"It is a truth universally acknowledged that when HHD says he is not going to procrastinate by writing, he is most likely going to do something that wastes even more time. I'm your host, Anna!"
Lights! Cameras! Open curtains on the Orpheum Theatre stage! Before a relatively live studio audience, a single girl stands behind a podium emblazoned with a Tin Pin Masters corporate logo. She wears jeans, a loose yellow blouse under an open red hoodie, and her red hair is tied back up into a ponytail. To her left and right are eight empty seats. She addresses her audience.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! Thank you all for coming. You're in for a special treat! Tonight we are pleased to announce Let Me Know, Set Me Free - The Mailbag spin-off of the hit CYOA Let Me Go Gravity! The stars of Let Me Go Gravity will be here all month (and maybe more) to answer your burning questions!"
Anna raised her arms in welcome, and a sign above the stage lit up with "APPLAUSE", cuing the audience to follow suit until she took up the mic again.
"Some of you might be wondering: 'Which Anna is she?', to which I have to answer: 'Meh'. Does it matter? Not really. But between myself and everyone here," she said while leaning in and lowering her voice slightly, "I'm taking this gig to cover for my sister who was put on indefinite hold. These Mailbags pay well but they're by no means stable income." Leaning back to address the whole stage again, "And speaking of income, shout out to our sponsors at Tin Pin Masters! Slam On!"
The applause sign cued another bout of celebration.
"And without further ado, here are our stars!"
With a rush of air, and the blur of a speeding force field, Mike appeared center stage with a microphone and a huge smile.
"Oh snap look at that crowd! That's amazing! Hey everyone! I'm Mike Cooper, I play Mike in Let Me Go Gravity, and let me be honest here," he flipped around and pulled out a small trophy reading CYOA-Verse Awards: Best CYOA 2015, "I am so flipping honoured to be your main character, and even more honoured that you voted our CYOA for tops. Like seriously, speaking for everyone on that. And I'm so, so sorry we didn't have an acceptance speech, so consider this whole event a massive thank you to make up for that. We cool? Aight! Looking forward to answering some stuff!" He zipped off side and sat back in one of the formerly empty chairs.
Just as soon as he left, a puddle of ink began pooling center stage. One bursting pillar of fire later and Zachi was standing front and center. Her face was stone cold as usual. But then she let out a gasp and a smile broke through the facade. She sighed as she brought a microphone up to her mouth.
"Oh my god, I am so glad I can be out of character right now, because I actually don't think I could keep it up...like...oh my god. This is a panel and it's like a convention and I'm like a celebrity and...and...eeee!" she jumped in excitement, waving her arms. But upon landing, she took a deep breath, and regained her stoic composure. "My name is Zachariah Nodes, and I play Zachi in Let Me Go Gravity. I express my sincere gratitude to you all, and to show that, I will answer any and all of the questions you pose to me, regardless of how stupid they might be." And with that she gave an appreciative smirk and walked over to sit next to Mike.
A red flash of light shot out from the stage, and Sparkles teleported into view. "Hi! I play Sparkles in Let Me Go Gravity, but I can't tell you my real name yet because of spoilers, of course. I too thank you all for reading! And if you thought Zachi was happy to be out of character, then, well..."
On cue, a flurry of book pages rustled up from the ground next to Sparkles, and Jesus appeared to join her.
"Walrus hedge turnip single fishery...ha, kidding." Jesus said with a smile, "Sign language is fun and all, but I can answer your questions directly right now. I'm Jesus Sanchez and I play Jesus in Let Me Go Gravity. I don't expect many questions to come my way, but I'm here to thank you all anyways."
Sparkles and Jesus went to sit down, and right after, a blade of light crashed to the floor leaving Chris there when it withdrew. A tornado sprung up next to him, which cleared leaving So-yeon behind, currently texting on her phone.
"Hello everyone. I'm Chris MacLeod, and obviously I play Chris in Let Me Go Gravity. Like everyone else before me, I thank you all for supporting us even through multiple delays, and while I can't answer a whole lot about my character due to spoilers, I'll do my best."
