VLDR: Convention of the Minds - WORST ENDING

[Hawkwing425]

I'm going to be honest. I think this is going to get several of us, if not more, killed. I don't want to leave the majority of people without a doctor. That's why I'm saying I'll go with the majority.

[Cyantic]

No, but it's more physical. We know who's in or out for sure. And we don't have to wait for all twelve.

And yeah, it's not the best choice. But I'd rather die fighting than picked off one by fucking one in this nightmare. If the coalition won't work, then... Aux Armes. We're dead anyway if we don't get this coalition up. If even six people make it out of everyone here... that's better then we could expect staying here.

[Hawkwing425]

Also, how would we get Abner through this? He shouldn't be walking on his splint.

[yauaustin202]

Hah. Give the man a gun then.
Two tokens gets you a gun, and you have one correct, doc?

[Cyantic]

Not a choice. He's got to walk - we'll take care of him best we can. I won't leave him behind.

[Phinerxen]

There's a pretty big difference by my view with this plan that let's me agree to it. Small, yet quite notable for me.

[yauaustin202]

Alright then, doctor, i offer myself up to you, whichever you end up choosing, I'll follow.
I may have given up on my dreams, but perhaps yours can be fulfilled if your hands are not stained.

[Cyantic]

It's a revolutionary time. What's more of an American Way then dying in defiance of tyrants?

[Hawkwing425]

His knee is fractured. He should not be walking on that. It's only going to damage him more. Also, it'll hurt. A lot.

No, I think it's three tokens for a gun with three bullets, Terrence.

[Knockoff]

Honestly, I’m not sure I’d be able to escape that way with the splint.

I can understand why Joan would support it, I think. It’s a less conventionally cowardly choice.

[Cyantic]

We can't stretcher him. We can find him good care out there, Doc. I promise I won't leave him behind. I'll fucking carry him to the end if I have too.

[Hawkwing425]

No, we can't use a stretcher, nor do I see any crutches around. That's... that's what makes this hard. If we can't all agree to the coalition, and we choose to make a break for it, he's going to need assistance to stay off his injured leg.

[yauaustin202]

Same here tom. I suppose we're both soldiers willing to die on the frontlines eh.
I can only pray this somehow turns out alright.

(Roamings over and I didn't sleep so imma just go and die cya guys)

[Cyantic]

I'll do it, then. We'll make it through.


I suppose we are, old man. It's been good knowing you.

[Knockoff]

I think I’d just be deadweight, Tom.

I know I was the first to express my support, but this probably just gets us all killed. I admire everyone’s conviction, but I don’t think this method will work. For one, Johnson and the rest know about it now. Second, they’ll all probably better armed and equipped than us. It’s heroic and brave, but at the moment, I don’t have much reason to believe it’ll work.

Of course. That's obvious, even an old coot like me figured that out and said it out loud.
But if this is the thing that brings us together to work towards a common goal, then let there be light. And we shall march on.

After all, better this than slowly being forced to kill each other.

[Cyantic]

If we stay here, we all get picked off one by one.

Tom has an angry glint in his eyes.

We burn this entire damn thing to the ground if we can't just leave. They want fucking research or whatever they're getting out of this? We fuck it up. We're not going to kill ourselves, we're going to fuck this all up for them. We stage a revolt, and even if we're not successful, then no one could doubt us. We won't let ourselves get fucked over again and again. You're not deadweight, you've stronger than you think, and I'll carry you if I have too.

Revolution is the only thing we have left. They'll fucking rue the day they brought Tom Grant into this fucking facility, that's for damn sure!

[Hawkwing425]

"Give me liberty or give me death" is what I was expecting you to say, Tom. You're really going full revolutionary here.

[Cyantic]

Can you blame me? Either we leave before the third, or I die.

Plus, fuck these guys. They stole my fucking money.

[Hawkwing425]

...well, what's really to say? If that's what the group agrees on, that's what the group agrees on, and I respect democracy. I'm sticking with the group's decision, and it sounds like Terrence is doing the same by following me.

So? Anyone have anything to say about it?

[Knockoff]

...I’m sorry, but I do not believe I can choose the same option as the rest of you. Though it’s cowardly of me, I wish to live and I do not believe there is any legitimate possibility of escape. It’s heartening to hear you say that, but your opinion of me is too high, Tom.

There is something I should tell you if you wish to go through with it.

[Hawkwing425]

I understand, and don't hold it against you, Abner.

[Cyantic]

If you're staying, Abner, we can't come back for you. Even if we make it, you're fucked.

[Knockoff]

Yes, I know. If you make it out, I won’t hold it against you.

[Cyantic]

... Abner. Please just come with. You're going to die if you stay here. If you come with us...
