YMMV / With Apologies to Harlan Ellison

• Complete Monster: The Announcer is a sadistic computer put in charge of managing the battles between the RED and BLU teams, but it grew disdainful of humans and captured both teams, executing every member in the latter. She then lies to the RED team that it wiped out the rest of humanity in a nuclear apocalypse and decides to torture them for 113 years. During that time, the Announcer rips out Scout's tongue; experiments on Heavy and Medic by once fusing them together; blinds Demoman repeatedly; torments Soldier to total insanity; and changes the form of Spy constantly, subjecting him to extensive physical torture. Eventually, the Announcer entertains herself by presenting them with Pyro, who's been turned into a woman. She tries to get them to kill each other for the right to rape and procreate with Pyro in the hopes of repopulating the Earth, as well as blinding Demoman again when he curses the Announcer. When Engineer kills the rest of the RED team to free them from their torture, the Announcer reveals that she never eradicated humanity, making Engineer's efforts for nothing and emotionally destroying him one more time.
• Funny Moments: Probably the only humorous moment in the story, Heavy's reaction when the Announcer tells them that she can provide them with a woman.
  Heavy: Ve are not interested. Doktor and I do not need voman.
  • Earlier, Engineer mentions that Heavy and Medic were once fused into a single, two-headed being by the Announcer in an attempt to torture them. It didn't work.
• Squick: Bucketloads of this. Not only Spy and his constant mutations, but there's a swamp of menstrual blood and a river of vomit. Then it gets worse.
