[ SOME DWEEB is sitting on an overturned robot. He's playing a game on his cellphone but next to him is a gym bag with tennis shoes and a volleyball.

Clearly you should bother him :u ]

[He looks down at the robot as well.]

Seems like he's out of batteries or whatever these things run on.

[neuroticat]

. . .


Mm. . .

[ back to his cellphone game . . . ]

[multitalented]

[Wow rude.]

This is a good chance to see how these things work, aren't you curious?

[neuroticat]

. . . not really.

[multitalented]

....

Well, I am.

[Just going to shove you off like it's no big deal.]

[neuroticat]

[ omg rude

. . . falls over. . . ]

Hey. . .

[multitalented]

[You were rude first!]

Yeah? If you don't wanna help then get lost.

[Casually looking over the robot... there's probably a panel or something somewhere, right???]

[neuroticat]

. . .

[ gets up a slowly. . . ]

Maybe you shouldn't . . .

[multitalented]

Shouldn't what?

[THERES NO PANELS ON THE FRONT, maybe they're on the back, he'll just casually flip the robot over.]

[neuroticat]

Destroy other people's property. . .

[multitalented]

It doesn't work. What does it matter if I mess with it at this point? Maybe I could even fix it.

[HE FOUND A PANEL. IT'S SCREWED SHUT. This is a roadblock he hadn't really considered. He is now considering his options.]

[neuroticat]

. . . still.

[multitalented]

[He gets to his feet.]

if you think it's so bad you can just run along so you won't be implicated.

[Clearly the best solution to his lack of screwdriver is to smash the panel open with his foot. DELINQUENT LYFE]

[neuroticat]

. . .

[ um

did you really just do that ]

1/3

[multitalented]

[He did. And it worked. Two of the screws popped out of place, enough for him to pry the rest of it off.




There is a soft beeping noise.]

Hm.

[Looking inside.]

2/3

[multitalented]

[There's some sort of small device with a digital display, the numbers on it counting down.

That's

No surely it's not.


No that's definitely a bomb. He must've triggered it by bashing the panel in. Oops.]

3/3

[multitalented]

H-hey uh, you wouldn't happen to know how to disarm a bomb, would you?

[neuroticat]

. . .

You did something strange, didn't you.

[multitalented]

I didn't do anything! It was going when I opened it up!

[NO YOH IT'S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT]

[neuroticat]

We should probably run away.

[multitalented]

But then we'll never get a chance to try and find out how this thing works!

[HE IS NOT GIVING UP NOW GODDAMNIT!

Peering inside.]

There's a blue wire. That's the one you're supposed to cut, right!?

[Except he has nothing to cut it with.]

[neuroticat]

Don't blow us up. Being stubborn about not giving up won't help.
