CIRRUS NETWORK

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?

[yeah he also gives up on words and just kind of leans his weight into trying to slam Booker into the ground bodily. F if Booker rips some of his hair out or he gets a full chunk bitten out of his arm in the process, this too is not as bad as continuous torture death by hurricane]

I definitely did not. I told you we couldn't keep deliberately picking at each other's sore spots, going for what hurts, if we wanted to do . . . literally anything . . . with continuing to interact.

Likely not, but I think he expressed some of it to his Family in the process, and I've no idea if he cleared it up with them afterwards.

Mm.

Ultimately it's the simplest dilemma of all. Hurt others, hurt ourselves. There's not much compromise to be had over it.
