ENDGAME

[kentucky_mcgiygas]

[A wall panel in the green room slides out of view, revealing an elevator. Get in it and it will take you down to the hotel (description here), where your fellow contestants - alive and ghostly - await.

You may spend as long as you want here, ordering up as much room service as you like, but when you're read to go home, you'll find that one floor (new to the current hotel occupants) has nothing but doors with your names on them. Exit, and you'll show up exactly where you were when you left.]

((THANK YOU FOR PLAYING EVERYONE. Ghosts, feel free to materialize and talk to people. You may now speak about your prizes.))

[ He stops and sits down right there on the floor. ]

[Sits down across from him, crossing her legs.] I really thought we were friends. I thought I could trust you. This isn't the first time I've died. I was murdered two years ago. My best friend found out, because it was her dad that was planning to kill me. And she died trying to save my life. She died all alone with no help, and it was too late because I was already dead. I didn't want to fight alone, or leave you thinking there was more you could have done for me. But that just turned into how you felt about it. How much it hurt you to have to deal with this. How it was so unfair of me to ask this of you. And yeah, maybe it was. But I wanted to plan it better. I didn't want to die alone again. You didn't ever even ask me if I was scared. That should have been my first clue. How much did you actually concern yourself with me other than being an inconvenience?

[jinglebros]

I thought about you all the time. How much it must have hurt you, how scared you must have been. But I suck at communication, so I didn't say any of it. That's on me. That's me being a shithead. I should have said it all. Maybe it'd have helped you live.

[ He shakes his head. ]

I don't expect you to believe me, not now. But I did think about those things.

[bluescreenofdeath]

Thinking about it isn't enough. You think and you think and you never take action. You never told me. You're suspicious of everyone around you and you lash out and hurt them before they can hurt you, even if they were never planning on it. Whether I believe it or not, I died thinking you didn't give a shit about me and valued your own feelings over my death. If I wasn't here as a ghost right now, you'd never get to tell me any different. Is this how you're going to keep going?

[jinglebros]

No.

I'm getting a new start and I plan to make teh best of it. That's why I'm separating myself from June - so I stop this. So I break our fucking cycle and we're both better people in the end.

[bluescreenofdeath]

Abandoning your sister is not going to make her a better person, it's going to make her abandoned.

[jinglebros]

You don't know what the hell she really is.

[bluescreenofdeath]

I also don't care. Maybe she's a god damn monster, but she's still your sister. Do you love her?

[jinglebros]

I love her more than anyone and anything. But I can't change it now.

[bluescreenofdeath]

[Stands up suddenly, furious!!] There's always time to change it!

[jinglebros]

I'M NOT GOING BACK THERE!!!!!!!!

[ Yells right back at her! ]

[bluescreenofdeath]

YOU DON'T NEED TO GO BACK, JUST VISIT YOUR SISTER!!!

[jinglebros]

AND HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO STIPULATE THAT?!?!

[bluescreenofdeath]

WELL GOSH SANTA WE'RE IN AN INTER DIMENSIONAL HUB THAT CAN TRAVERSE PEOPLE FROM ACROSS DIFFERENT REALITIES AND TIMES DON'T YOU THINK YOU CAN ASK A FEW QUESTIONS?

[jinglebros]

WELL THEN WHERE THE FUCK IS RONALD OR THE DOG BECAUSE THEN I WILL ASK A FEW GODDAMN QUESTION!!

[bluescreenofdeath]

GO YELL AT A SCREEN FOR THEM LIKE WE ALWAYS DO!

[jinglebros]

[ FINDS A SCREEN AND STOMPS TOWARDS IT ]

HEY, SON OF A BITCHES, COME OUT BECAUSE I HAVE QUESTIONS FOR YOU!!!

[the_macdonald]

[Summoned!]

Are you still here?

[jinglebros]

Shut up! Is there a way I can see my sister sometimes, or is this crap all over and done?

[the_macdonald]

If inter-dimensional travel is what you wanted, you should have asked for it!

I don't care if you want to take her through your door, though.

[bluescreenofdeath]

Did he specify NOT wanting to be able to visit?

[jinglebros]

...huh.

[ Santa thinks about that, then nods. ]

I'll see what I can do.

[bluescreenofdeath]

Gonna take her with you? A world is a big place so I'm sure you two can still find some space when you need it.

[jinglebros]

If she wants it.

I don't know if she will.

[bluescreenofdeath]

You two should really sit down and talk to each other about what you want.
