Hiiiiya ! I’m so glad to see those of you I do know and very pleased to meet those of you I don’t.
You, the “Chosen.” I think I’ll give you something to think about. Actually it's a concept that I’ve agonized over for a while!
[ The figure front row and centre chirps from the close proximity to the screen. Strange backdrop for those who won't immediately connect the dots. The skeleton scene of An Attempt(TM) for a birthday just barely viewable over his shoulder. As he leans back from the camera again there's evidence that he's put it together mockingly, perhaps even a little contemptuously going by how many things are askew. It's a red herring, unless...?
At any rate there's no mention whatsoever who it's for—Gogol did say there was something more important on his mind. So he gets right to chattering. ]
Does a devastating control over our lives make a God? And well, I'll also share what I recently realized about that too. At a certain point it doesn’t matter what you call it— because the end result is the same.
Having my existence rewritten against my will makes me want to rebel as much as possible.
[ There's a loud cacophonous sound as he reaches over to grab a balloon and pop it with a needle. After that there hangs a heavy silence ]
Well then, the broadcast ends here.
[ and it does! ]

I dunno if it's 'not caring' or just knowing that you're just gonna do whatever you want anyway...
Monstrous, huh? And it's just gonna be a surprise for us when it happens?
no subject
Should I tell you just because you asked... Well that sort of ruins the surprise don't you think?

That's really too bad. But! If you can make a good enough argument you might be able to appeal to even the most heartless of people?!

I dunno, I'm just sick of people doing dumb bullshit and the rest of us having to deal with it. Like the guy blowing up the fucking city hall and then we get that fucked up other-life for a few weeks. Or probably the same guy blowing up Kestoria, and then we gotta deal with all that aftermath.
It never accomplishes anything and it's just a pain in the ass. So a heads up for the people who are just minding their business out here would be great.
And if it ain't that dramatic, that'd be good to know, too.

It's difficult to gain the desired audience by behaving well.
no subject
Yeah, well none of you crazy fuckers have been successful either. How long are you guys gonna lean on that excuse?
no subject
Dunno. lol!
