Hehe, hello, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the latest edition of "What You Are In The Dark".
I'll be your host this fine, Irish night.
If anyone is still in any doubt who this is, the new background should shed some light on the matter, heh.
Tonight, I'd like to ask you all a question.
What are you in the dark?
Here on the blogosphere, you can say whatever you want without judgement. The only people here to judge you are people you can silence. The only judgement you receive is that which you allow yourselves to receive.
Which is what makes tonight's game so interesting. Tonight's game is a game of choice. Think of it as an...improvement on the game I played with Rob. Last time, you had a choice between letting Rob suffer and letting Rob die. This time, the only cards on the table are death.
Contestant number one is everybody's favourite traitor, Reach. Reach didn't come out too well in his fight with He That Is but he managed to survive long enough to be knocked unconscious. After a week of well-rounded torture (ain't hypersensitivity a bitch, Reach?), he's now sitting in a chair right on the edge of the near-freezing waters of Lake Coumshingaun. When five people say "PLEASE PUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE", he will be sent to join Aria at the bottom of the lake.
But what could possibly give you people incentive to sentence your pet turncoat to death? Well...
Contestant number two is an innocent. She knows nothing about He That Is. She is a relatively (by which I mean un-)successful writer with family and friends who deeply love and care for her. When five people say "PLEASE PUSH THE INNOCENT INTO THE LAKE", she will take Reach's place in the dark depths of Lake Coumshingaun.
The survivor will be set free. However, let me make something clear to you all.
This is our turf. There will be no rescue missions. There will be no negotiations. One of them is going to die by your hand or both of them will die by ours. You have two days to decide. In the meantime, we're going to chill out here and enjoy the lovely view. Choose wisely!
Regards,
r
YOU.
ReplyDeleteYOU BASTARD.
HOW'S YOUR FOOT, HUH? HOW'S YOUR FUCKING HAND?
HOW DARE YOU. OH HOW VERY, VERY DARE YOU.
HE'S ALIVE? GOOD. BECAUSE HE WILL FUCKING RIP YOUR ARMS OFF AND SHOVE THEM DOWN YOUR THROAT.
ARGHEJRTHRJY
I can't choose right now.
I love him too much to damn him, but I know he'd hate an innocent to die.
But I can't kill him. And I can't kill her. And I hate you so very, very much.
Did you send those balloons?
I wouldn't have put it past you....
....I know you said no negotiations. I accept that. So how about a deal?
I drop what I'm doing in Egypt. And I come to you.
You know what I mean by that.
Please, Redlight. Me for whatever you have in store for people like me.
In place of him.
ReplyDeletePUSH THE INNOCENT INTO THE LAKE
ReplyDeleteRegards,
King of the Wild Frontier
Negotiating a deal is still negotiating, Ava, and I said no negotiating.
ReplyDeleteHe That Is doesn't consider your little history project significant enough for us to just end the game like that. Definitely not.
You've been given your choice, child. Make it or shut up and let the grown-ups talk.
GODDAMNIT REDLIGHT
ReplyDeleteA friend and an ally, or an innocent stranger?
Every time I encounter you I hate you more and more.
--Chester
NO.
ReplyDeleteFUCKFUCKFUCK NOT THIS AGAIN -
I stayed away from your deals before, but this...
Fucking die in a pit.
So be it. I'll be abstaining, as usual, but I will offer you advice, dear Bishop.
ReplyDeleteRemember, if you focus on the lamb, you lose track of the stampede.
Negotiations my ass, Redlight.
ReplyDeleteYou're going down.
-Jeff
The Keeper
Out of curiosity, what if we don't decide? Although, it would appear the guy with the stupid name fucked up a blanket resistance for us.
ReplyDeleteThey both die. It's a classic sadistic choice. One or the other, or the villain chooses both.
ReplyDeleteHere's an idea, motherfucker. Why don't we push you in the motherfucking lake?!
ReplyDeleteWhen your Master finally decides to get his ass in gear and come after me, and therefore force me to run, you're my first target. That's right, you bastard; I'm not going to cower in some corner muttering "oh noes the tree man is gaon to gets mez lolz." You and your Master's servants are gone. Count on that.
