Crankshaft Rafflesian: We're Past the Tutorial Thank God!
#9
System check complete.
You're flopped over on a bed.

A film plays on the screen of a nearby tv.
The main character is a bird you're sure. It's like, a 3D cartoon or something. Like that movie with the green monster. It was probably expensive to make.
"Are you comfortable yet?"
"More pillows.... Are you allowed to like, show me this? It's still in theaters right?"
"This suite allows it, performance duelists are given priority access to the entire film catalogue.... assuming the embargo is over."
"For real? Nice.... More pillows."
"No issue-"
"No not there, lower. lower than that."
"Ah, no problem. Do you have history of leg related trauma?"
"Don't remember off the top of my head, why?"
"People who've had serious injuries sometimes like certain areas elevated."
"No, I just like it like this."
"Just to confirm, you are with Wallace Geezer's party yes?"
"Mmmhmm!"
"You seem young, are you a squire to one of the main duelists?"
"Uh... Dotty? Might be listed as Dorothy. I'm not that young. Ah, more pillows but like... stacked."
"Mm. The number of fractures you've had are absurdly high by civilian standards, so I figured you've been training under one of the two knights with you."
"Nah.... wait, two?"
"Dorothy."
"That's not a typo right?"
"Nope, although she hasn't taken a task under the title in decades until today. And just to confirm, you are... Alexandra?"
"You can call me Lex, it's easier. More pillows."
"I'm sorry, we actually can't spare anymore, we need to ration them out for other guests here."
"No worries, I'm kinda surprised you let me get away with this much."
"Can I get you anything else?"
"Yeah.. where's the rest of my stuff?"
"We put it in the shelves. We had to remove your coat and accessories to check your eye. We also left you supplies to deal with your dental overgrowth."
"Yeah I'm bad about gnawing."
"We insist you tame them before your duel. Clean presentation is valued quite a bit in duelists."
"Yeah, sorry about that."
"Also if you don't, your teeth may overgrow to the point of drilling into your brain."
"Is that true? Is that a real thing?"
"Yes. Anything else?"
"Uh... nah, I'm kinda just munchy right now but I dunno."
"We stocked the mini fridge with what sponsors allow."
"We got sponsors?"
"Yes."
"Are they good?"
"Off the record?"
"Yeah."
"No but they wanna get into this badly scene so they put good money on the match."
"I mean... I'll take it. Is Dotty okay?"
"She's finishing up with standard diagnostics, she'll join you soon."
"Cool, then I guess I'll bug you if I need more?"
"Someone will come in if you need assistance."

You lay in bed, your eye stings but you're not entirely sure what happened there. You blacked out on the bus over and are now in the comfort of a fancy hotel room.
You're not asleep but you pretend to be anyway.
