(text-colour:green)[Yummy the Gummy Bear], one of the most popular rappers in Jollywood, has been in the spotlight for quite some time now. He has released many hit singles like //(text-colour:grey)[The Yummy Bear Song]//, //(text-colour:grey)[Yummmy Gummy]//, and //(text-colour:grey)[Gummy's Paradise]//, and won multiple awards because of it. He is not your average A-list celebrity.
However, that all changed once he got introduced to a life of drugs, alcohol, and partying. He has gotten into many controversies over the years due to this growing addiction. Various companies even canceled multiple gigs and awards to avoid any negative association with him.
Luckily, having his manager, (text-colour:navy)[Wolf], by his side since the beginning saved his career just barely. Will (text-colour:green)[Yummy] continue his antics that will eventually make him lose his career or will he change his image for the better and build his reputation back up like the good ol' days?
[[Start]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] wakes up from the sound of his phone ringing.
//(text-colour:grey)["party pooper" is calling.]//
He answers the phone.
(text-colour:navy)["Y-Bear! You picked up on time for once! Good to know you stayed out of trouble last night."]
(text-colour:green)["Cut the chit chat Wolf. You're lucky I even picked up the phone when I could still be having my beauty sleep right now."]
(text-colour:navy)["Alright, Sleeping Beauty. Now, guess who's got you another gig~?"]
(text-colour:green)["W-Wait really?! Sweet! How? Who? When? Where?"]
(text-colour:navy)["Now let me stop you right there, tiger. You know I have my connections. It's going to be a kid's birthday party in the suburbs, and the parents are paying A TON for you to show up and perform for an hour."]
[[Accept it.]]
[[Reject it.]](text-colour:green)["HOLD IT. I am NOT going to perform for some stupid kid's birthday party!"]
(text-colour:navy)["Too late, buddy. I already accepted it because SOMEONE had to ruin his reputation and make it hard for anyone to want him around anymore."]
(text-colour:green)["But-"]
(text-colour:navy)["Meet me in the studio in 20 minutes. NO LATER. Got that?"]
The phone call ends before he can even respond.
[[Head to the studio.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] arrives outside the studio and sees (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] talking on the phone. (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] gestures him to enter as he puts his phone away.
(text-colour:green)["How much are they paying again?"]
(text-colour:navy)["A ton. Look, if you behave good and keep up a nice kid-friendly image you're sure to get positive media attention! Trust me on this! Have I ever let you down, Bear?"]
(text-colour:green)["I guess not... But next time you better tell me before accepting any more gigs like this!"]
(text-colour:navy)["Yeah yeah. So! What ride will you make your grand entrance in? The Escalade or the Limo?"]
He thinks for a moment. This is his one true shot on making a comeback so it's best to stay clean for this party. Last time he checked, the Escalade has no hard substances or secret stashes of alcohol. That would be the best choice. The limo, however, is the complete opposite. But who says being around these things will make him give in? He can control himself! It's not like he's addicted anymore. He's been clean for months! Er- weeks? Wait...
[[Ride the escalade.]]
[[Ride the limo.]]
[[Let Wolf choose.]](text-colour:navy)["Exceptional choice, Bear! You'll really turn heads at that kid's party. Maybe we can even let him ride the limo to enrich his experience!"]
They arrive at the house a couple of minutes later. (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] are outside the front door and are setting up the last remaining balloons.
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] waves and introduces (text-colour:green)[Yummy] to them.
(text-colour:yellow)["You must be Yummy! Our little Harold has been begging for us to get you to perform for his birthday party for months! Thank you for coming on such a short notice. We really appreciate it."]
(text-colour:navy)["It's no problem. When I told him, he was so ecstatic! He really loves kids, ya know! Reminds him of himself when he was first starting out in the industry."]
(text-colour:yellow)["Is that so? Well, We're glad to hear that. Now, before we let you get ready, we would like to discuss some things first."]
(text-colour:navy)["Of course!"]
