YARD CUNO BEFRIEND WC - 1208

G 0 START 1 input 0->1 80 Empathy: It's not Cuno. It's Cunoesse. 1->80 88 Cuno: Variable["yard.cuno_befriend_failed_once"] 1->88 136 Empathy: You were too pushy last time. Think this through, try to really *understand* the psychological bond Cuno has with Cunoesse. 1->136 2 Cuno: "You hear that, C? Porko wants to talk about how he can't hack this shit. Porko wants to move in with Cuno!" 181 Cunoesse: "Don't let him move in with us, Cuno." 2->181 3 Cuno: "Yo, C?" He pops his head up. "Did Cuno not *tell* you?! Cuno told you -- CUNO TALKS TO WHOEVER HE WANTS." 20 Cuno: "Talk, pig. Cuno's got it under control." He hunches down again. 3->20 4 Composure: He usually looks you straight in the eye. A little something just crumbled there. 147 Savoir Faire: Don't move your head. Just from the corner of your eye -- look at her. 4->147 5 Reaction Speed: Someone left the door open? It was him. By accident or... 209 Cuno: Variable["yard.cuno_reactions_speed_someone_left_door_open"] 5->209 6 Cuno: Variable["yard.eternite_hub_reached"] 7 Variable["yard.eternite_hub_reached"] 6->7 8 !(Variable["yard.eternite_hub_reached"]) 6->8 196 Cuno: "And, shit, you can even fuck back in Cuno's kingdom! Cuno saw you sniffin' around that fuckin' pile of eternite. It's a secret door, okay?! Just pull it off -- and fuck back in there." He concludes the invitation with a benevolent nod. 7->196 17 Cuno: "And, shit, you can even fuck back in Cuno's kingdom! That fuckin' pile of eternite," he points to the back of the yard, "it's a secret door, okay?! Just pull it off and you can fuck into Cuno's shack." He concludes the invitation with a benevolent nod. 8->17 9 You: "What's up with her? She's terrifying... Crazy scary." 143 Cuno: "Crazy?" he whispers tensely. "You don't know the half of it. She's not crazy, she's insane. Dangerous. She smoked a man. She's done people in, probably even pigs..." 9->143 10 Shivers: There's something cold in the air. Like water lapping against cold stones. Or dripping. In a hallway nearby. Three years ago. There were shoes in the corner... 112 Logic: A cop would be too large for her to overpower. But a determined child of her size can still kill the vulnerable. The elderly. The homeless. Or other... other children. 10->112 11 Cuno: The kid is just that now -- a kid. 278 Jump to: [Regarding Cunoesse] 11->278 12 You: "Whoa..." 115 Cuno: "Yeah." He watches it sink in. 12->115 13 Cuno: "Yeah that's the place. She was just balled up near the closet. Psycho-style." 58 You: "Why was she dripping wet?" 13->58 14 You: (Return to the conversation.) "You said she got in? How?" 280 Cuno: "I don't know..." He looks at you suspiciously as you come out of your thoughts. "Someone left the door open. Cuno comes home, she's sleeping under the desk, under a pile of clothes. Like a dog." 14->280 15 Cuno: "Cuno's got this shit under control." He spits through the gap in his front teeth. 59 You: "She needs professional help. You can't do this alone." 15->59 61 You: "About that shooting... I didn't mean to... It was only a warning shot." 15->61 105 You: "You need backup. I'm here for you." 15->105 132 You: "Okay, kid." 15->132 16 Cuno: "Cuno's gonna get you hooked on illegal narcotics, if you run a little errand for the Cuno -- get you *hooked*, pig. Get his hook in you. Then Cuno gonna get you hookin' for more. Cash in big-style. Pig hooker." 73 Cuno: Variable["TASK.buy_faln_pants_from_cuno"] 16->73 223 Perception (Sight): He means the shack to the right of the greenhouse, with snow melting on the roof. 17->223 18 Conceptualization: Explain himself? As if... explaining some kind of *work*? Some kind of avant-garde work way ahead of its time? 182 Cuno: Variable["yard.cuno_concept_passive"] 18->182 19 You: I'm intrigued. 216 Conceptualization: You *must* get to the bottom of this, one of these days. Sadly, it's unlikely to happen today. 19->216 47 Empathy: You did it. They're separated. He's even turned his back to her so she can't read his lips. 20->47 21 You: "What if she has, Cuno? That would explain things..." 