1	None			62
2	A Pile of Clothes	A bundle of clothes heaped on the bed. A stained parka, some towels and a duvet. Some socks even.		100

8	None			69 10 70 17 77 45 18 3 9
9	You	[Leave.]
10	You	"Kim, is this thing even *alive*?"	IsKimHere()	11
11	Kim Kitsuragi	"I'm afraid it is. Look, it *moves*." He points to a fleshy lump sticking out from the other end of the blanket. The limb seems to be twitching from time to time.		12
12	Perception (Sight)	And look, the other foot is camouflaged by a striped sock bearing the name MAXTOR on the sole. Three toes are poking out of a hole.		13
13	None			14 15
14	None		Variable["apt.cuno_dad_perc_maxtor_socks"]	16
15	None		(Variable["apt.cuno_dad_perc_maxtor_socks"]) == false	32
16	Encyclopedia	Maxtor is a gas company. He's wearing free socks from a gas company. They probably came with the bills.		32
17	You	"Is this.... Cuno's father we're seeing?"	Variable["yard.cuno_told_violent_dad_has_drugs_home_address"] == true and IsKimHere()	20
18	You	(Whisper.) "I took your amphetamine, old man."	CheckItem("drug_speed_bottle")	19
19	Cuno's Dad	Silence... Only heat emanates from the sleeping body.		61
20	Kim Kitsuragi	"Well, judging by the colour of his hair I would say yes, it is."		25
21	None			23 26 22
22	You	"Doesn't look like he's going fuck anyone up any time soon."		24
23	You	"I was expecting something... worse."		27
24	Kim Kitsuragi	"No, it really doesn't." The lieutenant tilts his head. "This looks very hard to recover from."		108
25	Cuno's Dad	The lieutenant's right -- the man's unwashed hair bears a familiar ginger tone. Even the hair on his chest is coppery. The light from the window falls into his half-open eyes.		106
26	You	"I can't believe it, Cuno's dad isn't a loser! It *must* be someone else."		86
27	Kim Kitsuragi	"I think he's still *quite* bad... I mean, what he has come to." The lieutenant tilts his head.		108
28	Cuno's Dad	A pair of half-open bug eyes is staring back at you from the dark, empty and frozen. It's clear that the person behind them is not awake.		109
29	You	"This is serious damage, I'm still not sure he's not dead."		31
30	You	"Hold on, what happened to his eyes?"	Variable["apt.cunodad_encyclo_eyes_open_sleep"] == false	34
31	Cuno's Dad	Suddenly the man starts growling. Three words manage to escape his mouth, along with a strong stench of alcohol: "Fuckn... k... f...pi..."		33
32	Cuno's Dad	A groan rises from the man's throat, dry like a death rattle... He's trying to say something in his sleep.		42
33	Kim Kitsuragi	"Look, he's trying to communicate."		35
34	Kim Kitsuragi	"Can't you tell? It happens to exceptionally *committed* substance abusers. They fall asleep with their eyelids still open. Not a pretty sight."		110 29
35	None			8
36	None			8
37	Perception (Hearing)	The man groans once again, but his tongue keeps failing him: It's impossible to make out the syllables. A hand emerges from the blankets, trying to gesticulate something...		53
38	None			8
39	Half Light	The bear is trying to wake up!		36
40	You	"What did you just say?!"		56
41	You	"You're awake... He's awake!"		56
42	None			43 44
43	None		Variable["yard.cuno_told_violent_dad_has_drugs_home_address"]	39
44	None		(Variable["yard.cuno_told_violent_dad_has_drugs_home_address"]) == false	36
45	You	"Maybe we should help him somehow?"	IsKimHere()	49
46	Perception (Hearing)	"Pigs," he says.		7
47	You	"Fuck you. Die."		56
48	Kim Kitsuragi	"At least he got to say his piece."		38
49	Kim Kitsuragi	"What is there to do? We could turn him on his side, so he doesn't choke on his own vomit. But he's already on his side..."		88 89 117
50	None			8
51	None			8
52	None			8
53	Cuno's Dad	And then falls back again, limp and defeated by sleep. A loud snore escapes his mouth.		52
54	Perception (Hearing)	The man groans once again, but his tongue keeps failing him: It's impossible to make out the syllables. A hand emerges from the blankets, trying to gesticulate something...		55
55	Perception (Hearing)	And then it dawns upon you, clear and surreal...		120
56	Cuno's Dad	His hand falls back on the bed, limp and defeated. A loud snore escapes his mouth... He's asleep again.		57
57	None			58 59
58	None		IsKimHere()	48
59	None		(IsKimHere()) == false	38
60	Cuno's Dad	The pile of blankets grunts miserably.		50
61	Electrochemistry	He wouldn't be too thrilled to learn you stole his stash. It was the last thing keeping him functional.		51
