Freddy isn't Deady.

So... Yeah seems the dead nest who showed up was some guy named Glenn. Apparently a friend of Freddy's. Although seeing his response I'm guessing they were friends in the same way Oliver and I were friends. Which means that Freddy is still alive.

Also apparently he doesn't like being called Freddy and so I'm going to call him that exclusively from now on. I'm a people pleaser.

Also Cerise won't be typing for the next day or so. Her hands are damaged so I'll be talking for her. She can still use her fingers which means she's still useful, but she injured her hands and so she can't move them very dexterously without pain and so typing is currently beyond her. It's a fairly minor bit of damage and should be fine within a day or two.

I suppose since she can't tell you what happened I should.

She was buying more fuel for her flamethrower. She got jumped by some guy. I wasn't there at the time so couldn't help out. She managed to fight him off, but he was too close for her to use the flamethrower so she used her knife instead. She claims she cut him up real good, but he wasn't going down so she started to focus instead on getting distance. The man was fast, faster than her and so this proved difficult. If he had a weapon she would probably have died, but luckily the guy seemed content to try to kill her with his bare hands. Eventually she became desperate and ended up using the flamethrower despite his close proximity, she managed to set him aflame, but he continued to attack her as he burned and she held him off using the thrower part of her flamethrower which was quite hot after it's use and holding it to hold him off burned her hands quite a bit. Luckily he didn't last much longer and succumbed finally collapsing dead after a few minutes of being ignited. When she got back to me, her hands were red, severely burned, skin peeling and she was crying.

I honestly felt kind of bad for her. Helped tend to and bandage her hands and agreed to post for her for the next little bit though I refused to post on her blog so it will be inactive until she's ready to post for herself again.

Good as new.

So, I'm out of the... hospital? and feeling ready to kill some people again. Also seems like Frederick wasn't kidding about finding me yesterday. Unfortunately I was still stuck in bed, so didn't get the chance to kill him myself. Seems like Cerise did a good enough job on her own. Still a shame, also no sign of Hella so I still have that to worry about. Maybe I'll be lucky and she'll turn out to be the same amount of build up to anti-climax ratio as Frederick turned out to be.

As for what actually happened... I'm sure Cerise will talk about it. She'll undoubtedly want to gloat about it to you guys. She already spent a while gloating about it to me.

Feels like forever since I last posted.

So... Cerise isn't happy with my plan. Which obviously, but she raised some pretty good points about why it might not be the best plan. I mean yeah I don't really need her to be in great fighting shape. Again I don't really rely on her for combat, but... Admittedly it would be useful to keep her at a helpful level of combat ability at least until Frederick and Hella are taken care of.

So... Congratulations Cerise. Your reasonable arguments have swayed me. It totally has nothing to do with anything else that may have happened that if you put on your blog I swear to god I will skin you alive.

Update...

So, not much has been happening. We haven't had much free time. Just fight after fight and I've been putting my plan into action. Less and less have I been helping Cerise during fights and she's definitely noticing. Injuries are mounting and she's come close to death a couple of times. She's not a fighter. She might be someday with more practice, but right now. She wouldn't last long without me here and I'm making sure she knows it.

Of course she knows what I'm doing and has stubbornly refused to acknowledge that she needs my help. Now you might be wondering... If I need her I obviously can't just let her die and she has to know that so this isn't going to work, except there's a bit of an assumption there...

That assumption being that I need her. She's here for all the reasons she said and because companionship is fun. None of those are really necessities though. If she died I'd find some other loser who managed to survive this long and force them to be friends with me. I just want a friend to talk to and help alleviate my boredom. There's no specifics on who that is. Besides it's not like she's the only person who knows how to throw a grenade weapon.

So, yes she's expendable and if she doesn't acknowledge that she needs my help she won't get it and eventually she'll die. I've also told her that if she's good and doesn't betray me I won't even kill her when the time comes. I'll let her live. Which is probably her best chance of getting out of this alive.

So some of you may have learned

I've found me an ally for now. Cerise who previously helped us out with The Scarecrow and Legion is apparently in this tournament too. She tried to kill me which is just adorable really. I suggested we help each other out again. I'm not gonna go into too much detail since she already did...
Here

She also outlined her plan to kill me there too, which... Since as you can see I found her blog I know about. Generally not a great idea to write things like that somewhere public.

