Welcome back, gladiator.

Recap: You survived your second match in the Neu-Moskau skullbash, albeit with a broken arm. You were wheeled to the hospital by your coach, Applehead. There’s also a mafioso known as Fifty Cousin Jim running amok in the city looking for his cousins. He believes that a powerful man, Mr. Bronx, is in possession of them.

“Doctor, do I really need this dental bib?” you ask.
“No, but it makes me more comfortable. I used to be a dental care bot.”
The medical bot takes the needle out of your arm.
“The nanobots will rearrange your fractured bones. Ready?”

You remember yet again the grade school performance of Romeo and Juliet that ruined your life, and the teacher responsible for it all: Commando Destructo. Thoughts of revenge help slightly.

The pain slowly subsides. The bot lets go of your arm, which flops to the ground. You now have control over your LEFT ARM.

“Your first visit to the hospital is free.” The bot pats you on the back. “Have a nice day.”

It ushers you out of the room, yelling “NEXT” into the intercom.

You should meet up with your coach, Applehead. Down the hall, however, a vending machine catches your eye.

It's more than a little chilly in the hospital gown, but suing seems out of the question. The only lawyer you know is a bit of a dumbass.

>>41750870
>>41750867
It's full of HATS. You have a little spending money, but are cautious to enter into an another long-term relationship.

>>41750884
You kick the machine. It startles you when it talks.

“Howdy there!” the machine says. “This here contraption is owned by Big Dick’s Small Prices, slowly expanding into both the vending machine game and Big Dick’s Halfway Inns. Try your luck at a hat, partner!”

“Yeehaw, partner!”

The machine violently shakes, slamming into the wall. The pile of hats are thrown from side to side until one lands down the chute. The machine is still.

You reach in and grab the hat. It's a FEDORA.

You put it on and it feels wrong, so cold and empty. I mean, you kind of look like a mafiaso, but they kill people with guns and shit. You can’t wear this.

You pocket the FEDORA into your inventory.

You back off the machine, still in mourning over your SUNHAT. Is this really what the SUNHAT would have wanted?
>>
>>41751201
Aww man, a fedora? That sucks.
We can always trade it for something else later.

>>41751201
Sunhat wouldn't approve. Fedora is a nice hat, but it's just not for you.

"Surgery sucks. How often did you have to go through that?"

"Well, after the lab accident I was in the hospital for a month. The doctors couldn't do anything. After a while, my wife stopped visiting."

He slowly puffs his cigar.

“You ready to go?" you ask.

Applehead looks away. “I… um, got approved for the new surgery, thanks to your money.”

“That’s great,” you say. “What’s the catch?”

“Well, there's always the chance it won't do anything like last time. They want to do it today, but I won’t hesitate to turn them down if you need me, kid. I’d hate to leave you around this shitty city by yourself.”

"Actually, I was planning to do exactly that."

“Hah, this kid! Always with the bad jokes. See you in about a week, kid.”

You wave him off and exit the hospital.

It’s not a busy day in this part of town, perhaps because of the chill in the air. The wind picks up, freezing you to the bone.

Walking down the street, you see a tree. It’s the only one you seen since you entered Neu-Moskau.

You're wearing all your clothes right now. Your two-piece wrestler uniform is under your gown.

As for the hat, you have a large amount of storage space in your robo-legs.

There is no denying that clothes must be found before nightfall, however.

>>41751886
You try hugging the tree, but it's pretty uncomfortable. Maybe you're not as much of a nature-lover as you thought you were.

Someone tried to scratch the American flag on the tree. You’re not sure why the Colonial Administration that runs this city uses a new design. That must have made a few people in Washington angry. In fact, since the war’s over, why hasn’t America clamped down on Neu-Moskau yet?

You saw American soldiers marching to battle across the ruins of Europe but never really paid attention to where they were going. The university students like you had more immediate problems to deal with, like daily survival.

But enough of the past. You move on.

He glares, slightly raising your levels of SOCIAL ANXIETY.

You cautiously try on the FUR HAT and HOLY SHIT the FUR HAT feels COMFY as fuck.

>>41752329
You are still being glared at as you open the NOTE. You try to forget him as you read.

“Hello, Unseen! I couldn’t find a SUNHAT, so here’s some things I looted a while ago. The BOMBER JACKET comes from some American war pilot I met after the war, the FUR HAT from a Canadian assassin. I hope you’re okay with haunted objects. Ha! That was a joke.

He lets out a grunt.

“Is fine. Can not blame worm for being worm,” he says. "Have nice day."

He departs. You relax.

Oh, you can level up. How long has that been there?

You can upgrade a skill or gain a new one:

You were never told if downtown served Knockoffs, so perhaps it’s better to play it safe.

