♤ Chance's POV ♤
So basically, these little dudes called toons live in this place called Gardenview and they have to go down this elevator because blah blah blah, I stopped listening to Rodger yap like hours ago.
Their versions of generators-- or machines are WAY easier, although skillchecks lock you inside of the machine till you complete it, I don't know how that physically makes sense but I guess it's as stupid as Jason's hitbox.
"Huh, didn't think I could get an weakness this high..." I muttered, looking at my whooping 24 weakness, I literally gamble for like ever and I barely got to 2 charges, my luck is ass down here.
"Hey," Astro called from behind me, a blue moon looking dude with one eye and for some reason his hands are stars, or maybe he's just hiding them underneath his blanket, who knows. "Why are you just flicking your coin? It doesn't get machines done..."
"Well if you would shut up, I wouldn't have to gamble for long!" I flicked my coin one more time, it HAS to give me heads now!
TAILS!
"How, the living FUCK, did I get WEAKNESS 25???" I buried my face in my hands frustratingly, if I was still with my buddies, I would be dead meat if Mafioso hit me with corrupt nature or something. "I bet Dusekkar could kill me in an zap..."
Astro tilted his head confusingly, "Normally I try to sympathise with others, but I have no idea what ur complaining about.."
"Ugh, it's basically when I get tails on my coin flip, I get a weakness that multiples each time. And the only way to get rid of it is if I get 3 heads, or charges, and can use an hat fix," I explained, flipping my coin almost 8 more times and getting Tails each time. "I don't know. HOW THIS IS HUMANLY POSSIBLE. IT'S AN 50/50 DAMN IT!!"
Astro nervously chuckled, "Seems you're quite frustrated, here take a chill pill..." he said before magically floating up and sending an pulse of energy around us.
"What the--.. actually I do feel quite calm now," I said, scratching the back of my head.
"Now will you stop gambling--"
"NEVER. STOP. GAMBLING." I stared at him dead in the eye, seemingly intimidating him, I flicked my coin once more, "Come on... come on.. please no whammy's..."
HEADS!
"YES!! PRAISE THE ALMIGHTY SPAW- wait thats Two Time's thing!! YIPPEE!!" I immediately tossed my hat into the air to reset all my weakness, the action feeling like heaven.
I grabbed Astro's shoulders and shook them violently, "THANK YOU FOR WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU DID!! YOU'VE FREED ME FROM MY CURSE!! INSERT GARSHAPOON LMS SONG!!"
Astro nodded confusingly and slowly, I'm pretty sure he's scared of me. "Uh huh.. I'm just gonna... do your machin--"
"Nope! I need my exp baby!!" I immediately hopped on the machine, although they take a while and I can't just speed run them, I still get money of it, heh.
Astro just looked around before walking away, leaving me to complete the machine which happened to be the last one, since after I finished it the elevator swung open, some random 30 second timer starting.
"Welp my luck must be so sky-high right now! Let's gamble for reroll shall we!" I said while walking to the elevator, I got 5 Tails and 2 heads, which isn't too bad, "but this roll, will be the best!!" I said as I pulled out my dice and tossed them in the air, catching them swiftly and looking at them eagerly.
50 HEALTH!!
Gigi looked over to me as she used her gambling ability after I used mine, "Sweet, an jumper cable, what did you get?"
"..."
"Chance..?"
"Gigi... take my gun and shoot me."
"WHAT??" She recoiled back, "Why??"
"How the living FUCK, DOES ONE GET NOT ONLY WEAKNESS 25 IN ONE RUN, BUT ALSO 50 HEALTH??" I yelled, scaring the little black ball girl behind me.
"Daddy! Chance said the curse word!!" She cried.
"FUCK FUCKITY FUCK FUCK, WHY?? GOT A PROBLEM WITH IT."
"Chance c-calm down! Just.. Gamble!" Gigi suggested, looking around to see if Rodger was here yet to stop the little girl from crying.
"You're right! It CAN'T GET WORSE THAT THIS!!" I chuckled, soundly a little too much like Two time I'd admit, I pulled my coin out of my pocket and furiously flicked it.
TAILS!
"Fuck..."
TAILS!
"Fuck."
TAILS!
"Fuck!"
TAILS!
"THIS ISN'T WORKING, IM JUST GETTING MORE WEAKNESS" I yelled, throwing my coin across the elevator and hitting some random shell girl in the corner, "oh shit, I thought there was only 7 of you."
"Oh right, I forgot Shelly was here," Gigi sighed and turned to her, "Sorry Shells"
"O-oh, it's fine, haha... here's your coin by the way..." Shelly chuckled, rubbing the back of her head where the coin hit her.
"Thanks." I muttered flicking my coin once more.
HEADS!
"Shelly, I don't know what you did to fix my luck but I love you."
"What..?"
"Hey-o pals!" Inside the elevator, an small hatch in the back opened up, revealing an rainbow dandelion looking guy with green overalls, everyone else seemed annoyed at him except Shelly. He looked over to me and smiled, "So you must be Chance! Mafioso said something about you--"
"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW FLOWER BOY BEFORE I CLOCK YOUR ASS!!" I immediately grabbed him by his collar and shook him violently, but for some reason he didn't seem that intimated, since he was still smiling.
"You won't, because you have like weakness 8 with 50 health, would you really take that... Chance? Heh, pun intended" He winked at me, I just scowled.
"Alrighty buckco, just tell me how I got here." I said, letting go of him reluctantly.
"Well if I'm going to be honest, we both don't know, he only got wind that you got here because I told our creator, which told our creator's creator, which told this builderman guy, which told all your friends, which then got to this Mafioso guy, which I'm assuming you don't like?"
"Well... Perchance..." I mumbled.
"Per.. Chance? Heh.."
I stared at him blankly before flipping my coin once more, heads. I looked back at him as he looked at me, his eyebrows slightly twitching as if he knew what I was trying to do, "Don't."
I pulled the trigger on my gun, nothing. "Aww dang it."
"Welp! Now that you've attempted murder! Wanna buy something from me??" He readjusted his overalls and motioned his hands over his items, some gumballs, an airhorn, and an speed candy.
"Dandy, this s[ ] is useless." Sprout said nonchalantly, I literally have eaten like 40 of those already."
"Ofcourse you have fat a[ ]." He chuckled, still grinning ear to ear-- more like petal to petal.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME?? CHANCE GIVE ME YOUR GUN." He said, slamming his hands on Dandy's shop.
"Yes sir."
"WELP TIME FOR ME TO TAKE MY LEAVE HAHAHA!!" Dandy said in an panic, "What do I normally Say, oh right, Saving your tapes I see, not to worry, I'll be back!" He said before pulling an lever in his shop and descending into the floor from whence he came.
"Werido." I shrugged, "Also why are you guys censored while I'm not?"
"Oh cause we're children mascots, we can't physically swear." Sprout shrugged, "It's not like we normally do anyways, seems you've rubbed off on us."
"Well," Rodger entered into the conversation, "I'd prefer you don't cuss around Toodles now."
"Toodles? That's the brat's-- I mean lovely child's name, great!" I chuckled loudly, looking away from Rodger's piercing gaze, I flicked my coin once more.
TAILS!
"I'm going to make this coin wish it never was created."
I swear I could see Gigi clutch her lucky coin nervously at that threat.
Hehe, shorter chapter 😉