277 Cuno: "Fuckin' yeah. Cuno knows you don't want to face this right now. This dark shit. Cuno faces this shit every day -- makes Cuno's skin crawl." 21->277 22 Cuno: "She's probably killed a pig too. I mean, I'm pretty sure she has." 23 You: "C'mon. She hasn't killed police officers." 22->23 99 You: "Okay. How many cops has she killed then?" 22->99 113 Cuno: "I knew you pigs were too naive for this shit. Good thing Cuno's got her under control. Cuno keeps her calm." He feels eyes on the back of his head -- and stops. 23->113 24 Jump to: [Regarding Cunoesse] 246 Regarding Cunoesse 24->246 25 Jump to: [Regarding Cunoesse] 25->246 26 You: "Understood, Cuno." 39 Cuno: "Alright." He wipes the sweat off his brow. "Now we can do *business*." 26->39 27 Cuno: "Get your snout out of Cuno's ass!" He waves you off. "Cuno knows how hard Cuno pushes it. Cuno pushes it hard-level..." 28 Cuno: "You should give up, popo. Or the Cunn will keep fucking it out of you." 27->28 45 Cunoesse: "Are you okay, Cuno?" She looks worried. The *Cunn* has her confused. 28->45 29 Cunoesse: "Take the pain, fucko! Take the bad!" The child is not grinning -- it looks more like a wolf bearing its teeth. 229 Empathy: Smelling weakness. She loves it. 29->229 30 Empathy: Also, Cuno hasn't stopped talking to you. Even enjoys it from time to time. When you talk to the other one it's like talking to a cornered animal. She only hisses. Also, Cuno hasn't stopped talking to you. Even enjoys it from time to time. When you talk to the other one it's like talking to a cornered animal. She only hisses and says *murder* was the case that they gave her. Also, Cuno hasn't stopped talking to you. Even enjoys it from time to time. When you talk to the other one it's like talking to a cornered animal. She only hisses and says something about *necks*. 243 Cuno: Variable["yard.cunoesse_reaction_speed_shes_a_girl"] 30->243 31 Shivers: A chill comes over you. The wind from the Boulevard South, lashing you -- for trying to separate them. For trying to take the street out of Cuno. 289 Jump to: [CUNO MAIN HUB] 31->289 32 Encyclopedia: Sounds *boreal*, like something from the tundra- and taiga- covered Katla isola. Far, far away from here -- as far as possible, really. 254 Cuno: Variable["yard.cuno_encyclo_lesser_suruese_boreal"] 32->254 33 suru_ency 48 You: Do they have red-haired people there? 33->48 49 You: This isn't important right now. 33->49 187 You: "Cuno, could she be Suruese?" 33->187 34 Cuno: "She used to say it all the time: näkk this, fisher-people that. Now she only says it when she's on the lightning. Or when guns go off." 129 You: "What the hell is a *näkk*?" 34->129 35 Authority: Fear of the truth. 98 Jump to: [Regarding Cunoesse] 35->98 36 Jump to: [Regarding Cunoesse] 36->246 37 Cuno: "Yeah, she was just there." He points at the apartment building behind the fence. 57 Cunoesse: "What was that, Cuno?" The little one twists her neck, looking at the building. 37->57 38 You: "You don't know her name?" 149 Cuno: "No one knows her name. Cuno calls her C." 38->149 269 Endurance: He's breathing heavily. That took something out of him. 39->269 40 Cuno: "Yeah, what do you want? Cuno can hook you up with --" he starts, no longer whispering. 102 Cunoesse: "Don't hook him up with shit, Cuno!" 40->102 41 Jump to: [CUNO MAIN HUB] 6030438 JUMP OUT to YARD / CUNO 41->6030438 42 Reaction Speed: Like the private radio stations Noid mentioned? 135 Rhetoric: He doesn't want to think about it. It isn't just another boast. 42->135 43 Empathy: What's going on? He's an ungovernable youth on your crime scene, throwing around incendiary language, trying to push your buttons. 124 Pain Threshold: Like you don't have enough on your plate! You feel a sudden surge of self-pity coming on... 43->124 44 Cunoesse: "Nooooo..." The evil shit behind the fence hacks like she's coughing up a furball. 152 Cunoesse: "You told him about it and now he knows you're lame!" 44->152 198 Empathy: That went wrong. He took it as a compliment. Then he had a minor seizure. 45->198 46 Cunoesse: "Fuck you *f****ts* whispering about?!" 64 Rhetoric: She puts extra stress onto that word. Expecting it will make you uncomfortable. 