Tombkept

Eight friends enter a new world. There submerged in battle, betrayal, and bees they must survive to enter the new world.

>Jump on the deck and flop like a fish.

Nah, too much effort.

[tombkept-comic]

>Jump into your pile of shirts.

Sure, why not? Should be pretty comfortable, plus you can continue to not sleep since it’s not that comfortable.

[tombkept-comic]

>Theo: Consider why you decide to keep chips in the fridge as they do not need to be kept cold.

You like them cold! And besides, this way you can keep them somewhere in your room where food is supposed to be.

[tombkept-comic]

>Open your fridge and monch.

You are kinda hungry...

Not a whole lot in there, but you do grab some chips.

[tombkept-comic]

>Were you doing something?

Well, you were thinking about napping (despite your best judgement and the very likely wrath) but now you’re not so sure what you should do. You do have some downtime before, you know, the world ending and everything. Maybe you could do some puzzles or something.

Well, that was weird.

Your name is Theo Tappin, you enjoy a wide variety of things, though in the most general sense you enjoy ANIME and PUZZLES. You’re not exactly the neatest type, but that’s okay, you know where everything is. It’s a controlled chaos. You’ve really been getting into OVERWATCH lately, you even have some tourneys you compete in, but those won’t be going on for that much longer.

Now what?

LP: ; haven’t the sl;ghtest ;dea what you’re talk;ng about LP: ; am ent;erly and utterly baffled by the text com;ng from you on my computer screen XR: So what you’re telling me is that you somehow and for some inexplicable reason have some sort of knowledge of the future -that you STILL haven’t told me by the way- but you were in no way related to the time hole in my house. XR: Right? LP: what LP: happened? XR: Some sort of weird, fluorescent green, black hole opened and spit out two discs one of which says, “Server” and the other says, “Client.” XR: And I’m guessing that these are, “Surb” or whatever. LP: ;t’s sburb, but yeah that would be the two discs that come w;th ;t XR: Okay. XR: So. XR: I’m thinking I should destroy these immediately, right? LP: why??? XR: Aren’t these going to cause some sort of XR: time paradox or something? LP: well LP: fuck ; don’t know LP: are they from the future? XR: I DON’T KNOW! LP: okay LP: no need to caps at me XR: LILY PLEASE THIS IS SERIOUS! LP: lp, please. XR: Right, sorry.

LP: l;sten man ;’m play;ng th;s all by ear LP: ;’m do;ng my best LP: prosp;t d;dn’t tell be sh;t about a time portal open;ng ;n your floor or whatever XR: It actually just opened out of thin air and that kind of terrifies me more. LP: Whatever. LP: all ;’m try;ng to say ;s l;ke LP: download the game? XR: Wh XR: NO! LP: please?
