[UNSTABLE] WE'RE NOTHING LIKE HIM. WE'RE NOT SOME HORRIBLE FUCKING MONSTER. HE'S THE ONE WITH HIS FACE HALF MELTED! WE'RE FINE!
[ANOMALOUS ABILITIES] Who's to say he was wrong? We simply have more control over our powers compared to what he has.
[PERSON OF INTEREST] ...What would they profit from doing this to him? He would've went on a rampage. Is A-Energy really that valuable?
You quickly leave the kitchen. The less you have to think about what he said, the better. Alexis is already leaving through the front door. You don't blame her for wanting to be out of sight, out of mind after what happened.
>Alexis has left your party.
Adam points a finger at the kitchen. "I should bring Benedict back home. Again, thank you for doing what you did." You nod back at him. He disappears to retrieve his half-corrupted friend.
>Adam has left your party.
Benjamin has stuck around, however! He's carrying a A-Energy box that's the size of his head in his arms. "Hey, where did that weird Handler guy go? The others said they had 'business' to attend to."
"He, uh, left after I showed him something. It's all good." You now realized he didn't give you the money. You're about to flip the fuck out before you notice something on the table. You take a step to check it and lo and behold, it's $251. Huh. There's a small note attached to them.
"Took my cut. Going to talk to Adam later. Call me if you need anything. Alexis, out."
Mmh. Well, you got your paycheck now.
>You now have 321 dollars! You also now have an A-Energy box! Most shops will be willing to trade an item for one of them and may offer special items only purchasable by it.
"So, what now? The job's done." Benjamin looks around the completely abandoned fast food joint. "Should we just go now? I should probably call 'Max' soon." He mumbles under his breath. "She can be real needy when it comes to getting attention."
"I guess we should." Without further ado, you exit out the door. Benjamin quickly follows after you. For a split second you thought you saw a trace of silver in the crowds but it's too late, whatever was there is gone. You now have free time to do whatever you want.
"So, what's our next stop?" Benjamin lets out a huff. Seems like carrying the box is a struggle for him. "I got some time until I gotta go. Be my excellent captain in this sea of degeneracy, o' Nicole the Great!"
"Shut up." You try to stifle your giggle. What is your plan?
