UNHOLY DISORDER

[livestage]

You find yourselves in a surprisingly sterile room. It's entirely white, almost blindingly so. There are a few beanbag chairs to sit on, though perhaps not enough for your entire family. On one of the walls, there's a laminated poster of a wheel. At the center of the room is a table with a glass case on top. If you lift the case, you'll find a single red button. Behind a glass panel on the wall is a monitor that is currently off.

Curiously, it does not seem as though you can actually destroy anything in this room (save for a simple note by the button), regardless of how much you may try. The glass will never shatter. The poster cannot be torn into pieces. Furthermore, your blessings and powers are off and none of your personal belongings are actually on your person.

A simple note lays by the button on the table, a reminder of your directive: Will you push the button?

[ he is very tired and late to this party and wow there is an actual brawl happening???

why does he always miss the fun stuff.

time to do the mature thing while everyone is busy that isn't choosing (immediate?) violence, he guesses: which is definitely pressing the button.

hopefully makes panic button noise or operation buzz noise or something dumb. ]

[ ... as someone helplessly watching from a beanbag his helpful reaction is at first: ]

Um.

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

Hi, I'm late.

Re: DISCUSSION

[restitui]

Yeah, we can see that.

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

Why're they all fighting?

Re: DISCUSSION

[restitui]

Other then just because they can? I think it started as what to choose and moved to who gets to press it.

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

They all wanna press it that badly?

...Oh, oops.

Re: DISCUSSION

[restitui]

[ deep breath!!! ]

Don't worry about it.

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

Couldn't you all have just pressed it together? Like a handspile kinda deal?

Re: DISCUSSION

[notlikeanyone]

[ now hang on

pauses in biting Goose to pop up like a meerkat out of the tangle of fighty limbs

oAo??? ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

Ohh, you guys looked so busy so I didn't think I'd get to ask: what're we fighting about?

Re: DISCUSSION

[notlikeanyone]

[ inhales




exhales

possibly while he's got a hand fisting Goose's hair to hold on idk ]

Who gets to push the button.

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

a.h.

Re: DISCUSSION

[notlikeanyone]

I can't believe you've stolen the button's honour like this.

[ shakes his head ]

Oh well. No use crying over spilled buttons, I guess.

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

I'll let you have the next button to fight over? Does that help?

Re: DISCUSSION

[notlikeanyone]

Sure okay. No takesies backsies, the next button is mine.

Re: DISCUSSION

[untilldeath]

[ . . . OH MY GOD. ]

THAT WAS MINE-!

[HE WAS TOTALLY WINNING (citation needed)]

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

[ hehe ?! ]

—YOUR WHAT?

Re: DISCUSSION

[untilldeath]

The button!

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

...Okay, but it's not a very satisfying button, let me tell you.

Re: DISCUSSION

[untilldeath]

Tch-

[Grumble grumble.]

It shoulda been me...

[ . . . . . Was trying to protect the others from feeling like crap or having to be the one to do the deed. He already did this before on a stage, so... not like he was losing anything by being the culprit.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

There, there... you can have the other... other button?

Why didn't you all just press it together?

Re: DISCUSSION

[untilldeath]

No promises I'm giving the next one up either.

But uh... this was the best way, anyway. Giving a dramatic show was part of the win conditions.

Re: DISCUSSION

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

[ stares at him for a second ]

[ then just starts laughing ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[vapour]

[ staring at the poster ]

The wheel isn't moving. I was kind of expecting it to.
