because i've lost control of my life

[didsomeonesaytrap]

Hey, Mun!

That game you want to send me to sounds great! Mysteries, curses, and monsters! It's like everything Crystal Cove has, but even more dangerous! I'll be like Dr. Rick Spartan, a real adventurer with dungeons and tombs that definitely aren't movie props! The gang'll have a blast with this!

…What do you mean the gang isn't coming?

Not even Daphne?

FRED? Is it really you, my son?

[didsomeonesaytrap]

[Oh, awkward.]

I'm not your son, dad! I mean. Not dad.

[freakymayor]

But you are my son, Fred! I raised you!

[didsomeonesaytrap]

You raised me on lies! That's worse than being raised by apes!

[freakymayor]

Apes? I-I don't understand, son. What does that even mean?

[didsomeonesaytrap]

It means you don't get to call me 'son'!

[freakymayor]

Well, who else do you have to call you 'son'?

[didsomeonesaytrap]

...

That's none of your business, okay?

[freakymayor]

I think it is. I'm your father. Everything about you is my business.

[didsomeonesaytrap]

I'm my own person. I don't need to tell you anything I don't want to.

[monsterofceremonies]

[Did someone say monsters?]

WOW you are REALLY kinda freaking me out right now!






....But I have to say, nice ascot!

[didsomeonesaytrap]

Ha ha, thanks! Nice bird costume!

[monsterofceremonies]

[Costume...right.

Maybe he can assimilate into their culture and make it out alive.]

HA! You got me...my human dude-brother!

I'm wearing it for... [Mumbles vague holiday.]

[didsomeonesaytrap]

[Oh you poor Griffon monster frat-boy individual. ]

It's okay, you don't need to be embarrassed. I respect your cultural differences!

[monsterofceremonies]

[Finger gun. Just act cool, right?]

Much appreciated, foreign guy from...Americastan?

[didsomeonesaytrap]

It's just America, but you definitely almost got there. Where are you from?

[monsterofceremonies]

[SHOOT.]

Uh...Latveriastanislavis..stan...mania.

[didsomeonesaytrap]

Wow, I've never even heard of that country before! That's really neat.

[monsterofceremonies]

Yeah we've got like costumes...and stuff. YEAH!

Hey you know what'd be awesome? If you showed me your closet and got out the room for like two minutes!

[didsomeonesaytrap]

Uh... That's a pretty weird request of someone I've never met before, but sure, why not.

[EXCEPT HIS CLOSET IS LADEN WITH TRAPS... ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT THIS, SIR.]

[monsterofceremonies]

It's a totally awesome custom of my country to stand in the closet of the first person we meet, YEAH!

you are my new favorite person

[wildcardpotential]

Going places without your friends is really scary. Good luck!

[She hates being alone, she would never wish that on anyone!]

thank you u//u

[didsomeonesaytrap]

Thanks! I really think I'll need it. But I'm pretty confident that the others will show up. They usually do!

[Not... how it works, Fred.]

old style scooby-doo is literally my childhood

[wildcardpotential]

I'm sure you'll be all right! There's almost always some helpful people around to keep you going!

I hope that they do!

[She doesn't know well enough about how these things work to confirm or deny that's how that works.]

Send up a Scooby-signal!

mine too!!

[didsomeonesaytrap]

The Scooby-signal?

[He's never had one of those before.]

That sounds like a great idea! If it works for Batman, it should work for me, right? Except I think to get Scooby and Shaggy's attention, it would have to be a giant sandwich...

best childhood o/\o

[wildcardpotential]

You could rig up one of those, right?

[She's a bit enthusiastic, now.]

Yeah! That's what I mean! Something attention-grabbing... [Laughter] Well, there's that.

aww yiss

[didsomeonesaytrap]

I could definitely rig up one! Looks like I won't have a ton of supplies to work with at that game, but I'm sure I could figure out something.

[wildcardpotential]

Aw, that's a small damper in the works...

Erm, where are you going?

[didsomeonesaytrap]

Some place called "Exit Void." Know of it?

[wildcardpotential]

Sounds familiar, but no I don't really know anything about it.

[didsomeonesaytrap]

Darn. Oh well, I'ms ure it's going to be a great adventure either way!