He nudged So-yeon, who fumbled her phone for a start. She quickly got a hold of it and switched it in her hands for her sparkly pink microphone. "Ah! um..yes, yes I can talk for now. A bit. Haha, I'm not used to this. I'm So-yeon Song, and I play So-yeon. I'm glad you like the CYOA, I hope you like me, and I will answer your questions. Yeah...I think that's it..."
She looked around sheepishly, before waving once with a peace sign and a smile, and getting to a chair. Chris followed suit.
Anna nodded once they were in their seats, and then cued someone off stage. Rapid footsteps could be heard, and then CC sprang into view doing a cartwheel into a back-flip, quickly unholstering a microphone from the pouch on her hip in midair before landing squarely on her feet.
"I have arms again!" She yelled, standing up and pumping a fist into the air. The crowd gave her a few cheers. "I'm Claudia Casselli, and I play CC in Let Me Go Gravity. I'm like, so happy you guys like us so much. Totally flattered, like, amazing. You all rock!"
And finally, in a flurry of wings a large origami butterfly unfurled in front of CC, before folding over and vanishing, revealing Spencer at CC's side.
"Hey everyone! I'm Spencer Lavigne and I play Spence on Let Me Go Gravity."
Someone in the audience yelled "BOO!" to which Spencer laughed.
"Haha, thank you kindly sir. I know I give a good performance, don't I? I'm not actually that bad off-screen."
"Yeah you are!" Mike jeered from his seat.
Spencer snapped his fingers and pointed, and an origami rabbit pounced on Mike, knocking him backwards out of his chair. Zachi yelped a bit and edged to the side as Mike's chair fell with a crash, and Mike made a few muffled noises as he tried to get the bunny off his face. Spencer chuckled and made his way to his own seat.
As that happened, CC addressed the audience again, "Oh and if you were wondering why we don't have swimsuits on, I was totally up for it, but the producers actually said to leave it as incentive for a second season. So you guys know what you gotta do now!" She winked cheekily and ran over to grab a seat as well.
"Oh So-yeon you flirt..." Anna muttered while thumbing through her phone. But then she snapped up to attention once she noticed introductions were complete, and Mike was back in his seat and not trying to break Spencer's face.
"Right! So here's the deal!" Anna announced, "Up until around Christmas we'll be taking questions in, for the answers to come out between Christmas and New Years. You can ask them here, or you can Private Message them to HHD. You can ask questions to characters specifically, and they'll answer in character for the most part, or ask about Let Me Go Gravity in general and everyone here will do their best to answer. Either way, lets have some fun with this. Go go go with those questions!"

Mike and Zachi pulled one of the crew members over.
"I've heard there was a delay? What do you mean delay?" Mike asked the security Reaper in a monkey suit.
"We can't find Anna." Security man said with a shrug. "She just up and vanished."
"Like, in-universe vanished or 4th wall breakingly vanished?" Zachi asked with an eyebrow raised.
"Lady, who can tell what's a metaphor for what anymore?" The security Reaper handed them a stack of question cards. "Here, pass them out and prep some answers. We'll have to start the show soon regardless if she's here or not."
Mike grabbed the cards and rifled through them.
"Honestly, not as bad as I thought." He said. He paused curiously on one, unsure what the word 'doujin' meant.
Zachi peered over his shoulder, "Well it's all relative, considering the rep this show has..."
Mike looked back up at the Reaper "So...got anything else for us to do while we wait?"
Moments later:
SLAM ON!

Earlier:
So it turns out there's a lounge backstage.
"Alright, let's get our New Years on!" Sparkles cheered, opening up a cabinet. She pulled out some bottles and handed one to Jesus.
"I thought it was Christmas." Chris asked, while reclined on a nearby sofa.
"It's both really," Zachi replied, looking up from her phone from a couch in the corner, "Timey wimey pocket dimension whatever. Is that champagne?"
Footsteps outside the room stopped abruptly. Then Spencer poked his head into the room, "We can drink?"
"Fake champagne." Jesus said while examining the bottle, "As in it's sparkling fermented grape juice not from Champagne in France. I've never seen this label before though..." he noted before drifting off.
So-yeon looked in a different cabinet. "I found cups..."
More footsteps were heard running down the hall towards the Tin Pin table. Spencer's voice could be heard carry away the words "Hey guys! We have booze!"
