So what, you growl as Sunny looks away with a wistful sigh, they just <span class="mu-i">decided</span> to pin it on you?
“You pinned it on <span class="mu-i">yourself,</span> really.” Replies your boss with a bored shrug. “I’d heard you suffered from those <span class="mu-b">FUGUE STATES</span> when I skimmed your files once upon a time, but when you just happened to be suffering from one that night? Why, it’d be downright <span class="mu-i">irresponsible</span> of me not to use it to our advantage, wouldn’t it?”
A sly grin forms on the boss’ pale face. “And imagine how <span class="mu-i">giddy</span> I was when we learned what caused those episodes? And when we realized we could <span class="mu-i">TRIGGER</span> them? MMM!” Sunny gushes, kisses their fingers like a chef! “Why, I’d be a <span class="mu-i">fool</span> to let you go after that! What a <span class="mu-i">TREAT</span> you were, Stan!”
Wait, you mutter as the realization slowly settles in, so this whole time… they <span class="mu-i">knew</span>?
“Why Stanley, you <span class="mu-i">INSULT</span> me!” Sunny scoffs, “I make it a point to read over <span class="mu-i">all</span> of my employee’s files–what is this company without their sweat, blood and tears?”
They narrow their eye at you like a wolf stalking a rabbit. “And what kind of boss would I be if I didn’t capitalize on that tasty little tidbit?” Sunny taps their chin in thought. “Why, now that you mention it, Stanley, I’m sure I saw <span class="mu-i">something</span> inside that drawer… don’t go anywhere, okay?”
Returning to the security booth, Sonny swiftly retrieves a video cassette from one of the draws and blows the dust off its surface before shoving it into an ancient VCR!
“Be kind, rewind…” They say with a snort as they fast-forward through what appears to be a day of work at the factory. Stopping near the end, Sunny scampers over to you with remarkable speed and wheels your gurney closer to the screen! Tapping the play button, the two of you watch as the feed shifts to an abandoned factory floor–<span class="mu-g">BONE PROCESSING,</span> to be precise. Before you can ask, your answer comes in the form of a familiar Evening Sanitation Coordinator staggering past the camera like a zombie!
“No need to be self-conscious, Stan–the camera adds ten pounds to everyone!”
