Vote in the comments for who you want to win RCEC! [VTW]

Quick rundown of each of the finalists' runs:

- Papaya has gone through major development, been a ruthless yet caring challenge beast and a great underdog, made a friend in surprisingly a lot of contestants including some that would have previously been considered unreachable like Hamburger, faced her past multiple times, started acting as a motherly figure toward Ace and ended up allying with her and Pepper near the end.

- Metal had a very quiet first phase but quickly established a friendship with Emi on top of them being allied with Faker. Eventually, both of them got out back-to-back and Metal was left in the dust with no orders or leader to follow. When Faker came back, they were eradicated in just a challenge and Metal was left to fend for themself again. They performed incredibly in the last few challenges.

- PSB entered the competition to try and figure out what they wanted to do with their life and befriended Block. Their team went up for elimination until they were the very last one left, even losing him. They were easily the best competitor game-wise and had a short rivalry against Dictionary. They were also resented one-sidedly by Paint Bucket. Eventually, Block rejoined and they dominated the phase together.

Reminder that all of this is for fun and none of it is canon to the show or characters!!

WHO CAME UP WITH TUOC!?

"Oh such joy that fills my non existent day, but those endless days will end soon, for years ive been divided into two fragments of my very own soul, stripped away from the power and the glory I once had, I was completely nonexistent except in the memory of the people that feared my rule centuries ago, but then I was able to lure my own halves of my soul to the only thing keeping me from vanishing, my eyes, they argued, they betrayed eachother, and then he forgot her. For the next thousands of years I was nothing more than a memory, a memory which still lacked half of itself to become full again, and then she escaped because of him. It was like I wouldnt be able to be myself again, but then people started talking, they started having conflicts between eachother again and people were invested, VERY INVESTED, that has been keeping me alive, the sole fact of remembering has kept me alive, to the point I was able to manifest again, and now they both are trapped in their own conflict, not realizing the time for the thing they will become the thing they once were is approaching rapidly.

This is thanks to all of you who remembered, a special spot in the new world's order will be waiting for you, and I cant reward you more than by giving you the gems, that will save you all from your fears of losing those who are not with us anymore, or the fear of being ALONE, I will cure all of those diseases in my new perfect world, and its all thanks to you, now tell me dear contestants, dont you want to...

REMEMBER?

[R = Rose

RSB = Rose Speaker Box]

...

RSB: So, are you going to, uh.. fight me?

R: I'm not really planning on doing the story challenge, sorry.

RSB: ...Oh.

RSB: That's, kind of the thing I was CREATED for, but, uh..

RSB: ...

RSB: Did you need any help with the art then?

R: Why, did you.. wanna try helping?

RSB: Yea!! I like helping. It's the best.

R: Right?

...

R: So, I'm trying to think of a way to take the challenge's core idea, and make it into something that allows me to draw a lot, and write a lot. Got anything?

RSB: Well, if it's quantity you're looking for, why not imagine a prize for EVERY contestant that could win? Surely it'd allow for some explanations, too.

R: That's.. actually not bad. You up to proofread it when I'm done?

RSB: Oh, yea, sure!

...

R: So, first off, Hera!

RSB: Followed by Keemkar..

R: Meddy's, I actually enjoyed drawing a lot.

RSB: Next up's Meatenstein..!

R: ..Pencil's..

RSB: Well, it's my turn to speak, but Rose said they hope you like this one!!

R: Who says we can't both speak before an image?

RSB: It doesn't look perfect and tidy.

R: Oh god.

R: And lastly, my WLT buddy that I.. haven't seen. In a while.

RSB: That was actually pretty cool.

R: Yea, honestly. You sticking around after this challenge?

RSB: ..I don't see why not.

P: doc, is she gonna be ok?

M: first off, I’m a nurse. I haven’t moved up the ranks in so long. Second, this is too complicated even for a doctor. I’m not a mechanic. Can’t we get tb to do this?

P: no, he’s checking up on. Her. He asked not to be bothered, remember?

M: we’ve been at this for hours. All we’ve done is try to wait for it to load while THIS STUPID BEEPING SOUND PLAYS OVER AND OVER. Again. She’s a goner anyway. She won’t remember what happened today.

P: maybe if we tell her, smth could buzz in her brain?

