A [[Tucker (You are the Absurd Hero| | A screenwriter, [[Tucker (You are the Absurd Hero)|Tucker]], goes on and on about the difficulties of robbing a bank these days, how much security they have. Handing you his card, he mentions he's been planning a heist movie, so it's been on his mind a lot. But he just can't get it to work, given the realities of the situation. But, hey. This is your bank right here. Maybe there's another option. | ||
Like a good little capitalist drone maybe you could just sell everything you own, that might be enough? 1ABA | Like a good little capitalist drone maybe you could just sell everything you own, that might be enough? 1ABA | ||

You try to check the order status in the library, thin from starvation, but the librarian exiles you, it's closing time. You walk through the rain, your possessions gone, no rent, no phone or computer. All of it gone, all to buy the book. Soon it will all be worth it though, the package will arrive in the place you once called home. Soon. You try to cross the street, and a car almost hits you, knocks you down. More cars come, rolling over you, shattering your bones - a familiar sensation - as you crawl on. Until finally a mail truck passes over you. | |||
Choose something other than the capitalist option? 1AB | |||
A woman tells you that you should be dead. [[Sibling (rank)|Sister-in-waiting]] [[Annie (You are the Absurd Hero)|Annie]] is carrying paper, and you bite her because she annoys you. She drops the paper, along with a clang of metal, before reaching down and stabbing you in the chest, grabbing her papers and leaving. | |||
Death is preferable to capitalism. You're dead. 1AB | |||
You roll over on the street to find a key jutting into your back. It's marked with ###. No clue what that means. But your wounds have healed, and the sun is shining above you. You return to the library and check the order status again. It's arrived. | |||
Okay, fine, you're alive. 2A | |||
Or do you mess this up somehow? 1B | |||

And you know what? It ''did''. You and Tucker got the cash, but not cleanly. The cops are onto you, surrounding the bank, and your gun is fake. So you do what any self respecting bank robber would do. Bluff. You pull the piece on Tucker, threatening to take him out if they don't let you go. But they've blocked the exits, and won't let you out, one pulls the trigger as you dive. | ||

You dash forward with Tucker, the bullets missing you as you manage to run into a police car. None of the fun toys are present, but the keys still are. The two of you drive away, the cops following after in a high speed chase, a helicopter shadowing you from above. | |||
Do you flee somewhere wet? 1ABBAA | |||

The front of the bank quickly becomes a less than safe place to be - the police are determined to storm the bank, and do so in full force. You dive out the back door, a [[Abel (You are the Absurd Hero)|stranger]] pulling you into an odd looking alley. You confirm your purchase of the book on your phone as he grills you about your relationship to Faction Paradox, how you're planning to break one of their worst members out of prison. You didn't know any of this, but you don't trust this man. Well, you didn't. [[Parent (rank)|Mother]] [[Camus (You are the Absurd Hero)|Camus]] greets you as his body hits the floor, telling you that she just needs to stop this incident right here - stop Sisyphus from escaping before you get time travel. And so you die. | |||
Or do you? Maybe you ''can'' try again. 1ABB | |||
