It felt like there was really nothing else that needed to be done, anymore. G-Man had patrolled the halls of the mall with a shotgun slung over his shoulder, he checked barricades, he rummaged around the shops for any clothes that might have been overlooked, something that wasn't stained with blood, or steeped in a months worth of body odor. He fought the undying, while wondering how much time he had left as a human himself. He scavenged for food and water and clothing. He marveled at the way his skin glowed bright green, ever since fighting off the strange, evolving creature that had invaded their home.
And he waited, always waited, for the end to come, whatever that end may be.
In the meantime, with the day waning and his satisfaction over performing his days duties quite high, he decided to go and play a solo round of skeeball, just to see if he might be able to top his previous high score. Upon arrival, he did the usual preliminary stretches, really taking the time to loosen up and work out any kinks before he stepped up to begin.

Having prepared himself for the game of his life, G-Man reached out one glowing hand to scoop up a ball, rolling it forward with the smooth motion of an utter pro. The ball rolled up, jumped, and landed in the one hundred point basket, and his lips twitched up in a smug smile. Yes, the swag was still strong with him! The next couple of rolls, however, were not quite so impressive, landing him twenty points each. Oh well, no matter, he was back in the game when further rolling produced much better results. Forty pointers and a couple more one hundreds, but then a tenner to top it off when his arm began to tire, and his focus began to wane. Over all, however, he thought he had done quite well, his gaze sweeping up towards the scoreboard.
Just shy of his previous high score. He sighed in disappointment, glowing hand reaching up to push through hair that really, really needed a good washing.
But he smiled, because over all, it wasn't a bad day, and it wasn't a bad score, and he was just doing the best he could.
Until the end came.
Whatever that end may be.
point total: 430