Later that that but still earlier:
Anna teleported down onto stage, decked out in Santa hat and a tight fuzzy red strapless dress with white trim. The short skirt stopped just above her mid thighs, showing some leg between them and her similarly coloured stockings and black shoes. She floated just above the stage's surface, reaper wings extended.
"Hello everyone and thank you for your patience! We're all ready to start the show!"
She looked around at the empty auditorium, then noticed the Reaper in a monkey suit running over. He was nervous.
"Where is every-"
"On break. We'll get them back. But we have a bigger problem."
"What's that?"
"They're uh...drunk. The guests. They got into the...experimental truth serum." he said with a small wince.
Anna touched down to the floor, walked over to the Reaper, and put her hands on his shoulders.
"Get everyone back in here and double the price of our commercial spots."
Now:
"And welcome back!"
This time Anna's entrance was heralded by a mass of cheers and an explosion of fireworks. Not from the stage though, since those weren't working at the moment, but from the twin sparklers attached to the front of the glittery red corset she was currently wearing. Her new outfit was appropriately New Years themed, and was essentially a glittery corset and miniskirt with a pair of ruby slippers. After making sure her little stunt didn't set the audience on fire, she proceeded with the show.
"Sorry for the wait, but we will definitely make it up. Our guests have done us the favour of loosening themselves up a bit."
The curtains raised and the Players were sitting (more or less) in the same seats in which they were before. Chris and Zachi looked like they were trying very hard to maintain composure. Spencer and Mike seemed rather fidgetty. Jesus and Sparkles were chatting loosely and didn't even seem to notice the curtains raise, and CC and So-yeon seemed about the same as they always were.
Anna grinned, "Let's go!"
Q: If you could remove one Reaper from the game, who would it be?
Mike: One isn't enough...just get rid of the whole lot of em...
Zachi: That Game Master guy...DJ? I think? Yeah...If we got rid of him our problem's solved!
Chris: Nah, make that the Conductor. Higher up is better. Kung-fu freak...
CC: No no no! That video game girl! I hate her! She makes gothic look hot and that's no fair! Wah!
Spencer: Uh. Whoever that one with the blue hair was. He gave me the creeps.
So-yeon shrugged. Sparkles and Jesus still didn't to notice they were on air.
Q: What's the best clothing brand?
Sparkles suddenly came to attention.
Sparkles: Oh! Oh! Dragon Couture. Naturally.
Jesus:...I don't pay any attention to brands...
Mike: This Tigre Punks jacket works really well for me so...I'm gonna go with that.
Zachi: Hm...are we talking function or fashion here...I love the gizmos in that Pavo Real shop.
CC: D+B! They're new in town but I freaking love them.
Spencer: I'm planning on farming some more Noise for a Pegaso suit. Man, I'd look hella hot in that.
Zachi shuddered involuntarily.
So-yeon: Mus Rattus sweaters are really warm...wearing one right now...
Chris: I guess uh...Natural Puppy? If we're going for Game import brands and all...
Q: Do you still use public transport?
Zachi: I intend to, yes. I mean, if I manage to beat the Game once I can do it again on the low chance I die in a bus crash again.
Mike: Can I buy a car? Not if I can buy a car.
CC: I have a car! I can be your ride any day Zachi!
Jesus and Sparkles looked at each other as if mentally wagering something. Sparkles raised her ring.
Spencer: Hot!
A pillar of fire launched Spencer violently out of his chair. Sparkles rolled her eyes and turned the heals on while Jesus dropped a money pin into her opposite hand. Mike made a gentle attempt to get Zachi to sit down again. Meanwhile...
Chris: On topic, yes I will.
So-yeon nodded. Then opened her mouth.
So-yeon: It's oddly easy to forget you can talk...yeah, the bus is handy if not a bit pricey at times.
Jesus: Free for students. Convenient for me.
Q: Who brings a knife to a gunfight?
Everyone just kind of looked around confused.
Mike: Your mom?
Spencer: Mike's mom!
CC: My mom!
Jesus: Your mom is Mike's mom?
Chris: ...actually that fits my Psych quite well.
Zachi: *giggle* You're Mike's mom?
