@RogerBW @BigJackBrass @Taskerland @Printdevil @satsuma key thing though, the player brought up the question and chose to lean into the answer. The GM played the response straight-faced in a fairly low buy-in game. Players knew each other well/had high trust, players liked riffing off each other and the GM, modern day conspiracy setting with a broad tent, open character concepts from a baker to a banker to a vampire hunter, and undergrads just having fun.

I read a post today about someone wanting to play an OSR game and then cooling on it quite rapidly because the GM presented them with a river to cross and they couldn't work out how to do it. -

Another PC asked if they collapsed to dust or something. The player fumbled and looked to the GM who said “no, they just, y’know, scream and bleed and die.” The player looks around the table shocked and says “oh no. I’m a serial killer.”
