Double silver disaster
mmmmmuultishot?????????
The cargo hold and engine rooms of the cruise ship, as well as crew quarters and other areas not intended to be seen by the guests, comprise the bowels. These are the lowest points of the ship, and unlike the well-decorated upper levels, the aesthetic is sparse and functional. The bare metal walls are stained with rust, and low-hanging pipes are common. Given the ship's size, this area falls well below the waterline, leaving ambient noise strange and unsettling, and creating a stifling atmosphere. The cargo hold is full of wooden crates, creating an artificial maze, though most of the crates are empty and those that are not are mostly filled with screws and bolts rendered inoperable by manufacturing defects; these were brought in by the producers to populate the area.
Double silver disaster
((Continued from Farewell to Faraway Friends))
According to a 2017 article from artnet.com, Damien Hirst's oeuvre has required the deaths of 13 sheep, 40 cows, 3 horses, 1 zebra, 4 pigs, 1 bear, 1 woolly mammoth, 17 sharks, 709 other fish, 850,000 houseflies, 17,000 butterflies, 45,000 other insects, 5 birds, and 1 human.
Luanne Grasset had never joined Mangrove Garden's art club, because up until very recently, she didn't make art for anyone other than herself. However, she had a vague idea of who the club's members were, and so that was how she knew the girl she was staring down at from the entrance of the stairwell had once been an artist. Presently though, when she looked at the girl, impaled and fastened to the floor like a butterfly to corkboard, her brain mostly just processed it the same as it did when Hirst shot a dead calf several times with a crossbow and then titled it Saint Sebastian.
She walked down the first couple of metal steps, stopped to steel herself for a moment, and then forced herself onwards, and past the girl and the blood-tinged pink bandana wrapped around her arm, and then further, into the darkness, and into a place she now understood would be hell.

Soon, there was another girl. Luanne could tell she was dead, because of the dark red gash running around the circumference of her neck where her collar would have once been. She did not know the girl's name; however she recognized her, because the girl had always worn a crucifix necklace to school, and Luanne was good at noticing things like that.
She glanced down at a flash of colorful rubber around the girl's arm. Luanne knelt down. The girl was wearing a few wristbands, inscribed with things like "WWJD" and "ASAP" and "FROG", and while Luanne did not understand what frogs had to do with Jesus, she recognized "what would Jesus do" and "as soon as possible".
The wristbands were rubber, which meant they weren't conductive, and that seemed like a property that had the potential to be useful. So Luanne quietly slipped the girl's wristbands off and squirreled them away in her backpack. Then she rose back up to her full height and continued on, because there was nothing left they could do for each other now.

