It's a sad song - It's a sad tale

[musacal]

[ WELL THAT... HAPPENED, HUH. YO WHAT THE FUCK DISCORD THAT'S BALLER.

Good thing the Wizard's probably going to be occupied with THAT for a while longer because it looks like this long ass, nogood day isn't quite over yet as there's still one more incoming curve ball. In contrast to the smell of smoke from the auditorium there seems to be a... sweet, banana-y baked good smell coming from the cafeteria? But who could have been baking while you were all at the trial--

If you go in there or even just pass by at all, you'll find on one of the tables there's a plate with several warm and fresh banana muffins. Underneath the plate, just sticking out enough so that you can see a corner peeking out, is a folded up note:


You are not alone. I'm here to help.
I'll be waiting for everyone in the
girl's washroom on the first floor.

Come and find me.
-a friend

At the bottom of the note is a small, hand drawn banana. The handwriting and muffins might look familiar to two of you.

...soooooooo you up for a meeting after all that shit? ]

Oh, no um... it was just me.

I didn't tell the rest of you at the time because I didn't want you to worry too much about me but...

I left with LP after she saved us. No one else knows about it so um... it's just me sadly.

[musacal]

That was his doing.

Last time we had seances and all sorts of stuff and uh... the ghosts of our friends ruined his whole game. I fear he's learned from last time and is doing everything he can to make sure they can't interfere again.

So that's why Boss had them help her summon me as Plan B instead.

[ Plan B-nana ]

[employeeoftheyear]

...

This guy really does think making people pointlessly suffer will help him out in the end, huh.

[mcfife]

Riley was with us last time. So we're Claudine and Jeremy. Christim knew Jeremy frim home. They all escaped, didn't they? And Red was with us, too.

Mostly just... correcting little things that go wrong. Missing props, song cues getting missed... that sort of thing. Make sure things go the way they should.

[musacal]

[ She then... looks to the ceiling and looks. Very tired?? ]

I've been to the Spiderman world more times I can count now just trying to keep that from going even more off the rails.

[mcfife]

I see...

[That's rather disappointing. And how Nana and he are considered to be missing.]

I feel that I would miss you if you disappeared after all that.

[stagemanagers]

[Next to it, the woman- apparently Sissi despite the quality, straightens and prepares to speak.]

I haven't had a proper picture of me taken in almost 30 years. But for this, I'll make the exception.

Éljen. It means many things in the language of the people I came to love as my own. It means long life...and...to rise up in glory.

If you can keep the spirit of that word in your heart...I know you'll stop the Wizard!

I'm here when you need me,
I live and I die with you.
I'll share all your troubles,
I'll laugh and I'll cry with you.
You can blame me and bless me,
but do not let the Wizard possess thee...

You all belong to you...

And I to me!

[musacal]

[ record scratch ]

Wait, that's the same Farrah that Riley-chan wanted to bring back to life!?

[ Wizard what the ACTUAL fuck, she knows you don't control the cast lists but still what the hell!! She's so pressed about this now!! ]

[feudalladyshandmaid]

....Wanted to what?

[musacal]

Riley-chan um... Riley-chan fell for a "revive the dead" motive during our game and killed someone to bring back the people she'd... [ ughhhh she hates talking about this but welp ] killed back home. But it didn't work.

When everything was over though... she made a deal with Boss instead to do that and that did work. But now she owes her a favor and I um... I know I just said I trusted her, but I wouldn't recommend doing that. Boss's deals always feel kinda ominous.

[mcfife]

She fell for a motive?!

[How many people died last time?!]

But she's still alive!

[musacal]

[ ..................... ]

...You also died that week, Angus-san.

[mcfife]

[musacal]

[ fklhgjdflkhjfdlk ]

A-At least wait until we're all out of this!

We have other things to worry about a-and um... he can't see me at all when I'm in that mascot suit, it's completely invisible to him! But if he sees you trying to throw a birthday party for a bunch of thin air next week he might get suspicious...!

[musacal]

My thoughts exactly.

I'm stopping him. No matter what this time. It ends for good.

[musacal]

[ She averts her eyes. ]

He sure does.

That's why I'm going to put a stop to it. No matter what.

[musacal]

[ ........................ ]

I know I definitely missed you. And everyone else.

[mayavericks]

[Maya lays a hand on his shoulder.]

To a... Pink creature, right? Wearing Claudine's clothes?

[She feels her pulse start to pick up. Did that mean.]

What about -- Did she --

[mayavericks]

The moment we're out of here, then.

[But, she stops --]

I.. received one of those through the vending machine. Do you think it applies to all Mascot Suits?

[musacal]

That um... that was how... that was how our... executions went.

[ She closes her eyes. Haha thanks, she hates recounting this. ]

The victims... would come out on the stage... and help kill their own murderers.

One of the victims that week was a "gem" being named Spinel and all gems have the power to fuse with partners and... um...

[mayavericks]

[Haha, sorry Ango, but someone is now digging her nails into his arm. She will have words, if her worst fears are true.]

What happened to Claudine, Nana?

[musacal]

[ That gets a bitter laugh out of Nana. You get her Cass. What the fuck is up with this guy. ]

You're telling me.

...How long have you guys been here by the way? Boss didn't have long to give me those kinds of details, and I get the feeling she was banished to the other side BEFORE things actually got started.

[musacal]

[ She looks directly at Maya now, her face hardened. ]

Clau-chan was the other victim. She was practicing late at night and Riley-chan stabbed her to try and undo what she did back home.

[ A pause. ]

...I failed to protect her. I failed to protect all of them.

[brokeforgood]

That fucking bitch!
