M Welcome everybody to Table Story's Facade. We are approaching the end of the
show. Some might call today's episode the penultimate episode. I'll let you call
her whatever you want. I think it's going to be a fairly big day
today. I hope you're all prepared. If you've never seen the show before,
this is your trigger warning. They're very well, maybe some very adult
theme. There could be some really bad stuff that's displayed today, not in
a visual manner, but in a role playing like manner, I guess,
and it could be intense, So prepare yourselves however you want to do that.
We are approaching the end, though, We're approaching the end, and
thank you all so far for the journey. On the last episode of Table
Stories Facade, Max, doctor Copeland, and Professor Charles had a conversation,
one in which Max kept a gun trained on both of them, waiting for
backup from Quinn, and interrogated them about green and what has been going on
with all of them. Extremely Suspicious of doctor Copeland, she expressed Greene's desire
for them to work together. Ada talked about the fact that everyone has made
a deal with someone or something. Max continued to struggle with increasingly violent thoughts
towards Doctor Copeland. Doctor Copeland convinced Max that you be able to help her
with Marek and might be able to bring him back from the dead, or
at least inferred that. All the while, Professor Charles was trying to get
Max on his side and possibly shoot doctor Copeland it maybe even himself. It
seems like Professor Charles just wants to get out of the situation and the fastest
means possible. Max ended up calling nine one one and the police would arrive
shortly to encounter a car accident outside the club. The three of them got
a very bad feeling something bad was coming. They felt their hackles raise and
Max used a key as rats began pouring out from the drains and the club.
They heard the horrific scratching noises, and they got out as quickly as
they could. Quinn went to meet with Detective Ci Devange about him taking doctor
Copeland's notebook back. It was a tense conversation and Si seemed hestined to part
with it. Quinn ended up convincing him too. They saw in the alley
near the bar, and Si basically broke down. She seemed distant and proceeded
to shoot up Heroin. Quinn went to destroy the notebook, but jarringly woke
up in the back of a cab on the way to Myriad. Before they
could even process what had happened, an accident occurred in front of them,
where strange creatures wearing glass armor were fighting someone with claw hands. They chased
after Quinn, and after losing them, tailed the others and found that Myriad
had some protective wards around the doors and windows, preventing entry by the creatures.
Quinn, seeing that their own symbol that they had carved into their hands
and stopped bleeding, noticed that they were sort of drained of color, and
seemingly the world was drained of color, etched those same symbols, most protective
symbols around the doors and windows into their arm. Remy talked hawked with members
of Elysium within and saw a room covered in ritualistic writing and ornamented with artifacts
similar to Genesis's shop, and seeing through the illusion, Remy saw eyes and
various iconography ingrained and the workings around the room, and third eyes being opened
on the members. They forced him down to the ground for some kind of
membership ceremony. And told him that he'd learned the truth if he became a
member. Francis Robertson, the apparent leader of this group, went through a
speech and to show a ritual, and blood was taken from his hand.
Rivulets fell into the circle around Remy struggled against his captors, and light burst
forth, throwing one violently across the room. Today we start with Max,
doctor Copeland, and Professor Charles merging from the door that Max had opened up
from myriad. You emerge into the sim into the familiar sight of the subway.
What right, this has been a pleasure. Thank you, and I
just start to walk off. Oh wait wait wait, wait, wait wait
wait wait wait. I think it would be best if we all could stay
together, because hot chick said sory, because if something happens to one of
us, then how old the other's others know? How will anyone else know?
Right? That's important? Why? Because what affects you affects me.
That's because it affects And do you like getting here? Repeatedly in the face,
yes, please do yes. Oh we are going to be firm friends.
I found him in the face. Oh my god. Okay, just
just hard, just a little just a little okay, can we can we
just try to keep a little profile for a second. Why, I'm sure
I don't need to roll for any injury here? Am all right? What
do you need? Max? I need to find a do called Eduardo?
All right, I'm going to be looking around for like the subway maps to
see which takes me off, like how to get to where I need?
And then I think about it. Mm hmmm, Dragon, the key thing?
Do you know about that? Like? What it? Why do you
I know about the key thing? Yeah? Uh no, I don't really
not yet, no raise of light from your book learning. I suspect that
it does a very similar thing. Two two, Well, I suspect that
it can that it can help you travel right, not just around in this
well yeah, there's there's not usually a fucking subway coming on the back.
I understand. But I think you're I think you are key can take us
wherever we need to go, not just here. Do you understand elsewhere too?
Metropolis? Even please roll a a disadvantage, Professor Charles. Yeah,
mm hmmm, you look uncomfortable, Professor. I'm sorry, Am I am
I supposed to be comfortable in this situation. I've just been accosted unpunched by
her. He literally asked for it. It was just I asked. I
was being polite. I suspect that your key can take us places and not
just terrestrial places. Do you not how to operate it? You brought us
here? Can you bring us it? Just? But do you decide any
doors around here? Uh? Doors? I mean where are you trying to
go? Oh yeah, there'll probably be. Yeah, I mean you came
out of one. You would have came out of probably what the equivalent of
like a maintenance room of some kind. I'm going to use the key on
the exact same door again and open it and see what's through there. Just
you just open it without the key. I'm sorry, No, with the
key. With the key, what are you thinking about when you open that?
When you again think about Eduardo? Okay, this time, I'm gonna
need a roll from you. Okay, could I do something at the same
time? Yeah? Absolutely? I rush so, Like the key is in
the in the lock, right and you've just turned it. I rush forward
and just place my hand around her hand and the key. Okay. Ew
so, since uh so, I'm gonna need two roles, Max, Your
intent is simply to use the key to go to Eduardo that I'm gonna get
first, and Professor Charles wait just yet, but you will be doing an
act under pressure role. Max. Let's see what this role is gonna be.
This is probably a see through the illusion role. I think is going
to be the closest one. Okay, oh seven, what do you think
happens? Max? When it fails? Please make your role by the way
Professor Charles liked under pressure. Okay, I think it would probably be too
simple for it to just not work, and it's just a door. I
think it would take me to, in my head, the opposite of where
I want to be. M What do you think the opposite of a DWARDO
is somebody who's no help at all? Who's no help at all? Oh?
Okay, okay, yeah, uh okay, Professor Charles, you uh
you you grab the key? Max? I think you you can uh you
can also make a roll as he grabs the key. Uh. Since he
got a partial success for the twelve let's see here, I think what is
normally Yeah, Max, give me a how Ward you handled it? If
he grabs tries to grab the key, what are you doing? That would
be gross. That'd be like, stop fucking touching me. You just try
to peel I try and shut Yeah, I try and like elbow them off.
Okay, so I think act under pressure then, Max, I don't
think that's quite calm back elbow combat sixteen, Get off my key? Yeah,
you shove them off. The door opens and there is the smell of
smoke. M hm, excuse me? Can we just like fucking cool it
with a non consensual touching? Thank you? I was touching the key.
I don't give a shit. I'm attached to the key and it's my key.
Ask if shall we shall? And I walked straight through. Max walks
through after you, and I like, head down straight through the door.
I follow. Okay, Remy, you had two goons basically grabbing you and
holding you down on the ground while this ritual membership thing was happening. You
felt this energy sort of burst forth from yourself, and lights sort of streamed
out for a second as you launched one of them across the room. They've
gone flying the elysium within members sort of crowded around in the semi circle by
the podium and this ritualistic circle that you've been placed in. What do you
do. One of them is still holding onto you, all right, so
shocked by it all. Reman's a and he's gonna try to do it again
with this other arm to the uh, the second goon. Okay, just
launch him away. I'm gonna need a roll from you first, all right,
Oh, I gotta get into a what have we got? I would
like a disadvantage role first. Okay. When you try to find that same
strength that you had, you seem to struggle with this intense feeling. What
does it feel like when you haven't had any cocaine for a while? What
is your withdrawal symptoms? Like? What do those feel like? Most likely
he's kind of just still shaking the way that he was when he saw the
blood, but in a probably more intense kind of way, and just tired,
just incredibly tired, overwhelmingly tired, even where it's just like it feels
like he can do certain things, but it usually just doesn't work out for
him. Mind is a little bit slower and just kind of this feeling,
this wave of exhaustion, like he wants to sleep all day. Okay,
it overwhelms you, Remy, You feel this intense desire you need, you
need a bump, huffs far. He's starting to sweat a little bit too.
