SPITEandCAFFEINE
Meet our new recruit, Snek
Musical-Snek-Boi
Hi
Chaos
Welcome to the war
I’m Chaos, one of our teams leaders
I sorta share the position with Zombie
Zombie_Bird
Sup
MyPalVal
Thank goodness, honestly
That numbers disadvantage was really depressing
PurpleWaffles
Tell me about it
Friar Tuck
Is he skilled though?
It doesn’t matter if he’s not skilled
Musical-Snek-Boi
I think objectively I’m pretty good, but I don’t know what your standards are
The Kon Man
Is your kill/death ratio positive?
Musical-Snek-Boi
Yes
JazzHands
Extremely basic judging criteria but it’s a good place to start
I say we hop in a lobby and do some practice
Zombie_Bird
Sounds good to me
Chaos
Yeah it’s been a while since we all did something like that together
PurpleWaffles
I’m game
Friar Tuck
Same
The Kon Man
My little brother is pestering me about something so I can’t right now but I might join you later
Tell me how it goes though
SPITEandCAFFEINE
Sure thing man
MyPalVal
I might need to leave early for my shift
Friar Tuck
Ahh the woes of being a productive member of society
MyPalVal
One day you’ll join us, just you wait
Friar Tuck
A sad day that will be, truly
Chaos
Knock it off you two
Get into the lobby
Friar Tuck
Yes Ma’am

GROUPCHAT - The WDFJ Club
The Kon Man
Guys
I know I don’t do double agent things very often but uhh
The other team just got a new member
Ghost Girl
WHat???
The_Blood_Son
What is their tag and what do you know about them?
The Kon Man
Their tag is “Musical-Snek-Boy#****” and I don’t know much about him, but he says his kill/death ratio is positive and he considers himself good at the game
They’re practicing right now, but I thought I should let you guys know as fast as I could
SPITE is going to tell me about him later though so I’m not really missing much
The_Blood_Son
It’s better than nothing, I suppose.
Notactuallyanerd
Oh gosh
Should we practice too?
MouseBug
Hang on a second…
Ghost Girl
What is it Mouse Sensei?
MouseBug
I know that tag!
The Kon Man
You do???
The_Blood_Son
Is there any additional information you have on him?
MouseBug
Any additional information?
Heck, what do you want to know??
I dated the guy for like, two weeks!
Ghost Girl
WHAT??
Oh Oh Oh drama
Notactuallyanerd
That feels like a huge coincidence…
MouseBug
It’s not a coincidence
Not really
Musical-Snek-Boi is Viperion, our Snake miraculous holder
Honey Bee encouraged him to talk to Red Robin at our last visit to the Batcave
I’d say they struck up a friendship
Babababs
Well this is interesting…
Is he good?
MouseBug
Basically, yes
But that’s not what I’m worried about
I’m the one who taught him a lot of what he knows about the game
GhostGirl
GASP! Original student?
MouseBug
Not really
It was never anything formal, just conversation and stuff when we were playing
What I’m getting at though
The_Blood_Son
He knows your playstyle.
He could recognize you.
MouseBug
Exactly
Also another related problem, he could recognize Double A and MyLittleRobot’s tags
And then he could realize my identity as The Teacher, which is one of their win conditions
Babababs
We still don’t have any win conditions, do we
The_Blood_Son
We need to reclaim our stolen items and beat them in another formal duel.
I’d say that should constitute our win.
MouseBug
@everyone we need a strategy
MyLittleRobot
Us three Parisians should develop a cover story.
Babababs
I can help. I have a lot of experience with that
DoubleA
My Snake buddy joined the other side???
Noooooo!
Betrayal!!!
Ghost Girl
Snake Buddy?
Mouse Bug
They’ve both used the Snake Miraculous before
Ghost Boy
This is not what I was expecting when I got that ping
Babababs
Cover story?
DoubleA
Uhhhhhhhhh
Well, Mouse is going to be playing on her alt, so we have that going for us at least
Mouse Bug
Yeah but if they recognize my play style that doesn’t matter
What we need is for me to mask my play style and then a good excuse for why I’m not participating
The_Blood_Son
We should practice with all new elements in place, preferably on the Europeans servers.
My Little Robot
As for the excuse, we could say we invited you, but you were too busy to join.
Viperion knows enough about you to buy that.
Mouse Bug
Honestly, between being the leader of the Miraculous team, fashion design, and class president duties, I’m surprised that excuse isn’t the truth.
This game is important to my mental health though so I don’t regret helping.
Notactuallyanerd
That’s good, for a second I was worried we were stressing you out.
DoubleA
What do we do if he asks who Lady Pizza is?
Mouse Bug
We don’t tell him
It’s bad form to ask something like that about an internet person you don’t really know anyway
Double A
True
Ghost Boy
It’s alright, we can gaslight gatekeep girlboss our way through this
Ghost Girl
Afjlhasgls why
The Kon Man
I’m going to go be a good double agent now bye
Mouse Bug
I’m in european server one
Babababs
On my way
