de-Fuse the argument.

Easy trying to defuse the argument (or at least stopping to figure out what the argument is) is the only in-character option.

Definitely defuse the argument. Not doing so would be a completely shit-tier move.

What happened here was fucked, but everyone getting angry at one another for it won't do anything.

Try to defuse the argument: 4 (Req, Easy, Walrus, Tirin)
Start heading up the mountain: 3 (Rondait, Tim, Stealthy)
__________________________________________________________________________________________

Easy shakes his head. His hearing clears up and he forces himself to focus on the problem in front of him. Despite all that happened, he still had people that needed him.

"Easy, you there? What's going on?" says Stealthy over the radio.

"I'll get back to you in a minute," says Easy, walking past Shizno and Chicken, towards Walrus and Ibix.

"Milamber said it was an emergency. Are you okay?"

Easy ignores the question.

Easy ignores Stealthy in order to defuse the argument in front of him, which works out fine. Walrus and Ibix are just scared and upset about what happened. When he gets a moment, Easy sends the others away while he has a private conversation with Stealthy. He tells him a brief summary of what all occurred since they last spoke, about Req and Anatron, and Tirin and Shizno, and all the avoidable death.

"Jesus, Rock," says Stealthy.

"Yeah."

"How're you holding up?"

Easy takes a breath and nearly says "I'm fine," but he stops before the words eek out.

Several moments pass before he continues.

Gonna take a short break from this to do some other forum stuff.

And uh, think of what I want to do for the next chapter.

You guys thinking "fast forward to being at the clubhouse" or more side stuff with another lead character or two before skipping straight to the clubhouse?

Whateva, I'mma be back in like fifteen minutes once I'm done pulling this Obi-Wan Kenobi shit. Also looks like this chapter was an easy way to get PTSD.

I definitely think a sidestory would be pretty cool.

I must disagree.

Though if anything was going to kill me, it would have to be my own grace, mercy, charity, and trust, as in this case.

And then, Serial Killer forum persona Tim murdered the fuck out of Walrus for failing Melody, followed shortly by everyone else for helping Walrus.

The end.
