is gonna stand up to this this is our this is really
it now what is everyone else doing the mall the mall boss just looks around and says this could
have happened at any time yeah honestly yeah i think i'm sitting with my goth friends um my mall
goth friends that um just kind of like you know they've they've told me what they learned from
the mall boss and i'm just like i don't know i guess maybe we just hang out and drink an orange
julius until this all blows over yeah yeah i i think i spend a lot of time near bliss and uh
lenore but i do think apex is trying to bite every nearest 12-year-old as often as he possibly can
you know i'll probably try to sling a glitter bomb at one or two yeah we're just but we're not we're
not putting any real effort to it we're just like we're drinking like halfway through the killings
mayday role play does not endorse the does not endorse the murder of children
i'm just like glitter bombing of them
children are not being children are still alive they're being incensed by glitter or
potentially knocked out by abiding the shit out of them i'm doing like harley quinn birds of play
just like throwing glitter and just slow-mo hitting them and it's like exploding as as we
approach midnight our goths and visigoths are walking and enjoying smoothies as the mall burns down
around them and several feral 10 to 12-year-olds clad only in purple and glitter are feeding off
of this energy they are screaming shrieking throwing things having a blast and the mall
boss is just standing next to you all completely content wow that's i didn't expect it from all
of you but i'm so glad that it was all of you i guess we figured if we can't beat him join him
and just enjoy her last night you know yes you said it yourself exactly it was over so you must
leave for the people who come after yeah final night we all gotta grow up sometime in our thousand
year existence in the interdimensional liminal space that is the mall exactly i'm so glad you get it
shall we all go one last time and that will put us in passageways
oh before our final seas are they are they gesturing to the exit door
they they do start to walk towards the exit no it is the opposite side of the mall you're
gonna have to walk through the carnage that you have initiated but it's safe
Theo is actively throwing children and casting levitate on them and throwing casting levitate
on them hit Theo can i talk to you real quick while you're doing that yes of course
you can keep going you know i just want to say that you know i've it's been really nice
last couple years with you but i don't know i'm just not getting the feeling that you really
want to keep this going so i'm just gonna go off to school and we can be friends and it's really
not that big of a deal you know yeah that is okay i was not expecting to be with you for
the rest of my life if i'm being honest oh and i i totally wasn't expecting to be with you for
the rest of my life at all yeah totally um all right cool as the poets say moving on is easy
but what you leave behind is what makes it hard
from the taiga i knew that of course yeah all right cool yes all right well cool being in a
relationship with you let's make out carnage one last time oh yeah sure of course yeah right
we hardcore make out on the way as the fire is coming down slow mo i pull away every now that
uh little children floating around us beautiful i want to check in with um i imagine apex is still
on b yeah yeah still you could be chasing the kids or i haven't yeah we we've just been killing i mean
beating up 12 year olds this whole time okay i kind of just been throwing a lot of glitter bombs
it's just really pretty with the fire and all that so that's where it's like okay i i do think apex
is gonna first check in with the other goths he's gonna go to blitz and lanor once we we get some
time away he rushes up and he's he's just he's got a two 12 year olds in each hand uh and as he
comes up to him he just fuck it up from all gets up close to the two of you he's deep and heavy
breaths guys holy shit this is great right we always know how to make it go out with the bank
yeah he's a good style yeah listen i just wanted to tell you both that like for a while there it
really mattered to me that i was number nine out of a three person group you worked hard you worked
hard to where you got you know yeah i was thinking earlier today it kind of sucks i never got to
number two but like i realized i don't really care i like being the third of us i like being with
all of us i love both of you and i know that our time and whatever the fuck this was is coming
to an end but i don't think i would have spent it with any better people than i would with you two
i look at uh blitz and i look at apex i'm like look if it's any constellation you're always the
number one number three person in my heart same that means so much to me i don't really understand
it but it means so much hey you know i'm also going to be on the east coast too so we could
totally hang out yeah you two should totally come up to our space station it has a mall in it
blitz you could ride your your broom it just i'm going to the east coast too so yes we're
gonna see each other we're just not gonna see each other as often yeah i just i'm gonna miss
you constantly put me down and hurt myself esteem and make me think differently about myself in
the mirror well this is facetime exists and i can always call you if you need the occasional
put down i if that's what you need you know that's true what so you call and you'll tell me i'm lumpy
yes that's what number ones do it's fine i almost got you all right this is way too much emotions
for a bunch of gods can i visit gods how are you doing i i'm going to approach the others with a
child hanging at the end of britney spears but it's but wait it's nothing like i'm not killing them
i'm just giving them to god i've got to be careful no no no it's a super wedgie i have them by the
good yeah so i'm watching them wiggle i'm like check this out i think i have created a new ultimate
megatonic pyro wedgie that is violent now watch this yeah i'm gonna flip into the exit

hercy exit they're fine i just throw them throw them through
do you throw them through well no what happens
yeah through yeah they're going outside everyone's leaving so throw them out
oh my god please roll 2d6 for me everybody or just amanda amanda is hercy oh but wait
i have a 10 because i have a point in spear immaculate immaculate
oh jesus christ so you throw you throw this 12 year old
through a door they leave oh man gang okay i we're already gonna i'm gonna have to
build the trigger warnings so it's fine they you throw them through it and as the door opens
that they're automatic doors so they sense the warm body coming to towards the door the door
opens and as soon as their body leaves the building they sort of um turn to dust like uh like the snap
and they're gone and we'll say for everyone's hearts that it is not deaf that it is not painful
but they are gone it kind of just seems like they sort of teleported somewhere else
whoa um at that the mom boss says oh no um they were not supposed to be the first ones through
the door we were sort of um i'm gonna start it again and it's gonna be right i don't know where
they went but we won't it won't be that i thought we were gonna go through first yes like that
matters becomes obsessed and starts throwing more excuse me but what why what whoa whoa
where did they go if i could pile on through digs as close as now running around to the mall
trying to whip all of the other vizagoths into throwing kids out the door amazing everyone
that's throwing kids out the door can you please roll to these oh i was waiting for miss malls like
actual explanation that's what i was thinking the rules the rest of us just want to have fun yeah
while you all are rolling she explains uh so like i like you all seem to understand them all is its
own dimension but when you leave um most people don't have a choice of where they go i decide where
they go uh i didn't decide for them i decided for us so i don't know where they went oh they probably
they probably went where you wanted us to go so do you want us to go get them and throw them back
we should go through that door as kids are going through the door they are all sort of like
fading away of brand-news let's confuse guys are we throwing the children are we getting the
children i just wanted to keep on theme we're just heading mall bosses we should probably stop
throwing the kids i mean like they're not dying but i don't know where they go yes let's let's what
apex apex it's it's too easy they're just children we have to actually aim higher sorry sorry i just
toss them aside shall we go are we okay yes let's go save those little shits sorry for breaking