Sparkles: *giggle* Zachi is Chris?
CC: Zachi's my mom?!?
Mike: *giggle* Go home moms you're all drunk!
Q: Who brings a gun to a pin fight?
Everyone except CC: CC.
CC: Me! Me! Me!
She almost proceeded to pull her pistols out and fire at something but Spencer glomped her until she calmed down a bit.
Q: Bomb water cage mom kilo romantic jewel yugioh?
Heads turned towards Jesus.
Jesus: ...*snrk* Ahahaha she said "mom"!
*THUNK*
Mike headdesked a lot harder than he intended, which was painful and so Zachi laughed at him. Sparkles instinctively shot a ray of pink light out.
Q: GEE BILL! HOW COME YOUR MOM LETS YOU EAT TWO WIENERS?
Nobody answered because they were too busy fighting fits of laughter. After some time, Anna decided to just move on.
Q: Why is Spencer such a jerk?
Everyone was still giggling
Mike: Because *snrk* he's got something shoved up his-
Spencer's chair clattered when he stood so quickly, interrupting Mike by dropping an growling origami bear in front of him.
Spencer: Finish that sentence! Go on!
CC jumped up to hold Spencer back as Zachi grabbed Mike to prevent him from sucker-punching Spencer. Chris would have skewered the bear from above if Jesus hadn't knocked it out of the way by throwing a table at it, which got caught up in one of So-yeon's tornadoes, which threw it into the lights...
Reapers in Monkey suits piled in as the curtained closed hastily. Anna was seen talking quickly to a Reaper pin.
"No no, not him, his gun. I want his gun. No don't buy it, borrow it!"
She looked up.
"Sorry folks! Technical difficulties. We'll be right back after these messages!"
*SHING* *FLASH* *BAM* *EPIC SOUND EFFECT*
*ANIME ENTRANCE*
Yo! My name is SHOE! Join me on my quest to become a Tin Pin Master with the new set of SECRET RARE HOLOGRAPHIC TIN PINS!(while supplies last, check your local retailers)

"And we're back! Let's kick this off with some drama!"
Now floating around Anna were several floating paintings of pins all blacked out. Anna spun a rather familiar looking gun around one finger as the curtains opened and the Players were back in their seats. The looked slightly frazzled (except Sparkles who was currently smoothing her hair out), but they seemed to have calmed down. In a way that suggested they had now drunken more of whatever they had before.
Q: What's one thing you dislike about your partner?
CC: He's really quick to please. Which is nice but he feels way too easy.
Spencer: Izzis a trick question? Because I don't like trick questions...anyways, it's that I can't tell when CC's being real or not.
Chris: She uh...well I don't notice her much. So-yeon just does what I say and looks at her phone a lot.
So-yeon: ...I don't know if he thinks I'm a person or just his pact partner...
Jesus: Sparkles can be tactless but that's her problem not mine.
Sparkles: I dunno, he's kind of spaced out? I mean, we don't really talk much.
Zachi: I hate how I think I have to think for him at times or else he'll do something stupid.
Mike: I uh...think we're pretty chill. I don't like how without her entry fee I'm not seeing the real her just yet.
Mike mentally congratulated himself for landing on probably the best answer. Zachi did so as well.
Q: "Sparkles", why is Sparkles best girl?
Sparkles: *chuckling* Well I hope I'm being your little princess, but truth is I'm white mage so I'm MVP no matter what. And I'm objectively the best looking from an investment standpoint.
Q: So-yeon, why is So-yeon best girl?
So-yeon fidgeted and looked down.
So-yeon: Um...well...I'm...cute?
She didn't seem to have much else to say
Q: Zachariah, why is Zachi best girl?
Zachi: Because I'm a hot nerd that caters to the fantasies of the kind of people who read CYOAs. Can't beat that now, can you? *giggle*
Q: Claudia, why is CC actual best girl?
CC: Because I'm, like, me. And I so know how to stroke egos in more ways than one.
She finished with a wink, to much eye rolling.
Q: Mike, why is Nora best girl?
Mike shook himself
Mike: ...whatsa Nora? Best girl though is like...totally my cat Clara. She's so cute.
Q:Chris, why is your beard best girl?