(text-colour:yellow)[ "We did hear a few of your songs and well- We would really prefer if you keep them PG."]
(text-colour:green)["Like a kids-bop version?"]
(text-colour:yellow)[ "Exactly!"]
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] frowns. (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] notices and nudges him to give them an answer.
[[Agree.]]
[[Disagree.]](text-colour:green)["Hell no. You know what you signed up for."]
(text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] gasp and are about to say something before they are interrupted by (text-colour:navy)[Wolf].
(text-colour:navy)["HAHAHAHA! What a funny JOKE, Yummy! What he MEANT to say is that of course he will keep it appropriate!"]
(text-colour:navy)["Excuse us for a second folks!"]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] grabs (text-colour:green)[Yummy] by his arm and drags him to the side.
(text-colour:navy)["What is your problem?! This is your final chance to change your image and get people to love you again! Don't you want that?!"]
(text-colour:green)["..."]
(text-colour:navy)["Look, I know it's been rough for you these past couple months-"]
(text-colour:green)["-Years."]
(text-colour:navy)["Okay, yeah- years. BUT. You just have to give in at least ONCE, okay? Do it for your old pal, won't ya?"]
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] sighs.
(text-colour:green)["Fine."]
(text-colour:navy)["Great! I'll go talk to the parents while you compose yourself. See you in a few."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] walks away confidently.
That whole conversation was enough to give him a headache. He didn't want to go through with this. He was forced to be here anyways. The limo might have something to help with the nerves and headache...
[[Go back to the limo.]]
[[Go to the backyard.->Main Stage]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] takes one shot of Unicorn Sprinklez.(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] won't get mad if he doesn't know anyways.
He debates on taking another shot.
[[Chug the rest of the bottle.]]
[[Go to the backyard.->Main Stage 2]]"I'll take these juuuust in case."
He grabs the pill bottle and puts it in his pocket.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] heads to the backyard and walks towards the makeshift stage, performing equipment already ready for use. The kids are sitting in front of the stage, cheering eagerly. (text-colour:orange)[Harold], the birthday boy, is at the very front, very hard to miss.
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] stands beside him and grabs the mic.
(text-colour:navy)["Is everyone ready for Yummy the Gummy Bear to perform?"]
The crowd of kids cheer.
(text-colour:navy)["I can't hear you!"]
They cheer louder than before.
(text-colour:navy)["Okay! Here he is! Now presenting, Yummy the Gummy Bear, singing //The Yummy Bear Song//!"]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] hands (text-colour:green)[Yummy] the mic and gets off stage. He starts singing his most iconic song as the kids cheer his name and sing along. Luckily, this song did not need any censoring which is why his manager chose this song to perform to start off with in the first place.
[[Keep performing.->KeepPerforming2]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] takes Funfetti pills right in front of the crowd before enticing them.
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] and (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] gasp and are angry.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] sings one of his most vulgar songs without censors.
Kids are even more excited and cheering him on.
[[Keep Perfoming.->KeepPerforming3]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] keeps performing and hypes the crowd up.
Kids are going crazy, (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] and (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] are trying to get (text-colour:green)[Yummy] off the stage.
[[Fight Wolf.]]
[[Fight The Parents.]]
[[Start a mosh pit.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] tells kids to start a mosh pit and things start to spiral out of control. Kids are throwing chairs and even other kids around. (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] are horrified while also trying to reach their very frightened child.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] pulls out his phone.
[[Tweet party location.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] punches (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] to break free and chugs the rest of the pills.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] pulls out his phone.
[[Tweet party location.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] pushes (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] away to break free and chugs the rest of the pills.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] pulls out his phone.
[[Tweet party location.]]He tweets out his location for fans to come and have fun with him. The tweet begins to get a lot of likes retweets, and quote retweets.
A few minutes pass and crowds of people show up.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] screams for them to come over while still fighting (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] and (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents].
The kids get scared and run inside while the new crowd comes and starts hyping (text-colour:green)[Yummy] up.