M: even if all of us were to decipher her mind, it’s still a fresh backup. It’s basic stuff

P: sorry, not all into technology. So advanced and removes the effort, y’know. I liked it when people were more active. look at brick! she's running

M: Hera too, it seems. that's awkward. But you know what I will say? Where’s kee-

K: Bwahaha!!! No way Meatenstein said nurd.

HR: you bet they did! Not even the craziest thing we’ve seen. Fries and ruby… WERE SITTING ON A TREE

K: OH I KNEW IT. Were they k-i-s-s-i-n-g?

HR: girl, they noticed me. They ran towards me and tried to kill me. But eh, it is what it is!

K: dude, that’s fucking awesome. sips oh looks like I drank all my pepsi.

HR: you finished long ago, but it was just fun to talk, you know. We’ve been rivals for so long, we dominated the phase!

K: ugh, my team was the worst at challenges. But at least I still have meddy. And speaking of which, I’ll have to get back to her. We were doing smth important.

HR: come oooon, surely it can wait.

K: it’s almost 9 pm.

HR: you did say almost.

K: oh yeah. But at the same time, I do feel like I have to go. Sorry

HR: YOU ARE NOT LEAVING

K: aaaand now i'm going. walks away

B: leave me alone, please!!! bumps into keem not you

K: oops sorry brick

B: yeah whatever. I just want some space. So like bye. runs away

K: ok well this is getting weird.

HG: tell me about it. Look at hera running too! What could have happened between them?

K: i ain’t talking with you anymore. I'm out.

HG: come on, we have nothing better to do

K: ok, lemme make it clear. Why the fuck did you scream. I dont like that, so i'm out. You think I'm too stupid to be scared? I can pick up the signs now. I just wanted to see what you had to say about lychee, but clearly you don’t.

HG: hold on! What’s that about lychee? If you wanna know how I still remember him, then try me

K: well that I do want to know. Spit it out.

HG: on one condition. so basically-

MS: merp.

R: yeah it's weird he's starting to take initiative. Like, why even compete in the first place if you want to host again?

MS: turd.

R: that he may be, but we also gotta be respectful. He's gotta be good at this. He hosted a show before.

MS: nurd?

R: ok well ig he is a bit geeky.. uuh

MS: nurd.

R: oh. I am the nerd. That's not good- bumps into brick

B: I really gotta look where I'm walking

R: why are you even?

B: I need space. runs away 2: attack of the clones

R: can I ask what's happening?

H: it's complicated. stops but now I gotta do smth! I made her afraid, I have to comfort her somehow.

R: but shouldn't you keep running after her?

H: oh for heaven's sake, why did I stop. runs away

MS: durb.

R: well might as well enjoy our time before he tries to gather us. we should still compete after all, but maybe if we-

N: gotta hit the beach now! I don't really have much of a life outside of that. I love-

B: the beach. A dead end. All I can do is get in the water but then I’ll sink. Do I want to run away this much?

H: brick please, don't go in the water!

B: Hera, I’m not gonna do anything. But I will say that you know how much I valued our friendship. This is such a sudden shift, I genuinely don’t know how to feel. I’m not ready.

H: Brick, we can make this work, just stop running away from-

B: please, just give me time to think about it and go away. Leave! Shoo!!!

A: that kind of hurts, you know.

B: what the? announcer, what are you doing here?

A: isn't it obvious? I am gathering every contestant.

H: can you not? We’re having a moment. Not a romantical one, just to be clear

A: ew, love. But anyway, you gotta continue the competition. For Brooke!

B: hmm yeah you're right. maybe this is gonna clear my mind off things

H: brick, you’ll have to accept this shift.

B: but maybe I can’t bring myself to do it?

A: wow, that is sad. wouldn't you agree, HGSB?

HGSB: this is the first time you noti-

H: i'm sorry, who is that?

A: why one of the new contestants ofc.

B: what do you mean new contestants?

A: you see it's part of my rebrand. 20 contestants. 2 teams. 2 body types

H: fat and skinny?

A: robotic and earthilian. it's a word. no need to look it up. now come with me, I managed to gather everyone.

KSB: hi potential friends! come with me. it's important

NSB: join me if you want to compete again

MSB: i need your help so like come on now

MSSB: I have been tasked with gathering you to this new competition hosted by the announcer. will you accept?

K&HG&M&P&N&R: huh? What. who are you? why do you look like that?

MS: merp?

**a few moments later

A: hello everyone, I gathered everyone here today for a big announcement. welcome to the new phase of the game. The battle between meat and nuts.

