[ flops down beside him (I'm assuming he's sitting with the whiskey) and holds a hand out for it. With the other hand he's cradling his forehead like he's got a headache. ]
[ he takes a swig from the bottle. then pulls out his flask and pours some in there too. ]
...Yeah. But not in that way.

Shook down a kid for evidence in the trial when he wasn't cooperating. He got voted for, but he was innocent. At execution, turns out we didn't shake him down enough--he had a bunch of scalpels hidden away that he fought back with. And someone made it so he couldn't feel pain, so he...just kept on fighting even as he got more and more hurt.
It was ugly.
It was ugly.
So he went numb.
[ That's not better. Especially not if it comes to a kid. In his mind's eye he can't imagine Mitile getting into that much trouble, but with the way things are here, it's not like he could stop an execution. ]
Sounds awful.
[ The view must've been worse. ]

Jesus. I didn't even know that could happen, people dying in execution who weren't voted for.
[ nods ]
When it was me, I was given a gun without any ammo in it. And when I fired the executioner's gun, all the bullets redirected into me.
We'll have to see which direction the executions like to be rigged, around here.

Don't look at me, I don't know video games. Ours were never like that. They were themed after whatever location we had that week.
We had a town, but there was a portal at the north end of town that would lead to different locations. Space stations, beaches...
The week I was executed, it was a desert town, so the execution was set up like a Wild West shootout.

[ ugh, right. totally different worlds. ]
...you said you led a gang of wizard bandits, right? Think--lawless town in the desert full of rival wizard bandits. And old-timey.

[ i'm at the starlight hotel. i'm at the applebee's. i'm at the combination starlight hotel applebee's.
Bucky just stares at the place with a look of sheer skepticism. ]

Not sure. And honestly, I'm not keen on checking every door to find out.
[ in fact, he tries to open the door and leave! except it is locked now, of course. ]
Oh come on!
[ he jiggles the knob for a while trying to get it to open, before giving it a little frustrated kick ]