Chris: Because it's beautiful, and everyone wants to stroke it.
He looked at So-yeon, who has looking back at him strangely.
Chris: Yes you do.
Q: Jesus, skyline rabbit lollipop heat blessing?
Jesus: 'cause it pays well.
He shrugged.
Jesus: Is my usual answer to anything.
Q: Spencer, what advice would you give a novice Tin Pin player in terms of learning the game and picking their first pin? Also, why is Tin Pin Blade best girl?
Spencer thumped his hand on the table and seemed to be doing a coach-type impression.
Spencer: Aight listen here. First thing you gotta know is there's a ton of pins and the game's really new so there's no metagame yet. Rare pins are probably gonna be better but we haven't seen them all in play. Alls I knows izzat you want some extra mobility like flight and then practice a whole ton. Never play the mirror because there's a whole ton of variety. I'm thinking the game is actually pretty balanced as it stands. And Tin Pin Blade is best because I swear when you Slam On the pin's a mother frakking dragon.
Q: How does Spencer feel about NTR/netorare?
Zachi burst out laughing. Nobody else seemed to catch on.
Zachi: *bwahaha* Ohmigosh you guys need to read more hentai.
Mike: Oh yeah. Definitely. Show me some time.
So-yeon blushed. Chris rolled his eyes.
Chris: I don't wanna know, do I?
Sparkles: ...I am not familiar with the word?
Jesus: It's the Japanese word for cuckolding I believe.
Sparkles: "Hentai"? wait no...the the..."netorory" thing..?
While they were sorting that out, So-yeon blushed more and CC jabbed Spencer in the side.
CC: *whispering* You into it? I can be into it.
Spencer finished with his laughter/coughing fit.
Spencer: Ahhhhh no. Next!
Q: Who do you think is the most physically attractive girl, Mike?
The stage fell silent. Mike looked around, visibly thinking.
Mike: ...um...uh...
He was also visibly fighting the urge to say his actual answer immediately.
Spencer: Hey! It's not like he has a fair choice here. CC and Sparkles flaunt it sure, but you can't see anything with So-yeon's baggy sweater! And Zachi hides her figure under that labcoat. I mean damn she's probably hot but how is Mike supposed to know?
Mike did a double take.
Spencer: They're gonna have to strip I guess. Or else he can't answer.
Between So-yeon sinking slowly into her chair and Zachi furiously clicking her pen, CC and Sparkles eyeing Mike, and Spencer and Chris giving off the most definite aura of "this is not my problem"
Mike: Uh...yeah. Thanks Spence, but I'm totally comfortable answering with Beyonce.
...
Zachi laughed.
Sparkles and CC: Boo!
Spencer: Aw c'mon man they might have done it!
And with that Anna jumped in front of the curtain.
"Wow. That was more civil than I thought it would be. Anyways, more to come right after this!"

A spotlight turns on with an audible flash. So-yeon is sitting alone on a chair in the middle of the stage. She looks rather confused. Behind her, all of the other players sit in shadow. "And welcome back!" Anna says proudly, showcasing her guest. "It's time for our guests to answer some personal questions all on their own. And it looks like So-yeon is up!" Colour started to flow into So-yeon's face. "...Why am I first?" she muttered. "Because we knew you'd be embarrassed by it! And remember, everyone else can still hear your answers. They just wont be able to get past our invisible walls. Anyhoo, let's get on with the questions!" So-yeon teetered back and forth a bit. She had probably drunk the least of the truth serum, but stage pressure seemed to make her loosen up a bit regardless. Q: What is your social link level with Chris?So-yeon: Uhm...on like a scale of 1 to 10 I'd say maybe...uh...6? Q: What do you wish your social link level is with Mike?So-yeon: ...10 Q: What do you wish your social link level is with Spence?So-yeon: ...10. Q: What do you wish your social link level is with Jesus?So-yeon: 10. Is there something wrong with wanting to be close to everyone? Q: So who do you have a crush on?So-yeon: A guy. In my English class. Um...yeah. Sorry to disappoint you guys, but in canon you don't know yet~ She said that last bit back towards her co-Players. Q: If you're a performer, did your last name influence your decision to be one?So-yeon: I, um, always considered that a coincidence.