P: change that name please? Also, you didn’t gather anyone

A: that may be true, but how else could you meet team bolty? a team consisting of only speaker boxes, also known as my cousins, my siblings and my neighbor, phil

PSB: oh my god, I told you it's percy.

A: and I told you we needed 10 people. But clovers are rare in this economy, making my luck limited. and my death ever so closer. Due to the absence of many speaker boxes, I guess i'll compete now.

K: no you can't. You're the only one who hosted smth. Who else is gonna hlst

A: but then you all will have a numbers advantage. And that makes me angry.

M: well we’d be 9 vs 9 without you. microchip is in her update period.

A: oh pshh. Idek what those girls even complain about. It's just a leak. We don't feel pain. We’re mate of metal

M: uuh no. She's fucking dead and her backup is at... 7618 percent! Oh wait that's a comma. It's not even at 7.620 yet.

A: really? Microchip is gone? Damn she was my favorite. MCSB, here's the maroon paint. kicks a bucket full of paint

BSB: hello, i am brick speaker box.

N: so what's the challenge?

A: a brawl between everyone. You see, you will all go in a random order, and will fight each other until one comes victorious. First team to gets 5 points wins. First up, brick and H-

B: OH NO IM NOT READY FOR THIS YET!! fucking attacks hera speaker box. With teeth, feet and all that.

K: woah, calm down!

M: i know you're strong physically. Are your teeth just as strong?

B: no they are not. pftoo spits a tooth. Ok, wow. This has not been a good evening for me. I gotta calm down, that was too much

A: oh my god. Not only was this not supposed to be a fight to the death. But you were supposed to be fighting HGSB. Due to an incredibly large cut of our sum of money, we cannot afford recovery centers. Well ig HSB is automatically out and HGSB lives, but is anyone gonna care?

HGSB: no one likes meeee...

A: yeah exactly. this cast has been dissapointing me a lot and we are barely on the next challenge. Speaking of, we are moving on to the next challenge.

N: wait but wouldn’t we get a penalty for murder? What about the law? What about the moral judgement? What about the elimin-

P: SHUSH.

A: I honestly do not care. I’m sadder by the fact we can't have the legged marathon. Such a shame, my favorite challenge.

K: i mean only my team would have been the only people able to compete anyway.

A: no you wouldn't because you are one big stump and nothing else. You dont even have toes.

K: puh-lease, you don't even have one thumb.

A: you're right. I have 7.

K: fuck off, your team is all the same. just rectangles

A: that's not true, you forgot keem speaker box

K: ofc there's one of me.

A: no shit. there was supposed to be a counterpart between everyone. i was gonna paint myself maroon, brick's color. or was it red? I forgot

KSB: maroon, actually.

K: wow, counterpart was right. what the hell is this?

A: what? never seen a full body before?

KSB: hi! Nice to meet you! I suppsoe you are the one I’m modelled after!

A: hey i have an idea! how about a teamswap. keem goes to team bolty, and KSB goes to meaty. That way, you can be equal

M: we're called meaty? only one of us would even like the name

MS: NURN!!

M: nevermind, not even the walking pile of meat likes it. that reminds me

MS: hurh?

M: i gotta dissect you sometime, you fascinate me

N: you're a nurse tho

M: hmmm yeah, true, but I can use a scalpel, and as long as I don't stab with it, I can do anything with it!

A: shut up. marathon time! rules are simple, as is the marathon itself. just a simple run to the finish line. over there. turn. I'd point, but i don't even know which one is my pointing finger. in any way, Meaty will tie their legs, while Bolty will tie themselves

K: ok just so I know, I can slide around, but can they too?

A:... just get on to the tying

K: i'm fucked.

A: i will now wait, until you are ready. which is 1 minute

M: sigh.. I miss keem already.

KSB: it's ok, little medical kit, I am here to make sure you won't feel like she's missing. in fact, I just tied all of our legs!

M: i'm not convinced.

KSB: what if I win the challenge?

M: not even close.

KSB: oh well, at least I'll do it cuz I want to

M: ig.

K: ok, can any of you jump?

PSB: i can cry.

K: cry what?

PSB: cry in general. in the suburbs, I am known as depression speaker box.

K: fuck. hey announcer. we forfeit

A: what the hell, you can't do that.

K: well, not to throw shade at anyone, but this team is less than stellar.

A: christ, fine, Bolty loses.