And the second Uh, what the fuck was that? I need to
find something. I gotta get out of here. Yes, you better let
go with me. I'll do what I did to your friend. Grab him,
grab him, don't let him go, don't step, don't come near
me. I'm warning you he hasn't I'm warning you he hasn't made the deal
yet. Grab him. I didn't sign anything. Ah. The one that
you shrugged off, uh sort of uh, trying to pick themselves up off
the wall, off the ground. The other one has you, and it's
trying to grab your other arm and struggle. I would like you to please
act under pressure. All right, Okay, you managed to slip out from
this guy's grasp and you stand up. You still feel overwhelmingly, uh like
your your addiction is taking control of you. And as you stand up,
you can see that the other members of Elysium within they look strange to you.
You can see that when you look at them, you can almost see
the eyes that you saw before. Some of them open U. The one
on Lenny was closed, but you can still just see barely through the hay
that that third eye sort of opened and peering out. You can see the
eye actually moving around, trying to take in the scenes. And when you
look around and you look now at at at Francis Robertson, I would like
you to make another see through the illusion role. Ooh okay, what oh
my? This is he's rubbing his eyes. Oh this can't be real.
This is this is they say, this is what you see when you look
at Francis Robertson. Oh, oh damn or you ugly? Oh they you
gotta put that thing away, man, you might you might hurt somebody with
that. That's that's dangerous, Lenny. We gotta get out of here.
And you see Francis Robertson uh, sort of motion towards the rest of Elysium
Within, and he says, stop him. You mustn't let him leave.
He hasn't received the gift yet. You must stop this. You must stop
him. He must join us. And you see the members of Elysium Within
start to step away from their position in the semi circle, and you hear
a door open nearby. Out from the door comes Max, Professor Charles and
doctor Copeland. What oh, doc profess Oh no, new oh no,
not Maddy. I don't want no problems. Uh but Yo, there's some
fucked up ship going on right now. Guys, he's doing that loud thing
a little loudly. You get in here. This place is worried. I
used the door obviously, can you you you've been getting a gift, so
can I see him as well? He's he just sounds weird. He sounds
normal to you. Remy this Okay, Sorry it was you. I didn't.
Yeah, this guy he's just you cat to see it. This tonguehail,
hanging out man like they he cut himself and then he tried to give
me some Did you give him the naughty smarties man's cue? Whi's cut?
Where's cue? Let me call you so so EDWARDO is not here then I
don't know his name. He said weirdo to me, carg card. Can't
hear them? You mustn't let them leave life? Yeah, all right,
fuck off, and I go and open the door again. Okay. I
would like you to act under pressure, because there are several people in this
room, and they as soon as they're ordered to, they begin rushing towards
you. Okay. Professor Charles and doctor Copeland are there too. Uh oh
okay, so I think you fumble the key, the key falls onto the
ground and you accidentally ca kid it goes sliding towards the middle of the room.
I'm gonna jump for it straight away. That's mine. Okay. What
are the rest of you doing? What's a howl o you sir? Oh
say at the top and these people are grave anybody anymore therapy? They're trying
to kill us, are remuol uh head towards the key as well. But
he's also going to try to use his camera, turn the flash on and
they took your camera. Your camera would have been put off. Yeah,
when you came in, you got your robe and you took your picture and
then they took your camera and then they took the camera. No is it
anywhere close by or no, it's it's off to the side, probably by
where the robes are. Oh so ada, you're trying to sort of reason
with them, Professor Charles, what are you trying to do? So I'd
like to observe the room thing just as the stop, just to get my
bearings of what the funk's going on where we are? Okay, so,
uh, Max is trying to jump for the key. Even though people are
converging on you, Doctor Copeland is trying to reason with this person. Remy,
uh, just to be clear, what are you doing? So instead
as far as where I am, am, I in the center of the
room, and they're going towards you're in the center of the room. Yeah,
all right, and I move towards the center. I'm gonna move towards
the key as well, because I kind of pick up on which is how
I dropped. And I'm still making sense of it. But I assume when
I see Max LUNs for it, then clearly she's it's something of important.
Center might be able to allow me to get out of here through that door.
Okay, uh. In order of the way that we said everything here,
I think the fastest would be Professor Charles, give me give me your
your role for observer situation, O fool, you can asked me a question.
I will ask you what's my best way through this in the context of
I want to get out of the room that we're in. Oh, you
definitely don't want to go through the door you just came through. I think
trying to go through there's another door over by some weird robes. So I
think I will. I will be attempting to like they're coming from Max.
She's scattering towards the key. Aid is trying to get them on the couch
to analyze them, and Remy is being Remy. So I will be like
like the shape against the wall. Sorry, excuse me, sorry, awfully
sorry, to like work my way round the room and just get to the
other side of the door. Okay, to the other side of the room
on that door. Yeah, doctor Copeland, I would like you. I
guess you're trying to reason. Is this an instance where I could use fork
to come? Oh? Yeah, I'd like to use forked tongue? Sure?
Does that require uh role plus charisma? The role? Oh wow,
that's a Christal tens double tens. I believe that is the highest role so
far in the entire campaign. How what, what a time to get it?
Your tongue is weter than his? What is your name, sir?
It's he looks at you. I know you. I've seen you. You
are doctor Ada. Copeland's been watching you. I I am the leader here
of this chapter. We've inactively seeking your membership. I'm Francis Robertson. They
see it's an honor to make your acquaintance. Now you're four tongue gives you
some special abilities here. What are those? I may choose one option.
They may trust me, they're spellbound by me, or they reveal a weakness
which we can exploit later. I'd take they trust you. Help us secure
these individuals, and we will ensure your membership. I'm sure you it has
perks only if you can procure for me a book. Before we get to
this. Max and Remy are going for the key. I would like both
of you to act under pressure. These don't bump heads, eh fourteen Yeah,
okay, Uh, Max, you go for the key. Uh you
see Remy diving for it too, But I think, uh, one of
the one of these elysium Within people that's going for you blocks his way and
he just runs like head first right into them, and there's like a collision,
and uh, they're basically they've got Remy grabbed now, like one of
them has Remy sort of in a bear hug, and yeah, he's sort
of straining to hold Remy. You land near the key, however, so
does one of the members of Elysium Within. You both grab the key at
the same time. It's a bit of a tug of war situation. I
would just pull the gun out and hold it to their head. So we've
got key with one hand, gun with the other. All right, influence
other, you get a plus two? So do I put the plus in?
I forget no? Okay, eh thirteen. They let go of the
key, Thank you, right, put that back in my pants. Put
the key back in my bra Can we all just check all the fuck out?
What is with the whole capturing thing? Leave him alone his ship?
I'm not I mean, I have I mean, what is this ship?
Professor Charles act under pressure the team as you're trying to make your way like
towards the door. One of the goons, the one that actually got launched.
You don't know this, the one that got launched is probably there's some
like dry wall or something that's like on on the back that's kind of like
covering part of their robe. They they've they've they look a little woozy,
but they kind of like intercede and say, where do you think you're going?
I'm just this is not my This has nothing to do with me.
I'm I'm I'm leaving, all right, I don't think so not going anywhere.
Well, I think I think that's against some that's against the law.
She has a firearm. You have no right to keep me here. I
am leaving the law. We write the laws here, well literally with a
pen. Mister Roberts does ordeal. Why book do you speak? It's the
notebook. It was taken from me. It pertains to this and I shown
the sign on my hand. Eyes go very wide. You know that,
don't you? Why would you do this to yourself? What can you do
to help me? We have vast resources. This is the only chapter I
als. We'll find that book. He sounds like you, you know,
that promised thing where you didn't actually have the thing, but you were like,
hey, I'm sure we could sort it out in future. Could you
stop listening to ankers please. You don't want to make a deal with this
woman. She's assaulted me. The other one shot full names. You are
in trouble. What do you know about mister Hoffman? We have done business
with mister Hoffman before. They don't like him. They're not a big fan.
Uh do I have? My edge is still from my Daredevil since it's
the same scene, right, so yeah, and I'm being bear hugged right
now, So I'm gonna like it. They don't like him, But whoever
recognize any of these guys from the club? Oh uh, I would love
for you too. Mm hmmm. I think you can definitely make a role
for it. I guess it would be mm hmm observe a situation. We'll
count that as one of the questions. Eleven. Okay, you get your
one question. Yes, you do. At least five of them just from
regular club nights or from that meeting the regular Oh, definitely, not the
meeting, but from the from general club nights, probably regulars. M h.
I think I can say for certain that none of us have any great
love for mister Hoffman. He's a bit weirdly Larry kind of a weirdo.
But yeah, I don't think he's that bad of a guy. Well,
how about, like, raise your hand if you don't think he's gross and
weird. You have called us unfortunately in a difficult situation. We can help
you with this notebook, doctor Copeland. What do you say? Trust them?
