-As Oliver takes a hold of the flag that Cuddles owns, time resumes-
???: So the twitchiest of you acts yet again...very well...have fun getting out of THIS disaster alive then.
-Before the tentacle-headed man fully pops out of existence, Six sees "X-02" written on the chest-
-...Although that's not the most important concern, considering the skies have darkened in game and all the paintballers are beginning to start acting...weird-
We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)Oliver: -to Albert- Capturing this fucking flag!
-Oliver jumps onto a nearby wall and Stims, accelerating to maximum overspeed and shooting back towards home base like a bullet made of steel-
Six: X-02... where the hell have I seen that before...
We need to fall back!
-Starts moving back towards home base-

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."—Herbert looks around at the paintballers, and he can feel his instincts tell him to get the fuck outta dodge right now. And he follows those instincts as he sprints back to home base—

'If you fall seven times, stand up eight.' The cry of the Undead.-Well, you can see about 60% of the paintballers, clearly ordinary bots, melt and then reform into black oily versions of themselves as they shoot at you all as you begin to retreat...with what seems to be REAL gunpowder ammunition instead of the radical paintball guns they had before. A timer pops up, noting you have 3 minutes to bring the flag back to home base-
-Have fun
-
-Btw, those who have internet capabilities in their heads, i.e. everyone, a message suddenly pops up in the corner of their eye-
We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)-Oliver reads the message as best he can as he dodges gunfire, zips between walls, and slides under obstacles you'd have to crouch under-
-Of course, while he's crossed a lot of ground using Stim, the effects have already worn off, and there's a while for him to go yet-
-Six, in the meanwhile, decides to see if these guys consider paint ammo a threat, and fires a few warning shots at one of the actual gunners-
-While reading the message-

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."-All but one of the mutated paintballers seemingly melt down into the ground and start zipping along the ground closer to you, to avoid the chest blast as well as the paintball shots being fired from Six's gun. The one who didn't reacts violently to the paint touching his own form, making his arm practically disappear-
-The message consists of a simple choice-
One time offer
You want or not?
Y/N

We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)Six: ...what the hell, okay, these guys might actually fall apart when we hit them!
-Keeps falling back while keeping an eye out for whatever might pop up-
-Meanwhile, Oliver simply spams "Y" into the open chatbox as fast as his processor can currently manage-
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."-All the people who hit Y can suddenly see the world in a far greater cornucopia of coloration, much like before, with everyone around them looking either like cutesified versions of themselves or like squid-like kids with guns. They also feel incredibly powerful, like the gun shots being fired at them mean nothing, and man, the world is soooooooooo tubular radical dude, man look at these rad kicks and the rollerblades you're on, you just want to paint the world every color possible!-
-...The one girl who hit N can see her friends appear now to be really high but also glowing, with a few of the real bullets being fired at them bouncing off like they're nothing-
-...Might be a good idea to, you know, lead them. Before they start licking the dirt around them-
We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)-Oliver just kind of forgets that he's supposed to capture a flag and starts using his Devotion to spray paint everywhere he can on a leisurely stroll-
-while Six blinks for a moment, confused as to what just happened, before deciding it probably didn't matter anyways and focusing entirely on shooting down every enemy he can see, to paint them red-
-...With paint-

Cuddles: ~hands Oliver the flag, still perplexed~
