(**[Short Book] What is IDW for**)

***

(*Somewhere in the city "Bar-Rostok" (Rostok Plant) in the zone.*)

PashaFenko: (*a little confused about why IDW Publishing, which Sally spoke about*) Uh... Sally, why exactly "IDW Publishing"?

Vladus: (*seriously answering*) Yeah, we're not that stupid to take it. We understand about our "IDW Publishing"... And why?

SpongeBob: Yeah.

Sally Acorn: IDW publishing is a... Comic book company, who recently acquired publishing rights for Sonic the Hedgehog series. That means that they now decide which stories should be told, and which ones shouldn't. What's more, their writers and editors... Are quite bad, to put it mildly.

PashaFenko: (*a little laugh*) Haha, bad? Well, I don't know, I don't know. Maybe that's how the editors did the Sonic comics series. The one who creates it, right guys.

Vladus: Yes, but maybe they work-works and works all the time. But they still publish except for the game Vladik Burtal since 2024 from the game developer "Narko Games", the one who released it. And even Stalker 2: Heart of Chernobyl since 2024 from the game developer "GSC World Game". Well, at least they did the same every year.

PashaFenko: (*laughter*) Hah, right words, Vladus.

Vladus: (*smile*) Thank you.

Sally Acorn: (*sigh*) Guys, this isn't funny. Not one bit. I've actually read some of their stories. They're a bunch of clowns with no idea how to write a competent tale, and they've been given free reign to ruin the franchise!

PashaFenko: (*stopped laughing, calmly responded with a smile*) Oh, what are you saying, Sally, we know it's not funny. And, by the way, they're not clowns. They're just specific game developers, my God, Sally. How do you understand this, I've told you 20 times. (*calmly approach Sally Acorn and calmly patted her on the right shoulder*) And you worry about your IDW. They, of course, by the way, are not interested in some IDW Publishing and let's go become a fan of Stalker and other game themes. So don't worry about it, huh?

Sally Acorn: (*a bit annoyed by the condescending pat on the shoulder*) Look, I understand that game developers work hard, but that's not the point, alright? This isn't about them. This is about a corporation ruining a franchise with poorly written stories and awful characterizations. I know you guys might not care, but this is just... Unacceptable.

(*Sally Acorn went into her mansion to her other room.*)

PashaFenko: Hey Sally, I'm not the one who said that...

Vladus: (*a little laughter at PashaFenko*) Come on Pasha, it will heal before the wedding.

SpongeBob: (*quietly laughing that PashaFenko is Sally Acorn's lover*) Haha...

(*PashaFenko is surprised and a little annoyed that he didn't say anything about it, he turned to the side at the two jokers and started yelling obscenities.*)

PashaFenko: (*angrily swearing*) SHUT EVERYONE UP, FUCK!!!
