At least there's still stuff, I guess!

But oh, yeah. That kinda stinks.

[killies]

It's just doing what the tattoos were doing, but even worse.

[mygod]

It is annoying...

Maybe we can be hermits for a week!

[killies]

That's kind of always the goal...

[mygod]

But it never works, huh...

It's a little scary, having people see you, right?

[killies]

It's just unnecessary.

[mygod]

[ ... ]

Do you want to go and get bad gas station food with me?

[killies]

Yeah, alright.

[ honestly? gas station food sounds pretty good right now. yeah yeah yeah fresh vegetables last week. whatever. she is a teenager.

anyway have a memory or whatever. ]

[mygod]

[ fucking help

well. they were on the way to the gas station. ]

... you got captured by a lab?

[killies]

[ y...ay... ]

That's where I was before getting pulled here, yeah.

[mygod]

The fungus thing sounds... really fake, you know.

[ just

that sounds so made up ]

[killies]

[ trying to hide that she is incredibly grateful and hopeful to hear that from someone else ]

You think so too?

[mygod]

Mmhm. I deal with a lot of like, researcher types, you know? And a lot of times, those people can be shady. The whole, "it's all in your head" thing is common.

[ they shake their head. ]

The whole setup is too suspect.

[killies]

They lied to us and said our parents were safe and informed of what was going on, but they aren't. They're locked up somewhere, too.

[mygod]

That's definitely too sketchy.

[ hmmm ]

Can other people besides you guys experience it?

[killies]

I don't think so. But they showed me people who were infected, like they said we are...

[mygod]

Hmmm, what were those people like?

[killies]

Like zombies...

[mygod]

Have you seen anything else like that?

[killies]

Not really. Not aside from the phantoms.

[mygod]

My best guess is that there's something about that place they know that you don't, but they likely can't experience it for themselves. So, they need to study you.

[killies]

Yeah, that makes sense.

It seems like there are some different factions, too. A group that wants to use us to take down the bigger group, but—we don't know what either of them really want in the big picture.

[mygod]

[ GOD. ]

... I would be careful about the other group, too. Are your friends okay?

[killies]

Yeah, I don't trust either of them. Maybe it's just about which one we can take advantage of.

[ and, well. ] ... None of us are doing great.

[mygod]

And the only way you can really find that out is by interacting with both of them...

[ messy. ]

Are you all still separated?