Oh also while I was getting that link I found a comment from someone calling themselves Frederick... Which god that is just the worst name.

I followed his comment to his blog and found that he's a nest and wants to kill me... Not a surprise I guess, he also has a friend who also wants me dead. She seems interesting. Can't wait to run into both of them.

I feel like I should say a little something here...

We have a lot of fun you and I. We make jokes, I do stupid things that often get me and others hurt, but I should clear something up...

People may have the impression that I'm not very smart. Which in a way is true.

I do often make mistakes and don't really think clearly, but... That's because I'm impulsive and possibly have slight delusions of grandeur... These are to account for my occasionally boneheaded actions. I don't tend to think things through, but that doesn't mean I don't think.

I made the offer of friendship to Cerise, for all the reasons she stated, but I didn't do it without thinking. I took the first chance I had to rifle through her stuff, make sure she wasn't lying about her supplies situation and also did what I could to find out if she had a blog I could use to keep tabs on her.

Even before reading the blog I also figured she'd want to betray me before the tournament logically forced us to turn on each other, because that's just common sense, which is also why I have a secondary plan... A plan to make sure that she needs me for as long as possible.

Now... Some of you are probably wondering... This entire post could be construed as me telling Cerise that it was stupid of her to put her plans on her blog where I could potentially read them, but now I'm doing the exact same thing and I have no doubt that Frederick probably knows of my blog and so even if Cerise doesn't know about it, he'll probably tell her just to screw me over... Well here's the deal...

My plan doesn't matter if she knows or not and also Frederick... I'm not giving you the satisfaction of telling her about this. I'm going to be showing it to her as soon as it goes up.

Anyway... Intrigue and backstabbings to plan for and murder to be done. Oh... Right... Since Frederick is a nest I'll have to buy myself some incendiary with the points I have. Not sure how to deal with Freddy's friend though... Ah well I'm sure I'll figure something out. 

I missed this...

I missed this so much... I have killed so many people since I've got here. Just find someone and kill them and I get rewarded for doing so. I haven't even spent most of the points I've gotten. Just bought some food and stuff when I was hungry.

The vast majority of people I've run into have been normal humans. Most of them not even fighters. The few fighters or servants I have run into still didn't give me much problems. Even those who can actually fight can't land a hit on me since I still have The Children's Defense Mechanism and it's not widely enough known for most people to figure out how to counter.

I feel like a kid in a candy store... and the candy is the destruction of innocent lives.

Actually I don't understand that metaphor even without the intentionally stupid inclusion I added.

Are we supposed to assume it's just the range of choices? Cause I mean yeah, but it still costs money? Or are we supposed to assume the kid is alone in the store and can just take as much candy as they want?

Either way I don't care. The point is I'm really happy here... Honestly it's the happiest I've been since my neighbourhood was destroyed.

I kind of don't want to leave... Though I guess that won't last... I'll have killed everyone else eventually.

Maybe when I go back...

Hmm...

I'll think more about that later... Let's go kill people!

Well... That was interesting.

So, I haven't been talking, cause we've been super busy just resetting things up at the new headquarters for The Children of Nothing. Plus nothing of interest has been happening. Just boring work stuff about setting things up figuring out sources of income and stuff... Kind of wishing we had 2 here, according to Facet he was really good at getting The Children lots of income.

Anyway that's not what's important. I appear to have ended up in a very strange place where a bat told me I should kill a bunch of other people to get home. Well it didn't specify that I needed to kill anyone, but you know, it's me. If the option to kill is there, I'll probably take it.

I've been told not to kill the people with the masks with suits on them... Er card suits... Like diamonds, clubs, etc... Not like three piece or business... Anyway... Normally I'd ignore such an order, but I get the feeling that wouldn't be a great idea this time.

Anyway as annoying as it is to be suddenly dragged into some death tournament against my will... there is one consolation to this... That being the whole death tournament part.

Time to go kill some random people. It's been so long since I've been able to really just let loose and kill people without consequence.

It almost feels like stepping back into my old life before all this craziness... I hope it doesn't end too quickly...

Oh... Um I'm sure Sandy and Facet will be able to handle things fine in my absence of course...

Now lets go find me someone to kill!