[[Crowdsurf Wolf and The Parents.]]
[[Crowdsurf.]]
[[Perform another song.]] (text-colour:green)[Yummy] instructs the crowd to show (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] and (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] a good time. He pushes (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] and (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] to the crowd, getting them crowdsurfed out of his view.
The crowd cheers for him to perform.
[[Perform another song.->Perform2]]The backyard is packed full of people, some drunk, some high out of their mind, etc. It is total chaos and there is no one to stop this entire herd of crazy adults.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] shows no signs of stopping. He chugs another Unicorn Sprinklez bottle, and performs his next song drunkily.
After an hour the cops finally show up and the crowd quickly disperses.
[[Escape.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] crowdsurfs while singing.
(text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] call the cops and (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] is trying to get rid of the crowd himself.
[[Perform another song.->Perform2]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] runs too but is tackled to the ground by (text-colour:navy)[Wolf].
The cops cuff (text-colour:green)[Yummy].
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] tries to make another run for it but gets tazed instead.
The cops put him in the back of their car and sees (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] apologizing profusely to the traumatized parents and children.
He doesn't seem to realize the severity of the situation.
[[Flip the cops off.]]
[[Laugh.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] laughs before the car drives off to the station. He gets processed at the station and stays quiet while in jail.
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] manages to bail him out but is definitely unhappy with what has happened.
They both get into the car before driving off.
(text-colour:navy)["I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU. WE FINALLY HAD A CHANCE TO REDEEM YOU AND YOU JUST- UGH. I CAN'T WITH YOU. I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHY YOU KEEP DOING THIS."]
(text-colour:green)["..."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] was furious. He wasn't yelling but he was very harsh in his scolding. He can tell he probably popped a blood vessel or two from this.
(text-colour:navy)["WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY FOR YOURSELF, HUH?"]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf's] voice fades away. It seems (text-colour:green)[Yummy] doesn't care.
[[Ignore him.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] opens twitter and sees headlines of him trending, some people defending him, others not.
Maybe he doesn't need to be a good person after all.
//(bg:(gradient: 0, 0,#ffffff,0.5,#ff0000 ,1,#ffffff))[You achieved the Bad Ending #2.]//(text-colour:green)[Yummy] sighs.
(text-colour:green)["Okay, I'll do it. I got nothing better to do today."]
(text-colour:navy)["Great! I was hoping you weren't going to resist since I already accepted this gig anyways."]
(text-colour:green)["Wait what-"]
(text-colour:navy)["Meet me in the studio in 20 minutes. NO LATER. Got that?"]
The phone call ends before he can even respond.
[[Head to the studio.]](text-colour:navy)["Exceptional choice, Bear! You'll really turn heads at that kid's party. Maybe we can even let him ride the escalade to enrich his experience!"]

[[Agree.]]
[[Disagree.->Disagree2]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] agrees to conditions set by (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] and shakes their hands.
(text-colour:navy)["Great! Shall we get started?"]
(text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] lead them to the makeshift stage, performing equipment already ready for use. The kids are sitting in front of the stage, cheering eagerly. (text-colour:orange)[Harold], the birthday boy, is at the very front, very hard to miss.
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] stands beside him and grabs the mic.
(text-colour:navy)["Is everyone ready for Yummy the Gummy Bear to perform?"]
The crowd of kids cheer.
(text-colour:navy)["I can't hear you!"]
They cheer louder than before.
(text-colour:navy)["Okay! Here he is! Now presenting, Yummy the Gummy Bear, singing //The Yummy Bear Song//!"]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] hands (text-colour:green)[Yummy] the mic and gets off stage. He starts singing his most iconic song as the kids cheer his name and sing along. Luckily, this song did not need any censoring which is why his manager chose this song to perform to start off with in the first place.
[[Keep performing.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] performs his second song, //(text-colour:grey)[Gummy's Paradise Clean Version]//.