Q: Favorite food?So-yeon: Cheesecake. Strawberry or Chocolate. Or both. Q: What's your theme song?So-yeon: Uh...that's tough. Gee by SNSD. But I'd love to say Style by Taylor Swift. I um...they're both meaningful to me. Q: How do you like being the Dandere?So-yeon: ...Is that a good thing? "It's a trope where a girl is withdrawn until you get to know her better, and then she's really sweet." Anna explains. So-yeon thinks for a while, then does her best to give a cute wink. So-yeon: You mean I'm not sweet already? I need to work harder then.

"Your turn!" Jesus was now in the hot seat. "Any particular reason you're going in this order?" He asked. Anna shrugged. "Names out of a hat." Q: Are you going to die for our sins in this CYOA?Jesus: I think that bus has passed, so to speak. I don't intend to be Erased though if that's what you're asking, and I would like to speak fluently again if at all possible.
Q: What is your social link level with Sparkie?Jesus: I think there are um...six actual metrics that measure personal acquaintance. Um...physical intimacy, duration of relationship, self-disclosure...ah, I just read it briefly. I could look it up.. His hand flits towards his pocket as if reaching for his phone, but then reconsidering.
Jesus: But I don't want to waste time so uh, I guess like 7? Q: Are you religious?Jesus: I'm supposed to be. I did Sunday school as a kid and all that but...it got away from me later on. Although seeing as there's an afterlife full of Reapers, maybe I'll re-evaluate. I don't consider my faith a priority. Q: What's your favourite book?Jesus: Beyond childhood nostalgia, I really enjoy A Clockwork Orange for its literary merit. Q: Favourite food?Jesus: Tough one. Can't go wrong with Pizza though I guess.
Q: What's your theme song?
Jesus: Eh...does it have to have words? I study a lot to soundtracks so let's go with um... Dream is Collapsing from Inception. Q: How do you like being the gay option?Jesus raised an eyebrow.
Jesus: I don't know but I think I'm doing a pretty poor job of it.

"My name's CC, not Moe!" Q: Why are your hands your entry fee?CC: Why wouldn't they be my entry fee? Your hands let you do stuff, what could be more valuable to you than that? Q: What is your social link level with Spence?CC: Oh Spency is gonna be like um...well, I'll say 9 and it's gonna be 9 whether he likes it or not. Maybe 10 by the end of the week. Q: Who is your favourite anime character? Is it C.C. from Code Geass?CC: ...Code what-ass? I don't know much about anime...I never liked the frilly dress Sailor Moon types of things. Oh! I saw this one girl from this show with giant drills. She had red hair. Um, yeah I'll go with that. Q: Favourite food?CC: Hm...Macaroni and cheese. The real kind. Home made. Q: What's your Theme Song?CC: Let's see...what's been stuck in my head recently. Hm...da da-da da-da, da da da da! Raise Your Glass. Um...I dunno the singer. Q: How do you like being the loli?CC: While there might be social implementations to glorify a fetish in a published work, I personally find my ability to physically attract people without having the body of a super-model empowering. ...I was expecting this question and rehearsed an answer. I got the big words right, right?
Anna checked her phone quickly. It seems that Tin Pin refused to buy all the additional ad-space, so they needed something to fill time between interview sessions. So suddenly, a wild contrivance appeared! Anna used Flash! It's super effective! |

"Two girls in a row?" Sparkles asked to the question asker. There was no answer for the answerer. Q: How concerned are you about your past?Sparkles: Quite a lot. It is weirder than you think. But like...am I worried about who I actually am? I think I'm a good person, but that is really just a guess. If I was bad I'd still be bad now, right? Q: What is your social link level with Jesus?Sparkles: What did he say, 7? 8? 8 sounds about right. He listens a lot so we're cool. Well, I kind of don't give him a choice but he's nice. Q: Are you related to an existing character?Sparkles: How am I supposed to know? And even if I did know, would you expect me to spoil something? I don't think so. Who would you even suspect? I am Japanese, I think, and So-yeon is Korean. By that logic maybe Zachi and CC are cousins. Or the Game Master is Mike's uncle. Q: Is your dad a Crime boss.Sparkles: I hope not...actually that might be kind of cool. It would explain a bit about my fashion style anyways. Q: Favourite Food?Sparkles: Well if I had one, it was overwritten by a Japadog. No that is not coincidence, they're the first food I remember tasting now and it was delicious. They told me seaweed is not supposed to go on a hog dog but it's yummy! Q: What's your theme song?Sparkles: Uh. Well there was music on my phone, and the one with the most listens was uh...something Japanese so...here. Mighty Long Fall by One OK Rock. There's English in it and it has a pretty cool beat. Um...yeah.
