He hands you an unorganized fistful of tickets, activating your latent OCD levels.

You and Glamison share a glance.

"...somethin' tells me that's kinda weird, kid, but I like your gusto, so I'll settle with your face."

How will you sign his face?

Be polite, like "to my awesome fan, Tramp Chief, *Radmin," but draw a middle finger after it. That, or add "everybody else can f* off" at the end.

You keep it simple, and also leave enough room for Glamison to do the same. Someday when you gain admin powers, you can have so many words floating through him.

As soon as you two finish, he runs over to a reflective glass surface. He laughs.

>"You two did not disappoint!" he says. "Thank you so much! I died in stage 1 and thought 'was that it' but no, I met someone important! Thank you so much!"

You've got to step it up, cause you don't feel like an asshole at all right now. You and Glamison wait in line, and although there are some shocked looks and stares from many tables, no one comes running up to get your signature.

Which isn't surprising, since it's not like there's any point, but apparently that didn't stop Glitcher from making a gift shop. You two make your way to a secluded booth with a view and shoo off the previous people sitting there.

>"Holy shit this pizza is amazing." Alison says.
"Hey, it really is."
>"Is that what food is like this cycle? I'm jealous."
"Nope, even the 'best' felt like food in a dream compared to this stuff."

This is the dream/ghost zone. Anything is possible.

"Lay it on me, just keep it down."
>"This is all pretty weird, isn't it? Like everyone here just died, right, then came back to be a participating audience of a bunch of admins being wrestling literally hours ago if I heard right. I mean I probably sounded like I'm rolling with it, but you know, the last thing I remembered... well, I died in stage 4 or so, right? But enough people absorbed me that things kept going. Eventually the powerhouses made it to stage 11. The Arbiter, someone called the Warlock, and some guy named Petal. They had a long talk with us, and they were going to fight the CAI or something. And that was it. I went to sleep, next thing I know, some spotty guy named the glitcher tells me that over 2000 cycles have passed since then."

You finish chewing while formulating a response, but she adds something.

>"And he's telling me I'm gonna wrestle the hell out of some administrators to help this cycle somehow. Is that weird to anyone else or am I just a weird great-grandma here?"

Well your hair is pretty retro.

>>717223
Brilliant.

>"And he's telling me I'm gonna wrestle the hell out of some administrators to help this cycle somehow. Is that weird to anyone else or am I just a weird great-grandma here?"
No, it's all pretty weird. But honestly, I think at this point people welcome weird stuff and jumping off the rails instead of normal everyone fighting to the death stuff.

Look at it this way. Normally, Glitcher is all boring, and scared and reluctant to use his powers. Normally, the admins don't even bother to make a Rulekeeper. But now, they've both decided they don't want to follow the rules, they want to do stuff, and they're cutting loose. This is people who never allowed themselves to have fun cutting loose. So yeah, it's weird. But I figure, if this is what they do when they start fooling around for the first time, imagine what happens when they get serious. Things are gonna change, this cycle.

>>717225
Tell her the CAI is unbeatable, they have a literal IWIN button. This cycle is special, though. Rulekeep is an entity who has never existed before, a god in the sim on par with Glitcher, and he convinced her to join forces with him... apparently they're going to leave this cycle somehow, to find a way to stop the unending tragedy? They've already gained a large amount of access to previous cycles, obviously. They'll probably come back right at the end with a solution for us.

Oh right and they're obviously dating.

Nope this cycle has been unique. Apparently we have had a few events that no records have mentioned before.

Your current incarnation managed to figure out a way to get Glitcher and Rulekeeper together somehow and now we are here to vote them super powers.

I think she did have to die for it to work though.

Of course it's weird. This is all weird. You're pretty sure Rulekeeper and Glitcher working together this way might not be something that's ever been the case before, and they're making things happen that haven't ever happened before. As far as you know, this is all new.

You don't know what's going to happen, but that's exactly the way things need to be. And you, for your part, intend to keep this ball rolling.

Because it's totally rad.

... Also because you have a huge ego and you'd be pretty happy fucking everything up so long as you knew you had a hand in it.

Also also, if she's a great-grandma then she looks VERY good for her age.

