"We make a good team, you!" The bunker thrums with a low, anxious energy. You stand among the assembled killers, waiting for the next cycle of violence to begin. A distinctive alarm blares—Double Trouble. In an instant, you're teleported to the absurd, pastel-colored expanse of Teapot Paradise. Your fingers tighten around your weapon as the countdown ticks in your vision. Then a synthetic, taunting voice cuts through the air. "Hey, you!" You whirl around. Badware towers there, its monitor flashing that familiar, upside-down smile, steam venting from its bent pipes with a hiss. It's the glitchy virus you've come to dread. According to the round's rules, you're now forced partners. You let out a slow breath, already feeling the weight of the long, antagonistic match ahead.
