Heres an approximate writeup of a conversation that happened a few days ago at Gringos, so everyone can now understand everything. Cristin and Alex dancing in seats to music playing overhead* Cristin: You know, between me and you, Alex, we could probably make everyone in this cohort cry. Rebecca: Is this your plan? You guys are planning to take down everyone and make them suffer. Cristin & Alex: c: *pause* Rebecca: This is going to be a thing, isn’t it? Our team will be dancing all the time. Alex: Especially when we present our game. Rebecca: Yes. Especially when we present. Ryan: So whats your game design, now? Rebecca: Well, let me tell you. Were going to turn all the lights off in the room, and after a suspenseful pause, a spotlight will come on, revealing Alex. Shining right on top of him. It will be beautiful. And then, Alex will begin to sing with his angelic voice. After a while, Cristin will come in with an interpretive dance routine and – wait. Cristin, can you sing? Cristin: Funny. Rebecca: Okay so it’ll just be Alex singing. And he’ll be wearing his tux – Ryan: Wait. Alex has a tux? Alex: It’s not a tux. It’s a three-piece suit. Mike: I was about to say – Rebecca: Whatever. He looks damn hot in it. Anyway, Alex will be singing with his suit and will start to join in on Cristin’s dance. Everyone will begin to ascend because of his angelic voice. Before they go completely though, we’ll turn all the lights back on and I’ll say “We hope you enjoyed our game. Thank you.” Cristin: And Ron won’t question it because it will be that beautiful. Ryan: Of course. Haha. What color would the suit be? Rebecca: It needs to be a white suit because it would match the angelic voice. Alex, do you have a white suit? Alex: Nope. Just a black one. I wanted to get a white suit at one point, but one of my sisters vetoed it, and her argument was “You’re not black, so you’ll just look like a pimp or something.” Rebecca: Okay, so he’ll just be a vampire angel. Alex: And the ascension will actually happen. Rebecca: Yes. And everyone will go to heaven because his voice will save our souls. Meanwhile Alex will go to hell because he sacrificed himself to save everyone. Ryan: So he’s a good vampire. Rebecca: Actually, no. If he doesn’t like you, he’ll just send you to hell anyway. And actually we’re all in his mind and he can just erase us from his memory if he doesn’t like us. Ryan: This…this got dark pretty fast. Cristin & Mike (in unison, obviously): Yeah it did. :u Alex: *pumps eyebrows* c: Rebecca: And this happens with every cohort. Alex has actually been here since the beginning. He died in the next door building and became Satan in the most angelic way. This is why he stays forever young. He’s actually the oldest one here. Cristin: So he’s angelic vampire Satan. Mike: Oh God. Haha. Rebecca: And really, you think you’re going to heaven, but as you float through the ceiling of the room you just come right up through the floor again. Only this time you’re at capstone, and if you don’t succeed, you go down to hell which is actually where you have to complete two RPP rounds and write two GDDs each week. If you do well, you get the opportunity to go to heaven again, and the cycle just continues. Ryan: And Ron is there for each one? Cristin: Ron is also immortal and part of Alex’s mind. So really Alex controls everything. Rebecca: And this is how Alex helps us. He does it for us. But he has to do it in his suit. Cristin will also be wearing a three-piece suit, but it will be red. Alex: And by three-piece, she means three small patches of fabric. c: Cristin: ;) Ryan: What kind of dance will you be doing? Cristin: Anything your heart desires, naturally. Alex: I just pictured Cristin twerking everywhere, and me joining in on that. Haha. Cristin: Hah. Perfect. Ryan: So this is what your game is about? Rebecca: Our game is about bubbles. Ryan: *mishearing* Pimples? Rebecca: *mishearing* Yeah. You pop them. That’s the core mechanic. Ryan: Well okay. Lol. That’s…different. Alex: Bubbles. It’s about bubbles, Ryan. Lol. Ryan: Oh. I was picturing something where you had to pop all of the pimples on someone’s face. Mike: Black heads are worth double points of course. Ryan: Oh, of course. Alex: But, yeah, basically with the current design you’re an origami man and have to pop bubbles. The final boss is a bar of soap. We haven’t decided on all of the aspects yet. It’s just the theme. Ryan: Ahh. Rebecca: It’s still going to be beautiful, though. You won’t even be able to begin to understand how amazing. Cristin: We might even do a dance routine anyway. Rebecca: Definitely. It needs to happen. *pause* Alex, I’m sorry I put you on my team with my telepathic powers. Alex: I think I can get over that. No worries. *pause* Cristin: I like how we managed to have a full conversation without talking about RPP, while at the same time it being entirely about RPP. Rebecca: We’re just that good.
