1st Trick - Video

[vengefulshades]

[Here we have an exceedingly dapper individual-- a slick-looking fellow in a snappy red suit, sunglasses, and ridiculously tall blond hair. He is fiddling around with his communicator, testing out the buttons and functions, though he seems to already have the hang of it. He smirks as he notices the video function working, and addresses whatever masses are out there.]

At first I thought this might be the afterlife. But no such luck, am I right? Right.

Then I thought it might be Purgatory. Somewhere to work off one's sins, you know? But then there was suddenly an agent of the government offering me paperwork and asking if I wanted to work for them.

So it's definitely Hell.

[His voice is light, with the merest hint of amusement in it.]

So now I'm guessing this is more like a party. A real exclusive party that you've got to be lucky to get invited to. And if there's one thing that I am, it's lucky.

[He pushes his sunglasses up further onto his face.]

Were they lying, though? About having a job and a house if I put in the hours? That's the only important part to me.

And I don't trust any G-man to give me a straight answer, either.

If only that were true.

[glassinine]

Oh? Have you proof to the contrary?

[vengefulshades]

Maybe so.

But like you said... this is a different government than the one I know.

[glassinine]

Yet you've no compunctions about passing judgment against it.

[vengefulshades]

Not necessarily. I'm just asking.

Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

[glassinine]

One can only hope so. And hope that you will keep an open mind.

[vengefulshades]

Believe me. All I want is to go to work and then go home like a normal person.
