CHAPTER 69: Nice

(Sorry for being late, minor computer problems. Don't worry, another chapter should be published on the normal day.)

"Author-sama? What did you do?

"Go feral for an hour?"

"We just did a Jim story, why did you do another?"

"Ah, but I didn't! I did an Isaac story!"

"That doesn't make me any less disappointed in you."

"I know, but you keep getting to do the Fun/Cursed/Unable to be read chapters and I wanted to do one."

"That's fair. And to be honest I really like the backstory it set up for that whole set of chapters."

"Would you believe me if I said that wasn't my original intent? Because I had wanted to write something cursed and I just made it wholesome."

"That doesn't surprise me, but I'm back to being disappointed in you. To write the cursed, you must become the cursed. If you wonder which thing to write, take the worse one."

"Cannibalism."

"Cannibalism."

"Insert evil laughter here! Wait, does that mean that I have permission to write cannibalism? Because I had been avoiding it."

"Depends. Normally? No. Absolutely not. Funny, one off serious/not serious joke? Sure why not."

"Mmmmm, I want to say something here… Screw it, Cannibalistic Dollar General Cult here I come!"

"MMMMMM"

"What? You were talking about wanting different Void religions. And Void plus eating things is a given!"

"So I did. Not exactly what I meant but the more I think about it, the more it sounds like a good idea. I need more sleep. Or caffeine. Whichever is closest. Oh look! Soda!"

"I will say it again, Insert evil laughter here. That honestly just explains our writing to a tee. Well, other than the evil cult on the fringes of society, did either of us ever come up with religion lore? I had that vague attempt to make the Owners a religion."

"I think that's the best we have right now. We could do an 'evolved form' religion. Or just an apathetic religion where they just don't care."

"... Did you ever watch that Game Theory about the game Kanye West 3030?"

"I have not, yet."

"Tldr, It was a front for a cult that no one's sure actually existed or was created for an ARG. It's called Ascensionism, and the whole thing is about ascending your mortal flesh or something. What if it was a real thing and made of Dollar General Employees who wanted to gather humans to turn into Void creatures. Or maybe I just created my Cannibalistic Dollar General Cult... I scare myself sometimes."

"And I don't want to touch any of that right now. You don't scare me, but you are concerning."

"Yeeeaaahhh… What chapter are we on?"

"69."

"Nice."
