I reappeared to a VERY enthusiastic Aviva and Oliver on the edge of the world just BUZZING with creativity and life! I was thrilled to hear about the forthcoming "Illicit Tours" event and that they'd successfully kidnapped a vSider and tested out some of the fun tactics we've been training for in host camp lately.

Suddenly, Oliver went MAD with power! Generating bots and having them all commit suicide over the edge of the world. I couldn't let him do such an inhuman and despicable act! The power was too much for him to handle - so I stepped in.

He resisted violently at first, confronting me, his words all in caps. I attempted to calm him with empathy, let him know I was "carved of the same mold, born under the same star." He just sulked and walked closer to the edge.

"OLIVER, NO!!!" I yelled as he whirled around on the very corner of the ledge just before falling to his infinite plunge into the great abyss.
"YOU DON'T THINK I DON'T KNOW ABOUT PIEDRO??!!" he shrieked, tears of pure mercury streaming down his face.

As I came clean about Piedro, he had no choice but to fall to his knees and weep with utter betrayal and woe. I rushed to console him and that's when he did it... he leapt to his flailing, flapping, wailing tumble into the great blue-grey ether.

ArtdaisyJ showed up, FINALLY, after much ado. Showed her around a bit and introduced her to the lovely staff. Built the tower of pure happiness and watched it all crumble to the ground, enjoying every tender moment.
