Thank lord I got it

I love the two guards at her side when she leaves silently making gestures. "She's an absolute maniac!" "Yeah, no kidding." They've gotta be pretty brave or pretty stupid to be doing that while shes still in the room.

[@shannonhogue9655]

Lackadaisy, TADC, Ramshackle, Murder Drones, Bigtop Burger, just to name a small few are literally going to revolutionize the art of the web series. And games like Billie bust up are just going to be one of the many things that might revolutionize gaming. Just give it about 1 month to 3 years idk :p
