Possible Scenarios 01. A New Arrival: Hello, New Person! You seem to have found yourself on a sidewalk in the City of Sin with nothing but the clothes on your back and a stomach chruning feeling of being displaced. Thankfully, the streets are full of people - Watch out that you don't get mugged! 02. Demonic Presences: You were just minding your own business, weren't you? But that's always when bad things seem to happen, and the City of Sin isn't really that friendly. Whatever bar or street you're hanging out in suddenly go dim, filling the area with an unnerving feeling as the shadows on the walls jump out into reality. We suggest you phone a friend for help, or maybe try running? 03. Party Hard: You've been invited to a massive, elegant party at the Tower that spills out its doors in welcome, by someone who calls themselves the Emperor. Obviously, that's weird, but maybe you can get some free drinks and food out of it! This place might not be so bad. 04. Prominence: The City of Sin influences it's population on a weekly basis. Too bad you came right smack dab in the middle of a heavy Prominence. Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, or Pride. Choose your choice of sin and be wicked. 05. Trouble: Not everyone is sunshine and roses here. Some people are violent and cruel, raised in the sludge of a sinful city. And they like to pick on people they think can't fight back. Are you that person? Or are you the Hero who can't stand to watch? Worse yet, could you be the person doing the instigating? Villian. 06. Carnival: The City has carnivals or festivals now and then; you're lucky to catch one! With its open booths filled with cork gun games and funnel cakes, how can someone not have any fun! Go win your darling a stuffed animal, or meet someone new on the spinning cup ride. You might even see someone you know being talked into sitting in the Dunk Tank. 07. Wild Card: Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

Her picket fence failed a little, mostly with surprise.

Because helping someone is the right thing to do.

She'd tried to explain that to Abe once. How, even after learning what he really was, she'd still rescued him from the Giovanni. Oh, to be sure, she'd left him in a ditch, wounded and weak, with her blood trickling down his chin. But she'd saved his life anyway.

Because it was the right thing to do.

She wouldn't make the mistake of trying to explain that again, though. Faith in humanity was all she had, most days. "You look like you could use a friend," she said instead.

He probably did and somewhere deep inside of him Penny knew that. He exhaled and shook his head.

"I don't have very much luck with friends. I think you'd have it easier." She cared and people who cared made friends. It was one of the reason's he wasn't particularly worried about her. The number of people she knew, who'd look after her, she'd be fine.

"Nothing worth doing is ever easy," she said, feeling that somewhere out there, in the shimmering ether of the multiverse, her sister was laughing at her.

A lot.

She shrugged. "Anyway, he tried to kill me. He failed. I don't think the murder-moth monster--if he's still out there--is going to succeed."

It's not me he's trying to protect, is it? It's himself.

[hearingvoices]

Penny had to look out for himself first, no one else would but there was always that part of him that actually gave a fuck about other people.

He disliked that part of himself.

"Let's just hope you're right."

[diana_abel]

Diana gave him a thin smile. "I may not be smart," she said, "but I'm extremely stubborn. And when I make a promise, I keep it."

Nothing but sincerity radiated off of that statement.

If nothing else, Diana had her honor.

[hearingvoices]

"We'll see."

Which was his way of saying that he'd stick around long enough to see if she's right.