You arrive at the slums of the lower district. It’s packed, despite your earlier observations. You hear and jostle with a lot of Germans in the streets.

You walk around the block until you find a tiny barbershop.

You find yourself in a room that smells like a chemical plant exploded.

There is another customer in the room, his face covered by a newspaper.

“Why, hello there! Come on in.” You look around for a voice, then realize that it was the machine in the middle. "

“Well don’t be so shy, take a seat.”

The barber bot nudges you towards it.

You sit down and take off your FUR HAT. The barber wraps a blanket around you.

“It’s terrifying. In the last fight I went up against a psycho with a bardiche axe-thing. I’m pretty sure that it was bigger than my head. Anyways, that axe is the reason I’m getting this haircut. It’s stupid, dangerous work just so I can stay in this city.”

“I’ve had some danger in my life,” he says. “And your fighting only makes you stronger, doesn’t it?”

“Oh, not really. Just a lot of injuries.”

You roll up to the house gates. A Colonial Administration soldier comes and shines a flashlight into the car.

“Sir, this is private property,” the guard says.
“I have an appointment with the Bronx.”

The guard looks closer. “50 Jim. You attacked two of my friends last night. You’re an asshole, you know that?”

“I know. Now can you please just let me in?”

The guard turns away and talks to the intercom.

Tim asks if you have any orders to give out to the gang.

The intercom crackles behind the guard.

“It’s fine, let them in,” it says.

The guard opens the gates and you get out of the car.

“Pick me up around an hour from now. Get the gang ready for SERIOUS BUSINESS,” you tell Tim.

Tim nods and drives off.

The guard takes you to the front of the mansion. A fellow blonde shakes your hand at the door.

“Welcome to the Bronx estate. I’m Jane, the Administrator’s daughter. The American one, I mean.”

“I’m 50 Jim. I run a business down on Angel Road.”

“Angel Road? Isn’t that where the Batters gang is?”

“Used to be. They’re not so much of a problem anymore.”

“I’m sure you have a lot of stories, but we shouldn’t keep daddy waiting. Please follow me.”

She walks you to her father’s office, the guard following. The mansion’s filled with a lot of American artifacts, like a copy of the Declaration of Independence written word for word on the ceiling.

Jane knocks on the door. “Daddy, someone’s here to see you.”

Mr. Bronx opens the door.

“50 Jim, how are you?” He offers his hand.

You shake his hand.

“Well, aren’t we off to a pleasant start?” he says.

He motions you in.

Jane starts to follow, but Mr. Bronx stops her. “Go to your room, Jane.”

“But I already finished reading all the treatises on city-state economics.” she says.

“Even the one on Milan?”

“... no,” she admits.

Mr. Bronx hugs her. “Be a good girl, Jane. I’ll see you in a bit.”

She leaves.

“Smart girl,” you tell him.

“She’s genetically engineered to be hyper intelligent, so she damn well better be. She’s going to be a fine Administrator.” Mr. Bronx claps his hands. “So, what do you drink?”

One of your most embarrassing secrets is that you can’t drink alcohol. You sell it, unregulated, all across the poorest districts of the city. But you promised mom to stay away from it yourself.

“Milk, if you please,” you say.

“Boy, a margarita and some milk,” Bronx yells down the hall.

You look around the room, your eye landing on the pre-war flag behind Mr. Bronx.

“It’s a damn shame what happened to our beautiful country,” Mr. Bronx says, noticing your gaze. “Those damn Germans and their war.”

“The war’s over, Bronx. You can relax."

“Those hordes of refugees that came flooding into the city, still can’t even speak a lick of English.”

“We are in Germany, Bronx.”

He puts a hand on your shoulder.

“We are in Neu-Moskau, the last bastion of America on this dead world. Jim, don’t you miss America?”

“Heh. You’ve lost sight of what it means to be an American, Jim," Mr. Bronx says.

“And you’ve lost sight of the present. America is dead. Now give me what I came for, my cousins -”

“Boy, where are you?” he yells down the hall.

“I’m coming, shut your trap,” the kid answers.

The kid comes in, balancing a bottle on a small plate.

That’s one of your cousins, Rim! There's no telling when you'll see him again, but do you want to risk blowing your cool?

You consider hugging him right then and there, but think. Do you really want to give him false hope in case you can't get him out today?

It's your fault that they were captured, after all.

You avert your eyes. Now isn’t the time to reveal yourself.

Cousin Rim leaves.

Mr. Bronx chuckles. "What's wrong, Jim? Did you forget your cousins already?"

Something about Mr. Bronx has been unnerving you since the meeting started.

You look a little closer. Is Mr. Bronx... wearing a mask? You always thought that it was an aura of evil, but now you’re not so sure.