Doc? Right? You said they wanted you didn't I why why are
you giving them extra stuff? I'm in Oh my god, you're ah you
paining me? Can let me try to like squirm out. It's kind of
like a little lanky, but using any edges. So for this I'm wondering
because I was gonna use it after I got out, but I actually have
a few I think I have too. Is there any so can I apply
like they get out of the way avoid an attack? Well, okay,
worried? Then I'll use that one you're gonna use? Yeah, you're able
to wiggle your way out? Basically, how do you do that? Do
you think? Probably it's like doing the most like kind of like a contortionist,
almost like you've seen it in some YouTube video before, and just like
and he flexes his arms the most of the he's ever done in his whole
life to just open up a little bit of space, and then he just
uses his legs to almost just fall backwards, you know, and slide down
the guy and then roll out of the way. Okay, uh you slide?
Hey? No? Hell who he can't catch me, And I'm gonna
run towards Professor Charles. All of us are indebted to Hoffmann. We have
no reason to continue to do his bidding, not that it's anymore. What
do you propose? I proposed I shoot him in the head with what blows
him favor. It's a good idea. The empty Chimbuuli God will not kill
Hoffman, I hear. It's a little more complicated than that. It's it's
very definitely mine and it can kill a lot of things. Bullets nineteen Wow,
Wow, Okay, can we make a treehouse? But we can have
this all clubbing? Holy Sha, that's an amazing this garden that you have.
I assume it is nothing regular. Hoffman is rather difficult to deal with.
He's leary and he smells weird. But yeah, he's supplied me with
something interesting and as far as I'm aware, he is no further use to
me. You want him gone? I want him gone? Mm hmm.
You're right that a halfman guy has a he is is? He's something?
And what do you seek in tread what you got? I mean, I
came in here looking for a dude called Eduardo. I want a fuck ton
of bullets, supreme willpower, and my friend Marrek to not be dead.
But I'm pretty sure that might be too much question mark. I'm making dudes,
why can you buy bullets? Because apparently these are weird special bullets.
I don't need you to give me the bullets. I've got a source for
bullets. Apparently she needs you to give her the bullets. No, I
don't why. That's a really good question. I don't make these rules.
If we can remove your competitor as soon, mister Hoffman, then we would
like a share of his own properties. Ooh, that could be a property
tycoon. That would be fucking cool. Do you know what you rest?
Yeah, influence other Please doctor couple. I'm gonna say you get a plus.
Don't put the plus in. I'm high fiving you through the internet.
Mm hmm. God damn what Hoffman has. Very intriguing deal. However,
I cannot promise everything that Hoffman has. I do not hold sway over everything
that Hoffman owns. If there is anything tangible, however, that we can
negotiate, then we are more than willing to do this. I would also
like passage to hear parsage to there there is not the place. You know
what that means? Yes, what do you think it means? It is
an idea. It is a thing that represents the most beautiful thing in the
world. It is every glorious song, every dying whisper from the loved one
I wanted. No, it's freaking me out, man, As I said,
it is Mardle. Place that mark on your hand belongs to one of
the death in Truls. Then take me to it sucks. You wish to
go to the abyss? Yes? Oh yes, you are made razy.
Doc is on too much placebo man, and let me Can you do it
or not? I'm sure that it can be of range? All right,
it looks like it looks like I'm in. These guys can give you anything
you want, just ask for what you need, so limited. It's always
at a cost, that's if that's what I think it is. I've been
to horrible places. If that's what I think it is. And maybe I
don't know. You guys must maybe be stronger minded than I am. But
I shouldn't want to go back to ship all right? Maris friend like,
can you bring him back? Bring him back? He was deceased from here.
I am a god. Can you take her to him? Mm hmm,
that's not what I asked. I want him back here with me.
I thought you turned out to deliver that ada. Remember the deal in the
club? Oh, come on, we both know that was bullshit. Can
you separate him from his passenger. Yes, oh yes, what do you
mean? Yeah? As a passenger? Well, like crabs something like that.
That's not your choice to ask for ida you would listen to these creatures,
Anthony. No, I want to give you what you want. I
just have to find it. I have gotten so much of what I want.
There is the last thing you need. There's a sort of satisfied sounding
manner to the way that your passengers speaking. I think you can recognize it
without a role. Did you like hearing about the death angels? Anthony?
Don't you wonder what they are? Watch? Have death angels roll disadvantage for
me? Please? What? Mh? I'm trying to give you watching nith
and you're doing a good job. And how do we make it end?
You need to learn more, Anthony? What are these death angels? Truly?
You are curious. You must know more before you can find an end.
I've gone past curiosity in this a necessity. It is a necessity,
Anthony. You want me to follow her to the abyss. I want you
to learn the truth, Anthony, And then and only then will you be
able to to find an end. Father down the rabbit all we go,
then h where are we going, Ada? And why we are going to
a place that I've felt before that I've very nearly been to. I want
to go back into the ampas Why I want. I wants to commune with
it, with its with its master. You speak to commune with the master
of the abyss go lab. Yeah, oh I have, I mean I
have. You know, I wish to commune with him as well. And
I'm bringing Lenny with me. Wait, no, no, no, hot
chick said, keep him safe or something. Well, I'm a old man,
I got a man up, and I've been there before. I can
do it again. Been what what? There's a dark dark place, Max,
the dark dark place, show me the truth. But I wasn't ready,
But I think I'm ready now. Geez, that's right, remy steal
yourself. I'll ready own myself, so I don't really need to steal anything
about myself. I I of this body. Wow, So you don't have
to worry about that. That's good. That's yeah, that's good. Okay,
as long as we gotta find cute too. But oh oh, so
it's this is like some sort of fucked up somemmer holiday, is it?
Because I am not on board well, then you can stay here and hang
out with these guys. Cool, as long as I don't have to get
punched anymore. My face still hurts. Oh, there's one more of us
of our number, they're not present. What does this have to do with
the deal? I want them? Where are they? I don't know,
but I can find them. I want them to come with me in the
APIs very well. We will try to locate Hofman. He is not easy
to find. I We'll find him. My friend is a detective. They're
really good at finding things. I usually find. I just hang out at
the club and there's this weird smell and there is I will tell you so,
regardless of the deal that we make points towards Remy and he says he
is not included, will he be coming with us to the abyss and then
returning? No? So what wait? You you are what telling him what
to do? Hardly what you will towards I kind of I kind of joined
as well. Oh so you want to, So that's all cool. I'm
just trying to save my brother. That song, But you want to,
that's fine, you can have it. But he belongs to our whoa why
that is actually for me? To steal myself. And now they're trying to
steal me. This this isn't very Wait a minute, hold up, and
I kind of gestured to Lenny, or at least I don't know how close
so far he is. Lenny's probably just amongst some of the people. Okay,
he hasn't made any sort of oh huh, yeah, he hasn't done
anything significant, not not to the point where i'd have you read a person
mm hmm, all right, doesn't even see him. I think he's lost.
I think, I mean, if this is the only way, I
mean, it's really fucking simple. Do you want to stay here with these
these people, I'm gonna I'm gonna stay with with my brother whatever we don't.
I think these people are getting board to get bored again. All right,
then, what's our first step? You say that there is another that
must join you. I assume it would be confined them. Very well,
we will begin our search for hofferm him. As I said, he is
not an easy individual to locate. The seem all right, Well, I
pull out the business card that he gave me. Is that no use?
Can you not just call a phone number? He's going to take the business
card and look at it. And by the way, remy, every interaction
with this guy is so off putting towards you because they seem to be treating
him like a normal person. But you can see this. Yeah, I'm
like, that's why I didn't go anywhere near him. I at first was
going to go towards the professor, but now I'm just trying to like scope
out to see where Lenny is and if it doesn't seem like they're getting it,
you know, so I'm over here just kind of like losing my ship,
and I guess I'm trying to keep it together in the sense of just
go with the flow. That's great. Why don't you try and keep it
together for me? Oh very well, Wow, that's it, yo,
let's go keeping it together. Yeah, that's what it sounds like. That's
exactly what the sound is, the calming sound of that. Yeah, you
great your teeth, Galaxy say the course, dam freaking galaxy, ring Zone.
We all want to sound soundtrack for when we you know, when we
successful and make the timing. The timing for music in this show is like
in more ways than one. Once we find this other member of our of
our group, how do we return, How do we find you again,
I suppose the same way that you came, or you can simply drive here.
Okay, all right, very well, are we going to talk about
my bullets and dead friend and supreme executive power over the world. There is
nothing we can do about your dead friend. However, if you wish to
say him again, that is something perhaps we can range. That doesn't make
any sense. That doesn't make any sense. You don't know much, do
you, Max. I know how to use a gun and my fists and
open a bar. That's pretty much all I need. That key that you
have is very intriguing, isn't it? Just where did you find it?
