Line 2:
Toby finished typing and looked at his laptop screen intently. He checked it, scanning the last few words, and then announced "That's the next script ready."
 
"Does it have ‘eat'eat a mountain of dicks' in it?" Jacob  asked.
 
With a nod, Toby replied, "Yes, seven."
 
Jacob smiled. "Nice one. Can you make it ‘eat'eat a great pyramid of Giza of dicks'?"
 
With a shrug, Toby made the alterations. "What about you, Matt?"
Line 30:
"Yeah" echoed Jacob. "Fucking feminist."
 
Toby bit his tongue. Nothing about the girl's story indicated that she was a feminist, thought Toby. If anything, the story seemed to be the product of a troubled young teenage girl. It was the type of story that he had read before – indeed, one that seemed to populate the creepy pasta archives with frantic abandon. It was the tale of a younger, brutalised by a malicious family, tormented by bullies, driven to isolation and then striking back out at those around her. It was called ‘Loraine'Loraine the Killer', and it was utter bollocks. 
 
But it was harmless, he thought. Just an outlet for teenage angst. Some little child venting into a safe space…
Line 50:
Matt snorted. "Told the little bastard off, did you?"
 
Nodding, Toby leaned back. He had, in the start, questioned Matt about his definition of their work being ‘transformative'transformative'. It seemed to Toby that it had been a bit underhanded. That is, he had thought, taking things made by people far younger and less intelligent than themselves, mocking it, and earning a profit from it. How much of it, he had asked, were they really transforming? Matt had ensured that Toby would not ask such questions again, and when Toby had been able to walk again without the aid of a crutch, they had pushed on with making the next episode of their show. It was, Toby thought, for the best.
 
In the corner of his eye, Toby caught sight of a flicker. He looked back, dismissing his thoughts and hesitations. "Hey, guys" he said. "We've got a problem."
Line 72:
"They're all fucking SJWs" sneered Jacob.
 
Toby bit his tongue. Jacob's loathing of SJWs, a term that Jacob had co-opted to mean ‘anyone'anyone with a different socio-cultural viewpoint to his own', was all but legendary, and Jacob had ensured that everyone on their Facebook post was well aware of his feelings on the matter. "It's not any of those things" Toby said with finality. "The video hasn't been blocked or pulled, it's just gone."
 
Matt was over beside him in a minute. "The fuck do you mean ‘gone'gone'?" he barked. "I fucking swear, you little computer nerd, if I have to take my belt to you again…"
 
Pulling back in his chair, Toby pointed frantically at the screen. "Look!" he said. "Another one's gone."
Line 102:
Matt pushed Jacob away. "How many are left?" he asked.
 
"Just one" answered Toby. "And I… wait, I don't think this is one of ours. Did either of you two make a video called ‘MichaelLeroi'MichaelLeroi's Reckoning?'"
 
Gathering around, the trio stared at the screen. There was, indeed, only one remaining video, and none of them recognised it. 
Line 190:
The name sounded familiar to Toby. With a snap, he yelled out. "Hannah? You're not Hannah2006skellybones? The author of…"
 
"Yes!" she interrupted, "the author of ‘Loquacious'Loquacious the Killer.exe', the story you performed last week!"
 
Matt paced back and forth, slamming his fists into the walls with each stamping breadth across the room. "Your story was shite" he barked.
Line 240:
Just as he was about to bring it down, the screen flickered on. Matt paused, mid-swing. "No" he whispered.
 
Toby hurried over. Looking down at the screen, he caught sight of a Youtube video. Through the speakers, a soft crackling voice played. "Hello" it said, "and welcome to BAD Creepypasta. Tonight's episode is ‘Half'Half Life: Full Life Consequences' by Matt Dixon."
 
Matt dropped the chair leg. "No" he repeated, louder. "Oh god, no."
Line 250:
Shaking his head, Toby collapsed beside his friend. "No" he said, "No. You can't be. It's impossible!"
 
Sobbing pitifully, Matt bleated "It's true. I wrote ‘Half'Half Life: Full Life Consequences'. And ‘Final'Final Fantasy Seven: Story of Rain Strife'." He looked up at Toby, tears streaming from his face. "Oh god, Toby. I even wrote ‘Metal'Metal Gear Solid: Fight of Metal Gears'!"
 
Toby bit down on his lip, but even he could feel the tears welling up inside him. It had been a lie. Everything that Matt had done, every ounce of anger at the stories that they had made videos from, it had all been a lie. A lie to hide a past so awful, so shameful… Toby felt sick. Heaving, he turned from Matt and vomited.
