here we go again

[ The others were at a loss. For him, the message was crystal clear: the last one standing wins.

Well, so be it. From the beginning, he'd been more than prepared to do just that. And with his alternative escapes sealed off, it's time for him to finally make his move.

He leaves late on Sunday to find the Sheriff. As loath as he is to talk to the man any more, he won't be able to kill them all with his bare hands. Not in this body. ]

No, I am not. I was just tellin' ya the precedent.

[ He considers then then looks at Ash with a raised eyebrow. ]

What makes you think you deserve to be last person standing? You haven't done anything this entire game.

[uraniumnumnum]

[ an eyeroll. he has to prove himself now?! ]

What makes you think I don't? I'm despised by the entire town, including you, yet I'm still alive. And I'm here now, asking to make my first move. If my first move is the one that ends everything... I'd say I've simply been more clever than the rest of them.

[sheriffexe]

No, it just proves you're even more useless than you already were. You don't participate and you're a waste of my time. Do you think I picked you, specifically? Do you think you're special enough for me to want to bring you here? To need it? No. You were a roll of a dice and I didn't think much of you to say otherwise. And since you have waited this long to do anything, in the end it just proves how much of a waste of metal and autonomy you've always been.

[ And yet -- ]

I'll give you your explosives.

[ He smiles. ]

[uraniumnumnum]

That's rich, coming from a slave. I don't really care what a mindless drone like you thinks. I just need you to fetch some things for me like the obedient tool you are.

[ it does seem to roll right off of him. maybe because he's firmly placed the sheriff in the "lower being" category. ]

Where shall I pick them up?

[sheriffexe]

See, what did I say? Waste of space.

[ But he shrugs then. ]

Thursday morning, box of dynamite will be found in your room. Your explosion should be timed for around 3 AM.

[uraniumnumnum]

That's what I thought. [ smug asshole. Still, he seems satisfied with that. Dynamite is archaic, but it will do the trick. ] If you're lucky, we'll never meet again... Until then, I'll be looking forward to the end.
