Hiya! How are you?

-SnipyCrab

“You can talk?! Woah…”

“…Yeah, you didn’t hear it before?…” “…shut up, Double…”

Hello?

-SnipyCrab

“Oh you’re just adorable!!!”

Noob kneels down on one knee to get on your level. You’re quite tiny compared to him.

“Hello, little guy!!! How did you end up here?… …there weren’t any new updates I don’t think…”

“Noob, I’d be careful with that thing…” “Double, the worst thing it could do is pinch me. Plus, it’s cute!!!”

1337 has been shuffling through the channels for a while now, trying to pick up some signal, any signal at all. It's gotta be here somewhere...

"How did that kid even do this..." he muttered.

"Dude, we've been doin' this for 'bout 30-ish minutes, are ya absolutely sure it actually picked somthin' up from another game?..." The gambler leaned up against his chair, clearly tired of this monotonous task.

"Yes, Chance. I swear that happened- Two Time and Noob even told you about it!" "They're children, they probably jus' made that up n' fed into a delusion ya had." "Why would they lie to us about something that could be crucial to our escape? They're trapped in here with us-" "I dunno man, just- put it off to the side. 'M gettin' sick of this."

...

"...Fine."

He turns the dial one last time before backing his hands away from the radio. The static quiets.

Wait...

...

After one more turn, a voice, or perhaps multiple, is heard from the speakers. A signal!

"aHA! See, I told you!!!" 1337 slams his fist against the table in victory.

"Well ruffle my feathers 'n call me Lady Luck, that #### actually worked... I suppose you were right!" Chance replies. They sit up right and grab the walkie talkie and hold it like a microphone.

"Helloooo, can anybody hear me?" Chance announces playfully.

(I COULDNT FIND A PERSONA REF SO I HAD TO MAKE ONE UP FOR U!!! Srry if it's inaccurate)

"...Don't."

they... don't seem amused.

Happy pride month everyone :)

“H-hello? Is this on?”

The small radio in the main cabin broadcasts this sudden message. It usually just repeats the same ambient song, so this immediately catches the attention of a few of the survivors.

The odd signal appears to be coming from a... different game? Perhaps the outside world? It...

It doesn't matter, they could help. Something about their voice though, it sounds... cartoonish. Is this another trick from That thing?... A small walkie talkie is right next to the radio.

Doesn't hurt to respond.

"Hello? Y-Yes, we can hear you. Who is this?"
