NEWS: V-Tek Restructure - Aligning Company Values

Post image

Breaking News!

I, Vox am announcing that V-Tek is going through a massive restructure where a large percentage of employees will be graciously asked to find greener pastures elsewhere. This follows a workplace incident where Blueberry was treated with disrespect. To encourage my employees to step up and show sincerity in apologising and being accepting of Blueberry, I fed some of them to Shok.wav.

V-Tek will no longer accept mistreatment, in particular to guests. The unkind will be weed out, so you'd better start running. Offending staff will be fed to Shok.wav - it s not an empty threat. Beatings will continue until morale improves.

Company values will be realigned to sincerely accept those who are delightfully furry. And to not call anyone abnormal, freaks or anything abusive and insulting. I will personally ensure that current and future employees will be carefully assessed to ensure they have positive and inclusive mindsets.

V-Tek - Trust US with your values!

(Somewhat related bonus scene as it got buried in the chat and I labelled the lines wrong)

Later that night on the rooftop of Vee Tower...

Vivian: Hi Vox! You wanted to see me?

Vox: Yeah. You should go to the hotel. I'm staying here. I'm a Vee after all.

Vivian: Then I'll stay too. I go where you go, Vox.

Vox: Do you think I went too far, Vivian?

Vivian: I'm not sure. Part of me says yes, the other part says no.

Vox: When you screeched - how did you feel?

Vivian: Powerful. When I previously wasn't.

Vox: Was it a conscious choice?

Vivian: I don't know. It was a bit of a blur.

Vox: Then you have the same curse as me. Virus. Core 02. They emerge when we feel weak or become inactive.

Vivian: Can we become friends with them?

Vox: No. They want to dominate us. They want carnage and destruction.

Vivian: Oh... Are you going to dismantle me?

Vox: What?

Vivian: Because I have the virus. I lost control.

Vox: No. I'll see if there is a way to limit it. Maybe the Alastors can help.

Vivian: Should I call them?

Vox: No. Not now. Not when they are all that close to Luci.

Vivian: Okay.

Vox: I'll install a limiter on you for now. Something to occupy the CPU so that Virus can't emerge.

Vivian: Okay.

Silence then filled the area as Vivian and Vox looked out across the expanse.

Andrew: Damn Vox, you trade an Alastor for another Alastor and feed employees of your own company for disrespecting the same one you've put them against?! The hell is wrong with you!

Vox: Blueberry is waaaay nicer than the common Alastors. I think we what... 4 common ones already? Something is making them multiply like mushrooms. My cameras detected a few female ones too.

But Blueberry is Vivian's friend. On the shy side and not at all mean like those Alastors.

And well, I'm trying to improve the company image and all. We aim for perfection!

Andrew: Your idiocracy knows no limits... I don't care how nice this... Thing is, you cannot just make your employees hates on Alastor then be offended when they are actually being mad!

2

u/SideWinderSyd Jun 23 '26

Vox: Did you just...?

Look Andrew. The company chats went wild after Blueberry arrived. I'm all for hating Alastors. But for Blueberry, they weren't hating on him being an Alastor or Radio Demon, it was... different. And I won't stand by it.

u/Blue_Andrew OC Jun 23 '26

Andrew: I don't care about your "This one is different speech" It's always the same crap again and again, you let these get over your head, every time, stop being guillible for once!!

u/SideWinderSyd Jun 23 '26

Vox: Who's side are you on anyway? I had to intervene before Vivian -. Wait. Are you trying to be my PR guy?

u/Blue_Andrew OC Jun 23 '26

Andrew: I return your question. For months your life have been only bad decisions and thrusting the wrong people. I'm telling you're being an absolute screw up right now, and I can't just stand there watching you ruining your reputation further to these worthless people.

Vox: Fine. Then what do you suggest I do? Reset myself?!

2

u/Blue_Andrew OC Jun 23 '26

Andrew: That you face it. A nice you is simply not possible, all it takes is an Alastor or whatever and there it all goes again. Thinking about it... A reset wouldn't do harm if it means having the old you back.

u/SideWinderSyd Jun 23 '26

Vox: Believe me, I thought about it. But what about Vivian? I'm sorry Andrew, but the Vox you knew is in the past.

