let's consider a change of scenery [group vandalism]

[dullshooter]

[On Wednesday morning, everyone will find a note outside their suite door. If you can get past Misfire’s dodgy handwriting, it reads:]


Hey LOSERS!!!

Get down to miracle mile 2DAY, 12PM, for some

VANDALISM

[Note: ‘vandalism’ is written with one of those ‘cool S’s.]

kit will be provided BUT if you have a water gun from the machine bring it!!!

P.S no snitches allowed
JK you can come n be target practice ;)


[At the appointed time, Misfire can be found standing triumphantly in the street. Beside him is a pile of spray cans, brushes, and buckets of paint; by the looks of it, he emptied the whole store. He’s wearing the dress Forrest made him too, and using the pocket space to carry even more stuff on him.

When enough people have gathered, he’ll address them:]

Alright, here’s the deal: it’s come to my attention that some of you have missed out some crucial formative experiences, or otherwise haven’t known the joys of anti-social behavior. And, since writing stuff on walls has been a historical expression of dissent, I think there’s no better time or place to fix that.

[Grinning, he picks up something out of his pile - a water gun filled with purple paint.]

Frankie didn’t outlaw vandalism, so let’s make him realize that egregious oversight. In technical terms - go nuts.

[ Helpfully offers: ]

You're doing this wrong.

[giddyundertaker]

[ He turns around and... Presumably gives Seo a Look. ]

I am defacing public property in the name of rebellion, am I not?

[buriedstar]

This is defacing? You're practically giving it a face-lift. Maybe literally?

[ This is some pretty nice street art honestly. ]

[giddyundertaker]

[ Why thank you. ]

And what's wrong with that? I reckon Fontaine might have a harder time banning the practice if he sees some beauty in the chaos. [ Keyword: Might. Let's see how heartless or artistically challenged our dear mayor is. ]

... Besides, I'm not the only one painting the walls like this. You should see what the bloke at the Ice Cream Parlor is doing to it.

[ He's redirecting Seo to Brett and his happy little trees. ]

[buriedstar]

It defeats the point if he endorses it.

[ He looks over at Brett and then back with a huff. ]

Well yeah, but I expect that from him.

[giddyundertaker]

I was hoping to make him feel conflicted, actually...

[ He may also be feeling a bit particular lately... ]

What about you, then? Just gonna stand around and criticize people, or are you planning to join us?

[buriedstar]

Oh? I didn't take you to be thin-skinned either.

[ They both may be feeling particular lately. He shrugs though. ]

This isn't really my type of rebellion. It does make me miss Tweeter, though.

[giddyundertaker]

[ He just scoffs. ]

Then why are you here?

[buriedstar]

I'm fully capable of appreciating without taking part?

[ He says this like it's obvious, almost with a literal "duh" at the end. ]

[giddyundertaker]

Hm... But it isn't quite as fun as taking part yourself, now is it?

[ If he can criticize people's art, he is fully capable of joining in. ]

[buriedstar]

I'd need a message board for that! Or at least something he actually cares about.

[giddyundertaker]

A message board? Don't you mean a bulletin board or something of that sort?

[ Why must you be so specific on your vandalism? ]

[buriedstar]

Do you know what an emoji is?

[ He's just an internet troll at heart, okay. ]

[giddyundertaker]

... A what now?

[ Emoji weren't invented yet. 🤪 ]

[buriedstar]

[ Hold that thought. He's going to walk off and grab a spray can to draw his best impression of the following on the wall: ]

🤑

[giddyundertaker]

... What is that.

[ Is it supposed to look like a bug face? Because it kinda looks like a bug face. ]

[buriedstar]

An emoji spewing money. It's like a smilie face that can express more emotion.