PLEASE FUCKING PUSH YOURSELF [REDLIGHT(MOTHERFUCKER)] INTO THE FREAKING LAKE, YOU SON OF A BITCH.
Regards,
-Scott(Cataloger)
P.S. You're right. There will be no negotiations. You will die, and we will rescue Reach. Count on that, motherfucker.
My, my, so naive. You really don't get it at all, do you?
ReplyDeleteThere is no one who can save them both. Ireland is our land. There is no way in hell any of you can get here in time to stop us and even if you could, there are seven Revenants here with me.
There will be no negotiations, no deals, no rescue. You will decide or I will decide for you.
Now, play the game, kiddies, or sit down and shut up.
We'll see about that, Redlight(Motherfucker). And yes, I'm using the title system that you so hate. Deal with it.
ReplyDelete-Scott(Cataloger)
Also, surely I can't be the only one who thinks Scott sounds just a wee bit...pathetic.
ReplyDelete"When I am eventually forced get up off my ass and start doing shit instead of sitting around coming up with theories, I'm coming for you."
Leave the threatening to Ava, Scott, at least she can pull it off.
Wow, you are a terrible little worm. Aren't you?
ReplyDeleteI never did like game shows, they always seemed so pointless. Just like this one. Only, this game show is just more pointless then most. You don't seem very trustworthy, so I am doubtful anyone gets a prize at the end of this game. It's all reserved for you, am I correct?
You heartless bastard.
No words can describe how disgusting this is.
What is probably most ironic, is that the Green Goblin tried this. And lost. I wonder what that would suggest...
Ohoho! So, you want to play, Redlight(Motherfucker)?
ReplyDeleteTell me, Redlight; what forces you to do these things? Did your parents not love you? Did they yell at you and kick you and abuse you until you were driven in your room, and spent the rest of the night sobbing in the corner? Did you tear out your hair and curse the day you were born in those times?
Did you have no friends at school, and the people you did trust, did they turn your back on you when you needed them the most? Were you despised by all who saw you, even the teachers and counselors who were supposed to help you? Did the girls that you loved sneer at your very appearance, thinking that the sight of you was an ugly blot on an otherwise perfect day?
Or maybe you're competing for your Master's love? After all, you're rather insistent on getting rid of Its biggest enemies. Are you just clamoring for Its attention for a few seconds, when in reality It has more important matters to deal with than to be with you? Do you feel... unloved by your Master? Awww, what a poor baby, you need a hug. Come here; we'll wipe away your tears for you.
You cruel, heartless, disgusting bastard. We are not the only ones that feel this way; your Master feels the same way. Even though you help It, It looks upon your acts with loathing, and cannot bear your iniquity. One day, your Master will have no use for you, and he will toss you away, as carelessly as a crumpled-up piece of paper. Soon, you will be utterly forgotten, except for an occasional vague bad dream when one of us sleeps.
Goodbye, and Goodnight, Redlight(Motherfucker); you're already dead.
How sad.
Ah, but there are are some key differences between the Green Goblin's diabolical dichotomy and mine, the most important being that in this scenario, all the superpowered people are either on my side or teetering on the edge of their death.
ReplyDeleteLove is a superpower. That may be the cheesiest thing you ever here, but it makes people capable of things they would never have done without it.
ReplyDelete--Chester
Oh Scott, try to psychoanalyse me if you want, but you're not going to get anywhere.
ReplyDeleteInteresting factoid though; people attack and mock the qualities in other people that they fear they possess themselves.
Perhaps it's you who needs psychoanalysis, Scottieboy.
Ahhhh, finding the time to respond to me, Redlight(Motherfucker)? How sad; you have wasted a portion of your pathetic life trying to Hannibal Lecture me when it's not even going to work. At all. Also, there's always an exception to the rule, and I'm that exception, bitch. :)
ReplyDeleteMy earlier answer remains the same.
after thinking about it, i have come to my conclusion.
ReplyDeletehate me all you want for it guys, but im doing what is the most logical thing to me.
PLEASE PUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE.