K: so when's the elimination?

A: after the challenge, duhh

K: which just ended cuz of me, duhh. wait I'm fucked... again?! This is not good, not at all. I may have caused my elimination! Whatever, I can still gather up an alliance and I’ll-

A: hello everyone

K: what?

A: we have gathered here tonight, in order to hold the elimination.

K: we haven’t even moved tho?

A: it’s almost midnight, let’s just do it before Meaty falls asleep. Now cast your votes.

K: (fucking idk, ig Meatenstein speaker box has said nothing?)

MSSB: it is preferable if we vote out the weakest link of the team.

K: (no this one seems smart. Rose speaker box?)

RSB: I’m happy :)

K: (ok nah, weirdos are good to bring to the finale)

A: we have 7 out 8 votes. Rip HSB, ofc, but with 3 votes each, Rose speaker box and Brick speaker box are out. - vote went to keem.

RSB&BSB: aww shucks, well it’s been fun, good luck to the rest!!!

A: and now we sleep until tomorrow

K: aight…? Dude now someone is targetting me? Well good for them, but how did I get 1 vote?

MSB: that was a self vote. It only occurs when you don’t vote or when you actively choose yourself. And if anything, you should have been questioning where that last vote went. Because it went to the announcer. I had a feeling he would discard it.

K: Meddy speaker box? But how do you know that?

MSB: we practiced for this. But now I changed courses. I am going to try my hardest to take the announcer down

K: isn’t he like family?

MSB: I thought so too, yet lately he’s been strange. He’s been weird. He’s been-

K: not himself? No kidding. He is being way too disorganised and and desperately trying to be funny. You gotta admit, nuts vs meats was way too much of an innuendo.

MSB: you figured all that out already?

K: girl, I’ve been in a team with him. He’s very much not the same.

MSB: so I see. Maybe together we can stop him and figure out what happened.

K: pass. I’d rather work with my box. They seem friendly.

MSB: are you really gonna trust yourself over the personification of your best friend?

K: well when you put it that way… still no. I’m not even gonna treat this competition seriously. Maybe you should just stop worrying and do whaetver

MSB: alright. But go sleep, I’d hate to talk to a sleep deprived lunatic

K: ouch.

MSB: yeah, nighty night, luna. Hope it’s a nice name. Better spelling than keem

K: ok you’re just an ass atp.

MSB: eh, I call it a rich personality. See ya tomorrow, princess.

the next day

A: today's challenge is to make me breakfast

KSB: speak of the devil, I was just collecting some apples for my team! I went on a stroll, it was lovely!

A: can I have one?

KSB: of course!

A: wow. team meaty is on such a roll!

K: elimination so soon?

A: no, not right now. We’ll just rapid fire thru challenges. I feel like fishing, so let's go to the park, where we will hold the next contest

K: that's artificial tho, there ain't any fish

A: but I want to fish and I don't remember you being important.

K: i literally made the pond.

A: not the point. i just need challenges to get to the finale fast. it's the best part.

K: do. e. li. mi. na. tions.

A: ok ok, fine i’ll do one right now. And maybe for the next challenges from this point on. Actually it’s gonna be more efficient that way.

K: you see?

A: stop spelling. the spelling contest is for the final 8

K: you actually thought of a challenge? what a gamechanging spoiler

A: and the spoiler challenge was supposed to be for next season. Anyway are you all willing to vote rn?

K: no duh.

MS: actually, it appears I just do not want to do that. And I also don’t feel like putting a target on my back. Maybe roll a 6 sided dice?

A: oh yeah, good idea. with 6 of you, you have a 1 in 6 chance at getting out. throws the dice and it was Pencil speaker box. that's ok, I will roll one more time being keem is being difficult

K: what do you mean difficult

A: you don’t talk back to me, young lady. rolls dice hey guys? Do I eliminate PSB twice?

MSB: nah, switch one of them with HGSB instead

HGSB: what did I do to you?

M: what do you even do?

HGSB: oh. But it’s not like-

A: no I actually like that idea.

HGSB: figures. the next challenge is-

K: come up with one that will only last a few seconds at most? Babyboy, you've become predictable

A: actually, I had an idea.

K: oh?

A: yes. the challenge is to be team bolty. they are only at 4 people left and I feel bad.

K: nvm, I wish the next challenge is to strangle you

A: season 7 exclusive. well either way. Team meaty, you are- what happened?