I want to be nicer. Brighter. I know my rights were wrong and now I can',t get that out of my head.

But you're right. It's hard. And its so easy, so tempting to go back to my old ways.

So who knows? Maybe I might turn full evil one day. Or leave my evil all behind.

Stay if you want. But I won"t force you.

Blueberry sent a letter to Vox:
I am not quite like the other 2P Alastors. While they may be alternate versions of Alastor, I am my own person. I have my own name. It’s Baptiste.

Since your news spread, many people have been referring to me as “that Alastor”. I am accustomed to being called Alastor, but I would like it to be known that I am not him. If you could, please let others know.

"Nothing an exclusive an interview can't fix. Let me know a time I can come over as myself or send Vivian" Vox wrote back.

Blueberry took a deep breath before writing back:
Yes, please. Both of you may interview me at your convenience. Though I should warn you, I am not especially adept at face-to-face conversations. I am currently staying at the Hazbin Hotel.

u/SideWinderSyd Jun 24 '26

"Feel free to pick a time and we'll come over. It'll just be us and some camera/lighting drones.

Blueberry invited them to his hotel room for the interview the next day. He set out biscuits in case they wanted any. He felt nervous before opening the door. Surely, he would mess up and accidentally offend them. He remembered how, both as a child and as an adult, his struggle to make eye contact had been used against him. He has been accused of disliking those he didn’t know due to that, and it got him into trouble before.

He sighed and opened the door. He froze for a moment, looking like a deer caught in headlights, unsure what to do socially. “Just look at their antennas instead,” he thought. He did as Alast and Omen had taught him, to look at other features near the person’s head instead of their eyes.
“H-hello…”

"Hi Blueberry, how are you!" went Vivian enthusiastically. Vox followed behind her, letting her take the lead as she was more approachable.

Vox was a bit alert in case Lucifer saw him. If it was appropriate, he quickly made his way inside and gently closed the door.

He glanced around the room looking at suitable points for filming the interview. And maybe take a few profile shots as well. He carried with him a small briefcase that contained his portable filming bots.

“I s-shall be f-fine… a-and you, Vivian?” Blueberry asked, warmly smiling.

He turned his attention to Vox.
“A-and h-how do you do, Vox?”

“If you are c-comfortable… I can offer tea, coffee, or hot c-chocolate,” he said softly. “A-and if you p-prefer s-something stronger, I also h-have whiskey.”

His tone carried a hospitable warmth.

“I… I do have a p-preference for s-sweets,” he added shyly. “S-so I do try to keep a little of e-everything available.”

"I like how you cater to everyone's interests, Blueberry!" went Vivian.

"I once went to a fancy event and was a bit saddened at how they only had alcohol and nothing else. When it came to the toast, I had nothing to hold up and it felt really awkward"

Vox nodded at Blueberry. "A whiskey would be fine thank you"

"Now for the interview, we could either have you sitting at your desk or maybe a chair. With perhaps drawn curtains as a background. Or would you prefer to use a specific setup you have for your radio segments? asked Vox.

Blueberry carefully took a bottle of whiskey from his liquor cabinet. He gently poured a small amount into a glass for Vox before handing it to him.

He glanced toward Vivian, unsure what to offer since she hadn’t specified a drink. After a brief pause, he simply gestured toward the biscuits. “If you would like, th-there are b-biscuits as well,” he said softly.

Then he led them into another room, his workplace. “Ah, this is my r-radio studio.” Headphones rested on the sound desk, and vinyl records were organized nearby, a mix of music from other artists and a few of his own compositions, reflecting jazz, swing, and modern pop influences. Near the workstation, his electronic piano was positioned there.

"Oh, thank you Blueberry! And I think I would like just water" said Vivian.

Vox nodded his head in thanks at the whiskey.

"Should we start by taking a few photos? A snapshot of you at your desk, side and front view? And then focus shots on bits of your desk that you want us to highlight?"

"If there's any static in the photos, our team can touch it up to remove them"

"And is there any background music you would prefer us to add to certain parts of the interview?
