"Presumably the same way you do, seeing as it's BROKEN," pointed
out Trisees.
"Touché," said Keto after a pause.
"Uh, excuse me?" interrupted Sara, "Who's this?"
"*This*," replied Trisees pointedly, "Is Lawrence Trisees. I used
to be a crewmember here a while back. And now I've returned."
"Oh, I see," nodded Sara and then, unable to resist, continued, "An
old hand, hmm?"
Trisees stared at her for a moment, then blinked and turned to Keto
again.
"She just made a hand joke, Charles."
"I know," shrugged Keto, "She's sarcastic...which, I'm sure you'll
agree, is generally a good thing..."
With that, he turned to Sara and raised an eyebrow.
"...but usually not when aimed at Trisees or myself.
Sarcasm's...something of a hobby of ours. Anyway, back to the point
in question - how do we get out of here?"
"Well, Holly spliced me in. Presumably he could splice us out,"
said Trisees, giving a one-armed shrug.
"But Holly doesn't know we WANT to be let out," said Sara, "And
he's not exactly the sharpest tool in the box in the first place."
"So step one is to let Holly know that something's wrong," nodded
Keto.
"How do we do that?"
"Simple," replied Keto, and unexpectedly grinned. It was an
unsettling sight. "We crash the game."
There was silence, broken only by the cold wind and a distant
growling in the fog.
"We what?" asked Sara.
"We crash the game?" frowned Trisees, "How?"
"We introduce too much for it to handle," stated Keto, "We need to
start thinking up as many imaginary things as we possibly can. And
since this corrupted version of Better Than Life seems to only work
on nightmares..."
He raised an eyebrow at the other two.
"...we need to bring as many of our nightmares into the game as
possible. Enough to send it crashing down."
