performance ⛥ instructions ⛥ turn-in

The lights flicker on and you find yourself standing inside a vintage-looking subway car.

It both feels and sounds like it's in motion, but the only thing that can be seen outside the windows is pitch black darkness.

It also feels like there's somebody else in the car with you. There are three small cases in the front, middle, and back of the car that hold a small vial.

[ nods ]

And if it's somehow not enough - [ because producers will producer ]- no hard feelings and we try to help each other if we can?

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

Of course. That's a given.

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

... okay. I mean, it should be fine for a pass even if it is just two points by their standard, right?

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

Yeah. If we both sacrifice the minimum, then we clear the room.

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

[ another short nod as he moves for the screen ]

Then we just have to hope that they're not the type of Producer to change things slightly for whatever's more dramatic.

Do you want to put it in first or should I?

1/2

[bondsofsuffering]

I can go first.

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

[He'll step up to the screen- ...and fail the captcha.]

...

Seriously?

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

[ stepping aside to let him and ??? ]

What.

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

Maybe I just keyed it in wrong?

[Let's see, trying again-

captcha failed]

You're kidding me.

[He's allowed to feel fully annoyed apparently, no dulling there.]

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

[ snorts behind his hand ]

Maybe they're hoping you'll get annoyed enough to change the answer when that's not how it works at all.

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

Now I really gotta put my answer in-

[Fail]

COME ON!!

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

[ help. starts laughing ]

Maybe if you wanna put your answer in a little less?

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

There's no way that would-

[Success!]

Finally!

[He's soooooooooooo annoyed. But he's putting in his first answer.]

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

Seriously, there's more?

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

This is just cruel.

[Enters his Family: Success!]

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

Maybe that's the point and the key to passing is annoyance.

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

I think it's safe to say at this point that Duty's Performances suck.

[Puts in: Octopus plushie from Cinth. Success!]

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

You know which one this is?

[ Said as he probably takes over the machine ]



[ Puts in: Phoenix. And then it immediately pings Success! ]

........ I'm not saying anything.

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

I-

[Sorry, thought process immediately interrupted because what the fuck.]

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

[ shakes his head as he types in unholy disorder ]

[ Success! ]

[ ... ]








Shhhhhh

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

[He's fuming. But the annoyance is purely directed at the stupid captcha.]

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

[ Types in: Picture of Tommy. Stays on the screen for a while longer and then adds to the end of his sacrifice: (by the way you have a pretty shit idea about what sacrifice is) and then hits send immediately to not chicken out.]



[ Success! ]


Huh. [ A beat jokingly: ]

If I'm kind of the son of a robot, does that mean I just helped robots beat capcha?

[ phoenix, no- ]

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

[HE'S SO ANNOYED!!!!!!!!]

I hate this Performance.

Re: 2/2

[restitui]

[ pat pats ]

Telling you it was the wanting it so bad, the capcha just knows.

Re: 2/2

[bondsofsuffering]

What is this, a gacha game?!
