I don't... think they are? But I guess I don't know who played whatever version of Sgrub made my universe before the scratch. Maybe the trolls from Beforus knew, but it's not like I can ask them now.
It would take a great deal of power to construct the 'game' you described to me. If the Horrorterrors are a part of it, then surely the creator must be more powerful still.

[He's definitely growing agitated, but he's still petting the Cat. It's oddly soothing.]
[He has his doubts about this, but it's sort of hard to argue when there's a cat purring all over you, harder still when your opponent is a cat. Goddammit, Pounce, this is cheating.]

We're not going to stay here all day, are we? Because I, uh, kind of want to get the fuck out of this place for a while.