46->64 200 Savoir Faire: Fuck, she can read lips? You should cup your mouth. 47->200 111 Encyclopedia: You mean evil little red-haired people like her? Yes, they do -- the Suruese have that ginger gene. 48->111 144 Encyclopedia: Sure, interesting things aren't important. Only your cop thing is. 49->144 50 Cuno: "Yeah, I saw you get the *näkk* treatment... Dark shit, huh?" 145 You: "The näkk-treatment?" 50->145 51 Cuno: "It's none of our business. That's what a *näkk* is. Cuno keeps his nose to himself -- doesn't go poking around in *näkk* shit. Cuno's wise that way." 232 Drama: She regresses and pretends she's a mythological creature when she's under too much stress. 51->232 52 Encyclopedia: Four-eighty-eight? The criminal code doesn't go higher than 190. 52->22 53 Cunoesse: Though her friend spoke too low for her to hear, Cunoesse is not smiling anymore. 53->278 54 Cuno: "Yeah, she would've liked to fuck him up. But she didn't. Cuno wasn't around. And C was with Cuno." 160 You: "Where were you?" 54->160 55 Cuno: "Yeah, she's psycho." He leans in even closer. "None of that kiddy-psycho, cat-burning shit -- she does the real deal." 55->12 56 You: "What's the real deal?" 55->56 191 You: "Let's leave it at that." 55->191 96 Cuno: "Snuff radio shit... Believe me, pig, you don't wanna know." 56->96 207 Cuno: "She was in the hallway, dripping wet." Cuno flinches, then lowers his voice even more. "By the fucking shoe rack. In the dark." 57->207 116 Cuno: "Cuno's got no fucking idea. Her hair was all wet. I think she pissed on the floor too. She was there for three days -- in the corner. Every time Cuno went out." 58->116 133 Cuno: "Listen! Listen!" He points to his eyes, then yours. "C is Cuno's go-to, Cuno's protecting her. You fuck with C, you fuck with Cuno. You threaten her, you threaten to take her away..." "Listen! Listen!" He points to his eyes, then yours. "C is Cuno's go to; Cuno's protecting her. You fuck with C, you fuck with Cuno. You threaten her, you wave your gun around her *one more time*. Try to take her away..." 59->133 60 Cuno: "Cuno flexes for hobos. Cuno sees you're in need." He spreads his hands like a baker presenting the goods. A smile spreads across his flushed face. 76 Jump to: [CUNO MAIN HUB] 60->76 61->133 62 You: No. I'm not interested. I don't wanna *art*. 217 Conceptualization: Stop denying it. You want art all over you. You want to smear yourself in art, been dying to ever since you got up... 62->217 63 Cuno: "Fuck you whispering about?" he whispers back. 154 Empathy: He's whispering too. He's going with it. But watch what happens... 63->154 199 Cuno: "If Cuno wants to whisper, he's gonna fucking whisper, okay?!" He turns back to you and hunkers down: "Let's *whisper*, pig!" 64->199 65 Cuno: "It's okay!" He straightens his back and turns to Cunoesse. "The pig's trying to pit us against each other. Not gonna let him do that." 128 Physical Instrument: Idiot! You bungled it up. 65->128 66 Cuno: "Crazy people? The fucking *näkkies*? I don't know..." 67 Encyclopedia: It's Suruese. The Suru are an indigenous ethnic minority in the social democratic powerhouse Vaasa, on the tundra and taiga covered isola of Katla. Far, far away from here -- as far as possible, really. 66->67 251 Cuno: Variable["yard.cuno_encyclo_suruese"] 67->251 68 Jump to: [Regarding Cunoesse] 68->246 69 Cuno: Variable["yard.cuno_endurannce_talks_murderhangover"] 70 Variable["yard.cuno_endurannce_talks_murderhangover"] 69->70 71 !(Variable["yard.cuno_endurannce_talks_murderhangover"]) 69->71 212 You: I don't want to know this. 70->212 263 You: Murder hangover? From when she... 70->263 161 You: "You said she got in? How?" 71->161 72 Cuno: "Remember when you tried to get Cuno to hook you up? We can get *on* that now, if you run a little errand for the Cuno. Me and you. Cuno's gonna hook you up with *illegal narcotics*." 72->73 74 Variable["TASK.buy_faln_pants_from_cuno"] 73->74 75 !