Even Roche was upon it, slumped in the stiff cafeteria chair as those funny apes they’d spotted around town clamored behind her, making their allegiance known.

Ashrbringer, the GEMS, and now Michi’s own ape network proved it could reach across their homes and touch upon their lives with impunity. The lives of each club member was like a raw and open wind exposed to the wind, unable to mend as the wound weeps angrily towards the relentless world. Like the feeling of roasting alive as she thrust herself into the engines of that first Giga Miseria, yet it wasn’t fading. It festered and writhed till the discomfort was all she knew. So Michi was aware of whatever she wanted to know and she had legions of minions to act on it? Yet another enemy having won the Magical Jackpot, and naturally she uses it to try and tear them down.

The water did nothing for her mood, and she remained slump, as lifeless a prop as the chair she sat upon.
