You ask for as many passes as necessary to get everyone in the Family here! You, Vera, Mama Bodil, Eddie, Dylan, and Kangaroo Man! You’re going to celebrate together while eating the catering! Ms. Bombshell Nguyen complies and hands you everything you need, she’s happy costing the station as much money as possible. The tour guide will show up at the reception eventually, but for now, you’re going to the car for the others!
Once back, Vera was very much awake even if not for long and she’s already upset. Upset that you weren’t here as her beautiful eyes opened (her words)! Mama Bodil finds this all very endearing because of course she does.
“I can sense it…” Vera pouts.
“What is it?” You don’t know where this is going.
“I can sense it all! I knew you were doing a bunch of dumb things while I was resting beautifully!” Vera is really angry for no reason.
“That’s not possible.” You frown. She can’t rest beautifully, that makes no sense.
“Oh, yeah? Then let me trace your steps!” Vera pulls out her phone.
“T-That isn’t necessary. Ehem, I have a surprise for all of you!” You pull out the access passes! “I got us all a tour inside the TV station...!” You feel a lot of excitement from the members of the family! Except Vera. “...With access to the catering too!” That won over Vera.
“It’s not much of a prize, but let’s enjoy it.” Kangaroo Man smiles.
“Is it a good idea for us to parade inside the building?” Mama Bodil wonders if it’s a good idea. After all, the sole reason she didn’t accompany you inside was that the members of the family shouldn’t be spotted for safety reasons.
“Mama Bodil, please, it’s *free* catering.” Eddie pulls his best puppy dog eyes for this. It’s awful.
“Alright! Alright! Only ‘cause you called me Mama and it didn’t sound forced as hell.” Mama Bodil has a good chuckle.
Eddie pumps his fists to celebrate! Mama Bodil notices there’s an extra pass, and asks about it.
“It’s for Dylan.” You remember the legendary member of the family that you totally met and have a connection to.
“Oh. How considerate of you, kid.” Mama Bodil values what you’ve done. “Dylan would’ve appreciated it.”
“If only he was with us now…” Eddie grabs the missing member’s pass longingly.
“We’ll have to enjoy this as much as we can for him. For Dylan.” Mama Bodil pats everyone’s back solemnly.
“…” Kangaroo Man lowers his head to act respectfully.
“Stop acting like he’s dead!!! You bunch of morons!” Vera shouts with the fury of a mighty rat. “And, Johnny…” Vera gets your attention.
“Hmm?” You don’t want to be yelled at again.
“I’m glad you’re fine.” Vera sighs in relief and then smiles. You smile back. You two look like idiots. Happy idiots.