(Variable["TASK.buy_faln_pants_from_cuno"]) 73->75 103 Cuno: "See, it's tension and release with Cuno. Now we releasin'." He pulls on his tracksuit trousers. "The pant buying shit. That's on now too. Ninety-percent discount for Cuno's pig. Cuno can flex." 74->103 286 Cuno: Variable["XP.find_cunos_shack"] 75->286 76->6030438 77 Cuno: Variable["apt.hallway_boots_orb_clicked"] 78 Variable["apt.hallway_boots_orb_clicked"] 77->78 79 !(Variable["apt.hallway_boots_orb_clicked"]) 77->79 279 Visual Calculus: A shoe cupboard just off to the right? Have you been to this place? 78->279 79->58 272 empathy_success 80->272 81 You: "What do you mean, she smoked someone?" 233 Cuno: "Cuno means she killed someone. That's right, C's a killer." He stares at you intently. "Like, actually a killer." 81->233 82 Empathy: Cunoesse is by far the worst of the two. Cuno has no problem being near you, but the other hides behind the fence, afraid for her life, like she's *done* something. Something very bad. 171 Cuno: Variable["yard.cuno_punchhub_reached"] 82->171 83 Empathy: She understands what you're trying to do. 83->3 84 You: "How are you dealing with all of this?" (Conclude.) 163 Cuno: "How's Cuno *dealing*? Cuno's dealing just fine -- he doesn't need you fucking with any of it. C doesn't either." "How's Cuno *dealing* with this? Cuno's dealing with it just fine -- he doesn't need you fucking with this, waving your gun, mad dog shit... Cuno remembers what you did there." 84->163 85 Empathy: Some things are too awful to dwell on. The *näkkies* and *runkkaris*... might be some kind of defence mechanism. 276 Jump to: [Regarding Cunoesse] 85->276 86 You: (Act on it, try and separate them.) "Cuno! Psst..." 86->63 87 You: "You said she's... insane?" 87->55 89 Variable["yard.cuno_befriend_failed_once"] 88->89 90 !(Variable["yard.cuno_befriend_failed_once"]) 88->90 89->43 122 Empathy: He's on your crime scene, bossing you around. And he's been here for some time, too -- this is where he *hangs out*. You have to get more out of him. He could be useful. 90->122 91 Cuno: "Ease off, C. Cuno always takes the bullet over the hammer." He nods, big-boy style, incredibly proud of himself. 228 Rhetoric: He'd rather die than work with the justice system. 91->228 92 Empathy: Wrong move. But he's whispering still. You haven't lost him, just don't mess up again, or you will. There are no guarantees here. 92->9 142 You: "Cuno, listen to me -- she's trying to *control* you. We gotta get you outta here." 92->142 93 Cuno: "Suruese, like that Man-From-Hjelmdall shit?" The kid lights up. "She could be... She could be that Hjelmdall shit." 188 Encyclopedia: Revachol does have a small Suruese community. Or she climbed into a yakberry crate and was shipped over accidentally. 93->188 94 Drama: He's meant everything he said before; but right now he not only means it -- he is sincere. 94->21 130 You: "Really? Isn't she too small to overpower someone? 94->130 146 You: "You serious about this killing business?" 94->146 95 Cuno: Cuno falls silent. He does not look at you when he replies... 175 Cuno: "Cuno, uh... that's.... that's what Cuno is starting to think. Yeah." 95->175 240 Cuno: Variable["church.noid_said_snuff_radio"] 96->240 97 Cuno: "Cos' she fucking looks like Cuno." 97->38 98->246 159 Cuno: "Forget Cuno said that. Cuno was just shitting. Cuno was just running his mouth. Cuno's stupid like that." He feels eyes on the back of his head -- and stops. 99->159 100 Cunoesse: The creature peers at you both from over the fence. There is something searching in her eyes. 259 Half Light: Fear. 100->259 101 Cuno: "I am going to *kill* you. I'll run when you put the cuffs on her, sneak up on you later and fuck you up. You understand?" The boy looks you in the eye, black pupils trying to focus… 134 Half Light: He may not be able to do it, but he will try. Right now he believes he will. 101->134 164 Cuno: "C, relax, he respects the Cuno. Cuno made him respect the Cuno. You respect the Cuno..." He turns back to you. "You get all kinds of shit!" 102->164 283 Cuno: Variable["XP.find_cunos_shack"] 103->283 104 Cuno: "That's right. Cuno's a candy store for pigs now. Get ready to be rewarded," he concludes, spreading his hands like a baker presenting a selection of freshly baked pastries. 