I earned it? Did you now? Yeah? Did she gives you the
key? I don't think I need to answer any more questions. I think
it's getting weirdly invasive. And I thought we were doing some sort of business
deal where I made that Hoffman guy go bye bye. But if we're not
going to do that, I need to go out and get some AMMO.
Perhaps if I can look at the gun aha, Nah, it will be
difficult to find bullets if I do not know what kind of gun it is.
What kind of gun can end anything? I think I need a roll.
Mm hmmm, Oh no influence other again? Oh no, not no,
I do not know. But perhaps if I see the garden then we
may be able to arrange bullets before we leave. I need you to recognize
that none of this will take place. We will not We will not take
action against Hoffman without our other member coming with us. I'm sorry, I've
got to do with your little joy ride. You are not in charge of
who takes care of Hoffman. They're helping me rid of. There's helping us
get rid of half get rid of. Look, apart from being a bit
creepy, I'm not that fussed about the dude, Like who cares? But
if it's going to get me out of this situation, why do you need
her? Ada? You seem incredibly keen for all of us to be together
in a place. You want us all together. Excuse me if that doesn't
sound the slightest bit suspicious. Je's very curious, Anthony. You are astute
as always. Perhaps you should find out everything that you can. You can't
tell me that you're not burning with curiosity. No, no, no,
a really unexplored place. That's not how it works. You see, I
ask a question you answered the question. I asked, why do you need
Quinn to be with us? Probably once them to stab another heart some I'm
crazy like that you want it's a whole thing, Max, You want many
a buss. You get on a bus and you go for a ride.
Why do you need this all to come along? Aid, It's a very
simple question. If you're not hiding something, you simply repeat the truth.
I don't see what any of this has to do with taking care of Hoffman.
It has nothing to do with taking care of Hoffman. That's not the
question I'm asking Aida. It's very simple. Why do we l have to
go together? I I want you to see it too, because because I
think you're really gonna like it so much, so much a fucking chair to
talk about friendship, because that's not Max. No one needs punching right now.
Just hold I'm sorry of the place I was very clear disadvantage for me
Max, mm hmm okay, now live yeah, Max, going to type
something to you and private chat okay, beyond the zoom chat. So sorry,
Ada, forgive me if I'm not entirely clear on how my opinion of
the ABYSS changes your experience of it, your lack of understanding of what lives
beyond this realm shouldn't factor into your decision on whether or not to go.
Oh, I completely agree. We're not talking about my decision. Ada,
deflect, deflect, deflect. Why do you want us all there? I
grab him by the arm, like the top of his arm, pro pestor
Charles, and I just start squeezing very gently to start with. But it's
not moving, and it's getting harder and harder and harder. Yes, mikes,
what was that about? Hold? You've gone very literal. I just
it's fucking annoying, isn't it. Do you trust her? Funck off?
Do you trust her? Max? Stop it because because I know what you're
doing, I don't know. Just squeeze a little bit harder, Max.
I'm the only one here who's not doing anything other than I'm the fucking sick
of people trying to manipulate me. I'm the woman, the fucking gun,
other one that can take Hoffman out. I own the club. Can somebody
give me some fucking respect? And I just break his fucking arm. Uh
yeah, go ahead and be violent please? Oh yeah? Twelve mm hmm
ok you uh you can all hear the sound of Professor Charles's arm breaking and
I think it's supposed to bend that way, and uh in doing so,
Max, I think that you can all see this scheme rising off of Max
and from underneath her shirt crawling out into exposed skin. You can see this
inky blackness A jud Jesus. So all you have to do is been nice
in English and say sorry and all let go at right now? Who who?
Max? So look the fuck up as well? Go on, make
some words. I'm really good at them, aren't you. Mh Heads or
tails? What heads or tails? You can just say sorry or heads?
All tails? And I just look her in the eye. I just choose
not to play at all. Rest Charles endure injury for me, by the
way, Yeah, their team, Okay, you have a serious wound,
your arm is broken. Yeah. Oh, I'll pull a coin out of
my pocket and I'm just gonna start flipping it. I'm watching him all right.
Well, yeah, we'll meet Hoffman in the abyss, lure him there
and we'll take care of him. Are you speaking to Francis Robertson? Mm
hmmm, I do nor if you will be able to meet Hoffman nearbyss,
but we will locate here eventually. All right, pending Halfman down to any
location will be difficult. It won't take resources. All right. Well,
let's begin very well. Emotions towards some of the members of Elysium within.
You can see that they begin to walk towards the robes and the door that
way. A few of the other ones head towards remy. Hey, Hey,
hey, look man, we have a good finished check. I'm not
gonna move. I just I don't. I don't want my arm broken either.
I'm I'm I'm cool. I just want to be by my bro.
You don't have to hold me. I got this. I promise. I'm
a man of my word. Have at least ten k Instagram followers. That's
probably a nine k by now, because I haven't posted in a long time.
I'm struggling to see how those two things are correlated. Well, I'm
a trustworthy guy. People like me. Ah, I'm a likable guy.
And then I do my kid charismatic charismatic aura. Oh okay, all right,
so it should be a soul rule. I'm like, okay, ah,
damn it. So when I fail, choose one option please from the
charismatic aural list. There, I think I have it here already so advanced.
All right, So I will change a person or make opponents perceive you
as harmless and ignore you for as long as you remain in the background and
do not act against them. So I'll be like by Lenny, just like
care. I am glad that we were able to make you a member before
you joined her. Y, I'm glad to I apologize for earlier. I
just sometimes get a little bit queasy around the song, around the sight of
blood. That's all this now the first time, mister slick turner. As
for the rest of you, preparations have begun. You should locate your as
a remember, all right, I can do that. He motions towards the
door near the robes. All right. You don't happen to have any small
animals, do you? Mammals you ask the weirdest fucking questions. Of course,
with you? What wonder there are rituals that need to be completed?
Oh, I wonder if I'm not sam with this. This is gross a
chicken or a goat? Goat goat? Absolutely very well. Oh hell is
see what she does. I don't want to be anywhere near it. Welcome
Tom with him. Mh. I'm going to go. I'm just gonna go.
We need you, Max, never discuss that we need you to take
care of Halfman. We're all taking care of Hoffman, are you? Are
you though? Yes? Because I don't. I don't want to. I
need to go and stock up on some AMMO. You can be rid of
all of this. You value your freedom, don't you. I'll tell you.
I'll tell you what I'll Once I've stocked up, I'll come back.
We can talk about some sort of business deal. Then are you content with
someone lording over your life like that? What as opposed to you doing it?
I'm not lording over anything. I'm offering you freedom, Max, freedom
to step into what sounds really fucking weird along with fun, fun, animal
murder. I'm not sure I want to be part of this club. I
think I just want to be part of my own club. All right,
Fine, you don't need to go to the Abyss, none of you do.
I do. It's just me cool, one of our member. But
Hoffman needs to go. Well, we can talk about that when you get
back. Our ideal of remains in effect. It is still upon you to
end Hoffman, regardless of the visual and this purchase a patron. I think
we just became best friends, you know, professor okay, Man like you
seem kind of quiet for a head of having your arm broken. Man,
I'm fine and we have fine. Does anybody here you crying? Specialize?
Specialize? I just did this thing. I specialize in. Who hurt you?
Max? Fuck off? Look? Why are you such a goddamn boar?
We don't have to do this, just we do. Just can't do
this? What's wrong? Max? You know that a genuine feeling in your
life other than anger? What are you doing? Anthony? I'm playing hm
well, not to find out more. I antagonize her. I mean it's
a little bit stereotypical defense mechanism, manga. Oh you're not enjoying it.
It's just a bit obvious. So key not to be manipulated, so key
not to be controlled. It's clear as day. Oh my god. The
plan is as follows. We kill Hoffman, you all get what you want.
No follows, it's we are Are you honestly content just following orders from
Hoffman? I don't follow orders from anyone. You want us to swap Hoffman
for you? Do you? Aidah? No, I'm offering your freedom.
Ah, You're wrapping it up in a bow. Control under the illusion of
freedom, and you both just none of this. You don't know me anything.
You don't know you fucking write I professor or anything. You don't owe
anyone anything, huh. And you do not owe Hoffman anything. But he
will come after you. He'll come after all of us eventually. I'mkay on
it. Let's take down the album before it spreads. What do you think
I'm trying to day? Well, then let's do it together. We can
help each other do it. But I need you to help offer me something.
