> remember fond memories of when Tars wasn't murderous

Now you remember, staring at those steely, cold, completely dead eyes.

It's Sir Mulligan McKenzie of Prospit's royal knighthood! Of course, to much of his cohort he was known affectionately as 'Shanks', even as he made trips to Derse as a peacekeeper-- but after he went insane and murdered six of your friends in this SIMULATION, the pet name has felt a little... tasteless.


Unfortunately, he doesn't give you the thumbs-up, as is usually customary. Instead, he just stares much harder at you.

Still, while lost in that horrifying, glazed-over look, you start to reminisce.

One of your fondest memories of Mulligan was when you first met him.



It was a foggy day, back home.



You were waiting in this LOBBY with your very best friend, whose username would later be tiptopGipgop. However, gazing back at this particular memory, you can't quite recall what you were doing there!

Oh no.

Oh jeez no oh no.

Don't tell me you forgot her name, also. She's your best friend, Gene. Holy cripes, get it together.

What was it again? And, in addition, since your mind is completely lost, what exactly were you waiting for in that lobby?
