Vicky is laughing harder than you’ve ever seen her as the scene continues to unfold, wheezing and doubled over. The volunteer is now a bloody mess on one of the tables in the boardroom - the drone gave the poor gonk the full cyberpsycho treatment, must’ve hit him with a hundred rounds or more.
“This… hahaha, this is <span class="mu-i">fucked</span>, how’d they know?” Vicky wheezes, “When did this come out… 1987? That’s older than my great grandmother!”
“Shhh!” Alice shushes Vicky, though of course only you can hear it; she’s a bit of a hypocrite about talking during movies, although does it count as talking if only you can hear it? You don’t mind much, and she knows that.
>”Nothing new under the sun, Vicky.” It doesn’t surprise you that much.>”Kind of prophetic, isn’t it? Can’t believe someone saw this gonk shit coming a hundred years ago... Though I guess Arasaka was already around even then.” You ARE surprised.>”...Think anyone in Maxtac had this happen to them? Get blasted and wake up more chrome than person, I mean?” Something about the story is actually resonating with you quite a bit, though moreso Alice - she’s no stranger to losing memories after ‘dying’.>Write-in.
