TB

A Barbie in the Margot Barbie Dream House.

## #1 - Dear Bestie

> *It’s been a while since I’ve called you that, hasn’t it bestie?*
>

MC first arrived in Barubido on a bus, and was thirsty so she went to The Bus Bar. When she asked the Ken working behind the bar if they had any water, he laughed and said "You're in Barubido now, we only serve Tonto here." Sachiko then attracted her attention and introduced herself by saying "Hi, I'm Sachiko.

> *"I’ve loved women for as long as I’ve known what love feels like, haven’t I bestie?"*
>

Sachiko accidentally caught MC in the alley while she was kissing another Margot Barbie. “You’re a lesbian?!” she asked me with eyes wide with shock.

> *“No man can satisfy her,” the Margot I was kissing giggled. The other Margot was referencing a common Barubido phrase, but I didn’t know its origin.*
>

MC was there when Sachiko that night.

> *“Do you think that Ken at the grocery store likes me?” Sachiko asked with the innocent anticipation of a little puppy. It was traumatic for me, not least because I was there that night. A pink corvette pulled up on us the near where Alan Street meets Pink Boulevard. 5 shots rang out. One went through my left elbow, and I fell to the ground in a daze.*

Sachiko was killed during the shooting.

## #2 - The Deli

Hospitalised by theSachiko shooting, MC was visited by all of the Margots from the Margot Barbie Dream House.

> “How old was the corvette?” they’d ask. ”What shade of pink? Could you see the shooter?” But I knew that time was up for the Flame Barbies, especially That Bitch. I told the Margots that the Flame Barbie that killed Sachiko was That Bitch.

As a result of MC's certainty that**TB** killed Sachiko, the Margots decide that she should be the one to kill **TB** in retalliation. She goes to the deli on Blaze Street on the corner with Flare Avenue, and confronts **TB** in the alley.

> *“*Go lower, go lower!” I screamed at the top of my lungs. That Bitch cowered from my cocked and loaded revolver. “To the floor!” “I think I finally understand Barubido now,” That Bitch said through the tears. “No more talking.” I blurted out, interrupting That Bitch, and I finally plucked up the courage to pull the trigger..

MC shoots**TB** in the head. Although this satisfies the other Margots that there has been sufficient retribution for the death of Sachiko, MC knows the truth, which is that **TB** couldn't have killed Sachiko because the shooter's car was playing Deli by Ice Spice.

> They can’t have done it, because... Only Ice Barbies listen to Ice Spice….
>

## #3 - Unmistakably

> You didn’t think I’d shoot, did you bestie?I turned away from That Bitch in the alley, the smoke still billowing from the barrel of my Smith & Wesson. There’s no other way I can say it, bestie. That Bitch was definitely… Absolutely… Unmistakably… *Dead*…
>

MC reveals that **TBwas** her "oldest and closest friend", but she still felt nothing as a result of killing her. As a result of her guilt she decides to write **TB** a letter and have it secretly dropped into TB's grave at her funeral.

> *There are still a few Flame Barbies who owe me a favour, and one that I’d trust with my life said she would wait until they’re lowering your coffin down and drop this sealed letter in with you.*