“Mr. Bronx, I challenge you to face me in your first daughter’s arena, Emma Lavoie's Neu-Moskau Skullbash!”

“Don’t ever refer to that illegitimate Lavoie as my daughter again,” he says. “And, if you can beat my bodyguard, Commando Destructo, I’ll let you have a chance at me.”

Destructo walks into the room with a calm, bored face.

“I’d consider your next words very carefully,” says Destructo.

“It’s a deal.”

From above, there’s a loud groaning of wood.
Part of the roof caves in and dust fills the room.
The door opens behind you. Jane shouts as she runs in, “Daddy!”

You cough and squint your eyes.

You are Loveday, the Slightly Unseen.

Slick whispers to you. “Do you see anything?”
“They all went inside. Let me down.”

Slick eases you back to Earth.

You pull Slick up after some encouraging words.

You are in the Bronx Estate Courtyard. You both rush behind the cover of a conveniently placed crate.

There’s an AIR VENT on the left side. Those are always sneaky, right? Plus, they’re guaranteed to have loot.

A TREE reaches the third story window if you’re a fan of climbing. The FRONT DOOR is open, but you’re sure you’ll get shot on sight.

“Thanks for letting me use your boots, by the way,” you say.

“No problemo. You looked like you needed some style,” he says.

“By the way, why did you have a woman’s pair of boots?”

“...”

“Are you into women’s clothing or -”

“What, no. I bought the wrong size, so I went to return it for another size. Then when I got home I found out it was a woman’s pair. By that point, I thought it was better to give up. Lawyer business and all, you know,” he explains.

You'd rather not have any more nanobot injections, thank you.

“Think you can make it?” you ask with an attempt at an adorable face.

“What, why me? That window sill does not look stable,” says Slick.

Surely it would immediately break and fall to the ground.

>>41759660
We could also climb to a higher branch and jump on the roof.

You're on the highest possible branch without getting a face full of leaves.

> “I’d do it myself, but a member of the team thinks I’m too fat. Also, it's just a two story drop. What are you afraid of?”

"Okay, I'm a dick, I admit it. But that doesn't mean..."

You think your pouty face has convinced him.

“Fine,” he says as he gets in position.

He jumps.

He lands and shatters the glass, smashing his foot and arm through the window. He starts to lose his balance.

“Holy shit, you actually did it!” you yell.

“The Slick’s too slick,” he says in a call for help.

If he fell, it would make a lot of noise. Also, he might die or something.

No time to think of a one-liner! We've got to act!

WOOOOOOO!

Maybe not my best.

You tackle him, getting you both inside.

You are in the ATTIC.

You lift Slick up to his feet.

“Thanks,” he pants.

“No problem.”

You walk around, looking for an entrance.

“Could you help me out with my Spanish?” he asks.

“Why now? This is the worst possible time to teach you a foreign language,” you whisper.

“Well, there’s this hot Brazilian chick I keep running into and I wanted to ask her out in the sexiest way I can. How do I say that?”

> “Brazilians don’t speak Spanish.”
> “Tú eres un idiota.”
> “Me cago en todo lo que se menea.”

You'll want to talk to her in English. If you ask in Spanish, she'll probably try talking to you in Spanish, and you shouldn't start a conversation in another language if you can't finish it.

"Yeah but I think I sound sexier in Spanish. I am el Gato in the bedo, eh-o?" He grins.

There's no helping this man anymore then you already have.

There’s a groan of wood below your feet.

“The hell was that?” asks Slick.

> “The floor.”
> ?

>>41760493
Sounds like something's happening downstairs. Put your ear to the floor and listen.

You lower to the floor to eavesdrop. Unfortunately, the old wooden floor gives way.

The floor caves in as a cloud of dust surrounds you.

“Daddy!” you hear as you tumble down.

You cough and open your eyes. You see Mr. Bronx’s real face, the vile Commando Destructo, 50 Jim, and a blonde lady.

“Hi,” you say with a shy smile.

“Who are you?” asks the girl.

> Look to 50 Jim for help
> “A high maintenance girl. Get it… because the ceiling… aha.”
> “If this were home invasion, which it totally isn’t, I’d be the fall guy.”
> "It's Fall and I'm the leaf-blower person... no, wait, I don't even understand that one."
> Some other falling related joke

>>41760710
Nobody, just thought I'd drop in, say hi.
And, oh, look, I've done both of the above.
Well, I best be going then.

>>41760710
>"Oh, I just wandered here from uptown."

You spray out joke after joke, growing increasingly nervous at the lack of laughter.

50 Jim spots your desperation to live.

“That’s Carnival. She’s my bodyguard.”

He winks to you.

“She just broke my ceiling,” says Mr. Bronx.

“That’s just the 50 Jim style,” he says proudly.
