[ Deely's already read the letter on the nightstand, and has come to the conclusion that whoever wrote it must think she's dumb as shit. In-fucking-sane, she is not doing that under any circumstances. What is this, a Saw trap? No. She's just gonna sit right here, reclined on this outdated old bed with her arms folded across her chest, lips pursed, and wait until "The Mayor" gives up with this crazy bloodletting shit. She's stubborn as hell and will dig her feet even when most other reasonable people would have long ago capitulated. Deely can outwait anyone. ]
Hey, I just had a great idea: fuck this.
☞ 002. ROLLER ROAST !
Don't worry, you look so cool right now.
[ Deely's hanging out by the side of the rink, elbows on the low wall that surrounds it, watching everyone who's decided to throw caution to the wind, hop in there and start rolling. Deely herself has no intention of joining them, at least not yet; she'd much rather hang out on the sidelines, slowly erode people's self-confidence by yelling stuff at them, and possibly witness a few pratfalls. Much more fun. ]
I bet nobody else can tell it's your first time. You're barely shaking at all!
☞ 003. PINBALL WIZARD !
[ Pinball was always Deely's favourite game in an arcade. This does not mean she was ever good at it. At this point it's basically a money pit into which Deely is pouring that $100 she was so graciously given for showing up, but it's kind of like gambling, in that she simply can't seem to stop herself. When someone comes up to the machine, whether it's to stand in line or just to watch, she doesn't look up from the ball bouncing around inside. ]
There's like a million other games in this place, why don't you make like a bee and— Aw, shit! [ Her last ball drops into the hole and disappears, and the machine plays a frankly depressing little stinger. ] That was your fault.
☞ 005. FASHION SHOW !
Oh, wow, this place is awesome.
[ Judging by the tone of Deely's voice, it's pretty clear she thinks exactly the opposite as she's standing outside Oblivion, which looks to her like Hot Topic before it started selling Disney merch. She has her arms folded as she stares at the window display, taking in the mannequin wearing a trenchcoat, a studded belt and a pair of black pants so tight they look painted on. ]
I've always wanted to look like Neo from The Matrix trying to sneak into an R-rated movie.
☞ 005. WILDCARD !
[ character info here, sorry it's still a wip. tl;dr: late 90s child actor is now washed up adult with way too much trauma. hit me up crowders if you wanna do something else. ]