"Well, your hair gives off a retro feel."
>"Ha. It started off smooth, you know. Completely straight cut, not a fray to be seen. Each stage and each safe zone though it got way out there, and it felt right."
"Well I'll have you know that for a 2000 generation old grandma, you look great. Now here's real back to you. It's all weird. But at this point, people welcome the weird. We'll hop off the rails even if it's just a cliff on either side. Seems like by stage 3 or 4, everyone starts catching wind that we've done this three thousand times. And that we're just fighting for our lives to run off a cliff at the end. And the CAI fight at the end? Rigged. there's no way to win it, at least not normally. Normally Glitcher is boring. Scared and reluctant to use his powers, because it's backfired in the past. Normally the administrators don't make a rulekeeper."
>"Rulekeeper's existed before too?"
"Not as she is now, but statistically speaking, you can bet there's been rulekeeper-like things in the past. Not like this one, probably. Anyways, Glitcher didn't need to set up all this. He can put whatever administrators he wants on the roster."
>"So why'd he do it?"
"Because he and Rulekeeper are fooling around. Probably behind closed doors too, cause they're dating, which is definitely new."
>"Haha, really? But do tell me more about this fooling around."
"This is it. This is what happens when they fool around, so you can imagine what happens if they get serious."
>"Hmmm... I don't think they're completely fooling around."
"Oh?"
>"When he told me everything he did, he did sound like he was screwing around, except for one thing. He told me... to give a good show. It didn't matter if I won or lost. But that this was for the audience. He didn't say it, but he made it sound like that was the absolute most important thing to have happen. This feels like one big safe zone. Maybe cause it's all I know, but it just feels like I should be able to look out here and see some big timer counting down when we all gotta move down and die by the bucketload. But hey, maybe we'll come back in a few cycles and slapped in some go-karts and told by some new force that we gotta race to the finish."
"Ha. Far as I can tell, this is the safe zone, and the timer's counting down to the end of the intermission where I'm gonna go back to twirling Sweatermouse! I think I heard someone say the intermission was gonna be about 8 hours, but it took a damn long time just to get here! Anyway, whatever those two have planned, I'm gonna keep the ball rolling, cause it's rad."
>"Man, I hope so. You should go be even radder and apologize to that mouse. She seemed more confused than I did."
"I plan on it before my next match!"

There's plenty to do in town, but not much of it is productive. Then again, that may not even matter.

Why don't you go take Glam Alison to meet Sweatermouse. Get your apology in and find out her story.

>>717243
We gotta go be rude to people. Keep boosting up your role, make up for being (almost) nice to that kid.

>>717243
If you WANT to do something productive well...
Want to do something crazy, Alison? Like make a sex tape and have the operator's hack into every monitor in the city and show it off? That's a thing some wrestlers do... I think. You're IN character as a pervert, even if you're not really, so it would be IN character. Should I say that it would be a... REproductive thing to do? Ehhh? Eh?

>You should go be even radder and apologize to that mouse. She seemed more confused than I did.
Yeah, she's in a weird spot. She died at some point, then got brought back in stage 8 which uses a bunch of ghosts for some reason. Then something happened to mess that up for her, so she ended up here. Double Resurrection confusion!

>Do anything productive
Go shopping for some stuff to use in pranks and tricks an cheating?

See if you come across anyone you know to plot and share information with?

...and yeah, gotta bury the hatchet with Newsweatermouse at some point.

>>717246

To get the full impact on this, you would have to have some explanation within this tape in order to explain what sex even is to the greater portion of the audience.

To the point that it would just be a public service announcement on sex-ed, starring you and Alison.

And you're no educator.

"Alright. Gonna have time later to check out more of the town, buy some things, have this pizza, and be a big ol' jerk so they can have some playbacks for the next match. But you know what? I will apologize to Newsweatermouse before I go and forget or find something better to do! Wanna come with? I'm curious what her story is, since I have my doubts that Glitcher chose her at random."

You head back and find the Ref's door and give it a knock.

Well we can't have you be Sweaterlessmouse forever. I apologize for commandeering your sweater, and so I return it. *(gently) toss it in her face*

This had better be off the record, but yeah sorry about not giving you a real fight. Not sorry about stealing your sweater though.