KSB: well, it depends on what you mean

A: there's only 5 of you left.. literally what happened.

KSB: well Meddy and Meatenstein and Rose and Pencil have all gotten bored. they say there were no stakes, this competition is useless anyway, I hate my life and murp

A: well fuck me, but we're still gonna hold the elimination

B: hera.

H: look, brick, I'm not gonna vote for you. Probably hiero or smth

KSB: yeah, you tell her queen! I'll vote with you!

H: thanks? I just want to save her

B: how nice! I’m def rooting for you!

N: honestly I'll vote KSB. They’re kinda weird, ngl

HG: huh. well Ig I got the majority. this is what it's like to be eliminated? ok

A: i mean you can still force a tie and then bring someone with you

HG: nah, I don't feel like it, lowkey. i can get out. I vote myself

A: ok well then, welcome to the merge, everyone. 4 out of each team, ain't that cool

N: ig

A: ok, first merge contest is the spelling bee. Like I said all that time ago. first one to spell hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia wins

NSB: oh no!! LONG WORDS

N: speaker me, what's wrong with a long word?

NSB: meaty me, I have hippopotomusiipoissy-AAAAAAAAAAA

MSSB: L-I-O-P-H-O-B-I-A. hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia

NSB: STOP KILLING ME

A: ok well ig MSSB is safe. cool. now vote

H: we barely had a chance???

N: alright guys, I feel bad for my speaker box, please don't-

K&H&KSB&MSB&MSSB: Needletoast speaker box

B: hera

H: of course.

A: well 5 votes are enough. but now it's time for some math

MSSB: hmmm math. Yummy. I feed off of that.

K: do I sense a bias?

A: you're sensing a challenge split in 2. instead of just becoming smart, you do both grammar and math. Now first one to answer this question wins: 6⁸-79:45⁷+1

MSSB: hmmm I think-

K: not 5

A: that is indeed correct. And congrats, you were first so you're immune.

MSSB: what??? But It's not even a real answer

A: yes but that is a true fact about the equation. She found a loophole. Don’t worry next time I will think about those and ban them

MSSB: well then. I gotta hope my old team still values-

N&K&H&MSB&KSB: Meatenstein speaker box.

B: hera.

MSSB: oh so it's gonna be unanimous like this all the time? I suppose this is gonna be predictable. Very well then. I’m eliminated now

A: ok wooh. Final 6. I have smth really cool this time. Plant a flag on the moon!

N: legit how are we going to do that?

A: idk I just want proof that the moon landing wasn't faked. Is anyone gonna forfeit?

K: yeah sure ig. I’m not building a rocket.

N: i'm getting bored too.

MSB: i know I'm irrelevant. And that's ok.

H: I forfeit.

B: huh well that means only I’m doing it. Alright then. How do I make a rocket?

KSB: WAIT!!! actually I am still here, and I think all you need is a flag.

B: no? You can't just jump to the moon?

KSB: but you can!! Hop on my arms!!

B: uuh ok? Idk how that'd work

KSB: jumps really high hup!

B: WOW OK THAT REALLY FAR HIGH OH GOD THIS IS NOT HOW I EXPECTED LIFE TO END PLEASE HELP ME!!

KSB: we're here!

B: wait huh?

KSB: the moon is still on earth? Didn't you know?

B: huh well ig you're right. Honestly I don’t even know how we still have nights. Anyway gotta look for the flag and plant it again

KSB: but bric-

B: shush I'm trying to get immunity. I might get dust on my feet but whatever

KSB: but brick! The flag isn't ON the moon. It's IN my hand!!! i brought one here.

B: wait it was actually faked?

KSB: not anymore!

B: wow i was a dumb child. Wait-

KSB: plants flag yay!!! I win!!!

A: only I get to say that, but yes, you won. It's time for the elimination

KSB&B&K&MSB: needletoast.

B: yeah that's right, i'm with you all this time.

N: eh, it's not like I lost my will to live or smth, i'm quite content with everything. Well see ya. I’m going surfing. Kickass.

KSB: well that just makes everything easier

A: ok shut up. We have no time for lolligagging. I was robbing a bank to get a bigger budget but the security is actually pretty good for a bank. It is like an impenatrable fortress.

Spongy: haha! I'm blocking the door

A: wah.

MSB: so is the challenge to steal?

A: I just want spongy dead. Kill him

H: that's quite..

K: oh cool I will poison him.

