Points at Luci and Magpie. Drops ENTER: A BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO FAKING YOUR DEATH

Listen. Gestures at their whole thing of putting up an act. Points at how it's "just the job" for Magpie. Points at how Luci simply Decided that's who she is now if she wants to live.

"I don't think I'm that guy" followed by the immediate implication that Yes You Are. You understand.

I was initially just going to say Magpie trying to manage the torment nexus that is the facility but. I think it works for whatever the fuck's going on with Luci too

Ok this part actually links to the album lore. It tells the story of Some Guy that decides to fake his death and live a new life as someone completely different, but his lies eventually catch up to him and he loses everything because of it

Stares directly at those two. You understand.

OUGH . MAN. GRISPS. yea this was the one i remembered hell yea fuck yea hell yea me when i 💥💥💥

AND THE. GOD. YEAH. YEAH... NODS.. yes yeah verily exactly. head in hands. Especially with the parallel of the two of them; changing implication and tone for each side of the coin but ultimately keeping the same heart, for lack of a better term..

especially struck by the [Please excuse our current appearance] snippet in which regard; because its something that can very much intently be a note on Magpie's initial presentation of a Hey Dont Worry About It, It Is What It Is over top of a (god this fucking sucks); but from Luci's angle it reads as a Point And Laugh These Idiots Have No Fucking Idea What They're Doing ^w^ (completely unaware that she is, in fact, one of These Idiots(tm) in a way she would never come to really understand.)

the back and forth, but it still very very intently rings clear for both of them; with a sense of foreboding they are both, with different levels of intent, completely ignoring.

head in hands.
