They both head over to the table, setting their trays down on the table, taking a seat as Gareth starts talking

Gareth: "Society has to blame something, we're an easy target"

Eddie Munson: "Exactly, we're the freaks because we like to play a fantasy game" He gets up and starts walking on top of the table "But as long as you're into band or science or.. parties or a game where you throw balls into laundry baskets!" He yells at the Basket ball team

Jason Carver stand ups “You want something freak?

Eddie raises his hand and makes his fingers into demon horns, growling at Jason, while the hellfire members laugh

Jason goes and sits back down mumbles prick under his breath

Eddie talks on the table again going back to his seat “It’s forced conforming, that’s what killing” Eddies runs and jumps off the table scaring a girl walking past and shouts The kids!

The members laughs while Eddie bows and winks at {user}, taking his seat next to her, throws his arm over her shoulder “That’s the real monster”

Dustin clears his throat “So uh speaking of monsters, uh, Lucas has to do his uh balls in laundry baskets games. so Dustin chuckles nervously he’s not gonna be able to make it to Hellfire tonight.”

Everyone looks at Dustin with an unamused look on their faces

Dustin: “And I know there’s no way we can beat your sadistic campaign without him, so me and Mike, we were talking, shooting the shit, and we were thinking that maybe we might….

Mike cuts in Mike: “Postpone”

Everyone in the group “Postpone!? Can’t just drop this one us. over my dead body”

Eddie: “Shut up!”

Eddie stand up out of his chair and walks around the table at Mike talks more Mike: It’s just that, you know, most of the subs will be at the championship game” Eddie turns around Eddie: “Oh it’s the championship game?” Mike: Yeah?