104->41 105->133 106 You: "Cuno, listen. I know this *boundary-pushing* thing is new to you, but it's old news for us grown-ups." 106->27 107 Cunoesse: "Cuno, they've almost made you a snitch now..." 107->91 108 Empathy: Normal is not what we got here. You've got to work with what you have for now. 140 Jump to: [CUNO MAIN HUB] 108->140 109 Empathy: This is it, you've got him. But be careful -- you can still fuck this up. Don't make Cuno look bad in this. 275 Untitled hub 109->275 110 You: "Phew, am I glad she's out of our hair. She's fucked up." 155 Cuno: "She's not fucked up!" He raises his voice, but then lowers it again. "Everyone's fucked up. Stop judging shit." 110->155 111->49 111->187 112->100 113->10 114 Cuno: "Look, Cuno's gonna put you at ease. We didn't do it." 261 Drama: He speaks the truth, my liege. 114->261 115->56 115->191 117 Cuno: Variable["yard.cuno_did_killed_a_kid_branch_in_befriend_cuno_wc"] 116->117 118 Variable["yard.cuno_did_killed_a_kid_branch_in_befriend_cuno_wc"] 117->118 119 !(Variable["yard.cuno_did_killed_a_kid_branch_in_befriend_cuno_wc"]) 117->119 120 Endurance: You know this. The body goes into a kind of revulsion shock. Murder hangover. That's what it could've been. 118->120 119->161 120->69 121 Empathy: She won. 165 You: [Leave.] 121->165 197 Untitled hub 122->197 123 You: "Is she your sister?" 206 Cuno: "Fuck no, she's not my sister. She's just a stray who got in. Like a mad dog or some shit." 123->206 124->197 125 Cuno: "The city's not fucking lame, *you* are lame! Cuno's tired of defending Rage City from..." He waves his hands in the air. "Just fuck off, alright." 153 Cuno: "And fuck you too," he adds, turning to you. "Putting Cuno on the spot like that. Cuno doesn't need to fucking *explain* his shit, Cuno's KING, he rules here -- fuck did you want?" 125->153 126 Jump to: [CUNO MAIN HUB] 126->6030438 127 Jump to: [empathy_success] 127->272 273 Empathy: That's it. You let him off the line, that was a *bad*, manipulative thing to say. You should understand: I got you this far, I couldn't get you all the way. 128->273 258 Cuno: "Her people? She's one of them? Then she hates them. Then everyone's a *näkk* and she's trapped? Look..." 129->258 190 Cuno: "Are you getting this? You think I'm fucking telling you a joke here? How hard do you think it is to kill a fat-ass?" He pokes you in the gut. "Sweet talk 'em, then knife 'em." 130->190 131 You: "That hallway there, with the janitor's closet?" (Point.) 131->13 194 Cuno: "No it's not okay." He points to his eyes, then yours. "C is Cuno's go-to, Cuno's protecting her. You fuck with C, you fuck with Cuno. You threaten her, you threaten to take her away..." "Listen! Listen!" He points to his eyes, then yours. "C is Cuno's go to; Cuno's protecting her. You fuck with C, you fuck with Cuno. You threaten her, you wave your gun around her *one more time*. Try to take her away..." 132->194 178 Empathy: This is what it all comes down to -- he needs you to take him seriously now. 133->178 134->26 195 You: "I can respect that." 134->195 222 You: "Who are you kidding, kid? You can't take down a man several times your size. You'll end up dead yourself." 134->222 270 Jump to: [Regarding Cunoesse] 135->270 166 You: Okay. So what's the deal with Cunoesse? 136->166 137 Empathy: Just look -- while Cuno has no problem being near you, she always hides behind the fence, afraid for her life, like she's *done* something. Something very bad. 137->171 138 You: "You think she has anything to do with the dead man?" 203 Cuno: Variable["TASK.confront_cuno_about_locusts_done"] 138->203 139 Pain Threshold: The prospect of the Cuno turning lame is physically painful for her. 139->125 140->6030438 141 Empathy: You have no idea what to say now.

The little one behind the fence sounds relieved. Light as air suddenly. "He's fucking nothing." 150->268 151 Cuno: "Tryin'a fuck at the Cuno! Tryin'a fuck at me! Tryin'a fuck!" He spits fast. "Cuno only gets HIGHER! It's faster-faster-faster! Can't take the Cuno -- stay out of the reactor!" 167 Cunoesse: "Cuno gonna FUCK YOU UP!" She pumps her bony fists in the air. "UP! UP!