"Okay.
"Hi Jewel, hi Stephanie. Please watch this, because legally, they can't kill you. And so if none of this gets aired, and if I die, it would be nice to have someone who knows how this really went down.
"Okay. Producer guys:
"I bet it must have cost you a lot of money to buy all these boats. So you've probably got a lot depending on this season being a hit.
"So, like, if you really want a hit?"
She laughed nervously. And then took a big breath in.
"Then this is how people like me do hits.
"I hear it's very, um, in-vogue, to be medium-aware. People love art about art. People love TV about TV. Look at Jewel. People love talking about her. When they see her being clever and they understand what she's talking about, they feel clever too. And that's like crack to them. Look at how marketable I'm being right now. Look at how marketable metatextual irony is. You picked me out for this show because of my reaction to Jewel. I'm a reaction to Jewel. I'm cynical TV about cynical TV about cynical TV. That's who I'm supposed to be. You could air this whole speech unedited if you wanted to. People are either going to love me for this or they're going to complain about how insufferable and pretentious I'm being right now, but I mean, either way, they're watching, aren't they? And that's what matters. That's your bottom line. I'm making you money as long as you let me keep speaking.
"I think it's kind of interesting that... that, like, you can detonate the collars manually. Like how you accidentally exploded that one guy a few seasons back. 'Cause that means you can also deactivate a collar manually - which makes sense, I guess, because, um, winners, and stuff. But, like, okay, when people do stuff with collars, and they do something wrong, Noreen says they 'lose a life', because every time they fuck up, the collars get more, like, um, aggressive about exploding. And unless you have software tracking escape attempts and doing those collar detonations - which is something I doubt, because, like, you're still having technology fuckups ruining announcements, and if that's all you've been able to afford, I'm pretty sure whatever software you'd be running collar stuff with would have already killed us all - so that means you're also doing that all manually.
"Which means, like, it doesn't really matter how I do any of this, and you could just deactivate my collar. And honestly, like why not? Nobody who watches this show about expects any sort of integrity from the people making it; they won't stop watching even if you're this brazen about the show being bullshit. You're not pushing an ideology; it doesn't actually matter to you if the game follows your formula. I guess you could make an argument about it setting a precedent that anybody can just escape like this. But, like, they didn't just escape like this, did they?
"I'm escaping using a flaw in the fabric of the show, instead of a flaw in the collar. And just like you do with, like, collar escape methods, after one person gets away with this, you can just make it so nobody else can. Nobody's ever escaped through the fourth wall before. That's pure novelty. That's marketable. That's a hit. People are tired of the same thing happening every season, and that's why what I'm doing right now is marketable. Because it's about being tired of sixty-seven seasons of the same thing over and over and over again. Like, wow, I wonder if more than two people will survive this season? Everybody already knows how the show goes, and they're bored. And, like, honestly, you doing this for me is probably the only shot this season has left to not end like that.
"You stand to lose more if I die than if I live. I want to get out alive. I'm going to die if I try and escape the old-fashioned way. Let's talk."
"Hi Jewel, hi Stephanie. Please watch this, because legally, they can't kill you. And so if none of this gets aired, and if I die, it would be nice to have someone who knows how this really went down.

And unless you have software tracking escape attempts and doing those collar detonations - which is something I doubt, because, like, you're still having technology fuckups ruining announcements, and if that's all you've been able to afford, I'm pretty sure whatever software you'd be running collar stuff with would have already killed us all - so that means you're also doing that all manually.
"Which means, like, it doesn't really matter how I do any of this, and you could just deactivate my collar. And honestly, like why not? Nobody who watches this show about expects any sort of integrity from the people making it; they won't stop watching even if you're this brazen about the show being bullshit. You're not pushing an ideology; it doesn't actually matter to you if the game follows your formula. I guess you could make an argument about it setting a precedent that anybody can just escape like this. But, like, they didn't just escape like this, did they?
"I'm escaping using a flaw in the fabric of the show, instead of a flaw in the collar. And just like you do with, like, collar escape methods, after one person gets away with this, you can just make it so nobody else can. Nobody's ever escaped through the fourth wall before. That's pure novelty. That's marketable. That's a hit. People are tired of the same thing happening every season, and that's why what I'm doing right now is marketable. Because it's about being tired of sixty-seven seasons of the same thing over and over and over again. Like, wow, I wonder if more than two people will survive this season? Everybody already knows how the show goes, and they're bored. And, like, honestly, you doing this for me is probably the only shot this season has left to not end like that.
"You stand to lose more if I die than if I live. I want to get out alive. I'm going to die if I try and escape the old-fashioned way. Let's talk."

Slowly, she dragged the corpse over to the generator. She picked up a jumper cable, and connected a gator clip to an arbitrary point on the dead body's collar.
She fwapped her hand against the power button on the portable generator, and a big light on the front of the machine turned on. Then, she pulled the other end of the jumper cable over to where she was.
Briefly, she brought her hands up to her own neck, and tightened the bandana tied over her collar.
Then she knelt down in front of the generator.
She smiled bitterly. Her lower lip twitched.

She rolled her eyes again. Then, almost robotically, she grabbed the bandana with the same hand she'd dropped it from, and tied it back around her collar again.
Then she walked over to the lightswitch over near the room's door.
She flipped the switch off. The lights in the room turned off. She flipped the switch on. The lights in the room turned on. She flipped the switch off. And on. And off. And on and off and on and off and on and off and on and off.
"You guys are such freaking squares," she took a moment to state.
And then on and off and on and off and on and so on. And then she started doing it as quick as she could, and the lights strobed until her finger got tired.