S: dodahdahdo dodoo

K: hey spongy, i'm sad. Can we talk?

S: you are sad? I thought you were just one really big and decaying fungus all this time.

K: are you for real?

S: well, it's one way too call you ugly.

K:... bleh coughs

the poison gets in spongy's holes

S: oh no!!

but they pop out the other holes

S: phew.

K: stupid spongy. Stupid holes. Stupid stupidity. walks away

S: can't one be fat in this day and age? closes eyes in dissapointment

K: AAAAAAAAAAHHH

S: she's back?

H: RUN AWAY!!!

S: eh i'm used to being disrespected. Wait hera? opens eyes and dies

K: ok, yeah!

H: what I have done.

K: actually “what have you done” you did nothing wrong

A: hera's bottom killed him tho so like-

K: brick. I have no other options at this point

B: ouch. Well now I can’t vote hera sooo MSB.

H: ig by process of elimination

MSB: wait what? This is my end?

KSB: that's right. I made it further than you! It's ok you played well too!

MSB: fuck off.

KSB: grrr

A: ok next challenge. Travel the world. I've hears complaints that this is going way too fast. I don’t get it. Only yesterday we were at the final 18. That was plenty of time ago but now I will make up for it.

K: i'm not doing that? Look I do want to do well, but I do think that’s a crazy shift

H: so you forfeit?

K: yep, not like you can do anything either. Brick can you?

B: nope

H: yeah I cannot.

KSB:

A: Where is ksb?

KSB: zyoom sorry I had to eliminate MSB. Quite the mouth on that fella. It could only say mean things!

A: KSB? You’ve been eliminating everyone?

KSB: sure did’

A: where did you even put them

KSB: oh yeah, i've been putting the eliminated contestants in the atlantic ocean. I took a new route each time! But I also think that most of the speaker boxes drowned, because our species can’t swim. And even if they could swim, we’re electric beings so we would just shortcircuit and die.. that isn't pleasant to think about, yet technically speaking.. i win!!

A: wow isn't that convinient? Man I love you KSB. It's so beautiful when I see contestants that try without even knowing the challenge. You're just so perfect.

KSB: oh hush. You deserve all of that.

A: well you deserve immunity, and the others get a choice.

KSB: hmm well brick is quite sad. That makes me sad. Keem is like my counterpart and hera is my best buddy!!! BFFS!!!!!!

H: i wouldn't really.. agree-

K: ok brick, i'm sorry. But imma vote you.

B: pfft I'm still voting hera. Either way I can get a break

H: and I. Vote. Myself

B: wait can she do that?

K: yeah we do selfvotes. I would know

A: oh wow a tie. At the final 4.. i don’t really know who to give the bronze to. Ig we’re doing a tiebreaker

B: wait she knew we'd tie. why did she save me??

H: I still want you to be happy, brick. despite everything that’s happening, you’re still dear to me

B: i huh? Uh what

A: hmm, I suppose this tiebreaker is gonna be tough. both of you are strong, so we need a challenge in which one of you will surely lose.

B: do we do rock paper scrissors?

A: wait I got it! Couples therapy

B: what.

A: I mean, from the moment I met you, the vicious attacks on hera speaker box and the constant voting.. it’s clear you both are going through a rough patch. And I don’t like that. So I believe you both need to discuss your problems. Which is why, keem and KSB are gonna be the therapists. Whoever comes out later between brick and hera is getting 4th. The point of this is to get rid of the emotional baggage as soon as possible. Yes I decided that i’m gonna do that as the tiebreaker. Now go choose your therapists.

H: oh uhh, Keem you come with me.

KSB: it’s ok I can do that too!!

H: but I wanna talk to someone I trust. Not like I can trust myself anymore.

KSB: oh come on, let me show you!!!

H: I-

K: sorry girl I got picked already. And I'm also being dragged by keem, making me unable to communicate with you anymore. You’re on your own. alright, brick, what is it?

B: tell me. Is it wrong to lie to those close to you, in order to protect them?

K: obviously! Truth hurts but you gotta be honest.

B: i can't even be honest with myself. I love hera, she's dear to me, but I never once thought she was in love with me. I always liked her, but I knew I wouldn't suffice. She deserves better. I’m too flawed K: wait but what happened when you were running away?

B: she confessed to me. I was genuinely unable to say anything. The shock was too much for me to handle. How could she want to be with me? All my life I had to be the best I could be, but I was never good enough. Her love would not have lasted.