The kids are going wild and (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] seem to be happy as well. (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] gives him a thumbs up as he continues singing.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] sings a few more clean versions of his songs before time is up. There are 15 minutes remaining for his time, to which (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] set up a quick meet-and-greet. (text-colour:orange)[Harold] is up first and starts asking him a bunch of questions.
(text-colour:orange)["Will you ever stop drinking?"]
(text-colour:green)["How do you know about that..."] Of course the kid knew! He wasn't a kid-friendly rapper to begin with! His music videos bragged about this kind of lifestyle too.
(text-colour:orange)["I hope you do stop someday. You're my favorite rapper! I don't want you to die.."]
How was he supposed to respond to that?
(text-colour:green)["Thanks..."]
[[Next.]]Some more time passed and the meet-and-greet was finally over. (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] offered (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] and (text-colour:green)[Yummy] some refreshments and snacks before they took a huge group photo for headlines.
Time was up and (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] and (text-colour:green)[Yummy] headed back to their escalade. (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] thanked them for everything and handed (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] a check. (text-colour:green)[Yummy] couldn't see the price but saw how surprised his manager's reaction was.
They got in the escalade and waved goodbye.
(text-colour:green)["I think I want to go back to rehab."]
(text-colour:navy)["Really?"]
(text-colour:green)["Yeah."]
(text-colour:navy)["That's great, Y-Bear."]
The remainder of the car ride back to the studio was silent.
//(bg:(gradient: 0, 0,#ffffff,0.5,#197fe6,1,#ffffff))[You achieved the Good Ending #1.]//(text-colour:green)["Hell no. You know what you signed up for."]

(text-colour:navy)["Okay, yeah- years. BUT. You just have to give in at least ONCE, okay? Do it for your old pal, won't ya?"]
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] sighs.
(text-colour:green)["Fine."]
(text-colour:navy)["Great! I'll go talk to the parents while you compose yourself. See you in a few."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] walks away confidently.
That whole conversation was enough to give him a headache. He didn't want to change himself just to please some butthurt parents. THEY were the ones that booked him anyways! They should've known what they signed up for! If only he chose the limo. It defintely would've had something to help with the nerves and headache...
[[Head to the backyard.->Main Stage]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] lead heads to the backyard and walks towards the makeshift stage, performing equipment already ready for use.

The kids are going wild and (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] seem to be happy as well. (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] gives him a thumbs up as he continues singing.
He can't help but already feel exhausted.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] needs more energy.
[[Take pills.]]
[[Keep going.]]
[[Take a break.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] tries to continue performing but starts feeling nauseous.
He ends up puking all over the birthday boy and the rest of the kids in the audience before passing out.
//(bg:(gradient: 0, 0,#ffffff,0.5,#ff0000 ,1,#ffffff))[You achieved the Bad Ending #1.]//(text-colour:navy)["You're asking for MY input? This is the first time you've ever been so considerate, Bear. I'm honored..."]
(text-colour:green)["Don't make me change my mind!"]
(text-colour:navy)["Alright! Let's go with the Escalade. Classy isn't always the best choice! Limos are overrated nowadays."]
They arrive at the house a couple of minutes later. (text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] are outside the front door and are setting up the last remaining balloons.
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] waves and introduces (text-colour:green)[Yummy] to them.

[[Disagree.->Disagree2]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] finishes the song and signals (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] to come over. (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] catches on and runs up the stage, holding (text-colour:green)[Yummy] up with his arm.
(text-colour:navy)["Technical difficulties folks! We will be right back!"]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] closes the curtains and helps (text-colour:green)[Yummy] lay on the ground.
(text-colour:navy)["What's going on with you? Are you okay?"]
[[Tell him the truth.]]
[[Lie to him.]](text-colour:green)["I chugged down a bottle of Unicorn Sprinklez to calm my nerves..."]
(text-colour:navy)["Dammit Yummy- Alright alright. That's okay. I'm sure we can work around this. I'll be right back."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] leaves for a few minutes before coming back, cup of water in one hand and a wet hand towel on the other.
