I don't think most people fully appreciate how free it truly is to roam. not far. the close stuff. the nearby buildings. you can actually just go most places, reasonability permitting. there are places you do not go because you do not need to, but you can go there. most buildings are designed to allow people inside of them, you can look around any store, all the sections, and then you may leave
go as high as you can get in every building that permits, and then go back down. some elevators won't let you do that, but many will. if they ask why you are there, say it is for an interview, wander around a bit, enter the washroom, and if they get suspicious, ask where you are, then apologise. this will only work so many times. if pressed too hard, say you are here for an interview with someone, use your last name for them, and when they say nobody works there with that name, slap your head and leave quickly. if they try to kill you, you've entered into the martial portion of your journey, and I can offer you no guidance
if someone does work there with that name, you need to try playing the long lost heir card and hope it works. it might be your building soon, and then you can go up and down it much as you please.
i do think we should normalise being like. platonically enamoured with someone. perhaps i love and admire you dearly and there's nothing romantic about it
the actual main difference between data and spock is that data is almost completely sincere the majority of the time meanwhile spock is mostly lying or being a bitch for fun
The song and its lyrics are composed by John Lowrie (the Sniper), who alongside Robin Atkin Downes (Medic) is on guitar and vocals. Also on vocals we have Gary Schwartz (Heavy, Demoman) and Dennis Bateman (Spy), while on piano is Ellen McLain (the Administrator). The song details, in Lowrie's words, "the TF2 Mercs' struggle to find the Sandvich for Heavy."