Scott, you are in no position to mock, you did the exact same thing to me, except you put even more effort into attacking me.
ReplyDeleteAh, it's amusing for me to watch you squabble and squander your time, trying to wish it wasn't true, trying to put off making the choice as long as possible. What's really amusing is that your emotional and moral cowardice is just going to get them both killed.
Really now, I'm supposed to be the entertainer here.
Wow. This is simultaneously your most infuriating and most pathetic attempt to break us. 'Ohh Bloggers pick the poor innocent girl with loved ones or Reach, whoever dies it'll be all your fault'. Give me a fucking break. This. This is your fault you cowardly fuck-wit. You call us out on our handles but most of us have said our real name had some point why don't you? Hiding behind a name we gave you what a pathetic fuck-up you must be, can't even pick your own damn identity.
ReplyDeleteMe? I'm willing to Shoot The Dog and take whatever hell anyone wants to give me; Reach is useful, he's our ally, she's a faceless causality, don't even know her name.
But I feel I should abstain you ARE an incompetent fuck-up; remember Nessa, you sure did a good job protecting her. Oh Zeke, you sure put the fear of it in him. Remember what happened to your hand? Then Ava blasted your foot, and you had super-speed. Frankly I think you'd drop them in while trying to free them you're so incompetent.
I suppose I should do what you can't though, and actually hold true to my word:
Push the innocent into the lake.
Oh and do remember if you cop-out and push them both in you'll only be proving me right: you're an incompetent fuck-wit that can't do anything right not even carry out a proper Sadistic Choice.
Bullshit. You're going to kill the both of them anyway, regardless of who gets the five votes. Sorry, but considering you're a bastard enough to do that, I'm going to take the third option, and say "PLEASE FUCKING PUSH YOURSELF [REDLIGHT(MOTHERFUCKER)] INTO THE FREAKING LAKE, YOU SON OF A BITCH."
ReplyDeleteBy the way, why don't you put Reach on the line, let us know what we should do? I know you've got the ability to do so; you have Internet access on a godamned mountain. Let's hear what he's got to say about that matter. Until then--
...wait a minute. Did you say the other victim was an unsuccessful writer?...
You BASTARD.
An unsucessful writer...? Who is it? Do you know, Scott?
ReplyDelete--Chester
Another moron tries to psychoanalyse a psycho. My, my, my, such naivety. After all the horrors you people have had to endure, after all the darkness you've seen in this world, has it ever occurred to you that perhaps...
ReplyDelete...I just enjoy inflicting pain?
Oh, look's like Scottie does know something for a change.
ReplyDeleteOh, well! Would you look at the time, it's getting late, I should go have a nice, well-earned rest. Hopefully, when I check back in tomorrow morning, you'll have made your choices.
Catherine Shaughnessy. She wasn't killed.
ReplyDeleteWhere the hell is Specter when you need him?
A decent point. But for how long? There is no doubt in my mind that you have some "allies" who will or may be plotting against you. If you're talking about your master... Well, I hope you screw up as much as you claim Reach did. If nobody can tear you to pieces as you claim, maybe he can.
ReplyDeleteIn the mean time. You don't have my vote. I am merely an audience member in this game. Good luck guys, you can beat this bastard.
I wasn't trying to psychoanalyze you, just stating the most basic of fact: you're an incompetent fuck-up. An incompetent fuck-up who likes causing pain, ohh big surprise. Also, you didn't actually address any of my points just called me an idiot and ran away; that is the debating skill of an 11-year-old.
ReplyDeleteJust love you running away without addressing the question of what Reach wants; I can guess though he'd want to save her, to what end though? I already have some thoughts on this but I'll keep quiet want to let everyone make their decisions by themselves.
You're all going to hate me.
ReplyDeletePLEASE PU
Fuck. He risked his life to save me. You knew that, right?
PLEASE PUSH R
He's done it before. Used his own life to save his daughter. I... fuck. Ava, I'm sorry. Everyone, I'm sorry. But this is the only way it can go.
Reach, I'm so sorry. I'm so, so sorry.
PLEASE PUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE.
