Mrgh.

Just... don't ask. Seriously. Don't.

ANYWAY.

So you know those vidya games where you have a choice about how to play - you can sneak through the levels without killing enemies (or only killing as a last resort), or you can go Full Ham and leave a huge trail of blood and destruction in your wake?

If your character is playing such a game, what option do they choose? What about in their real life? Are they an IRL pacifist who loves a chance to let rip when it's 'just a game'?

I know Viv plays MMORPGs and she seems to favor barbarian class types. I think she likes letting go with the mayhem because in real life she can't be anything but controlled, if all the stories about rampaging robots and androids are any indication as to human fears.

Jess, I feel, aims for the runs where she sneaks through levels killing as few as possible. She'd says it shows more skill but I think deep down she still has an urge to kill first and she doesn't want to encourage that. (I know it's been forever since she was trained as an assassin but that training happened during very formative years.)

In real life Bastion's not very stealthy and has killed more than enough people, so I think they'd enjoy being the sneakiest sneaker ever to sneak in a game.
