| |
|
| * ...overseas. with family. |
| |
|
| * Happy birthday, by the way. |
| |
|
* You got a party this afternoon, in case that slipped your mind.
* Not a roof-raiser, just a couple mates and a cake. You'll have a good time. |
| |
|
* i can't.
* i need to understand this. |
| |
|
| * Mate, whatever is you're fuckin' googling over there, I guarantee you: it can go on ice for three hours. |
| |
|
* Come on, mate, at least poke your head out.
* Venture outta this dank fuckin' shoebox you've made a cloister of.
* This place is a fuckin' mess, you've got fuckin'... |
| |
|
* ...Jesus, is that a plasma gun?
* Why the fuck do you have a plasma gun? |
| |
|
| * it was in cliff's ship. |
| |
|
* That's "how" you have a plasma gun, I asked "why".
* And what's that you're hunched over? A new modding project? This can't be that-- |
| |
|
* i am warning you, sunny. you can leave this room now, and live the rest of your life in blissful ignorance. you'll be better off for it.
* leave me be. |
| |
|
* Compelling proposition.
* Counterpoint: Fuck no? |
| |
|
* i'm serious.
* you really don't need to know. |
| |
|
* Yeah, I fuckin' do.
* Spill it. What's all that shit on your desk. |
| |
|
* everything we've ever done. everything we are. all of it.
* it's lines of code on cliff mason's game console. |
| |
|
* we're clockwork.
* we exist for someone's entertainment.
* here to make someone else feel better on a gloomy day.
* the amazing story of jasper the exorcist, on a magical journey to save the day, and we just facilitate it.
|
| |
|
* ...
* Yeah, I can see why you're freaking out a bit. |
| |
|
* excuse me??
* that's all you have to say??
|
| |
|
* Fuckin' sue me, orright, life's been taking some fuckin' turns as of late.
* I'm all filled up on jaw-dropping revelations. |
| |
|
* i don't think you realise what i just told you, sunny.
* you and i are fictional characters. we're NPCs!!!
* our entire existence revolves around jasper mundy's daddy issues!
* the only person who is even real in this entire town is american spaceman cliff fucking mason!
|
| |
|
| * If it eases your demons, I'm pretty sure he's "fictional" too. |
| |
|
* So, while I was on my little odyssey out in the fuck-knows-where, I met this freaky angel bitch, Nix.
* Delightful little shit, her.
* Anyway, she gave me the rundown on this videogame she was playing, about a brick shithouse space ranger cunt who kills a billion aliens...
* ...kept calling him "Cliff Mason". |
| |
|
* And the funny thing is, right, is that that angel girl?
* Got a feeling she wasn't precisely "real" herself.
* Cause, see, I met this fella in the world before that, top bloke actually you’d like him, name’s Jiro-- |
| |
|
* jiro??
* from jasper's game???
