WEEK SIX

16 Vacationers

Throughout your time on the island, there's been a steady rhythm; the murders, the trials, the executions, the clean-up afterwards that leave just up remnants for you to remember what was lost. This Monday morning though, things are different. The debris and any biohazards are cleared, but no effort has been made to repair the games at the arcade, or to restock the chemicals and damaged equipment at the laboratory.

Odd.

If you cast your eyes to the sky, you'll also notice that the distortion is also lingering—there's certainly less of it at least, a haze still lingering over the go-karts, one whirlpool lingering out in the sea. It could be worse, surely.

Though there's no new locations for you to take your mind off of all these oddities either. In fact, looking at your device to access the resort map area and scrolling past Kakapo's Nest triggers an error.

There’s one more, slightly more eclectic change: the kittybots, instead of having cute kitty ears and faces, are now without exception round-headed. This would make them look like ordinary robots, but their heads actually now look like a bowl of fish swimming, which occasionally form up into expressions. A change of pace for everything, it seems.

[The glare on his face gets more severe, not breaking eye contact. Wang Lu's sanctimonious holier-than-thou assertion that he won't seek revenge is utter bullshit, and Billy knows it right away from that last statement.]

You're ain't much different from me yourself--I wouldn't have a head right now if either of those two ended up like Xiao, I figure. [His gaze turns to the other, surviving Xiao being contained.] Good chunk of you ain't no different. You'd take it if someone gave you an opportunity you'd been waiting for back when this whole thing started.

[ Smashing balls can be healed to be smashed again another time. Playing god and experimenting with others all for revenge? Not something he would ever do and not something remotely comparable ]

I can sit here and tell you that I wouldn't have picked the same path, no matter what they held over me or lies they spun for me. I'd rather inject myself. But I know it's pointless to argue with those who can't see anything beyond their own narrow point of view. We both led different lives, in different worlds, and in different paths. You won't believe what I have to say no matter what.

[ He's had to argue countless times in the past with those who decided one thing or another about Wang Lu's character. ]

[butcherspice]

I got more in common with them than most folks here. And not just by bein' a lying shithead if you think you're clever.

But you got the right of it. Ain't gonna believe anyone who thinks they got a good read on me.

[As if Wang Lu or anybody here knows the first thing about what's worth it for revenge. And if they've seen the same things and still won't take the opportunity for it, they're pathetic in his eyes.]

[chosenwang]

[ Oh, he knows. He usually encourages revenge and doing what you must to stop assholes

But he draws the line when innocent members are the victims. Especially when someone went about it like a coward skulking about. Have fun with your life Billy, he hopes it's worth the pain and blood you will leave in your wake ]

[butcherspice]

[He imagines it is. Innocent people get hurt all the time where he's from, so what's a few that he'll never see again if at the end of it, Homelander ends up dead? That will save far more people from getting hurt than being overly concerned with keeping his own standards of morality ever will.

Whatever it takes, right, Billy?]