Thage: I thought as much. Of course, there's no guarantee that if we do choose he won't simply kill them both anyway. For that matter, how can we really be sure he even has them? He could just be fucking with us for the sake of watching us squirm. He did admit to simply being a sadist.
ReplyDeleteI suggest none of us vote until we have some sort of evidence that he does in fact have hostages.
...Echo has a point, guys. How do we know that he does indeed have Reach and Catherine? He could easily be lying.
ReplyDeleteI hope he is. I really hope he is.
ReplyDeleteHello friend. We've come a long way haven't we? Trouble is with this choice is that I know a few dozen things that you don't. More specifically, I have a dear friend in my hotel room now. Letterman says hello.
ReplyDeletePUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE.
Oh and Chef Boyardee sends his regards and wants to know when you want seconds.
You guys are more than allowed to hate me forever for this. All of you. Especially Reach.
ReplyDeletePUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE
I hope that you know what you're doing, Robert...
PUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry.
Fuck it.
ReplyDeletePLEASE PUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE.
I pray for your soul, Redlight. And I pray for all of ours.
Push the Black Rook into the lake. I won't waste courtesies on a pawn, even if he wears the Bishop's hat.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're keeping watch for a stampede.
Jay you have fallen a long way since your days as a sage, and I have pity for you soul. You are a shell of your former self a twisted and perverse shadow of man that was once a sign of hope. I won't be sad when we kill you. Enjoy your time because it is short.
ReplyDeletePUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE
ReplyDeleteYou've turned into quite the little Jigsaw haven't you, Jay?
ReplyDeleteI suppose I could bandy words, psychoanalyze you, or curse you out. You'll flippantly disregard anything I have to say for the most part. After all, you've been a part of this longer than most anyone.
I'll say the only thing anyone can say
PLEASE PUSH LIZZIE INTO THE LAKE
It appears the decision's already been made.
ReplyDeleteI'll say one thing though.
Redlight, you may be a sociopathic fuckwad, but you're not a powerful sociopathic fuckwad. You can do things, but there is so much more you can't and never will be able to do, and those are the things we specialise at.
I feel so so sorry for you...
PUSH REACH INTO THE LAKE
ReplyDeleteYou sick, motherfucking bastard...
ReplyDeleteOne of these days, Redlight, you won't be able to run and hide as you please. One of these days, someone is going to catch up to you. One of these days, your time will run out.
I hope they make you suffer for everything you've done...
People have escaped before. I trust Reach to do the same. If he can escape Him and take down a couple of proxies in the process, you'll be nothing but a warm-up for him, Redlight. As for the Innocent, if she is innocent, she doesn't fear Him and she won't be afraid of you.
ReplyDeleteI make no request.
I know you hope to tear us apart with these games. But all you have accomplished is making me appreciate, respect, nay, even love every one of these people above me.
And I don't care who you "end" or "push", nothing will change that. As long as we are together, we cannot be stopped.
Especially not by you.
Damn. Too late. Go throw yourself into the lake, you sick fucker.
ReplyDeleteEight votes for Reach already. One or two for the innocent.
ReplyDeleteI hope you guys know what you're doing.
So, Redlight.
ReplyDeleteHow do you like us now?
Now he's alive and she's alive and Robert's alive and I'm alive and you're alive too.
It's like we're all one big happy family.
Redlight you fool, just kill Reach.
ReplyDeleteWell I'll be. You guys DID know what you were doing! Suck it, Redlight!
ReplyDeleteYou're too late Lug.
ReplyDeleteRobert saved him.
Miserable Screw Up...
ReplyDeleteThat he is. But we wouldn't take Redlight any other way.
ReplyDelete...Everything seems resolved now, but I'd just like to join in the spree and say: GO FUCK YOURSELF REDLIGHT, AND JUMP INTO THAT LAKE YOURSELF. YOU, SIR, ARE A FUCKWAD.
ReplyDeleteThat is all.
GO FUCK YOURSELF, REDLIGHT
-Summer
Hahahahaha! You got out-witted by Robert again. So what ARE you going to do now?
ReplyDeleteOh also throw me into the 'Go jump into the lake yourself you degenerate incompetent fuck-up' camp.