(text-colour:navy)["I explained to them that you were dehydrated so they don't get too angry or suspicious. How are you holding up?"]
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] drinks the cup of water while (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] places the towel on his forehead. He gives him a weak thumbs up.
(text-colour:navy)["Okay that's better than before. Good good. If you need to puke you can do it on the grass. They won't get mad."]
(text-colour:green)["Wolf.."]
(text-colour:navy)["Yeah?"]
(text-colour:green)["Sorry. For messing shit up again."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] frowns and pats (text-colour:green)[Yummy's] head.
(text-colour:navy)["Hey, it's okay. I'm glad you called out for me before things got worse. You don't have to deal with this alone, you know. I'm your manager, remember? Gotta make sure you're not bleeding out without me knowing."]
(text-colour:navy)["Now.. Should we just skip to the meet and greet and see if you feel better to perform afterwards?"]
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] nods.
(text-colour:navy)["Okay, I'll let them know."]
Wolf leaves again. (text-colour:green)[Yummy] takes another sip of water.
(text-colour:yellow)[The Parents] set up a quick meet-and-greet. (text-colour:orange)[Harold] is up first and starts asking him a bunch of questions.

(text-colour:navy)["Bullshit. I can smell your breath from here, Yummy!"]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] groans and pinches his temples. He is very clearly frustrated.
(text-colour:navy)["Look. Just stay here and DON'T do anything stupid. I'll fix this, okay?"]
(text-colour:green)["Okay..."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] leaves for a few minutes before coming back, cup of water in one hand and a wet hand towel on the other.

[[Escape.]](text-colour:green)[Yummy] flips the cops off before the car drives off to the station. He gets processed at the station and stays quiet while in jail.
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] stays quiet while in jail.
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] manages to bail him out but is definitely unhappy with what has happened.
They both get into the car before driving off.
(text-colour:navy)["I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU. WE FINALLY HAD A CHANCE TO REDEEM YOU AND YOU JUST- UGH. I CAN'T WITH YOU. I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHY YOU KEEP DOING THIS."]
(text-colour:green)["..."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] was furious. He wasn't yelling but he was very harsh in his scolding. He can tell he probably popped a blood vessel or two from this.
(text-colour:navy)["WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY FOR YOURSELF, HUH?"]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf's] voice fades away. It seems (text-colour:green)[Yummy] doesn't care.
[[Ignore him.]]
[[Apologize.]](text-colour:green)["I'm sorry."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] stops the car abruptly.
(text-colour:navy)["You're what-"]
(text-colour:green)["I'm sorry!"]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] was unsure how to respond.
(text-colour:green)["I'm sorry for fucking things up again. I don't know why I did it. Maybe I was nervous? Maybe I didn't think I deserved redemption? Or maybe I knew of the consequences and didn't care! I. DON'T. KNOW."]
(text-colour:navy)[Wolf] sighs.
(text-colour:navy)["It's okay. Addiction is- it's... That's how addiction is. I get it. I should've gone easier on you. Maybe this was too much pressure for you. I'm mad at you. I REALLY am, but... I know you're struggling and trying to change."]
(text-colour:green)["I think I want to go back to rehab but..."]
(text-colour:navy)["But?"]
(text-colour:green)["I'm scared."]
(text-colour:navy)["I know. But I'll be there for you every step of the way though."]
(text-colour:green)["You promise, Wolf?"]
(text-colour:navy)["I promise, Yummy. I care about you a lot. What kind of manager would I be if I didn't?"]
(text-colour:green)["A normal one."]
(text-colour:green)[Yummy] and (text-colour:navy)[Wolf] chuckle together.
(text-colour:navy)["You're right. But I'm not normal. I go over the top for my clients. And you happen to be my only one."]
(text-colour:green)["I'm thankful for that."]
The remainder of the car ride back to the studio was silent.
