This is a public forum, Mun. I'm allowed to bitch all I fucking want on it. [ VOICE TESTING ]

Well, first off, fuck you, Mun.

You haven't even finished the application yet, and now you want me to go along with your whims. I've got pretty good reason to not listen to a word you say. Jesus... christ, you plan on sending me to a floating torture facility in the middle of outer space. Do I need to repeat myself here? ... Torture facility. In. Outer. Fucking. Space. There's probably not even any internet connection out there. And see, 'torture' is a giant fucking turnoff in case you don't know.

You want me to be a lab rat and let a bunch of nutcases run a bunch of experiments on me until my mind breaks?

Thanks, but no thanks.

I was in space. A previous incarnation of me was anyway.

Now my mun wants to send me to a town full of monsters in Canada, or to an underwater city named Rapture. They live off of torturing us. Be it from the muns themselves, or the places they put us.

[blink, stare, shakes head. it's good to see you, bro, but she's stressed out right now.] Alex? You ended up in space? Eh, your... previous incarnation did? How does that even work?

Either one of those places sound like a crappy hellhole... For fuck's sakes, are all of them manipulative assholes?

This isn't the only account the mun had. And where I was, could very well be considered torture. It was a prison ship in space. It's main purpose was to redeem those that had lost their way, or lost touch with humanity.

I was forced there for over a year. Enduring both physical and mental challenges. Some of it wasn't so bad, but I got a taste of death, only to be brought back to that hellish place.

They take pleasure in making us suffer.

Redeem 'those who lost their way'? In a prison in outer space. [her voice was very flat. though the 'lost touch with humanity' might be explainable considering whatever the hell Gentek had done to him (tentacles and eating people, no matter how you looked at it, was very much inhuman) had wrought changes, what gave them the right to put her brother through hell?]

What a bunch of self-righteous bastards.

Shit.

[Gentek responsible for what became of him? Uh, well- partly. Sorry Dana, but what Alex knows is not going to be so comforting for you. Hell, it's not comforting for him.]

They think we're here for their entertainment; to do with what they like. Playthings.

[There's a frown on his face. Anger rising.] It seems they're winning here.

[yes, but Dana is quite unaware of that. She's working purely off what information she has at hand. It's not like you ever thought to elaborate on your new gruesome skill set beyond "I EAT PEOPLE ON A REGULAR BASIS AND GET THEIR MEMORIES B)" geez, Alex. way to go bro.]

Well, fuck them then.

[you're always frowning. she grimaces.] Bah. This... sucks. Can they be blackmailed or whatever?

[Not really, no. And hey, some of that nom-nom-nom seems to be working great at getting information. Hah, who needs blackmail now? Threats have worked, so does violently shredding your opponent in half with razor sharp claws, but none of that works on your mun Alex. Sucks for you, so yeah, he'll keep frowning.]

Not my style. [See list of things above.] Compromise might work, but even then I have a feeling that wouldn't last very long. [Yeah, they're pretty much fucked.]

[B| she rubbed at her temple wearily, clear annoyance and/or frustration crinkling her skin and tightening her mouth.]

Damnit. [you're being a real optimist here, aren't you, Alex.] And considering our fucking existence at the moment depends on them... Fuck.

[You know him, Mr. Sunshine. Pfft.]

Even if we can't stop them from sending us to places against our will, it doesn't mean I won't stop fighting. Whatever they throw me, at you, I'll knock them back.

[hahaha-fucking-ha. but that makes her lighten up some: at least enough to smirk at her older brother.]

Of course, you wouldn't. You're a hard-headed, stubborn fucking bastard like that. [ not to mention it'd be ~~really damn funny nice to see some of those muns knocked back flat on their asses.~~ ]

Dana...? [Despite the blank look on his face, he's... happy... yes, happy to see you. This threat of torture though? Yeah, not so happy about that.]

What's this about torture?

Hey, Alex. [tired, thin smile, don't sweat it bro she's used to your emotionless face. Alex is handed a helpful little packet.]

Read it. It's a pretty fucked-up place.

[He'll just take that packet..... and scowl when he's done reading it's contents.]

There's an understatement. And your [God what are they called again? Something weird and dumb.] Mun wants to take you there?

[At his side, a fist clenches. They can't take you there if they're dead.]

[she made a quick sweeping gesture with her right arm.]

Apparently so-o. Seems our [eyeroll] Muns are a local species of assholes that get off to our misery. Yes, she wants to take me there, no, she doesn't care if I disagree.

[your ~~big brother complex~~ homicidal tendencies are showing, Alex. cool it down a notch.]

[A bitter snort.] That always seems to be the story with these people. Do you have anybody you know there? Any acquaintances? Knowing someone there could make a difference.

[Yeah, that's what the leader Hunter that took you wanted too. It didn't happen.]

[eyebrow lift, then a nod.] Hm, you're there... Another version of you, I mean. But he's the only one I would know.

[instead, I got knocked into a coma for the rest of the game. because Ubisoft hates me.]

[He's momentarily confused by the revelation, but he'll bring that to question in a bit. Besides, who else could look after his sister better than, well, himself?] Then stick by him-- uh... me. Don't trust anybody else while you're there. Understand?

[Yeah that was not cool.]

[it's moments like these when she's sorta touched that Alex actually seems to care that she stays safe and protected. it was a nice change from when she only existed when she was useful to him. wry tone of voice:] Kinda doubt everyone else in the place will be untrustworthy backstabbing fuckers, but you don't need tell me twice to be careful. I'm a big girl and all that. [Grown up, can take care of herself, ties her own shoelaces, etc.]

[it was 'not cool' to the extreme ugh.]

[He doesn't seem phased. He's fiercely paranoid by nature, sis, he needs to be absolutely sure.] Don't be too sure. If there are muns that enjoy our suffering, you can bet there'll be more. And worse.

[And then they messed things up more when the second game rolled around.]

[well, Alex did have perfectly good reasons to be insanely paranoid.] That's true. Listen, Alex, I'll keep my guard up and do my best to not die, okay? Promise, is that enough for right now?

[i'm sorry, but I'm still in denial that game ever happened, so what are you talking about again]
