Image Description: VCR paws at the glass pathetically. Image Description: Word box reading 'Annnnnnny minute now.' Image Description: Jacques, an anthropromorphic playing card, opens the door.

"... Are you the VCR machine?"

"Who are you? Where's Task Manager?"

Image Description: Jacques looks down at VCR angrily.

"The fan is dead."

"What?"

"You are a shirt, no? The fan. Is dead."

"But- but-"

"The last elimination was a bloodbath. We did not have enough votes on our side. Thon did not make it."

Image Description: VCR looks shocked.

"My entire team is dead?"

"Idiot. I am your team. The challenge is almost over. Unless you want to abandon your team again, I suggest we hurry."

Image Description: Jacques sweeps the floor. VCR sits by a dust pan.

"Thon’s really gone?"

"Stop asking questions. I did not not agree to compete as an encyclopedia."

Image Description: Jacques looks down sadly.

"... Oui. Splattered against the wall."

"What is the challenge again?"

"Task Manager asked us to fix up the mall."

Image Description: VCR looks distressed, wires ruffled.

"We can’t fix this."

"What?"

Image Description: VCR angrily arches her back.

"I said, we can’t fix this."

"Who even cares about the mall-! Let it burn to the ground for all I care!"

"Why should I even be helping you-! You’re not even a real shirt!"

"You didn’t even know them! We can’t fix Tinerva, or Dexter, or G3rminator, or Tiny Fan-! They're gone and they're never coming back."

"Who cares anymore? It’s a stupid game, and we’re all going to die. It can’t be fixed. None of us can fix this."

Image Description: Jacques looks shocked.

"I-"

Image Description: VCR looks down, regretful.

"I should go find Task Manager."
