I sink into a vent just as Yellow enters. They didn't see me, thankfully. I begin crawling to Medbay, only to bump into Pink in the vents.
"Psst. Hey, Pink," I whisper. "Can we talk real quick?"
"Sure, but make it quick - I've got my eye on Green."
"It's about that... can we call it quits? Just stop the kills? I've actually made friends with one of them... and you killed one that I had just befriended."
"You mean Red?" they grunt. "Saw me vent. It was a necessity."
"Yeah... just... can't we just let them finish the tasks? If we seem like we're doing tasks too, they won't suspect us."
"Look at the task bar already, mate." We both look up. "It's past halfway. We can still win this thing." They begin crawling in the direction of Navigation.
"But... but that's what I'm trying to say. We can just let them win instead of killing them all off." I follow them, and hear their sigh. We pop out of the vent into an empty Navigation Room.
"Okay, mate, let me get this straight. You want to stop killing the crewmates because you've made them your friends." They stare at me.
"Yes," I reply, relieved they finally get it.
They punch me in the face, and I fall flat. I look up, and stare down the barrel of a gun. "This is my solution to your problem," they shrug.

Well, I didn't say success was part of the plan. I like how this got slightly meta!