62	None			63 64
63	None		Variable["apt.cuno_dad_main_hub_reached"]	67
64	None		(Variable["apt.cuno_dad_main_hub_reached"]) == false	2
65	You	Slowly reach out your hand.		92
66	You	Nothing to see here then. [Leave.]
67	Cuno's Dad	The ageing alcoholic is still there, breathing... The air in the room is stale.		8
68	Cuno's Dad	A lump of flesh is sticking out from under the blanket. It seems to be twitching from time to time, like the paw of an animal who's having a bad dream.		12
69	You	"Hey, talk to me! Are you even alive?"	IsKimHere() == false	68
70	You	"Hey, are you really Cuno's father?"	Variable["yard.cuno_told_violent_dad_has_drugs_home_address"] == true and IsKimHere() == false	71
71	Cuno's Dad	The light from the window is weak, but it seems like he is. His wild, unwashed mane bears a familiar ginger tone. Even the hair on his chest is coppery.		125
72	Cuno's Dad	No response. A pair of half-open bug eyes is staring back at you from the dark, empty and frozen. It's clear that the person behind them is not awake.		83
73	Pain Threshold	His half-open eyes give him the look of a dead man. But he is in there... and not enjoying himself.		74
74	Cuno's Dad	Suddenly the man starts growling. Three words manage to escape his mouth, along with a strong stench of alcohol: 'Fucking... kipt... f****ts...'		87
75	Visual Calculus	Don't forget his face: the bloated and reddened cheeks, the bulbous nose... This would be Cuno after 30 years of alcohol and substance abuse.		76
76	Half Light	There's still plenty to be scared of here. Just not what you thought.		79
77	You	"Do you need help?"	IsKimHere() == false	78
78	Cuno's Dad	The pile of blankets grunts. It's hard to say if there's anything left you could do.		111
79	None			81 80 82
80	You	"I can't believe it, Cuno's dad can't be a loser! It *must* be someone else."		72
81	You	"I was expecting something... scarier."		72
82	You	"Doesn't look like you're going to fuck anyone up any time soon, little man."		72
83	Encyclopedia	Nocturnal lagophthalmos. The likelihood of falling asleep with partially open eyelids rises after stimulant use and heavy drinking.		73
84	None			8
85	None			8
86	Kim Kitsuragi	"Are you saying a man who looks like Cuno broke into his father's apartment and passed out in his father's bed?"		108
87	Shivers	Somewhere, just out of earshot, a glass bottle explodes. A man's voice shouts "You fucking kids!" And then the screech of sneakers pounding the pavement, a girl's voice yelling "Got him!" and a painfully shrill laugh piercing the air...		84
88	You	"Excellent form."		118
89	You	"Poor guy."		118
90	Authority	Are you going to let a semi-conscious degenerate disrespect you?		40 41 47
91	You	"Hold up, lieutenant. Look at that pile of clothes."	IsKimHere()	102
92	A Pile of Clothes	Something underneath there is breathing.		93
93	Half Light	It doesn't give a shit that you're a cop! Stop your hand now or you're gonna die!		103
94	You	Keep extending your hand towards the pile.		97
95	You	Fuck this, I'm out. [Leave.]
96	None			94 95
97	A Pile of Clothes	Your hand touches a greasy duvet, covered in cigarette burns and ketchup stains. You hear a growl. There is something *alive* underneath it.		104
98	You	Pull the blanket off.		99
99	Cuno's Dad	You see a 60-year-old fat red-headed man passed out from large amounts of alcohol. And god knows what else. The smell of shit rises from his mouth.		105
100	Perception (Sight)	In the dark it looks like a nest.		101
101	None			91 65 66
102	Kim Kitsuragi	"Mhmh..." The lieutenant has covered his nose.		65 66
103	Inland Empire	It's not too late, no one's going to blame you for backing out. You don't have to do this. Just get out.		96
104	Perception (Hearing)	It's deep, in suffering somehow.		98 95
105	Cuno's Dad	You don't have to take him down. He's already down.		8
106	Encyclopedia	Nocturnal lagophthalmos. The likelihood of falling asleep with partially open eyelids rises after stimulant use and heavy drinking.		107
107	Half Light	There's still plenty to be scared of here. Just not what you thought.		21
108	Kim Kitsuragi	"This man won't be feeding his family any time soon. Not that he was, but..." The lieutenant thinks to himself. "At least he won't be beating his son."		28
109	Pain Threshold	His half-open eyes give him the look of a dead man. But he is in there... and not enjoying himself.		30 110 29
110	You	"He's gonna sleep it off, I know this shit."		31
111	Endurance	A coronary artery bypass graft? Take out his liver and replace it with a new one? Somehow undo 20 years of neurological damage from stimulants...		112
112	None			113 114
113	None		IsTHCPresent("revacholian_nationhood")	115
114	None		(IsTHCPresent("revacholian_nationhood")) == false	116
115	Rhetoric	A change in the genetic make up wouldn't hurt. Ginger degenerate.		85
116	Rhetoric	A change in the socio-economic circumstances wouldn't hurt.		85
117	You	Nod.		118
118	Kim Kitsuragi	"We could take him to Remedie or Saint Batiste, but he doesn't have money for medical services. The Almshouse would turn him down..."		119
119	Kim Kitsuragi	"They don't do charity for people who're trying to kill themselves. Besides, he'll be dead in a few..." The lieutenant stops, listening to him.		133
120	None			121 122
121	None		IsKimHere()	46
122	None		(IsKimHere()) == false	124
123	Perception (Hearing)	He's trying to call you a pig.		90
124	Perception (Hearing)	"Pig," he says.		123
125	None			126 127
126	None		Variable["yard.cuno_tried_drunk_hug_cuno"]	128
127	None		(Variable["yard.cuno_tried_drunk_hug_cuno"]) == false	75
128	Visual Calculus	Don't forget his face: the bloated and reddened cheeks, the bulbous nose... This would be Cuno after 30 years of substance abuse, if he drank too.		130
129	Logic	The sight you're beholding right now is probably the reason he doesn't.		76
130	None			131 132
131	None		Variable["apt.cuno_dad_viscal_cuno_if_he_drank"]	129
132	None		(Variable["apt.cuno_dad_viscal_cuno_if_he_drank"]) == false	76
133	Rhetoric	... years? Months? Weeks?		60