"Ha, I had my suspicions you secretly liked to be teased!"

Aha! I thought you might have ran into her. I haven't seen her myself since starting stage 8. Then all this happened.

Makes me almost neutral to him being an administrator.

"Well, that's a good pausing point. Everyone's in a good mood. It warms my metaphorical heart"
"Does that mean you'd like to leave this cycle in stasis and begin time travelling?"
"Mayyyybe. I wonder if we should tell these guys that we already declared 4 random admin losers to actually be the winners of the whole thing and made them go ahead and give you permanency. All so that we didn't have to wait for this to end?"
"I doubt it would harm anything as long as you also explain that we had those four administrators agree to relinquish their position to the four new winners. Which will be the actual winners. Really, all we did was place temporary administrators in while the slots were empty."
"Yeah okay."

Point is is that we went ahead and gave Rulekeeper permanency and access to every material thing this cycle. Still, I got pretty caught up in watching these guys make fools of themselves. I can't do it forever, because having a million people with autonomy in a stage that's meant to have 400 is setting off all kinds of red flags that alert a potentially higher power than what is contained in this cycle. But I can keep it up long enough to finish this event. On the other hand, it may be nice to stagger the good times with the times where we visit depressing, doomed cycles.

It all boils down to two options.

Choose next thread:
Put wrestling on hold; begin time travelling.
Continue wrestling, do time travelling later.

>>717289
Let's do some time travel.

I like time traveling now so we can come back to the silliness later after seeing sad stuff.

Time travel, says I.

Also, the matching teeth are charming, but I half wonder if the two of you are at risk of accidentally merging into a singular being. It wouldn't be good if you turned into a thing that glitches the system enough that it starts breaking. ...a Corruptor, if you will.
So practice safe cybersex, you two.

Well... I do love me some wrasslin', but variety is the spice of life, so let's go check out some doomed timelines.

Yeah, you guys will probably want to recover some later, moodwise, so time travel. Are you just going yourselves, or planning to bring anyone with you? Maybe you can't bring anyone else with you, but, though you're both the gods of this place and how it works and all, you're both kinda inexperienced at some things, I think. Like, socially. Maybe. I don't know, perhaps that won't be important.

Oh, and do you guys know what's up with Corrupter yet? Has he been watching the wrestling, too? ... if you pause him, he doesn't have some freaky thing to unpause himself, does he? Doing things he's not supposed to be able to do is kind of a thing of his.

>ask for backstory
>immediate pause.
Well maybe we'll hear the tail end when we get back.

Pffffff. I guess this whole contest thing get a handle on personalities, so you could pick people who would be willing to comply without trying to push their own agendas or backstab you.

I guess it's time for time traveling. Do you have any locations in particular to start with? When looks interesting?

We'll probably start out ourselves, but if I'm right, we can teleport people across cycles as well.

>I guess this whole contest thing get a handle on personalities, so you could pick people who would be willing to comply without trying to push their own agendas or backstab you.
Well it was at first but now it's to let a million people live a little bit. Especially if I fuck something up bad on this time travelling mission and this cycle gets considered fully corrupt and gets purged or something.

If I can do it in mass then maybe I could shove everyone into a single cycle! Why not.

>Do you have any locations in particular to start with? When looks interesting?
Checking out the very first cycle may lead to something interesting, or maybe it's the most boring thing ever.

Also feels like some of those easter eggs might've been scattered across cycles somehow, but we'll find out if that's really the case soon enough.

There's also a small cluster of about 10 consecutive cycles where it seems like the structure is slightly different. Don't know what's up with that.

There's also a near fully corrupted cycle.

Probably just going to start with visiting random cycles and getting an idea what happened.

"Let's do some time travelling, Rulekeeper, and maybe fit in some time to find out where the corruptor went off to."
"Alright. Let's not spend too long at once, Glitcher. If there are red flags for what you're doing here, I would imagine there's a greater set of red flags for completely changing what cycle is activated."
"Well we'll watch out for signs of the CAI gods getting angry with our mortal meddling, then appease them with sports entertainment to act like this cycle is going anywhere. We've got a lot to cover."
