[ Yuri again! She finally managed to score a laptop from one of the NPCs, so she's actually sitting with it in her lap, in a folding chair, in what appears to be an infirmary, looking extremely confident. ]

As many of you already know, I'm rebelling against God. I'm starting to gather teammates now, but since most of you aren't in this world I've decided to start up multiple rebellions. If you're dead or have a problem with God, you can obviously offer yourself for the cause, but I'd like to focus now on rebelling against this community for now.

Don't worry, I don't want to shut it down or anything, but it does some pretty annoying things sometimes. If we start messing with it enough it'll start changing its ways won't it? Especially you science-types who are all content to document what it already does instead of see what you can do! [ She's got a smile on. Confident, a little bit like she's ready to start a panic. ]

So, who wants to see if we can provoke the community into doing something new? I'm taking early recruitment starting-- [ Pause. Wait for it. ] Now!

Well... Instead of thinkin' it's some kinda thing playing us in its game, ain't it more like it's a game itself? When you play tag, there's rules, but you don't call tag sentient, right?

There's rules in tag, but the rules don't change unless the people change them. If I act within the rules but tick it off, then I think it'll change the rules.

Ain't it probably more like one of those games where the whole point's to guess the rules? It's still just somethin' we're in for fun.

If it were a game we could beat it and it'd end!

It's one of those games that don't really have an end, like Truth or Dare or tag or King of The Hill.

Those end whenever you say that you want them to end. You can't just say "I want to stop" with the community, it'll follow you around.

It's like a pushy friend who won't leave you alone when you say yer fine! That's all!

I don't know anyone like that! [ Doesn't seem remotely bothered by this. ]

The point is it's still just a game. You had a little sister or brother or anything? They probably kept pushing you to play some game with 'em all the time.

A brother and two sisters. We played games all the time, but it's not like I wasn't willing.

But, I can accept that you think of it as a game! I mean, even if it was, then the rebellion would just be to break and mess with the rules~ It's like a game within a game!