I need anything, man, anything, What do you want? I
just told him you want control. I think I said supreme executive control over
the world, but that might be pushing it a bit. Failing that brings
somebody back from the dead and unlimited AMMO. Doesn't matter what world what I
was taking the pace? Does somebody like surgically remove your humor gland? You
can have control. I've got control. Look, I'm wielding it now.
You know what you didn't get your name? Thank you for your hospitality.
This has been great fun. I will come back later and we can discuss
the whole Hoffman thing. But she currently has got a fuck all to do
with me, Max, you don't mind, can you get me a no
when you come back? If you're going to the club, does everybody think
I can get hold of drugs? Something about my face? Thought it was
a club thing. You know, that's usually where you know we kick people
out for that, right, wink likemys like winking like yep, right,
what gotta keep them to keep the drugs out of the club? Yeah yeah,
bring them to Remy. Yeah yeah, So just if you don't mind,
if tell you what, I'll have a dig around in lost property for
you, all right, see if somebody has left them along with some jym
socks and the fans that they pissed in. None of them are really paying
too much attention to Professor Charles. But there's a tremor Professor Charles. And
you hear a strange voice come from Professor Charles's mouth. You've heard it before,
Doctor Couple, you will speak more about the Death Angels. Tell me
of his balls finally dropped? Holy for fuck? Whoa professor prop Oh?
Then he kind of just backs away slowly like pulls Remy. Okay, Death
Angels. While he's wrong with this rod, he has a passenger. I
want my book? You want me to come to the abyss. I needs
my book? Wait what it's real? The real? What? No,
M I want my book. We can promise more than the book, passenger,
we can take you there. You're not talking to the passenger, You're
talking to me. You can hear us though, Candy, the book you
read at the club, I want it back. But he wants books.
As everybody's stealing books out here. It's just books. You can keep it,
you too, before it's like what the kill hoffman? Get the book?
I need the book offering things that I've got. Can you have any
bargaining chips of your own? I've got to go. I don't need to
keep the book. I just want to read the book. I'm not a
library. Why because I'd like to go into the abyss knowing some goddamn answers
huhm, blindly follow her. If you want? What's it worth? Whatever
you want? Max? Do you have anything? Because it doesn't look like
you've got a lot. I mean the floppy arm is not really my kind
of thing. Yes or no? Well the current deal? Give you something
that I have in exchange for nothing? No? No, no, not
give lend still nothing in it for me, but the other guy back on?
Mm hmm, what do you want? Now? Put the other guy
back on? He might have something. What do you want? Mass,
I am dealing with this, obviously not you're literally arguing with yourself. This
is fucking brilliant. Okay, So apparently you'd like to borrow something of mine.
Yes, what's it worth? Bullets for your gun? There we go.
Bullets first, then book? How many three? Ah? Now I've
got a guy who's going to give me five. So you've got to do
better than that. Don't give us something for nothing. You have nothing to
border pages for bullets. I will give you one bullet a page. Max.
Well, it's a very long book. It's not that long. I've
read it. I think we've got a deal. I'd love to shake hands,
but it's a little ineffective. That means nervous laughing along a little bit.
And this has been just a fucking pleasure, absolute pleasure. Yeah.
I'm glad to have been part of the moral support here. Yeah, for
a great another great deal. That's not a deal. I have to steal
one page out of the book and hand it to the professor one bullet please,
And I look down at the page and see what it is. Okay,
I would like you to roll me a D one hundred. Please.
The book isn't actually this long, but I have to choose a page somehow.
Yeah, okay, you can open up the Cultural Book the page two
forty four and you can begin to read that just to myself to you.
I think it would be more effective if you read it to the audience.
But it's up to you if you want to read it out loud or not.
Is there any particular because it just because it's split up on this page,
is there any particular one? You can start wherever you like? M
hm, And just to confirm, is this going to be out loud?
Can we hear it? Robney a disadvantage? Let's make the choice for you.
Okay, thirteen, it's up to you. It's not out loud,
but do me a favor and read it to the for the audience. Okay.
Our souls are truncated, misled, and bewildered in their captivity. Their
anguish manifests itself in various ways, and modern psychiatry has chosen to name and
diagnose some of these hallucinations a form of psychotic symptom hallucinations are apparently external stimulations
created solely by the mind and can affect all five senses. The most common
form of hallucination is hearing voices, which can be directed towards yourself or something
you overhear. Occasionally, the voices can be benevolent in nature, but can
also be imperative, cautioning, punishing, and scolding. Sometimes the voices can
make the person commit destructive acts towards themselves or others. Tactile hallucinations can be
a sense of being touched or unpleasant physical sensations, such as wings growing from
your back or skin peeling off. Visual hallucinations often make you see how reality
is being distorted, seeing things that are not there and having trouble distinguishing them
from reality. You start peering through the illusion's veil. While auditory hallucinations are
more connected to beings trying to contact you and enter into elysium. There may
be beings from inferno, the underworld, or limbo. Yeah. For some,
these entities provide them with a sense of security and their only connection with
the outside world. Thus they may refuse to take medication fearing their companions might
disappear. That's what a snippet. There's a lot of really great texts in
this book. You'd see Professor Charles holding the page very tightly. If anyone
is looking at him, you can try and read a person. Yeah,
I definitely will. We're all looking at him. Yeah. Wow, Wow,
what's another six? Give us another six? Come on, turn it
upside down, turn it upside down? Oh do no want any of this?
Oh? Man, she was reading upside down. I think that I
think that Professor Charles is showing nothing on the outside. It just looks like
he's reading this page very diligently. I have sent you a private message one.
Yeah, and I think you'll see the professor read the page, looking
at it long enough that he almost could have read it three times. And
then he looks up to Max. Mm hmmmm, thank you Max. No
a bullet, yes to dog? No, but would you like a bullet?
Max? I would like you to provide me with a bullet that I
can use in my gun. Yeah, then I need the gun. No,
why does everybody keep fucking asking that you don't know what it is to
you? Max? Fuck off? I can only make bullets with the gun.
That's how it works. The No, then you're going to have a
very difficult time putting down anyone because you're going to have to give that gun
to someone to get a bullets. That's a good place for us to take
our break. That's very overdue. Sorry, I couldn't stop the scene.
It was too good. You can't too sorry. Sorry. Yeah, we're
probably going to be going late today more sorry, Thank you everybody so much
for watching thus far. We do have to take a break. You need
to let the cast breathe and use the bathroom, et cetera. So we're
gonna We're gonna be back in just a few minutes. Hang tight for more
of Table Stories Facade. Make sure you check out the Table Story Twitter as
well. I don't know if anybody reads that or anything. We should probably
keep an eye on it. And uh yeah, if you haven't done so,
please make sure you follow all these lovely people follows a free go make
it happen. We'll be back in just a few minutes. Hanging tight for
more of Table Stories Facade. Welcome back everybody to Table Stories Facade. We
return to Quinn. It was outside myriad Quinn. Yes, you had start
into how are you doing this? You're trying to draw or cut these symbols
into your arm as you saw around the door, just like we have a
role for that. At the end of the last session, I can't remember,
yes, okay, and I started doing said thing. I'm not like
trying to you know, stab or gouge myself, but I am doing you
know, kind of that light scrape okay, like cat scratches. Almost.
There's no pain when you do this, really no, Okay, it's fucking
weird. Also, no blood that comes out. Okay. Do I feel
anything else other than just no pain and no blood? You can maybe feel
slight sensation just the act of it on okay, Okay, I would like
an act under pressure please. As you try and copy these symbols, and
okay, you have difficulty copying them exactly. You've made a few mistakes.
You think you look at it and you're probably trying to read it on your
I assume you're right handed, so it would be your left arm. Yeah,
okay, you draw it on the inside of your forearm, okay,
and like right here, probably so you have a bone there that you can
like keep steady. You're looking at the symbols, and I think you can
tell you didn't get it exactly right? Okay? Can I correct them if
I know that I didn't get them right? I don't know if you can
you kind of carve these into your skin. I don't know if there's an
eraser for that. No, there isn't. But I'm sure you could just
do try again, I guess, until you get it right, because otherwise
it's not going to work. Sure, I guess. I guess you can
try act under pressure. We're going to say you have a minus two though,
Okay, I still have the because it's the same scene. So if
I had plus forwards on my previous role, I could still use those,
right, Oh yeah, absolutely, okay, so then they would cancel each
other out. Six. I think you've met made made it worse. Okay,
Okay, nothing seems to happen. You've seen these these creatures which,
by the way, i'll show this for the audience, but they look like
this. This is what you saw. WHOA, holy crap, No thanks,
are they still there? They've moved off you. You basically saw them
rush off. Okay, and before me, is this weird? Midway point?