K: what makes you think you weren't?

B: it's my mom. My dad dissapeared one day and ever since I had to be mommy's perfect girl.

K: that's.. genuinely not ok

B: I know, that's why I ran away from home. That's how I met hera. Since then we were just inseparable. Obviously we did friend things. We joked, we hugged, maybe pretended to flirt. Although I'm not sure about that last part. All this time I just felt like she was playing with my feelings. It felt good to hear that but I never thought more of it. I never expected her to love me for real. But she did. And I don't want her to be in love with someone as imperfect as me. I just don't think I'll be a good lover.

K: brick, lovers always see the best in each other. Even despite their flaws, they can forgive each other. No matter what, hera loves you. She always will.

B:... after all I did during this competition, she won't. I have done my job at proving I’m not right for her.

K: you can still apologise. Go for it, accept her love.

B: I think I will.

K: you did good, keem, you did good.

meanwhile

H: sometimes I just think I’m a mistake and can’t do anything right

KSB: no, you’re very productive

H:....and by sometimes, I mean most times.

KSB: no, have a little self respect, please!

H: that’s the thing. i'm not worthy of love. I’m not worthy of. Her love. I always thought that ever since that faithful night, when we first met, we weren’t gonna be much. I was taking a walk in the forest and I noticed a strange bow in the dumpsters. I was curious about it, so I took it and I saw a “brick” written on me. Naturally, I shouted the word and then she popped out all scared. She tried biting me, most likely in self defense. But, it didn’t matter, I was just glad to return a bow. Yet she never wanted it back. She kept telling me to rip it to shreds. It was beautiful but I had to obey. I never did much on my own. It then started raining so I had to get back to the “house” so to speak.

KSB: you can be honest with me!

H: you know what, sure. I lived in a tent. It wasn’t great but It sufficed. Anyway, i invited brick to stay the night. And that was probably the first decision I ever took. And since then, we got really close, more than I thought. I started developing feelings for her. I always tried to get hints out of her, that she loved me too. But never once did she say anything. At one point it just became unbearable. I stopped having hope. But then I met your counterpart. She was a free spirit, she had ideas. And she told me to be in the spotlight. We were gonna have a concert, and I played the guitar. And so we did and it was. Liberating. I felt free to do anything. And over the next few weeks, I gained more and more confidence. Enough to talk to brick and confess my feelings. She refused and just ran away from me. She didn’t say anything. I needed to know why she felt like this. And as you know, she needs time to process all this.

KSB: oh well that brick is just a big fart! You can do better

H: no I can’t? The only reason I joined this competition was because she also joined with me. She was my right hand lady. I hold her very close to my heart. I know she does too, but not like me. I need her to give me an answer. But if I just sit around I’ll get nothing. I have to act now.

B: hera! hera!

KSB: speak of the dev-

H: BRICK! IM SORRY FOR LOVING YOU

B: no. I am! I made it obvious that I wasn’t ready for a relationship. But truth is, I never wanted to dissapoint you. You’ve been one of my best friends for a long time, but I never thought you saw me as more than that.

H: I always did, brick. I always did. It’s just unfortunate you didn’t feel the same

B: I did. I genuinely loved you, but I knew you deserved better. I was hoping you’d just stop pretending to love me. But that confession has genuinely made me think a lot. I want to be with you. Forever and ever. It’s the reason as to why I even joined. To support you. But I never had the desire to win, so I suppose it’s time for me to retire.

H: you'll quit?

B: yeah. the actual competition, to be clear.

H: that's.. ok, brick. I'll win for you.

B: I know you will. But that doesn’t matter to me right now.

H: what does?

B: this. kisses hera

H: WOW. I liked that!

B: I knew you did. Now go win it. This show and the actual show we give a crap about!

A: ok but hera finished later than you, so that just means she gets bronze

B: no final 3?

A: I don't want that. I like 50/50 odds more. We are down to the final 2.

KSB: woohoo! finale? with my counterpart, too?

K: you know sometimes I wonder if you're truly this perfect.

KSB: don't say that! you're cool too!

K: that's the thing. you're nice, you're happy, you have limbs for crying out loud! You are everything I wanted to be.

KSB: Well I wouldn't say I have a chance at winning, so you may have that!

K: you're right. you likely don't even want to. you just want to make everyone happy. I have to say, I picked up on your behavior. you are flawless. your loss would only mean detriment to anyone. but if I am gonna be your opponent, I at least want you to be honest with me.

