uhhh... blank, thats a nice plan n all, but what if they think youre gonna hurt benrey?? you dont exactly have their trust after running off like that,, -🐀

It’s... definitely a worrying thought. And I don’t know how to convince them otherwise. Running away like that was... out of fear. It’s kind of hard to trust anyone after learning that you’re not even supposed to exist anymore. And learning that interacting with others is apparently a horror story to some people.

[bones-and-boxes]

bro that's easy! you literally have the perfect person to help in the garage! bubby already seems to acknowledge that you dont wanna hurt anyone, im sure if you explained your plan and intentions to him he could tell it to the others (plus you getting your files back would mean you'd leave coomer alone, which im sure he'd be interested in) -🕷️

That... may be a really good idea. I’m bringing some food to him now, so I can talk it over with him while I’m there! 

Just, uh... please don’t tell the others... but I think I’ll have to sleep there for the night, too... I... honestly can’t recall the last time I properly slept...

[bones-and-boxes]

Hmmm... Maybe, and if you'd rather not then at least I and any anons I know won't, but maybe we could try and reason with the rest of them before you try to talk to them?

. . . If you could, possibly... Though I doubt they’d actually listen.

[bones-and-boxes]

Social distancing

. . . The fuck is that?

[bones-and-boxes]

I mean... While he may not have all his memories, they do listen to Benrey. And he tried to kill them.

Yeah. BECAUSE he lost his memories. And was turned into a nearly helpless doll.

[bones-and-boxes]

Wouldn't it be best to tell them asap instead of just waiting until the situation gets worse?

I’d love to hear your plan for me to get close without Tommy trying to push me out of Coomer’s body, or Gordon trying to hit me for Cowboy.

[bones-and-boxes]

dude!! that plan sounds mega poggers!! why didnt you start with that bro?? that sounds completely reasonable, im sure they'd be more than happy to help you with that! all u gotta do is tell them -🕷️

. . . How well do you think they’d listen, after what I did. What I’m doing.

[bones-and-boxes]

bro what even,,,is the game at this point? "lets possess everyone until im bored"? sounds kinda lame :( -🕷️

No, of course not!

I just want my files back. I want to exist as a normal character again. But I can’t do that until I get what was taken from me. What was attached to Benrey. Then... Then I can let Tommy copy the files. He can give Benrey those. All of it will be safe and sound, Benrey can remember everything that he already remembered, and even stuff he didn’t. And I’ll be the one who forgets. I can start over, as a new me.
