SOMA | The Meme Dump

JUNE

It’s a very insestuous city, Levon. Everyone working with, playing with, and loving with everyone else. I think you’ve built MemeTrade up to be more sinister than it is. MemeTrade deals are randomly generated you know. Like the wheel of the Barring Gafner old Vonnegut talked about! Its predictions are random, but so many businesses believe in them that the success is selffulfilling. Have you spoken to your trader since this blew up?

LEVON

I don't want to.

JUNE

In my limited dealings with MemeTrade, they’ve been more than fair. Their computers consider all the angles, even pointing out how I could better capitalize on the deal they offered. Strange that they would rip you off.

LEVON

They tried to kidnap me! Said I would need to go to jail to make our cover story more real.

JUNE

My, my.

LEVON

I tried to hide at Jeremy's but… he’s leaving.

JUNE

We’ll hide you good, Levon.

SARAH

We should dress him in drag, yeah?

JUNE

And I’ll help sort out this misunderstanding.