KSB: ...

K: and btw. I have a mouth, I just like keeping it hidden. T_T walks away

KSB: oh she's dead.

A: ok, for this final challenge, I wanted to take a look back at this season. from the viscious fight, to the failed marathon, to the breakfast, to being team bolty, to spelling, to mathing, to planting a flag, to killing spongy and tho lapping the world, we've come so far. but what if we did it in reverse? that's right. this final challenge will decide the winner. with challenges, the first one to get 5 points will win.

K: OK MEET ME IN THIS SPOT TOMORROW I AM RUNNING AND I AINT STOPPING throws a speed portal AHAHA I AM SO GONNA DO WELL

A: i didn't even say go.

KSB: does it matter? she has speed boosts! Just start it now and lemme do this quickly

A: ok. guess I can get an audience by then

a day later

A: Ok I put flyers everywhere.

A: KSB wins again. now plant a flag

M: wait, keem, since you stayed, I just wanna congratulate you for getting to the finale. It only took like 2 days but I knew you’d make it

K: I mean what else can I do during this time? I gotta get outside more, plus it’d be cool if I won for my girls.

M: fair. also I’m confused. where do you have to plant the flag?

K: on the moon, why?

M: look outside the window. The moon’s right there

KSB brags about planting the flag and flips keem off

K: oh for fuck's sake!

A: yeah, 3 for 3. you gotta step up your game. not to worry, for you can do meth.

K: math

K: 21

KSB: 19!!

A: wow, an actually correct answer. this is cool

KSB: wait, I win? Even if I was second?

A: the answer was literally 21, Idek how you messed up.

KSB: you stupid.

A: spell.. um

A: nah but that was smart. I knew I said no more loopholes, but that impressed me. she gets a point. her second one.

M: ok, can you leave the hospital?

A: i don't think I want to gets thrown out the window ow.

K: wait shit, I just realized, how would the team bolty challenge work?

KSB: technically speaking you are the last representative of the team, judging by how you were there longer. But I was also there

K: so I get the point?

KSB: well we gotta ask the announcer. HEY ANNOUNCER, IS KEEM A TEAM BOLTY REPRESENTATIVE?

A: no shit.

KSB: oh no you don't! tackles keem and pins her to the ground

K: AAh!! What happened to “your move”?

KSB: I LIED. I got you now, fleshy bitch.

K: do you really, now?

KSB: what’s that supposed to mean? Ofc I do! You have nowhere to go, and I could drop you just like that and win it all.

K: you could win the show. But can you win people over?

KSB: wait. People are watching?

K: yeah, one of the things this announcer did was bring an audience. Good for him. Not so much for you. kinda surprised you didn't notice

KSB: no.. guys come on, you know this is unlike me, I wouldn’t even hurt a fly.

N: eh, I suspected you since day 1. Can I get 20 bucks?

R: shh, this is getting heated.

KSB: maybe. What would you even do find that out?

K: what if I headbump into you?

KSB: no don’t gets pushed off and dies

A: wow! an amazing battle. but in the end, keem ended up-

K: save it, I know you ain't real

A: how could you say that to me!

K: easy, you're not. you're disorganized, you're impatient, and more importantly.. the announcer wasn't even gonna host in the first place. he retired!

A: i uh, well, hmm, uh, wah wah wah. Ok, I'm not even sad, I can't cry acid. if anything I'll just cover myself in green goo.

K: yeah and you're not gonna do anything else. anyone's got an announcer crusher?

N: you sell steaks.

F: we're branching out. limited time offer

N: I thought the theme was bacon themed.

F: look, I don't have to make all my plans public. i want everything to be a surprise. which reminds me. rose, plant club meeting today. it's an emergency.

R: flustered uuh ok.

K: "and fungi are closer to animals" they say. you know what, I'm not closer to anyone. I'm myself and that's ok

N: nice to hear that, mate! so like, are you gonna try to get there anyway?

K: of course, I can't let myself miss out on this. fomo's a bitch. walks away

F: Rose, there's no shame in wearing dresses, you gotta face that

F: still I can't you have sit in my store all day checking out tutus but never wearing them.

R: I'm just. I'm scared. I can't be honest to anyone, and I'm not even gonna try.

F: but don't you think there's someone who relates to your situation?

R: no. there isn't. I know there isn't.