Q: How do you like being the Tsundere?Sparkles: It's not like I enjoy it or anything! Actually I don't know, Zachi just told me to say that when I was asked. I'm going to be however I am and I guess I have a character at least so that's nice. Yay. |

"You really oughta be saving the best for last." Spencer muttered. "Oh we are." Anna replied as a matter of fact.
Q: Do you like being dead?
Spencer: Dead but not Erased is fine by me. What's not to like? We don't sweat or need to use a bathroom. We don't feel excessive pain. We have Superpowers and fight monsters, and can make obscene amounts of money doing so. Heck, my superpowers aren't even the coolest ones out there but I'm still loving it. The Underground is a Video Game. Haven't you always wanted to live in a video game world? Q: What is your social link level with CC?Spencer: 10. Whatcha gonna do about it? Q: Anything to say to your h8ters?Spencer: You all complete me! No seriously, the more I get, the more significant I become. Helps you all keep running into me too. We must relate. Q: Favourite compass direction?
Spencer: ...South-west? Q: What was your entry fee?Spencer: Shhh, I'd say but then my entire character's development would unravel. Q: What's your theme song?Spencer: Ah...how about just one of my favourites. The Man with the Machine Gun, from Final Fantasy VIII. Q: How do you like being the gay option?Spencer: Oh honey, you wish. |

"And next up is Chris!" Q: wat's yer fee?Chris: I don't understand this question. Unless you're implying I'm a hitman or a prostitute, in which case, more than you can afford. For both.
Q: What is you social link level with So-yeon?Chris: Around 5 I should think. We synchronize well enough for Fusion Attacks so that's good enough for me. Q: Are you an angel?Chris: I am not, unfortunately. But if anyone is willing to make the comparison I won't argue. Q: What do you use to make you beard so luscious?Chris: Hard work and determination. And soap. Q: What was your entry fee?Chris: It's not necessary for you to know. But if I said I didn't remember, would you believe me? Q: Favourite food?Chris: I love a good omelette or Eggs Benedict. Q: What is your theme song?Chris: Hm...I'll pick Thoughts of a Dying Atheist by Muse. Q: How do you like being the gay option?Chris: Appreciative that while I am a gay option I'm not the token gay option. |

"You told Spence you were saving the best for last." "I didn't lie" Anna replied. Mike rolled his eyes, "Zachi's gonna have a field day." Q: What kind of cat is your cat?Mike: The cute kind. She's orange and kind of tabby-ish? Uh...well, she was a stray I got from a shelter, so there's no breed data. Probably a mix. Q: Do you realize how ducking meta your predicament is? You want to make your own choices, and yet you're the main character of a CYOA, so you're still being controlled and having decisions made for you. It might even be your real entry fee or some sheet. Like, if that's any more meta, then [character limit reached]Mike: Dude. Come back. You've gone so deep I can't even see you anymore! For serious though, I don't think about that kind of stuff. And in character, the thought that my free will might be my real entry fee never crossed my mind, but considering who's writing this CYOA would you really be surprised? Q: Thoughts on the harem we've slowly but surely been developing for you?Mike: I think that's less your direction and more my raw charisma. But in any case, keep 'em coming. I'm not worn out just yet. ... Mike: I also strongly disagree with your objectification of the girls I've met. Or at least Zachi would.
Q: What kind of bike is your bike?Mike: The kind with two wheels. Well, the one I have with me in the Game is a hybrid bike meant for city streets and stuff. I have a BMX-like one I borrow form the shop a lot, and if I knew I'd have to use a bike in combat, I would have switched them out.
