Line 35:
All out of options, I shoved the entire cabinet over, so that the screen faced the floor. I decided that I would just ignore its existence and go to sleep. After all, I had a long day. So I tucked myself into bed and said hello to the world of dreams. Only these dreams were not welcoming. I had one dream in which the Pac-Man design featured on the side of the original arcade cabinet was being skinned alive. It led to another dream where all of the ghosts were sobbing in a black void. I woke up crying myself, but it was immediately interrupted by fear.
Looming over my bed was the arcade cabinet. I screamed. I kicked it over and ran. I couldn’t even escape that wretched abomination in my sleep. I had only one choice. I started work on a cryogenic freeze chamber that would keep me in a permanent sleep until unlocked by another person. I took refuge in the fact that the cabinet didn’t have the fingers to do that. But before I began my eternal slumber, I wrote a sticky note and placed it on the outside of the chamber.
“To whomever may read this.<br />▼
<br />
Please only wake me when there comes a future where this Pac-Man machine doesn’t exist. The human race will tear itself apart if this machine continues on, and I do not wish to witness such a sad destruction. Perhaps one day, the world can find an answer to end such a tragedy. I place my trust in you, the reader of this note, to help cultivate a better world for the people of tomorrow. A tomorrow I can look forward to waking up to.<br />▼
