SHIFT MEME





WELCOME! There's been a lot of SHIFTing in this round, hasn't there? What if you were SHIFTed into another round, or another version of this round, or even one of the rounds in R7's backstory? Or....maybe somewhere else entirely??

Look no further than here! So sit back, tap into the morphogenetic field, and come on down! Your characters are the next contestants on...on wherever they end up! Oh boy!

1. The Ship of Blood Well, this one is familiar at least! But...who are all these people with you? Is that one of the Spardas? Wait-who's that guy with the fedora? You mean there are timelines where there are more rounds!? BOOOOOOOO! 2. The Home of Happiness and Horror Oh great, you're in Denton, Aka a soundstage where you are forced to kill one another in front of a live worldwide audience. Oh, and said audience gets a vote in who dies. Oh, and in some timelines, you randomly start singing! Or...wear full body costumes. It's weird. 3. ??? The Meme is ever-present. The Meme will not be contained. The multiversal clusters are vast and infinite. Perhaps you SHIFT into a previous game. Perhaps you SHIFT into a game as yet known. Or perhaps it is happening right now. Who knows, now...and what fate awaits you...?

[A small moment of silence. And then Bender clears his throat.]

OHHHHHHHkay. QUESTION.

[He steps to the front.]

I get--hear me out, I get why these meatbags are here. You're getting creative with it, you're getting smart, kill all humans, you are a credit to robotkind, all that good shit. It'd even make great TV! But, uh, why am I here? We're the SAME, you and I! I've even got connections. You've heard of Bender, right? Everybody loves Bender! I'm the guy!

The guy is me!

[A beat.]

Let me out and I'll kill one of 'em for free. I'll even laugh while I'm doing it. It'll be hilarious.

[Hermes looks directly above Bender's head and grins before shifting his gaze downward to eye level again. To Bender, this may have appeared as Hermes seeing something happen behind him.]

You mean the one of many mass-produced girder-bending robots made at Fábrica Robótica De La Madre? Ha! Sorry, buuuuuut unless you're a first-gen unit like I am, you'll just hafta gather all the X-Passes you need.

[Balls. He's got his number. Well, he's boned.]

First gen?! You're ancient. No wonder y'don't know anything. Fine, but you ain't gettin' no bloodshed from me since you won't let me go by killing someone!

[...wait, isn't that literally what he wants]

And knowing I'm special. And letting me do it right in front of everyone. I can't even be happy about it.

...Did you at least stock this ship with booze?
