I powered through some more after the last update, I was in the mood tonight and had the time!

With Team Q we get our first but surely not last Radical-6 mention of the game! Also another virus with a 100% mortality rate. Zero sure likes telling stories about the heart ripper killer or whatever their name was from 17 years ago, and some woman who died. After the puzzle we have to choose whether to inject ourselves with Rad-6 or not. It's a neat choice, I decide to go for it and to my surprise Q's reasoning is the same as my own, way to go game.

This appears to be the correct choice, and leads to another story about Eric's sad childhood and why he smiles all the time. If he wasn't prone to murdering children I might really like him! It's a great bonding scene between the trio... that takes a sudden turn when Mira starts laughing at Eric's painful reveal. And then she says something about not guessing the right way to react. And then she kills Eric and Q with a scalpel, and starts laughing some more. I, uh... what? Huh?? Suicidal tendencies are a symptom of Rad-6, could the combined Rad-6 + FBR have created a murderous impulse instead? Or does Mira have some deeper issues going on? Why she suddenly decides to murder her boyfriend, I haven't a clue. I certainly didn't see that coming.

Team C then spends time in the rec room. Carlos tells a snippet of his backstory, urging Junpei to speak his mind while they're still alive as Jumpy stares at a ring (hm). I spend too long in this room because it takes me forever to notice the cigarettes on the bar. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise though, as upon victory we are rewarded by being gunned down. OK!

You know, I would almost respect this game if the goal here is to roll these dice hundreds of times until the odds go our way. Almost. I don't think they're quite that sadistic though, so I'll leave this be until we have more info or our super psychic timeline powers trigger or something.

I briefly pop back on the game after reading MSG's post to try some answers for Mira's killer. I was thinking what else I could type- someone else, a stranger, nobody, the strangler, anyone, but the idea I landed on is to type 'I dont know'. And sure enough, it works! Even without an apostrophe on the keyboard! Thank you for the hint :) Q starts bawling and that is enough to break Eric's rage and calm him down. We then get another story from him, recounting his and Mira's relationship. She reminds him of his mother (hmmmmm), and oddly enough he doesn't mention any sudden murderous tendencies of hers. The route locks off for no good reason, and that's that for tonight!
