[Week 4, Wednesday: Max]

[purrtagonist]

[sometime after the mission. . . well, someone is here to bug Max again. about the Noise problem]

Irrelevant to Players.

What about Reapers?

Comments

[concertmaster]

[squints at]

Yeah, and it sounds a lot like bullshit to me still.

[purrtagonist]

[he just]

[laughs]

Got me there. Caught, in the act of bullshitting.

[concertmaster]

That's like 75% of your personality, it's not hard.

[purrtagonist]

I resent that.







It's more like 85%.

[concertmaster]

That's what I get for being nice, I guess.

[purrtagonist]

You don't have to hold yourself back for my sake. I'm a big kid. I can take it.

[concertmaster]

You really can't.

[purrtagonist]

. . . hey. . .

What have I done to make you think that?

[concertmaster]

[ gestures at all of akira ]

[purrtagonist]

"Exist," basically?

[why]

[concertmaster]

Pretty much.

[purrtagonist]

[rude!!]

I'm a lot tougher than you give me credit for.

[concertmaster]

Yeah, sure, for people you don't like. You care a fuckton about what people think of you when do you like them, though.

[IS HE WRONG]

[purrtagonist]

[. . . . . NO. . . .]

Isn't that natural?

[concertmaster]

Jesus fuck. You're so good-natured it actually hurts me inside to talk to you sometimes.

[purrtagonist]

It isn't like I'm the kind of person who will do things just to get people to like me.

[concertmaster]

I didn't call you desperate, I called you "good-natured".

[purrtagonist]

I had to clear that up, just in case.

[concertmaster]

Because you don't want me to think you're desperate.

[just. proving his point.]

[purrtagonist]

[HEY SHUT UP]

I don't have any more questions for you, so let's hang out. Arcade?

I want to watch you get angry at Dragon's Lair again.

[concertmaster]

[<3]

No. Absolutely not. Fuck that game. The only way I'm playing it again is if I become on of those asshole video game streamers who just suck at games and yell a lot to make money off of Twitch.

[purrtagonist]

Why haven't you done that yet? I think you'd totally rake in the cash.

[concertmaster]

It takes away from my side job of trying to dethrone my Composer with whichever candidate I find adequate.

[purrtagonist]

[huh]

Is that all you do in your spare time, when you're not working Games?

[plot assassinations, he means]

[concertmaster]

Sometimes I listen to my coworkers talk and imagine strangling them with a spoon instead.

[yikes]
