Part 8
Theres still a few locations I havent visited yet in this episode. Lets check out Stauker Park.
The old guy reading a newspaper before is now scoping out the park with binocs. Blackstar is instantly drawn to them.
At this point Im not sure why Blackstar wants these binoculars so bad, especially since theres a perfectly fine mounted set right here.
Well, if he wants them so bad, he did get $100 off Prey for selling that laptop.
Little point to having them, since Blackstar can only use the mounted binoculars here. Still, lets glance.
Remember those salacious descriptions we got on the windows in episode 1? Lets see if episode 2 delivers on those
Oh ho ho ho! Yep, those sure are tits. Why try to meet her, though? Clearly she is whore filth.
Oh yeah, here come the gushing Mel Odious plugs again.
This hippie fellow slides up into the frame and then out again.
Hes also of no consequence. Just a goofy face.
What the hell is she sitting in? If only I had the 70s Playboy issue this was scanned from.
And thats the last window that shows something, giving Blackstar a chance to leak bodily fluids over seeing his idol.
Alright, enough of that. Nothing else to do at Stauker Park right now.
In the first episode, I didnt visit Safe Harbor Inc because there was nothing to do. Lets have a look now
The fish all seem rotten in this harbor.
Blackstar is speaking figuratively, by the way. I must admit I didnt quite get that at first because theres no indication what kind of building this is. I was just like Oh, I guess this is a harbor warehouse.
Well, Blackstar doesnt have any reason to hang around here right now. Lets leave and come back later.
I havent had quite enough of this games adult content. Back we go to Sorry Charlies Tuna Bar.
Hey, a new face in the back room.
Just to let you know, Robyn is trans, and both the game and Blackstar are kind of surprisingly cool about this. In fact, she's a good friend of Blackstar's. The bartenders supposed to cue you in to Robyns presence with a line of dialogue, but I couldnt make it trigger in this game.
Whats up
Blackstar! Long time no see. How are you, darling?
Fine, Robyn. You look good.
Oh, thank you, sweetie. The pieces are almost in place.
I can see.
Youre making me blush, darling. You like what you see? Its yours anytime you want it.
The operation
Costs money, yknow. Ive been saving. Had enough to get the tits done.
They look great.
A little farther south that takes the big bucks. Someday (sigh)
Word on street
Word is, youve been asking too many questions. Whats up?
Im working on something. Its personal.
Darling, you wanna talk Im always here for you.
I know.
Safe Harbor
That big building across town? Ive heard strange tales about that place.
Fucking finally, some plot development.
Like what?
Sweetie, that place is dangerous. You should stay away from it.
Tell me more.
Wild orgies. Satanic masses. Secret passages. Snuff films. All relating to that place.
Very interesting.
Blackstar, is that a hacksaw in your pocket or are you... dear God.
I could find out more.
Id appreciate that. Ask around, Robyn. Youve got sources. See what you can find out.
Ok, darling. Bring me a present and you will be rewarded.
A present, huh? Ill be back.
Finally, someone useful, and an actual lead. We just have to find something to appease her.
In the first episode I gave a blonde hooker some crappy bracelet from my apartment just so shed talk to me, so lets see if theres anything else shiny lying around.
Outside is almost as dark as my soul
Maybe theres some more naked women outside. Lets try out those expensive binoculars.
Ach! Thwarted by a puzzle.
That really shouldnt be much of an issue when youre using binoculars to look outside. Whatev.
Nothing there? Still, interesting that I can check it out from here. No doubt thatll come in handy. Anyway, I came here to look for a gift for Robyn. Maybe I can ask Jisel to give me back those orchids I gave her earlier.
I dont doubt that for one second, your tresspassing pervert freak.
Another chance to try on her underwear and sift through her bathroom garbage
Thats a rather dramatic way of saying Jisel isnt here.
Oh well. Nab that mirror, you filthy pilferer.
Back we go to Sorry Charlies!
Why thank you, Blackstar. Its beautiful. Is this a present for me?
Yes. Thought you would appreciate its beauty. You ask around about Safe Harbor?
Sure did. Word is the place is a front for some high-tech snuff film operation.
High-tech?
The film is replaced with computer disks, CD-ROM stuff like that.
I think Ive seen one of the disks.
Guy who runs it. One evil dude. From the Southwest somewhere. Heard he killed many down there.
You sure about this?
Thats the word, Blackstar. Trust it thats your choice.
thanks, Robyn. Youve helped a great deal. I have to go. See you around.
Things are starting to come together. Next time well look into Safe Harbor some more!
