Not where it mattered. Us being able to keep all our endings from our last games--that's all dependent on achievements. I was going to try and get some with a kill this week, but now-- [ sighs ] I'm just another scapegoat. That won't earn us anything.
[ she looks like she wants to say something, but she can't, quite.
instead: ]
You never know. This might get us something. You don't know that your extra kill would've gotten us anything, either. [ ... ] Still a pretty bleak outlook, though.
[ break the mood of our somber pre-execution pc by having vi spout some internet bullshit trying to dox a gy detail, flurry ]
Maybe it's bleak, but it's the truth. What kind of achievement would I even get for getting scapegoated like we've already done and gotten an achievement for before?
Could get one for scapegoating three times. [ ... ] That's not what I mean, though. You killing people for achievements isn't the only thing you're worth, man.
Is that really what you think? [ that makes her sad... and also there's a little thought share that's just like, general agreement. wispy little vibes of same, dude. ]
... You're just as worth it to know as anybody else here. Pain in the ass or not.
[ she leans a little closer, resting her elbows on her knees. ]
You remind me a lot of my brother. [ she says, finally. ] He was a snot. But he was smart, and he was inventive, and he could've done some crazy shit if he'd lived. He thought he had to prove himself to me for me to care about him, but he didn't.
You don't have to prove yourself either. Maybe you could use a little unconditional care, man. Someone to tell you your life's worth more than some fucking achievement on a board.
buddy... she scoots a little closer to the... bars? are there bars. i cannot be assed to open trial again to look at the holding cell description but she leans in, and if she can, she holds out a hand. just rests it on the ground. ]
If I'd been alive I would've told you that way earlier than this. Sorry that you made it this long without hearing it.