Right, this sort of nexus of you saw you were able to see
what looked like roads of varying kinds emanating from this almost like a hub of
sorts. Okay, are there any symbols or anything for me to look at,
like, look, where do these roads go? Can I can I
see like up in the sky, like where they lead or where they going?
Good question? You're trying to see if you can and associate the roads
with something, right, yeah, or like because you said they like stretch
out and into the sky, like where are they going? Do they just
infinitely go on forever? I think from your perception it would seem like that.
Okay. And there's no like Alice in Wonderland style signpost or anything telling
me what goes where? Yeah, definitely not. The roads do look different,
though, I think you see a sort of wide variety. Some look
kind of gothic, some look very brutalist, some look are you kidding?
Regal? Okay, holy shit? Okay? Do I I would like to
try to I mean, this is already seeing through the illusion, but am
I able to try to do that to see if I feel anything on one
of these roads, like do if I feel a certain way towards one of
them, like I've been there before? Or I would like to point out
that the roads seem to be emanating from myriad Yeah, and twisting like left
and right and up into the sky. Right, all twisty and weird and
sort of almost escher painting. Yeah, sort of like, Okay, it
doesn't make sense, like it probablyably fucks with your head, like when you
look at it, you know, it's one of those things that just hurts
your brain. I think you can Yeah, go ahead, why not?
Does that see through the illusion or observe a situation? Or I think it
would probably be investigate Okay, fifteen can ask me two questions from the investigatorst
I guess what does my gut feel? Okay? Each of these roads you
haven't learned about different places, but Aida has talked some about different planes of
existence. I think this is like different realities like that. This definitely taking
their roads take you to different realities. Holy fuck? So so I was
already feeling that way. Does one feel familiar to me? Is what I
was like, potentially my noir world? I can I can say that we
can substitute one of your questions, uh, for an answer to that?
Is that? Okay? You mean one of my other yeah, other questions?
Yeah? Or do you want to ask one of the ones that are
there. I'll just ask one of the other ones that are here. I
guess, is there anything that's being hidden from me or that I'm missing?
I think wrong list investigate, so the three questions. Sorry, I thought
I had investigate. Is there anything weird about what I'm investigating? I mean,
there's an obvious answer, but I'm trying to expand on it. The
obvious answer is yes, absolutely, and I think that there is. I'm
trying to remember what I think you're putting two and two together. And I
think that you can assume that Max has a key that allows her to take
these roads. Yeah, she owns this place. She owns this place.
Fuck, okay, I okay, I take a road. The roads begin
in Myriad. You have no way to gain access to a road. So
when they leave from Myriad, do they leave from like the roof or something.
I think it'd be like a weird sort of interpretation. I don't know
if it's easily explainable. It's, you know, similar to an sure painting.
How you look at it and you're like, wait a minute, that
doesn't make any sense. Yeah, okay, Like the roads appear to be
emanating from myriad in some way. But every time you try to chase the
lines, yeah and follow it, you can't. Okay, just starts to
like you physically feel pain, like you get a headache. Okay, Okay,
then I I I guess I will I'm leaving. Then if I can't
take these roads, then I guess what happened to your book? Yeah,
I'd like to go back, but the cab you said, there was no
way to like take the same cab back. Right. There was a there
was an accident. There's probably cars that are you know, probably circling ring.
There's there's cops that are there that are trying to like figure this out.
And uh, you still see like basically these these creatures like spreading out
and I think you can read a person for me, Okay, yeah,
eight mm hmmm. You can't really tell what they're doing, but they have
spread out and are sort of like looking through the crowd. The oh,
is this read a crowd? Because I have a move for that. It
is. Okay, what's your bonus on that? Is it the same role?
Is it a intuition? It's perception? Actually, yes, so it's
intuition. Two different those are two different stats. Roll me U roll me
a perception then oh okay, that's better. Yeah, okay, it just
as you're a master at gathering information or overhearing information in crowds, so you
can't understand these guys. There's a lot of that's going on. However,
Uh, do you think that they're looking for you? Yeah, because one
of them is probably something else, something else. They're here for some kind
of reason, and that that guy with the clause, he's nowhere to be
seen. There's probably just evidence. Yeah, yeah, like they killed him.
Okay, am I able to hide and watch them? Yes? Absolutely,
Yeah, I would like to do that for a little bit because if
if they're looking for something, they might be looking for my book, okay,
keybook. So you stay for a few minutes and it's this weird distortion
because they're the people that are here can't seem to notice these creatures, right,
And there's an a there's basically like some evidence of an accident, like
you can see cops are trying to direct traffic, and like you know,
like trying to signal people, and there's like a tow truck that's trying to
make its way in and pull a car out, and it's it's uh,
it's very strange and off putting for you. I think for sure the creatures
that have spread out, uh probably looking for you, looking for something else.
There's several that are that make their way back to myriad, and it
might be the same ones that you saw before. But they're circling the club
and there's an intense conversation that's happened. Probably you know you you were by
like the staff entrance before there's a front entrance for the club. They're probably
by the front interest and you just see them like yelling at each other.
One of them is bigger and just shoves the other one backwards and points a
finger at it and just and screaming at this at this other thing. It's
sort of cowering at this at this other one, and you get the impression
that it's chastising it for sure, like it's done something wrong. And I
think that you can tell like they desperately want to get into the club and
they can't. Can I take a really shitty two megapixel picture with my flip
phone? Yeah, absolutely, my old brick from the phone. I would
like you when you take this picture to try and see through the illusion.
Eleven Okay, you take the picture. The camera takes the picture of partially
of what you see and partially of reality. You can see a tear.
Whoa, holy shit, Okay, and then I pocket it. And then
I'm gonna back up, sneak into the subway, the nearest station to get
out of here, and head back to the alleyway, I guess, and
I'll probably call Cy on the phone. Sy. Yeah, I c h
listen. I know we kind of like had a h a blow up there
and then I was like, I'll call you later, don't don't, you
know, talk to me until I'm ready. Uh, what happened after that?
What do you mean? I mean? Did did you leave? Yeah?
Okay, I don't know what you mean. I mean I left,
Yeah, I just I don't. I don't remember what happened after you left
or shortly before you left. I didn't go back, that's what you're asking.
No, I'm not I'm not applying that. I'm I'm I'm telling you
that I don't remember what happened after we shouted at each other and I tried
to destroy the book, but I know I don't have it, and I
woke up somewhere else right now, by the myriad the club. Yeah,
and I'm seeing some weird shit man like alternate reality pathways coming from the club,
some esher crap. Yeah. I don't know what's going on. But
more importantly, I don't have the book. I know you don't. I'm
not saying that you do. But can you help me or not? What
can I help? I don't know. Do you know anything as to like
anything that could do that? Like was I possessed or what? I mean,
there's all kinds of things that could do it. I mean, Quinn,
I don't know everything. You know more than me, and that's a
start. Ah Well, I mean there's there's people that can do it.
There's there's uh, I mean there's some say the psychics, really they can
fuck with your mind. Could Green do that? Maybe? I don't.
She's a lot different than I thought she was, Quinn. Yeah, I
think everybody is. And I just hang out. Fuck, I get onto
the subway and I head back to the alleyway. Please roll a disadvantage for
me eleven. Okay, get on the subway. You're the only one in
this car that's fucking weird. Yeah it is. That's super weird, but
weird it's a Sunday night, not exactly a busy time on the subway,
but it's still New York. There should be, you know, at least
a couple. Yeah, yeah, they should. I rubbed my arm.
Okay, I'm maybe holding my phone and kind of maybe tapping it against my
my other hand. I'm starting to get a little anxious. It's fine,
as fine as fine. Oh no, no, not today. The lights
in the car begin to go out, one at a time. Fucking technology,
man. Come on. No no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, come the buck on.
When you look to one side of the car, you can see a figure
blocking the door leading to the next car. Oh fuck, oh fuck.
When you look on the other side, you can see a very similar figure,
oh fuck, blocking the other exit to the next car. Okay,
okay, okay, right, I guess this isn't some fucking Morpheus bullshit.
Right, okay, okay, I'm gonna make a move quick thinker, please,
okay, I'd like to get out of here. Reason reason, reason,
yeah, thirteen, okay, ten to thirteen. Choose up to two
options at any time during this mission. You can choose one option or sorry.
