Capitalism, Hey!: AlcheME!

[ Everything fades to black...and you awaken in a run-down one-room shack, with the distinct feeling that the people around you are your family, if you didn't already have such a bond with them.

You're wearing raggedy versions of your uniform, and a newspaper informs you that you are currently in %COUNTRYNAME%, in the year %CONTEMPORARY%. The newspaper is otherwise actually fairly unhelpful, aside from something detailing a recent high-profile murder having been solved: despite confusion on the part of the authorities conducting the initial investigation, it turns out the victim had been tragically murdered via gun in the knife.

What do you do? ]

Okay, um... I'll leave you in charge of that? My handwriting's terrible.

[ FINGER GUN ]

I'll handle all crimes and crime accessories. Also, I want to rob ZRAEL because I'm sick of them never getting any shit.

Zrael saved K and C in the space game though.

I will get a side gig doing tarot readings and selling lucky charms to supplement our income in the future.

What will we skip out on budget wise?

I guess so, but stealing from Baritones every time is gonna make us look like we have a grudge.

We can knock a bit off every category? Even it out.

I guess that's true...and it's not like I can control who you steal from anyway.

We can't afford everything. We'll need to skip either housing or food.

If we steal, we have 2000 to allocate. Recommended specs are 2400. 4 categories. If we knock 100 off each, that evens out, unless we want some savings.

I suppose so....

I'm not a steal boy but like I said I can't stop you.

What if you stole from the mines instead? Or a bank?

I mean, obviously a bank is a better target, sure.

You could steal tools from the mine to do a break in heist instead of a scary run and gun heist.

It's true that there isn't a price for guns so I couldn't do that kind of heist anyway.

We'll aim to break into the bank vault using coal mining tools but in case that doesn't work I think ZRAEL will be fine if they get stolen from.

We'll get you tools for your bank heist.

Okay, so you want me to just show up to work like a good boy so that nobody suspects you're doing crimes?

Go for it. Be the face of our beautiful family. The cute, law-abiding face.

All right, but the minute we get the chance to do something that isn't hit rocks with axes all day I want in on that too.

I'll let you know when I need muscle.

Well, if there's one thing hitting rocks with axes is good for it's muscle, right?

Exactly, exactly.

Who're you thinking of stealing from, anyway?

B has suggested we tunnel under the hypothetical bank and heist, and I'm for that. But if that's not possible then, like, ZRAEL?

We'll be good work boys!

Maybe we can say U's gone... gone to sea or something? And then he can hide in the house and only come out to steal.

Gone to sea. What kind of novel is this.

A bad one? We're already stuck down a coal mine for... entertainment or something...

I think there's a song for this.

There's a song for everything if you look hard enough. Might even be an idol song, too. Cute Coalmine Crusaders, kind of thing.