Q: Favourite food?Mike: Tacos. Soft ones, like the real kind you get at a legit Mexican place. Q: What is your theme song? Mike: ...can I use Gangsta's Paradise ironically? What kind of question even is this? Do people normally give themselves theme songs?
Q: How do you like being the main character?Mike: I think it's pretty cool. I mean, it means I'm somehow special enough to warrant that. Just imagine Spence as the main character. Ew. Also, if I screw up it's not all on me and I still get the same glory. And sure you guys might get me Erased, sure, but you could get anyone here Erased. It's even ground as far as I'm concerned. |

Zachi didn't have any opening quips. She decided to stay in character this time, and was trying rather hard not to display too much emotion and it seemed to tire her out immensely. Q: What kind of fanfiction have you written?Zachi: I have written many genres of stories, and if you don't care for quality I'd say I've covered most things anyone sensible would imagine. Q: What is your social link level with Mike?
Zachi: 8 perhaps. If I were not inhibited by my entry fee I'd probably have maxed that out at this point. He is fairly easy to open up to. Q: Have you read this Pokemon fanfiction about something called Team Nova? Anything to say about it?
Zachi: I...believe so. Some parts of it were referred to me under the pretense of definitive Pokemon cosmology, but I paid more attention to the soap opera going on between the dozens of human characters. Quite compelling despite the cover of a forum role play.
Q: Are you a kid or a squid?Zachi: Whichever you are least attracted to. Q: Who do you find the most attractive out of the other Players?Zachi: You are going to regret not specifying male players, since I can default to Sparkles, who objectively is the best looking from an investment standpoint. Q: What do you think of these doujins featuring you and the other Players?A book landed in front of Zachi. She examined it. She swore her eye didn't twitch and her lips did not tighten in disgust. Zachi: To start, this art style is horrendous. I'm so deformed you can barely tell this is me. And are we not worth the effort for a colour comic? This is a very generic offering, and I'm disappointed that the people inspired by us aren't more creative. Also, you really ought to burn this before the more innocent of us manage to get a look. Q: What's your favourite food?Zachi: As painful as it is to say this after that last question, I love sushi. If I have to be more specific, tuna maki is generic but you can't beat a classic. Q: What is your theme song?
Zachi: Paradichlorobenzene. It's a Vocaloid song. Don't bother translating the lyrics on that, not even the Vocaloid community knows what it's about. Q: How do you like being the kuudere?Zachi: Ironically, I'm not equipped to like or dislike it. I personally prefer the dandere route in VNs, but I feel as though I perform adequately in my given role. The "dere" part is a bit implied with me however. She finished with a very quick OOC wink before returning to her usual composure. |

"Finally," Anna says, with the entire cast assembled together again, "we have a few more questions before seeing our guests off."
Q: What do you plan to do first should you win the game and get to come back to life?
Chris: ...too hard to say really.
Sparkles: Probably something along the line of appreciating my life more. If I wasn't introspective before then I will be. I think. I will probably get something to eat either way.
Mike: I'd get all these guy's numbers for real and throw a party. Uh...assuming everyone is still alive. I guess if I was alone I'd just go home to my cat-you know what I'm starting to see Spencer's side on this.
Spencer: I prefer not to think about having to go back to school thank you very much. I'd go see if I can blackmail some Reapers into letting me back in. Or at least get like a free Tin Pin set.
Jesus: Oh...yeah I have an essay to make-up. Although I'm sure there's concessions for being dead. I'm hoping I can treat all this like a bad dream after it's over.
CC: I'd do a cartwheel! Then um...call my family to see how what they've been doing while I was away.
Zachi: I would assume people's memories would be altered by the Reapers to excuse our absence in which case...I will still have a lot of explaining to do. Personally this Game came at a very inconvenient time.
So-yeon: I missed an important thing...I'll probably have to sort that out...
...
Jesus: Well this is depressing. You know what? I like Mike's plan. Let's have a party.
CC: It can be at my place!
And with that the curtains dropped and several extravagant flashes indicated the leave of our Players.
"Thank you all for reading and I hope you enjoyed! Tip your monkeys on the way out. They enjoy it." Anna said, before getting flitting behind the curtain herself.