Two options. Options are remember something that's advantageous in a negotiation. You
can ask the GM what it is. You possess some sticky some equipment that
you can use to get out of a sticky situation. You ask the GM
what it is. Or you have a special field training that would be useful
being past one of your obstacles, ask the GM what it is. Sorry,
just give me a second. No, it's okay, okay. So
let's see. You said the move was quick thinker. Yeah, which one
are you choosing? Which ones are you choosing? It says at any time
I can, So you're holding off for now? Yeah, unless I can
do I would like to know the special training that I have that can be
useful in getting past one of these obstacles. Which are these freaky people have
surely come to collect me? Mm hmmmm. I would suggest what makes the
most sense in terms of training that you would have. Uh not guns,
that's for damn sure. I don't like them. Uh. To me,
it's your brain what they do to me, it's your brain and your your
your You've got investigation skills. You have your brain and your mouth basically your
your You can talk your way out, or you can try and think your
way out. I'm actually not very good at talking, like acting under pressure.
The coolest fast talker thing is not a skill set I have at all.
Yeh, so I have to quick think my way out. Yeah I
think, uh, I think thinking your way out is your your only kind
of option right now? Okay, then I will investigate or observe a situation
to see how I can get the hell out of here. Observe a situation,
yeah, eleven. Okay, now, yeah, let's assume. Let's
assume that you you can basically add to this role. I'll say, roll
an extra D six. No, no, it's a D ten for this
system. Make it a D ten. Okay, we'll count this as your
special skill or okay, fifteen. Okay, you can ask me some questions
from the observer situation. Lest there you get two questions. Okay, oh
what is my biggest my best way through this? They're blocking both of the
exits. Yes, for the train to go to the next car. But
I'm dead, So can I just go through the window. I don't think
you know what would happen to you if you do that? Okay, I
didn't feel any pain, no blood came out, but you don't know what
would happen to you if you do that. It's always a possibility to try.
However, I will tell you that those windows are extremely difficult to break
through or do anything. They're meant for crazy people on the subway. Yeah,
there is a fire exit though, always, yes, that I can
pull. Yeah, okay, fire exit is a possibility. Okay, So
is that my best way through this? You're not sure. I think you
don't have enough information just yet. It is a way through this, your
best way through this? I think you need more information first, Okay,
your current information? Yeah? Okay, what can I use to my advantage?
And if you say, quick think in my brain one more time,
so help me whack. I almost want to do it now. I would
suggest to you that you can potentially use the marks on your arm. Okay,
you advantage? Okay? Great? Either side? Oh shit? Okay
are they are they? Are they moving towards me? Or are they just
standing there ominously? Standing there ominously? Awesome. I'm gonna pull the emergency
medical brake for the train and then I'm gonna try to bust out of the
fire exit window act under pressure. Okay, okay, eleven, you pull
a lever m and nothing happens. Oh, for fuck's sake, here,
can technology hear a noise again? Come on, When you do, you
can see the smaller one right next to you. Oh god, wow?
Oh okay, all right, all right, all right, all right,
all right, maybe let's have a conversation or something. Hello, I'm Quinn,
and you fucking are I've got my arms up so they can see the
ship on them. Hello, Holaura. There's a strange digital sound to their
voice, so that's not at all what I was expecting. But okay,
just breathe, Quinn, are you okay? Great? What can I what
can I help you? The other one moves close to you. Okay,
that's far enough. That's far enough. That's far enough. Now hold out
my arm that's got the protective symbols on it. Don't come any closer.
Why do you fear us? I you were intimidating as hell. You got
some like I'm either going to kidnap you and throw you in the back of
a Van Vibe or Morphe's from the Matrix Vibe, and I feel like I'm
already down the rabbit hole. So you are right to fear us. Okay,
see great, we're all on the same page. Then step back.
Oh you made a promise? What you I have work to do? A
promise? The hell are you talking about? Yes? A promise? No?
No, no, no no. I've been so careful not to make
any deals with anybody because I don't know what anything costs. What are you
talking about? You have unfinished business? Oh my god, I put the
I put my arms down, and I put the knife down that I have
as well, like I just I just immediately surrender the your name is approaching.
You mean from before? Yes, what deal did I make? Because
I don't remember. As you ask that question, they each grab your arms.
Oh whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. We're still just talking,
and suddenly everything goes dark. We see a familiar scene, cars passing on
the street, moving along the New York Street in the winter, much like
this winter. We see Quinn, Quinn, where are you going on this
day? Muted? I was on the way to my dad's. Yes,
I missed, I missed Thanksgiving, so already, already, the the snow
has started. You're making your way. It's a corner. You stop,
wait for the signal at my fucking gloves. Come on, breen, come
on, light turns green. Okay, I immediately go. I don't even
look because it's New York. I'm going. You're hit. You fall to
the ground, broken and bleeding, falling for your father dad. Oh fuck,
oh fuck. I can't I can't move, I can't move my legs.
Man, somebody help. Please. You can see the door open,
but it's hazy. The car, it's all blurry. Hey man, you
gotta call nine one one, Please please tell me Dad. You can hear
some muffled voice. I don't think so that seems unlikely. Gave me new
it? Who the fuck are you? No one? You can cern yourself
with h You have, of course, more important things about like what yeah
you're callin? Don't one? Or what that would make many efforts go to
waste, afraid not Who are you help me? Won't you help me?
I am a business man, after all, I don't understand. You see
the blurry shape, white blurry shape, begin to walk away from your broken
form? Wait? Wait, stop, why don't you love me? Get
back into the car. So so, homie, no things go dark?
You hear more. I guess if you're last beating, that's of your heart?
You maybe here in the distance, Hey, I think somebody got hit
by a car. You see nobody here. Somebody call an on one.
Somebody got hit by a car over here. However, m hm, things
go quiet for you. You see blackness, empty, Yet the sounds footsteps
are still clear as day. Sounds like two sets of footsteps. No,
not your father. H I forgot my glove. My hands are so cold.
That's not something you have to worry about anymore. The higher pitched voice
sounds almost like it's coming from a speaker that's distorted. There is business.
We have a requirement of you. You must protect him. H m hm.
Who He will be given an offer, many choices, one he cannot
be taken. If it does, then much will be unmade. Are you
speaking in riddles? Much will be unmade? I don't understand. You must
help him make his choice. Oh, your friend the photographer, Remy Turner,
Remy, remy? What do you want with Remy? We only want
to keep things from turning worse? Who are you? I? We?
We we are? Yeah, nievesa, that's n I are you angels?
No? Oh, devils? Then no, where do the sleeping gods?
I don't understand. Where am I? Where do I belong? Then that
is for you to decide. Do you wish to come back? Come back?
What do you mean come back? You must leave this place or you
may return. But if if you're not angels or devils? And where would
I go? We do not know? Does heaven even exists? Elysium us
elias? Elysium? Is this world? I I I just have to protect
someone. Then what then your journey will be over? And then I go
into the unknown. Anyway, you can't live for some more of your years?
Yeah? But am I just delaying the inevitable? Am I just gonna
walk around? Oh? Yeah? But now that I know you expect me
to just go back, just and knowing I have at that time, I
have a clock that's constantly dicking. I mean, we have that anyway.
But we can forget it, but I won't be able to. We can
make it so that you forget and I just what wake up in the hospital
and I think, oh, who's sitting near miss? There are others that
care about you? Oh yeah, but people die, it happens. You
don't have to go now an extension? What'll happen to Remy if I don't?
We don't know who's after him? Many some like us. How do
I how do I fight gods with all that you have? Oh? You
know me? You are right? You know me? Okay, are you
there? I said? Okay, Well she's over here. Tectib tectib.
Oh man, oh somebody, we need we need a bus. We need
a bus over here. Get a bus. Oh ship, oh ship,
the sound of the subway. It's all about you. Remy. Oh my
god, Remy, are they still here? You're gone? Fuck? I
pick up my phone. I'm trembling, and I try to dial Remy.
Start to call Remy, get the voicemail. Unfortunately, you've reached the voicemail
of Alreadie McFly. Follow me on Twitter, follow me on Instagram, and
if you need your picture taking, you know who to call. I'm not
here at my phone right now, but leave a message and I'll get right
back to you. Remy, it's me. It's cute. I I'm here
for you. You're in danger, and I need you to call me as
soon as you get this. Man, Okay, can you can you can
you? Can you meet me somewhere? Can you meet me at the myriad
or or just call me back as soon as you get this okay? Fuck?
I would like to use one of my other moves. Now, what
is my best way forward? I think hold on, I think you still
had another question. Yeah, so, uh, what is being hidden from
me with what you know? It's really hard to figure out exactly. I
don't want to give too much away here. It's literally the second to last
episode. I know, I think that you know that Green is probably like
them. Okay, but they said people like them would be hunting him,
so she can't help me unless that's the answer. I just don't want to
misinterpret this because I'm asking what kind I use to my advantage, and I
I don't know if she wants to help me. I don't think you know
that. Okay. I think that the info that you have advantage, it's
another It's another piece of the puzzle here. Okay, Quinn Green is definitely
like them, Okay. They have also said they want to make sure that
Remy doesn't make things worse. Yeah, okay, well that's yes, Okay,
I'm gonna try to track Remy. Then. Can I use my like
try to investigate or detective tale to try to find out where he is?
