AND SO END THE GAMES.
Well well well, this season is coming to an end, isn't it? And what an end it's going to come out to be. This is Whistle with SdNL, reporting on the new sort of things that are going on lately. We hope that as this draws to a close, you recognize what you love, and what you hate.
Though to be fair, I have literally no idea what love is, considering how little things have been going on. Sure, it may seem very nice to be in love at first, but soon you start losing touch with each other. And before you know it, your closeted transgender kid is listening to you blabber on about how much you hate her dad and how you can't stand to be around him while he's away in Seattle for the third week in a row.
All the while, you end up thinking about other people and how much they love each other, all the while realizing that you can't be that way, because you just feel broken all the time. Nothing works out. Everything gets dumb. It all feels like searing pain all over as you think to yourself, "Why, what did I do to deserve such a bad hand in life?" "Nobody likes me, do they?" "Nobody appreciates what I do."
But whatever. It's just a game. Life is just a game, and I'm one missed step from game over.

Hey Pit, don't worry, I've been caught bipping buses before. That was back in high school, when I was trying to pose way back as a popular girl, right before Regina got run over by a bus. And the name's stuck ever since.
...
Fuck.

Whitty kissed the bottle.
Two! Two cannon shots!

You always just gotta remind me, don't you, O Fate?

At this point, all bets are off. I'm in too deep. Fuck it, I'll root for Pit. Whatever.

I will nominate soon. I am plumb out of ideas right now.

Following close behind are MadameButterflyKnife's Ivi in second place, having won by doing absolutely nothing, and Nebula's other tribute Cupid Kirby, who scored 4 kills, the second-most in the game.
