[ there's a bit of crackle on the channel before a voice, mellifluous and utterly calm, starts broadcasting. monsters everywhere? psh. that's a minor concern compared to other things. ]

It's all a very interesting game. Familiar, too, in a way. Asper the board, we the pawns, and the synergy between each piece will be what brings about the salvation and success of this faltering world.

he pauses for a moment before he chuckles lightly ]

But it makes you wonder: who, exactly, is moving us all?

--- action ---

[ and for those who might be near the department store and happen to chance a peek inside, they might see a man with a pair of bloodstained scissors in his hands and a faint smile on his face. there is the smallest puddle of blood near his feet, in which lies in the corpse of a puppycat. look closely enough, though, and you might notice that a few usually prominent facial features seem to have gone conveniently missing... ]

	If it makes you feel better to believe you're a pawn, then go right ahead, but nothing's ever as neat and tidy as a board game. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Did I say that? Everyone's interesting, given the chance. And everything, too. [ rat might be able to hear the sound of something being pushed against the ground as vincent nudges the fallen puppycat with one foot. ] These creatures, for instance.

	Easily entertained, too. Huh. [ what a treasure you are. This is exactly the kind of talk that Rat hates, and yet. He hears the sound of something dragging over tiles. Something most definitely not alive. ] Should I be worried? If you treat everything you're interested in that way... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ that's why it's important to think outside the box!! cutting up all those dolls turned out to be good for something, after all... ]

A clothing store, with a few other items.

Do be careful, Elliot. Neither your brothers nor your sister would be pleased if you were to die risking your neck for me.