I guess I can get off at the I'll get off at the stop it's
alleyway with Green, and I guess that's my best bet, and I'll just
ask her. I guess. Okay, you have to take a few connections,
a few transfers. Let's say it takes you an hour. Okay,
it's getting to be probably near eleven PM or so. Okay, I know.
And you arrive at the at the pub where you talked to Say earlier,
and you saw Green in the alley? Is she still there? Like
a role for me? She? Is it like peer? I almost said,
pierce the illusion again. I do that all the time. No,
it's gonna be something else. Let me see what's the best here. Investigate
any pluses? Oh okay, yeah, seven not here? Okay. You
can see some of the other homeless people that are here. Hey hey,
hey, hey, buddy, buddy, Buddy, buddy. He sleep here.
I just trying to get some sleep. Yeah, okay. But I
was here earlier and there was a woman here. There's a woman here.
She well, she's here all the time. I need to find her.
Do you what what do you mean? What? What do you want money?
Do you want money? I've got money coming out my ass that I'll
never use here. Do you want a hundred dollars. Oh you don't take
you a hundred bucks. You're cool, great, awesome, you're knife bursen.
What could you please tell me where the woman was that was here?
Go uh influence other please and we'll say you got a plus two for the
HUNDI okay eleven? The woman, Yeah, she was just here. I
mean real pretty and you mean her super pretty. She brings your food sometimes,
does drugs, Yes, she gives them too, sometimes too. Where
is she? Is she here? She ain't here? She left a while
ago, a little bit after you left. Where did she go? When
you you know, when you grabbed that book or whatever and you tried,
you're you're going to drop it in the fire, and then you grabbed it
and you gave it to that other fellar. Go on, what other fellow
you drow? He's old where he wears, he's got it all the white.
If you shoot, you got the all in white. You had to
jumping. He looked like him. I don't know. He was waving around.
It looked like a watch. Oh okay, thank you. Oh right,
you said you wanted to know where she would Yeah, I changed my
mind. Don't spend it all in one place. And get yourself a fucking
meal and a coat. Man, don't don't, don't shoot it up please?
Yeah, of course I'm dialing the fucking assholes number on my card.
Time is my business? Oh? Yes? Hello? What can I do
for you? You have the book? Yes? I do? Do you
know where Remy is? Mister Turner is curtly subject of inquiry? Why should
I help? Point of order? He was the person that was with the
angels, right my angels? Or were they separate? Read a person read
a person? It would be a retroactive reader person. But yeah, ok,
because he was there saying what a waste of opportunities? So I assume
that there can acted with him? Okay, read a person and hold on.
I'm so sorry. Thirteen. You can ask one question from the read
a person list about Offman. Uh? Okay, oh I actually get a
free question. I can always tell if he's lying to me or not,
so I don't know how to ask if he is like on my side here,
I will allow that as a question. Would you like that as one
of your questions? Yes, absolue fucking lutely. Is he the one that
like kept me alive to help Remy? Or what is he like who.
Those are different questions which would you like me to answer? Is he on
my side? No? Okay, okay, So you came and you took
the book and you don't know where Remy is, or you're not gonna tell
me where he is. Mister Turner is currently a target for many interested individuals.
I I'm also inquiring as to where he is. However, if you
would like to strike a bargain, perhaps I might be able to find out
what's your price? Also, is he lying to me about not knowing where
he is just to get a bargain? Either way, if you want a
visual for Hoffman, there you go terrifying. Is he lying about knowing where
Remy is? Yeah, just to strike a deal with me, a free
deal or whatever? Yes? Yeah, okay, fucking thoughts? So does
he answer me when he says what's the price? I believe the only acceptable
price these days for you will be too find out where the rest of your
friends are. If you give me this information, then I will help you.
Okay, Well, here's the thing. I know you don't have to
do any work to find out where Remy is, So why don't you knock
that down on that price? You don't have to find him. You don't
have to make any inquiries. So that's another fair price. Sorry, what
influence other? Okay, Oh my god, I'm gonna vomit. Three?
Of course, how fitting I have a better deal for you? I have
a certain guess with me that I think perhaps you would sure I didn't have
I hang up the phone. He's got my fucking dad or sigh or someone,
and I'm just refuse to engage in this. Fucking No, I just
immediately hang up. I'm not gonna fucking play ball with his asshole green fuck.
Oh my god? Can I try to use my Can I try to
use my arm with the shitty symbol on it to open a door to that
hallway? How do you do this? I think what I would do is
I would I think I'm gonna try to do my pierce the veil or see
what's hidden from me cracks in this alleyway. This alleyway is something. She
appears here and disappears here. There's got to be something here. He appeared
here to take the book from me, So there's got to be some way,
something here that I can use. I think you need something more traumatic
to happen when you suffer shock injuries or distort your perception through drugs or rituals,
and try to see through the illusion. You have an extra move though,
don't you that I think about it. You have another move. Oh
you've got enhanced awareness, Yes, I do. You can make an enhanced
awareness role. Okay, Oh good, because I was totally about to shoot
up Heroin. So thank you, thank you for making that easier for me.
Oh my god. Okay that is which role is that? Observe?
So okay, fourteen? Explain again how you activate your enhanced awareness. Ah,
So, I think now it's more like that feeling, especially now that
I remember what happened to me. I think it's very much like I take
a couple of deep breaths, like I'm trying to steal my mind, and
then I'm just going to kind of like shift my perception, you know,
something like, and then I can see the alley looks much the same.
However, you can see that each of the homeless people that are here sort
of stained, they look a little bit different than what they look like when
you're not using this enhanced awareness. The you can see like their clothing might
be mostly cleaned up, but you can see a few of them have a
maybe some of them have rubber tubes tied to their arms. Some of them
are apparently drenched. Some of them are wild eyed, manic, some of
them are Are they looking at things that are now visible in this world?
I think that they are sort of mesmerized by the flames that are still dancing
in one of the trash cans. Okay, there is no There are no
creatures here that you can see, Okay, except there are maybe things you
didn't notice at first glance. Okay, there are small shadow like creatures that
appear to be clinging to them on the ground by their ankles, maybe small
sharp like little claws, and you can see them just kind of grabbing their
ankles, a little sort of amorphous looking shadows. Ah. Do I see
any like weird ghost residue from Green? Can I track her using this enhanced
awareness? Oh? I'd love an investigate So you get a plus one fifteen.
What would you imagine some sort of residue for Green would look like?
She has like peacock ear rings? Right? Yeah, I think I just
see peacock feathers. They're illusionary. She has a you can see on the
screen right now, but they're kind of they're just kind of dangly. Oh
yeah, okay, then yeah I think I yeah, I think I find
little bits of that from her earrings, Like I can see those and follow
them. Yeah, I think he can follow this. I fucking follow it.
Man mesmerized myself. Hey, i'st you go. That's a good place
for us to end the episode today. Woom like dang everybody, Yeah that
was grand and the stage is set. Yes, yes, yes it is.
Oh Man, well done. That was a hell of an episode.

much for watching. Let's let's go around the room, Let's do some shout
outs, and and I I think I have questions. I have a simple
question for everybody going around their tempo. Would you be so kind of start
us off? Please? Oh boy, so much pressure? No, but
wow, what an episode. Jeez. If you guys want to follow me,
I go by the name of tempo. That's with the zero. Getting
back on my music grind, getting back on my video grind. Been doing
a lot of skateboard videos lately. And I landed on my love butt cheek
yesterday and luckily it didn't hurt today, so I was able to kind of
like sit at the edge of my seat without it hurting too bad, which
was awesome because this was like one of those nobiting edge of the seat kind
of episodes. So I appreciate my regenerative properties of my body. But hot
damn twits dot tv solast Tempo with the zero, YouTube dot com solast Tempo
with the zero, and then also Twitter and Instagram at team Tempo with the
zero. Hot damn, thank you, buddy. Good question for you.
You have only one choice. Who is the most important person in your life?
Oh? So, my god, that's so hard. Ah, it's
like a huge toss up between Q and Lenny. But I think as far
as Oh my god, it's so hard. I think in his mind like
that little brother Lenny so many questions. He's been unresponsive and it's really starting
to get to him. But he hasn't seen Quan so long, and she
was supposed to help. Oh, like this current moment, I haven't seen
Lenny in so long, damn. I think I would say, Lenny,
