This town has been haunted for decades now. Trapped in a dead man's dream, unable to move on. ...Let's give 'em a little help.
[ she waits until the restaurant is quiet, then. ] you know i've already read all the files, right?
[ looks left and right. ] hey what the fuck just happened,
[ deep breaths. the restaurant is full. the knowledge is all there. everyone, everything, all in one place. a grin crosses her face unbidden. it's nice to finally get a win. it's time. ]
@rotten-ribbon.bsky.social [ time's up. she's here. ] ...hi, caroline. i think we both know what i'm here for.
[ deep breaths. right then. three steps and this all ends. the mask. the rabbit. bring them together. the bunker doesn't matter. it just gives her one last night to bring it all together. ]
i was supposed to be dead already. i mean, five animatronics at once? you don't even give fritz that many, and he's... fuck, he's fritz. [ she stares him down, clearly frustrated, but. he's right. she doesn't know what's in there. for all she knows, it could be nothing. ]
The Boss.@havearottennight.bsky.social · 3mo agoNOT for actual profit? ...Do you READ those newspaper clippings they left up at the salvage locations or do you just grab Shadow Freddy and leave? [ He snickers, more to himself than anything. ] This place is a gold mine! How it collapses when it does... does NOT bother me. And if you're about >
...names. i don't have names. they redact those. [ she leans in a bit. ] i'm trying not to immediately jump to hardball right now, boss. you have a good head for business, i respect that. you can clearly see that upper brass wants me VERY dead, if you're as smart as i'm hoping.
The Boss.@havearottennight.bsky.social · 3mo agoIf there's an incident, I dump it on someone else and leave. There's a million other places that can get on life support with a little chutzpah. You ain't had much time to haggle, have you? [ The fact she knows borders on irrelevant. She's studied the case, hasn't she? Makes two of them now. ]
[ she tilts her head a bit. ] who said i was after the bunker? [ how the fuck does she know about that. ] if it were just that, i would have gone down myself as a pet project. it's the other things in there that concern me. i'm trying to help.
The Boss.@havearottennight.bsky.social · 3mo agoRead 'em? 'Course I read 'em. Mike dropped 'em off before he went home for the week. [ "Not here for the money." Pshht. Everyone's swayed by profits eventually. He leans back, scowl dropping in turn. ] ... You're not much an engineer y'self, though, are ya? You get a hold of these 'n you blow >
me? i thought i told you i wasn't here for the money, boss. it's a professional opportunity, nothing more. that said... those files are important for a project i'm working on. something that's going to raise profits a significant amount.
The Boss.@havearottennight.bsky.social · 3mo agoThis whole place is on borrowed time. You'd be stupid not to run its pockets before you throw the place on its ass. What's it matter if someone's making real coin? [ He leans in, the "good-natured" smile giving way to a more in-character scowl. ] If you're here about a RAISE, spit it out already.
[ she rolls her eye. ] is that so? then you're going to ignore someone that both uses manager powers over your place of business, and gets manager pay? [ a tilt of her head now. ] that's a lot of money you're losing on burrowing your head in the sand.
The Boss.@havearottennight.bsky.social · 3mo ago[ There's a stillness in the air as the Boss stares at- or perhaps through- her. She doesn't need to be intimidated. The employees listen one way or the other. That's all he cares about. ... It's why he bursts out laughing in her face when she prompts the question. ] BWAHAHAHA!! Don't be stupid!
[ she's been here before. she remembers the mess of a desk, she remembers the boss's frame. most would be intimidated. most would cower at the massive man ahead of them. saito is not most. ] the plushie gave you the files, didn't it.
The Boss.@havearottennight.bsky.social · 3mo ago[ He doesn't look up as she makes her entrance. A massive hand lifts his hat just the slightest bit to scan the silhouette in the doorway, and is lowered straight after. ] Saito. [ A nod. The boss's desk is drowning in nonsense. It's more like a child's nightstand, in that way. ] Whadd'ya want?
@havearottennight.bsky.social [ the door creaks open. silhouetted against the dark office is the figure of the most... well. problematic employee. you can almost taste the frustration in her frame. ] evenin', boss man. i'd ask if your schedule is free, but you don't seem to be doing much.
[ okay, great. straight up fucking football punting that bitch. it probably flies past the parking lot, actually. now to see where it fucking hid the files. ]
what the fuck did i miss while i was dealing with fucking. thirty goddamn robots.
// cass meanwhile does not actually know who is a ghost intuitively. she knows the history but doesn't actually. have any way to tell why they're aggressive so she is trying to use context clues said clues are not always Right tho
[ there's a ghost in the motherfucker anyway. she recognizes it isn't The One but all must go! ]
sunday as in /seductive sunday/, silly. it's a good thing i don't work tonight, i'm sure as hell not doing this at frickbear's.
...should i do one here too? [ thinking emoji. ]
