When the game starts, you find something grabbing onto your ankle and dragging you under the ballpit until you find yourself sitting on a disco floor platform with your team. It is only being held up by eleven balloons.

You make decisions on a cool arcade machine where you can SELECT A TEAM'S BALLOON. If a character is blind or has no hands or smth, you can assume things can be read to you and you can automatically pick through your speech. Thanks, Alexa.

If you look over the platform, you can see a lot of sparkling rainbow spikes below.

Baritones are the suits, yeah?

Re: Discussion

[unbr8kable]

Yeah. They escalated real quick in the auction.

Re: Discussion

[aboyandhiscar]

Yeah, but they were mostly going after another team, yeah? Not really malicious on the whole. What about other games, do they protect themselves alright?

Re: Discussion

[unbr8kable]

Yeah, they aren't the martyr type. I haven't met their new guy yet, so I dunno how he takes things.

[crosses his arms, thinking. why can't everyone be chill with fighting to the death GOTTA PROTECT, UNITMATE'S FRIENDS TEAMS]

[takes a breath]

Okay, how about this. If we hit Baritones this time and they eat it, we definitely owe them a freebie next game. That, and. I'll take the responsibility. I haven't talked to any of 'em myself, so hey, now's a good time.

Re: Discussion

[unbr8kable]

...? What--why?

Re: Discussion

[aboyandhiscar]

Can't bear all the burden yourself, yeah? You're still their friend, no matter what, and the best way to show that is me supporting you. It'd be pretty lame if they blamed you for anything that happened.

You don't gotta do all that. 'S not your fault for wanting to protect people you wanna protect.

Re: Discussion

[aboyandhiscar]

Not about what I gotta do, it's what I want to do. And I told you, you guys are my most important folks here. Preeeeeetty neutral on all the other teams, to be honest. I'm just trying to pick what will cause you guys the least grief.

Re: Discussion

. . .?

[leans over]

Yo? If you got something to say, I wanna hear it. We still have time.

Re: Discussion

[unbr8kable]

...Just didn't expect you to be that type of guy.

Re: Discussion

[aboyandhiscar]

--what kinda guy?

Re: Discussion

[unbr8kable]

Team ride or die. Though I guess we'll see on that last part.

Re: Discussion

[aboyandhiscar]

Heh, to tell you the truth, dying kinda freaks me the heck out. But it's also a little exciting? Like--I'm not scared at all. Just anxious. S'that weird?

Re: Discussion

[unbr8kable]

...I guess you never done it before, so makes sense to anticipate it, at least a little. Spoilers, it's not super fun.
