SUN SIGN

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?

Insurance fraud? ...

That doesn't seem bad.

Kind of hard to see how that would even be relevant here.

Right. I can't even think of a single instance where fuckin' over an insurance is a BAD thing.

Yeah, the only one that seems like it could be bad is "o dam"...?

Yeah that's probably a water sort of death.

If they can fit a subway on the third floor, a dam seems pretty reasonable.

Wait, you think like, literally?

... That's be terrible an' kinda cool.

I guess they could just flood the room. Like a dam.

Way less stylish.

True. If anyone's going to die, the bare minimum should be that it's in a cool way.

EXACTLY! They better fuckin' spin somethin' good!

But I don't think you can make dumpster diving cool.

...

[His little kitty brain is trying though.

A lot.]

And everyone will smell like rotten pizza for a week.

Why isn't there a PREVENT things button?

I'd really like a button that lets us leave.

... You know, might be worth lookin' for. You know. Just in case.

It is if one is caught.

Easy.

We just don't.

That would hardly be much of a "punishment", now would it.

If not an attack on our finances, I imagine it's something more along the lines of arranging to be hit by a car or otherwise harmed in order to claim restitution.

...

I wonder if I can tank a car.

Under regular circumstances and with current crumple zones and other safety measures... it's not impossible. Your relative speeds would play a factor.

Aint THAT much room in here to get too bad.

Probably.

I'm not sure if you would fully "tank" it, but I feel comfortable in saying you would do as much damage to the car as it would do to you.

I'd be satisfied with that.
