| Weapons: four-way bic pen. notepad. sharpie. orange tic-tacs. butter menthols. quick-eze (if you throw up at a party, i'll give you one of these and you'll be feeling fine). blistex. lighter. |
| Quote: "The great mystery is not that we should have been thrown down here at random between the profusion of matter and that of the stars; it is that from our very prison we should draw, from our own selves, images powerful enough to deny our nothingness." - Andre Malraux. |
